Lisa talking to Greta

Greta's thoughts

"Talking"

Chapter1: Trouble Rising.

Greta was humming while watering her grandmother's garden. Cheri-Obasan was on a trip of Love once more, looking for her true love. Cheri had promised to be back for her birthday ceremony; Greta was turning 16 and thus becoming an adult mazoku.

The teenager couldn't wait; it was going to be so much fun. Uncle Gwendal had promised her to make it as big as the one they had given Papa Yuuri. Ara ara, it's still quite a while before you turn 16, Greta. LISA! Don't tease me please! Greta sighed. "What's bothering you princess?" asked Sangria as she approached with her friends.

Greta gasped and turned to face her maid friends. "Mo! You scared me!" the princess exclaimed. The three maids chuckled softly. "My apologies, but why were you sighing? Is something wrong?" Sangria asked. Great smiled and shook her head, "Just worried about messing something up during the ceremony for my 16 birthday." The teenager told the women in front of her.

"I'm sure you'll do fine princess! Sangria we have to go, Lord Hube wants us to go help Nicola, remember!" declared Doria, tugging Lazania and Effee behind her. Sangria bowed and hurried after the rest of the girls. Greta sighed once more as she followed them with her eyes.

Why do I feel so uneasy...I feel it as well, the spirits in the castle are restless. The mental exchange continues as Greta entered the castle and headed towards the library. She noticed her Daddy Wolfram training his men with Uncle Conrad. "Umm...I wonder what Father Yuuri is doing?" Greta asked softly. A soft wind passed in front of her with it, came a picture.

Her father was sitting in Gwendal's office signing papers with Uncle Gunter and Uncle Gwendal. Father Yuuri looked bored. Greta chuckled at the image before whispering her thanks to the wind spirit that had brought the image to her.

She continued to walk toward the library. Once there, she went randomly choose a book. The title was The Founding of the country of Die Vereinigten Staaten and its fall. Greta had never heard of the country and was curious. Have you heard of this Die Ver..einigten.. Staate Lisa? Yes it was destroyed before the founding of Shin Makoku. Actually, Shin Makuko is right where it would be if it hadn't been destroyed.

Greta was even more curious about the book. 2 hours later, she was still reading it unconscious of the time passing by. It wasn't until she felt a murderous aura enter the room that she lifted her eyes from her book to glance around. The princess was surprised to see a man covered in black overall and with a black mask leaving only his eyes uncovered standing in front of the door. In his hand he held a long dagger, almost the size of a short sword.

Careful Greta, this man is an assassin and a good one at that. Greta put her book down and smirked before replying mentally, I know and I don't intend on playing. I haven't called Trat and Vierna for a while. The man suddenly moved toward the sitting princess. Greta barely moved as she simply called out, "Vierna".

The assassin smirked lifting his dagger to kill the girl. He didn't have time t understand what was going when at the very instant that his dagger pierced the girls chest, his own chest burned. The girl simply smiled and pushed the bigger man away. As the assassin staggered back away from the scary princess, he looked down to his chest where blood was pouring out of an injury at the very place that his dagger had pierced her chest.

Confusing evident in the assassin's eye, Greta smiled and called out "Trat" as she lifted her hand and made a pushing motion towards him. A swirling light moved around the killer, obscuring Greta's view of her attacker. When it had faded, the man was nowhere to be found. Where did you send him? Somewhere in Big Shimaron. "Vierna take off the illusion please and thanks for the help." Greta looked at her reflection as she said that. Her reflection bowed before returning to being normal.

Greta heard Lisa chuckled in her mind but before she could answer, one of the guards suddenly ran into the room screaming "His Majesty has been killed!"

Well that's it for the first chapter of Spiritual Rift. Can anyone guess what kind of spirit where Vierna and Trat?
