.: Normal POV :.
Long ago in the small village of Seiyo, there lived a couple that loved each other very much. One day they learned that they were expecting a child. Their love was so pure that there was someone that was disgusted by it. However, one of their friends was disgusted buy the pure love that the couple shared. Which meant that the couple was that much closer to danger.
Months passed and the couple birthed a beautiful baby girl. Upon hearing this the friend went to the Black Witch and asked her to place a curse on the couple's child. The Witch agreed and cast the curse. From that day on, the child was a yellow duck. Her parents were devastated.
They searched for a cure. Hoping beyond all hope that their new baby girl would not spend the rest of her life as a yellow duck. They sought help to the White Witch. The witch told them, "I am sorry, but I can not lift the curse from your child. Instead I can add a new spell that will allow her to be human while the sun is shinning bright in the sky. Although, once the sun sets she will return to the life of a duck. As it is, the only way the original curse may be lifted is for the girl to find her true love. But not just any true love will do. It must be one that excepts her, curse and all. I have also placed another spell on her that will allow her to turn into a swan princess every full moon. However, she will only turn into the swan princess when she's wearing this red jeweled necklace." The White Witch placed the chain around the baby girl's neck. The couple thanked the White Witch and left to their house.
Years passed and the girl grew into a charming young thing. Every full moon the girl would leave the house and head to the lake just outside the village. Rumors started to spread throughout the land of a beautiful Princess that danced on the lake of Seiyo.
The rumor captured the attention of a young traveler. He decided to see if this rumor was true. To his luck he arrived there on the night of a full moon. When he reached the lake he saw the young Swan Princess dancing her heart out. That is, until she saw the young traveler watching her – that's how their love started.
Every full moon the young traveler would come to the lake to just see her. Finally, the young girl couldn't help it and decided to tell the young boy the truth about her curse. After hearing this the boy was surprised, but at the same time he didn't believe her. So the boy told her to come back to the lake tomorrow night. The following day the girl came, only a few minutes after the boy had gotten to the lake. When he saw that she was not beautiful nor ugly but a normal girl with her own beauty and charm he still did not believe her tale, so they waited till night fell. The two didn't say a word to each other. Once night came the girl transformed into a little yellow duck. Seeing this the traveler was convinced that the girl was truly the Swan Princess…
Fakir turned the page of the book only to find it missing the last two pages. "Tsk…the least they can do is take care of the books that aren't their own." Fakir closed the book and looked on the back cover to see who the author was. To his surprise it was none other then the schools headmaster, Tsukasa Amakawa.
"How is it I'm not surprised that it was the headmaster who wrote this?" Fakir stood up from where he was and headed back to the library to inform the librarian about the damaged book.
Inside the library our lovely duckling was chatting away with the wired but lovable headmaster Tsukasa. "So you want me to tell them that my class is also going to cosplay?…I don't see why don't just you tell them yourself?" Tsukasa only smiled at Ahiru's question.
"You know I would, but Ikuto-kun won't let me near him or Amu." Ahiru sweat dropped. He won't let you near them because you keep teasing him with your cat toys.
"Fine…Ah…Tsukasa, I was wondering… Did you allow Fakir Knight to read the book The Ugly Duckling?" Tsukasa looked at Ahiru and smiled once again.
"Why yes I did…Why is it that you ask?"
Ahiru shook her head. "I was just wondering since I was planning on reading it again…" Little did the two know that there was someone eavesdropping on their conversation, and it was none other then Fakir.
"Now why would you like to reread your own story?" Fair was taken aback. What does he mean reread your own story?
"It's just that I like to think that I can truly have a happy ending like the one in the story." Ahiru's eyes soften and a graceful smile formed on her face. Tsukasa on the other hand just patted her head and gave her a kind small smile.
"Yes I know, Ahiru-chan…but remember that a book does not choose the path in which you walk. You make it for yourself. You are the main character in your life. You will choose how to end your story, not a book."
Ahiru gave a small sigh and nodded. "Yes I know…" The two stood up the table they were sitting at and started to head towards the exit. Fakir quickly hid behind a bookshelf . The two didn't notice the boy and left the library.
Fakir emerged from hiss hiding spot. Could it be that she's the girl from the book? Fakir shook the thought out of his head and headed toward the librarian's desk. When he was in front of the woman he placed the book on the desk. "Yes? How can I help you Fakir?"
"I just wanted to inform you that this book is damaged. It seems that there are missing pages." The librarian took the book and looked at the book title.
"Oh this book has been damaged for at least four and a half years now." The librarian passed the book back to Fakir.
"Then why don't you replace it?" The librarian shook his head.
"We can't the author of the book only printed six copies of the book, and now there are only two left…"
Fakir took the book back and thanked the librarian for his help. Why would the headmaster only make 6 copies of the book and not make more? he thought while leaving the library. Fakir was so lost in thought that he didn't notice his legs moving in the direction of the headmaster's office. When he took notice of his surroundings he was surprised to see where he was.
"What am I doing here…?" Fakir turned on his heels and was about to start walking back to class when the door to the office opened wide, only to reveal Tsukasa.
"Why if it isn't Fakir Knight. What brings you here?" Fakir turned to face the headmaster. The blond man had a bright smile on his face.
"Ah…well…you see…" Tsukasa took notice of the book he was holding in his hand .
"I see do you want to know more about the book?" Fakir looked down at the book and then back at Tsukasa.
"Well yes I do…" Tsukasa nodded and gestured Fakir to come into his office. Fakir entered the office to find just about what he expected. The windows behind the desk was unnecessarily big and ran the length of the room. The walls were painted a light lavender color. On the right wall there was a glass bookshelf, filled with books: one or two fairytale collections, fictions, astronomy and such. On the other wall was a normal bookshelf with more books on astronomy, and novels. From the ceiling hung a little chandelier of white crystal. Tsukasa sat behind his desk; The desk was made out of cherry wood, well all the furniture was made out of cherry wood. And Fakir took a seat on one of the chair of the desk.
"So what is it that you want to know?"
Angel-chan: There finished.
Fakir: What that's... it's that short!
Angel-chan: Sorry. I would have made it longer, but my dad was already nagging me to go to sleep.
Ahiru: Well at least its something all right.
Angel-chan: Yup so can one of you-
Mytho: Plz R&R
Angel-chan: Bye guys.
