Trinity of the Heart Part 1

Chapter 8

RECAP! Alright, so far not too much has happened. Mint and Maya got out of Aceila through Alak, who gave Mint the Silver magic.

She knows 3 spells for it so far, Flora, which gave her a body mostly made of flowers, Aceila, which can take her soul wherever she pleases and Teleport, which takes her body and soul elsewhere.

Meanwhile, Rue came to Carona to find it on fire and some of the people dead because Valen and Elroy, in Mint and Maya's bodies, destroyed it and many other towns. He helped Mel get the living back to her Alter, where they went over the strange events. Runis also picked on Rue a lot ^_^

 Next, Belle, Duke and Rod arrived and then, so did Mint and Maya. Mint and Maya were trapped in Belle and Mel's bodies for a little bit, then Mint used Aceila magic to go in Rue, then Flora to give herself a body. She also gave one to Maya. Mel then told Maya, Rod, Belle and Duke to go to Sivar to see the damage and see if Valen and Elroy were there.

Mel sent Mint, Rue and Runis to East Heaven to look for clues. She used Teleport. Right away, Alak stopped them and warned them about his younger sister, the Goddess of Pain and Great Aeon Osara. Mint gave Alak a Flora body and he went with them. Mint saw the townspeople were zombies. Really. Then Osara appeared with her puppets and after a while, they saw she's really just a child. However, she decided to let them go, only if they'd play Freeze Tag with her…

Mint: Fine, Osara, we'll play your little game but late, I'm going to hurt you so bad you'll wish you weren't the Goddess of Pain!

Osara: Geez, you're weird and violent. Anyway, let's see…I'll be it ok? You guys run away and I find you. If I find you, you freeze, ok?

Alak: Osara, what are you planning?

Osara: Huh? Whadaya mean?

Alak: You said Freeze Tag…this isn't the version I think it is, is it?

Osara: Uh-huh!

Alak: Then tell them…

Osara: Hee hee, if I catch you, you freeze!

Mint: DUH! It's called Freeze Tag!

Osara: No, not that freeze silly! I mean FREEZE!

Alak: If she touches you, then you turn into an ice sculpture.

Rue: WHAT?!

Osara: As Alak says, thems the breaks.

Rue: That's too dangerous! (Mint might get hurt, so could Runis!)

Osara: Na-uh!

Runis: HEY! How do we win?

Osara: Umm…if in one hour I don't catch you all, then you're free!

Mint: Figures, lots of running and I'm in a dress…

Osara: Then change duh!

Mint: I can't! This is my temporary body!

Alak: Same here, but I'm fine in my robe.

Rue: I'll help you.

Runis: Do I hafta play?

Osara: Nah! You can wait…heyyy! That gives me an idea! I'll hide Runis! If you find him both the hour's up! The game ends automatically!

Runis: YAY! I don't have to play! This rocks!

Osara: Yay! Alright! Ready everyone? I'm going to count to 100 ok?

Mint: Yeah yeah! We got it!

Osara: Alright, now time to hide Runis! (claps hands and a blue light appears) Armor magic! Help me play my game!

The blue light turned into a shield and floated in front of Runis. Runis touched it and he disappeared. Mint sighed.

Mint: That was overly dramatic. Let's get going ok?

Osara: Yep! Ready? (closes eyes) One, Two, Three, Four…

Mint: C'mon Rue! Let's find Runis and end this!

Alak: (whispers) I'll use Copy magic to fool Osara ok? Find Runis.

Mint and Rue ran off while Alak ran in the other direction.

Alak: Forgive me sister…

Meanwhile, back in Sivar.

Maya: My God…

Belle: This place is messed up.

The group had finally reached Sivar. The town was trashed. It wasn't as lucky as Carona either. Most of the people lay dead on the street. The few that survived were finding the bodies of their loved ones. Maya walked forward and saw a familer item.

Maya: My hat! (picks it up and places it on her head) Ahh…much better. My head's been feeling naked!

Rod: I think I'll wait by the boat ok?

Maya: Fine. Belle, Duke and I will investigate.

Belle: So, what are we looking for?

Maya: We're trying to find out why my sister and I were possed and what town is next.

Sick girl: The mean people…said they were returning to East Heaven…

Maya: Huh? They said that?

Girl: Yes they (cough) they said Osara was being foolish and needed to be punished…

Maya: Osara? The Goddess of Pain is in East Heaven still??

Girl: That's what they said…they killed my mommy and daddy…they killed hers too…

Maya: Now you're not making sense!

Girl: The King hurt her…she is the Goddess of Pain…

Maya: The King? My father?

Girl: The king of death…he is the one…even now, he finds her and steals her happiness and gives her pain…

Maya: This doesn't make sense…

Belle: Forget this weirdo Maya! We need real clues!

Young Man: The people really are going to East Heaven. My sister is just in shock. Forgive her Princess Maya.

Maya: It's ok…please, don't blame East Heaven for this. Especially my sister. She didn't know. She tried.

Belle: So, you love your sister after all huh?

Maya: Shut up…

Belle: Anyway, we better go back to Mel and tell her what we found out.

Maya: Right, let's go.

Maya, Belle and Duke ran back to Rod. The Girl and young man sighed.

Girl: You know, you lied!

Man: Yes, I know but we have to hurry and beat them to Carona!

Girl: Right, let's go!

Meanwhile, back in East Heaven…

Osara: 77, 78, 79, (hee hee, this is sooo much fun!! I hope Alak and Mint and Rue and Runis stay with me! It's sooo boring by myself! Ah, my headband is falling off my head…) 97, 98, 99, 100!!! Ready or not, here I come!!

Osara looked around and saw only her angels, wandering aimlessly. She waved her hand and they went back into the large blackhole in the center of town. She smiled.

Osara: Ohh! This is going to be fun! ^_^ Alakkkk!!! Mintttt!! Rueeee!!! Where are youuuu???

Osara skipped away, humming happily as she searched for her new playmates.

In East Heaven Castle…

Mint: RUE?! WHERE THE HELL DID YOU GO??!!

Mint had somehow gotten separated from Rue while they searched the castle. Mint had found many of Osara's "angels" but had avoided fighting all of them. She could only hope that Runis was near by.

Mint: RUNIS!!! ARE YOU IN HERE?! (pushes door open and sees another angel) Uh, you're not Runis! (shuts door) Geez, how many are there?! RUE!!! WHERE ARE YOU?!

Suddenly, Mint felt someone touch her arm. She screamed and slapped her rings behind her, causing whoever it was to fall over in pain.

Rue: MINT!! What was that for?! That really hurt!

Mint: (blushes) AH! Rue! You scared me! The castle is creepy now!

Rue: I was looking for you. It wasn't hard to find you, screaming like that.

Mint: Well, you should have answered back! (helps Rue up) I mean, why didn't you say anything??!!

Rue: Because…I found something very disturbing…

Mint: What?!

Rue: Here, follow me…

Rue led Mint through the castle until they reached Mint's room. Mint blinked.

Mint: My room? There's something weird in my room?

Rue: See for yourself…

Mint pushed the door open. Inside it was like a playpen. Puppets of Klaus, Mel, Mira, Elena and Prima lined the walls. On the floor was the ones of Mint, Rue, Alak and Runis. Voodoo dolls of everyone were across the floor. The one of Runis was glowing light blue. The really disturbing part was the pictures on the wall. Childish, poorly made but showing bloody battles and what looked like Osara killing Alak. Mint took a step back.

Mint: What the hell is all this?!

Rue: I don't know…I guess Osara is using your room…

Mint: This is really messed up!!

Rue: I know…

Mint: Hey, can we use Runis's doll to find him?

Rue: I don't think we should touch anything in here…

Mint: Umm…is that really Klaus and Mel and everyone?

Rue: I think so…

Mint was about to say something when a child's voice stopped her.

Osara: I found you!! Time to freeze!

Author's Note: Well, now what will Mint and Rue do? And why is there a picture of Osara killing Alak?!
