Chapter 7: Path to Twilight (part 2)

Jin's POV

She, I mean Sion, is crying. I feel bad for her. I don't know why I showed sorrowful face when she was asking me about her as Silver Knight. If I try to think once more, I remembered about my fallen comrades back then, also about Victor, that traitor. Unconsciously I showed a sorrowful look. Maybe this is what caused her to misunderstand. I must fix this mater. Before I have any chance to speak, I hear her whining.

"I am a failure..." she says, still crying. I must say something fast. "No! You're a good person!" I tell her.

"I am weak..." she continues.

"You're strong!" I say.

"I am not good as Silver Knight!" she shouts and cries louder. It gets me flinch for a moment then I sigh. I pat her head and tell her, "Sorry, this is all my fault."

Her cries lower a little and she looks at me with her teary eyes. "My sorrow was not for you, it was because I remembered about our fallen comrades." I explain and her eyes widens. It seems she has stopped crying. I remove my hand from her head.

Sion's POV

Jin is a good person. He helps me to calm my frustration. I am now in shame for misunderstood his action. I must be the one who understand his feeling better than anyone else, but I only see at myself, not looking at his feeling.

"But I can't go into Burning Mode." I say.

"Don't worry about that. I'm not coming with Burning Mode in the first place." Jin tells me.

"What do you mean? How do you get it?" I ask him.

Then he tells me how he got into Silver Knight with happy face. We sit at the corner of Training Room, enjoying ourselves there while Jin continues his story. He says that he got to feel his burning spirit to let him go into Burning Mode. After that, he continues to the time when Silver Knights were being destroyed; the time when he joined Grand Chase and punished Victor for betraying Silver Knights.

"That's all of my story. If you want to know more, you can always ask me or the others." Jin says ending his story.

"I guess this is my turn to tell you, huh?" I respond him.

Jin nods and tells me, "I want to know about you, but I won't force you to tell me."

I feel shy hearing him that he wants to know about me more. Maybe I'm blushing right now. But I want to tell him anyway.

"It's alright. I want you to know. To compare why I can't go into Burning Mode" I tell him. "Let's see..." I start to bring up my past to him. A long short story. "... And that's why I survive until now."

Jin seems to put all of his attention when hearing my story. He even hums and laughs. At the end of the story, his face turns into sorrowful one. I know why. It is because the last part is about Silver Knights' destruction.

"I don't hear anything weird that resulting you can't go into Burning Mode." Jin states to me.

"Maybe it was because I don't feel burning spirit to begin with." I say. I feel depressed and continue, "It seems Burning Mode is not suitable with me."

"Maybe, but I can guarantee that you have another power inside you." he says clearly. I'm happy to hear that, but I'm still not too sure about that.

"Why are you so reassured about that?" I ask to him with confusion look. I see at his eyes which are full of confident.

"Because I had tested you before so I know your capability as well as your power which is still asleep." he explains to me as he put his hands on my shoulders.

I feel that I get a new hope from him. I don't know that I have any power inside me. But he makes me believe that I have something other than loneliness and sorrow. I don't know what it is, but that gives me hope. Without realizing, there are some light surrounding me. Jin seems to know something and he smiles.

"See, you have another power. Not burning, but it is like twinkling stars. From now on, let's name it like your title, twilight." he suggests me. I nod in agreement.

I try to go into Burning, no, my own Mode and success. I am very happy. Quickly I try to hit a gadget which in result destroying it. My power is multiplied by several times.

Jin's POV

I can see her power is multiplied and become more powerful than me, although it is still not enough to be compared with my Burning Mode.

"That is great." I give her compliment.

"Thank you, this is because of you." Sion replies.

From now on, she trains to get better at her new power which we call it Twilight Mode. She also asks me to help her developing her Twilight Special Skills.


omnious: This is the real end of this chapter.

Sion: Dumb.

omnious: It is better than not continuing your story.

Sion: Ergh, you are right… Review if you would.
