"Noir..Why are you helping me?" pressing every word out of her month with her body in deep pain, holding it back in her voice.

"Because of your mother. She saved me and my village when I was a little boy." he paused, watching over renella in deep pain. "I remember how badly my village treated you when you and your mother arrived. I am sorry." he countines, kneeling down infront of her.

"I don't remember you and I don't wish to remember those places." Renella response, coldly before pressing herself upon her feet.

"They hurt you and it was a matter of time before the people here would do the same to you." He added, extending his hand to aid her upon her feet.

She accepted his help and thanks him.

"Right now, we need to find your mom."

"Death holds her now, but there was two.. and the atmosphere felt odd..a break of time?"

"What do you mean?"

"I don't know. It felt like time was either speeding up too fast or overlapping from another period into this time."

Noir walks infront of renella and made her blush softly, when his hand reaches a piece of white hair in between his fingers.

"Could it be...?" he mutters, staring at her jet black hair coated in pure white. "A Child of Time.." he said, looking at renella.

Renella immediately steps away from noir, his grip on her hair slips from his fingers.

"A Child of..Time?" taking back from his words, but she could taste the time maniuplation in the air. It was faint, but her body felt it throughout every nerve.

"You was able to see two forms of death when I only saw one." Noir walks towards her. "I am sorry.. I didn't get there fast enough."

Nothing but deep silent encircles them both, beside the village's cries, argues, and recovery in progress. Both Renella and Noir awaited for someone to say something, but neither knew what to say about Shanoa's kidnapping. Instead, renella walks towards the altar, resting her eyes upon the huge silver cross hanging on the wall.

Noir refuse to follow her towards the altar. He only sighes under his breath and walks outside the church, leaving her alone at this moment. Renella realized his departure, but doesn't acknowledge it. She didn't feel like talking about her mother. It was too much. It was another burden, because now her life is now in her daughter hands.

" custodiet eam...(Watch her)" she whispers in Latin, before wiping her hidden tears away from her tiresome eyes. "Placere Deo..(Please God)" her last word as she turns away from the altar to catch Noir outside. "Noir!" calling out his name, pushing open the doors of the church.

Noir awaited from renella outside the church. He glances down at her village and became untouched by their behavior. It was the same as her own village at one point in time.

"Noir.. tell me more about the "Child of Time" renella said, walking beside him.

"A Child of Time is the child born outside of time. He or She is born among a time traveler." He looks over at her. "A white birthmark is the sign of " A Child of Time" he continues to explain the meaning to her. His reason to explain this to renella must mean that he feels she is this child of time. It makes renella grab a piece of white hair, before it changed back to jet black in her fingers.

"May I ask.. who is your father?" Noir asked.

Renella laughs nervously.

Noir raises his eye. "What is funny?"

Renella's attention shifts towards the village below. "I don't know. It never occur me to ask my mother because we .. I have been dealing with trying to find a place to call home."

Noir carefully listens to her words and noticed how much pain and suffering she has endured. He knew she needs to rest for now before pressing ahead to save her mom.

"Renella, there is some place i need to go. Will you wait for my return? Once I return, we will look for your mom." He ensures her with a warm smile despite this mess, this chaos, slowly coming to the surface. Noir leaves her without waiting for her reply, placing his hood over his head before his departure.

Not understanding what he needed to do at this moment, renella decides to visit laura without the people in the village to know. Now that shanoa is MIA, and everyone incuding the mayor of the village can do extreme harm to renella. Without her mother's protection, renella could be in real dangerous among the villagers.

"I am glad the village is safe.. but if i go down there.." thinking among herself about the different outcomes from visiting the village. "I want to make sure that everyone is okay." thinking about this more, renella really did need to rest for a couple of hours. Her body have been consistently alerting her about pushing past her limit countless of times.

Listening to the villagers repair the damage done from dark forces, renella decided to remain at the church. It was best they are left undistributed from her presence. Turning her back on the village down the hill, renella re-enters the church and goes into the spare room hidden in the back of the altar. She presses her hand on the wooden door and pushes it open to a room with a bed and lamp.

The room was dusty and old. It seems like everything has age not so well within time, but it remain stable with the structure of the church. Renella rests against the entrance of the doorway, examining the room with her eyes before taking a step inside the room. She brushes off the dust from the bed sheets with her hand before laying her body down on the bed. Quickly, she fell into a deep slumber.

Renella begins to dream. Her dream was a clear description of herself inside this room. She was standing in the spare room of the church. The air was warm and dry to the touch. Everything was the opposite in her dream. Everything felt darker. Renella was herself, but walking towards a small pool of water in the middle of the floor display renella with pure white eyes and hair. Her face was dim in the low lighting.

"You are here. " a male voice spoke from the other side of the pool of water. He wasn't there before, and haven't been there since her slight glance at her reflection in the water. Renella lifeless white eyes looks at him. He was the same age as her and Noir. He looks like a noble gentlemen.

"Renella, my dear. We finally get to meet. I am Draven. Please to meet you at last." he spoke crystal clear and his voice was enchanting to the ear. It was confronting, sweet and strong. Renella couldn't speak back, as some strange force kept her from talking back in her own dream. Instead, she stares at him with lifeless eyes.

"I am well aware of the things you have been through. I can help you ease the pain." his smile was gentle. It was a smile that you can trust. "I am sorry for the loss of your mother I can help you get her back. Follow me." he said, walking towards the door and opens it for renella. Renella follows him, and exits the room with him behind her.

He immediately grabs her hand, leading her outside the church. They both adventures down the hill and inside the village. One-by-One each villager was talking about Renella, Dark Lord, and the missing Belmonts.

Male Citizen#: "Where are the Belmonts?"

Female Citizen#: "Maybe the rumors are true and they are extincted, but I am glad the witch isn't here."

Male Citizen 2#: "Yeah, that hooded fellow carried her to the hill and toss her into the sea."

Female Citizen#: "How do you know?"

Mal Citizen 2#: "He returned without her. That is the only reason."

Renella and Draven watches on. It was affecting renella more. It was a knife consistently stabbing her into her heart.

"They did not care for you and wish nothing but death to carry you away from them." Draven repeats the same sentence that everyone told her. It was a scene she have seen over and over and over in the village.

"You only want to help them and prove them wrong." he adds on. Renella looks at him. She wonders how is this going to help find her mother, until one of the citizens spotted her on his right. His eyes widen in fear, along with the other two citizens.

"You are still alive?! Get away from us!" he screams, pushing her away from him. Renella fell to the ground. She realizes this dream felt real, and spotted her. Draven kneels down beside her, brushing her off, but renella held her head down. Something was building inside of her and the minute draven whispers a few words into her ear, everything broken inside of her. He ensure her that this is only a dream and everything she do in here will no affect the reality of her nature. He wants her to release her anger and suffering for once on everyone who wish for her death.

Immediately, Renella screams and time around her stopped. The man frozen in mid run, the villagers frozen in mid fear. Only her and Draven were allow to move freely still.

"You want me dead? You wish for my death? You are scared of me? Then.. You should take my place." pushing herself from the ground, and within an instant kills the three villagers with her trademark dagger. She slits the throat, stomach, and legs, allowing one to slowly die within the time freeze.

"How lovely.." Draven said. "However, my darling. Your control over your time is coming to an end and we must "save" every soul here.."
