Ivanna worked up. She felt pain in every inch of her body, making her immobalize. She noticed the chains in her hands and her feet, as if she's a prisoner.

"W-what did I do? What the h*ll?" She asked herself but then, constant memories flogged her brain making her shout in pain. The memories of her, agreeing to an agreement of chasing Shane out of the Academy, Meteora's threat, Shane's tortured months and Shane's escaped carried by her.

She remembered now.

She smiled at the thought and laugh. The memory of her, chanting and mispoking the word making Shiro fret in anger but instead fell asleep after she chanted the spell. She remembered how she was scared after she closed her eyes and shut her ears. She still feels the vibe of the Moon changing it color to blue.

She still remembered the guilt she carried for half a year, six years ago. She still remembered how she wanted to die instead of living luxuriously while Shane was surviving in her own.

"Hahaha." She laughed emptily as she gazed on her bruised arm. A large burn scarved on her arm making her remember the plan she had even though she it was all pain. But the plan on letting Shane escaped succeed.

"You did well." A voice said in the darkest corner. Ivanna flinch and looked at the place where the voice came from and was shocked when Shane came out from the darkness.

"Shane..." Ivanna said. Her heart began to race as she smiled at her nervously. "Are you here to kill me?" Ivanna asked without removing her eyesight to Shane.

"Your eye, I'm sorry." Ivanna apologized. She knew her right eye was a fake eye. After all, Shane's eyes were bloody red, but after Meteora pulled her eyeball, the fake eye was now in dire silver.

"You never know how to stopped saying sorry. It's all in the past." Shane said and sat down, leveling herself to Ivanna who's been constantly kneeling.

"It's because I have done such grieve sin. I do not wish to live any longer." Ivanna said smiling at her undertaker. "I wish to die. I know I will still carry my evil deeds to Pladiéa, but atleast I am not alive and living in such extravagance knowing you suffered for six years." Ivanna added.

"I won't kill you. But rather here to take you." Shane said. "I request you to confess your sins and Meteora's sins when my father and the others interrogate you. They will be all present here in your cell. Make sure you confess all. My father will surely be displeased and try to burn and kill your parents, but will take mercy since you confessed the one who's evil. He will declared for your exilement. And when you're out, I will come to you and take you." Shane explained and holds Ivanna's hand.

She then healed her making the pain and numbness go away. "Why are you doing this? You should have kill me." Ivanna asked while looking at Shane. "I do not deserve your mercy." She added.

"A payback for what you did while I was in onward torture." She said smiling. "Thank you." Shane said and disappeared like a fog.

Ivanna stared at the place where Shane kneeled down. Her tears once again rolled on her cheeks as she smiled while crying. She don't deserve the mercy Shane gave her, she do not deserve to live. But Shane, gave her a chance to change and continue to live without guilty lurking in her heart.

In that time, she was able to breathe normally as the heaviness in her heart disappeared. The guilt she was carrying by now, vanished since Shane's appearance came to her. Solely to her.

"Thank you for giving me a chance, Shane." Ivanna said and cried happily.

"His Imperial Majesty, Emperor Ives is entering." The guard shouted, announcing the Emperor's presence. Ivanna braised herself as she was motivated due to Shane.

Without doubt, Ives entered her cell and her parents looking at her with dead eyes. Her heart skipped a beat but smiled at them. "I great your Imperial Majesty—" her greetings was cut when Ives slapped her hard in the check.

"What have you done to my daughter?!" Ives shouted at her making her flinch but she inhaled and relaxes her body before answering Ives who's anger is visible in his face.

When Ives was calm, he grabbed something inside the box and slowly lifted his hand, showing that it was Shiro Yumenaka's head. "Do you know her?" Ives asked at Ivanna.

Ivanna nodded at Ives and started to talk about cause of Shane's disappearance six years ago.

"I am willing to confess everything. I am willing to accept your punishment for I am a sinner." Ivanna said and closed her eyes. "It started when Meteora's obsession for attention gradually increases. She despises Her Imperial Highness for recieving such attention when she was the center of the society." Ivanna started.

"She schemed and schemed resulting multiple students whose injured due to her schemes. She was behind it all when the daughter of the Duke Andrielle's daughter, Duchess Rihanna sudden fight rose up making Shane removed from the Academy. Shiro Yumenaka was the one who suggest that move. Shiro Yumenaka was the hidden Hollowsian. Since Meteora met her at the Forbidden Forest, she was able to infiltrate the Academy since she was once a member of the Sirens, commanders of the Hollow Kingdom."

"After months of Shane's absence in the Academy, Meteora was quiet was enjoying her life again— still keeping contact with Shiro. When the Survival of Fittest begun. Shane outshined her making her obsession rose up again. I didn't know what happened but when I went to the comfort room to follow her, I suddenly saw her hitting Shane's naped using a shovel. It hit perfectly causing Shane's neck twisted and bloodied. I gasped and shouted at her for doing that, but she threatened me."

"What sort of threat did you threaten you?" Ives asked calming himself after learning what was the cause of Shane's disappearance. Even the couple behind him, Ivan And Leinna was groaning in anger.

"She threatened me that she will used all tactics to overthrow me in her place. If I confessed that they were the one who did that, no one will believe me, since the rank between me and Meteora was in a huge gap, everyone would easily believe them more than me. They're two, I am all by myself, so I couldn't do anything but to follow them both, making me a slave." She confessed.

"My poor baby." Ivan whimpered as he looked at his daughter who's looking straight in the eyes with the Emperor.

"After that, They were arguing where to place Shane. But Shiro acquired some hideout throughout the Forbidden Forest."

"But it was a floating forest. No one would ever survived in their since it can nullify your core." Ives asked eyeing Ivanna. Ivanna shrugged and continued her tale. "The truth is, Shiro uses a magic circle that was similar to a teleportation spell. That magic center made us moved in the center of the biggest tree in the Forest." Ivanna explained.

"But if you used that kind of a magic circle since you said it is similar to a teleportation spell, you should be falling down and die." Ives counterasked her again.

"No Your Imperial Majesty, we we're transported inside the the tree. That's why you can't find Shane every inch of this world. The forest erases our presence as it nullifies our magic, making us total invincible." She said with such strong faced making the three shocked. That's why they can't find Shane.
