At night, in the Fryar Mansion:
"Daddy, I want to go to the Scarlet Dawn Academy tomorrow."
Guinevere was talking to a blonde middle aged man wearing an indigo cloak with a light purple lotus at the back. He was Mr. George Fryar, the school head of Mauve Lotus Academy and Guinevere's father.
"Of course I will let you. I will assign two hundred soldiers to protect you from harm."
"But daddy, I can do this on my own! My performance at school outshines others and I also praised by the teachers on how good I am. They think that they don't need to teach me anymore." Guin puffed her cheeks while her dad sighed helplessly.
"My darling, I won't let you go on your own. There are evil people lurking around, maybe they will get you, I wouldn't want that to happen!"
"Dad, it's not that far, it's just a town away from here so I'll be fine. Just give me a carriage." Guinevere insisted.
Her dad hesitated for a brief moment before he nodded. "I'll let you go on your own, but be sure to avoid danger at all cost. Please rest so tomorrow you have enough energy for your trip."
"Thanks dad!" Guin kisses his dad on the cheek and goes to her room. She was requested by her dad to see how Harley is doing so she peek inside of his room just to see him sleeping soundly before she went inside her room.
"Since it is still summer vacation, I have to see how she improved these past few weeks. I will not lose to that umbrella maiden ever! I heard that someone from the same academy as my rival wants to challenge her so it is my chance to see her improvement... I heard rumors about Gusion waiting for Kagura every afternoon."
"It makes me want to go deeper into that issue. All I do is to find the truth there. I bet she had feelings also for Gusion... now I'm mad!" Guin was talking to herself with mixed expression. She was punching her pillows intensely.
She was right. To make sure it was true she has to look for the truth. She rested her head on the pillow and closes her eyes. "Tomorrow is another day. Another day is another mission to accomplish." She then goes into the dreamland.
At the dark vast room, Guin was standing without any idea where she is. "What is this? I can't see anything!" She shouted.
But no one answered. She was confused, she tried to run but it looks like it'll last forever. She didn't see the exit or a light just to see where she is.
"Is anyone here? What is this place?!" She shouted. Her hands and knees are trembling when the temperature drops suddenly. "I-I don't want to stay here! Let me out!"
Over and over she screams until a golden light flickers not far from her. The light illuminates around a certain shoulder length black and white haired lady standing with eyes closed. Her delicate frame moves smoothly as she goes near at Guin. Guinevere looks closely at the illuminated lady and stares at her absentmindedly. She hasn't seen such a face like that in the Western land, the lady was more of a beauty from another realm. She can't stop gazing at her.
'Who is she?'
The mouth of the lady moves which makes Guin jolt. "Your dream... tells more about your situation and fate." A gentle voice came from the lady.
"My fate and— Wait! It doesn't look like it. I don't have any problems with my family and even to myself! I have lot of achievements and people praise me for being smart and beautiful lady in my generation and obviously have a bright future waiting for me." Guinevere explained.
"I don't want to offend you miss. I just wanted to meet you." The lady said.
"Uhuh? So you're here because?" Guin's eyebrow rose up.
The lady answered. "I want to meet you. Now that I met you, let's meet again next time."
"What?! What am I, your playmate?!" Guin raised questions.
"Please, let us meet... in reality."
The light goes dimmer until the lady disappears. When she saw another place, she realized that she was in her bedroom.
"Was that a dream? Who is she? Why does she want to meet me of all people? Oh well, dreams aren't true, that lady just disturbed my sleep." She left a big yawn before going back to sleep.
Early morning, a glamorous carriage has arrived. Guinevere saw this and frowns. "Why does dad chose a flashy carriage? I just want a normal carriage!"
"Don't ever think it was yours, I'm the one who will ride that carriage and yours was there behind, feeler!" Harley sticks his tongue at her. This only makes her infuriated.
"Well that's GREAT then! I don't need that anyway." Guin harrumphs, arms folded while looking at the laughing Harley.
Harley's carriage went a bit far as it goes away from the mansion. She also goes inside the carriage which was not that glamorous. Guinevere looks agitated even if she is still in the carriage. To calm herself up, she looks at the tall trees outside the window. She has a lot to think now.
"That dream is still clear in my mind, I don't know why..." She wonders.
