"Y-Y/N?" My 'father' said. "Hello..." I said. "W-What are you d-doing here?" He stuttered out. "Well... I'll just get to the point. I need some answers, dad... or should I say... Uncle Macon..." I said, my voice low and it's obvious how much anger I'm holding in.

-Answers-

Y/N P.O.V

I can see his eyes visibly widened when I called him Uncle. I just scoff and move passed him. I head to the living room. Then I take a seat on one of the couches.

"Why did you call me uncle, Y/N? I'm your father" he said, walking into the room. "I don't know what to believe anymore. Now it makes sense... Lena never called you dad. She never called you mother either" I said, turning to the woman I thought was my mom.

"You lied to me, you're not my parents. You're my uncle and aunt..." I said, tears brimming in my eyes. He walks towards me and kneels down in front of me.

"Honey... I don't know what you're talking about. I am your father" he said. "Liar!!" I scream. He flinch at my sudden outburst. But I just ignore that and keep my stare hard and cold.

"Tell me the truth, uncle... or I'll find out about it on my own. Who's my real parents?? WHY did you lie to me!! What else have you kept from me? I deserve to know the truth!! Are any of what I grew up with real... or all my life have just been a lie?" I said. Tears streams down my cheeks.

"I need to know the truth..." I pleaded. I don't even try to stop the tears. He needs to see how much pain he's putting me through. His eyes soften and he sits next to me.

"Very well... I don't know how you know about these things. But it seems like I couldn't hide it anymore" he said. I just stay silent as I wait for him to start telling me the truth.

"Your mother is Sarafine. She's the most powerful Dark Caster now. We told you to stay away from home because we need to keep you safe from her. She will stop at nothing... she believe you will be one of them... that you will be a Catalyst..." he said. "So let me get this straight. Are you saying that I'm going to go dark no matter what?" I said. "No! Of course not... you're a Natural, Y/N..." he said.

"How can you be so sure about that... aren't Ridley and Lena the same as me? They were the nicest people I've ever known for as long as I've lived. But now Ridley turned into a Dark Caster and Lena a half... they STILL got claimed by the Dark. How are you so sure that I won't end up like them??" I said, looking at him in desperation. I'm scared... I don't wanna go dark. I'll ended up hurting my friends. The people I've grown fond of.

"Y/N... there are things that we don't know. But I believe, Y/N... I BELIEVE that you'll be Light. You have Merlin blood in your vein... Merlin is a Light Wizard... so there's no way you're going to turn into a Dark Caster..." he said. "You can't be so sure about something you have no control of, Uncle. Merlin comes AFTER us. Which means WE are the ones with full control. There are no guarantee that I'll be a Light Caster just because I'm Merlin's reincarnation. It's NOT that simple!" I said. "Y/N... just listen to me..." he said.

"No! YOU listen to me!! I'm scared okay?? All my life I thought... I thought that I'll be able to decide things on my own... but now I can see everything as clear as the daylight itself. I DON'T have a choice! The last thing I want is to turn into a Dark Caster and hurt people I've grown to love! But I can't control it!! Now I just find out that all my life have been a lie! You and Auntie, the two people I thought are my parents. Even YOU lied about it?? I... I don't know anymore" I cried out. I turn around and run out of the house.

I keep running and running, not stopping even for a second. I slow to a stop and realize where I am. It's the place Lena and I used to hang around when we were kids.

I choke a sob as I kneel down on the grass

I choke a sob as I kneel down on the grass. I let out a scream of frustration and curl up in a ball. I burst in tears and cry harder.

Soon exhaustion starts to come. I let myself fall to my side, still curled into a ball. I hug myself as an attempt to calm down. But all the pain... all the build up emotion is too much to control. I broke down completely right then and there. Until exhaustion got the best of me and I drift off to sleep.

A Few Hours Later

I open my eyes, realizing I'm still in the same spot. I sit up and lean my back against the tree behind me. I stare into the water as memories of my childhood with Lena came running back in my head. All those happy time... when everything is still okay.

Flashback

I was 10... Lena was 15. It was a year before she'll go through the claiming. She wants to hang out with me more, she said she wants to savor the moment before it all come to an end.

"Lena!! Wait for me! My little feet isn't as fast as yours!!" I yelled. She just laugh and run faster. I let out a groan and try to keep up with her. I can hear her laugh. "You're just a slowpoke!!" She yelled back, while keep running ahead of me. "Lena!!!" I whined.

I didn't see there's a root sticking out from the ground. This makes me tripped and fall down. "Ouch!!" I wailed. Lena instantly stopped running and turn to me.

"Y/N!" She yelled. She turned around and ran back to me. She kneels down in front of me. "Oh... you're okay, Y/N... it's just a scratch... come on... get on my back..." she said, turning around. I get on her back and she stands up. We come across the lake and she set me down on a rock.

She grabbed a leaf and scoop up some water. Then she walked towards me. She poured the water onto my wound. I winced in pain.

"Sorry... but it need to be done or your wound will get infected..." she said. She grab her backpack and take out the first aid kit. She begin to tend to my wound. I bit my lips, trying to stop myself from letting out a pained cry.

She bandage my wound and smile at me. "There... all done. You're such a brave girl, sis..." she said. She sits down next to me and wraps an arm around my shoulder. I just giggle and hug her back.

She's the best sister I could ever ask for

End of Flashback

"Lena... I miss you... I miss us... I miss the time we spend together when everything was alright" I cried out. I pull my knees close to my chest and cry softly. My eyes will get swollen after this, but I don't care. I've been holding it all in for far too long. I need to let it out or I'm going to lose my mind.
