EoS: So, in this chapter we get to see some of Sarah's past. Please review!
Lauren: Great, more depression.
Light's champion:
EoS: Um, okay… No…
TheDragonsInferno:
Lauren: You should have, it's very depressing. Very depressing.
Rocky-King of the Tyranitars:
EoS: Why, what did she do?
Amalgam:
Lauren: Yomi is brilliant, but she doesn't help people. She gives people the strength to help themselves. That's all.
Mr. Brandloyal:
EoS: Yeah, it's a very convenient writing device.
Aurore's Moemon Adventure
Chapter 82
"Who are you?" Aurore asked, frowning.
"My name is Sarah." Sarah said, smiling, staring at Aurore. "It's so nice to meet you again, Aurore…"
"I'm sorry, but I don't know you." Aurore said, frowning.
"That's fine." Sarah said, smiling sadly. "You wouldn't have remembered me."
"Why are you here?" Aurore asked, staring at the girl.
"Simple." Sarah said, smiling. "I was forced from Sora's mind. I should have disappeared into nothingness, but instead… Thanks to the power Miss Yomi gave me, I can exist outside of Sora's mind."
"I see…" Aurore said, frowning.
"I also have the power to change time slightly…" Sarah said, smiling sadly. "Please… Let this be my last gift to you."
Sarah snapped her fingers, and Aurore blacked out.
Aurore awoke in a bed, within a room he'd never seen before.
"The hell?" Aurore asked, sitting up, frowning. He felt a tingling feeling on his chin, and ran his hands across it, feeling the roughness of stubble.
Aurore walked over to the mirror in the large room, noticing what he looked like.
"Whoa." Aurore said, surprised, admiring his reflection. He had short black hair, and he did indeed have a hint of stubble on his face. He had black eyes, and wore a grey turtleneck and dark black pants. He turned to the brown duster hung by the door, and his eyes brightened.
"What the heck." Aurore said, shrugging, reaching for the duster.
"Hello, Aurore." Sarah said, appearing in front of him, Aurore jumping back.
"Where is this, a dream?" Aurore asked, frowning.
"Nope." Sarah said, shaking her head. "I've actually sent you back in time, so be careful not to change anything."
"Why?" Aurore asked, frowning. "Why would you do this?"
"I wished…" Sarah said, sighing. "I wished I could have been with you. And this was the only way I could have."
"I don't understand." Aurore said, frowning.
"Right now, you're under the guise of a man named Kallin Hardess." Sarah said, frowning. "In that disguise, you should be able to easily enter and exit any building in the tower. That's all I can tell you."
Sarah smiled sadly, and disappeared into sparkles of light.
"…" Aurore said, frowning solemnly, and walked out the door, bumping into a young girl of about eight.
"Oh, I'm so sorry!" The girl said, blushing, bowing apologetically to Aurore.
"Sarah?" Aurore asked, confused.
"Yes, I'm terribly sorry, sir!" The girl said, looking down sadly, frowning. "Please, I apologize for bumping into you like that… I haven't been working here very long, I just…"
"Sarah, it's fine." Aurore said, patting her head. "I haven't been here very long, either."
"Sarah, what are you doing?" Aurore turned to see a young woman in her early twenties walk up to them, frowning. She had a very professional look, and had shoulder length blonde hair. She had piercing blue eyes behind wire rimmed glasses, and wore a black shirt and black skirt. She stared at Aurore, frowning.
"And who are you?" She asked, frowning disapprovingly.
"My name is Kallin." Aurore said, smiling innocently. "Kallin Hardess."
"Never heard of you before." The woman said, frowning. "But it doesn't matter. Sarah, we must be going."
"Really, Sephiria?" Sarah asked, excited. "Where are we going to, huh?"
"The Young Master is returning to the house." Sephiria said, smiling. "I believe you should meet the man you will be serving."
"Yes." Sarah said, nodding, excited.
"Serving?" Aurore asked, confused.
"Yes, after all, Sarah is one of the many servants who work for the Reinhart Family, and it is her job to be of use to the Young Master in any way he deems her necessary.
Kallin nodded, and trailed after the two. They walked down the long hallways of the tower, and up the stairs as they arrived on the ground floor. Sephiria led Sarah into the lobby of the tower, where a large crowd of people had already gathered.
A young boy of no older than six stood beside a quite young Ghetsis, his brown hair covering his eyes as he looked down.
"It is my pleasure to inform all of you that our Young Master Aurore has agreed to join with the family and put his talents to good use!" Ghetsis said, smiling. "Hopefully, Master Aurore will be the shining star we need to guide our family in the right direction!"
Yeah, I remember that day… Aurore thought, nodding. My mom had died so soon after, I couldn't…
Sarah stared at Aurore and smiled, shoving her way through the crowd to get a better look at him.
"Now then, however, it seems that our Young Master will have to get to his studies." Ghetsis said, turning to two suited men, who nodded in agreement and placed hands behind the young Aurore's back, guiding him towards the exit of the room.
"…" Sarah said, looking after Aurore, Aurore slightly turning his head. Their eyes met across the room, and Aurore smiled and lifted his hand in a light wave as he was guided out of the room, Sarah holding her hands over her chest.
He looked at me… Sarah thought, blushing.
So, it seems Sarah has become smitten with him… Sephiria said, staring at Sarah, pressing her glasses up her face. Excellent. That will make it much easier for her.
"Kallin." Sephiria said, turning to Aurore, who glanced over to her.
"Yes?" Aurore asked.
"I would like you to temporarily take charge of Sarah." Sephiria said, frowning. "I have some preparations to make, so I hope you can help guide her."
"Understood." Aurore said, nodding. "I guess I can help her."
"Sarah." Sephiria said, turning to Sarah, frowning. "You'll be under Kallin's care, understand?"
"Yeah…" Sarah said, nodding, not having heard a word from Sephiria as she looked after Aurore.
EoS: Aw, how nice. If only it stayed that way…
Lauren: But knowing you, it won't.
