--Chapter 2 - Aria

"Love has no other desire but to fulfil itself. To melt abd to be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night. To wake at dawn with a winged heart abd give thanks for another day of loving." - Kahlil Gibran.

*OST -- BoA - Only One

The Empress of the Cygnus Garden admired the clear night sky, and then loomed a shadow from the twilight. The Empress sense the presence of the intimidating shadow of a person. She's not alone.

"I will call the guards, if you don't show yourself!" I am the Empress of Cygnus and there shall be death to those who dare to lay hands on me. - she shivered as she said this and surpirse as how she almost sound more brave than she actually is. When in reality she's actually quite timid by nature.

"Show yourself!" said Aria, as she desperately tried to see what she can use around her to defend herself. Apparently there's nothing. Just bushes and flowers in this beautiful enchanmted Garden of Ereve. Oh Dear, Aria thought silently as she squirms at the thought of noting to defend herself with.

Then the voice finally spoke from the shrubs of the garden. " Empress Aria,  I was actually adoring the beautiful view infront of you. There's a vast and beautiful tranquil lake infront of them and the night clear sky perfectly accentuate the moon beam that compliments your fair skin.. and that Jewel that you have across our chest."

Aria snapped back, in confusion of a dashingly handsome figure who does not appear to be threatening but she figured is best to keep her guard. " What does the jewel pendant as anything to do with your interest?" as she instinctly reached with her whte laced gloved hands to cover the pendant. However she knew her actions betray her and now that she can see from the corner of the strangers eyes that is prized to her.

"I heard much about you Empress Aria, you are suprisingly fierce for a princess." said the shrouded fugure finally revealing himself to be an astonishingly good looking person in admiral like clothings, with a flamboyant 7 feathered hat taken from a dangerous monster Tiru-- a 3 foot gigantic bird something like a Dodo.

"Who are you? You have not properly introduced yourself? You're like an unknown piece that contains many mysteries , just like the pandaro box. You're like the Phantom, who--

The Phantom cuts her off her sentence, "You guess my nick name right, I am occasionally addressed as the Phantom", he flashes his enthralling smile again. "I am sure you've heard tales about me and the prized jewels that I stashed into my collections as a hobby."

And Aria's heart gave another moonsault. That she swears one more of his smile and my heart will give a double moonsault. How can a person who does something bad can make her giddy and feel so good?

Our encounter here is quite an interesting one, and now I must dissapear to the silent night, I shall see you again my princess and he plant a quick kiss on the princess cheek that turned her crimson red.

I have to bid you adieu for now, as It seems we have company, au revoir and Phantom took a bow with his hat taken off. And he shrouds back into the darkness and dissapears...

One of the Royal Guard came, "Empress!" are you alright Empress you've been out for a long time. 

I am alright, "she lied through her teeth" as she just came across a mysterious and charming blonde.

"By the way Mikhael, have you heard of the Phantom before?

Well.. Mikhail stroke his chin pondering, not much is known about the Phantom as for now. Except that he is known to be a very wealthy merchant, however I can't figure out, with the amazing ammount of wealth he has, why does he still resort to thievery"

"The Phantom said, it's his hobby," repied Aria.

"You-u-u met the Phantom?" As Mikhael genuinely seems to be amazed with envy and mix with shock. "Empress, they are rumours flying around like crows, that the Phantom is highly dangerous, we must be cautious if he ever step foot in our city again"

Aria nodded pleasantly. However in her heart, the Phantom does not seem such a bad guy. "Let's Go Mikahel and rest back ton the royal chambers, I would like to meet by Shimsoo and ride with her to enjoy's the night sky before the night ends."

Aria and Mikhael letft the garden shortly. However they did not know the Phantom has been with them the entire time! Clearly, wall of ears. Cough* Cough* I mean shrubs have ears.

And Phantom shrouds back just to reveal his face from the shrub. "Interesting.. I heard that rumour before that I am  I never heard such rumour last time I was rumoured to be fat and ugly and would scare fair ladies away. I wonder how on earth that ever happened. Nasty rumous are definitly not the best policy out there. "I will look for her again, as she's really beautiful, I can't believe in the whole of Maple World. There' such devine beauty."

"Hey! Who goes there!" said the Empress Guards, "hail your formation sire! Your presence is not welcome in this sacred Garden of Ereve. Brute force would be imposed towards you if you do not leave the gardens immediatly! " 

Phantom for a moment looks petrified, and as he says, "Okay, you got me now, there's no need to resort to violence and force," as he turned around putting his hands up, as in defeat. Geez, this person looks annoyed, I better not temper with his mood. Or can I? Phantom thought inwardly liking  the idea of toying with the guard. ""I'm just a "harmless" passer by with  walking cane in my hand,"" as Phantom said this he pressed the nob of the Cane and it creates a blinding white light.

"Oh my eyes!" the guard exclaimed. Which Phantom then swiftly just effortlessly knocked out the guard, with the base of his cane, as a head knocker.

"One hit KO," thought Phantom. "My job is d--" and Phantom heard more hurried footstepts approaching him. Unable to complete his sentence.

"Seize him! Don't let him get away!" said the guards, perhaps dozens or more.

"Oh dear, since when did I request for more people to have a welcome invitation, I feel so honoured, ,"as he let out a grin. "Well I would like to stay to tango, but I have other official matters. Au revoir!" as then Phantom begins the run of dozens of guards chasing him in the garden.
