Break it Free
"Terreno in movimento!" I chanted and the rock hiding the entrance moves.
"That's amazing Kai!" Aichi praised me but I feel it hard to smile yet because now I can feel a strong power of a mage inside the cave. Aichi bravely walked in the cave with Miwa, me, and Kenji following behind. He stopped as he heard a sinister laugh that died down after a little while. In front of us stood the girl I fell in love with. Her light-violet hair tied up to two but she was still beautiful. She hold her long staff and put on an emotionless face. Her mask still on her face and her hair let down. Tokura Misaki, the girl who still have my heart in her grasp.
"Misaki" I whispered to myself. But I know with mages abilities, through the water in the wind she heard what I said. What fearful from being a Dragon Keeper is that you are given the ability to use the forbidden magic for free. A forbidden magic called, Life. Life goes down to earth and goes back up. Element called life can be mastered by every mage. It's a bit complicated... a lot complicated but it's easy if you studied it. The kingdom made it forbidden to use this, because controlling people and calling people or animals or even dead bodies to life can break the balance of the world.
Life is the ability given to the Dragon Keeper ONLY.
"I didn't hear anyone visiting today from the High Priestess" Misaki said. Her bubbly voice long gone. I gripped my staff hard, not wanting to listen to her voice anymore. Misaki laughed again and show her staff to us after chanting, "Ascolto in diretta" Then suddenly the ground shake. Dead bodies, given the element of life dug their way up to the ground and appear. From Misaki, they were all ordered to defeat us.
"Presente il fuoco " I chanted. Fire appear out of nothing and burn half of them alive. Aichi, Kenji and Miwa used their sword to cut their way in. Aichi was shouting hard trying to make way for himself to his sister. Kenji and Miwa used all of their power to make a way for Aichi. I stood there chanting spells and either burning them or burying them again. Our hard work pay but it's not finished yet cause Misaki kept laughing. Then more bodies appear it was starting to get hard.
Aichi got closer and was now so close to Misaki. He put his all into his one attack but Misaki caught him with her strong staff. Their face was so close even Misaki can feel Aichi's hard breathing. Misaki whispered sinisterly at Aichi, 'History will repeat itself'. Aichi was pulled back by one of the monster. He hurt his head and his hand, which is starting to bleed. He fell to the ground and Misaki started to leave. But Aichi didn't give up, he stood up and grabbed his sword. Misaki was shocked someone can still stand up, so she summon more, but Aichi just shrugged it off and ran to Misaki right away. Aichi screamed his twin sister name hard and Misaki was thinking what scene does Aichi's screaming remind her of.
"Misaki! Don't! Misaki! Don't accept the mask!" Kai's shouting voice rung in her ears. It was only a few second but her past memories rushed into her. She saw the memory where she saw Kai fighting other soldiers to help her and where she was forced to wear the mask. She saw the memory of her life with Kai and Miwa even though left by her parents.
Everything for about half a second stop. Aichi used this very second to break the mask. The black mask which was trapping the real Misaki broke on her face. First thing Misaki did was cry happy tears for taking back the memories she lost as she fell to the ground. Just in time, Kai caught her. Aichi ran past Misaki to a place where he saw his twin sister singing. That is what he thought. Kai saw as Aichi fell to the floor, exhausted.
