CHAPTER 12

EVENTS

A king or not a king. Which one?

Estes opened his white eyes, only to be met by the darkness. He couldn't really figure out why he was in a dark place. The last time he remembered was when he helped a fellow friend in war.

He felt something dusty and hard beside him. It was his scroll. He stood up from his royal coffin bed and opened unrolled it. The scroll emitted light and it helped him see through the darkness.

When the light shone, he was in a dark cave that used to be a patient's room that had a terrible disease or sickness. The cave was menacing because of how dark and old it is. He wondered how long he was out. Was ot decades? Nah.. Wait... Is it?

He saw the rock door opening and to see a warrior with broken armory holding an elf body. The warrior couldn't believe his eyes, not at all. He cried and walked to Estes. He bended his knees to him.

"O King, please save Miya. I beg of you."

Estes widened his eyes and went out of his coffin. He then went towards to his fellow subject that he loved as a family.

"What happened?" Estes asked as he touched Miya's neck that had weird purple veins.

"Sh-She used herself as a wall to p-protect me from a crystallized ball."

Estes wished he didn't hear that.

"What crystallized ball?" He asked sternly to Yun.

"A weird person that looked like a butterfly said that the ball contains power. From what i remember, a power that is strong. Strong enough to destroy the world."

Estes was left speechless.

"I guess we have no choice but to do that."

Yun didn't know what he was saying but he was worried of what he might do. Estes told Yun to carry Miya for him because he had to find a spell. Once Estes went out of the cave, the guards instantly bowed before him. Estes told them to stop and he continued to go somewhere. All what Yun did was carry Miya and follow Estes.

The cave was located outside of the Kingdom and it was near. When Estes went inside to his very own kingdom, all the fellow e.lves cheered for his return. Estes just smiled to them, glancing to his scroll. They arrived infront of his castle and Estes told his guards something and Yun couldn't understand it. The guards nodded and Estes went inside, Yun followed and looked back to see the guards standing to each other, as if they were glued together.

Estes went there, there, there and did many turns until he saw stairs leading to a room. Estes breathed in and out, walking to the stairs going down. Yun was SUPER worried because who wouldn't be if they saw a dark stairway?

It was dark and it reminded Estes of when he was unconscious for the past years. To Yun darkness was something he used to be afraid, always calling his mother for help. He smiled at the memory because it was so ridiculous.

They stopped when they arrived at the end of the stairs. It was a door with a weird glass plastered onto it.

"Close your eyes Yun." Estes told him.

Yun Zhao did as what he was told. It took quite the time but he was finally able to open his eyes and when he did, he saw that the door was opened. In the room was nothing but white walls with a circle, that was made with magic, and a long table at the side of the room with a floating chair.

"Yun, put down Miya on the circle." Yun did as what he was told to do and Miya started to float.

"Whaaa." Yun asked to Estes.

"You won't see it but there is magic around her. This magic helps Miya's condition to slow the process of her becoming a threat. The magic within her is strong that it made her unconscious. Before I put this spell on her, the magic was trying to blend with Miya's magic so that it could fit her. Too much power means death." Estes said.

Yun felt bad. It was supposed to be him. Why her? Why not him? Yun couldn't do anything but watch as his beloved friend suffer in front of him.

"It should have been me. Its my-"

"No, even if it was you, you would be in the position of where Miya is now."

"It would at least make me happy."

"Miya did this for you. I'm sure she is happy to protect you. Either way, you two had the same purpose." Estes said and decided to end the conversation by leaving the room. "We should leave."

Yun nodded behind him and suddenly felt immense pain on his nape for a second. "What was..."

He ignored it but couldn't help feeling like there was something on him.

Besides Miya, someone was making a move. A move that killed someone important to Modena.

"A threat? What a great weapon." This person chuckled and drank a glass of red wine. "Oh and thank you Modena for sacrificing your twin."

Modena was locked up with chains and she looked like she cried for how many days. She looked up to the person that it was infront of her. Her eyes filled with hate. Modena despised people with personality like theirs.

"How... How dare you use her!" Modena yelled at the top of her lungs.

"Ah~ah~ah, it wasn't me who killed your sister. It was that very brave warrior." The person had a point.

"Its still your fault! You manipulated her in the first place!" Modena cried.

"Ah~ Its her fault for being so soft." The queen laughed and continued drinking the wine. "Maybe I'll do that to the warrior."

Somewhere very faraway, in a forest, a rock guardian lives. It is said that it is only awake when bad events will occur in the future.

The guards of the forest has always changed. The people guarding has been changed through the generations and the family supporting the guards was the Swan family. The Swan family has always been so kind to everyone and it made them earn great reputation.

But suddenly the ground shook, alerting the guards. Then they saw the guardian itself awaken for how many decades.

A/N-- hyyyy this has been in my draft for a long time. Lol
