Amaranth ( the unfading flower)

The enchantation

All elves and flower fairy are in position. Duke Sebastian giving orders while Daffodil is looking for Lady Aran. Its been hours since she left without notice. Edelweiss is almost at the last stage of blooming. If the moon's light pass the flower without Ara and the enchantation, edelweiss will wither. Soon Laburnums will find its way for the amulet. Once the amulet is their's,may posibilidad na lumakas sila. They fed by dark auras,and withered edelwiess ang makakapagpalakas sa kanila.

Ara's Pov

Ano ba to. Bakit sobrang kinakabahan ako. Paano kung magkamali ako sa gagawin ko . Malamang hindi ako magiging flower gaurdian, hindi na ako makakalabas ng masyon.

Sino yun? Parang may tao. Bakit ba kasi ngayon pa ako naligaw sa gubat na to.

"Si-sino yan. . .lu-lumabas k-ka?!!! " I tried to compose myself pero talagang natatakot ako.

"Ara,what do you think you're doing? " Muntik na ako mapatalon sa gulat. Hindi ko naman kasi aakalaing sa taas ng puno mangagaling itong si Daffodil.

"Trying not to die from a heart attack."Sabi ko habang hawak ang dibdib ko."Bakit ba kasi bigla ka sumusulpot "

"Its time "

Daffodil grab me and swing our way to Larkspur's land. Kontrolado niya ang mga halaman dito. That's what good about being a flower gaurdian,you can travel by vines or any plants.

Pagkarating namin,agad akong tumungo sa White Pavilion kung nasaan ang Edelweiss.

I breathe in all the air i can consume,hold it for a while and breathe it out. Sabi ni Daffodil, maganda daw to para marelease ang toxin sa katawan. Eto na,wala na talaga antrasan.

With the first moonlight that touched the edelweiss,i sing.

"words that sprouts with noble intent

Sa bawat bigkas ko ng salita,unti unting lumalabas ang gem sa aking dibdib.

heart that purfies a blood once shed

Sa bawat bitaw ko ng salita. . .nararamdaman ko ang puting liwanag unti unting bumabalot sakin.

courage powerful than all strenght

Flower,vines,leaves na bumabalot sa akin. Hindi ako makahinga. Pilit akong kumakawala pero parang may pumipigil sakin.

exsisto meus rector , per a sperma putus ut niveus "

I managed to say bago tuluyang nagliwanag ang paligid. White and red light swirling around. As if fighting for their doninance.

Bloods started to flow out of my chest. Pain,so much pain. It's like something's cutting through my chest.

pectus pectoris exsisto ut unus

That's the last thing i heard bago ako tuluyang nawalan ng malay.

Daffodil's pov

Things are turning quiet good. Umpisa palang napalabas na agad

ang seed of floiriess sa kanyang dibdib. Sa totoo lang hindi ko to inaasahan. I'm impressed for a half mortal like her.

Ngunit may lumabas na kakaibang kulay sa liwanag. Red,. . .bloody red. Edelweiss is supposed to emit white light. Bakit.  . .parang hindi nagmumula sa bulaklak ang liwanag kung hindi sa seed of floiriess nya? Kung hindi ako nagkakamali. . .pero paano?

I tried to reach for her but the light formed a barrier. Every attemp i made ended up with no good. The more i reach out,the more Ara cried out of pain. All i can do is to convice myself that Ara can get through this alive. No half mortal is capable of bearing such power.

The light exploded. Amulet begun to break in half. The red part flew south.Is she alive? Her amulet is supposed to be her heart. Its the seed of her existence.

I run to her aid.

She still is alive,but half of her heart.Gone.

I carried him back to the mansion. Unti-unti na syang nagkakamalay.

"pectus pectoris exsisto ut unus" She held me by my hands.The amulet glows "Heart. . .love"  She said before she collapses. I search for the Larkspur"s book. Something's off. 

"pectus pectoris exsisto ut unus" 

heart be as one. . .

Saffron's pov

This hard-headed guy keeps on wasting my time. Hindi naman nya makikita ang edelwiess na yan. And i won't let him. This journey is such a crap. I have to kick his ass back home before he finds out something he, should'nt.

Paikot-ikot lang kame. Alam ko,nililigaw ko sya dahil sagabal sya sa plano ko. On our way,may narinig akong boses ng isang babae.

"Si-sino yan. . .lu-lumabas k-ka?!!! " DK followed her voice. Bakit may ibang tao dito. Parehas lang ba kame ng pakay. Sh*t,another pain in my ass.

"Pare,hold on" I said and grabbed his hand.

"Ara,what do you think you're doing? " at dalawa sila.

We run towards them pero wala na sila. I tried to follow their tracks. Hindi pa siguro sila nakakalayo.

I saw a light. This ain't good. A white light flying towards us and it's coming at full speed.

"DK,yuko! " I said at tumalon papunta sa kanya. Tumama sakin yung lumilipad na. . .who knows what.I tought i"ll be dead on that very place dahil sa pagsalo kay kamatayan. And for saving this mortal's life.

But i was wrong

Ito na ba yun?

Hindi ko inaakalang magiging ganito kasakit. The amulet. It penetrates through my body. It hurts. I growled in pain. Pakiramdam ko kinakain ng amulet ang puso ko. Sobrang sakit halos ikamatay ko. Kailangan ko tong tiisin.

Kailangan.

For half of the heart.

For power.
