--Chapter 2--
'What can I do to make you smile...? Prince...?'
The first thought that came to Princess Tutu's mind after seeing the prince for the first time is how she can make him smile. She could remember it clearly, as if it was only yesterday.
It has been many years since she locked in the heart piece. How many years? Two? Three? More than five? She doesn't know well.
But is it important about knowing how long she was there?
She keep waiting in silence, waiting for a voice that calling for her. She doesn't even brave enough to speak, because she scared if she doesn't hear the voice.
"I would do anything to make you smile... Anything..."
Once again, the one who can hear her feelings is the storyteller.
"Oh my, oh my... Now let's see, will something interesting happen if I give her the second chance?"
***
Tutu was not just a reflection of a heart shard. She was a spirit who lived in the prince's heart shard of hope. She has her own heart. She has wings, instead hands. But in order to bring the prince's heart back, she was given hands to hold the heart shards....
At first chance.
But this time, she doesn't have any hands to do her job.
'But you said you'll help me, you'll give me the second chance.... If I don't have any hands, how could I hold the heart shards? Oh—and I don't even unlocked from this heart piece!'
"I know, Tutu, just calm down.... To hold the shards, you must be an assistant for someone who wished to help the prince. In that way, you can use their hands to hold the shards," the man laughed again.
'Err.... I... see,'
The man laughed loudly. "But your voice seems like that you don't know what I mean, right?"
Tutu doesn't say anything. The man just smiled—smirked, exactly.
'But... eh, Drosselmyer-san, how could I know the one that...?'
"All you have to do is listening to what your heart says!" he said, and he laughed.
And with a crackling sound of puppet stick, the man disappeared.
Still, the princess locked in the heart shard....
Just until a voice calling to her.
***
The knight was dead. The ravens kill him.
However, he lives now, as a different person. A boy named Fakir.
He's an orphanage boy. His parents dead when they were protecting him from the ravens. He lives with Charon since he is 5 years old. Charon is his father's friend, the owner of an antique shop.
"Nee, Fakir? Are you getting hurt?" he asked after seeing the scar.
"No," he replied. "It's not a scar. I have them since I'm a baby, that's what my mom said," he added.
"Oh..." Charon nodded. Little Fakir looked confused. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing... Fakir, do you ever read 'Prinz und Rabe'?" he asked. Fakir shook his head. Charon nodded again.
"What's wrong with you, Charon?" asked Fakir. Charon smiled.
"I think... It's like that you're the reincarnation of a knight from that story..."
Fakir smiled. "Knight?! Wow, cool! What's his name, Charon? Do you have the book? Is he a brave knight?" he asked excitedly.
"I have the book, and yes, he was a brave knight... But in the end of the story, he was dead in order to protect a prince..."
"Oh... What's his name?" asked Fakir.
"His name is Lohengrin."
***
The ravens were here and there. They covered the sky with their dark wings.
A baby is crying loudly. Her mother ran to catch her.
"My baby.... Please don't take my baby.... Please.... Help!!"
Some people run to her and said, "What was happened?"
"My daughter.... My baby... The ravens take my baby away!" cried the woman.
They were looking to each other. They had known very well that no one could fight against the ravens. They were too strong.
***
The prince holds his sword case tightly. He had loose his heart. He broke his own heart to save the town from the raven monster, for the second time.
He was remembering a name.
Who saved him in his previous life? Who saved him when the same things are happened? Who brought his heart back to him?
There's only one name. Now he's trying very hard to say it.
Finally, he could say it. With a very small whispered voice.
"Tu...tu...."
No one could hear it.
No one could hear it, except Tutu. But that was enough to unlock her from the heart shard.
Now, she just needed to find someone that wishes to help the prince.
Tutu smiled. "I'll be there soon... Prince..."
Yeah, I know that is a short chapter... But the next chapter is longer than this one.
Is this chapter good?
