Chapter 22 - The One That Chosen By God

Somewhere at the South Pole... The frozen sea suddenly split apart. The sea water shook as if hit by an earthquake, creating waves hundreds of meters high. Followed by a bright light that made the sky look like daytime.

"This world can no longer last long. Sooner or later humans will destroy each other." There was a sound that echoed from all parts of the area where the light was lit.

Then a blue light from a distance fell following the previous light which began to darken.

"Zephyrus." The blue light said the name of a goddess.

"Lipís. Looks like you were also called off here." Zephyrus suddenly showed her form after the two lights dimmed.

"Isn't it time to impose punishment on those greedy humans?" a Goddess figure appeared from the blue light, the goddess had black wings just like Zephyrus.

Dum. A sound of both of their feets echoed around the globe. Like an heavy impact surfaces the world lands.

"Leave this planet. You're not the one who will bring a punishment."

"Hah~ I knew you're planning on something from the start. After all you are to attached with that human girl that you met that night."

On hearing that, Zephyrus raises her hand toward Liptìs,

"Leave. This is mine."

"Oh hoo~ You threatening me-"

"I already give you enough many of your selfishness. Just like that body."

The smiling Liptìs flies away up to the unknown,

"Sure, sure. I'll wait for your epic scene when you destroys this planet, Zephyrus."

Hearing the Last word from the blue goddess, Zephyrus turn her sight to the icy mountains.

"Let's end this, Vanny."

"Second floor of X.A.G Academy"

The atmosphere became very quiet at the academy after the announcement of the termination of teaching activities following Annabelle's disappearance. Only Asahin was seen looking at the blue sky.

Asahi wears her tactical gear uniform for some reason, folding her hand waiting for someone.

"Asahi, we're going."

Asahi turn her head to the back,

"Oh, Sanna. I thought I will be going with Saega."

"We got changed by Ai, Taka already go with Saega."

"Eh?!"

"Both you and me team up for the rest of the week."

"Ehhh?!"

Asahi is shocked, dishearted hearing Sanna's.

"Oouh... I thought this is a perfect opportunity to shows our training result."

"Hey~ He has a good point, what if you lost control? I can't just run to your place just to stopping you. It's tiring"

"Aw~ You love me don't you??? Don't you?????"

"God, I hate this girl..."

"What did you say?"

"No- nothing lets get moving now, we don't much time."

Both of them walked away, still Asahi throwing a joke to Sanna to tease her. They become noicy even in the empty hallway.

On the parking lot, both of them embarks the car that have been prepared by Takaya to ride along toward they are pointed too, an started engine sound very loud, although they are riding a supercar.

The car left the academy towards the city.

"Of all people please can you slow down?!"

"Hey this car can't be driven slow!"

Sanna being terrified by Asahi driving skills. She drive like she was alone.

"Hey Sanna..."

"Hmm?"

"Say, Do you liked Takaya?"

"Wh-what?!"

Sanna raises her eyebrow, surprised by the question.

"What's gone into you... Suddenly ask that kind if question..."

"You change your hair style~ a virgin sign as they are in love."

"Hey~ You also in love with Takaya didn't you? What's up with your soften attitude toward him?"

Sanna reveals that Asahi's attitude changes from the oast month.

"You are clingy, become so attached to him, you go every where he goes."

"Envy??"

Asahi teasing her again, while Sanna began to blushed her cheek,

"Shut up..."

"Ahh, as i thought! Sanna-chan is envy~"

"I said Shut Up!"

"Awwww. Come onnnn...."

"You're annoying..."

"Am I~"

Asahi laugh joyfully by teasing Sanna, showing her annoyance toward her, continues to tease her more.

Along the road both are like a childrens, joking around and teasing eachother. Like they are forgetting their mission from the beginning with.

Sanna look at Asahi joyf face, but a flashing images month ago flashes, it is the time when Asahi's other self talk to her.

"Asahi..."

"My, my... Asking for some advice, Sanna-chan???"

"I'm asking the girl that's inside you..."

Asahi expressions changes,

"Who is she?"

Asahi grips the steering wheel, twitches a little on hearing that question.

"She felt that..."

"What?"

"My presence... What will you do about it, Asahi? What is your answer?"

A voice speaks inside Asahi's mind.

"Asahi.. Asahi!"

"Yes dear?"

Soon after Sanna touches her, she quit spacing out.

"Oh whatever! Just focus on the road!"

"Ahh haha~ sorry.."

Asahi smiled joyfully again. But even though Saana realized that fake smile.

"Heliconia, Southern City of Hiltonia"

"Rin, I arrived at the incident location."

Takaya along side Saega is near of the location that Kanon suddely missing.

"Great! As planned, turn on the device and move around until you got high reading."

"You're planning to get my ass busted again, huh"

"That depends on you, brother~"

Inside a building school, Takaya and Saega walks around with a device in their hands, They do exactly like Rin's instruction while speaking with her big brother in the other end of the communication device.

A device that created for detection of the ancient warriors power signature.

"You siblings are odd."

"Hey! I heard that!"

"Nothing is oddly enoung than us Saega..."

"But two of you, seems like doesn't have any worries abouts your well-being..."

Saega smile awkwardly reacts at both sibling's

"Saegapii~ Me and my big bro are great combinations in this mission."

"Yeah, combination of weird."

Takaya adds his little sister words. The two being awkwardly hilarious to Saega.

They walked around until they found their self on the underground floor of the building.

"Rin... Come in."

"Sounds like our comms are blocked by this depth of the building ."

"Yeah.. its seems like that..."

Takaya turns around to Saega,

"Did you find anything?"

"Nope, You?"

"Strangely I don't. But we continue to walk furthermore."

Takaya began to walk towards the dark hall, sounds of electric generator is heard around the hall alongside their footsteps.

Going inside each doors and checking the device if it's catching a signal, but non of them shows anything.

"Say Takaya, what do you think about Asahi's condition?"

"She is... Weird. Honestly I don't know what I have to say."

"Her condition... How ever I feel she is hiding something..."

Surprisingly, Saega had a sense of hidden things in her mind towards Asahi.

"Why did you think like that?"

"During our fight, if felted her changes of aura, her appearance might like her, but inside, like a different people is controling her."

"She did confess that earlier today was she?"

"Yeah but... I felt... Asahi is just a someone that supposed to be in her body. It's like, she's not Asahi..."

Takaya suddenly stops his walk on hearing Saega's thoughts of Asahi.

"You actually think that way?"

"Yes..."

Takaya once again turn aroud facing Saega,

"We have a same thoughts then..."

"You did?!"

"Yeah, more than that, I felt, Everytime I seeing her... I think she's like a part of me that I can't remember what she was for me."

"Sorry?"

"It's like, somehow... She's like once is my family..."

"You mean... She's like your sister?"

"I can't say that for sure. But you can say that way..."

Shockingly enough Takaya had that thought, but he wasn't sure about his own thoughts.

"But it's not that seriously I think about Asahi's with her condition, All of this might have a connection with the Memory Manipulation thing thatbthe first Forgotten do."

"Asahi indeed The Forgotten Princess now... Don't you think it's time to look at her instead finding the missing person?"

On hearing that Takaya smiled at Saega, weirdly enough for Saega seeing that reactions,

"Mine or hers, can be solve afterwards. Besides, I promised you to help you find your little sister didn't I?"

"Yes you did, but Takaya-"

"Our priority is to find your little sister and Annabelle. Other than that we can see through it later."

Saega sees a point of Takaya thoughts, finding her family is more important for now. But deep in her mind she still had a one thing to say to Takaya,

"All right, Takaya... I get that.. But let me ask you something for last."

"What is that?"

"If... What you thought about Asahi indeed a real thing that happened between you and her, or whatever the thing is she had hide or forget, then what will you do?

Her question is more further ahead than Takaya ever think of it. Never he thinking about that in the first place.

"I... "

"You don't know what you will do, did you?"

As she thought, he never think about it.

"You can defeat, uncovers or end this cycle of reincarnation, as your goal you said before. But you cannot run from the reality. If this all have to do with you and your family, then what of her? That doesn't change the fact that she is also part of your friends that fought along side you."

"You're right..."

"If that so, You really have to start to think about that. Be ready for the worst, not like I'm saying it'll be a bad thing happening in future, But is save enough to consider your next move."

Takaya stunned by her words, warning him about the possibilities that would happened.

"When the time comes, I will not lay my but just sitting and watching. I will help you."

Saega walks forward passing Takaya. He surprised by her statement.

"Saega.."

"You are helping me with my problems, and so am I."
