The moons once again has appeared into our beautiful night sky. Many stars are brightening up the world. Upon many things in this world. The things I find myself being attracted to is the night.
The second moon in this world. Is the same coulour as the girl who appeared in my dreams often. The girl named Aishia, though she doesn't have a name, I myself chose this name for her.
As the spring is there the moon is most visible and most beautiful. Her name represent the moon just as mine but indirectly. She represent the bright child that I once was. The feeling called joyful or happiness, I wonder will I ever find that expressions again.
At first I cried, I cried because I missed people. I missed my loved once. For I have lost every important individuals in life. My sister, my childhood friends, my second parents, my family. I had seen everyone left me, their blood dropping on the carpet floor. It flowed into the stream where it was inevitably washed by the water current. I guess that is the reason why I am so closed off.
I always wear a mask to protect myself and others. But I wonder will I ever feel the same way again. I guess only time will tell. But did Tsubaki feel the same way I did or did she feel a different way. I wonder will I ever see them again or will I inevitably form a new peace, a new family, or will I fall to darkness inside.
And as I slept in slumber the same girls from my dreams also appeared. This right before she saw me, I was suddenly embraced by her warmth. For a moment I was as if I was hugging all the most important people I have ever met. The scent, the sensation, the appearance were all connected to them. The words suddenly flowed through her mouth.
"Oh my dear, you are alone!" Her expression was of someone who was extremely worried.
"Huh!" I said.
"You are not alone, I will always be with you. You have your friends who likes and would also support you. Even if they would be killed they wouldn't hesitate in get involved."
"I don't about that one."
"They will but I have something to tell you." Said she.
"Do you remember the girls that lived with you back when you ever living in Japan."
"Do you mean Mary?"
"Yes, she also reincarnated but she needs to be saved."
"What, where is she. I need to go right now!" I had said all this while trying to pack and save her."
"If you do right, she will be killed, I know it hard but you need to wait until the time is right."She said this while looking like a robot, there wasn't anything such as emotion nor expression on her face. So this is how I know in front of people.
"Then when is the right time." I asked.
"The moment you choose to leave the school. So you have 552 days until you can go and save her." Said she.
"But why can't I go and save her at this moment." I asked in a tone felled with sorrow and regret.
"Because if you go you and her would be killed. Right now the darkness that covers the Star kingdom is too great." She said.
"In about a year I will surely save her." I said while smiling.
"Yes, it seems you have regained your emotions, but still use your mask, because there are people who uses the emotion to manipulates others."
"Sure."
Suddenly I felt my body rising.
"Ah... I guess that was a dream all along."
Part 2: Tsubaki's perspective:
At first I cried, I cried because I missed people. I shed tears, because I miss everyone. I agonizing feeling of being alone. The feeling of knowing that you are the only last person of your kind. The feeling of being raised by entirely different people. This were more and more reason for me to cry. Then I released it was reflex of the human mature not logic.
The first meeting with Rial, brought about a different feeling. A feeling I wasn't familiar with. The feeling when you first meet someone but you feel as though you'e known them your entire life. I wonder does he like me, does he hate me. Eventually I will learn from him, we have the whole year to get to know each other.
Suddenly a familiar number texted me.
"Hey... do you have a partner yet." Ichika texted.
"Not yet." Said I.
"Wanna team-up." She texted.
"Absolutely not." I answered.
"What is with this harsh tone of yours." She said while smiling at the end of her screen.
"Nothing I just don't want to play into trouble I am not ready for.'
"Okay then can you get me with the boy you spoke to at the party."
"Do you mean Lee?" I asked while knowing the actual person she was referring to.
"No I mean the boy you said you are from the same kingdom." She said.
"So you mean Rial." I asked her.
"Is that his name?"
"Yeah." Though she said that, I could sense the intention she was bringing was not good. "So tell me, what is your actual goal with him."
"Nothing, I just wanna know the citizen of my best friend's country."
"Hmm... I knew if I kept arguing it wouldn't lead anywhere. I just had to take the chance that he might find out."
"Yeyyy" she screamed from the phone.
"Well let meet tomorrow."
"Sure.'
Rial perspective:
The next day the word :will you be my partner, will be the most common word use this far. The reason is more or less simple. Because the exams are getting near so they know they have to get partners asap.
Now the sun has risen, I am on my way to school. But all that peaceful moment vanished a moment Christina noticed me.
"Hey long time no see."Said she.
"It hasn't even been 3 days since we last spoke."
"But until now we used to talk everyday right." She said.
"Can you blame I was working the entire time so we couldn't speak and now I am still working."
"Okay I will let you off the hook this time."
The way to the school isn't long but walking with her felt as if that I was walking with a snail. And as we approached the front of school, I sensed the sinister feeling of being watched.
We walked through the hallways where other students were passing by. All the students were upper year, lower year or sophomore. We were in the lower year but for some odd reason there was a lower grade beneath us. The grades were divided up like this:
Grade 1
Grade 2
Grade 3
And grade 4.
As I continued walking through the hallways, I locked eyes with some girl. The girl had blonde hair, blue eyes and slim features. Without a doubt she was what some people would say beautiful to the first time they saw her.
But then why did she looked straight at me.
No wait.
She glared directly at me, it wasn't even a glare of kindness nor goodness. It was a glare of pure hatred. But why is that?
I can confidently say I had never met her in my life. While maybe she was looking at someone but I got in the way of her view. That would make sense since she would be pissed off.
She was also going with a rather large dude with large muscles.
"Hey Rial," suddenly a voice from behind called out to me.
"Oh... hey Ichika."
"So you did remember my name. I guess I have to pay Tsubaki her money since we made a bit."
"A bit, about what?"
"That you couldn't remember my name."
"Well... seems like I did."
Her tone was much of a little sister kind of vibe.
"What did you want?" I asked.
"Do you have a partner?" She asked. On the contrary I had no reason to reject her but I still wouldn't trust her. Nor give her the chance, I guess I have to lie about this.
"Yeah I made partners with some in Max's class."
"Who is she?" She asked. So she has fallen for the trap.
"How did you know the gender of the person."
"I had the feeling."
"Sorry but she is a he."
"Oh sorry to ruin your time. Bye." Then she left for her class.
Eigi's perspective:
It is the second day of the exam week, only 5 more days left. During this time I have to find some spies in this school. Apparently they are here to expel some of my friends but I won't let that happen even if my life on the line. I am sure I won't hesitate in getting involved.
But then why are they trying to expel them?
It makes no sense whatsoever.
The girl that stared at Rial, could she be one of them. Even though I researched about her database there wasn't anything. Her name was Nanase was it, she was also from class D. The same class as Rui but they are a grade higher.
Anyways let me send the information I got to him. I graded my phone and started typing in random numbers. The phone started ringing meaning that the call went through. He answered on the fourth ring.
//"Hey Eigi."//
//"Yeah."// I said.
//"You got any information for me."//
//"Yeah, about the girl you saw and described." //
//"Her huh... was there any data about her." //
//"No there wasn't a single file about her." //
//"Just as I thought."//
//"I did learn that her name is Tsubasa Nanase. She is from a distant Kingdom near the Star kingdom. But surprisingly she lived in the Moon kingdom her entire life." //
//"I am impressed but how did you get all this information from." //
//"I did some asking with the king and he did those answers for me." //
//"So he chose to get involved."//
//"Hey can I ask a question?// Eigi suddenly asked.
//"Sure as long as I have the answers." //
//"Why are the spies trying to attack you guys." // He asked sincerely, should I tell him the truth or just lie. Maybe it's time I spoke the truth.
//"It is complicated but someone is trying to ruin it because we kinda ruin her plans so I guess this is payback." //
//''It's so."//
//"Yes and goodnight and to you too Ai."//
Just after that he hung up, how did he know that Ai was in my room.
"Maybe he just knew I would be here."
"Or is he watching us with the pure eyes." Said I.
"I highly doubt that." AI responded.
"Well there is no arguing about it now, let's just sleep."
"Sure."
Rial perspective: Ruby chronicles
Ruby is a strange girl, despite being the first girl Max dated, she is the only one who couldn't understand him the most. As I sat on my bed, trying to read a book I had got from the library. I reached a chapter where the main couple must break up due to a misunderstanding. The scene felt familiar, it felt the same as Max and Ruby's break up.
Now that I think about it that was the first time I ever saw Max, and in a way we ever both similar.
Our way of thinking, talking, viewing or working. These were qualities we refined to the fullest.
And as I sat there finishing the book, an unknown number asked to meet with her. The text came Ruby. I don't want to go but the edge to look at her just gave me more reasons to see her.
//"Coming."// was the message I sent.
I grabbed a jacket and started walking to the location. The weather was nice but the warm air flowing in the sky and the cold season both crushed. She was by the fountain near the lake.
"It is a nice looking moon huh." I said as I approached her.
"It sure is." She replied.
"So what did you bring me here for."
"Straight to the question huh. Didn't even waste time." She said.
"Sorry but I like to keep things fast and smooth." I replied.
"So what is going on with you and Max?"
"Nothing in particular."
"Is he doing okay."
"I think you should invite him here since you are just going to mention him the whole time."
"No," Suddenly the atmosphere around us changed into a sorrowful like atmosphere.
Ruby's perspective:
At first I was happy. I felt joy, the blissful moment I had with him. We went on dates, walked through the snow, went to festivals. Deep in my head, I knew him, even though I knew he never had any feelings towards me. But even so I loved him with all the being. Loving him was good enough for me, even if he didn't. I made myself to be the best girlfriend that existed. But that all went to dust, the moment I heard those words.
"I am breaking up with you."
At that moment I felt as though he had personally cut off my heart. Those words hurt me like no weapon did nor any weapon would. The scar left there is so great that I can't heal it any more. Even if he hates me I don't care I just want him to be happy. That was my last wish, and I intended to keep it.
"Will go back to him if you get the chance yourself." Rial asked while looking straight at me.
"Of course I would." I replied gently.
"While I am not the one to decide, honestly I think you should move on." Even though the words sounded harsh, there was more to it than that. It was as if he was trying to warn me of something.
"And what do you know about it?" I said.
"It is true that I had never felt the emotion called love. But after researching with friends. I have come to find out that, love can heal, it can protect. But most of all it can break a person no matter how strong you are. Love can break you to a point where you can't be healed anymore." He said.
"So you can feel but you choose not to."
"I don't know what you are talking about."
"Well... nice talking to you but I have to go." Then I left.
Rial's perspective:
Everything went good so far. Now let's see how she can impact in his life.
