TW// Mention of past violence and murder
Mira is holding Akane in her arms running to the lakes on Vulmone. She comes to a tample. A person is standing there, she turns around.
EIR: Akane?! What happened to her?
MIRA: Her sister attacked her. She's dying you need to help her!
EIR: Put her down.
She lays her down. Eir is starting healing her. She looks at Mira.
EIR: You were also an a assassin, weren't you Mira?
MIRA: How do you know my name?
EIR: I saw it through water. It was also how I looked after Akane, but I don't know why I couldn't see her now.
MIRA: Is she going to be okay?
Eir frowns.
EIR: I hope... That boy – Sei. He is half Vulmone.
MIRA: What? Really?
Eir nods, concentrating on the wound.
EIR: His mother was a Vulmone, she was one of the best assassins here, but she didn't want to be here. She came on Ceanus and married a Ceanuses.
MIRA: What happened to them?
Eir closes her eyes and nods off.
EIR: Akane was forced to kill them. It was part of her training – the first kill she had to make. After she killed them she came to me. She didn't stop crying. I tried to help her, but I couldn't do anything. After that she was forced to kill more people. With every kill she became more ruthless... It killed a part of her.
Mira looks down and frowns.
MIRA: I could understand. It was the same with me.
Taggi is laying on the bed, David is beside him holding his hand.
DAVID: You had to go alone... I should've come with you. What if I lost you?
TAGGI: Thanks to Akane you didn't.
David looks up and sees Taggis eyes slightly opened. He hugs him.
DAVID: Oh thank god you're awake.
TAGGI: Where's Akane?
DAVID: Ummm she got hurt... really badly. Mira took her to Vulmone.
Taggi tries to sit up.
TAGGI: The powers she h-has...
DAVID: Taggi lay down and don't talk that much-
TAGGI: The power... It can s-save her.
DAVID: We will save her, don't worry. You need to rest, I don't want to lose you too.
He lays him down. Taggi smiles and closes his eyes. Hes voice is quiet, only a whisper.
TAGGI: I love you Davy... I wanted y-you to know.
David smiles.
Mira looks at Akane.
MIRA: She changed. She saved Sei and Taggi from death.
EIR: Really, how?
MIRA: Sei's heart stopped beathing and she gave him a drop of Elixir water. And she saved Taggi yesterday. She healed his wound.
EIR: Healed his wound? How did she do that?
MIRA: I don't know, but I saw her when her eyes glowed and-
EIR: What?!
MIRA: We figured out that it has to be connected to her falling in that lake.
EIR: The lake...
She looks at Mira with a smile.
EIR: Thank you Mira.
She picks up Akane and takes her to the big lake.
MIRA: Are you sure that's a good idea?
EIR: The first time she almost died and it was my fault. I can't do nothing and watch her die. If what you're telling me is true, than it just might save her.
She looks at Akane.
EIR: Darling I can't do this without you. You need to be strong and fight it.
She drops her in the lake. Her body starts sinking in. Than the water around Akane starts glowing.
EIR: Mira stand back.
Akane eyes open and they start glowing. She starts lifting up. Eir covers Mira.
EIR: Look out!
Akane burst out of the water, glowing. The purple light exploding, shaking the ground.
EIR: It worked!
