3. Chapter 3

*Normal POV*

"My, my," A male voice said as he held a small child with crimson eyes full of fear. "You are quite the cutie aren't you, Mera-chan?"
"MI-" The toddler was trying to say before she was interrupted by the sound of someone blasting the door open.
"You." The boy scowled as he stared at the dark figure that entered the room.
*96's POV*
"Who are you, and what do you want with Mera?" I asked in a very demanding tone.
"Well, you see this little one and are being expected by somebody very important, and we're running a little behind schedule," The kidnapper said as he pulled the child closer to his chest and opened a portal. "We can't keep her waiting much longer, now can we, Mera?" He finished as he suddenly vanished into the portal with Mera, leaving nothing but red dust behind.
/I need to track him down,/ I thought as I opened a portal myself and went through it. /For who knows what he will do with Mera./
*Normal POV*
"Astral?" A young lady said as she played with her long golden locks.
"Yes," The boy said as he looked at the child that was encased within a Baria crystal. "She has the combined powers of both Astral and Don Thousand, and even the ability to see into people's hearts."
"Sugoi," The girl said as she focused her crystal blue eyes on the orange-haired boy. "Vector, you might as well be my most favorite servant, you know that?"
"Well, if you say so, Vega-Hime."
"You're much better than my younger sister, Venus," She said. "She can't even duel properly!" She said with a laugh.
Then they were interrupted by the sound of Mera's crying.
"Ugh, she's been crying since you brought her to my chambers," Vega said as she covered her ears with her hands. "Well then, I'm just going to have to make her silent." She said as her light-blue eyes shifted into a light pink color as the Baria crystal started to glow with an immense light that lit up the dark room.
When the light had dimmed, inside of the crystal lied a small snow-white kitten that was stuck in a deep slumber.
"What did you do, your majesty?" Vector asked.
"I put her in a small trance, at least until we're done with our little talk."
