Chapter 9: Solomon's Wisdom and Helios' Flame
Last time…..
Robin's POV
I sighed and walked out of the room Leo had put me into while my blood lust had raged out of control. Leo had told me Aladdin had fallen ill but… I opened the door to the door he was supposed to be in.
"Sorry for the intrusion…" I said, entering the room. I walked in silently and found Aladdin sleeping on a bed. Just like I was a couple of days ago… I sat by Aladdin's side and smiled.
"Sorry….Sorry for losing myself… Sorry for not being able to stop Judal before Ugo….." I whispered. I rested my head on the bed next to Aladdin.
Sorry Aladdin….
I felt Aladdin stir and wake up.
"Aladdin!?"I said in shock looking at him.
"Robin! Come on we have to go!" Aladdin grabbed my hand.
"To destroy the darkness!"
Guardian…
I looked around in shock hearing the familiar voice that brought me to this world.
Go with your Magi… To protect the light… your king… The Magi to guide the world…
I looked at Aladdin and nodded. I stood and placed my hand over my heart.
"Yes. Let's go Aladdin… My magi!"
Current Events (this is where Aladdin and Robin appear when Alibaba is fighting the Black Djinn)
Alibaba's POV
I covered my eyes to shield them from the bright white light. I could hear two very familiar voices.
"Really. You're such a strange person…"
"I wouldn't say strange, more like unique…"
"True… Because that's who you are…"
"And that's why we want to help you!"
"And I'll stretch out my hand to you no matter how many times…"
"And I'll be there to help you up when you fall…" My eyes widen at the two who stood in front of me.
"Hey, Alibaba!" The two said in sync. Robin! Aladdin! The white birds flowed around the two and I saw Judal smile.
"Ha! You've finally come. I've been waiting for you." Judal yelled with a sadistic smile on his face.
"I WON'T LOSE THIS TIME! BECAUSE I'VE OBTAINED A DJINN TOO! OK CALL OUT YOU DJINN NOW! CALL IT OUT NOW!" Judal cackled. Robin placed her hand on my shoulder and looked at Judal. I watched as Robin let the icicle Judal shot, fly straight towards Aladdin but a barrier stopped it.
"ALADDIN! THE ONLY PERSON LEFT WHO CAN MATCH UP TO HIMIS YOUR DJINN!" Sinbad and Leo yelled from the palace wall, both stuck there by the ice impaling them. Robin smiled and walked over to Aladdin's side.
"Are you talking about Ugo? If you're talking about him… He's not here anymore…" I looked at Aladdin in shock. Morgiana ran to my side and helped me up and then I realised my severe wounds had just healed. Wait!? When did they?
"Stupid Alibaba that was me! It's true though….. Ugo's gone…"
"What do you mean!?" Judal demanded. Robin walked away from Aladdin who then surrounded himself in white light.
"WHAT!? Ruhk's divine protection!? No that's wrong!" Judal screamed. I then saw Robin drag something across her hand and flames surrounded her. All of a sudden Aladdin conjured a white Djinn which looked like Ugo while Robin created what looked like some kind of dragon out of fire. The two launched attacks.
"HALHARL INFIGAR!"
"PHEONIX BURST!"
The attacks scorched Judal, his Djinn and melted all the ice in the area. The ice around Leo and Sindbad melted.
"Mister, Leo, are you both alright?" Aladdin asked while Robin looked on guard.
"Yeah!"
"THANK YOU, I'M FREE!" Robin sighed at her brother and Aladdin asked Morgiana to take Sindbad and Leo into town and she complied.
"CHIBI! You and that girl disappoint me!" Judal screamed rising in the air. Aladdin looked up at Judal and said something that shocked me to the core.
"Looks like I can't win. Robin! Alibaba! I need your Strength! Together we can win!"
"I wish I could but… I've lost my sword and I have no magoi left… I can no longer fight." Robin smiled and helped me up.
"Stop being silly Alibaba!"
"That's not true Alibaba Look!" Aladdin said and I saw everyone.
"Everyone's hopes within their hearts. They'll never give up."
"And neither should we!" Robin said smiling with a determined look in her eyes. She nodded to Aladdin who smiled back and nodded. Light gathered around Aladdin and the symbol from the dungeon appeared on his forehead.
*mini time skip*
Robin's POV
I watched as Alibaba was absorbed into the Djinn. He's going to be fine, I'm sure. I watched as Judal fell to the floor screaming. I walked to Aladdin's side.
"I guess you used it on him." Aladdin nodded in response. I looked at Judal who began to rise.
"Aladdin… I'll take Judal on but some support would be nice." I said.
"Sure!" I closed my eyes and grabbed the small knife I had used earlier and remembered the one story my older sister told me while she was still alive.
When in trouble and our blood runs free we can summon our family spirit to our realm. Helios, the dragon of the Sun, power, protection and courage. Remember that our ancestors have called him countless times and look where we are now Robin! Remember this when in trouble…
"Family spirit of power. I call you through the blood that links us. Dwell within my blade, become my fire, my power, my protection. HELIOS!" I felt flames surround my hands and the small knife I held in them. I watched as the blade grew in size and lengthened into a katana which had a draconic design. Flames like tattoos adorned my hands and I looked at Judal and smiled.
"JUDAL! YOU WILL CONTINUE THHIS WITH ME! ALADDIN!" I surged towards Judal. Aladdin shot heat magic at Judal's icicles and I then met his Borg. Judal Laughed.
"HAHA Like you can break it!" I smiled.
"Just watch me!" I held the katana with one hand and pressed the other onto the borg. I pushed with all my might. I could feel my fingers slip through it. Judal looked at me in horror. I grabbed the Borg and grinned.
"Think this as a guardian only technique, now where was I?" I pulled and the Borg shattered. I them slammed the sword onto his wand and pushed him back several meters. I quickly darted out the way and Aladdin sent heat magic at him, landing straight into his stomach. Judal got up and began throwing more attacks at Aladdin. I cut them apart with my sword. A cracking noise then got our attentions. I looked at the Djinn to see that it was crumbling. I smiled. Alibaba!
Instantly the thing exploded into white ruhk. Judal collapsed and both I and Aladdin watched as he was taken away. I turned to Aladdin and hugged him.
"WE DID IT!" I said in a cheery voice. I then let go and turned towards where the Djinn had been to see Alibaba and the black corpse of Kassim. Tears streamed from his eyes and I smiled with Aladdin.
"Welcome back Alibaba." Aladdin said with tears in his eyes.
") couldn't protect anything….." Alibaba cried. I released the spirit, placed the knife in its sheath and walked to Alibaba. I hugged him.
"Robin? Everyone died….I couldn't stop it…. I couldn't save Kassim…" I felt tears sting my eyes and roll down my face.
"Alibaba… You're wrong… You were great! I'm sure you saved him!" I said through tears. Man they were infectious.
"Maybe we should ask him… Just because people die it doesn't mean they disappear completely." I watched along with Alibaba in shock as the ruhk surrounded everyone and began to take shape. I saw two figures form in front of Alibaba and Aladdin explained about the flow. Once Aladdin order the ruhk to go back to those they cherished I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned and I looked in shock. Tears cascaded down my face. A hand wiped them away. I looked to see two people. One was a woman in her thirties with long black hair and the same colour eyes as myself and the other was a girl Alibaba's age with long blonde hair and grey eyes. Both wore similar clothing and they smiled at me. I cried and tried to smile. Alibaba and Aladdin turned and looked in shock at the appearance of the two.
"MUM! WILLOW-NEE!" I felt Aladdin grab my shoulder and I leaned into him.
Soon enough the ruhk of everyone went back to the flow. I wiped my tears away and Aladdin helped me up from the floor.
"ALADDIN! ALIBABA! ROBIN!" We all turned to see a worried Morgiana running towards us. I smiled and Aladdin cried out Morgiana's name. With tears in her eyes she hugged us all and I smiled then eventually laughed. I looked at the now blue sky. Mum, Willow-nee I have friends now… and I'll never let them go!
Half a year after the events of Balbaad
Robin's POV
Ja'far and I ran at each other. The two of us tried to attack the other but we both smoothly dodged each other. I then Jumped into the air and tried to land a kick but was caught.
"Robin that's too predictable…" I sighed and crossed my arms while being hung upside down. Thank the ruhk I wasn't wearing a dress or skirt. I heard a noise and grinned.
"Ja'far they're back!" I said, trying to slap his hand in order to get free. He sighed and placed me onto the ground.
"It seems they are… Shall we meet them?" I nodded.
The island country of the southern seas, Sindria Kingdom, home to king Sindbad. This was the place we all came to after Balbaad. I was offered to go with my brother but I refused. I didn't want to leave Aladdin and the others. I smiled and waved at the familiar brotherly figure who walked towards us.
"Welcome back, King Sindbad." Ja'far and the rest of Sindbad's general said. I smiled looked at Morgiana who had met up with me and Ja'far. After talking to Ja'far Sindbad smiled at Mor and I. I smiled.
"Welcome back King Sindbad!" I said in a cheery voice and bowed. He grinned.
"Robin, you are royalty as well in some aspect. You don't need to bow. And thank you, it's good to be back." I smiled along with Mor. I sighed as Sindbad was told about Aladdin and Alibaba. I puffed out my cheeks.
"He won't know what hit him." I whispered to Mor who smiled.
"It may be a shock…" I smiled and Mor.
"Mor, don't you think 'shock' would be an understatement?" I giggled. All of a sudden a very fat Alibaba appeared. I bit my tongue to stop myself from laughing at Sindbad's expression.
I watched as he looked between Mor, Alibaba and myself and continued walking.
I coughed and took in a deep breath. Mor patted my back.
"You sure you are going to be able to stop yourself when…" I almost doubled over on the spot it Mor hadn't been holding me. Then Sindbad saw Aladdin and I couldn't help it once I saw his face.
I doubled over and began laughing. Aladdin and Alibaba looked confused at me. I eventually stopped and wiped the tears from my face.
Sindbad sat down on a chair and looked between the girls, Mor and Myself, and the boys.
"What've you two been doing?" Sindbad asked in an emotionless voice.
"Training" Mor said in an equally emotionless voice.
"I've been training with Ja'far when he's not been busy and I've been training with some of the soldiers here!" I said in a cheery voice. Sindbad nodded and looked at Alibaba and Aladdin.
"Run." I smiled at the single word that slipped from Sindbad's mouth.
*time skip*
I smiled as I helped Ja'far with his jobs.
"Are you sure you want to help me? It's rather boring for someone your age." I smiled at Ja'far.
"I'm fine! I'm sure I'll go back to Neathia at some point so it's better for me to split my time between training how to fight and learning how to run a country." I said. The two of us walked past Alibaba, Mor and Sin. I smiled and looked at Ja'far.
"Once we finish up this lot you should be free, right?" Ja'far sighed.
"I hope so…" All of a sudden a few messengers came to us.
"Ja'far a creature has appeared in the orchard of the eastern zones!" Ja'far nodded.
"Go tell our King."
"Yes sir!" I sighed.
"Give me the rest of the paperwork and I'll take it to your office. I'll be there as soon as possible." I said with a smile. Ja'far smiled back.
"Thank you Robin!" and with that Ja'far ran off. I quickly left all of laters work and ran to the balcony.
"Helios! Wings of flames!" The anklets which my brother had given me before we had left for Sindria glowed and small dragon wings formed. I grinned and took off towards the eastern orchard.
Eventually I got there and saw Aladdin, Alibaba and Morgiana. I sighed at the panic on the three of their faces. I landed next to them.
"Hi! Calm down, nothing bad will happen!" I said, clapping Alibaba and Aladdin on their shoulders.
"ROBIN?!" I grinned and pointed to the banners in the distance. Gongs were rung as Sindbad and the generals approached. Sindbad yelled above the crowd.
"DECIDE TODAY'S HUNT WITH YOUR SWORD, SHARRKAN!" I smiled as the white haired, golden armoured heliohept launched himself towards the beast.
"Leave it to me, your majesty! OVER HERE, YOU BIG MONSTER!" I laughed at the jibe. We all watched as Sharrkan basically plated the beast.
"EVERYONE! Share it harmoniously!" Sharrkan yelled to the people. I sighed.
"How…How skilful!" Alibaba muttered in awe.
"He's only trying to gain attention, that guy…" Yam said in an annoyed voice.
"Show-off" I said. Yam smiled at me and I nodded at her. Sharrkan then stole Alibaba and was joking with him which then caused a huge row with Sharrkan. And then it turned out that Alibaba and Aladdin would be faced off to see who would become the strongest disciple. I sighed.
"I'm glad that I have Masrur with me." Mor said. I smiled and nodded.
"True. But aren't they being a little childish…" I trailed off. Sin smiled and announced training would come tomorrow.
*Time skip*
"Pisti do I really have to wear this?" I asked, I could feel my cheeks burning at the clothes was wearing. A belly top with all sorts of jewellery on and a really short skirt. Pisti smiled.
"Yep! Let's go!" With that I was dragged into the crowds. All of a sudden Pisti pushed me and I fell on top of somebody.
"I'm really sorry!" I apologised, my face burning with humiliation. The person groaned and spoke.
"Urgh, sorry…. ROBIN!?" I blushed and jumped off of Alibaba.
"I-I-I'm sorry! Someone pushed me and…." I trailed off and hid my face with my hands. I felt Alibaba grab my hands and lifted them from my face. He smiled.
"Let's forget that happened. Let's go explore the festival!" I blushed and nodded. Holding Alibaba's hand we navigated our way through the crowds.
"ROAR!" I screamed along with Alibaba at the sudden appearance of a monster. I clung to Alibaba's arm and I realised something.
"ALADDIN! THAT'S NOT FUNNY!" I yelled. Aladdin removed his mask and grinned.
"Hehe Did I scary you two?" I puffed out my cheeks and crossed my arms. Aladdin gave Alibaba a similar mask and then hugged me.
"Robin you look pretty!" I blushed.
"Thank you…." I muttered. Alibaba grinned at all the other girls around. One with red hair came up to us all and gave us flower garlands.
"I wonder where Morgiana is." Alibaba said scanning the crowds. I laughed as Mor lifted up her mask.
"What are you saying Alibaba? I've been here in front of your eyes for a while now." I laughed at Alibaba's face of shock.
"They told me that the young girls have to dress like this and distribute flowers…"
"Really? It really suits you, Mor!" Aladdin said with a smile. I sighed. I bet Sindbad was behind me not doing this with the other locals…
"He's right it really suits you! You are so beautiful that I thought you were someone else!" I watched as Mor crouched down, blushed and puffed up her cheeks. I fell the same way Mor! Aladdin grabbed my hand and smiled.
"Let's go! Hurry up you two! Let's go eat!" I smiled and nodded.
*mini time skip*
"Look at that young girl!" I smiled as Mor danced with all the other women.
"ISN'T THAT MORGIANA!?" I laughed and grabbed Aladdin's hands.
"Aladdin Let's dance too!" I said with a grin on my face. He looked confused. I pulled him up and dragged him to a free space.
"Eh Robin?! I-I don't know how to dance!" I smiled.
"It's easy. You just let yourself move with the music." I said swaying while holding his hands. Soon enough the two of us were laughing, swaying and twirling to the music. Aladdin grinned and then paled.
Robin I-I…
I smiled.
Go to the harbour, I'm sure you'll feel better after a while.
*mini time skip*
I walked over to where Sindbad and the other general were based and I bumped into Mor. I smiled and the pair of us walked together.
"The dance was really nice Mor! You should dance more often!" I said. She smiled back.
"Thank you. Robin… What are we to do in such as cheery place….?"
"I don't know. But I'm sure adventure and danger will come our way again so I'm not going to get used to this." I said. All of a sudden Masrur appeared, offering us food. I violently shook my head while Mor sat down to eat. I sighed at the rude comments Sharrkan was making until Ja'far came along.
"Ja'far how busy will you be tomorrow?" I asked.
"Quiet busy actually, I don't know if we can spar. Maybe ask Spartos or Dracon as I'm sure they would like to help." I nodded. I then saw Aladdin and Alibaba making their way towards us. I smiled.
"Ah welcome back you two. Right I'll introduce you to my generals." After introducing us to the generals and after the festival Sindbad mentioned that Kou was sending some of their royalty to study here.
"Ah Robin!" I nodded at Sindbad.
"Leo messaged me saying he's sending a teacher for you from Neathia to help you train." I groaned.
"What's so wrong with that Robin?" Aladdin asked.
"Because, when my brother tries to set up something to train me I usually end up knowing more than the trainer before he starts teaching…. I hope he has done a good job this time…"
