Cossete's POV

So stupid! Didn't you think you might be in a palace since you saw the crown prince? At isa pa, may nakita akong picture ng isang hari at reyna at yung anak nilang prinsesa! Bakit hindi ka man lang nagtaka?! Annoying!

If I were alone with myself I probably would've beaten myself up already.

"His Imperial Majesty!" just as I knelt I heard the crown prince's voice. The two of them immediately helped me to my feet.

"Crown Prince. Is she your guest?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. I was going to discuss her with you... Actually, she may start a war." My eyes widened at what the crown prince said and I looked toward him, but he wasn't looking back. Ano bang pinagsasabi niya?!

The emperor held his chin as if deep in thought.

"Young lady. Should we have tea after all?" After he said that he called the maids to prepare tea and picked a nice spot in the palace.

"So, can you explain to me, Crown Prince Kaiza, what you meant by that?"

"Her hair, Your Majesty. Didn't you notice the color of her hair?" tumambol ng malakas ang dibdib ko sa sinabi niya. Alam niya? Kaya ba lagi siyang nakatingin?!

"Certainly." the emperor snapped his fingers into the air and in an instant my hair turned black. Pure jet black. "If the council learns of this, they will demand her exile or immediate execution. But I don't understand how she would cause a war. And where?"

"Emperor Cassian La Cienaga Valefor wants to take her. I think he knows about her power. He was the cause of the disturbance last night." pagkasabi non ng Crown Prince ay nagulat ang Emperor.

"That is a problem. But how did he learn about you?" the emperor asked, looking at me.

"I'm sorry po, hindi ko po alam ang isasagot sa inyo. Sino po ba 'yon?" I said and looked at the crown prince.

"When the Emperor of Valefor arrived she wasn't awake."

"May I be honest, Your Highness?" I asked before saying what I felt. "I am not from this world. Isa lang po akong mortal and I don't have any mana within me. I''m just an ordinary person stucked in this world."

"Can I be sure you're not lying?"

"Yes, Your Highness. I am not lying."

"I feel the truth in what you say, but I also sense that you aren't ordinary like you said so. I can't feel your mana but I think you have it in you. Maybe they hid it from you? Nabuhay ka kamo sa ibang mundo? Maybe someone restrained your mana from occuring so someone won't find out that you're not ordinary.

When he said that I was puzzled. ordinaryong tao lang si Mama, 'di ba? I'll admit she's weird sometimes, but I've never caught her using magic.

"I'll release it for you." biglang sabi ng Crown Prince at nagulat ako nang sapuin niya ang dibdib ko pagharap ko sakanya.

"Ano bang ginagawa mo?!" tinulak ko siya kaya tumilapon siya. Huli na ng marealize ko na Crown Prince nga pala siya.

Napasinghap ako at napatakip ng bibig tsaka ako tumingin sa Emperor na mabuti ay humalakhak lang ng malakas.

"Bigla ka kasing humarap! You should've stayed still para hindi iba yung nasapo ko!" sabi niya pagkatayo niya. Tapos ngayon parang kasalanan ko pa.

"Isa pa." sinapo niya ang bandang puso ko at maya-maya pa ay nakaramdam ako na parang hinihigop ang loob-loob ko. Nang pakawalan niya ako ay hinabol ko ang paghinga ko. Parang naubos ang lakas ko pero parang mas malakas ako kumpara sa usual ko.

"Now it's for you to find out what kind of powers you have."

Ang gaan-gaan ng pakiramdam ko. Para bang 100 percent ang energy ko.

"May I know the name of your parents?" tanong ng emperor.

"I don't have a father, Your Highness. But my mother's name is-" before I could finish, a butler arrived and whispered something to the emperor.

"I see. Your sibling has come to fetch you." He snapped his fingers again and my hair turned red again. "With my magic no one will notice the true color of your hair."

I bowed to the two of them and was surprised to see my older sister behind me. Anong ginagawa niya dito? Hindi ko talaga mabasa ang nasa isip niya.

We left quietly, and she only faced me after we teleported and arrived in the middle of the school hallway. I didn't even know she could teleport. And the emperor said I have mana within me. I don't even know my family- not even myself. So lahat ng sinabi ng emperor tama lahat 'yon?

"Who do you think you are, hanging out with the emperor and the crown prince? Do you think you're a princess or something?! I'm warning you. Leave this world now." she said angrily at me, then left me alone.

My shoulders dropped when I reached the room I share with Dannica. Their worried faces greeted me at once.

"Kylee!"

"Cossete!"

"The crown prince took you after what happened. We couldn't do anything." Xia said.

"Are you okay? Did they hurt my baby?" Dannica asked.

"Are you getting married to the crown prince?!" Icia was hit by the two of them dahil sa tanong niya. She cried out in pain and rolled on the floor.

"Ang sakit non ah!" sigaw niya sa dalawa.

"Kung ano-ano kasing sinasabi mong babae ka!" sigaw naman ni Xia sa kanya pabalik.

Pagkaupo ko I told them lahat ng nangyari pwera na lang ang tungkol kay ate. They too were confused about what was discussed in the palace and about my hair.

"Then if you really have mana. And also about your hair color is true.." sabi ni Dannica. "Then how can we found out your powers?"

"Ihulog kaya natin siya mula sa rooftop? Abangan niyo siya sa baba. Ako na bahala maghulog." suhestiyon ni Icia.

"Eh kung ikaw kaya ihulog ko?" sabi ko naman. Siraulong 'to.

"Cossete. Here. Try to throw this glass of water without touching it."

"Hays! Kung ano-anong pinapagawa niyo sa akin! Hindi bale na nga!"
