The next morning, Myde got up and had a plan forming in his mind. He opened the book that he found and looked through it. There was nothing in it except the name of the owner which was Ienzo, but it was damaged from being in the water for too long. He got to the last page and found something, it looked like a locket or a charm of some sort. It had the initials 'M.S.' on it; he looked at it as it became familiar. He dropped it back into the book and closed it. Putting the book aside, he left the house and went the library. Not knowing why he wanted to go there, he went there anyway. Betaleana had plans with her girl friends, so for the day he was by himself. He entered the library and went to find a book on summoning, if there was any such thing… and to his surprise there was. There were two kinds of summoner's as he found out. One kind was the kind he was talking about yesterday.
The other was what Lourd was talking about. He found one that looked like it had all kinds of summoning. He opened it up and looked up his 'summoning' in the table of contents. Shockingly, he found it in there. He closed it and went to the front desk. The receptionist there looked at him.
"May I help you?" she asked.
"Yes…can I buy this book here or do I have to go to a book store?" he asked.
"Yes, you can buy that here."
"How much is it?"
"Fifteen munny."
"I'll buy it."
He handed the book to the receptionist so she could scan it; then he gave her the money when it rung up as the book was sold.
"Thanks." Myde replied as he took the book and walked out of the library.
On his way home, he ran into Rayne.
"Why you little…"Rayne started to say then he saw it was Myde. "Oh…uh…um…sorry about that. I didn't see you… please don't hurt me."
Myde laughed. "Why would I hurt you?" Myde asked confused.
"I…I …I don't know."
"Can you tell me something?" Myde asked.
"Y-yeah…anything."
"What happened? You know during the fight?"
"Why…why do you want to know that?"
"Please…just tell me…I want to know."
Rayne looked at Myde weird. "You were there…you beat me at my own sport. Why do you want to know the details?"
"I don't remember it, that's all."
"Oh…okay. I'll tell you…After I discovered that you weren't running away when we were on the beach I knew that you were standing up for yourself, you had a huge smile on your face and got focused right away.
'What's the matter, Myde, Do I have you cornered?' I asked.
In your dreams, Rayne. Why don't you look around?' you answered.
I looked around and noticed that we were on the beach.
'This….this is where that kid died…' I stated.
'Three years ago, by your hand was it not?'
'It was an accident; it wasn't supposed to go that far.'
'So…the truth comes out of the bully of all bullies. Are you sure you want to fight me on my turf?'
'Your turf? You normally run from fights.' I said in disbelief at what you had said.
'True, but I run here…to my sanctuary. The one place where I feel like myself.' You told me.
'Enough talk, Myde, I know that you'd be running as soon as I through the first punch.'
'You sure about that?'
You ran into the water and were listening to the waves crashing.
I yelled at you saying 'Quit wasting time.' since you had your back towards me.
You then heard me call your name, and you turned around and found me on the shoreline, you pulled up your hands into fighting position. You locked your focus on me and threw the first punch. I was shocked that you did. But your hands didn't make contact with my face, the water did. I wiped my face off with my hand.
'Come any further and you'll get drenched even worse.' You yelled.
I ignored it. You ran up and punched me again at this moment I noticed that the water was mimicking your moves.
You had gotten distracted for a moment and I took that moment to attack. But before I made contact, you jumped and did a double flip in the air; getting me even wetter than I was when you threw the first punch.
'Enough games, Myde, and fight.' I shouted.
'I'm not playing any games, Rayne, I told you were on my turf…aren't you understanding why?'
I ran up to you and got hold of your collar that was when I noticed that you were possessed by something.
'What the hell…' I yelled as I released you and threw you into the deepest part of the beach's swim area.
I thought that you had drowned, but you surprised me by jumping up out of the water and threw me on the shore.
You were there next to me with in a blink of an eye.
'What the hell are you, Myde?' I yelled horrified.
'You don't deserve an answer to that question…instead I'm going to let you think what you want about me.'
I took the opportunity to throw sand into your eyes. When the sand hit your eyes, you didn't seem notice it I then threw a punch in your stomach and you fell, I smiled then thinking that you were giving up.
'So much for being on your turf, Myde.' I brought up my hands for one last punch. As I threw my right hand towards your face; you knocked it out of the way before it made contact and hit me in the face with your left hand. It had sent me flying at this point I was scared for what you might do to me.
So I got up from where I was after I had fallen to the ground from the hit. 'How did a wimp like you get so good at fighting?' I asked.
'It comes naturally; when I want it…there is no question to it.'
I was on my feet and was trying to steady myself. Knowing that I wasn't going to win the fight I waited until I had common ground, I then turned around and ran away. '
Shortly after that Betaleana came to me and asked me for more detail on what happened. After I told her, I asked her why she wanted to know. She told me that you had fainted after I left. I was shocked to hear that and asked if you were alright. She answered with 'I don't know.'" Rayne ended his story with this.
"That's all that happened? Nothing bizarre happen."
"Nothing that I know of…why do you ask?"
"I'm just wondering that's all. Oh…What did you see in my eyes? I am curious at what you'd say. Betaleana said that when she asked you that you told her that 'it was like looking into the pits of a watery grave…an empty black grave.' Is that true on what you told her?"
"Yeah, it's true. It was like that and you looked like you were possessed by something."
"If you were to guess at what that something was…what would you say?"
"Why are you asking me this?"
"Because I want to know that's why."
"Well, if I had to guess at it. I would say that you were possessed by a water Demon it would explain why most of our fight was in the water…and why your eyes were pure Aquamarine."
Myde was taking all of this into account with what his siblings had given him through their mind connection. Every action that he had seen had matched up perfectly with what Rayne had told him.
"Thank you Rayne, that really helped me clear up a few things."
"Anytime." Rayne then got up from where they had taken seats and left.
Myde went on to his way to home, when he reached his house he went to his room and dropped off the book he bought on his bed. Then he went to the cliffs and relaxed as he looked in the book that had the locket inside some more. When the sun was resting on the horizon, Myde got up and headed for home. He paused just for a second to take a look at the horizon. The sea was very silent today…something must've happened somewhere. Suspicion overwhelmed him as he headed back towards his home.
