Part Two : the Shade of Loneliness
"W.. Wait.." too late.. the fairy was gone.. he could asked for the fairy to
talk with him more.. he wanted someone he could talked to. Then he got the idea,
he'll ask for friend tomorrow..
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The morning has come.. Once again the golden ray of light greeted him to another
empty day. Duo adjusted his eyes.. 'Was that a dream?' He cleared his head and
stood up among the deep green forest. He looked up, those thick leaf trees and
overripe fruits were smiling at him in his imagination. Each steps of him was
carpeted by the green moss and the squirrels were asking him whether he had a
good dream.. He whispered 'yes' in response and said 'Yes, I think I had a good
dream.. that little golden fairy..'
He sighed, another day just began and he must wait till the moon come up for its
end. He close his eyes painfully..
'When will this stop?..' his mind asked. nobody could answer this and nobody
will..
Duo sat at the damp root of the tree. He looked up and found that its branches
and leaves covered the entire area..
'It may lived over a hundred years.. God.. please don't let me live this long..'
He wanted to cry, but he couldn't.. he cried too much and he realized that it
didn't change anything, he still lonely, still jealous.. and he hated that. So
he thought about the good dream he had, that little fairy.
'What's his name?.. Quatre?' and he dared to said it out "Quatre."
Suddenly, the golden ball of light was formed before him and turned into a
smiling fairy. "Hello again! Duo."
Duo was startled, he thought it was a dream.. "Qua..tre.."
"Yes, yes. As I said call me whenever you want as long as you still have a last
wish. Oh! and your hut was ready! Where do you want it to be?"
Duo took a deep breath 'Oh, this isn't a dream, this isn't a dream.' He looked
around himself, there was a swamp and a huge tree nearby.. "Right here." he
said.
"Are you sure? This is the center of deep forest, it will be hard for you to
communicate with the others.."
"That's what I want.." Duo lowered his head. Quatre moved to sat on his shoulder
and tried to sooth the little boy. "I'm sorry.."
"That's all right." And he curved a fake smile.
"Ok! here we go!" Quatre flied off his shoulder with his little wings and waved
his tiny staff, the golden light from his staff like a thousand of firefly was
forming a big spiral shape..
"Wow, that's beautiful!" Duo exclaimed excitingly. Quatre smiled at his
childrish act and thought 'At least, I can make him happy.'
Finally, the hut appeared. Duo got in, it was a small hut; one bedroom and space
for a set of table and living quarter. "Thanks so much Quatre!"
"No problem. Hey, can you read, Duo?"
"Yes a little, my mom taught me."
"Then, come here." Quatre guided him into the bedroom and waved his staff to the
empty shelf. Then, the number of books appeared.
"Oh, Thanks Quatre. I think I can learn to be like the others by myself"
"That's good, Duo! Keep trying" he smiled "What else do you want, Duo?"
"I..er.. Quatre.."
"What?"
"Can you stay with me?.. I want .. a friend.." Duo hide his eyes from Quatre,
even he was used to being rejected but.. this maybe his only chance..
Quatre really sorry when he heard that request, even how much he wanted to be
with him but he couldn't.. he didn't 'being sent' here for that request..
"Duo.. I.. I can't be with you, I'm sorry but.. hey, I can bring someone for
you!"
"Thanks Quatre, but .. don't, I don't think there will be someone accept me.."
Duo swallowed his sobs.. he tears came out before he knew he was crying..
another rejection..
"But.. I don't want you to be alone.."
"I was alone all my life, I must deal with it. Thanks so much for what you've
done for me Quatre.."
"I.." Quatre wanted to insist but judging from the boy's tone, he didn't think
he could change the boy's decision.. "Alright, Duo. Remember that you still can
call me.. bye."
Duo wiped his tears and swore that he will not cry anymore..
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Ten years after..
In the small hut at the heart of deep forest..
The morning light sneaked in the sheer curtain and took it place over the
sleeping body. The grown up hybird child blinked his eyes open; the violet eyes
under his long eyelash seemed to lack of expression, many years of living alone
melted him to be a living doll. He looked out of the window and reached his hand
out to felt the wind.. 'Winter is coming' he told himself.
Duo stretched his wings and touched his mild feather, everytime he touched them
he couldn't help touched the tip of his eyes too.. They were always be the mark,
sometime he wished he could forget.. but..
He cleared his thought and went out of the hut. He walked carefully along the
slippery path, until he reach the swamp. Slowly He took off his dusty robe, the
only garment he wore and sank himself to the icy water. His pale skin reflected
the sunlight. His thick lock of chestut hair cascade on the crytal surface,
floating like a thread of silk..
Through the magic mirror in the great chamber, Odin was watching him.. his
Cobalt eyes stared at the light frame figure that seemed to radiant like a
nymph. If he didn't know before he must misunderstood him as a girl since his
face was sweeter than any other living creature that he've ever met. Odin
touched his fingers to his lips mindlessly but his face shown no expression.. he
sighed.. and waved his hand caused the vision on the mirror to fade out..
Odin the Great, the Great Odin.. whatever angels and demons called him, he still
be himself. He never let any emotion effected him. He was the King; the highest
ruler.. and he must remember that he would treat everyone equally.. but since 10
years ago his whole ideal was collapsed, since the day he saw the little boy in
the forest.. He just wanted to help the boy so he sent his fairy to gave him
three wishes, even the boy accepted only one wish and insisted to live on his
own.. but Odin never took his eyes of the boy.. the whole 10 years, he've been
watching him.. he should let him go but recently he found that he couldn't.. and
he didn't know why..
