Once Sutokeru was dragged out of the room, Isamu had his things to say to Rin: "You do relise he won't be with us for very long, don't you, Lunagel?!"

Everyone else that was still left in the room had no idea what he was talking about, so Kai asked: "What do you mean?"

"Remember what he had said?" Isamu started, "That everything has it's counterpart? A way in and a way out. Two sides to one coin. Yes and no. Fire and water. Right and wrong. GOOD AND EVIL!"

The fact that he had put an emphasis to the last three words he said didn't seem to make Rin feel any better.

"What does all that mean?" even Urara couldn't figure it out.

"Are you trying to say that..." Hikaru started, but couldn't finish.

"Zedd was created because of a necromancer. And a necromancer was made after Zedd killed him!" Isamu explained, "These two only exist because of each other!"

"Wait!" Tsubasa could not understand, "Are you saying that they are each other's counterpart?"

"Is it that hard to believe?" Miyuki started, "They have both come directly from the Abyss. They both use magic, though one uses it for power whilst the other uses it for justice. They are both fixated on one and the same girl, but one wants to hurt her while the other wants to love her! They are much alike, though completely the opposite of each other!"

"And one cannot exist without the other!" Isamu added.

"Tou-san..." Urara tried to say something to her father, but didn't know the right words to use.

"You're saying that..." even Kai had a hard time believing it, "That if Zedd's defeated... Ma... Sutoke... he will be dead too?"

After Isamu nodded, Makito started his own say: "Is there no way that we can stop that from happening?"

"Two counterparts are in constant battle with one another!" Isamu answered, "If we intervene with them, we can only make things worse."

"So even if we help him..." Hikaru started.

"Even if we help him save the girl..." Kai continued.

"He... must fight Zedd alone?" Makito couldn't believe it.

"He's going through all the trouble, and drags us in it... but if he won't be alive when..." even the tough Tsubasa knew not how to feel about this.

"So, at least bearing all that in mind, don't you think you should come clean with him, Lunagel?" Isamu asked her.

This time, there was no way in which anyone could know what he was talking about, until he explained: "I went to see Magiel earlier. She has had a vision about Abyszard and you earlier. One in which she saw your aura engulfing you, and that same aura engulfing Abyszard! If she'd seen that happening between me and my children, that would not matter, for they are my children, but seeing that between you and him..."

Each one member of the family had their own thought about this

"You don't mean...?" Makito asked.

"Can't be...!" Urara went on.

"Must be a mistake!" Tsubasa added.

"No way!" Kai was startled.

"Not possible!" Hikaru stated.

At long last, Isamu asked Rin what he wanted to ask her all along: "You are his mother! Aren't you?!"

Suddenly, Houka returned into the secret room: "Hi everybody! I've shown him his room, his way around the house! I'm sure he'll feel..."

She stopped when she noticed the looks on everybody's faces, and noticed the mood had changed since she left the room.

"What's wrong?" Houka laughed, "Somebody died?"
