PLACE: Western part of the university- CREPUSCULAR PORT

Huminto sa paglalakad si Violet in the middle of the ocean shore ng maramdamang may sumusunod sa kanya. She is about to meet Librio and Capri on the cliff just a few distance on where she is now. Pagtalikod sya ay hindi nga sya nagkamali. These are the faces she saw a few days later.

“Why are you always following me?”

Si Zach na nandoon na din at tumatayong leader ng grupo nila ang syang nagsalita.

“We want to propose a deal.”

“And what about it this time?

“As I said the last time we meet, we are here to take care of the stones but since you can’t trust us to do that I have a deal to offer to you.”

Violet arched an eyebrow. “Who are you to propose a deal to me to the thing that we own? The Celestial stone is ours; it was entrusted to us by our great ancestors to protect. No one should dictate us what to do.”

“Violet, I’m not questioning your physical ability to protect the Celestial Stone. But right now, your emotional reasons will put it in danger.  We are aware that one of your siblings is one of those bad guys chasing after the Celestial stone, and we can’t trust it to someone as emotionally unstable as you. And the same reason goes for Capri and Librio. You need a helping hand on this matter. And as an older sibling for that two, we are expecting you’re cooperation in this deal.”  Seryosong ani Zach habang nakapamulsa pa pantalong uniform.

Samantala hindi naman maiwasang hindi humanga ni Aria na tahimik lamang na nakikinig sa usapan ng dalawa. Zach is good on doing things like this, no wonder he became a top-class agent. Magaling itong makipagusap sa mga kahit anong klaseng tao and he is just too good picking on what words to say.

“I’m fine on you guys tagging along in our mission to find a perfect place for the stone but… how can I be so sure that you’re not trying to steal the stone to us?”

Nagkatinginan ang anim wondering if sasabihin nila ang totoong pagkatao kay Violet. Tumango si Aria kay Zach tanda ng pagsang-ayon at tila lahat naman ay hindi tutol sa desisyong iyon kaya napabuntonghininga na lamang si Zach.

“I can see that you can’t trust us yet since you don’t know anything about us.” Panimula ni Zach saka marahang ipinikit ang mga mata. “This is supposed to be just a yes or no deal but since you’re too persistent on knowing us… we got no choice…”

Napahakbang ng tatlong beses si Violet. She’s feeling a little odd. The ambiance of the place becomes lighter and now she feels magical power all over the place. She looks at the ocean at tila lalong lumakas ang alon wiping out all the sea shells sa pampang. At ang mas lalo pa nyang ipinagtaka ay ang pangangatog ng mga tuhod nya at pakiramdam nya ang matutumba sya kahit anong oras. Nakita nya that the green eyed fairy looks like saying something at pagkatapos nitong bumulong ay napakurap sya ng tatlong beses sa nasaksihan. The fairy’s wings of the five are now gone. Isa lamang ang may natira but her wings glows brighter than her. In fact it was the brightest wings she had ever seen. At mas lalo pang nanlaki ang mga mata nya when she saw the fairy transforms, from her brown colored hair to silver long hair. Nawala din ang malaki nitong eyeglasses sa mata and the only remaining personality na nakita nya dito is her flat emotionless expression. And then she knew, on that moment that this fairy is the famous former student in the Heartstrings University Chantele Kress. Yeah, there’s no mistaking of it. Sa sobrang sikat nga nito ay may sarili na itong corner sa library ng Unibersidad.

Dumako naman ang pansin nya sa katabi nito na nakita nyang bumulong before all this things happen. At first look he’s just a simple guy but when Violet saw his green eyes at ang kakaibang hand sign nito in which both palms are together ay napalunok sya. She then realizes that no one in the fairy’s world know any hand signs. Just who is this man?
