I watched out my window, unable to sleep. I wonder what Osprey is doing... I thought with a sigh. I felt my face heat up as I remembered the kiss. It was probably a common occurrence for her. But I doubted it, she was always so distant. But I still remember that night...
I was on patrol, doing my routine check on the Garden of Soulflowers. I saw Princess Osprey trying to climb the wall back into the Stronghold. I sighed, stepping into the garden when all of the flowers started glowing. That only happens if the couple is so meant to be, they're part of a prophecy together. That hasn't happened in millennia. Maybe there was another couple here? No, it was empty other than us.
"What the fuuuuuuck..." Osprey said, watching me before disappearing behind the wall, the flowers immediately fading.
She probably doesn't remember that night, but it's been burned into my memory. "What is the prophecy...?" I whispered, staring at the Pisces constellation. I've always been drawn towards that constellation despite it being the complete opposite of my namesake, Virgo. Who knows. I got up and started walking out of my room when I was slammed into the wall, suddenly staring into horribly familiar eyes.
"Kaito..." I said in a horrified whisper.
He smirked. "I'm back, Darling~."
