Undeniable Truth

by Sakura Aidou

The story starts when she's 7 but then jumps ahead 10 years where she's 17. Kagami is apart of Blue Pegasus. She grew up never really knowing who her family truly is. She was lied to as a little girl and ran away. The father she thought she had was a cover for her real father (mother's side, her older brother, Ivan).

1. Prologue

I opened my eyes to bright and saw my mother and father talking quietly out in the hall. The light in the hall was dim as if not to wake me.

I wonder what they're talking about. I asked myself. I saw my mother coming towards my room. I shut my eyes as quickly as I opened them.

I heard my parents' footsteps coming towards me.

"Kagami dear," a soft, quiet voice whispered. "Please wake up. I have to tell you something."

I rubbed my eyes and sat up. "What is it mom?" I asked sleepily.

"Mai we can't tell her," my father said trying to pull my mother back. "Not now. Let her believe who I am to her for now."

"I can't let her keep believing in this lie. I have to tell her."

"Can someone just tell me what's going on?" I asked tired of hearing them argue about telling me or not.

"My husband isn't actually your true father," she told me.

My eyes went wide with shock. "You're lying. Why? Why did you lie? Are you sure that he's not my father? You have to be lying. He is my father." I sat there shaking uncontrollably.

My mother tried to pull me close, but I pushed her away. "Don't come near me ever again."

"Kagami," my mother whispered. "I was only lying to protect you. I couldn't have you knowing the truth about who your father was. It would break my heart knowing that you knew what your true father has actually done to the people around him."

I started crying. I slid off my bed and ran out of my room and away from my parents for good. I can't go back there. I-I can't.

I came to stop shortly before I came the guild my father was apart of. Why did I run all the way here? Should I ask someone for help? I sighed.

"Kagami?" A voice asked.

I turned around to see my very close friend, Ren Akatsuki. I wiped the tears away from my eyes. "Doushitano Ren?" I asked quietly.

"What's wrong? Why are you crying?" He whispered in my ear. Ren pulled me into a hug.

I cried into his shoulder. "My mother lied to me," I mumbled into his shirt. "About who my father is. I've been living a lie." I cried even harder.

"It's okay Kagami. Everything will be okay."

"Arigatou Renii-sama."
