"Hiltonia Station, Central Stations"
Rin was about to take her train route the Downtown, she entered the crowded train. Like a young at her age, she carrying a backpack and holds her phone looking at an address that was given to her.
"Bohemia Road, Vanilla Cluster. Syira surely lived far.."
It turns out she was about to meet Syira. She goes to far place without Takaya even knowing
The train starts to move, it begins her journey to the Hiltonia Downtown that she never been there before. Not long after someone pulls her jacket and she quickly notice and look to his right side,
"You can sit here if you want…" is a young man offering his seat for her,
"Ah no it's okay-"
"No, no I'm about to take off the train in the next station, (he rises)"
"Oh.. thanks" she smiled and she sits at the seat the man offered her,
"Sure!" He smiled and left her.
Rin waving her hand to the man, and continued to see her phone, she text Syira she is on her way,
"You traveled so far."
A girl beside her talks to her,
"Ah.. yeah.. I'm visiting my family."
She looked at the girl and was stunned by her beauty, a young girl with light purple hair, twin tailed curly hair, and sleepy eyes.
"Umm are you an Idol?"
"What is 'an Idol' ?"
Rin weird out by her reaction,
"Umm an artist, usually grouping as 3 or more girls singing on a live stage…"
"Hmmm.. is the first time I heard that word…"
"Really? Because you look like one, and you will be really popular if you do an Idol stuff you know… and people will idolize you for your beauty…"
The girl look at the roof of the train,
"Hmmm… Idol… I see…"
Rin even weirded after looking at her,
"Are you not from Hiltonia?"
"I'm for afar… Not even you can imagine…"
"Oh… I see… I'm sure you are not too familiar with this place yet… where do you want to go?"
"Heroes Grave. A place where the dead one lay from war. Someone is telling me to go there."
"Umm what for?"
She look at the window,
"It says 'I want to see my brother's grave.'"
"Oh… Umm, you better take another trip for the next 3 stations and you find yourself a way to the grave. The place is in the middle of the town. You might ask again there. People will show you the way.. "
"I see.. Thank you…"
"Yeah, my pleasure…. By the way, what is your name??"
The girl looked at Rin directly with her humble face,
"Name…. Mana Kamiya…"
"Ohh nice to meet you Mana, my name is Rin Takahashi, you can call me Rin." She gave her a hand to shake, and Mana reached her hand,
"Nice to meet you, Rin."
Once they shake hands, Rin suddenly freezing because,
"Goshhh….. your hand is cold. You're holding ice or something???"
"No…."
Rin is more weirded and she lets go of Mana's hand.
"Takahashi… are you Vanny's family?"
"Yeah! Do you know my sister?"
"Yeah. She is the commander. We met once…"
Rin widely smiled,
"Woowww, I'm surprised, on what occasion?"
Mana look at her,
"Sorry, I can't tell you yet."
Rin is surprised that Mana couldn't tell her what she is doing with her sister. But Rin kept smiling.
"Hmmm, my sister is all about secrets. But that's why I really liked her. You know, me and my sister often had a same thoughts and we really a good team for convincing my stubborn brother."
"Takaya Takahashi…"
Rin even surprised hearing Takaya's name,
"You even know my brother's name?! Oh my… Damn…. both of them are so popular…"
"I know.. because he is the current prince."
"What…"
Rin suddenly fell asleep after hearing Mana talks about the prince.
"You body will take some time for adjustment, when you're awake, you will be even more powerful."
The girl stand and walks away from her, she reached the train door when it's about to open,
"We'll meet again, Rin. Use that power to end the cycle of lies." She exits the train and disappears.
-
"X.A.G Academy - Mission Control Room"
Both Takaya and Sanna sitting in front of a big screen with many security cameras displays the area of Ai and Fukushima mission.
"Where are those two….."
"I wish a have a power to go to other dimension."
"In your dream. You cannot even materialize that fork yet." Ai said from the intercom.
"Hey, focus on your sight-seeing of them will you??"
"Wow, wow, what's going on here? Ai you being too hard to her lately" Fukushima interrupted the conversation.
"Fukushima, tell your sister that she needs to calm down a bit." Takaya said.
"And the prince just talk for his mate." Ai jokingly teasing Takaya.
"What? Is there a problem???"
"Huh.. I'm cutting the communication down for a bit. My ears hurt listening to your voice." Ai said.
She cuts the communication and the room becomes silent.
"Don't mean it.. Ai is always like that." Takaya tries to make Sanna calm.
"Hahaha, I know… I won't be mad just because of that."
Takaya took off his headphones and put them on the table. He looked at Sanna still trying to see the surveillance cameras to see any signs of the twins.
"Hey Sanna… I want to ask about Asahi.."
"Go ahead, I'm listening."
Takaya leans on the chair and look up to the ceiling,
"Do you believe Asahi is gone?"
Sanna stops her scrolls on the cameras, she took of her headphones and look at Takaya,
"Honestly, I'm not sure… But I can feel that something is off while we're on the mall yesterday…"
"What about it?"
Sanna pull her chair near Takaya and leans over to his shoulder,
"Imagine, she's looked at with red pupiled eyes, just like your Sister's eyes. And she suddenly attacked Kanna. After I came back I saw her expression was mad. Like she was really disappointed, and her voice was like it was two voices layered together, like she was possessed."
"Does she really look like that?"
"Yeah… somehow I got a feeling that her other self was taking control of her body again. But it looks like it will take her more than the last time. I can't feel her presence."
Takaya raises reaches Sanna's hand, holding it,
"You know, the night before we started the mission at the mall, Vanny, Rin and I were talking about Asahi."
"What is it?"
"Rin accidentally found an envelope from the book that I got from my grandfather, it was a book of our mother's journals. She read it and it contains information that we all never couldn't imagine if it's true."
Sanna holds Takaya's hand tightly,
"It says for 4 of my children. Rin also questioned Vanny about it, she was asking about our unknown family members that possibly Rin and I don't even know exist. Vanny gives us her opinion connected to Asahi's condition that she believes Asahi is actually hiding something from us all.."
Takaya looks at the screen before continuing his word,
"In other words, I have another big sister after Vanny. And if it's true, the person who was inside Asahi, might be my big sister…"
"Wait… You mean you guys not even remember that?"
"I don't personally. And to be frank I was confused. Because my memory becomes fuzzy after trying to remember what happened 5 years ago. All I remember is that I was in a room with a bunch of high technology facilities, and I learned that I was forced to receive my power."
"Several years I distanced myself from my grandfather and XAG. Working together with Vanny and the Elite, created my own Facility The S.V, I got access to XAG hidden files that contain what happened 5 years ago. And I found out that our parents did not die because of the war ."
"I learned that another signature of A.W.P from the Forgotten, it was come from this academy, and it was in the garden. The place where they found Vanny unconscious, and Asahi… It was a different story from what I've been told, and I found out that the Forgotten has aa ability to manipulate memory."
Sanna is surprised to hear that story,
"And, what do you think about that and now?" Sanna ask,
"If my memories are indeed manipulated, there is a possibility that Asahi might be my sister. But all the people that I know close to me also weren't bothered by the fact that Asahi is my sister. Even Bella.. It must've affected all people, like it was well planned."
"You mean that whoever has planned all of this?"
Takaya saddened his face,
"I… don't know.. But if it's real, I couldn't imagine what has caused them…"
"Say, will you believe that Asahi is your sister?"
Takaya tighten his hand to Sanna,
"I… I don't know… I mean.. What must I do? After all this time she hid herself as someone else, and suddenly came back… I want to believe it for sure, but is it too absurd? My relationship with Asahi, my memories will not suddenly just disappear."
"Taka-"
"If only I could remember all of my memories… I am willing to believe it. But now… I don't think so. Even after all of this happened."
Sanna understands his feelings, his confusion and anger we're triggering his anxiety. After he knew everything it was still hard for him to believe what was happening.
"Taka… We'll find the answer eventually… But you don't have to worry about what will happen next. I know it is easy for me to say this… But, I believe you can make it through. You're not alone in this matter. I am also involved in this history of Asahi."
Takaya smiled hearing Sanna trying to cheer him,
"So, what is your answer for my question earlier?"
"I will accept it. And if it's possible, I want to help you find out what is the truth. Fate will never change. And shouldn't ever be changed. If all of this means she wants to change fate then I will stand to fight her and open her eyes."
"Sanna…"
Takaya is once again surprised by her deeply emotional talk about fate.
She let go of his hand, and turned herself facing him directly and looked at his eyes,
"But I will never harm her. She is my friend. And whatever she was to you, you should accept it… Even if you are not ready yet to accept that, I will help you…"
Takaya deeply looked into Sanna's serious eyes, he felt the courage and her compassion toward his problems, no hesitation and fear,
"So.. (Sanna reaches his face and closes her face towards his) like you said before, we will solve it together…"
The emotion between them is deepen, the atmosphere become heavier and heavier each time she move closer to Takaya,
"Sanna… Why are you doing this for me?"
She smiled,
"Because… I love you…"
The two closed their eyes and when their lips touched, they shared their first kiss passionately. deepened the meaning of the kiss and made him sink deeper into their respective feelings. Responding to each other's kisses was very gentle for them, they felt as if all the burdens had been lifted from their bodies. feeling love for the first time and flowing it.
The blushing face, the heart that continued to beat very fast made Sanna suddenly stop the kiss. his body was so weak that it made Takaya very worried.
"Sanna-"
"I'm okay… I was.. It was my first time… So… I'm a bit shocked."
Hearing Sanna's words, Takaya hugged Sanna's warm body tightly. Shared his warmth and made Sanna very calm.
"Thank you Sanna… This is the first time for me as well, to feel this kindness and happiness flowing in my body and mind.. . And I'm glad it was you…"
Takaya kissed Sanna's forehead,
"I love you too Sanna… Thank you…"
