A women shouted "That's it!" She was waving her arms forward. The women had pure white hair, put into two pigtails, on her forehead she had antlers, but her antlers were colorful. At ends of her antlers, it was dark blue as it went down it became light, a light shade of teal.

Her skin wasn't a normal color, just like that person that saved him. Her skin was purple, a very light shade of purple. She had a brown, dirty cloak. It was a very old one, it had ripped holes in it. Underneath the cloak, she had a white leather shirt, it covered her arms. She had black shorts, but her feet wasn't normal. They were deers feet.

A white huge dragon flew right down to the deer lady. The dragon had red tips on their spikes, their was red flowers sticking out of the dragon chest. It was a beautiful creature, but also terrifying.

"Woohoo!" The lady cheers, "That was brilliant! Jeez, Kyouko lucky to have you." The dragon only stared down at her.

Vincent wasn't near the dragon, nor the lady. He was watching from afar, from the bedroom window. It was strange, Vincent thought.

Vincent never knew there was another planet filled with creatures, people with powers, kings and queens. As Vincent kept staring at the window, a knock was heard on his door. "Oh, um, yes?" He turns towards the door.

A women had gray hair, it was in a neat braids, and high up for a ponytail. Her skin was bronze, she was wearing a knights outfit. On her left hip, she was carrying a sword. "My name is Xiomara, I'm here to take you to Truthful Court."

Vincent stood up quickly, stuttering. "Court?" He says, Xiomara nodded. "Enough talk, we must leave. Our queen doesn't like being us being late." She then faces away from Vincent, and walked off. Vincent followed her behind.

His heart racing, faster than ever. "Your not in trouble." Xiomara says, slightly calming Vincent down. "Then why am I going to court?" He asked, "Kyouko wanted a chat, remember." She replies.

"I didn't think I would have to court." Vincent said.

"The queen wanted everyone to watch you, incase you are a danger to Cuelum Elysian, but if you are then we will have to put you in jail, or kill you." She added. Vincent walks besides her, "I'm not dangerous, I swear." He begins, Xiomara didn't look at him, or glance. She kept facing forward.

"Li-listen, I didn't mean no harm. I was-" He was cut off by Xiomara. "Save it for court, we will see if your lying or not." As Vincent walked to defend himself, he kept quiet.

Vincent knew he didn't do anything wrong, he wasn't dangerous.

"Before we begin, he must take the truth. Seiko, will you?" A guy said. He was way higher than anybody else, he could see anything and everyone. The court was packed with people, they even had balconies for a higher view, knights were everywhere. They had their swords out. The King and Queen was sitting together, along with a girl. Who Vincent never met.

The lady, who was called Seiko walked towards Vincent. He stood there, awkwardly and stiff. He watched her coming closer to him.

Seiko looked like Kyouko, but a older. Her wrinkles were shown mainly on her forehead, her skin was a saggy. She had black hair, some parts were white.

She was holding a small bottle, it was a shape as a diamond. It was glowing blue, just like the color of a diamond. Even the cap was a crystal.

'This world must be crazy rich.' Vincent thought. Kyouko also walked towards him. Seiko opened the potion, slowly handing it towards Vincent. The blue smoke flew flew out of the potion.

Vincent moves the potion towards his nose, giving a sniff. It smelt like nothing, but he felt a sting inside his nose after.

"Before you drink, it will burn for a while." Seiko said, her voice was raspy. It sounded dry, dry like a desert. Vincent drank the potion. A deep burn went down his throat. "Goodbye sister, thank you for your help." Kyouko says to Seiko, handing her $3000, Seiko didn't reply, only taking the money.

Vincent fell into his knees, he started to cough and cough. Seiko stares at him, then walked away. Vincent eyes weren't light brown anymore, instead it was pure light blue. Kyouko then head back to her seat. Vincent stopped coughing, only to be on his knees.

He was still, like frozen ice.

The guy started to ask questions, "Who are you really, Vincent?"

"My full name is Vincent Hermenegildo. I'm 16 years old, my birthday is December 24." He replies, "Where are you from?" The guy asked.

"I'm from Hardersfield."

"We already know the story of how you ended up here, but tell me. Do you have any powers, magic?"

"No." Vincent simply answered, "None, I am just a human."

"Do you work with Zion or know him?" The guy said, the cowards started whispering and chatting, "Zion?" Someone whispered, "What happens if he does work with him?"

"What if it's his son?" Another one whispered, many of the cowards were asking questions. "Silent!" The whispered faded away.

Everyone stared at Vincent, waiting for his answer.

"No, never heard of him."
