My Pov
Today was Saturday and it was also the day I had invited everyone over. I hoped they'd be able to come. I heard a knock on my door. I looked through the peephole and saw Lucas. I opened the door to see he had a bag and sleeping bag.
"You came over!" I exclaimed.
"Of course I did." Lucas said. I welcomed him in and got him some tea. Just then, there was another knock on the door. I looked through the peephole and saw the rest of my friends. I welcomed them in and we started talking. Soon, dinner rolled around.
"Talia, where's your grandma and uncle?" Katie asked.
"They'll be back later, so they told us to have dinner without them." I said.
"You know how to cook!?" Nate asked, shocked. I nodded.
"When'd you learn how to do that?" Eddie asked.
"I learned shortly after moving in with Uncle Ken. You see, before, he was always so busy and would never get home until I was already asleep and would be gone by the time I woke up. So, for the first year that I lived here, I was alone." I said.
"You had to have been lonely." Katie said. I shook my head.
"You forget, my house is never really empty. All my Yo-kai were with me, so I never lacked companionship." I said. I finished making dinner and served it. I even made some for Whisper and the others.
"This is almost as good as my mom's!" Bear exclaimed. I smiled, happy everyone liked it. After eating, I got late so we all dressed in our PJs. Bear's were orange, Eddie's were green, Katie's were pink, Lucas's were yellow, Nate's were blue and mine were white.
"Talia, was the reason you wanted us to come over?" Lucas asked. I thought for a minute.
"Yeah, just wait here a minute." I said. I went into the bathroom and closed the door.
Lucas's Pov
For a while, we heard water running. Soon, the sound stopped and Talia came out, with a towel wrapped around her head. That's when I noticed her eyes were dark gray now. Like mine.
"Uh... Talia? Why are you eyes dark gray?" Nate asked. She took off the towel, to reveal her hair was royal blue now.
"You see... at my old school, I had a very good friend who was more like my twin since we were never seen without each other. However 1 day, out of the blue, she started a rumor that I had a hair and eye transplant. Everyone kid in my school laughed at me, teased me, called me 'fake' and 'ugly'. So when I came here, I dyed my hair and wore contacts. But, I feel I can trust you guys not to tell anyone." Talia said. Katie's reaction was surprising to everyone.
"Your hair is so beautiful! I've never seen such a pretty shade of blue! Can I brush it?" Katie asked, ecstatic. Talia was shocked but nodded. She gave Katie a brush and Katie brushed Talia's hair.
"None of us think your hair and eyes are ugly. They're lovely." I said. Talia blushed a little.
"That they are." a voice said. We all looked to see Talia's grandmother standing in the doorway.
"Hi Grandma." Talia greeted.
"Talia, Lucas, I'm glad to see you both are together. There's something I must tell you. But to do so, I must assume a different appearance." her grandmother said. She looked at me. I realized what she wanted me to do. I took out her medal.
"Come on out my friend. Calling; Frostina! Yo-kai Medal, do your thing!" I exclaimed. The pink spiral of light surround Talia's grandmother.
Summoning: Charming!
Alarming! Boom Boom! Walla Walla Dance Dance! Charming!
Frostina!
Talia's grandmother changed to Frostina and everyone's expression changed to shock.
"Grandma... you're a... Yo-kai?" Talia asked, shocked.
"I have been for a long time. I'll tell you that story later, but the story I want to tell you is about your real mother and father." Frostina said.
"Real? You were adopted?" Eddie asked. Talia nodded.
"Uncle Ken's brother and his wife found me wondering through Mount Wildwood when they were going back to the country." Talia said. She found in Mount Wildwood? That's where my parents had found me.
"I died when your mother, Naomi, was only 10, but I was reborn as Frostina and watch over her. One day, she met a strange man, named Enma. He was about twice her age, but they became good friends. When she turned 23, your grandfather tried to marry her off to a nobleman. She didn't want to go through with the marriage because she had fallen in love with Enma. She ran away and hid for several days, but she was found and killed by the nobleman." Frostina said. Tears started filling Talia's eyes.
"But then, how was Talia born if her mother died?" Bear asked.
"Well, you see, Naomi was reborn as a Yo-kai and it turned out that not only was Enma a Yo-kai as well, but he was the king of the Yo-kai world." Frostina explained. That surprised everyone.
"So... I'm a Yo-kai princess?" Talia asked.
"Yes, but the story's not over yet. It took 50 years after they married for Naomi to become pregnant, but when she did it was the happiest day of their lives. Although, their joy multiplied when it turned out that Naomi had twins!" Frostina said.
"So, does Talia have a twin brother or a twin sister?" Katie asked.
"A brother." Frostina answered.
"Where is he? What happened to him and my parents?" Talia asked.
"Your parents, I can't tell you yet. But as for your brother, I need you to get your key." Frostina said. Talia got up and opened a small box on her nightstand. She took out a silver key that had a seafoam green circle with a purple jewel in the middle. "Lucas, I believe you have 1 identical to Talia's." I took it out my bag. It was identical, but the color of the middle and jewel were flip-flopped.
"Are you saying that...?" I asked, feeling my heart rise. Frostina nodded.
"Yes. Lucas, you are Princess Talia's twin brother, son of King Enma and Queen Naomi, Prince of the Yo-kai World." Frostina said. Both me and Talia looked at each other. It made sense. All the dreams and visions I had, they all made sense. Talia began crying, so I hug my friend. My twin sister. She gripped on to me.
My Pov
My grandma was a Yo-kai, my parents were Yo-kai, I was a Yo-kai, but most importantly, Lucas was my twin brother. The only other family member I know about.
"I also want to thank the 4 of you, for looking after my grandchildren." Grandma said. Grandma glowed and they and me acquired her medal. "And I want to give each of you these." I left and brought a large cloth, with grandma holding all 4 corners. She gently let go of the corners and reveal 5 beautiful flowers similar to mine.
.Lucas's flower was bright-yellow with filaments coming from the center and each one had a small gold dot that glowed like a firefly(Star Darlings' Chatterburst recolored).
.Bear's flower was a bright, shiny amber orange color. It had symmetrical layers of pointy petals that had it sparkle like a star(Star Darlings' Golden Roar recolored).
.Eddie's flower kind of reminded me of a Ferris Wheel. Green filaments shot out from the center and each one held a golden star(Star Darlings' Vertessema).
.Nate's flower was firey-red with petals that surround the center in a mound of tightly packed leaves. It was longer leaves that curled out from the mound(Star Darlings' Florafierce).
.Katie's flower was bright pink-on-pink with curlicue filaments that had small little white drops on them that glowed. It was similar to my Skywinkle, but it's center was like a tulip(Star Darlings' Blushbelle).
"Grandma, where'd you find these?" I asked.
"A place in the Yo-kai world you can only go to in your dreams. They're called Wish Blossoms." Grandma said. Everyone was in awe by the flower grandma had given them. Then, I remembered that last reason I wanted to have everyone here.
"Guys, there is something else I need to tell you." I said. Everyone looked at me. I swallowed. "I about a month I'm going to have to go to the hospital to have a very risky surgery done."
"Why?" Katie asked.
"I have this virus in my body and now it's gotten to the point where I only have 2 choices: Go through with the surgery and go peacefully or suffer until the disease kills me." I said.
"Wait, so either way, you'll die?" Nate asked. I nodded. Everyone, mostly Lucas was panicked.
"Guys, even when it happens, I'll just be reborn as a Yo-kai." I said. I was trying to make them see the bright side of the situation. Soon, we all deiced to go to sleep. Me and Lucas slept close to each other and held hands. Needless to say, no one slept good that night.
