Chapter 7 A Diary and a Plush Bunny?
-The Dream-
A young woman between the ages of 17-19 was putting her long midnight blue hair into a ponytail. She was wearing an old fashioned simple blue dress and she was smiling happily. She was going to have a meeting with the love of her life tonight. She gracefully went down the large stairs and kissed her father on the cheek as she entered the dining room where she was supposed to have dinner. She was humming on the song of the winds, the song that all understood, the song that no one sung with words. Her father, Lord Kinomiya's face was stone cold at the moment and his grey eyes turned to his daughter.
"Tayca…" Tayca looked at her father slightly surprised. "I do not want you meeting the son of Lord Hiwatari anymore.' In that moment, as those words was uttered, Tayca dropped the fork she was holding in her hand.
"What?" She asked, hoping that she had misheard her father's words.
"You are no longer allowed to meet, see, talk to or even exchange letter with Karachi Hiwatari." Lord Kinomiya stated coldly. Tayca's eyes filled with tears.
"I hate you! Why can't I see Karachi! I love him! He's my soul mate and you know it!" The tears were overflowing Tayca's eyes as she screamed at her father who looked calmly at her. Tayca's mother, lady Kinomiya looked distraught.
"My lord," she began, "don't you think it's a bit unfair to..." she was then interrupted by Lord Kinomiya who said with an ice cold voice:
"Tayca! You must immediately install yourself in your room; can't you see what this boy is doing to you? He's making you scream and shout like a commoner." Tayca fled from the table in tears. She ran all the way up the stairs before bumping into someone who she knocked over. As she sat there on the floor she noticed who it was.
"Lord Kon..." The young raven haired man was Tayca's age. He smiled sadly at her, stood up, brushed his clothes of and helped Tayca too her feet.
"Please Tayca, call me Reran. What have happened my dear friend?" Tayca threw her arms around her friend's neck and cried into his shoulder. Reran stroke her back and then he said:
"Maybe we should find some privacy, I need to discuss something with you, and I can see that you need to talk to someone. And since I'll be travelling home tomorrow, it seems it is urgent." Tayca nodded and the two friends installed themselves in her chamber. Once they were there Reran and Tayca sat down on her bed and Reran put a comforting hand on his childhood's friend's shoulder.
"It's so horrible Reran!" Tayca cried out. "Father won't let me see Karachi anymore! I don't know what to do!" Reran pulled Tayca into an embrace and rocked her gently as she sobbed.
"It's going to be alright Tayca, you and Karachi are soul mates. And I know for a fact that he won't give up so easily." Tayca smiled and then she said:
"Reran… what did you want to talk to me about?" Reran sighed and his golden eyes narrowed.
"I'm afraid that I might not be good enough for Maxine… I love her to death but… I do not know if she wants to marry me… I haven't dared to ask her yet." Tayca sighed and wrapped her arms around her friend.
"Oh Reran, you underestimate yourself. Maxine loves you just as much as you love her… ask her, I know she will say yes. And it will bring her more happiness than anything else." Reran smiled and nodded. He rose, kissed his friend on her forehead, and as he was supposed to leave, Lord Kinomiya showed up.
"Lord Kinomiya," Reran said and bowed.
"Young master Kon," Tayca's father answered and nodded. Reran left the room and went towards his chamber for the time being. Lord Kinomiya turned to his daughter who was sitting on the bed refusing to look at him.
"Tayca," he started. "I do not wish for you to be mad with me, I only do this for your eon good. Why can't you find someone like Reran? He's much better for you." Anger flashed in Tayca's eyes and she rose quickly before she started to scream with tears falling from her eyes.
"How dare you! Reran already has his soul mate and you know it, why can't you just accept that I've found mine!" Then, just like that, Tayca knew exactly why her father did not want her to see speak or even write to the love of her life. Her eyes widened in shock.
"Father, you disgust me! You don't want me to see Karachi because you're afraid that we'll get married, and you know that if we do, then we will be the one's to take the throne! You just want your power, and you can't stand giving over to me. You don't even care about your people, or even your own daughter, all you care about is yourself!" Tayca's eyes burned with anger, and in one movement with her arm, her father flew out from her room by the help of the winds that Tayca controlled. The door slammed shut and she locked it quickly. Then she threw herself on the bed and cried into her pillow, hugging it like a teddy bear.
In the Hiwatari castle on the other hand, there was another display of emotions. At dinner, Karachi's father, Lord Hiwatari had read to his son the letter that had arrived from the Kinomiya castle.
"And therefore, I forbid young master Karachi Hiwatari from seeing my daughter, young lady Tayca Kinomiya." That was the ending of the letter. Karachi was sitting completely still; his body had frozen in shock. He stared blankly at his father who said:
"I'm so sorry Karachi… I know how much you love her. I swear that I will try to convince Lord Kinomiya otherwise." Karachi only nodded and rose to his feet before walking of out into the evening. Lord Hiwatari watched his son walk of and sighed, he knew where Karachi was going, and he didn't have the power to stop him.
Karachi had asked the lady Dranzer to help him, and the great fire phoenix had carried him to the Kinomiya castle. The wall however, he had to climb that himself. Karachi used a lot of strength, but he managed to get over the wall and into the garden. 'Lady Dranzer?' He asked. 'Yes, master Karachi?' The fire phoenix answered. 'Can you point out where Tayca's bedroom balcony is?' The phoenix answered that by lighting a blue flame on a balcony. 'Thank you Lady.' Karachi hurried towards the balcony. The glass doors were shut so Karachi took some small pebbles and threw them at it.
Tayca was woken up by the master dragon. 'Lady, Tayca… someone is here to see you.' Tayca looked confused. 'Who is it master Dragoon?' But the ancient spirit didn't answer. Then Tayca heard the pebbles hitting her glass doors. She stood up, still dressed in her simple blue dress and opened the doors and walked out on the balcony. There on the ground, stood Karachi with a huge grin on his face.
"Karachi!" Tayca nearly screamed his name as she took a close look at his face. Then she climbed over the stone rail of her balcony. Karachi stretched out his arms to show her that he was going to catch her. Tayca who trusted her love completely gently leaped of the balcony and landed in her love's arms.
Karachi put Tayca down on the ground gently and Tayca kissed him. Karachi responded tenderly and they shard a kiss of the most utterly love. The stars were sparkling above them and Tayca sighed in bliss.
"Karachi… you came." Karachi answered her by gently kissing her lips.
"Of course I did my love; nothing could ever keep me away from you." Tayca giggled.
(!) The lady with the long midnight blue hair was pulling the arm of the taller man. His hair had two different shades of blue. It was a star filled night. Tayca smiled and laughed slightly before she whispered to her love:
"Dance with me Karachi." Karachi sighed, and looked into her love filled eyes.
"Tayca…" he started but was interrupted by the woman who gently placed a finger on his lips.
"You don't have to say anything Karachi… just dance with me." Karachi didn't seem like he wanted to dance, but his eyes were filled with love as he watched the somewhat younger woman dance in front of him. A small wind passed them making a soughing sound. The leaves on the trees nearby started to rustle as well as the leaves on the bushes.
"Can't you hear it?" she whispered. The man looked at her as if he didn't know what she meant. "Can't you hear the wind that's playing music just for us?" Karachi smiled and offered his hand to Tayca who gladly took it. They moved slowly in an age old dance, Tayca moving her body slightly against Karachi's. They were looking each other deeply in the eyes and then Karachi leaned forward and whispered in Tayca's ear:
"I love the way your body flows… and the rhythm it holds..." He kissed her neck and then he whispered: "And I adore the music that plays in your eyes." Tayca looked lovingly at Karachi, and then they shared a loving and passionate kiss. And the winds that passed the two young loves sang a song older than time it self, in a language all understands. (!)
-…-
Tyson woke up with the sun in his face. He felt lousy and it was obvious that Miranda had let him sleep over. Tyson glanced at the clock, 11.00am. Miranda must have called him in sick he thought as he sat up in his bed. What had happened to Tayca and Karachi the next? Tyson knew that this must have been his past life and he got a little shocked. Hadn't Tayca talked with the master dragon Dragoon? This could mean that he was Takao, but he didn't have any proof and… an enormous pain shot through Tyson's head and he fell back on his bed and whimpered in pain. It was so immense that Tyson's vision got blurry, seconds later, Tyson lost consciousness.
In school, Kai had noticed that Tyson's name was on the list of students that had been called in sick. Kai sighed; he had wanted to see Tyson again. The school day continued as they had done before Tyson came, all students took a long way around Kai and his "Death glare 3000" and made sure not to annoy him in any way. Kai had noted that when Tyson was with him, people around them had seemed more relaxed, almost as if they weren't as scared of him when Tyson was there.
When Tyson regained his conscious, the headache was almost numb. Drowsy he walked downstairs and found a note on the kitchen table from Miranda.
Tyson, I called you in sick today. If you wonder why, then I can tell you that it was because I came up to check on you last night and you were sweating fiercely, and you were burning up. After I'd put a wet cloth on your forehead, it calmed down and you slept more peacefully, but I decided it would be better to call you in sick. There is some stuff for you to make pancakes of (if you're up to it) otherwise there's cereal and milk. –Miranda.
Tyson stared at the note. Was Miranda acting… motherly? It was so odd. But right now, Tyson didn't really care. He made his breakfast and ate it. He felt so hot and uncomfortable, even if he was only wearing a think cotton pyjamas. He came out in the hall and then he collapsed on the floor panting heavily.
Then he noticed, that under the large cupboard, there laid two things. He managed to get the out and brushed of all of the dust that covered them. One of them was a white/grey (now discoloured from dust) plush bunny, it looked cheerful and somehow… comforting. The other object was a black book which said on the outside with golden letter: Diary. Tyson opened the book, and on the inside it said: This Diary belongs to Miranda Northbecker. Tyson stared at the handwriting. And slowly, Tyson understood what it was he was holding in his hand. It was Miranda's old diary. The diary she had had before she married James and became Miranda Granger.
