(DANGER: DARK) “DARKNESS.” The word that is more than enough for Marie to know and realize everything about the fault that became her weakness. The very reason that her life turns into a burden, but still it is all under HIS plan and written script that they needed to play. “For JK to not get a hold of you. Farah sacrifices her soul and gave me this vessel of hers. To protect you and make sure that you will stay dormant with the false identity and ability that will keep you at bay until you are stable. Which is this time.” “Since that day, you aren’t Farah that I once knew. Right, Haruna.” Haruna smiles at the face of Farah. Proud, but not that deep that now Marie finally understands everything and remembers the past from this last loop. Quickly and less agonizingly. “To make things fall to where they should be, things are needed to be done from the multiple futures that one might choose to have the chain of events. Yet, it will always fall to the part

(THE PERFECT ONE) “THE perfect one.” Nate could only clench his hands into a tight fists. While he couldn’t dare to say a word, nor argue anymore with Haruna. All after what she just said to him and the truth that they are all approaching the end. “We both may be the offspring of the prominent ones in our respective world and book, but only one of us is the perfect one.” Haruna suddenly whispers. Holding back her emotions to draw that certain regret and pain not towards Haru, but all to herself. A fact that Nate is never dumb to not read and recognize, yet he chooses to stay silent regardless of things. “Born with the same fate and identity, but in different gender is considered to be taboo. A fact that the sinner is me and not him. The imperfect offspring that couldn’t even summon that pure black flame that is the mark of both our parent’s abilities. The very reason for my choices and fate from the past loop.” A bit of reminiscing about it all. A part

(ALTER) “AS YOU WISH, HARU.” Jeffrey’s reply and an immediate one. Asking for nothing, but simply comply to what Haru wanted by just the look of his eyes. “Tsk! How long has it been?” He asks himself. Thinking of the day and the past when he meets him. The boy with the identity of his guardian mortal in this world and book, but is very different than what he expects from him. The day and the moment that he remembers everything of the past six loops. “YOU ARE THE HOLDER OF ELEMENT OF EARTH. WITH THE GUARDIAN GOD TAURUS.” The words and the repeating title that everyone around him are saying. With all of his life that is centered to the fact that he is special. The direct line of the holder of earth from guardian god Taurus. The pride and face of the clan of the Salvatore. “Just who is the one that I need to protect and forever have to make sure that she is safe?” The thought about the identity of the Maiden that all his life is one big puzzle for

(A PAIR OF BOTH CRIMSON AND PURPLE EYES) HAIR is a mix of crimson and purple hue, standing out more than anything and anyone anywhere that he will go and wanted to go. Eyes that resembles the night sky and at the same time the auburn burn of the dawn. Uncanny beauty, resembling the most important maiden and at the same time drawing the aura of the most powerful flame holder. He who is currently didn’t conceal his appearance, no, he deliberately did so know that the one that he is about to face is someone more than aware of the truth and the world. “Tsk!” he smirks, being called and now facing the guardian that the identity that he took and stole is the one he needed to look after. “Finally, Haru.” “Enthusiastic? Tsk! Not a bit the same feelings towards you, Jeffrey.” “Then, shall we start the duel?” “Duel? If we will, I might end up killing you.” Haru’s confidence, no, the truth that for who he is, he can easily kill Jeffrey in one swoop of

(PLAYING TRUTH) THE clock is ticking, the seconds are passing and fast. In between the silence and the intriguing truth that they all wanted to know. A pentagram suddenly appears, the spell of doors is open and their awaited guests have arrived. "Where is she?” The immediate question that Farah asks is. Not because it is the standard thought that anyone would say and inquire when things like this. But her little way of hostility knowing that Haru is having the same mutual feelings towards her. “You do not have to worry she is safe and secure.” Haru then pointed his finger in the direction where Marie is all sound asleep. Enough for Farah to understand the entire situation and the questions that needed to be answered and fast. “Let’s make it quick, shall we?” “Tsk! Very well. But it will all depends on how honest, no, on how willing are you to answer my questions.” A challenge that neither of them needed to further explain to one other. Havin
