1 year later:
She sleeps until she is awoken by three keys. Many have tried to break the curse that she has been under but no one has succeeded. She is barely visited by more than 2 a week. She never moves only sleeps. They wonder if one day, they will see her out and moving with them. What will come of her? Will she die in a sleeping coma?
Lok walks over to Emma's sleeping body and sits down by her side. He stares at her, laying there with no one to talk too. She has no one here with her. She can't find happiness for herself. She has to be alone for the rest of her life.
"Hey Emma." Lok says with a slight smile on his face. "I was wondering when you are going to come out of there?"
Emma doesn't reply to him. He only hears the water falling on the rocks behind him. Lok wonders if Emma gets lonely sometimes. He can't see her all the time. He knows that Zhalia can't come out that much anymore because of the wedding plans. He looks up to her beauty face that hasn't aged like his. He wonders if she will ever get out to see Zhalia in her wedding dress. If she gets to see Zhalia have kids, him and Sophie as well.
"We really miss you Emma." Lok lays his hand on the red doors. "I only wish we could find a way to get you out of here."
Lok starts to get up when he spots a girl hiding in the trees. He glances over towards her direction and she starts to make a run for it. Lok charges after her. Something is calling him to follow the girl.
"Hey!" Lok shouts towards her. "Hold on!"
She turns her head and Lok notices her dark purple hair. She looks so beautiful. He follows her until she suddenly disappears. Lok stops in his tracks and glances every direction.
"Hello?" Lok yells towards the sky. "Anyone there?"
Something starts to come closer to him. he gets in his fighting stance and stares at the direction where the noise is coming from. He doesn't know who it is but they are powerful. He watches some hair pop out of the bushes and suddenly a face.
"Lok," Sophie shouts at him. "What are you doing?"
"It is just you." Lok says in relief.
"Who else would it be? A ghost?" Sophie wonders about him.
"I saw a girl by Emma's tomb." Lok tells her.
"Lok," Sophie shakes her head at him. "You know that Zhalia doesn't want us to go there anymore."
"I don't care if she is trying to get over it. I will not forget about her." Lok screams at Sophie this time and stomps off.
"Lok..." Sophie whines to him. "Come on."
"I will not do it."
"Come on Lok. You know that Zhalia is just trying to live on with her life like Emma wanted." Sophie reminds him.
"I don't care. Emma is a friend that we were suppose to protect. In the end, we lost her twice. She is gone and Zhalia can't go to see her because she is afraid that she will go on a rampage again like last time." Lok waves Sophie off.
"Lok..." Sophie continues to whine to him. "Come on. We are going to be late."
"Late for what?" Lok stops and turns her with anger on his face.
"Late for the wedding." Sophie reminds him.
"Oh..." Lok turns around and starts to head for the wedding.
He has been helping the researching team with trying to save Emma. They aren't really getting anywhere. Zhalia is helping as well, but Dante got her off of the team to plan for the wedding. Zhalia has come to visit Emma but suddenly stopped showing up a few months ago. Lok thought that is a little strange for Zhalia. He went to her and she ordered that no one go to her grave anymore. Lok wouldn't have that so he visits Emma in private.
"Today is the big day." Lok whispers to himself.
"Yes, it is Lok." Sophie agrees with him. "Today Zhalia and Dante will be getting married."
"I didn't see that coming."
"I did." Sophie smiles to Lok and starts heading down the hill towards the ceremony.
Lok stares at the sunset. The colors erupting the blue/purple sky with orange/red/yellow. Zhalia picked a wonderful day. Lok slowly starts down the hill and heads towards the ceremony. He doesn't want to go because Zhalia has changed but he decided to go for Sophie. Lok quickly gets into his seat and waits for the bride to walk down the aisle.
