The Keeper of the Light
Chapter Two
By Chang Liko
My Child. Why are you so worried? We have faced foes such as the one before us now, and we have come out of it stronger than ever. I know that you fear for your friends, but they will be alright. They possess the powers of the four worldly elements - Earth, Wind, Fire and Water - elements that were once held by the gods themselves. They have proven themselves again and again. They have never shown any difficulty with the tasks set before them, tasks that challenged them in mental, emotional and physical ways. They are ready to know the truth.
But Master? Are you sure that they will be able to handle it? They have never had a chance to use their powers. They don't even know that they have them. They don't even know that they are immortal since every time they "die", they get completely new memories and lives to keep them from suspecting. The only one who differs from that, is Duo Maxwell, who thinks that he is Shinigami because he always returns to fight another day, even if he's hurt fatally. Do you know how annoying that gets sometimes?
I know how annoying that you think it gets, but you know that you could never find either of your friends annoying. The only person I think who actually finds your friend, Duo, annoying, is Wufei Chang. Little does Wufei know, that him and Duo are actually the best of friends and the greatest of allies. They just tend to compete a lot. But they don't know that, which is why they are so argumentative at times. But when they are alone, they cooperate best, especially on any mission that they have had to complete together.
That is true. I think that Wufei and Duo will get along better when they finally learn the truth of their friendship. But I am worried about Trowa and Quatre. How will they take the true nature of their relationship?
Their relationship is a solid one. They have been friends for some time now. They forgave each other for Shiana's disappearance long ago. They both know that they couldn't have done anything to prevent it, My Child.
But Master. Shiana didn't disappear. She just changed form. That was something that they never knew about her. Shiana can change form at any time. What would they say if they knew that she had been with them all this time, right under their nose?
That, I do not know, My Child. All I do know, is that if Shiana decides to show herself to them again, then Quatre will be very happy to have his sister back and Trowa will be very happy to have her back also, but for different reasons I suspect.
They were very close, weren't they? I hope that she decides to return. We may need her abilities in this next war for peace. Her abilities allow her to perform innumerable feats, not to mention that she is a Magick.
Yes. Shiana would be very helpful to our cause. She is one of the few Magicks left that are strong enough to actually stand a chance against the foe we go against. To have her on our side would be extremely helpful. We will have to do our best to convince her to join us. But for now, we must awaken the Element Warriors. Gather your friends tonight when you get home, but tell them nothing. I will awaken them.
As you wish, Master.
