Chapter 2: An Unexpected Meeting





"What are you doing here?" she asked the man stunned. He ignored her question.

"Nice daughter you've got there." he said staring at Selene. Insanely she knew he was up to something.

"What do you want?" she asked him suspiciously.

"Nothing really, just to save you and your daughter from that monster over there." his voice was no longer the heavenly voice she use to remember. It was cold and heartless.

"Monster? If anyone's a monster it's you Allen." she shot back at him.

"How can you love someone so evil Mikaru? Two times he had tried to destroy all of Gaea. Can you really believed he has changed?" his voice continued to grow colder, sending chills down her spine.

Minako looked over at the playground and say Mikaru talking to a tall man with long blonde hair. "Hey, who's Mikaru talking to?" she wondered aloud. Folken turned to see. He instantly stood up and walked over towards her. Minako and Naoko decided to follow.

"What do you want Allen Schazar?" Folken said as he approached the two.

"Well, if it isn't the king of evil himself." Allen sneered

"Allen, just leave me and my family alone." Folken said to him calmly.

"Oh, I'll leave Mikaru and her daughter alone but you, no. Not after what you had tried to do to Gaea. You can't be trusted." with that, he disappeared in a blue pillar of light. Selene walked up to her parents.

"Mother, who was that man and why did he say father tried to destroy all of Gaea before?" Mikaru looked at her daughter shocked.

"How did you know he had said that?" she asked rather confused. She was to far away from them to have heard.

"I'm not exactly sure, all I know is that I could hear very clearly what you two were talking about."

"Maybe we should be heading back." Naoko suggested. Mikaru nodded and agreed. It was starting to get late.

"I know why," Folken whispered into Mikaru's eye as they left.



Later that night after Mikaru had tucked Selene into bed, she went to have a talk with Folken. They both went into Naoko's study with her permission. "How Folken?" Mikaru asked immediately.

"She acquired it from me. Remember, I'm a draconian, a descendant of Atlantis. We have psychic abilities." Mikaru had forgotten that.

"Do you think we she tell her of her heritage?" Mikaru asked as she slumped back of the couch. Folken shook his head no.

"Not now, It's too early in her life for her to know." even though she was very mature for her age Folken felt that they should wait till she was at least into her tenth year to tell her. By then she should be able to understand it better. After their chat, they checked up on Selene who was fast asleep. Quietly Mikaru shut the door and with Folken, headed to their room.

"Hey Mikaru, who was that guy at the park?" Naoko asked.

"That was Allen. He's from Gaea and he was the one who, you know about seven years ago is the reason I came back." it took Naoko a few minutes to refresh her memory.

"Oh, so what's he doing here?" Mikaru and Folken both shrugged their shoulders. Neither of them had an idea.

The following morning Folken went to wake up Selene. To his dismay, she was gone. He searched the rest of the house with Mikaru. They figured she was playing a game with them. She had done this before on Gaea in the Dragon Fortress numerous times. Mikaru went and searched Selene's room. As she was looking around, on the back of the door there was an arrow with a note attached to it. Mikaru took it down and read it. When she finished, she covered her mouth and let out small sobs. Folken ran into the room and saw his wife sitting on the ground crying and holding a note. He knelt down beside her and tried to comfort her.

"What's the matter?" he asked wrapping his arm around her shoulder. With a shaky hand, she handed him the note. He read it over quickly and he began to frown.
