ch. 9

A few days have passed since I told them of my past.

I was walking back to the guild after completing a mission.

"Ah! Y/N! Just who I was looking for." Mira smiled at me from behind the bar.

I walked over to her and sat down at one of the stools.

"What's up Mira?" I asked, playing with an old necklace I found while on my mission. (The one in the pic)

"Well, I dont want to talk to you. The head master does." She smiled.

"Okay. I'll go up there right now. Thanks Mira." I smiled back at her, got up and put the necklace around my neck and made my way towards the stairs that leads to Gramps office.

I walked to the door and knocked.

"Gramps? Its Y/N. You wanted to see me?"

The door swung open.

"Come in. Come in. I want to talk to you about something very important."

He walked to his desk in the middle of the room and sat down behind it. I followed and sat in one of the two chairs in front of him.

"Lucy told me about what happened at her apartment the other night." Gramps got straight to the point.

"What did she tell you about the other night?" I asked, suddenly feeling as if my energy had been depleated.

"Everything." He replied.

"And what would be everything?"

"When a strange man went into lucy's house and tried to kill her to when your power broke loose, finishing at your first kill." Gramps nodded as he spoke.

"O-oh." I let my shoulders droop and my head hang with my hands on my lap. I felt drained as he spoke.

"I know who you are. And I want to help you discover your true power. Not that killing nonsense."

My head shot up, I was shocked.

"What do you mean?" I asked, grabbing the necklace and holding onto it.

"How did you feel when you used the light?" Gramps asked.

"I'm not sure. Strong. Powerful. Maybe. I don't know." I shook my head, trying to make sense of what he just asked me.

"I knew the king and queen. They were close friends until they were killed. The queen told me that whenever she used that power, she used to protect whatever was threatened. She said she felt warmth and love coming from the light." Gramps said, putting a hand on his chin.

"She said that it only happened when she wanted to protect something she values very much. Did it feel like that to you?" He asked.

"I guess. I wanted to protect Lucy and keep her safe from the man. But did the queen ever tell you anything about the strange red markings?" I asked, curiosity taking over.

"The queen said hers were white, a along with her eyes when she wanted to protect something or someone. Yours turn red when you wanted to protect yourself when you first fought Lucy and saying that if you wanted her dead she would already be dead."

"I dont understand." I whispered to myself, clutching harder to the necklace. "Red is the color of anger though. The color of blood. White is pure."

"I'm not quite sure I understand it either. Without your mother here to guide you, it will be a mystery for the rest of your life " Gramps sighed.

"My mother?"

"The queen. Dont tell me after what silver fullbuster said about you being the dead princess you dont believe it." He said annoyed.
