Chapter 3: The Messiah and The Silencer

Ryu pounded on Haruka's door, screaming at her to open up, Come on!! I'm sure I didn't do anything that crazy last night!! I didn't wake up with any bruises on my face, so I'm sure that you kept me under control!! Please just open the door!! He continued banging on the chamber door not giving up until thirty minutes later. FINE THEN! BE THAT WAY!!

Meanwhile, Haruka was pouring over every book she could find that contained the words Water Eclipse in it, determined to find out what the beautiful girl of her dreams was searching for. She glanced at her watch, 2:30. Multiple hushes came from the surrounding crowd, furious at the sudden outbreak in the resource room. Shooting glares at everyone, she packed up the remaining books and dashed out the door, jumping into her Range Rover to meet Ryu back at her place. She found him walking out of the lobby of her hotel, looking rather annoyed. She shouted, trying to catch his attention as she pulled to a stop. He turned around, he face lighting up with happiness. I thought you were ignoring me or something!! I can't quite remember what happened last night ... and I thought I did something!!! Haruka gave him a skeptical look, Alright, a) take that as a sign if you can't remember anything, and b) like you could even do something right when you're completely conscious. He glared at her for a few moments before she got out of her car, dragging a heavy bag behind her. Come on.

Back in her hotel room, books littered the floor, the two of them flipping through the pages of encyclopedias and vintage historic books. This is ridiculous, we're not gonna find anything because you were just _dreaming_!! Ryu stated, throwing what seemed like the hundredth book to the pile of rejects. How many times do I have to tell you, I WASN'T DREAMING!! I KNOW WHAT I SAW! Ryu shook his head and continued to flip through the next book, Ok ok, calm down. We know you're going through your pms time. She gave him a look serious enough to pipe him down for the next several hours. HERE IT IS! He suddenly bursted, pushing a pile of books out of the way to sit next to Haruka.

The Water Eclipse - not scientifically proven.

Great, that helped so much ... Ryu rolled his eyes, sighing in disbelief. Haruka glared at him pointing to the small arrow signifying it's continuance on the following page. Oh ... heh ... He flipped the page and continued to read,

Named after it's reaction to water, either that of casting immense amounts of light or darkness. First found and used in ancient Egypt by emperors to control the lands. When placed in the hands of the Silencer, said to have produced the Eternal Darkness, an era where all life was annihilated. However when placed in the hands of the Messiah, Eternal Life is produced, an era of creation and perfection. Last used in ancient times, lost during the Final Revolution.

... I don't get it. The man said, getting a firm push from Haruka. Honestly, how did we become friends? However her attention was more focused on what was underneath the text; a sketch of both the Messiah and the Silencer. They look the exact same! Ryu exclaimed, Except for those marks on their foreheads. That's gonna be a real pain telling them apart. Ryu, that's her. That's the woman in my dreams.
