Fly Until You See The Light

Eden (3) - Chapter 5

Sentinekka doesn't say anything. She came in the Eden for nothing. She won't be able to help the King, she won't be able to set Ojtaro free from his prison, she won't be aable to show everyone that Love, Light and Darkness can live together... Everything was useless and now she stands still in the void of the memory, while hoping for some sign that will help her find a solution.

There's a solution to every problem, that's what her village and her people teached her. They told her that mistakes make you stronger, that you mustn't give up on anything, that the people of everyday will be able to open something in you... But she feels like those words were lies. Why does she feel that? She shouldn't, her village would never lie about something so serious.

She just isn't in a good situation, and blaming her village is surely not a solution. It's not even her village's fault, they all were right. Sentinekka only needs to calm down and to keep the hope next to her. Hope and determination are her best friends... And Symphony and Orlando too, obviously, while Oj' is more than a simple best friend, but this is not the real topic anyways!

She believes that the memory is finished, but she's still in the dark. How's that possible? The King said that she would have been in the void only to see the memory... Maybe there's something more?

The vision of the dead Ruler disappeared in the meanwhile. In that Darkness there's just Sentinekka, no one else.

Until...

She hears someone crying right behind her. That someone has a so much familiar voice, a male voice. Someone that she already heard crying not many times, after all.

Ojtaro?!

Sentinekka instantly turns around, but the person she's seeing is just another vision. But why? Why is he crying like that?

She can't just look straight at him. It may be a vision, something that is happening right now, but she feels guilty and sorry for him. He looks in total despair, he's kneeling in front of her with his head lowered and with the tears falling from his beautiful white and dark eyes.

The girl sits in front of him and takes both of his hands. He's not reacting, he can't feel her near. She hates seeing him like this. She hates seeing the people she loves like this, it's painful as a punch in the face.

«I don't know if you can really hear me but I hope you can, Oj'» she sighs and says this to give him a hand. «Everything will get fixed. I'll come back, I promise, and I'll do whatever I can to give you what you deserve. Just hold on...».

No, he can't hear her... But she feels like he did, no matter the things that are happening now. She smiles and stands up. Did the King want to show her this? Or did this vision just appear as a sign from the destiny, or from the Gods, or even from the Elders? She hopes it's a sign, a sign that tells her that she and Ojtaro are meant to stay together.

Yes, they are born to be with each other. She'll come back, after solving this whole conflict.

She'd love to say something more, but the Darkness fades away and she slowly returns in the temple.

Right in front of her, the King is looking at her with a peaceful and quiet face. He's probably waiting for some reaction, but Sentinekka doesn't think that he knows what happened in the crystal's memory. Should she tell him about the vision of her sweet Ojtaro crying as there was no end in his suffering? She probably should, because the King surely knows how to help her anyways.
