After hearing the truth, Crystal ran out of the room and ran to the palace garden. She was crying and just stood there, not knowing what she was feeling. She had reasons why she was happy and unhappy.

The reason she was happy was that she finally knew who her half had been and could finally live together with her father. The reason she was unhappy, was because she found out that the person she had been raised against...was her half. She stared at her hands and lit up her powers. She got a flash of when she was causing troubles around the city with the group and would always face off against Lloyd. She would always use her powers to defeat him, and now she realized, she was using the powers she inherited against...her own father..

Her legs were getting weaker as she was thinking about everything and was trying to process everything. She soon fell...almost his the ground. Once she realized her legs weren't touching the ground, she figured someone caught her.

"Leave me alone!!I don't need you,green dork!!" Crystal shouted.

"Please don't call our father that." A voice said.

"Just get away from me green-..wait...what?Father?" Crystal asked and looked up to see that it was not Lloyd who caught her, it was her brother.

"He is our father." Haru replied and Crystal pushed him off.

"What are you doing here?!" Crystal asked as she looked away.

"We're worried about you.After you ran away,mom has been worried about you." Haru told her.

"Do I look like I care?!She left me in the first pla-" Crystal said but Haru cut her off.

"She already explained everything she did,Crystal!Look,I know it is hard to accept everything,especially...knowing who your half is.And believe me,I know what it feels like!We both have gone through the same thing.You have never felt love from a father and I have never felt love from a mother." Haru said.

"But you weren't raised to go against your other half that you never knew about!You always have those love around you and was never told about your place you never even wanted to be in!What about me?!I was raised to against my half,I barely have so much love around me,and I was always told about my place!And you were able to be yourself without anyone getting in the way,I'm on the other hand always have so many people around me,telling me about my future and who I should be!" Crystal complained.

"You think some of those only happened to you?" Haru asked as he stood next to Crystal.

"You think all I wanted was to be an Emperor?" Haru asked.

Crystal just sighed and looked away.

"Look on the bright side,sis.At least you got to go around the city,exploring every corner.While I,I always had to stay inside the palace for my safety.I always wished I could go around,explore every corner of the city.But I never got the chance,dad and I knew that it was best if I stay inside the palace to be safe." Haru said.

Crystal said nothing and just looked away.

"We can never have everything we want,but we musn't forget that we at least have something.I at least,..always had a father,and you at least,..always had a mother.And now,we get to have both our parents.And..we are a family once again.There may be lots of things that we always want,but we have to understand that we can't have everything we want.And what we've been through..is all in the past.There is no way to change it,but we can change the future.Together." Haru said.

Crystal was silent, she had no clue what to say. Everything was completely silent,..until..

"Your brother is right,Crystal." A voice female said and the two siblings turned around to see their parents standing behind them.
