(A/N): This Chapter is a entirely about Hinata's story. So it's all in italics to avoid the confusion.
Story:
Once upon a time, in a faraway land, there was boy called Ryan. He was a simple, kind child, who wished to do something better for this world. His parents were not rich, but they did everything they could to raise their son. They both worked hard to earn their livelihood.
Ryan was a smart boy. He did better than most of the kids at his school. His teachers always complemented him. His parents were very proud of him. Ryan slowly grew up, so did their expenses. His parents worked harder to support their son's education. His dreams meant everything to them.
It was just a few days before Ryan's graduation ceremony His father had just received a promotion that day. The entire family was very happy. Everything was perfect. His mother handed him some money and asked him to bring fresh strawberries for the cake she was preparing. Ryan went to the market and fetched his supplies. Returning home, he saw that the door-lock was broken and the main door was open.
"Mom? Dad?" He called, but there was no answer.
He quickly rushed inside and found his house empty. There was no sign of his parents anywhere. He entered the bedroom to see dead bodies of his parents, lying there. Their safe was lying open, and empty. He yelled for them, tried to wake them up, but there was no answer. Their bodies laid there lifeless. He ran outside, calling out everyone for help. But it was too late. Nobody knew what happened to them. Ryan broke into tears. Just an hour ago, the family was beaming with joy. Now everything had broken apart. He felt hollow. The happiness in his life had been replaced by tragedy.
He ran away. Away from the place, trying to escape his pain and sorrow. He ran and ran, as long as his feet could carry him.
He wanted to go away, somewhere far.
He wanted escape the reality.
With his teary vision, he couldn't see where he was going and tripped. He tumbled down a valley. And then everything went black.
Ryan slowly opened his eyes to find himself in a strange place. He was in a house. He rose from the bed and entered the living room.
"Oh! You're awake. How are you feeling?" a lady asked him with a smile.
"I'm fine. Where am I? How did I get here? And who are you?" he asked.
The lady giggled and said "Calm down, child. You're at my home. I'm Maria. My husband found you when he had gone hunting. You were unconscious and hurt. So we took care of you. Now tell me, who are you, dear?"
"I'm Ryan. I live in the...the…the….." Ryan searched his memory, but sadly, nothing. "I don't remember where I lived. Or what was I doing in the valley" Ryan confessed.
"Don't stress on your memory, child. It's ok. It will come back to you slowly. Don't worry" she said.
Days passed by. Ryan's physical wounds healed but his mental ones did not. He stayed in Maria's house. Maria, Edward and Ryan stayed as a new family. Edward taught Ryan many things. Ryan learnt hunting, fishing, sword-fighting and survival in the wild. Everyday Ryan and Edward used to go hunting to fetch meal for their family. Maria taught Ryan the art of cooking. She gave him knowledge about various medicinal herbs, and how to survive in the wild without food. Living in the mountains, the couple knew how to survive here and they taught their child the same. Ryan was a smart boy and learnt everything in no time. The new family lived together happily.
One night, while sleeping, Ryan had a weird dream. It was a small pixie.
"Ryan, you are the chosen one. Save us! We need you. Help us!" she said.
"What? Who are you?" Ryan said in his dream.
"We need you, Ryan. The future of all the Divine Kingdom rests in your hand. Help us! Help us!" she repeated.
Ryan woke up sweating. He couldn't believe his dream. Should he ignore it or believe it? What if it all was true?
Ryan spent the rest of his night thinking. 'If somebody needs me, then I should help them. I WILL find Divine Realm, no matter what' he said, determined.
The next day he told his parents about his decision. They were worried but they understood him. So then, Ryan bid his family good-bye and left for his journey.
As he crossed the valley, he saw a strange light drawing him towards it. So Ryan followed it. The light started to move, showing him the way. After following it for many days, Ryan finally reached an unknown place. The light disappeared.
Ryan searched around the place, just to find a large piece of barren land. The plants seemed to wither away slowly, the land was cracked and the sky seemed dull and dark. Everything was gloomy and dead. Suddenly, a flying pixie flew in front of Ryan.
"You came! I knew you would come. Thank you so much!" the small pixie squeaked.
"So you brought me here, right? What is this place? Who are you? Why do you need me?" Ryan asked the pixie.
"I'll tell you. Have a seat first." she said. After Ryan was comfortable, she started.
"I'm Kaya. And you are in the Divine Kingdom. There are four Realms which together form this kingdom - The Pink Realm which is to the west, The Green Realm to the North, The Golden Realm to the South and The Lavender Realm to the East. At the centre is our Holy Temple.
The Divine Kingdom was a very prosperous kingdom, until the great catastrophe fell upon us. The heavens roared, the sky cried and the earth cracked. The entire kingdom was destroyed. The elders asked one pixie from each Realm to hide the Gem of the Realm and keep it safe. Each Realm had its own gem. The Pink Realm had a Rubellite; The Green realm had an Emerald; The Golden Realm had a Citrine and The Lavender Realm had an Amethyst. The magic of each Realm lied in the gems. I was the guardian of the Rubellite. I hid the gem with me and left this place, following the orders. When I came back, everything was devastated. Everybody had died in the calamity. The magic of the Realm was fading away. I searched out for other guardians. They told me that all the other Realms shared the same scenario. The entire Divine Kingdom was devastated. Nothing could be done to stop it, unless there is a King, a Ruler of The Divine Kingdom. So we need you to restore our land. We need you to be the King of the Divine Kingdom." she explained.
"What? That is impossible. I couldn't be. How can you tell me to be the King? I don't even belong here." Ryan explained.
"You are the chosen one. The Gods sent me to find you and bring you here. I know you are the right King for our kingdom. Save us, please!" the pixie pleaded.
"Ok. I will help you. That's what I'm here for. Now, how should I restore this place?" Ryan asked her.
"First, you have to find all the four gems. Travel across all the four Realms and meet each guardian to acquire the gem. Once you get them, reach the Holy temple. All of us guardians would be there. I will tell you the next thing when you reach there. At dawn, you start your journey. For now, take rest." Kaya said.
Kaya showed him his resting place told him the way to reach the other Realms. She handed him the Rubellite.
"I could have just called the guardians to give you the gems, but I won't. The Gods want to test your capability and besides, a King needs to know his land." She said. Ryan understood that.
The next day, Ryan left for the Green Realm. After travelling farther towards the North-east, Ryan reached the Green Realm. Finding the guardian, he acquired the Emerald. Travelling further, he reached the Golden realm. After a great difficulty, he was able to find the guardian and get the Citrine from the said pixie. Lastly, he reached the Lavender Realm and found the Amethyst. He smirked. He was happy to know that he succeeded in finding the Magic Gems. So then, he headed towards the Holy Temple.
Kaya and her friends were waiting for Ryan at the temple. Soon, Ryan reached there. Kaya showed him the inscriptions and explained them. Ryan learnt about the Magic and the Past of the Divine Kingdom. The pixies placed each gem in the central sanctum and made Ryan stand in the centre. They performed the spiritual ceremony while Ryan chanted the Holy words. Soon the entire sanctum lit up with light. It covered him entirely and spread out like a wave, travelling in all the directions. The light engulfed all of the Divine Kingdom.
The entire kingdom was lit up. Everything seemed magical. Ryan was engulfed in the light. He felt different. He felt strong and powerful. It was like the light was giving him strength. All the Realms were shining by the light. Trees and plants grew out magically, the land was restored back and the sky became bright again.
The light receded from the kingdom, back to the temple. It kept on receding and reached back to Ryan. Now, only Ryan was shining in the bright light. Slowly, the light faded away from his body, revealing his new form.
Ryan's attire was different. He wore a grand crown on his head. His clothes were different. And furthermore, he had gained wings! He himself was surprised. He had transformed into a fairy! The pixies cheered for their new King.
The Divine Kingdom was restored back. Each Realm had a characteristic color to it. The names of each Realm signified the color of the Realm. The Pink Realm had pink trees, pink land pink clouds, everything pink. The same scenario was with the other Realms, except they had Green, Yellow and Lavender colors respectively.
Ryan brought his parents, Edward and Maria to the Divine Kingdom. They were overjoyed to see their son back. The family lived in the kingdom happily. Ryan brought many people from other places to become a part of the kingdom. Soon, the entire land was populated again and the Realms were prosperous again.
Through merit, Ryan chose three more people-two guys and a girl- as Rulers. Soon, each Realm had its own king. Ryan ruled the Pink Realm, Dylan ruled the Green Realm, Sora ruled the Lavender Realm and Jake ruled the Golden Realm. All the four countries were at peace with each other and united. Ryan was the strongest among all and the Pink Realm was the strongest country in the Divine Kingdom.
Everything was right. There was peace everywhere. The Divine Kingdom was restored. Ryan was happier than ever.
