Chapter 9 - Xiang

I traveled by wind with the box holding my jade pin. I jumped from cloud to cloud trying to clear my head. I looked around quietly when I reached a big forest area I dropped down. Under an illusion of a big forest resides a castle. I never liked going here since he was here. Regardless I walked in and looked around. "Nature king?" I replied with a cold tone and another cold voice responded. "So you're back Xiang." I looked over and nod. "Yes… Father." The man looked at me coldly and noticed my appearance. "What did you do to yourself?" I looked away and sighed. "I wanted to forget my past." He sighed and looked at me. "What a disgrace… who did this to my own child." I looked away and sighed. "Father I would rather not talk about it. Anyways I need your help." My father looked at me with his dark golden eyes. "What is it boyo." I pulled out the box and I opened it. "You reckless child this jade hairpin is apart of you. If it breaks it can threaten your life. I'm surprised how you are still standing." I nodded and looked away. "I'm pushing the limits right now. When can we fix it?" He looked at me and sighed. "Then what are you willing to give up for it my son?" I looked away and then back. "Both my voice and sight." My father the Nature king sighed, "Very well then my son. You will temporarily lose both your sight and voice." I nodded and my father took my jade pin and a light shines from it.

The light had a greenish glow and I closed my eyes. I felt a sharp pain in my eyes and my throat. Once the pain was gone I knew it was all over. I slightly stumbled and I felt my father's arms keep me stable and he sighed. My father touched my hair and it felt longer in an instant. "You look better with longer hair." He messed with my hair a bit and pulled some of it up. Then I felt the sliding of the jade hairpin go into my hair an I sighed. My father helped me up and sighed. "Do you want to go back?" I nodded regretfully and my father took me back.

I felt a rush of wind fly around me and I felt a familiar aura of the place around me. I sighed and looked around aimlessly. I could see what was going on or what happened. I heard a high pitched voice ring out. "Xiang? You're back?" I felt my father's hand rest on my shoulder and he summons a beast. "Fang you'll be Xiang's eyes and words during this period." I felt a small howl and I looked confused. A Dog? Then I quickly heard a snarl and I heard these few words. I ain't a dog I am a wolf! I looked away and sighed. My father sighed and started talking. "Fang turn into your human form. You will still have the connection with Xiang to be able to communicate telepathically" I couldn't tell what was going on around me but I sighed. "Who are you and what have you done to Xiang?" My father's voice crackled slightly as he started to talk. "Xiang is my son and he made a choice to fix his jade hairpin." I felt another hand rest on my other shoulder and I was slightly confused. Fang is that you? I didn't know what else to ask except for that. Yes it's me. I'm in my human form right now to help guide you better. I nod silently and I heard slight panic in the high pitched voice. "Xiang what mess have you gotten yourself into." I wished I could talk but that wasn't an option. Fan tell them that I made this choice myself. Fang yawned and replied. Very well master. He slightly coughed and replied. "Master Xiang said he made this decision himself and he hopes that you'll respect his decisions." My father's voice resounded softly. "I'll take my leave now. Fang take care of Xiang for me." I heard a tap of a foot and then a voice, "Mr. Xiang… You should of taken Damion when you had the chance. I am though, glad you came back unlike Damion." I turned my face away and sighed. Master do you know him? Fang asked curiously. It's nothing important anymore… Anyways tell her that I will take back my duty of dorm staff leader. Fang tapped my shoulder with one tap which probably indicated a yes. Then I heard Fang's voice resound. "Very well… Master Xiang said he will take back his duty of dorm staff leader." Lightwood sighed, "I can't have a blind staff dorm president. You will stay in your room until your eyesight is fixed." She turns on her heels and I heard a whoosh and then she was gone. "Disrespectful little human…" He growled and I rest my hand on fang's shoulder. It's fine, don't worry about it. Help me back to my room. Fang scoffed and I felt him shift slightly. He then carefully guided me back to my room.

After an entire year I heard a slight knock on my door and I hear a familiar voice. "Master Do you need my to do anything?" I practice some calligraphy during my time alone."Xiang... get out of your room." Lightwood's voice called outside my door. I glanced around quietly but still not able to see. "Lightwood you told my to stay here. Since I can't apparently do my job if I'm blind." Lightwood hisses, "Do you care even the slightest bit about Jared?" I stopped what I was doing for a minute before continuing. "He never cared about me so I see no reason for me to care about him." I was grateful that in the year of my being in my room that I recovered my voice already. Sadly whether my sight would return was still up for debate. "Jared did care about you Xiang... stop being a sulker and an hard head and get out of your room this instant!" I sighed quietly and looked away. "And what am I gonna see? Trees, birds, the school, or Damion? Or whatever you call him now? No I'm not gonna see anytime soon. I don't even know if I'll ever regain my sight at this point but only time can tell." Lightwood's aura picked up and I sighed. " you continue Fine I'll come out. It's a waste of time though. Fang help me up." I felt heard Fang walking over to me and he helped me up. He walked me over to the door and we walked out. "Happy now?" Lightwood gave a growl and slapped me in the face, "Get over yourself Xiang." Fang grabbed Lightwood's hand and snarled. "Don't touch him." I sighed and coughed. "Fang stop annoying people and just follow me." Fang growled and let go then followed me as I walked aimlessly. I walked as far away as I could and sighed.
I find the smell of roses and other flowers too. "Fang guide me over to the mini gazebo area I want to sit down." I felt a pair of eyes watching me and I sighed. "Fang do it now." The look stopped and Fang guided me over to sit down. I felt the wind rushes against my face and sighed. "Master why are we here?" I softly sighed and tried to find where Fang's voice came from. "Because this area always made me calm. It would never curse me for my mistakes nor would it ever hate or despise me." A few little creatures come up to me. I could tell it was creatures because I felt their aura. They played with my clothing, some nuzzled on my lap, and then some slept.

I heard a rustle and I opened my eyes, of course I couldn't see anything but I didn't move. "Fang was that you?" I heard a slight cough and a purr and I figured Fang turned back into his wolf form. "I guess that answers it then." I heard some movement and I asked quietly. "Who's there?" There was a long silence and no reply. I sighed and pet the creature on my lap. "Are you that scared?" A flower landed on me and I felt confused. "Who's there?" There was another long pause and I kicked Fang awake. "Fang who's here?" Fang sighed and I assumed he change back to his human form. "Xiang you are so ruthless sometimes." I sighed and replied. "I'm not if you started doing your job better." Fang cough quickly, "Who are you?" I heard a soft patter of footsteps and someone raised my chin and they stuck a flower stem between my teeth, "Hello lovely." I coughed the stem out and Fang growled. "Leave him alone!" The hand dropped from my chin but another hand brushed my cheek gently, "Fang isn't it? You shouldn't address your master's lover that way." I brushed the hand away from me and sighed. "When did that ever happen Verreaux?" Fang growled and replied. "I only listen to my master and his father then no one else."

Damion replied a soft chuckle, "I was only joking Mr. Xiang, however, your dog needs a good discipline… I don't allow animals inside this garden." I sighed and looked away. "I don't need you to teach me. Fang help me up… we are leaving." Fang grabbed my arm and helped me up. "Fang let me go...I will try to get back on my own." Fang stopped and asked. "But you can't…." I sighed and opened my eyes slightly. "Fang I can find my way home. The wind can guide me." Fang stops retorting and leaves. I sighed and Damion snarls, "Like I have said before, you are disgraceful." There was a loud bang and he was gone. I sighed and tilted my head down. "You continue saying this but I've already gone numb to your words. You still wish to hurt me even though I can't see. Nor have you cared when I couldn't speak before. Loneliness just comforts me like it always has done. Maybe I should've just not fixed my hair pin and let my life wither away, maybe that could've saved me from suffering." I slowly start to walk somewhere with the wind guiding me.

I continued walking and sighed. I heard someone call my name softly. "Dorm Staff Xiang?" I sighed and nodded. "I assume it's you Samael?" I felt two other presences and asked. "I assume Jameson and Maxwell are with you?" Samael gasped softly and asked. "How did you know?" I sighed and tried to look around. "I just feel their presences by you." Jameson huffed, "I know you are our Staff Dorm Leader but what did you do to make Damion leave? My friends in the other dorm is devastated, Nova can't even lead a dorm properly." I heard a scuffle and Maxwell's voice cuts in, "This may not be your fault but whatever is going on between you and Damion, fix it. Now I shall take my leave, shall we Samael?" Jameson snarls and I sighed. "If I knew what was going on in his mind do you think I would still be here Maxwell? He never lets anyone close to him to share secrets." The Headmaster's son said coldly, "You want to know why he is so cold to you? Wait no, never mind that he can tell you, it's not my place to distribute this information." He moves closer to me and said, "Fix this." He backs away and I heard footsteps draw away. " Even I don't know how to fix this…. Nor would he ever let me try. Maxwell come back here I have a job for you." Maxwell's group stops and I felt a glare on me, "What is it Dorm Staff Leader, Xiang? I have a class to go to and I want to maintain my grades." I sighed and replied. "You want to fix this problem between Verreaux and I then fine but we play to my rules. Come over here and I'll tell you the plan." Maxwell walks over and then places a hand on my shoulder so I knew he was near, "You better have a good plan or I am going to tell my father what you have done… don't make me ruin my perfect attendance for nothing." I softly chuckled. "I'll give your teacher a reason why I needed you." I replied softly and I spoke. "So this is how we are gonna do it…"
