Ai's Perspective :

I walked through the long hallways of this castle. It had some kind of air that said to just stay away. But then again, I'm a Hinamori. I'm not that frightened by mysterious things. I continued to walk and pass many doors. I never knew that it was this big before. It's changed a lot even since I was little and me and my sister walked through these halls.

I still remember when we stepped upon the prince stuck on the chandelier, crying like a baby. Amu piled chairs on chairs to get to him, but she was still a bit short so I put her on my shoulders. We got in so much trouble and was given a big lecture. But like any other kids, we didn't listen. We didn't even understand all the words that the adults were saying. We were only 3!

It was funny though. Since then we've been friends. Like, really good friends. And somehow I had fallen for Ikuto. His parents had wanted him to marry one of us and big sis had said to marry me instead of her. Saying that she didn't like to be "royal" and were all the big fancy dresses. She wanted to be free. She was a bit oblivious when it came to her love interests. She could spot a wonderful couple from anywhere, but when it came to her, she hated to be in the spotlight.

I'd known that Ikuto had loved my sister for a long time, but she was always traveling from here to there. She even made friends with a bunch of dangerous pirates! She is just too free-willed. We could never catch up to here and just let her do what she pleased, being free and exploring the world. We always knew that she would come back. She made that clear everything she had come back to home.

I always admired was so wise even though she's still just a teenager. She had understood my position and offered me to Ikuto, knowing that it would have made me happy. I truly am grateful to her. I wish that I could've helped her with love as well. I sigh and see that I've ended up in the main hall once again. "My, this place is a total maze," I whisper to myself.

I go a different direction and I currently am standing in front of a large door with golden handles and intricent designs of graceful flowers on the perimeters of the door. It looked like it would've belonged to heaven if it was not in this castle. I hesitated to open the door. What if it was a trap? Or that it would set free all kinds of evil like Pandora's box? I shake my head clear of those ridiculous thoughts. I will be strong like my sister.

I reach my hand to one of the golden handles. It gives me a cold sting, but I still slowly pull on it. The door creaks and I guess it's because nobody has ever oiled the hinges. I step inside and bring my head up. All I see is darkness. Just darkness. The is a painting in the middle of the room. A blanket is covering it. On the blanket is a red substance that has dried up. The blanket is dusty and I slowly approach the painting.

I lift up one of the bottom corners and throw the blanket to the ground. I look at the painting and suddenly tears come rushing out. The painting shows me or is it my sister? There is a shadow with sparkly eyes surrounding the pink-haired girl, like it's embracing her. One of the eyes of the girl is slightly open and shows a happy and warm shine. Are they lovers? I really want to know for some reason. A small smile graces the girl's lips and she is wearing a simple strapless red dress. But the thing is that, it seems like the painting is semping out of the canvas and there's also a knife stabbed through at the top of the canvas.

I quickly run out the room and close the door. A lock appears on the door. It has a four-leaf clover that had cryatl in it's mold. The lock itself was golden with a perticular shine. I turned my body and ran away from the door. I ran as fast as my legs could've taken me. I got tired and put my hands on a random wall, trying to catch my breathe. Tears still ran out of my eyes and I don't know why. The painting came into my mind and my tears came out even more.

I looked around my surroundings and found that my room was just to the left of me. I pulled my body off the wall and went to my room. I flopped onto the bed and I covered myself in blankets. Tears still came out and I shivered a little. It was so scary. I thought to myself,' When had I become like this?'
