Chapter VII: Family History & More
Rose's P.O.V.
" What the heck?" I held the pendent in my hands, turning it this way and that to look at it from all views. Glancing at Isatho, I could see that she is relieved about me holding this thing. Why, I don't have a clue, like when I first arrived here. Everything's too damn confusing. " What's with the look Isatho?"
" You would find out Rose, once you put it on." I see happiness dance in her eyes and hear it in her voice. I've never been able to see or hear something like that before. This sort of ability as far as I know of to find feelings in a person's eyes and voice belongs to demons like Sesshomaru. Why after the big transformation could I now tell in people how they feel? I can even feel how they felt about something.
Pushing this aside, I looked at Isatho again. " There's much I don't know Isatho. Is there something that can help answer my questions? Like a library?" Surprise filled her eyes, but as suddenly as it was there, it was gone. Replaced with astonishing of my asking.
" Of course. How you know there is a library in this temple, I don't think I'll ever know."
" There is a library here? I was really guessing about it."
" I guess you guessed right." Robert said to me happily. Maybe a little bit too happily. Turning away from Robert, I realized why the room was extremely quiet. All the robed people were gone. How the hell did they get out without me noticing?
" So Rose," Isatho began. I turned to her at her voice. " Would you like to visit the library?"
" That would really be helpful. Arigatou Isatho." Isatho began to head to the doors she came through, beckoning me to follow.
When we reached the set of doors, Robert opened one door. Upon entering the room, I believe that my mouth has dropped to the ground! The room was extremely HUGE! Walls filled of books surrounds the group and me! The ceiling is domed, bearing pictures of a white cheetah, a white jaguar , a white tiger, a red panther, a blue lioness, a black dragon, and a black lion. The cheetah, tiger, jaguar, panther, and lioness were fighting the large black dragon and the powerful lion while the scene looks like a forest turning dark with the sun being blocked by some sort of object. Probably the moon. I also noticed that there is other creatures fighting with the cheetah and others against the dragon and lion. There is a silver hawk, a black falcon, three white dogs, a red wolf, a golden-brown eagle, and a number of humans. All of them fighting the team of dark creatures. I also noticed that surrounding the cheetah is spirits of a golden eagle and a white wolf. And with the white tiger is a demon in its humanoid form.
( AN: If you want a description of this demon, check my friends story, 'Ultima Mages Part 1: Gathering' by Coalar Lee Drake. Our stories are linked to each other. There will be other stories that goes with mine also. My story is my point of view, Coalar's story is her point of view, and so on. Here's the list of people that will make their stories with us: Kat ( In her story, she is Kaisume Karamaru. See why she's called Kat?), Jackie ( I will have to put her story on my profile if she wants to), Jenny ( I would have to put her's on my profile: she doesn't have a computer), Anna, Lara, Rain, Lizzy, Anthony, Kiley, and Devon. ALL these stories are one large story, but by different points of views, thus, different stories are told.)
On the another part of the ceiling is the white cheetah and the white jaguar Vs. the black lion and the white tiger Vs. the black dragon. The whole thing is truly impressive.
I was suddenly brought back to the present as Isatho began looking though a self. After a little bit, she found what she was looking for. She pulled it out and headed to the table in the middle of the room. From my spot by the door, before I received my powers, I probably wouldn't see the words on the cover. But I do have my new powers, so I can see that the title of the book is Guardians History.
" What's that?"
" Come over here and see for yourself."
' … whatever.' I walk over to the table and sat across from Isatho. She slid the book to me for me to read. I opened it up and began reading.
Malshano's P.O.V.
" Lord Malshano! Look at what I can do!" Little Rain was showing Malshano what she learned earlier today.
AN: I forgot to mention that the Demon world's time is faster than Rose's planet time, though the people in the demon's world doesn't grow older or faster than the humans. Just to fill you in!
" Very good Rain. Keep this up and you'll be a very strong warrior. Right now, you can go play until supper. But change into your regular clothes."
" Okay!" Running off to change and play, Malshano sat there alone, thinking.
'The girl is a extremely quick learner. But how is it that she reminds me of someone?' Malshano picks up the Chaostic Life sword. 'She is different from anyone, even from the White Cheetah. But at the same time, she is like that damn demon.'
" Lord Malshano?" He turned to the servant that was cleaning the training dojo, for Rain was accidentally destroying a few things when she began training. " You can train if you want to Milord."
" You are dismissed." The servant bowed and left. Leaving Malshano to train with his new sword.
' Might as well train again before tomorrow.' So he entered the dojo and began to cut the dummies set up for him to train himself.
Rose's P.O.V.
" This is just too weird…" I shut the book I just finished reading. " What is it that I have that my sister doesn't? Or anyone of my family members?"
" We don't understand either Rose," Isatho said softly. " But for whatever the reason is, you are the one that Life has seen fit."
" I guess so… Um… I think I should retire to my temporary room. I'm a little tired right now."
" Of course. Robert will direct you through the halls to your room. Good night Rose."
" Yeah… good night." In my mind though, I know I'm in for no dreamless sleep.
Back in the room…
" Calm down Rose."
" Really Kate? You think? Opps, there I go again…"
" Opps, I did it-"
" Melody! No Brittany Spears! Listen to it on the CD player please."
" Okay!" Little Melody ran over to my backpack that I was wearing before I was kidnapped. Who would have thought that when they're not hiding that some would act likes 5 year olds? At least Kate and Trila acts as adults.
" Anyway, sorry Kate."
" No biggie."
" Hey Rose! You want to know something?"
" Not really, but you're going to tell me anyhow. What is it, Melody?"
" I have the ability to make doubles of anything! Watch!" And where the CD player was placed at just became two! " See? Isn't that cool?"
" Holy what'chamacallit!" I stared at the once one CD player in amazement. " You really did make a copy…"
" Yep! Now if we want something that another has, just call me!"
" ( She is so wasteful of her powers-)"
" I am not!"
I could tell that this will continue between the two cats. So instead of listening, I went over to my bag and brought out my flute. I sat on my bed and began playing 'The Melody of Life' just to block them out and calm my nerves.
Little does she knows that her animals stopped fighting and listened to Rose's song. And everyone in that pyramid all just listened to the soft, soothing, but sad song. All feeling calm just from Rose. Who would have thought that she could do that with her flute, guitar ( it happened to Robert… he couldn't feel anything but the calmness of listening to Rose.), or even by her singing or humming that she could relax people from their despair or frustration? So everything was calm except Rose's mind, replaying in her mind the horrible deaths of her families end. And when she slept that night, she has the nightmare of her as she now is being trapped in a sphere, watching Voldermort killing her family again. Watching as he disappeared, and her previous self before the transformation crept from her hiding spot with her forehead bleeding and crying over her parents. Then the nightmare switched to Voldermort laughing at Rose as she struggles against the chains that holds her to the floor. Then Voldermort disappears again, but golden spheres appear, but very far away. So far away that she almost dismissed them as illusions. And inside the spheres are people, but they could only be seen as shadowed figures.
Then she wakes up and finds that it has only been an hour that she slept. And now she is surprised that she didn't cry out loud, just crying. Finding that she just can't fall back asleep and not even tired as she was an hour ago, she lies there in silence, crying to herself until it was dawn, still not asleep.
