~The star and the spirit~ (AETHER X VENTI) - MY AU

~PR0L0UGE~ ://Normal?\\:

Normal? 

Why on Earth would the would the most powerful creature on Earth be normal?

Why was she still longing for a normal life? She had everything and could break anyone into fragments. She ordered her world and she made the rules. Why was she still so sad when she had all this power?

Unless she didn't want this power at all. She was pressured by herself to be fearsome, bold and strong, Otherwise what would people think of her? She couldn't be a disappointment...

Atleast again... 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Isaroth was crying on the bed, holding the spirit in her hand. 

"Why has she become so cold towards me these days?" Isaroth said, wiping her tears. She was a God after all. What kind of God cries? That's absolutely pathetic.

"After all.. you wouldn't know anything right..?" Isaroth said with a sad chuckle as she held the spirit in her hand. Isaroth questioned herself why she hadn't let this spirit fly away with  the others, She had felt some sort of connection between them and now decided to adopt the spirit as her son. 

....

Why is it so quiet...? Why are so many questions left unanswered and put to rest? Why wouldn't the spirit know anything? 

What sort of connection did they really have..? 

Isaroth took a pause and tried to predict the future again but... this time.. the future would be very... very.. far away from the present time. Of course, Isaroth had not ascended yet so why would she be able to predict the future for a longer time when her head would spin and whirl together? Why were all the worlds mixed up for her? This universe was really weird. Was  Khaenri'ah actually going to be deceiving the Herrscher of End ?  The most powerful being in existance? Asmoday was just a decoy after all. But Isaroth didn't know that.

All of these swirling questions in her brain came up when she tried to look at the future. She knew she couldn't rebirth or reincarnate again. If she was dead, she was dead for good. Why was looking at the future so hard for her and easy for her wife?

"Ah!" Isaroth let out a gasp of a sweet surprise and smiled with a sad glint in her eye. 

"I'll change your fate my dear... I'll change it.. so you wouldn't ever again be in this spirit form.. and the Primordial one will finally accept you..." 

"I know you are strong... You have that potential.. I will not mind sacrificing someone for you my dear... So make best use for what I will do now..." 

And so Isaroth put the spirit in a crystal ball. God knew how many crystal and fate balls she had. 

-----------------------------------------------

...What happened..? What did Isaroth do to her child...?

She changed the fate. 

She changed everything.

She changed everything, because she was sad. 

Her child would never get happiness now. 

Isaroth thought of telling the Primordial one what she did, but right now she just needed a break. So, she took a quiet nap- holding her child in her hand. Maybe she had dreamt about having a happy family without all of these arguments. All she ever wanted was a happy family to stay comfortable and content with.

But that can never happen right...? 

There was no such thing as "happiness" according to Isaroth. Even when she laughed, even when she smiled,

"Happiness" was just a word to describe love.

And Isaroth had never been loved. It's not like she wanted it.

But atleast be treated like a normal.. God? Asmoday was powerful, and Isaroth- was just an excuse to be a God. Many other people are stronger than Isaroth yet still she became a God. Why? Because the Primordial one "Loved her".

So then if Isaroth had no happiness, no love or even a sense on compassion nowdays- how would she give her child love? She didn't have any sense of it.

It's sad really.

In the imaginary tree...

The twins were still standing there, mesmerized by the glowing beauty of the tree. It held so many important universes and the twins felt like it was a breathtaking sight. Even when the strange woman disappeared into thin air, the twins forgot about her for a moment until Lumine broke the silence. 

"Wait.. That woman..." Lumine scratched her head, deep in thought while Aether finally stopped zoning out. 

"Lumine! We can go into one of these universes and stay there! And we can also travel in space too!" Aether said, with star eyes. 

"Aether wait. That woman said something about these universes.. Khaneriah..Sea of Quanta.. Honkai..What's all of this?! It's not safe Aether- we have to stay in space!" Lumine said, holding Aether's hand. Lumine was technically the elder sister being the person who first emerged from the star. 

"How will it affect us? How are the people there?, That strange lady... uh- Columbia! That's write her name was Columbia! But anyways- we are going to endanger ourself there!" Lumine made a point. Aether hated when Lumine was like this- Of course Lumine liked to try new stuff but this time Aether knew that Lumine was correct but still...

"Lumine! You always stress about everything! Lets just go, I'm bored of this space life!" Aether said. 

"And what if we fall in the Sea of Quanta?! The "useless universes"?! What if we end up in that Honkai universe and die! We haven't even mastered our powers yet!" Lumine said, begging Aether to listen to her. 

"And besides... What if you die?, What would I do?" Lumine said, sighing and holding her sword in her hand. 

..........

"I can feel something Lumine... Not something.. I can feel someone..." Aether said, looking down while holding his sword in his hands.

"...I don't know what it is but.. I feel like we have a.. connection..." Aether continued, letting out a soft sigh. 

"A...connection..? What type of connection exactly..?" Lumine asked, gently sitting on the water with Aether. 

"A feeling... like somewhere close to "love" or whatever but more like... we've seen each other again and again and again and then reincarnation, another life kind of stuff... And I don't know why my heart feels broken.." Aether said, he kept on blabbering about all of this stuff but Lumine listened carefully. 

"Well if it really makes you feel that then... I can't do anything.. but atleast let us learn some more about this stuff first?" Lumine suggested, hugging Aether. 

"Your the best sister anyone could ever ask for..." Aether smiled, hugging back. 

"..I know" Lumine giggled.
