The night has come,the ship keeps sailing. Forget Me Not guided Zima to his cabin once again for sleep,which was not needed for him.
"I'm thankful that you decided to accompany me,Zima - it was great." - Forget Me Not said with a smile on his face. - "Have a rest,my friend - tomorrow will be a special day."
"A day of...what?" - Zima asked.
"A day of our arrival to Chicago like I told you." - and after that answer,Forget Me Not started to close cabin's door,saying:
"Sleep well,Zima."
After closing the door,Forget Me Not started to walk through corridor to one of cabins' door. He knocked and entered a fancy cabin,decorated with star fabrics. In the middle of cabin,there was a table and behind it sat a woman in black and red dress.
"You are not asleep,Miss Flynn - good to know."
Miss Flynn is a seer,who agreed to work with Manus Vindictae as vice organiser due to her abilities. She had never failed in her planning ideas that end up work as perfect as Arcana wanted. Beside being a seer,she's also an Arcanist,which makes her immune to storm,that makes time go backwards,disposing of ordinary people. Most of Manus Vindictae members are Arcanists especially Forget Me Not,who became one due to his past. Every member have their reasons for disposing ordinary people,but Miss Flynn's reasoning is still unknown to anyone,but Arcana.
"I'm not." - Miss Flynn replied. - "You came to talk about today's situation,don't you?"
"I am - I appreciate your ability to immediately recognise what is wanted from you."
"No need of sweet words,Forget Me Not sir. Have a seat - I'll tell you what you have to hear."
Forget Me Not sat behind table and Miss Flynn started to toss cards in her hands. After couple of minutes she took three cards from deck. Placing them on table,the result seem to be very good since these cards were The Sun,The Hierophant and The Justice.
"Huh,good perspective...way too good."
Forget Me Not looked at cards and said:
"They also look good for me. Care to explain the meaning behind them as well?"
Miss Flynn placed her hand on The Sun card,saying:
"This card is usually about fun,warmth and positivity. In my opinion,that man will give you new feelings you have never experienced before no matter if you keep pretending or not."
After that,she placed her hand on The Hierophant card:
"This one is about spiritual wisdom,teachings and traditions. I seem to see that you'll work with him together and give each other some lessons. It's like an exchange: you'll teach him with something he lacks now and he'll teach you as well."
"I have some questions before you continue." - Forget Me Not says.
"Yes?"
"What kind of feelings you are talking about?"
Miss Flynn looked down at her table without saying a word,while Forget Me Not kept with his conviction:
"You know me well,Miss Flynn - I'm not that type of person,who can feel feelings like these. The only reason why I maintain his trust is for Manus Vindictae only. I have no other reasoning to bring him beside it. It's just how bold it can be for a person try to give such feelings like these?!"
Miss Flynn looked at Forget Me Not again.
"My apologies." - she said calmly and started to touch his chest with a hand and then his neck,gently pressing it with two fingers. After doing that so,she later said:
"Sometimes,Fate works not to our likings and we have to face unexpected scenarios from it. Most of these scenarios are turned out to be for better purpose: to make you stronger,better,wiser - for anything. You only have to go through it and nothing more. If you try with your plan as well,it would still worth it. Just try to listen and you'll might understand something."
Forget Me Not starts to slowly calm down his nerves and silently expected Miss Flynn to continue.
"As for your question..." - she continued. - "I was about to answer it,so I'll continue with predictions."
"Before you do so,can you take two cards from your deck as well? I want to see what else it'll say."
"Sure." - Miss Flynn replied and took two cards from deck with faces down. She took The Justice card and said:
"This will be an answer to your question - a card of justice,fairness and truth. This man is your karma,your mirror - you deserved him and he deserved you. I assume,while saying all of those words to me,you were simply...lying. You saw something in him,that attracted your attention and that "something" can be useful not only for Manus Vindictae itself,but for yourself too. Am I right?"
Forget Me Not replied nothing. He's still in disbelief of what he heard,but remains calm,hoping for better results - up to his liking.
"This is good to know,but can you show me other two cards?" - he asked politely.
"I was about to." - Miss Flynn replied and put The Justice card back to layout. She flipped first card - it was reversed The Chariot.
"It's reversed...I seem to understand something."
"And what exactly it does mean?" - Forget Me Not asked.
"It's about self-discipline,opposition and lack of direction. You'll try to resist something - I think it's about your feelings. Not only that,you're also have some lacking in your choices. Are you sure that you've made up your mind back then?"
"...I am."
"..."
Miss Flynn sighed,sounding like she had just lost her faith.
"I'll keep going." - she spoke and flipped the second second card. It was reversed Death.
"Death,huh..." - Forget Me Not said like he found something intriguing in this card.
"No wonder..." - Miss Flynn said as if she had been expecting this card. With a minute of silence,she continued:
"In reverse,it's a card of resistance of change,personal transformation and inner purging. I hate to break it to you,but no matter how you try to resist,there's no escape from transformations and changes you'll face."
And just Forget Me Not was about to speak,Miss Flynn said:
"You'll see it all yourself - just keep up with your wishes and plans."
"Hm,you seem to know well what I was about to ask." - Forget Me Not praised. - "Thank you - I'll keep that in mind."
"My pleasure." - Miss Flynn replied with a dark red smile. - "Have a good night before arrival."
"You too." - and with these words Forget Me Not left the cabin,closing the door.
"Hmph,I won't escape...How dull." - he thought in his mind. - "I won't let that happen no matter what."
While walking to his cabin,he saw a shadow of someone approaching him. It was Zima,who decided to walk at nighttime.
"You are not asleep...What are you about to do?"
Zima,after some time of silence,replied:
"I...I want to...w-watch the...view..."
"Ah,I see...Have a great time and rest afterwards."
And just when Forget Me Not was about to leave,Zima asked:
"Wait...Why are you...n-not asleep...?"
Forget Me Not did not expect that question. He immediately knew that Zima suspected something. After a pause,he eventually came up with answer:
"I simply came back from outside - the moon was beautiful today,so I decided to have a look at it at least once."
[Khorosho]
"Хорошо*...G-Good night...then..."
"You too."
And they both left without any suspicion. Forget Me Not entered his cabin and prepared himself for sleep. While lying on bed,he looked at ceiling and started to think:
"Warm feelings,karma,changes I can't resist...It's all nonsense. I've met a lot of people through my entire life and none of them affected me at all. I believe Zima will be just like others - not able to affect me in any way. I'll prove Miss Flynn that she was mistaken this time because none of that are just possible to happen. I'll show her...I'll show her someday. I'll be always the very same Forget Me Not like I wanted - I won't be some kind of empathetic man,who can spare someone. I hate humanity - I hate them for what they did to me. They'll regret harming me when I was a child. No-one will fix me,no-one will change me - nobody will ever try to change me. Nobody...Nobody will be able to affect me in any way. I will prove her that - I will prove that I will be as same as I am now forever..."
