The last thing I remember was Amber standing in front of me smirking widely. She told me that I will find out the truth...The truth of the books and their worlds
I was glad I was finally going to know the truth but..
I was alone...
I always had Sakuya with me and now...Now I was totally alone
Alone and in a new world
I was stood in front of crowds of people who were lined up in a two huge lines making a large path which seemed to lead straight to a huge white castle. This place...It was new.
"Of course" Amber's voice sounded
I jumped in shock and looked around but...
I couldn't see her!
Where was she?!
"I am not viewable Seeker of souls...I am now only the voice in your head"
"Oh...Great" I thought
"Look down" she said with actual gentleness so I looked down but my eyes widened.
Beneath my feet was a puddle but it was not my reflection I saw looking back at me.
No...
Amber was the one in the puddle and looking back at me.
"What?" I asked in confusion
"You are now me Seeker of souls...The things that shall happen to you happened to me...You shall feel what I felt and see what I saw...Only then can you fully understand why I did all of this"
I wanted to shout at her but if I did, I would look crazy! Amber was in my mind after all and I cannot shout at her so instead I sounded a long and tried sigh. However I looked at my stomach...
It was healed
"Good" I thought however horns sounded.
"The prince! The Prince is here!" shouted a voice.
My head lifted and looked down to the gate
The Prince?
"S-Sakuya?" I thought but that was impossible!
He's dead...
I should know that...
However a pure white horse galloped threw the gates and straight in front of me. I slightly backed away but I looked up to only be met by purple eyes.
The guy on the horse wasn't Sakuya so I stepped backwards only then did I see a white haired boy wearing blue and white royal clothing.
"Seeker of souls!" he smiled
"Huh?" I thought
Notice: ^ - This means that Amber is talking in only Ryouta's mind to try and make things less confusing.)
^My Deliver of Ice and Water...The kind snow prince of this kingdom..Whenever I saw him there would always be snow^
I quickly looked and as Amber said there was indeed snow but then I looked back at the Prince.
"I have brought a gift!" he smiled but then he handed me a light blue flower clip...The same one Amber wore when I saw her.
"Put it on! It'll match your eyes" The prince smiled
"O-okay" I stuttered not knowing what on earth to say to this!
"I bid you farewell then...For now!" he smiled but then he rode his horse forward.
However my heart...
It was thumping so harshly and I...I was blushing?
"Amber...Did...Did you like the prince?" I thought
^Indeed^
I nodded but then I clipped the clip in my hair however a old man stormed over to me. He had a white beard and hair
"YOU!" he shouted as he stood in front of me
"Me?" I asked
"What the hell do you think you were doing?!" He shouted
"He came to me" I growled but these weren't not my words...It seemed like sometimes Amber would control what I say.
"What have I told you?! I told you to stay away from the prince! He doesn't need a crazy and poor street-rat to make people Judge him!"
"He came to me!"
"I do not care!" the man shouted but then a knife sliced my left cheek
"AH!" I cried as I backed away.
^The Bringer of Justice..He sometimes forgot what his title meant^
At that a image of Yuuya flashed in my mind..
So far I meat to similar people...
^The new souls that find the book must be similar to the one who last held it^
"Stay away from him!" the man shouted but then he walked away.
^The Bringer of Justice the brother of The Deliver of Ice and Water...Just like yours"
"You bring people who are similar to you and the people you new into your words?"
"Indeed...Their souls must match...However you will not meet all of my souls" Amber said.
"Huh? Why not?" I asked
"They are not important...The one thing you have to know is what happened to me which is the next thing you must learn"
"So...So why did I see them two if the other souls do not matter?" I thought in confusion
^They are the only ones that matter^ Amber answered...
At that moment my view changed to a brick room which had two single beds. However my head moved downwards on its own but I saw a letter in my hand. I opened it and read it:
"To Amber,
I want to see you!
I miss you
As you know my brother has been keeping me in the castle!
I can't dare it anymore! I can't be the prince or king he wants me to be!
You're the only person who understands this...And me
Come to the castle tonight and meet me in the rose garden...
Please?
I want to run...
I want to go away from this hell but I...
I don't want to leave you behind...Your my best friend if not more
I love you too much to leave you behind in his hellhole.
Come with me, please?
Join me in my journey to find somewhere better...
I hope I will see you tonight but if not...
This will be the last time you hear from me
I love you...
Prince Jones, The Deliver of Ice and Water"
I stared at the letter as it made my heart thump harder and quicker
It was clear Amber was so happy about this!
She clearly felt something for this prince but...
But for me...Something didn't seem right
Something was a miss...
"Were you good friends?" I asked actually speaking the words and not thinking them
^We knew each other as children...I was always close to him, he was like a brother to me...That "I love you" was just between sister and brother...I knew that but still...I-I was happy^
"You were happy that he offered you to run away with him?"
^Indeed^
I sighed but then my view changed again as Prince Jones was stood in front of me wearing his white cloak and royal clothing.
"You came!" he smiled but then he pulled me into a tight hug.
I froze in shock while I felt my cheeks burn but then he let go, stepped backwards and smiled widely at me.
"Are you joining me? Do you wish to seek a better tomorrow with me?" he asked while I looked into his bright purple eyes
"I..I" I stuttered but I looked down and looked at Amber's body. She was still in her yellow dress with the dark blue scarf around her neck. but then I looked up
"I will" I answered which made Prince Jones smile at me
"I knew you would!" he laughed "let's go! Let's find a new world together, seeker of Souls" he smiled
"Yes!" I laughed at that moment he grabbed my hand and dragged me forward.
"The horses are waiting!" He smiled.
He seemed nice enough but this feeling I felt...Something was not right!
Amber was clearly feeling excited and happy but me...
I knew something was wrong
Why would a prince give up his kingdom?!
"It doesn't make any sense!" I thought.
However I was pulled in front of the stables and to a well. However Prince Jones let go off my hand and turned to me with a smile
"I have got a gift" he smiled
"A gift?" I stuttered knowing that Amber was controlling my words again
"Yeah!" Prince Jones smiled but then he held something in front of me.
It was wrapped in a tight towel but the shape...
It was rectangle!
My hands moved on their own as I took Prince Jones's "gift" and un wrapped it however a light blue book was under the towel.
"A book?"
"Not just a normal book! It is magical!"
"Magical?"
"Yeah!"
"How?"
"It shall give you the gift of creating two different worlds" "huh?" "They can be whatever you wish" he smiled.
"No" I thought
"But I"
"Your title is Seeker of Souls right? Why not be The Creator of the book Worlds? hmm?" he smiled
"But I"
"Not like you have a choice" he mumbled
"WHAT?!" I screamed but those worlds actually sounded to him but he smirked at me.
It was a horrid smirk
"Oh Amber... Amber, Amber...You stupid girl"
"Huh?"
"This world is what I created with that book"
"Huh?"
"I needed to trap a innocent soul to be freed"
"Freed?"
"Freed from the curse"
"Curse?! What curse?!"
"The curse of that magic book...It curses a soul which holds the title "Seeker of Souls""
Wait...what?
"You have been in another world but try not to remember as it is impossible...I wrapped all of your memories"
"What?!"
"I needed you to believe that this world was your own and that I was your friend...To be free from the curse the last Seeker of Souls must trap another soul with the same title...But to be able to do that the two souls needs to meet and the book must be passed on"
"You..You"
"I already gave you my book and you accepted it wilily..."
"But! Your"
"I was never your friend nor The Deliver of Ice and Water...I am The Seeker of Souls just like you... The Deliver of Ice and Water you think I am was actually my brother"
"But he"
"Betrayed you...He helped me wrap all your memories...He did that to only save himself"
"What?"
"If the Deliever of Ice and Water is loyal to the Seeker of Souls they shall be cursed by the book to" Prince Jones said.
I couldn't believe this!
It wasn't just Amber who created worlds by the power of the book it was him too!
They did it so they could trap and curse another Seeker of souls...
"To be freed the curse soul must trap another" Prince Jones said.
So this meant...
I..I was going to be next?!
"NO!" I shouted however I was in a black filled room with Amber standing in front of me.
"NO...NO!" I shouted "It...It can't be true!"
"Each new cursed soul must create two different worlds within the magical book..This shall awaken the curse and pull Souls which hold the title Seeker of Souls...Only then can the last Seeker of Souls wait until their soul is freed by the next cursed Seeker of Souls.."
"You mean...You mean!" I stuttred.
Amber held the book in front of me as I looked down to it. It changed from its dark green colour to a bright copper.
"You are now the cursed soul...You are now The Creator of the Book worlds and you shall create two different worlds which shall drag inoccents in until one of them saves you and be cursed setting you free"
"I..I"
"Once you held the book for the first time your soul has already been trapped. It has already been cursed...I waited until you freed the four twisted souls...I did this so you would save your friends"
"But"
"When you saved them all from their deaths from The Wizard of Dreams you also saved them from the magic of this book which would of killed them all...I was lucky...I didn't have any friends to save but...That meant I was tricked and forced into this curse...I wanted you to save all of your friends"
"That time before...When Anghel truned back time..The Wizard of Dreams weren't killing us all"
"No...It was the book using his body to kill all of your friends...And it would of...if you didn't turn back time and killed your friend."
I lowered my head but Amber pressed the book against my chest
"You must create your worlds now"
But I lowered my head in my hands...
With the book I had to create two different worlds which will pull incconet souls in...Their mission will be as main was...
Fixed the four souls which are cursed only then can they save me...
If they are not strong enough to save my soul then all of the souls which were pulled into the worlds by the book shall die a horrid death.
Anghel protected all of the others from death but...
That only leaves me to be cursed...
I slammed the book out of Ambers hands in anger.
"NO! NO!" I screamed but I slammed onto the floor.
Was this my fate now?
To kill people?!
Why?
Why did this have to happen?!
Why was I the new creator of the worlds in the books?!
I...I was going to send so many innocent souls to their deaths until one saves me and become cursed themselves!
It was so cruel
But I had no other choice!
I had to be alone
I had to create the world's Amber did...
All of what happened lead to this..
This horrid curse..
I looked down to the copper book in front of me.
But I bent and cried
It hurt so much to know that I was actually going to do this!
Why?
Is this the only way I can be freed?
"What if I don't do this?" I asked
"Then you shall stay here in the darkness" Amber answered
Of course...
Of course I would!
"This place will only break you until you create the worlds anyways" Amber said "You must create the worlds when you are stable...If you do it when you are mad the worlds you will create will be horrid and crule leading to so many souls into their deaths diving you even more crazy"
I sighed...
So to protect the souls that my book is going to curse I have to create the worlds now..
Now that I am still me and not filled with hatred and madness because of this black space.
"Huh?!" Amber sounded but then I looked up to her and her shocked face. But she smiled.
"I don't believe..." she stutterd but then she looked at me with a wide smile
"You didn't open the book did you?" she asked
"No...That was...S-sakuya" I stuttered
"My book...It cursed two souls..."Amber stuttered
"We found it together"
"So you shall be cursed together" Amber said.
"Huh?" I sounded but then I looked next to her and there was Sakuya, standing in his fern crossed arms stance I knew so well.
"S...S...S-Sakuya!" I cried as I jumped onto my feet wrapped my arms around his neck tightly.
I was so happy to see him!
I didn't care if he never felt the same!
The last time I saw him he was nothing but blood on the wall and meat on the floor.
I cried more as my hold of him tightened
"As The Seeker of Souls you were cursed straight away once you held it but...But for you Deliever of Ice and Water...You were the one who opened it so you cursed yourself"
"Hmm!" Sakuya growled as he held my arms.
I slightly looked at Amber as she nodded at me
"Your lucky that you have a friend with you" she smiled but then she was gone. However Sakuya pushed me off him.
"S..S-sorry!" I stuttered but he frowned at me.
He hated me
He hated me so much..
"I shouldn't of opened the damn book" he hissed "I should of left it alone like you said!"
"I..I did try and tell you!" I cried "I told you not to open it!"
However he looked at me
"Wh-what?" I asked
"That would of meant you would of suffered this curse alone..and knowing you...You would go crazy and make a horrid world sending so many people to their deaths...If I am here I can stop that! I can stop you from dragging other people into their deaths!" Sakuya snapped.
"That is what I am happy about! Not being here with you or seeing you again but stopping you killing people! We may kill hurdreds together but it be better than thousands which you would of no doubt killed if you were alone and crazy!" Sakuya growled
"Well then I-I am so glad you here!" I cried but he grunted at me...But I launched at him again and pulled him into another hug.
"I...We... We could of stopped this!"
"No! Did you not listen to Amber at all?! She said that your soul was titled Seeker of Souls so there was no way you could of stopped this" Sakuya sighed
I sniffed as I clung onto him
I never wanted to let go as I wasn't alone anymore!
I got to stay with Sakuya now!
"I missed you" I sniffed
"Hmm" he sounded but then he pushed me away from him again and picked up the new book in his hand.
"Amber called her book "The Mazed Worlds"...What shall you call yours?" Sakuya asked
"Ours"
"Whatever"
"How...How about...How about "The Magic Book of Mysterious Worlds"?"
"Actually...That is not a bad name...It should draw people in and open it"
"After all" I said
"What could possibly happen by opening a book" we both said together
I smiled as Sakuya nodded
It was indeed really nice for him to be with me
It would make the pain easier
It would make the wait easier...
"You may not forgive me but...but I am glad you're here" I smiled
"You pushed me to my death and I blew apart...You expect me to forgive that?"
"No...Of course not...I am not asking you to forgive me but...I do ask...That you help me through this curse...I ask you to stay by my side so we can do this together like before! So we can be freed together" I said.
Sakuya sniffed while he gave me angry daggers but he nodded
"Doing this together will be the best plan...But once over I do not want to see your damn ghost again! What you did is not forgivable!" Sakuya snapped
"I...I understand" I stuttered
"So then...We should create the world's for The Magic Book of Mysterious Worlds...Only then can we wait for unlucky souls to enter our worlds to try and save us"
"This might take years"
"Amber waited for hundred years...We may be waiting longer or shorter...We just don't know"
"R-Right" I stuttered
Sakuya then sat down on the floor so I sat next to him. Not to close but close enough to feel his body heat.
We had to create horrid worlds together and watch innocent people dye until one of them saves us so we can pass the curse onto them...
A horrid thing to do...
But...
Sakuya was here...
He might hate me but his very presence will make everything a little easier
Together we will create two horrid worlds,
Together we shall wait for someone to save us,
And together we...
We shall be freed from the curse of the magic book
For now
We must create the world's within our book
The Copper book we shall title:
The Magic Book of Mysterious Worlds...
...Fin..
