Chapter 5
Shun felt that they were just few feet above the ground, he was getting ready for the impact but then, he felt that they've fall on something soft and it was the one who saved them from the fall. Shun opened his eyes and found someone: the one who helped them.
(Aya's POV)
I thought I was falling down the cliff fast but how come that I still didn't fall down to the ground. And why do I feel that someone's hugging me while I was falling and this warmth seems so familiar, like I felt it before. Then, suddenly, I've stop falling. Did I hit the ground? Why didn't it hurt?
Then, I felt that someone picked me up and carried me then laid me down on a soft, I don't know bed?
I just lay down there. I'm not unconscious or anything, I just don't want to open my eyes anymore coz I'll just see the reality that I want to escape.
But still, I can feel everything around me. There's someone beside me; two persons or maybe three. And I can here their conversation clearly.
"Princess, what's an angel doing here? And why are we helping her?" a girl said.
"Don't worry; she's not one of them. She's the pure one." Another girl said. I was familiar with her voice; I think I've heard it before, many times.
"What do you mean by she's not one of them?" a guy asked. I know that voice! It was Shun's! But what is he doing beside me?
"That she's not a black angel." The girl with the familiar voice said.
"Black Angel? What…What do you mean…" I said while opening my eyes. Upon hearing black angel, I knew that there's something going on. I know some things about black angels but only few. I only knew what they look like and what kind of angels are they.
"Oh, Aya, good, you're awake." Shun said. Now, I really see who were the persons beside me: Shun, a pink-haired girl with deep blue eyes and she's wearing a somehow dress made from leaves (A/N: Just like what Tinker Bell wears). And the girl with the familiar voice is Alice. She's not wearing her usual clothes; instead, she was wearing a white petal dress and a tiara on her head.
"A…Alice?" I said as I tried to sit up but fell down again. Then, Shun assisted me to sit up.
"Whe…Where am I?" I asked. "You're in Aldenmor, the place where the fairies live." Alice said. "Aldenmor?" I said. "It is the forest where all the fairies live, angel!" the pink haired girl said. She kinda shouted when she called me "angel".
"Rian, don't shout at her" Alice scolded but with a sweet tone.
"So, Alice, what's with the black angels? Is there something going on between the fairies and the angels?" Shun asked.
"The black angels, the altered form of the angels. They have been here for almost two decades and during those years; they always try to conquer the whole world. They want it all for themselves. We, the fairies, are the ones that keep the black angels from conquering the whole world. We've been doing this since that day, the day when the first black angel appeared." Alice said.
"Tell us the whole story, Alice." Shun said.
"You see, since the beginning of time, light and dark are always present in the form of the angels and the demons. The angels lived up in the sky where they can watch over the humans and protect them from anything. While the demons live below the earth so that they could not over come the earth. There's a barrier in the entrance of the gateway to the 'hell' but one day, a demon slipped through the barrier using a magic potion that he created himself. His name was Zenoheld. While he was walking through the 'death forest' or the forest where the gateway is, he cross-path with a fallen angel or the angel that lost her way when she was going up to the 'heaven'. It was love at first sight. Zenoheld fell inlove with the angel named Keiko; Keiko felt the same way to Zenoheld. But they knew they could not be together for they are both all so different; Zenoheld is a demon and Keiko is an angel. But despite these, they continued to love each other. Soon enough, their love bore a fruit; they had a baby and they named him Hydron. Soon, the Archangels knew what happened to Keiko and they wanted to kill the baby for he is the first baby of the demon and angels. And it could unbalance the nature of things. So, they captured Keiko and Zenoheld and they tried to kill the baby but they couldn't for there's a strong power that protects the baby, a black aura in a form of a pair of black wings protected him. The black aura surrounded Hydron and he started to fly away and disappeared before their eyes. They didn't know what to do so they started to look for him but unfortunately, they didn't find him. 16 years after that, Hydron showed up and he was more powerful than ever. He started to take over the bodies of the other angels using his dark aura and transformed them into black angels. That day happened after a blue moon night. And now, we fairies always try to stop them from taking over the human race." Alice said.
"But wait, Alice, you said that it happened after the blue moon night, so it means, it happened after he got away from us during the fight. You also said that he's very powerful but how come I defeated him?" Aya said.
"Yes, it happened that night. Only the Blue Moon Angel has the power to defeat Hydron that's why were here to protect the humans that protected you."
"Huh?"
"Aya, you're the only one who can defeat Hydron only if your true powers is awakened."
"True powers?"
"I'm sorry but I could not tell you what is your true power for no one know what it is. You're the only one who can find out what it is."
"Oh."
"Besides, the Blue Moon Angel that is born at the same time with the black angel is the only one who can defeat him for she has the strongest power of all."
"Born at the same time with Hydron?"
"Yes, Aya, you're born the same time with Hydron. You're both 16, right?"
"Yeah. I guess. So I'm the only one who can save those people?"
"Yes."
"I don't think I can do it. I…I can't…"
"Aya, you're the only one who can do it. Nobody else can."
"But wait, I thought Aya only have her powers during the blue moon night?" Shun interrupted.
"That is true but when her powers are awakened, she can have all the powers of the blue moon whenever she wants. Some also say that if her powers are awakened, the curse Tsuki-Yumi gave to them can be broken."
"Oh."
"A…Alice…I…I can't…I can't do this…"
"Aya, you still have time, you still have time to think about it. We're just here for you."
"Thank…thank you…"
"By the way, Alice, what are you doing here in Aldenmor? I thought you were with your aunt?" Shun asked to change the subject.
"Well, actually, I lied. Since the lunar eclipse is near, I have to be here in Aldenmor." She replied.
"Besides, Ms. Alice is the princess of the fairies!" the girl name Rian chided in.
"Princess?" me and Shun exclaimed at the same time.
"Yeah."
"Why didn't you tell us?" Shun said in surprise.
"Well, it's a family secret" she said with a finger on her lips.
"Oh."
(Shun's POV)
I can't believe that Alice is a princess! Well, she looks like a princess but I can't still believe especially that she's the princess of the fairies! But I'm really glad that she saved us, we owe her big time! But there was something to her in that petal dress, she really looks so beautiful and I think… I'm starting to… fall for her.
I stared at her and luckily, she doesn't notice it. Then, suddenly, another fairy entered the room we're in.
"Princess, the queen wants to see you." She said.
"Okay, I'll be right there. Rian, let's go." She said to the pink-haired fairy.
"Yes, princess."
"We'll leave you two here. Take as much rest as you need, Aya. If you need anything, just tell me." Alice said before she left.
There was silence between me and Aya. I was about to say something but she suddenly spoke up.
"Shun,"
"Yeah?"
"Thank you."
"For what?"
"You're the one who saved me, right."
"Umm, yeah."
Again, silence.
"You really LOVE to run away, don't you, Aya?" I teased her to break up the silence.
"And you really love to run after me," she said. We both laughed. I'm really glad that I made her smile. I really don't want my best friend to be sad, depressed or anything that means sad.
(Aya's POV)
I'm really lucky to have Shun as my best friend. He always there for me and he always make me smile. And I don't know if anyone notice it but Shun isn't sweet to anyone except for me. But I saw him looked at Alice earlier or maybe stared. I have the feeling that he likes her and I think, I'm a bit…jealous. Not that I admit that I'm inlove with Shun or anything, it's just, I don't know, I can't explain what I'm feeling.
(No one's POV)
Shun signed Aya to come closer which Aya did. And when she did, Shun thumped her forehead which made Aya pout. "Don't you ever run away again, ok?" he "scolded" her.
Then, Aya saw the image of her brother in Shun. Absentmindedly, she hugged him. "A…Aya…"
Shun smiled and hugged her back.
Then, Aya looked at Shun. "Shun, thank you very much for everything"
"No problem. I told you, I'll always be here for you." He said. Aya then, kissed him on the cheek. But Shun turned his head and claimed her lips. Aya was a bit shocked but then, she kissed him back. After a few seconds, they broke the kiss and both blushed furiously.
"That…that was…" Aya stammered.
"awe…awesome…" Shun said in a whisper.
"Umm, Shun, didn't you get hurt when we fell?" she said, changing the topic.
"No, I landed on a pile of leaves Alice and her friends made."
"Oh,"
Then, Alice entered the room. "Aya, Queen Lianne wants to see you." She said. "Ok," Shun also stood up and walked behind Aya but Alice blocked him. "Sorry, Shun, it's a private conversation," Shun nodded. "Umm, Alice, can I talk to you?" Shun said with a tint of pink on his cheeks.
"Ok," Alice sat down beside him.
"What do you want to tell me?"
"It's just…"
Me: Chapter 5 is done! Yey! So what do you think?
Shun: It's not good.
Me: I'm not asking you, Kazami!
Shun: Then, who are you talking to?
Me: The readers!
Shun: Hope, there ARE readers!
Me: Shut up, Mr. Two-timer!

Shun: By the way, where's Aya?
