Sorry for the wait! Things got weird after the last chapter and I couldnt write to save my life not to mention having to deal with a huge depression and my aunt getting a divorce that is going very badly... Anyways here you go for the next part of my story.

Resume of the previous chapters: A few weeks before Greeta's 16th birthday, Yuuri is attacked and almost dies. Conrad has gone missing while looking for clues on who attacked Yuuri and Yazok is heavily injured. Gwendal called for a meeting of the nobles but during the transport of said nobels, all were attacked and injured including Wolfram, Gwendal and Gunter. Yuuri cannot use magic and is currently unconscious. Greeta just found out that the spirit that she had grown to concider as her mother had previously tried to unleash something dark and maybe evil to destroy humans...

Chapter 6: Time to act

Greeta was shocked as she dealt with the emotions that filled her at the moment. Anger, curiousity, sadness, pain and worry filled her, she had to find the truth. With that decision made, Greeta got up and murmured her thanks to Psyke as the old spirit disapeared but not before saying a few words of advice to the troubled princess.

'The truth is not unique for any event or statement. Everyone depends on those who act, those who watch and those who know. Which one are you princess? Think carefully before you do anything.' With those parting words the spirit disapeared into the growing darkness.

Greeta forced herself to calm down. There must be a reason behind what happened...also that man who was he? He looked a lot like Uncle Gwendal... The teenager yawned, realizing how tired she was and headed to her room to rest. She knew that doing anything when tired was a bad idea. Papa Yuuri said that a person couldnt understand things as well when tired or emotional.

- the next morning-

Greeta woke up at dawn, feeling slightly lost before she remembered where she was and why. Shifting slightly she saw Lisa standing at the window looking worried even more so then before she had left with Shinou. Her memeories of last night still fresh on her mind, the princess decided that being frank was the only way to get answers to her questions.

As Lisa turned toward the princess as she started getting up, Greeta asked I went to the library last night. There was this desk that had unusual energy around it. I asked Psyke to show me its memories... Greeta looked up to Lisa, her eyes showing confusion and curiousity about the events. The spirit sighed before answering as she moved towards the sitting child.

You saw me as I died didnt you? Asked Lisa. Greeta nodded. I see and I suppose you want to know why I did as I did at the time? Another nod came from the teenager. I cannot tell you why or how those events came to be for I do not recall anything before my death. The last memory I have of my life as a Mazoku was of finding a cave in the mountains.

Lisa's eyes were filled with sadness and embarassment at the trouble she had caused. Greeta was surprised at the admission. Is that why you spent most of the day with Shinou? To try and remember? Lisa jerked towards the girl a surprised expression on her face before laughing. Thats not why she spent so much time with me Greeta. Said a voice as the first king appeared before the girls. Greeta smiled amused at his...timely apparition.

Shinou looked first at Lisa then at Greeta before sighing. If you must know, Lisa was helping me as we both went through a very simular experience. I was hoping that talking with someone such as her would help me understand myself a bit more and since she is bound to you. I couldnt do it before. Greeta smiled and jumped off the bed. I see did it help? Shinou shook his head and opened his mouth to answer. He was interrupted by the arrival of Ulrike as she hurried into the room. Her face set in a panicked look bordering on outrage and shock.

Even as Greeta got up to ask what was wrong a shockwave pushed through the now open doors causing everyone except the spirits to fall. The princess hissed in pain as her fall bruised her hands and knees. 'Whats going on?' shouted Shinou as he moved to stand at the door soon followed by Lisa.

Greeta slowly got up and went to check on the priestess still lying on the floor. 'Lisa! Ulrike got knocked out by the blast or the fall!' Lisa didnt budge from her spot at the door, Greeta coiuld hear small muttering between the lady and the transparent man standing beside her. Shaking away her fear, the young princess softly called out 'Helio'

A soft shining light appeared floating above her hand. What can I do for you miss? Greeta whispered hurridly 'Please take care of Ulrike.' The light sank slowly until it rested on top of the uncounscious priestess. While Helio healed the wounded lady, the teenager hurried to Lisa and Shinou's side wondering what could have caused such a blast of wind.

Her answer came in the form of assassins and warriors, all male, streaming through the corridors fighting and killing those who stood in their way. One of the warriors took out a purple red gem and unleashed another blast. Greeta was prepared and lifted a hand and drew an arc in front of her. The blast never reached the girl or her companions as the wind blast circled around them as if protected by a glass barrier.

Greeta almost fell as the amount of energy to use both of the spirits present started taking its toll. Lisa knew it and so did Shinou, with barely a glance to each other they moved. Shinou towards the attackers to try and stop them while Lisa gently took Greeta by the arm and pushed her towards the stables.

There is a second entrence at the back, we must leave now! They seem to be after you. Greeta nodded numbly as she stumbled after her friend and mentor, fear and confusion surrounding her like a heavy mantle, slowing her down. Lisa murmured a few words in front of a unremarquable piece of stone causing it to slide forward silently. With a last glance behind her, Greeta walked into the darkness and away from everyone she knew...
