Mary felt something heavy and sharp in her right arm. She opens her eyes and saw a snow-white falcon sitting in her arms. She was spellbound to its blood colored eyes, then she felt its sharp claws dig in her arms and it hurts. Then the falcon communicates with her thoughts, telepathy " Georges Sebastine Gabrielle Morell-Crux " " Georges Sebastine Gabrielle Morell-Crux " she spoke " Georges Sebastine Gabrielle Morell-Crux " she repeated. Her heart began to throb faster until it's hard for her to breathe like she was going to die, the falcon vanished. Then she found herself in a dark tunnel running towards the light. And she woke up.
She found herself in an unknown room. She was lying in a king size bed covered with a heavy royal blue curtain with matching blue pillows and counterpane. The walls were painted with a golden yellow color that gives a nice blend with the heavy navy curtains that closed the windows. A desk beside the bed has a soldier toy and dark bordered picture frame with a picture of two gray haired young boys wearing white sleeves, they were smiling as they look at each other. The room has shelves and thick books that are neatly placed. A glass table is placed at the center with blue colored sofa. The left corner has two paint I that neatly hung on the wall - one is a spring where new plans began to grow and the other is the sunrise in a calm sea.
A door was in between the paintings. She moved herself a little and felt something comfy in her side, she pull the blanket aside revealing the ash colored teady bear that Tristan always bring with him. She hold the stuff and feel its fur. Then the door flew open, she turns and found herself looking in herself, she was confused why she was seeing her own self, who walks towards her. It stops in front of her and glares "what have you done with my body human?" She heard her spoke angrily, and Mary didn't know what to say. Then her other self, grab the stuff she was holding. "W-why did we have the same face? Mary asked but her other self just rolled its eyes like she normally respond to other annoying people "please don't be rude, are you by any chance C-christie?" Again she received a cold glare "our bodies swapped, stupid".
Mary stood up and look at her reflection in the mirror and see the appearance of Tristan. She was in his body and she's not drunk from last night. "so how should we return to our own bodies? " Mary asked " I don't know but we have to find the way before the third day? " " so what will happen if we don't get back in our own bodies before the third day? " "Simple, it means that we will be trapped in this bodies forever ". Mary remains silent and gawks for a while then she remembered her dream about the white falcon "the Falcon" She spoke and look at her body's arm, she saw a mark of the claw " it communicates with me and I spoke something ...But I don't remember it " " it must be a code or spell " Tristan answered still in Mary's body, he sit on the bed and hugged the ash bear stuff. The white falcon Christie dreamed must be 'him' and he was nowhere watching them from afar. He looked at his own body walking towards the window and open the heavy curtains, then she stops mid-way and closes it. " I'm sorry" Mary spoke "sunlight can't burn us, dummy" Now Tristan is looking at his own body who as looking back at him with interest "really?, but vampire's skin is sensitive to sunlight " and he wonders how much she know about vampires "your partially correct that's the usual but we are special, our blood is the purest " He answered but still in doubt why he's telling such thing to a cheap blood like her but she spoke with confident like nothing happened before.
Then somebody knocked on the door, he saw his own body's surprise look " what should we do? " " act like me you're responsible for this messed " he replied and went to the bathroom leaving Christie alone, his brothers should not find our about this. Mary in Tristan's body panicked for a while, how could she act arrogant like him, then slowly the door opened and Shun went in " sorry for the intrude...Troye wants to see you "Shun spoke in his calm nature. Mary remains silent from where she stood, looking at the Overlourd before her 'act arrogant ' she told herself or else they will be caught. Mary turns her back " okay " she replied emotionless. Shun went out of his brother's room. Tristan went out of the bath and they discussed what Shun just say " I'll be going with you " Tristan said " okay but won't they get suspicious? " " they will " " and? " " the Tristan they knew won't care about that, more importantly, act like me and don't act stupid "Tristan went out of the room and Mary followed behind closing the door.
They walk to a series of doors and turn to another corner with another series of doors that defines how big the manor is. Then they stopped at the last door " open it " Tristan command, Mary gulp and do what he says, she came inside the huge room that is as big as Tristan's room. Only that the room is furnished in red and golden color. She saw a man standing by the window, his back was facing her and slowly he turns to face her. She met his blood colored eyes that remind him of the white falcon, he has the same gray hair as Tristan. He was wearing black pants and a white button-up shirt that makes him hotter even though his gaze was cold as the rest of the brothers. " I don't expect that you and Christie were already in good terms " then he smile making Mary flush in surprise, ' very handsome ' she thought, so aside from Cedric another Overlourd knows how to smile " take a sit " he moved towards the maroon colored sofa and sit opposite to him, next to her was Tristan. " do you want some drinks? " Troye asked still smiling ' is this really Troye Overlourd?' He asked herself " no, let's get down to business " she spoke aloofly as she hide her agitation " fine, the reason why I called for you is to inform you that he's back and he was already here in this town "she just stared blankly at the Overlourd before her, she didn't know who was the he's that his talking " if you don't have any questions, you may leave ". Mary stood up and went out of Troye's room, Tristan followed behind and went back to Tristan's room.
In the room, Mary lounge on the sofa, opposite to her was Tristan, but what she see from her position was her furious face looking at her " sorry " she spoke " I need to go to your room " " you're going to leave me here? " she panic but Tristan just ignore her and stood, and left her. Mary stared at the place where Tristan sat. Tristan was frenzied but she can't blame him, she didn't like their situation either. He must be inside her room cooling off. An image of Tristan stripping off his clothes and taking a shower flash in mind. She promptly races towards her room and opens the door without knocking and horror struck when she heard the shower. She slowly walks and opens the bathroom door. She saw him staring at the mirror and she was relieved. Then she caught his attention " what do you want? " his voice was still cold even though he wasn't in his body " a...ah you're going to shower?" Mary asked " want to join? " Mary flinched at the remark " no, I am here to remind you that you're in my body- " " I'm not interested in your body " his sentence caused her to flush in anger and embarrassment " I know " " good " he replied. Slowly he lift the clothes his wearing and Mary grabbed his hands to keep him from removing it " what are you doing " he frowned at her " I thought you understand " " yes, but it doesn't mean that I won't take a bath " " but- " " plus, your body smells like foul and its sweaty " " hey, I am not those living on streets-" " but you smell like one so let go or else- " " let go Tristan " Mary heard a familiar voice from behind, she turns and met Shun's icy gaze " He-- what are you doing here?" she asked trying to sound calm "I'm asking you the same thing" "I have some business with Ma- Christie" "so, you want to taste cheap blood" "that's none of your business" Shun's gaze were like daggers shooting at her, sweat roll on her forehead but she tried to have a poker face as if she have a protection barrier that surrounds her, but she can't help but tremble and she shove her hands on her pants to hide it "Ummm...could, both of you get out" she heard him spoke from behind in a girly manner, blushing lightly, looking away, looking away avoiding hers' and Shun's gaze. She feels like her mouth just hangsopen 'she never acts that way' she shouts in her thoughts. Mary went out of the room quickly unable to take the sight before her.
At Tristan's room, she huffed herself on the sofa, they were almost caught and Shun's timing is the worst. But she can't erase the thought of Tristan acting like a piece of meat before his predators and she hates that he blushes, embarrassed and shy, his playing his part well. Now Shun will really think that she's PATHETIC. But right now, Tristan who wasn't interested in her body must be seeing it at the very moment and it scares her. She might be a cheap blood and her body is not foxy like a model nor her face isn't angelic- in short, she wasn't alluring at all. However, she still has a dignity. Tristan must be mocking her right now but she ignores it. Mary stood and went to the bathroom which is much bigger than what was in her room. She looks at her reflection in the mirror and thinks if she should shower or not. She touches her body and feels how masculine Tristan is. Her heart beats fast at the thought of washing his body, his hair, face and the bottom part. She flush and shake her head trying to erase the thought, she's acting like a pervert but isn't it fair for her to see his body since he also-- "NO!" she shout "no, no, no, it can't be" "what are you doing?" somebody spoke from behind, she turn on her heels and saw Dhaniel leaning on the door frame "you don't have to shout if you didn't want to shower". Mary remain silent as she stares at Dhaniel, she must act as normal as Tristan and they must not suspect "what are you doing here?" "to ask you" "about what?" "not what but who-its about Christie" Mary was unable to speak for a moment, she was nervous. If she messed, Tristan would surely kill her "you asked her to buy flowers?.. its quite suspicious does that mean that you won't kill her?" Her eyes widen in shock 'kill? Tristan want to kill her?' "why were you surprise, don't tell me you already forgot what she'd done" "of course I don'tforget that she hit me" "I thought she smacked you" 'shit!' "she does...yeah but it's also hitting" Dhaniel just eyed her and asked "would you take a bath or not?" "why'd you asked" "don't answer me with another question" "I'll take a bath so you may lea-" her statement was cut off when Dhaniel grabs her by the collar and drag her out of the room.
Mary didn't know where are they going but the next thing she knew was they were walking among the trees and she heard the rushing of waters. They continue to walk until they reached the spot. Mary's eyes bulges out in astonishment, she was never been in such sight before. A waterfall surrounded with trees and blooming flowers. The water is crystal clear and warm which is odd but it didn't bother her for she was mesmerized by its beauty "hey, don't act like it's your first time here" Dhaniel remove his shoes, unbutton his shirt and unbuckle his pants "w-what are you doing?" "don't ask for the obvious" he stated and remove his shirt revealing his nice body frame and six-pack abs, like he always works out. Mary didn't realize that she's been staring at his body for a while "are you just going to stare at me?" Mary looked away flushing a bit 'act normal' she told herself "of course not" "then undress" Mary looked back at Dhaniel who was only wearing dark shorts "okay" she mumbles, a little defiantly. She removes her shirt and pants until she's only wearing shorts. They stepped in the warm water and enjoy themselves. The water is refreshing and Mary takes her time warming her body. She can't hide the happiness and the smile escaping from her lips. Dhaniel splashed her some water and the next thing they knew is that they were playing like little kids. "I've never seen you this happy before" Dhaniel muttered "really?" "Ever since you lost 'him' you've changed a lot" Mary made a confuse look and didn't know what to respond "I understand if you didn't want to talk about it, you're still my younger brother after all" Dhaniel made a face ad give a soft smile. She looked at him dumbfounded and in disbelief 'so he knows how to smile' she quoted "you're a nice brother Dhaniel" Mary return a smile and they continue to splash water.
It was already afternoon when they went back home. She went towards Tristan's room. As soon as she gets inside, a familiar figure met her and as expected it was Tristan with his antagonistic gaze fixed at her "where have you been?" he asked in a deadly tone "I went out with Dhaniel don't worry he-" " you seemed happy flirting with him" "what?" "Your taking advantage of my body, human" "excuse me? First of all, I'm not flirting to your brother, secondly, I am not taking advantage of your body lastly, don't act like- like your...like you jealous" she quiver as she realizes what her last statement is "who says I'm jealous?" "you just say it" "don't be so assuming human, reverie is far from reality" "My name is Christie not human" "but you are" "whatever just call me Christie" "don't command me" "Hi, my name is Christie Wright" she spoke, walks towards Tristan and gestures her hand for a handshake "hi, my name is Chris-" "cut it out, I'm not befriending humans" "who says I'm befriending I'm just giving an introduction" "handshake isn't necessary for introduction" "wow!, your right, you're really smart". Tristan rolls his eyes and went out of the room before he accidentally kills his own body.
