As the sun rises up from the east, rays of lights' now starting to crawl all around the area. This feeling of sunlight in his skin, he thought he'll never feel it again.
Kessler made up his mind, he won't leave his sister again. He realized that he should always be on her side to protect her. But not just him, 'cause Scheheredane will also lend him a helping hand to get out of the mess he's in.
"Where are we going Dane?" He asked, the three of them are now inside Scheheredane's car.
"You'll be staying at my house for the meantime, maybe until we got all of your problems fixed." She answered while her eyes are on the road. "It'll be better that way, don't you think?"
"Yeah, I guess but would that be okay for you--
"Agh! Ahh!"
"Woah, woah, woah!" Kessler immediately grabbed the wheel and hit the breaks when Dane suddenly screamed. "Are you okay Dane?"
"Agg! Ahhh!" She's just screaming, holding on to her head with her eyes shut. Good thing Ricciane's still sleeping in the backseat, she's not aware of what's happening right now. "AGGHHHHHHHH!" Her eyes opened and Kessler was surprised when he saw blood from her eyes running down her cheeks, bloody tears.
She stopped screaming, her eyes are just open with tears of blood still flowing.
"Dane? Are you alright?"
"Three of your friends are in grave danger Kessler, they're in grave danger." Oh no!
"Shoot! Who are they? Where are they right now?" He's trying to keep his voice down as much as possible. He don't want to wake Ricciane up.
"I-- I don't know. That's the only thing I saw."
"Wait, I thought you can see it all? Their names, their deaths, what's gonna happen. Now what?"
"I don't know, I don't know, I don't know." Kessler hugged her when he saw her cried, the bloody tears were then replaced by normal tears. "I'm so-- sorry." She said while weeping.
"No, don't be sorry. It's not your fault, I'm sorry if it seems like I'm pressuring you Dane, I'm really sorry." They were silent for a while. Kessler's still rubbing Dane's back, she's no longer crying but Kessler wanted to stay like that for a while. He doesn't admit it but he still loves Dane, he misses her so bad. He wanna be with the girl he's hugging right now always and forever, if possible.
CLICK!
"Hey! What the-- Ricciane? What was that for?" Dane looked at them, trying to cheer herself up.
"What?" She asked with a wide smile on her face. "It's just one photo brother, how bad could it be?" A smile formed on Dane's face when Ricciane said that.
"Give me that, give me your phone!" Kessler's tryin' to snatch it from her sister but Ricciane's not gonna let that happen.
"Hahahaha come on bro, stopped tickling me hahahaha!" Dane's just watching them, she's happy and at the same time envy. Happy that these two are happy and envy because she never experience that before.
"Give it to me. I said give it to me." He's still trying to snatch it from her but he can't.
"Alright, that's enough. We have to go now." They both stopped when Dane spoke.
"Aish, we're not done yet Ricciane Alv." He said.
"Yeah, bring it on Kessler Alv hahaha! Bleee!" She replied with her tongue out.
Kessler switched places with Dane, he decided to drive instead after what happened to her. Dane lives not that far from them but it will still take hours before they'll arrive. The two girls are both sleeping making the car silent for a while.
He's actually bothered right now, thinking of his friends that's in grave danger. He wanna help them, he wanna save them, he wanna end everything.
"Everything's gonna be alright." He looked beside him and there he saw Dane smiling at him. "We'll get through this." That's what he needed, words of assurance. Now, he's not alone in this game 'cause he got his queen back.

A big ol' mansion, surrounded by nature's green masterpiece and the artistry of the place created by hands made Ricciane speechless for a moment. Kessler's been here before that's why he's not surprise.
"Hey Ricc, you alright?" Dane asked when she saw Ricciane by the door.
"Ha? Uhm-- yeah hehe. I was stunned, I never thought that you live in a place like this." Dane chuckled and held Ricciane on her waist.
"Feel at home, okay? By the way, we'll be sharing rooms, is that okay with you? I mean if not, then I'll give you your own room." She asked with a smile on her face, she really is happy that they're here.
"No, you don't have to, really. I'd loved to share rooms with you." She answered as she gave Dane a dazzling smile.
"Are you just gonna smile at each other or are you coming in?" Kessler interrupted as he walked straight inside the mansion. "The bags ain't gonna go in by theirselves Ricciane." He added.
"Yeah right bossy brother." Ricciane and Dane both laughed afterwards.
They all went inside and fixed everything up. Dane asked their cook to prepare food and everything for dinner. Maids cleaning the whole mansion, gardeners working outside and security moving and walking around the area.
Hours passed so fast, after dinner Ricciane decided to sleep early. Kessler knew that her sister's tired and all, even him but he can't sleep. He decided to go outside for a while to breathe in fresh air.
Silent night, cool wind's breeze, full moon's light and dancing trees. A scenery that sent relaxation to Kessler's system.
"Mind if I join you?" That voice.
"No, no I don't." She moved closer to Kessler and stood beside him.
"Beautiful." Kessler looked at Dane who's looking at the moon. She closed her eyes afterwards and smiled. "Beautiful." She repeated.
"Yeah, beautiful." He said while looking at her. "Beautiful." With a smile, he repeated.
"Hmm?" Dane looked at him and saw him smiling at her. "What was that Kessler?" She asked.
"Ha? What, what? Oh shoot--" He immediately removed his gaze to the girl beside him and stared at the moon instead. "I mean, the moon hehehe yeah, the moon-- it's-- it's beautiful hehe."
"Kessler."
"Hm?"
"After all these troubles, can we-- I mean, can we talk about us?" Kessler was surprised when Dane said that. He don't know what to say. "Nah, what am I saying?" He heard her chuckled. "Just forget that I said that hehe."
"Sure Dane." He looked at her. Dane looked at him also. "You see that moon?" He asked as he pointed to it, she nodded. "Close your eyes."
"But why?"
"Just do it." Dane closed her eyes and he can feel Kessler's hands on her cheeks.
"Majestic moon, you shine so bright. In darkest nights, you give us light. The girl with me is the one I love and I'm forever grateful from the one above." Dane opened her eyes and looked at Kessler. He smiled at her and continued--
"And now I pray myself to thee, together forever--
just you and me."
