     Long ago, there was one kingdom that lived in balance ruled by two skeleton brothers. That kingdom housed the Tree of Feelings in its main courtyard in the center of the castle. The two brothers were the guardians of the tree and swore to protect together it no matter what.

The "oldest" one was the guardian of negative feelings. He was quite handsome and intelligent but was stern and quiet, unlike his "younger" brother, the guardian of positive feelings, who was genial and rambunctious. They were opposites in many way but they loved each other anyway. Till one day that love was broken.

The oldest brother had hatred in his heart for their people, no his brother's people. Only a few shown respect towards him. He also grew curious of what power the negative apples could give. So he ate all but one and turned into a monster. He started turning the golden apples, the ones that held positive feelings, into negative ones. But before he could turn the last one the younger brother was able to stop him. He fled the kingdom along with some of his "followers" and created his own kingdom.

The younger brother was now alone. He knew that the Tree of Feelings would grow back all the apples, negative and positive meaning the oldest one would come back for more chances to kill him and the tree. Because of that the younger brother moved the tree of feelings to somewhere hidden. A place where his brother could never find it. He also planted the last golden apple where the Tree of Feelings used to reside in the courtyard.  And it grew to become a beautiful tree with just gold apples.

Over the years The older brother would attack and destroy the apples and try to kill the younger one. He would fail and wait again once the apples had grown back to attack again.

Now the younger brother waits for the day his brother would come back and they could rule together again.

"The end."

"Mama?"
"Yes, (Y/n)?"
"Why did the older brother wait for the apples to grow back to attack." Asked the young girl.
"Well, the older brother was always fair in fights, he probably wanted the younger one to have all of his power when they clashed," the older woman smiled at her daughter. "Now, its time for you to go to bed young lady, you'll see your father and I tomorrow evening after our mission. Till then Lady Adela will take care of you,"
"Okay, goodnight Mommy, goodnight Daddy,"
"Good night out little (Y/n), we'll see you Tomorrow," her father says kissing her head as they leave the room.

Little did I know, that would be the last time I saw them.

I clutched my heart necklace as I stood in front of the doors to the castle. The heart was  orange while the rest of it was gold. Based off mine and my fathers souls. The soul of Bravery. I still remember that day when I was given this necklace. The day when my parents had died. A friend of my father had come to tell me the news and handed me what what was left of him. My mother's necklace was sadly destroyed beyond repair, even if it could be fixed, I didn't have the money to fix it anyway.

I took a deep breath as I walked towards the doors and was greeted by a familiar smile.

"Welcome back, (Y/n) (L/n)"

"Nice to see you too,"
