Hello, guys! Hope you still stick around with me in this story. I know that you think that this main OC is so annoying and so Mary-Sue. But actually, she has the flaw too. Just stick around and you will see. Also I will try to improve my writing as much as I could.
' This is Morana's mental conversation'
' Rou's thought and her talk with Morana'
" Rou's talk"
" Morana talk when she possessed Rou"
Morana casted her spells in her own language
Be Strong
Rou touched her lips absentmindedly. Why did she kiss him? Why she felt nostalgia whenever she was with him? Rou furrowed her brows as she was questioning herself for the her action. However, she couldn't put her finger on it. It was like whenever Nightwing was by her side, she felt warm and alive. And without him around her, she felt so empty. Was it because Nightwing was the only thing that connected to her and knew what happened at that nightmare place just like she did?
Rou pressed her lips, feeling upset with herself for not being able to help anyone and Nightwing since he still omit her the most important information about her parents. Although, she understood that he was overprotective to her even she didn't know why. But, she wanted to find the answer about her past on her own.
' Maybe it's time for me to act on my own.'
Rou thought as she walked to the hologram room where the Team always met up before the mission. Drawing the scythe, she closed her eyes, mentally drawing picture of the archeology building in her head where Morana felt that the first part of her stone inscription was there.
" Rou! What do you think you're doing?!" Aqualad confronted to her. Rou looked at him nervously before the determination was showed in her yellowish inhuman eyes.
" I'm so sorry, Aqualad. But, I can't just sit around and see you guys were hurt because of me...it's time for me to take my responsibility." Rou gave him a sad smile.
" My existence seemed to cause everyone a lot of trouble especially, Nightwing..."
' Rou, the gate has opened. Let's go.' Rou turned around and walked toward to the portal that she had summoned.
" Rou!" She heard Aqualad's voice before the portal closed behind her...
…...
Once she stepped her foot, she noticed that the floor she stood on was covered by the snow. When she looked up, it made her jaw drop in astonishment.
The Chicago archeology building had turned into enormous freezing room. Well, more like freezing building. Every inch and part of this building was covered with the ice, glacier, and snow. The most peculiar thing was there was the snow falling inside the building and it's starting to pile up consistently until she had to sweep it with her feet to clear the way.
" Magic...whenever they were made from hatred, suffering, regret, and any negative emotions, they will be out of control and create the mass destruction. Rou, Morana's power is based of the emotion. If you still let those negative feeling get you, you will lose your way to find the answer and everything will be in vain..."
Dr. Fate explained at the-matter-fact about in his emotionless voice as he suddenly appeared behind her. Rou watched with awestruck and almost slipped on the icecap. Luckily, Dr. Fate held her arms in time before the gravity brought her down. She smiled at him for saving her but when she saw his stern looks, her smile were faded.
"Are you going to say that it happened because of me?!" Dr. Fate said nothing and stared at her calmly.
"I know..I shouldn't let my emotions or anger get in over my head." Rou looked down guiltily. " But, who won't be when you found out that your parents was in the hand of the psychopaths?"
" Then BE strong! For them and for yourself. You cannot defeat Simmons and his gangs if you let him rouse you. Right now, he knows your weak points; Your family and your past. To overcome it, you have to find those two things before he did. First, you have to recover your memory as much as you could. There might be the answer about where they kept your parents." Dr. Fate stated which made Rou feel moved by his words. ' Dr. Fate is right. I have to be strong for my parents and my self.' Rou nodded and summoned the scythe in her hand.
' Em...how can I find it?' Suddenly, Rou felt the coldness ran into her spine, sensing that Morana want to slap her's head. Rou could be a little dumb even she had learn how to use the scythe.
' Fool mortal. I have taught you, haven't I? Take a deep breath and slowly exhale it. Once your mind was calm, concentrate it to the surrounding. Close your eyes' Rou did as Morana instructed her. Then, she felt like she only heard her labored breath when she felt something coming to her way but she still closed her eyes for focusing on searching for the stone tablet.
' Thinking that your mind is flowing like the water, finding the way through the channel to reach to the ocean. When you heard the humming song, that's what I'm looking for, the stone inscription of Death. Focus your mind to locate it or mark it. ' Rou breathed as she imagined her mind move swiftly in liquid form, locating the rune.
' I think I found it!' said Rou hopefully when she felt the energy from somewhere belowing where she stood.
' Could be around B5 or B6. Why the hell does this research building need keep the rune in the deep ground?'
' I don't know. Aren't you mortals always do something illogical ALL the times?'
' Touche...'
