Outside

As the medics continued their work on James, Daphne was held back by the other fairies.

"He should have just left us....." said the second fairy.

"......No, that's just James's style. He never leaves anyone behind" said Daphne.

"What.....the leader had said, was it....?" asked the first fairy.

"Yes, James often got criticized and he also ended up on the wrong side of fairies. He was usually at the front of their disgust with him" said Daphne.

"I'm....not going to argue, I......did the same thing..." said the third fairy.

"All James ever wanted was to be a hero, he knew what I would become as it was traditional for princesses to become fairies and eventually guardians of their own worlds. It was true, I was there when James got beaten up.....yet I did nothing. I.....have failed him..." said Daphne.

Then suddenly out in the distance, a huge army was approaching the destroyed kingdom.

"Are they ours?" asked the second fairy.

Looking closer, it was....but something was wrong. When everyone saw their faces, it was pitch black and their eyes were completely white.

"What's wrong with them?" asked the first fairy.

"James mentioned something about those...creatures being able to regenerate, somehow they must have possessed those bodies. Or it could be something else" said Daphne.

"Those...monsters! They have desecrated the dead! This ends here!" yelled the third fairy.

As the fairies charged into battle, king Radius and queen Luna had their medics carry James off somewhere safe.

As that was going on, deep within James's sub consciousness. Certain events were being replayed over, memories soon came to the surface.


James's mind

Soon the scene showed James as a young boy playing with a young Daphne.

"Yes....I remember, things were so peaceful back then. I had a good time...Daphne had a good time...everyone had a good time, I wanted it to last forever" thought James.

The scene then showed lands and worlds being engulfed in destruction and the ancestral witches hovered above it.

"But then they showed up and the golden era officially ended. From that day onwards, the world was at war. Nothing and nobody was safe" thought James.

The scene then showed an older James seeing Daphne talking with other princesses.

"I had to admit, growing up was the hardest time of my life. The battle had just made it worse, I was expected to join in with the war efforts. I knew what I would become....but I also knew what my sister would become. My beautiful twin sister, I grew up with her.....but now she's out of my reach" thought James.

The scene then showed Daphne pulling James towards her friends.

"She tried to introduce me to them but things didn't go according to plan. Somehow, somewhere, the definition of guardian fairies being the superior beings became a thing" thought James.

It then showed James engaging in a conversation with the princesses.

"Uh.....hi there" said a younger James.

"Um....hi...." said a girl awkwardly.

"Glad to see Daphne has made great friends, please take care of her. She can get lost sometimes" said the younger James.
