Shattered memories
Soulmates
Flashback
"What are you doing here, Dipstick?" Ember demanded to glare at him, as he landed on some rock.
"Came to speak with you," Danny said glaring at her
"About what?!" Ember said crossing her arms while she landed, and walked towards him.
"About the recent weeks…." Danny said looking away slightly, "That kiss you gave me"
"Be quiet!" Ember said blushing slightly, "It…. Was just…. A mistake"
"A mistake?" Danny asked sighing slightly, "I don't think it was a mistake"
"He…." Ember looked away with a blush, she didn't know what to think anymore. Ever seen she had stop and talked to Danny on that rooftop…. She hadn't felt the same ever since.
"Ember….." Danny mumbled walking closer to her, "I…. I think….. I have feelings for you"
"For me?! Are you even hearing yourself?!" Ember said a bit taken back but felt….. revealed that Danny said those words to him.
"I am…. And I know you mustn't feel…." Danny sighed and rub the back of his neck, "I know it must be weird since we're enemies"
"Come here…." Ember whispered grabbing his suit and pulling him into a kiss. Danny's eyes widen from the sudden kiss, he smiled on her lips and kissed her back.
Present
Ember slowly opened her eyes as she stared at the floating rock, she sighs softly and whips a tear away. She looked ahead of her and simply continued her journey, she took out the map and X out another part of the Ghost Zone.
"Ugh…. Where the hell are you, babypop?" Ember mumbled while she stared at the map.
"Hey Ember" Ember put the map away and look at her, she smiled slightly seeing Kitty flying towards her.
"Hey," Ember said stopping so Kitty could catch up to her
"What are you doing here?" Kitty asked stopping
"What do you mean?" Ember asked while she looked away slightly; Ember sighed some more and looked away from Kitty. She knew about Danny's death, she was Ember's best friend after all.
"Why aren't you at home? I mean…. You just lost Danny" Kitty said placing her hand on her friend's shoulder.
"No…. Kitty I can see him again," Ember said smiling and biting down her lip
"What?" she asked raising a brow in confusion
"Clockwork said I can see him again…. I have to find this ghost….uh… Moirai!" Ember said taking her map out, "Clockwork already told me areas I don't have to search"
"Moirai….? You mean the Ghost of Fates?!" Kitty said with her eyes widening slightly, "Him?!"
"You know him?" Ember asked putting the map away and staring at her friend in shock.
"Moirai…. Hm…. He's heartless when it comes to souls" Kitty explained shaking her head slightly, "He collects them instead of sending them to the light"
"How do you know so much about this, Kitty?" Ember asked as the two landed on another rock.
"I was wandering around the Zone a few years ago when Moirai found me... He explained who he was" Kitty explained and took the map out of Ember's bag, "If I remember correctly... He somewhere around here?"
"Here? The dead zone?" Ember asked pointed to a deserted part of the Ghost Zone, "Are you sure? It's dead there... It's not capable of sustaining a realm"
"The perfect place for a Ghost of fates to hide" Kitty pointed out. Ember eyes widen slightly and realised Kitty was right! A deserted part of the Ghost Zone that couldn't maintain a normal realm, the perfect place to hide since no one would ever think to search for such a place.
"We have to go! Clockwork said I have to find a box" Ember said taking Kitty's hand and taking flight.
"A box? Are you even certain this will work?" Kitty asked while being dragged towards the dead zone.
"I have to try…. If there's a chance I can see Danny again," Ember said letting Kitty's hand go, as she followed her.
"Ember, why are you so obsessed with seeing him again?! Why can't you let Danny go?" Kitty asked while she followed her, and watched the Ghost Zone become more deserted and dead.
"I can't let him go…," Ember said looking back at her, as the realms started to get rarer as they went further into the dead zone.
"Why not?" she asked
"Clockwork told me something interesting... He said our souls are soulmates" Kitty said and smiled at her
"Soulmates?" Kitty asked and flew slightly ahead of her, "What's that?"
"I don't know…. but Clockwork said I already loved Danny even before I met him, he also said that I would feel when Danny's soul is calling for me... Whatever that means" she said before arriving at the heart of the dead zone.
"I sure hope you're right," Kitty said stopping beside her and staring at the dead zone, "Because there no turning back now…. he probably knows we're here"
"Indeed I do" Kitty and Ember quickly turned around and back away from the ancient ghost. Kitty held Ember's arm and pulled her back, she knew Moirai wasn't to be trusted and she hopes Ember wouldn't fall for his tricks.
"Moirai…. You fucking killed Danny!" Ember shouted trying to attack him, but Kitty held her back.
"Now, now, aren't you rude Amberline," Moirai said chuckling slightly
"Fuck you!" Ember shouted
"Is this what you want?" Moirai asked holding Danny's box. Ember smiled seeing the box, she moved her hand slightly when she suddenly felt a pulsing in her chest.
"Wh…" Ember held in the chest with her hand and felt the pulsing continue, the pulsing felt like... A heartbeat. Moirai raised a brow and smiled, he lowered the box and simply watched Ember stare in utter shock.
"Soulmates... Well, well, I haven't seen this in two centuries" Moirai said tilting his head slightly.
"What the hell going on?!" Ember said as she clenched her chest, "It's... Like… my heart is beating once more…."
"What's happening to her?!" Kitty asked as the box started to glow as a response to Ember's 'beating heart.'
"You don't know what a soulmate is?" Moirai asked while he watched the box glow in rhythm as Ember's pulsing.
"NO!" Kitty shouted
"A soulmate is a strong connection between two souls, who are drawn to each other in a way on one can experiences. Their connections become stronger along with the love, a strong and complex bond that forms. And when a soulmate dies... The other soul feels empty, alone, and doesn't feel like they're one! They feel a loss of connection and isn't able to recreate this special bond, they had with their soulmate." Moirai explained and glance at Ember, knowing that how Ember was feeling when Danny died.
"Why does it… feel like a heartbeat….?" Ember asked while she moved her gaze to the glowing box.
"Because the power of love can be incredible," Moirai said while he continued to watch the box glow in a pulsing manner, "And the love between two soul mates is, even more, extraordinary!"
"What do you mean?" Kitty asked
"If Ember wanted too…. She could have children" Moirai said before he made the box disappear. Ember gasp as she felt the pulsing immediately stop, as the box disappeared from Moirai's hand.
"What?!" Ember said looking up as she held her chest, "but we can't... A hybrid ghost can't..."
"Love is the most powerful magic in the world! The strength of love depends on the couple! And since your love for Danny is quite... powerful! Something i hadn't seen in a long time... You can have children with him" Moirai said crossing his arms behind his back, "Thats why Ember would be able to bear a child, even though Danny's a hybrid! Who usually can't produce children because their still alive"
"How is that even possible?" Ember muttered in shock, as she simply stared at him with a blank expression.
"Too complicated for your simple minds to understand," Moirai said and laugh some more, "You'll never get your hands on that box"
"Go to hell," Kitty said
"I'm already am!" Moirai said before disappearing in wind of smoke. Kitty glared and slowly looked back down at Ember, who simply had a blank expression on her face.
"Ember…. how are you feeling?" Kitty asked touching her shoulder, "After what he said?"
"Strange…." Ember whispered placing her hand on her heart, "My…. Heart was beating... It was beating... In my ghost body!"
"The power of love between the both of you….. must be incredibly strong," Kitty said looking around the Dead Zone.
"We have to go after him," Ember said moving her hand from her chest, "Now that I know how my body will react….. we can find Danny's box and free him"
"Are you crazy?! If we go in there... You know what Moirai will do to us?!" Kitty said waving her hands in a panic, "He found us even before he got the chance to walk on his lawn!"
"Clockwork placed a special spell on me... So that Moirai wouldn't be able to see me... So how did he….?" Ember mumbled staring at Kitty when it clicked, "He saw you! That's how he found us... He saw you talking to me"
"If you're right…. Then you shouldn't be telling me this" Kitty said while she shook her head slightly, "He'll know everything now"
"I don't think he's watching you," Ember said looking around slightly, "I'm pretty sure Moirai is the type of person, who will intervene before we can cause any trouble to him"
"So what are you going to do?" Kitty asked with a worried look on her face.
"I'm going to Moirai's realm and getting Danny's box! Moirai can't see me... So I'll have to go alone" Ember said taking flight and flying further into the Dead Zone.
"That's suicide!" Kitty shouted quickly flying ahead of her and stopping Ember in her tracks, "You do realise Moirai is the one who controls souls right?! You know what he could do to you?!"
"I don't care!" Ember shouted moving Kitty aside, "I'm going to get Danny back! I'll go into Moirai's realm, find his box with the help of my heart, and free him!"
"You're crazy," Kitty said watching Ember fly further away
"Fine I'm crazy, I'm stupid, call me whatever you want! But I'm going to get my husband back no matter what!" Ember said looking back at her friend, "Wish my luck"
