A/N: Schools been killing me, and I actually have English word-test on Saturday (yikes!). This will be most likely my last chapter for this story this year, as I need to start concentrating on the other stories, before going to temporary hiatus next year (I need to write my thesis Q_Q). I hope that you enjoy reading this chapter.

Festival

"Hurry up, Mamoru! You're so slow" Natsumi yelled to her brother as the two children ran in the streets of Rinka. The whole city was on move - after all it was the coronation of the new Simyachi and everyone wanted to participate in the celebration.

The throne had been very unstable ever since the death of the previous ruler. Many of the powerful houses had been after the crown, but the young Crown Prince had kept his legs on the ground and protected his position as the next ruler. The young adult of 18 years was finally being crowned as the rightful ruler of Mine.

The whole country was celebrating this wonderful event.

"Natsumi, wait for me!" Mamoru shouted desperate as he tried to keep up with the girl. He wondered how the girl could be so fast when all she ever ate were cakes. The two children were heading to the harbor, where one of the city's main events were held. Rinka was famous for being one of Mine's harbor cities and the proud citizens were holding finishing competitions whenever there were reasons to celebrate. Their father was also participating and was one of the front-runners.

"Come on, slowpoke! We're going to miss the event!" Natsumi hurried Mamoru while gracefully slipping through the people that were filling the streets. The girl got further and further away and Mamoru started to think that there was no match for her. She was most likely the fastest child in the city – at least of those who were of their age.

"Natsumi!" Mamoru shouted after the girl, but she was already beyond his sight. Just as the boy tried to pick up speed, he then crashed on someone. For a second everything went black and he found himself on his knees on the ground. "I'm so sorry!" He apologized to the person he had crashed against.

The person was small in structure and was wearing a brown-colored cloak. Their face hidden beneath the hood, but Mamoru was sure that his eyes had met up with a pair of amberish ones. The petite figure got up without even bothering to answer Mamoru and was gone as fast as they had appeared.

Mamoru watched them going, and was suddenly brought back to reality. He needed to hurry after Natsumi! Mamoru took a quick start and dashed forward, hoping that he would be able to meet with his sister and that he didn't miss the competition.

When Mamoru arrived at the harbor the finalists of the fishing competition had been announced. Much like everyone had anticipated, their father was part of the finalists. Mamoru scanned the crowd, trying to find his sister. "Natsumi!" He yelled, hoping that she would hear him.

"Mamoru!" To his relief the girl had heard him and replied to his call. He eventually stopped he girl and started to head toward her. Upon seeing Mamoru, the girl did the same. Natsumi had already reached him when one of the crowd suddenly stumbled on her and she lost her balance.

Mamoru stared horrified as Natsumi fell into the ocean. "NATSUMI!" Without any second thoughts he jumped after her. He had never been to lake or ocean so he didn't know it if he could actually swim, but he had no time worry about that. He needed to save his sister.

The moment Mamoru was underwater; he saw Natsumi's unconscious body and dived deeper in order to catch her. He could only make two strong swings when he suddenly felt the need to breath. Mamoru was in dire situation, he had to make a choice between diving to get Natsumi or pulling up to get air.

Mamoru ended up using all his time doing nothing but thinking. He opened his mouth trying to gasp for air, but only water was filling his lungs. The boy felt his body giving out. He suddenly felt a pressure coming from above him and turned around. He saw a faint figure, but all too soon where was a flash and Mamoru ended up losing his consciousness.

…

…

The young boy was startled awake as he gasped for air. He ended up coughing in order to get the water out of his lungs and stabilize his breathing. "Oh, one of them is awake." He heard a male voice speaking and all of a sudden people gathered around him. Mamoru saw his father walking toward him from the crowd and gulped. The man was wearing rather dark expression.

Mamoru's eyes switched to search for Natsumi. To him, her safety was even more important than the scold he was about to receive for jumping into the ocean despite not knowing how to swim. He finally found the girl laying not far away from him and his expression softened. She seemed to be alright.

Then it finally hit him. "But who saved us?" He questioned from an older man who was sitting near him, as if to make sure that the boy was alright.

The man looked slightly confused. "I don't know actually. It was a small figure that passed by like an arrow. As soon as they got you guys up from the water they disappeared into the ground. We don't even know if it was a girl or a boy." The man admitted, rubbing the back of his head.

"I see." Mamoru said while glancing at the crowd. He then turned his head toward Natsumi, who was getting her consciousness back, only to realize that his father was already before him. This wasn't looking good for him.

…

Meanwhile a small figure was staring at Mamoru from afar. Their face was hidden beneath the hood, but two amberish eyes were glued on the boy.

"Until we meet again, Mamoriaz."

A small figure was sitting on a room, while having their eyes closed. It was as if they were concentrating on something. All of sudden they seemed to catch something and jumped up. "Th- This disturbance in the space and atmosphere. It can't be!" Their voice was full of disbelieve and the mad spitted out some nasty curses between his breaths.

"What's going on, elder?" Two other figures reacted, looking shocked of their elder's behavior. It was their first time seeing their leader and the man they respected looking so out of place. What exactly had happened to make him act so out of character?

"What is that stupid Simyachi thinking? The Gemini have met in some harbor city of Mine, the very thing we have wanted to avoid has happened and now the world is heading toward it's destruction. Everything we've done to keep the two of them separated for past ten years has disappeared has disappeared into thin air." The man tried to explain.

The red-head duo looked surprised.

"You mean?"

"We're heading toward a war here. The birth of Gemini has been prophesied since the days of the Terrien siblings and we have done everything to keep those two separated. Now, because of this simple meeting, the space has been disturbed, the starts have changes places and even the world itself has changed. We're heading towards a war – and I don't talk about some scuffle – it's a continental war."

The other two seemed speechless. They didn't find the right words to react to the situation.

"What is that stupid Simyachi thinking?" One of them retorted, not being able to think of anything better to stay.

"Actually, the Simyachi we discussing this matter with die few years ago. His was crowned as the new Simyachi today." The other one commented, still unable to compretend the words he had just been told.

The Mago sighed. "Talk about coincidences." Irony was surely playing a huge role in this miss calculation of his. He had been too concentrated on reading the stairs and space that he had completely missed this sudden change of throne event happening in Mine. Another sigh escaped from his lips. "I guess we need to start making our preparations. I'll handle the young ruler myself. You head to the land of Zanie and seek out for the Aries of Fire. It's about time to retrieve our youngster back to where he belongs."

"Yes sir!"

Watching the two males hurry from the room, Mago then sighed.

"May all the siblings of Terrien be with us."

A/N: I'm not so sure of what direction this story is going! Q_Q (cries in Finnish).
