A/N- Hey Everyone! Ok new chapter Read and Review!
At midday they reached the soaring castle of the sorceress. The drawbridge was down, giving Rin the feeling that they knew they were coming.
After reaching the main gate, a hefty guard greeted them at the entrance. "Hello I am Rin of Edo. We have come to seek guidance from the Sorceress of these lands." The guard nodded and led them into the castle.
Inside was dark, the only light were a few torches that were on the walls. Cob webs covered every corner of the room. The hallway was musky and no doubt mildew was growing on the brick walls. At the end of the hall they confronted the large oak door heading to the Sorceress study. The guard nodded at them to enter.
"Rin of Edo. How are you?" A deep, cracking voice came from the the curtains that separated the room. "Hello Sorceress, we have come to seek guidance from you."
"Oh, I see... The pure ones." The sorceress came out from the curtains to reveal a small woman whose skin sank down to her toes. "You knew we were coming."
"I felt their presence awaken. I knew you would come."
"Why did you think I would come?" Rin asked. The sorceress smiled causing her droopy skin to fold at her cheeks. "Rin how much do you know of these pure ones?" she asked.
"Nothing except they hold the future of good and evil in the world."
"Aye." The sorceress walked over to a large book that was resting on a table. "She is alone. To hold such a task is to be alone..." she intoned.
"What does this have to do with anything?" Rin cut Kaname off with a movement of her hand. "Sorceress?"
"She is the only one that can control the power of the pure ones."
"Do you know who this girl is?" Rin inquired. The sorceress kept her smile. She reached into her torn pocket and pulled out a flat jem the size of her thumb.It was shaped as a tear drop. "How do I find her?" Rin asked. The sorceress walked up to Rin. She placed the jewel on Rin's forehead. Pain began to pulse through her body. Tears poured down her cheeks. Her knees became too weak to hold her up. She fell to her knees. Veins pulsed at her temples. Rin gasped for air one last time before she collapsed on the floor. Kaname ran to her. "What did you do to her!" Kaname shouted, wiping the sweat from Rins face. She jumped off quickly after seeing the jewel enter Rin's body.
"What on earth."
The Sorceress gasped in joy at what just happened. "She is her..." The sorceress whispered to herself. " I have found her... Oh, what to do... What to do..."
"Who have you found?" Sousuke barked at her. "ANSWER ME!" Rins moaned, her eyes open. She looked at Kaname for a brief second trying to figure out who she was. The second realization hit her, she jumped to her feet. A small gasp of pain coming from her lips as she stared at the Sorceress. "What have you done?" She asked.The sorceress smiled. "I answered your question," she replied. Rin continued to glare at her. 'Is this woman MAD!' She asked herself.
"What do you mean? What question? I have asked you many that you failed to answer." She said aloud. The Sorceress walked over to Rin and placed a small stack containing jewels in her sweaty palm.
"Huh? What is this?"
"Rin, you have been awaken." The Sorceress answered. Rin stared at the old lady blankly. "You are the one who will unlock the pures by using the contents of the small sack." A small giggle hit Rin's lips. "I am the "unlocker". Impossible!"
"Rin! Use some common sense!" the old woman demanded, "The jewel entered your body! It excepted your destiny! Now you must hurry on your way, you are not the only one who longs to find the pure ones."
"How do I find them?" Rin asked in a small voice.
"I am not sure... I guess you will have to trust your senses... Now go before..." Rin cut her off. "What about the unknown?"
"He will cause delays in your journey... you must not let him find you for he will use... Rin please, the sooner you wait, the closer they come to finding you." Rin nodded and quickly went out the oak door.
