Anna smiled as the spirit of Shay walked around her Grandma's shop. She eyed all of the small things.
"Anna! Look at this!" Shay pointed to a small picture of a rundown kingdom. It was very old but it seems familar to the black head beauty.
Anna walked to Shay's side and looked at the photo.
"Grandma told me that this is the kingdom of Xanadu."(cant think of any good names.)
Shay nod as she placed a hand on the photo. She gasped as it showed a shadow figure reaching out for her. Pulling her pale hand back she steped back.
Anna was confused at her 'new best friends, actions. Shaking her head "Are you ok Shay?"
"I am perfectly fine little star."Shay smiled sweetly at Anna.
Anna went into the kitchen for a glass of water. Shay sat on the counter with a thoughtful look on her face. It was very strange what happened back there qith the photo?
She was zoned out until the sound of the door open.
"Hello is anybody here?" A middle aged man wearing a suite walked in.
Shay's eyes narrowed as she felt bad vibes coming of him.
"Hello and welcome to Hinata's shop. How can I help you today?" Anna walked to the counter with a smile on her face.
"Are you the owner?" His dark olive green eyes narrowed.
"Sorry she's not her. But I'm her Grandaughter."Anna was scared and confussed as he grinned.
"I am Todd Andrews. YOUR FATHER."
Anna froze with a look of disbelife. Shay glared at him as she moved over so that she was sitting next to Anna.
'Dont believe him sweetie. He wont hurt or lay a finger on you as long as I am here.' Shay placed a hand on the small 15 year old girl.
Anna was scared and she felt dead. Her father was with her mother on the night they died.
"Sorry please leave."
"Why dont you believe me Anna?"
"Beacause my REAL FATHER was killed in a car crash with my mother 15 years ago!"
He shook his head with a mean grin on his face. "That man was your mother's husband yes. But we both got drunk at a party. She and I had sex and ba da bing ba da boom she was pregnet with you a month later."
Anna's eyes went wide. 'Was I not planned?'
Shay growled at the man. He made HER LITTLE STAR feel like she wasn't planned at all.
"Anna dear where.....YOU!" Grandma pointed at Todd.
"Hello Hinata. I have come to take my daughter with me back to OUR home."
"No! You left Violet when she told you she was having your child. Now after 15 years you came for Anna! Get out of my shop you heartless man!" Grandma chased him out of the shop with her broom.
"DONT BE STUIPD HINATA! ANNA IS MY DAUGHTER AND I HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO TAKE HER AWAY WITH ME!"
"NO DONT YOU EVEN THINK ABOUT IT! SHE'S MY GRANDAUGHTER AND I HAVE RAISED HER FOR 15 YEARS!"
Anna and Shay watched the two yell at one another with insults and lawsuites.
"I wasn't planned at all. I am just an accident that happend to my......" She looked down and cried.
Shay watched Anna with hollow eyes. Anna was hurting inside all beacause of that man outside. He was the one to hurt her and now Anna....is depressed.
"THAT MAN! I HATE HIM!" Grandma stomped into the shop with a redface. She stopped with a shocked look on her face. Her eyes saw her darling Grandaughter staring out of the window with a emotionless look on her face.
"Sweet heart."
"I was an accident waiting to happen wasn't I?" She laughed bitterly as she had tears running down her pale face.
'Little star.....' Shay felt her heart braking as she watched Anna cry. Shay felt like her host's pain and it wasn't anthing she has ever felt before.
Anna was in her room staring out of the window with emotionless eyes.
"Shay promise me this."
'Alright little star.'
"You wont ever leave me or lie to me."
'Until the end of time I shall be at yourside. No lie shall escape my lips that shall harm you.....I promise this to you little star.' Shay wrapped her arms around Anna.
Please dont make your Grandmother feel any more down. She only lied to you to keep you safe. Please forgive her.'
Anna looked at Shay who had a small light smile on her face. Shay seems to make things brighter even though the darkness was endless.
"Ok I forgive Grandma....not for you but I forgive her beacause I love her."
" You have courage and wisdom in your words and you heart little star.' Shay smiled as Anna grinned.
KNOCK KNOCK
"Come in."
Grandma walked in but stopped in the center of the room.
"I am sorry for lying to you Anna. You mother wanted me to protect you from him. She loved you like you were the center of her world. He left her when she said she was pregnet with you. She was heart broken when he told her to get rid of you." Grandma looked down.
"It's not yours or Mother's fault. It ws his and....I forgive you. You wanted to keep me safe from him." Anna got up and hugged her Grandma.
"I love you Grandma."
"I love you too Anna."
Shay watched them hug and cry. Love? What's love? Was it some kind of disese or illness.
"Now sit down sweetie I got something for you."
Anna sat on the window seat next to Shay.
"Now I know that you like games so I want you to have theese." She passed Anna a deck of duel monster cards.
"There so beauitful." Anna looked at each monster with aware while Shay looked at them over her shoulder.
"There my own deck but I want you to have them."
'She has the love illness little star.'
Anna chuckled as Shay said that.
"Thank you so much Grandma!" Anna hugged the old lady who smiled.
"Anything for you my dear. Now I'll make some tea for us."
"Wait Grandma! I need to tell you something important!"
Grandma walked over to Anna's chir and sat down.
"I am all ears."
"That box you gave me was acual a rose puzzle. Yesterday I finished it and inside it was a spirit. She doesn't remeber her name so I named her Shay. I wanted to ask you where did you get that puzzle?"
Grandma had a shocked look on her old face.
"YOU COMPLETED THE PUZZLE OF THE PRINCESS!"
"Yes."
"In ancient times there was a kingdom called Xanadu. The Princess was only 16 years old. She was a wepon that evil craved for and light wanted. She didn't choice sides at all but she ruled her kingdom with wisdom and kindness towards all people. She had the power of wind and water. But she had some other power that was asleep inside her."
"What is it?" Anna wanted to know more but frowned when Grandma shook her head.
'I am sorry but that's all I know. So the Princess's spirit has chosen you as he host huh?"
"...yeah."
"Well you have to watch your back now. Some people craved for her power while other wants to kill her."
Shay was dumb struck. She's a Princess of a place called Xanadu.
"Why dont we go to the museum tomorrow and find out some more information about her."
"Yes! I want to help Shay!" Anna was determind to help Shay out.
'......... Whats a Museum?"
Anna grinned as her Grandma winked. "Well it's late and far too late for tea. Goodnight Anna....and you too Princess."
Anna walked to her bed and pulled the coveres down. Once she was under the blankets, Shay walked over and sat on the edge of her bed.
"Dont worry Shat we will help you regain you lost memories."
'Like your Grandma said. It will be very dangerous and some people will even try to kill you to hurt me.'
"I dont care. I will protect you even if I must lay down my life for you! Ever since you came in my life things have been better and exciting!"
'You like the sence of danger?'
"Not really. But aslong as I'm wearing this necklace we will be together as one." Anna smiled at Shay.
'Yes that is true. But I dont wont you too die so I will protect you aswell. Thank you for everything little star. Now you must sleep.'
Anna smiled as she rolled to her side. "Goodnight Shay." Soon Anna was dead asleep.
While Shay watched her sleep with a smile on her face. 'Thank you so much Anna.' Shay closed her eyes and went inside the rose puzzle to her room.
