Katrina's POV-
Well, last but not least, me. I already know what's coming, and I'm not ready for it. I haven't seen her in years. My mother left shortly before my siblings and father died, and I haven't seen her since. I never thought I would even see her again, but now? I'm nervous for it, I can't lie. The others looked back at me with concern when they saw how nervous I was. "Are you okay? What are you scared about?" Dawn asked, rubbing my back. "My mother is the last one. My mother is going to be the one in charge of my trial, and I haven't seen her in years. I don't even know how I'm supposed to react to all this." I admitted to all of them. The others looked back at me, with both concern and understanding. Some of them can never see their parents again, others don't know where they are now, and those who are left never want to see them again. There's a lot of familial issues within our group, both minor and major. What kind of trial awaits me? My Mimicry power can mimic the rest, so I have no idea what I'm even going to be up against. There are so many possibilities, and I can't see any of then. I look back at them, seeing their Kokana Modes. They seem stronger than before, so I'm hoping for the best for my trial.

Charloette's POV-
"My daughter, it's been so long. I'm glad to see you're alive. To address the rest of you, I am Charloette of Beauty, the leader of the Forbidden Holders. It is grand to gaze upon you all for the first time." I said to them. Before I could continue to speak, my daughter interrupted me. "Why did you leave me? Why did you leave us all to die? What was so important that you would abandon all of us for your own sake?" She asked. Tears started to drip down her face as she seemed to be forcefully holding herself back. "Kitty, I'm afraid there's no simple answer to that question. I was forced to unwillingly, I wouldn't have done it if I knew that it would kill off almost all of my family." I answered back to her. "He knows my name mom, you may as well use it, they all deserve to know it." She said to me, seemingly angry and upset. "Alright, Katrina, you already know that your trial will not be simple by any means, nor predictable, however, you must face it nonetheless." I explained to them, this time using her real name. Everyone but Dawn and I looked back at her in shock. It appears he was the only one she had told about it. Considering how close the two of them are, I can't say I'm surprised about it. She hesitated slightly, then stepped into the void I had prepared for her all this time.

Third Person POV-
She was alone again, just like before. Left out on the streets, with nowhere to call home. She couldn't go back home, or else she could figure out about her. She didn't want her to know that she was still alive. After all, she preferred living over dying. This wasn't a physical fight against a person, nor was it a mental fight against herself. What was standing before her was a fight for her own survival. She was losing. People seemed to pass her by, just like usual. She remembered being this lonely before she had met the Elementals, but she never thought she would have to experience it ever again. Now, it was back, and it was worse than ever. She hated being alone, with no one to care about her, and no one to care about. If she had to survive in this cruel world all by herself, what would she do? How was she supposed to love someone when she couldn't even love herself anymore. Her past would never let her, as she had watched them all die in front of her, without being able to do anything about it. She wanted to save them so desperately, but there was nothing she could have done. She was always weak. That was, until she had joined them. From joining them, she had felt whole for the first time since her family had been murdered. She had people to call family once again, and she refused to lose them.

Katrina's POV-
It was the hibiscus flower that had bloomed for me all those years ago. It had come back to save me once again. I wouldn't be alone anymore, and neither were they. That's what I had always been afraid of, being alone again. So I took the path that the hibiscus had beckoned me towards. The walk in the forest was as mystical and magical as it had been when I had arrived there before. It was calming, watching the leaves slowly fall to the ground. I enjoyed watching the moon hang onto its string, turning phases until it felt satisfied. Then, it was him. It was all of them. But this time, it was different. They were all out there to greet me, to welcome me there. But, why? Why were they so inclined to help me? It made sense in my head. They don't care that I wasn't able to act back then, to save my family. What matters now is the life I live with all of them, and our singular objective. All that matters now is stopping the Masterminds. I hope we can live peacefully together after that. I'm not sure if we'll survive, but I can dream on forever. No matter what happens, I'll always see their faces smiling back at me. I see that because I love them so much, and they love me just the same. None of us want each other to suffer, and we will make sure of that, together.
