Chapter Thirty-five: Chrystal's POV

When we arrived at the chalet Sammy mentioned. I could not help but feel safe. She guided me to a chair and let me sit. Leo took my hand and let me sit next to him on a couch. I felt tired. I rested my head on his shoulder. Funny, every time I am with him I would feel warm.

'Good night,' I said sleepily.

'Good night,' he replied.

I dozed. In my sleep I saw my mother smiling at me. She looked like the photo I kept of her in my room. She took me into her arms and whispered into my ear.

'Leo will protect you daughter,' she said. 'He sleeps with you in the same room on a separate bed of course. For now you are freezing.'

'Mother,' I said turning red. 'Are you telling me what's happening now?'

She nodded her head. She took my hand and we walked. We found ourselves in an amusement park. It looked like the same amusement park where I saw Leo and his mother. 'Do you remember Ferris-chan?'

I nodded my head. 'I rode Ferris-chan with Leo and dad. It was fun since everyone on the ground looked like ants.'

'Would you like to ride it?' she asked.

I nodded my head. We walked into a compartment that already held a person inside. It was a little girl who looked exactly like me but younger and carefree. When the machine powered as we went around in circles.

'You see that over there?' my mother pointed.

In the distance I could see nothing but darkness. 'That's where you became blind, but your hearing, taste, and touch have increased. But if you look down you'll see the things that are happening now.'

I looked down to see myself sleeping in the arms of Leo who kept me close to him. I felt my face turn red, but I did not mind. I was close to Leo, not like anybody was going to pop out of nowhere and arrest him.

'Chrystal how about we talk to your younger self?' My mother suggested.

I nodded my head and sat down. The younger I smiled.

'Hi, I'm Chrystal Anne Drakos! My mum and papa are really nice and they help me with everyday problems. I met Sammy when she was bullied by her cousin and I have known Karen since I was born since her mother and my mother were great friends. Of course, Karen's mother is none other than Khione. But don't fret whenever I'm around those two never fight unless I did something wrong.'

I listened to her conversation, memories flashed by. I could remember everything. I knew why my mother brought me here for. She smiled, 'Regain your memories and live happily with Leo.'

The Ferris wheel stopped. The door opened and hands grabbed me outside. I was falling to the ground, I shouted out my mother's name but she just smiled sweetly at me. 'Regain your memories and live happily with Leo.'

I woke up gasping for air, it was no dream, and I truly did lose my ability to see. I felt Leo right beside me. His arms wrapped around me. I slipped his arms from me and silently walked off of the bed. I let my hearing and touches are my guide. I felt a door handle I slowly opened it. The cool breeze hit my face. I stepped outside and closed the door behind me.

The moon's rays hit me, the cold unbearable wind made my ears turn red. I could hear Karen's voice inside of my head. Her voice was soft.

'Chrystal, there's a reason I liked hanging out with you. You've been caring to everyone you know and you have rescued me several times I cannot count. The reason why Sammy and I fought so much was because of our line of work. She knew you were a descendant of Hyperion but wished not to tell you. I wanted to but if I were tell you, you would blame yourself for your mother's death. My mother Khione respected your mother. She does not approve of you and Leo together.'

'Karen,' I breathed. 'How come you wished not to show yourself to me?'

'I only wish to see you smile. I went to Olympus and begged Apollo to heal your eyes. Of course there was also a result. I can never see you again, only when you're alone then I will be able to see you. Chrystal, please stay safe. I have for a doubt think you and Leo should be together. I'm sorry my friend.'

'Karen!' I shouted. 'Karen, you don't have to do it! I'm fine without eyes!'

'I'm sorry old friend.'

Slowly the darkness I saw was hinting light. At first it was a soft light blue, the same as Karen's eyes. Then the colour turned lighter and lighter, I saw a glimpse of Karen's face. She smiled a sad smile. I felt her hug. It was warm which was unlike her. Tears fell from my face. 'I'll miss you,' I whispered.

My eyes began to go back to their original colour of dark. Karen looked at me with her light blue eyes. 'You've hinted a bit of Hyperion's eye colour,' she smiled. 'Dark black eyes with specks of red, looks great on you.'

'Return back to me yes?' I asked showing my signature toothy smile.

'Of course,' she smiled back mischievously. 'I have to go, my time is up. Visit me in Canada okay?'

I nodded my head furiously. Karen smiled one last time and disappeared into the snow. I looked at the night sky and smiled sadly. My friend gone forever never to return unless if I am alone by myself or if I'm able to visit her in Canada.
