Yush yush, this is rewrite for the exact same story title that I wrote a years ago. That time I still confused on what to do with the detail and so do now but, at least I managed to find out some. So, I hope this will be better from the last time. :'D
And I hope people who was followed this story before still willing to follow this new rewrite one :D
Disclaimer: I don't own ToA. If I own it, I will make Sync as the main character instead of Luke, lol.
Arietta POV's
I ran to the Fon Master room's since I heard about Master Ion's health is become worst. But my step is stopped by the guard that doesn't let me in. They said it was the order from Master Ion himself, I wonder why do he doesn't let me in and see his condition, is he really become worst? I can t help but felt worried. I clutched the doll that he gave me when I was assigned to be his Fon Master Guardian and bite my lower lip and decide to wait until the guard went so I can go to Master Ion's room "Master Ion.." I trailed as I walked off, headed to the nearby pillar and hide my petite body there. I really hope I could meet him, and I m sure I could if I wait patient enough here .
Normal POV's
The green haired boy was on his room, sat casually on top of his bed. A smile cracked into his face when he heard Arietta yell from outside before a giggles escape from his lip. "That must be Arietta" Ion said weakly as he turned his gaze toward the door of his room, thinking about his cute Fon Master Guardian that must be worried sick about his condition. He know how care she is to him. After all, the pink haired girl has exclaimed it once to him and to know someone care about him, it make him feel comfortable, and felt something warm on his chest. It's sure is a nice feelings he thought as he put his hand on his chest.
"I heard she does so insist to meet you, why don't you let her in?" The big man with brown hair that tied into high pony tail asked the green boy, make him back to reality. His face and tone seems flat, as if there s no emotion on it. But, Ion already used to it, he has know this man for quiet long after all. He shut his eyes for a moment before he finally turned his head to the man.
"I don't want her to see me on my weak side. I want to looks strong in front of her. I hope you understand that also, Van" The boy gives the man, Van, a weak smile.
"I see" Van just simply nodded as he stares at the weak boy in front of him. He took out a big chocolate envelope and gives it to Ion, "By the way, I am sorry to inform you in your current condition Master Ion, but here's the result of the 1st replica that we created. But its look like it can't doing anything" He said.
Ion took the envelope and took out the report papers inside it. His emerald eyes scanned the papers one by one carefully. The paper was filled with the report of the replica project that they were do, the graphic synchronization level, term of fonon and such written there. "Heh, this one is nothing but garbage. I guess I must see the garbage by my self" He said as he get out from his bed and tried to stand up before he lost his balance and fell. Luckily, Van quickly catches the boy s body, prevent him to fell.
"Don't push yourself Fon Master. You know your not on the best condition to walks around" Van said as he helped Ion to stand up on his feet.
"And when my Best condition is is I wonder. I don't have much time that's why the replica must be done before that time come." Ion commented as he tried to balance his body by Van s help. He could feel the dizziness as he stood up but, being as stubborn as he is, he don t want to looks so weak, even in front of the man that he trust most.
"But you shouldn't see it by yourself Fon Master, not with this condition. You can see it next time." Van said, persuaded the boy to stay on his room and rest. He know exactly the condition of this boy, especially after the replication over, he seems to be weaker. Whether it s from his illness or because the replication, is unknown to him.
"It just me the one who can judged which replica that can take my position as Fon Master. The original one, no one can." Ion glanced at Van as he take his fork shaped staff and begun walked off from the room.
"Understood" Van nodded and followed Ion from behind.
Arietta POV
I see Commandant Van is out from the room along with Master Ion. I really happy to see it. If Master Ion can go out that s means he s not that sick. I rushed to him but got stopped by the guard again Master Ion! I shouted at him. I see he turns to me and gives me a little smile, his finger is pointed to the direction where my room was as if he asks me to go to my room. But I can not, I am not satisfied before I could talk and ask about his condition by my self.
I looked at him with a worried face. And he said something to commandant before he walks over me "Arietta, listen. I will be okay and I want you to go back to your room now. I will meet you later okay." Master Ion said as he pats my head. I can nott help but nodded, I can't deny that I'm really worried about him but.. I decide to believe on him.
He gives me a little smile and waves at me as he walks back to Commandant Van and walk off from there. I looked at his back until he s out from my sight before I walk to my room slowly. He said he will meet me later so I need to believe and I must believe. After all, Master Ion always fulfills his promises.
Normal POV s
They were walking into the dark room, secret dungeon bellow the cathedral, the room is so big the only light there is just the green light that the machine emitted on it screen. At the center of it is a big machine and it attached from ground to the top and there's also some people near it that seemed to be researching about something, must be the replica that they created. One of them are notice Van come with Ion and turned around "Oh, commander Van and Fon Master too. Good evening" Greet the man
Both of them approached the man slowly and stood right in front of the machine that still working. Ion s eyes glued into the screen that show some graphics and such with some dark look on his face. "Master Ion said he want to see by his self the 1st replica that we made" Van spoke up, his expression is not changed a bit from when he talk with Ion. Heard the words from him, the researcher raised one of his brow and scratched the back of his head in rather nervous way.
"But that one is..-" Before the man can finished his word he was being cut off by Ion's
"Just show me already. I want to see it by my self how defective that replica is" Ion demanded. He's so impatient about it but not a single second his eyes turned to the researcher when he said it. Hearing the order from the Fon Master, the man calling for other man to bring the replica to him and without many words the other man took the replica and brings it to the Fon Master.
Ion POV s
I looked at the certain green boy in front of me, the replica of me. The replica doesn t seem to move or do anything instead of just stand there and look back at me with empty eyes. "Can you do something?" I asked the replica as I cup his chin and smirked at him. But I get no respond and it keep looking at me with his green empty eyes Pathetic.
"Totally defect huh?" I clench my fist and punch the replica right on it s stomach, made him cough up blood as his eyes widened open. But still, that empty eyes remain, and I added more power into my fist, make it gone deeper until my fist goes trough it s body. The replica is slowly faded and back to it's original form as seventh fonon
"Better made another one soon, if it s needed made a mass production at once" I commanded as I turned my body, ignored the blood that dripping from my hand that I uses to kill the replica before.
"But how if there s any malfunction on the machine?" One of the researchers asked.
"Then make it until the machine can t be used again" With that word I leave the place with Van behind me.
Normal POV s ( Ion s room )
The room was only lit by a single candle and stand in front of a big window is Ion, his emerald eyes gazed into the distance as he merely stood there, without saying a single word. His mind flashes back to the replica from before and make his hand clenched on the staff that he was holding on.
"I am sorry for making your hands dirty with blood Fon Master" Van speak with a low tone as he bowed his head to the said boy who was stand in front of the window of his room, breaking the silence that occurred between them. He stood a few feet away from the green haired boy with his eyes shut.
"All well, cleaning the blood out wasn t that easy, you know? Took a lot of time too. Besides of that you know why I make you the commandant right? Ion answered with a solemn tone, his face remains neutral and he keeps his gaze to outside for a moment before he turned around with a smile on his face. And sorry for rushing about the replica before, you know, I don t have much time left.."
Don t mind it, Fon Master. I will make sure this project will be finished before that time. Van replied as he lift up his head and looked at the boy who gives him a smile.
I m counting on you, Van.
Flashback
"It s scary.. I m scared. This place is scary. Being alone is scary. Papa, mama where are you? What is this place?" The green haired boy sobs on his knees on the corner of the dark room. His head buried on his knees as tears rolled down into his cheeks. "Why I m all alone here? Why I can not see mama and papa?" The boy asked the old mans in front of him as he hold up his head a little, revealing his green eyes that glistened from the tears, and his nose red due to all the crying. "Because you will need to be a Fon Master. That's why" One of them answered the boys. The tone that he used was a plain one that seemed to send a chilled feeling to the boy as he trembled slightly.
"A-and why do I need to be Fon Master? Why?" The boy looks up at the peoples with teary eyes.
"Because the score said you are special. You can actually know everything that has happened on this world" Another elder spoke and gives the boys another plain tone. This somehow, brings confusion to the boy as he just looked at the elder with the look. The other took a few step closer to the boy as he gives the boy a book, a thick one. He took it and stares at it for a moment before he turned to the elders.
"Now read it. What does it says?" They asked the boy.
The boys look at the book again, and his once confused look, turned to horror when he read it the blood stained words that written on the book as he held it out. 'You'll die at age 12'
Thank you for reading~ ^_^
