A New Beginning...

[Deleted]

Mitsuko watched over Suzuna and watched the interaction between the two girls very carefully. The angel looked over at her friend Zeph and these two adults were now like mediators to make sure things don’t get out of hand. The angel knew that Suzuna was a very gentle girl so she wouldn’t do anything harmful to another person, however the angel provided that encouraging voice to her. Once she saw Suzuna get knocked to the ground, the angel picked her back up gently and nodded her head.

“Stand up Suzuna. Don’t be scared it’s going to be alright. I won’t let anything happen to you, neither will Zephel. We are both right here for the two of you. Think of this situation like any other. When one situation knocks you off your feet you get back up again. Neither of you are alone either, dig deep and find the courage within yourself. No one said facing situations was going to be easy but you have support.”

The angel smiled at Suzuna gently, moved some hair away from her face and gave her a hug. After that the angel stood beside Zeph. He hasn’t changed much, the last time they saw each other was a year ago on her anniversary. The angel felt bad that she always shows up in Zeph’s presence when something big was about to happen, and she hoped that he didn’t feel like he was being ignored by her, it’s just that her life kept getting busier and busier ever since she had a loving man in her life. She placed a hand on Zeph’s shoulder and greeted him properly this time.

“I’m glad to see that you are still doing well Zeph. I’m sorry that it seems like I only show up around you when something big is going to happen, I want to apologize for that. Please give Orphion a hug for me, or with your permission sometime I can go greet him?

He was always so polite to me. Right now though, we will have to be a team for those two young ladies. The one with the purple hair is Suzuna, I have been taking care of her since I met her. She’s on a journey you see to find someone of her past, and I offered to help. I couldn’t just leave her by herself.”

As Mitsuko spoke, it almost seemed like the angel grew in maturity. Her life had changed in more ways than one, so it was only natural for her to grow a lot with that change. She was glad to see Zeph again though.

The angel sensed that Suzuna had a connection with the girl in front of her, something in her instinct told her so.

[Alessa]

Alessa was still in shocked in what just happened. With eyes widened as she see Lilith glow with light. She felt her magic, and she sensed that she is not an ordinary sorcerer. She knows that she had done something wrong. Trying to think of words to apologize and to explain things, she stutter as she hears Lilith's treat to kill her. Thou she heard that Lilith wants some explanation, she doubts if she can give one that Lilith wants to hear. Panicking in what to do, she quickly grab her necklace as she prepares to defend herself if anything might happened.

"I-I..." she tries to speak but out of words. Her hand shivers as she grips her necklace. She never heard any death threats before. She don't know what to do and what to answer. Even how to react. As she tries to figure out some ways, Zephel suddenly rushed towards Lilith and tries to calm her down. As Zephel's tries to calm Lilith down, so does Mitsuko who also tries to comfort Alessa. Alessa felt calmed a bit after the gentle words of Mitsuko and tries to put herself back together. Her hand still shiver while holding her necklace as she hears Mitsuko's introduction of Zephel to her.

She bows her heads to Zephel as her sign in greetings as she still can't say a word now. She felt a bit relief that Zephel is a good guy and even try to help her even that he still din't get to know her. Summoning her courage to speak, she then apologies sincerely to Zephel and tries to explain.

"I-I.. I'm very sorry in what just happened. I... I don't know what has got into me." she bows again to Zephel before slowly trying to face Lilith with hesitation. "I... I..." she stops. Her expression slowly changes as she looks at Lilith's face. Before she able to continue, she is suddenly struck by piercing pain inside her head. Holding her head with one of her hand, she tries to not shriek in pain. The pain is too much wich almost causing Alessa to almost lose her balance. She somehow has a flash back of hers, about the thing that the boy she once love said. With the pain suddenly subside quickly as it strikes, she slowly look at Lilith's face again. With tear started to flow from her eyes, she asked.

"Have we ever met before?"

[Lilith ArchLight]

Despite all the intimidating and threat Lilith shows, she actually felt more fear rather than feeling angry. Her hand trembles after she cast her spell on Alessa. Lilith's tries to act all bold and arrogant in front of any human, but the truth is... she actually fear human the most. She realizes this, that is why she needs to find some way to help her in dealing with her fear. Noticing that Alessa started to make some moves, she quickly readies her hand into her cloth to get her gun. Before she could make any moves, Zephel suddenly rush onto her and asked her to calmed down.

"H-How can I calm down!? She dare tries to touch me!" confused, angry and shocked, her hand trembles inside her pocket where she holds the gun."This is bad... after showing the past to Zephel, my emotions aren't stable enough" Lilith thought. She understand what Zephel's tries to tell her. Still disoriented, Lilith tries her best to listen to Zephel's advice. She notice about the girl that Zephel's know, the one name Mitsuko, tries to help the unknown girl that tries to touch her. Nodding a bit, she take out her hand from her cloths and prepares to hear her explanation. At first she listened to her apologize calmly, then when she expected to hear some explanation, she din't. She was a bit startled when Alessa suddenly make a low painful voice and her irrational movement all of the sudden. Before she could say anything, she has been asked by Alessa.

"W-what?" Lilith state. "What do you mean by that? I don't remember you, how could you think that we ever met before?" getting curious and impatience, Lilith questioned Alessa back. She tries to find any memory of hers before, could it be she met her on the Outlaw's hideout? Or somewhere else. Its hard for her because she can't recognize someone just by voices alone in a short time if she does met someone, specially before she gets her powers.

"Before answering any of those, why did you try to touch me!?" Lilith asked in higher tone. She is getting impatience. What is with this girl? Why she suddenly try to do some odd thing and then suddenly ask such doubtful question?. She never realize that Alessa's tear started to drop, and when she realize that, she paused herself and stutter. She don't know what else to say anymore.

[Zephel]

Zephel was never the type to mediate people, he's more like an easily-angered brute than the peacemaker. Though, in this situation, he forced himself to act the part, because he had seen with his own eyes what this little girl had gone through and there is no way he will allow her to get too overwhelmed with her emotions.

Mitsuko's appearance along with this young lady he doesn't recognize is in a bit of a bad timing, only because Lilith had just opened up to him, thus she's emotionally quite vulnerable now. Thankfully, despite her shock, Lilith is mature enough to listen.

As Zephel heaved off a sigh of relief, Mitsuko approached him. He turned to face her as she took hold of his shoulder, seeing her instantly apologizing to him. "Ah, no, this isn't even your fault, Mitsuko." He immediately responded, and quickly told her about the little girl he's with. "This is Lilith, I just..met her here." Despite his anxiousness, a tiny smile curved up his lips though when she mentioned of Orphion, and Zephel only responded with a nod.

He's far too worried of Lilith's condition right now to focus properly on the pleasantries. When Mitsuko told him the name of the girl that bothered Lilith, Zephel turned to look at the purple-haired young woman.

Suzuna, that's her name, Zephel reminded himself, bowed her head to him despite her obviously troubled state, before apologizing to him. "The person you should be apologizing to is not me, it's her." Gesturing his head towards Lilith's general direction, he then motioned Suzuna to Lilith in an almost encouraging way.

When Suzuna suddenly seemed like she had a headache and then asked Lilith if they've met, Zephel's eyes widened in surprise. He turned to look at Lilith, and as he expected, the little girl doesn't recognize. How can she when she's blind?

"Suzuna.." Zephel quietly calls her as he placed a hand on her shoulder, before whispering silently so only she could hear him. "This girl is blind.. She may not recognize you by voice alone.." Better to explain to her than letting her annoy Lilith more and more. This girl's stance doesn't seemed to be at all balanced, he's actually worried if she might fall off her feet any second now.

With her obviously weak posture now, Zephel is sure Mitsuko would come around any time now to comfort the girl, so Zephel looked back at Lilith, he made his way towards the child. Perhaps trying to offer his insight calmly towards Lilith would ease her a bit.

"Lilith, that girl claimed that she might have recognized you, which is possibly why she touched you... Calm down, no one is out to get you, I won't allow that." After saying so, Zephel stood back so they could solve this on their own, he just hopes that Suzuna is well enough to settle this.

[Deleted]

In truth no one was at fault here, Mitsuko who can read another’s energy and being a person that is so in tune with a person’s emotions could clearly see that Lillith is vulnerable, but at the same time so is Suzuna. Suzuna is such a sweet little girl that Mitsuko will go out of her way to protect her, and at the same time Suzuna and Lillith had to slowly break the ice between them. The angel soon left Zeph’s side and went behind Suzuna and held her gently.

As the angel held the little girl she spoke to the both of them and she has this motherly tone to her that could easily comfort anyone, as long as they kept their heart open to her words. “Think of today as a start for the two of you to break the ice a little bit yes? I understand that the both of you will have to do this at your own pace.. but being hostile is not going to help matters. Suzuna means no harm to you Lillith I promise you that, since for the last few months I have been looking after her.”

The angel then turned to Suzuna. “And Suzuna, Lillith is vulnerable just like you right now, so be as gentle and careful with your words as you can be okay? While you start to slowly explain things to her don’t be afraid of a little silence. A little silence isn’t a bad thing it just means you are thinking about what to say before you say it.”

“I realize this is a lot for the two of you to handle but you both are strong. I am sure you can put the hostilities aside and communicate to the best of your abilities. Zeph and I will not allow you both to fall; in fact we are here to soften it if you do fall down emotionally. You can work this out, I believe in the both of you.

Remember what you said to me before Suzuna that you loved me? Well allow me to say this to you. I love you too very much, so no matter if you fall down emotionally I will catch you.”

Mitsuko will catch anyone in trouble, even dear Lillith here. If Lillith and Suzuna start to break down, she would hug the both of them in a heartbeat, even though there maybe a risk of Lillith pushing her away due to how vulnerable she is right now.

She then whispered to the both of them in her gentle tone that she has: “I know what it’s like to be vulnerable myself, and it’s so tempting to put up a wall and keep people out, but if we do that then we never get to know anyone. If you open your hearts up slowly but surely then I know you will have some peace.. Not just within yourselves.. but towards each other..”

The angel stepped back to allow both girls time to talk things out but offered her encouragement. “We’re right here, now see if you can give communicating a shot, just remember that the both of you are not alone.” The angel said with a smile. She prays that this will work out for both Suzuna and Lillith.[/font]

[Alessa]

Still having the headache, Alessa tries her best in keeping her balance while as she tries cover hear teary eyes. She clearly see how unpleasant Lilith felt. She is not being herself. She can't even explained why she have this nostalgic feelings. Why she is having memory flash back right now? What is more weird, is that she received flash back of memories that she din't even remember before. She flinched a bit when Zephel touched her shoulder and tell her that Lilith is blind. She able to not freak out as Mitsuko is there to watch her and Zephel is a friend of Mitsuko so he can be trusted. Nodding slightly as her reply to Zephel, she brave herself to confront Lilith.

As she tries to answer Lilith's questioned, she struck with another headache, this time is more severe. The pain was so intense, until it triggers her magic power to be a bit out of control. Sparks of electrics started to build up around Alessa as she cries out in pain. In that pain, she saw a 'vision'. Rather, she see what had happened before. A memory that she thought she never even had it.

Years before the attack of the Villages

"Do you understand now Alessa?" said Neil. "The little girl's picture that resides in your locket is you're little sister, you're only actual relatives that lives now," he continues. Alessa was shocked to hear it from Neil. "My....sister...? My little sister? My only living relatives?" she asked doubtfully. "Are you telling me the family that I have now is not real? Why? They never even tell me anything, they say I am their only daughter!" stated Alessa with a bit of angry tone. "Are you telling me the life I have all this time is a lie? Then what about this girl that supposed to be my little sister? Why she is not here?"

Alessa demands explanation from Neil. She still can't fully accept the truth about it. With a sigh of frustration, Neil answered "You two were adopted when you both were very young. Someone dropped you two in this village to be taken care of. Thou Mr & Mrs. Lexington sincerely agreed to take care both of you, the harassment and the threat by the outlaw are too great till the village decided to sold you little sister out. You were young that time. But still, I wonder why you can't even remember her. It is like your memory has been blocked. You even take a good care of her specially she is blind. This might related to -"

The flash back suddenly were cut off from Alessa's mind.

Back to reality

Stumbling to her knee and support her body from falling on the floor with her hands due to the pain, Alessa gasp for air after the headache finally disappeared. It makes sense now. She understand why she felt this way when she saw Lilith. She realize that even Lilith did not remember her. Even so, she will explain everything to her right now.

"The reason why I try to touch you... Because of the feeling of nostalgic. The longing feeling i felt when I saw you. This may sound sudden, but now I just.... remembered something that is important... Lilith... you are actually, my little sister in blood,"

[Lilith ArchLight]

Lilith calms down as Zephel assured her that he will protect her. She also feel a ease to hear gentle words from Mitsuko and also take her advice. Yes, she is no longer alone now. She wanted to change her life to be better, and she don't want to ruin it now. With that she awaits the answer from Alessa.

Out of the sudden, Alessa scream in pain. Lilith was shocked on what happened as Alessa suddenly let out her power. "She is not a normal human! To think that she is an elemental sorcerer... Who is she?" Lilith thought in her self. She prepare herself if anything might goes wrong. Din't took a while before Alessa regain back her powers. She did notice on how that sudden outbreak hurt Alessa. Despite how she hate her the first time, she still a bit worried of Alessa's condition. "A-are you ok?"

Afterwards, Alessa finally tell her the truth. Lilith was shocked, very shocked. She almost stumble back as there are some force pushing her back. For her to have a sister, she never even remember anything about her past rather than the time when she got caught nor she would ever thought to meet one suddenly. "T-t-th-thats.." she stutters. She is at lost of words. Confused and shocked, she felt very angry to know that from someone whom she just met and without any proof.

Quickly grabbing her gun from her cloth, she suddenly disappear from her spot and then quickly re-appear in front of Alessa and points her gun towards her. "Don't joke around!" Lilith state with angry tone as she grit her teeth with anger. "You just messed up the first place, now you are telling me that we are related? What proves you have!?" Lilith pulls the hammer of her gun as she finished her sentence.

She almost lose it. If she din't hear good explanation, she will pull the trigger. She were to shock to accept the fact.

(For you information, her gun is like a revolver. Example [ The 'hammer' indicates the upper trigger. Just in case ^^'' )

[Deleted]

When Mitsuko saw Suzuna crying out in pain she automatically went to her side and comforted her, and letting her know that everything was going to be okay but she had to take it easy, and not overwork herself. It hurt the angel’s heart to hear Suzuna crying out in pain, and because the angel was so in tune with what others felt Mitsuko felt both Suzuna’s emotional pain and physical pain.

Mitsuko heard Lillith finally voiced her concern towards Suzuna without the hostility and it seemed that there was a breakthrough being made between the two girls, just like the angel had prayed for. But then something in Lillith snapped that she had pulled out a gun and aimed it at Suzuna. The angel stepped in front of Suzuna to protect her from harm, just like she said she would do. Mitsuko would take the hit for Suzuna if Lillith did pull the trigger.

So here was this angel in front of Suzuna standing protectively in front of her. Mitsuko didn’t look scared. She looked peaceful, calm, and had a smile on her face. Her overall calm aura showed on her face and overall exterior. Not even her voice was broken. She felt good that she can protect Suzuna, almost like how a mother would protect her child, without hesitation.

“You don’t want to do something you will regret Lillith, Suzuna just explained herself calmly to you. Again she means no harm to you. You are merely acting out of shock. If you pull the trigger then there is no turning back, I would understand if you need to walk away in order to process the information she shared with you, bur I know that you don’t want to pull the trigger. If you did pull the trigger I will take the hit.”

The angel started to glow and blessed Suzuna with her angelic protection as she reasoned with Lillith.

“I heard how sweet you are Lillith by the way you voiced your concern towards Suzuna when she was crying in pain. This shows you have a heart, and a very strong one. I have a sister too and sisters are supposed to be there for each other, no matter what. Through thick and thin. She’s my adopted sister. She was once my friend from highschool but I adopted her into my life and she is my sister forever.”

“There is a magic in sisterhood… You don’t want to throw away that opportunity Lillith..” The angel was also afraid of guns, because one pull of the trigger can harm someone or even kill them. But even the angel herself used one now and again when it was needed. It can protect its users as long as it is used properly, and for the right reasons.[/font]

[Zephel]

Things are getting weirder and weirder by the second, but when weird things becomes worrisome, it does not go well. Zephel was so surprised to sense a difference in air pressure around Suzuna, and then he realized it's actually electric sparks.

At this, Zeph tries to keep Mitsuko away from Suzuna, touching her would electrocute the angel too. He honestly has no idea how to handle this kind of problem, but then Suzuna came through, seeming like she was stricken with a new realization.

Only then did Zephel allows Mitsuko to comfort the young girl. What came out of Suzuna's mouth surprised Zeph as he quickly turned his head to face Lilith now. 'Her reaction to this..might lean more on the defensive side--'

Just as he thought of that, Lilith suddenly exploded, pulling out a gun out of nowhere and aiming it in front towards Suzuna. "H-hey..!" This is why he does not allow himself to get overwhelmed with emotions, because the body would react violently in response to fear, anger and doubt.

"Lilith, how can she prove anything to you if you're going up and shoot her before she has the chance?" Zephel reasoned calmly, "The thing about human is, for them to connect and understand, listening is of utmost importance. Now please, Lilith, you don't need to use that gun.. ...okay..? It's difficult for her to explain properly with a barrel of a gun pointed to her.."

Mitsuko is already shielding Suzuna, as Zephel expected. Still, he wasn't generally worried if Lilith did shoot. The perks of being an element wielder is he has complete control of his surroundings, the winds especially. If for whatever reason, a bullet was shot, Zephel is able to deflect it off of its original course.

When Mitsuko began speaking to Lilith, Zephel made his way beside Lilith and knelt down, just staring at the little girl without a word. Sometimes he can read minds, now Zeph is just trying to attempt it, but to no avail due to his lack of practice.

Sighing, he just wanted to lower Lilith's gun slowly, but she had already made clear to him that she doesn't like people touching her or her things. Perhaps Mitsuko's words would calm the girl down.

[Alessa]

Alessa already predict of Lilith's actions. Obviously she will be shocked to hear this. Even with the gun pointed at her, she din't tremble in fear and nervous anymore. Instead, she only feel sad and sympathize Lilith, her only little sister. She do was surprised by Mitsuko's action in trying to protect her by standing in front of her. Mitsuko always helped her out, so this time she wanted to fix things up by herself without involving Mitsuko to endanger herself. Both Mitsuko and Zephel tries to calm Lilith's down as Lilith was really pissed by her last statements.

With courage and faith, she gently touch Mitsuko's shoulder and tell her that it will be alright as she walks besides Mitsuko to confront Lilith. "It is my fault that I do not have the strength to protect you in the past which ended up having you taken by the outlaw," Alessa starts to explain. "It must be hard for you to live in such kind of situation with the Outlaw. I don't know what happened there, but I can feel that you suffers a painful life during those time. I'm sorry," Alessa sincerely said it with a sad and low voice. "But, give me a one more chance to convince you. I miss you so much that I can no longer bear the pain in losing you again. That day, I failed to take you back from them... You might not remember it as you were young back then. I even forget this event probably due to my wound back then. But Lilith, I bet that... You never forget our symbol in relationship. 'When the moonlight shine at its brightest, the lake will reflect the true beauty of one soul'," Alessa ended it with a poem.

A symbol speech that had been handed from generation to generation. Alessa had been teach about this and she too had teach her this. There are continuation of the poem, and Alessa hope that Lilith will continues it while hoping that she finally accepted this fact that they are sister. She don't want to hurt her any longer, that is why she wanted to tell her quickly as possible.

[Lilith ArchLight]

Lilith still can't take that fact stated by Alessa as to her it is ridiculous. She never remember anything before she was taken by the outlaw. Also, she wonders why after all this years, now that she finally know this. She thought she was abandoned. Now when she rethink of it, does this mean this person who is her sister, Alessa sold her out too for the village? With anger and frustration, she grip in her gun so hard that her hand shakes due to the force of it. Out of the sudden, Mitsuko block her aim in order to protect Alessa. This only increases her anger which then makes her enhanced her gun with her power. Now her gun is glowing with light magic, she had focus the power of the gun to shoot the bullet as fast as speed of light.

"Get out of the way or you too will be pierced by light!" she demands Mitsuko to not block Alessa. When Mitsuko tries to reasons with her, Lilith only get angrier. "Shut up! Just Shut up!" she shout at Mitsuko. "That girl claimed to be my sister after all this year leaving me to suffer in that place... She too must be the part of the people that forsaken me! The human are nothing but only care for themselves! That's why they sold you out!" as she finished her sentences, she prepared to make the shot. Light energy started to focus on the point of the gun. "I said it again, step aside or die..." Lilith state it with serious tone. Now its Zephel's to reasons with her.

After she hears Zephel's explanation, Lilith started to feel anxious and doubt. She finally able to grasp back herself. Her hand that hold her gun now is shaking. "S-still... this girl... I can't forgive her." her word stutters as she tries to speak. "S-she-" as she wanted to continues, Alessa started to explain. Lilith's strength began to loosen as Alessa understand her situations. Whats more to that, the fact that Alessa did tried to stop the outlaw from taking her shaken her. Is it true? Was she speaking the truth? Suddenly, Alessa started a poem. Lilith were shock to hear that. Summoning all her strength, she replied the poem. " 'So we shall sing for the goddess of the moon, to give us her protection and everlasting blessing' " as Lilith finish replying the poem. Tears started to flow on Lilith's cheek.

Its is the truth now, Alessa is her sister. "T-to think... that... I ... " Lilith's suddenly lose her focus which then ended up the magic flows on her gun. Her knees suddenly gives away which makes her sit down on her knees. She dropped her gun as she no longer had the strength to hold it. "I...I" Lilith can't speak another word... she is struck hard by the truth. She don't know what to feel whether happy or sad. She is in shocked state. She tried to hold her tears and her voice as she began to cry. "Is this... a dream? or a lie? or an illusion...? I... I don't know anymore..." she then looks up as she is facing Alessa's face. "T-then, is your full name is... Suzuna Alessa?".

Alessa nod on her question. With her answer given, she can no longer hold her tears. "S-sister... you are alive,"

[Zephel]

Despite himself, as soon as Alessa stepped up from behind Mitsuko and began to speak clearly and calmly to Lilith, Zephel released a breath he never knew he was holding. He was indeed worried if Alessa was too shaken up to explain properly, but seeing and hearing the young lady beginning to shake Lilith's perception of what happened between them brings a sort of relief to Zephel.

'See.. Now the truth is one step closer, like you wanted.' He turned to look at Lilith next once Alessa finishes with a sort of strange poem. Zeph doesn't quite understand how that will help, but perhaps it triggered something inside Lilith by how her expression looked.

To hear Lilith actually responding to the poem, widened Zephel's eyes. He still doesn't understand what's up with that, but he can at least tell the bond between the two girls are slowly beginning to heal. Since he's still crouching on one knee beside Lilith, the blind girl's sudden weakened fall startled Zephel.

His arms automatically reached out around her to break her fall, but then he noticed she simply lets herself loose to sit on her knees, so he dropped his arms very slowly, concern written all over his face. Lilith is obviously in shock of something, but that's the step that everyone has to face when handling the truth.

Zephel backed away from her when she raised her face to look at Alessa, now tearing up like a normal little girl for once. It's done now. The crisis has been averted. He released a slow sigh of relief, and a small smile climbed up his lips. "I know how that feels like.."

He said to particularly no one. "Knowing that you belong in a family all of a sudden." Standing up to his full height now, he gives way for Alessa to comfort Lilith, and vice versa. "Well. That settles it." Resting his hands on his hips, Zephel sighed as he turned to Mitsuko.

"Good job in pacifying them."

[Deleted]

Mitsuko watched the girls tearful reunion, and she smiled. Suzuna finally found whom she was searching for, and she hoped with all of her heart that these two girls can heal and make up for lost time. Suzuna was no longer alone anymore. Mitsuko still remembers the day that she had met her and Suzuna was alone with no place to go, and now the little girl that Mitsuko had grown to love and care for has found her family.

This was the ending of one chapter but the beginning of a new one. The angel then remembered Suzuna’s locket, and perhaps Suzuna could show this to Lillith when they were alone and catching up with each other.

“Suzuna, don’t forget your locket okay? The locket was the key to finding your sister, and now you have finally found her. Spend time with her, love her unconditionally and take your time to get to know each other too. You were never alone to begin with Suzuna, and you have one of the world’s greatest blessing. Family.”

Mitsuko had this gentle heavenly glow to her and she placed a hand on Suzuna’s shoulder, and her touch was always so soft.

“It has been such a joy to be on this journey with you Suzuna and I am glad you found your sister. Finding a lost loved one is never easy, but you dear have a great strength that has helped you to keep going. You are one strong girl, and I am looking forward in seeing the woman you become.”

The angel then spoke with Zeph for a while and smiled once he complimented her.

“A person’s life journey is never an easy one Zeph, and we can experience many emotions on our journey, such as happiness, joy, anger, sadness… But we are never alone. Even though there are times in which we feel like we are alone, we aren’t. We angels exist to encourage love and to love others unconditionally, as well as to heal. I am happy that Suzuna and Lillith have found each other. And I am glad to watch over everyone. It’s no trouble at all.”

Mitsuko then looked at the two girls with her gentle blue eyes and smiled.

’ good luck Suzuna, I will always be here whenever you need me.

Since the angel is also known for her love of flowers, she used her power to make a few flower petals appear in her palm of her hand, and she gently blew it towards the two girls as they had their tearful reunion.

Flowers were also common gifts that an angel gives to others, and Mitsuko did give her gift of flowers in the form of petals that were carried by the wind, in order to make the moment between the two sisters much softer and sweeter.

[Flower petals in the wind~]

[Alessa]

Alessa also can't hide her tears as she finally explained everything to Lilith. Watching her long lost little sister crying pains her too much till she can't hold it. She realizes how much pain does Lilith suffers all those years in that outlaw's hideout. She can't blame Lilith's current personality due to her past but also blame herself for not be able to take care of her. Alessa look at the silver-haired man that has been with Lilith with a much grateful eyes. She really can't thank him much for being with Lilith even just for a while. As Alessa manage to look Zephel in the eye, she can only bow gracefully as her thanks without a word as she really can't say anything right now. She heard what Zephel's said bout suddenly being inside of a family, Alessa smiles at him. "P-perhaps Zephel-kun can be part of our family? Lilith seems to be attached to you already,"she stutters as she is still wiping her tears as she tries to put herself back together.

As Mitsuko with her gentle and warm advice, Alessa give her a hug as she thank her with a kiss on her cheek. Alessa also felt grateful for everything that Mitsuko have helped her with all this time. "I will not forget it nor will I ever forget about you Mitsuko-san,"she shed a tear a joy. As Mitsuko gently touch her shoulder, Alessa hold that hand with much care the best she can. "Thank you again, Mitsuko-san~ I think I really can't stop saying that," she nods as she smiles before slowly walks her ways to Lilith who is still sitting on the floor.

As she reaches her, she immediately get into her knees before hugging Lilith gently as she caress her head. "I'm sorry for taking so long to find you back... I-I hope you can f-forgive me L-Lilith... I really can't lose you anymore, nor wanted to be hated by you.. b-but I still love you so much that I miss you,"she tried her best to hold her tear when she finally able to hug her only little sister in this world. "T-this time, I promise I will protect you with all the strength I could spare... So I will never ever lose you again, Lilith,"she hold both of Lilith shoulder as she face Lilith. She know that she is blind, but she really want to convince her that She will never leave her ever again. With the flower petals started to gently flows with the wind created by Mitsuko, Alessa feel much better as she wipes her tear before having her confident look back. "Let us have our on life and adventure together, right? Lilith~"she smiles

[Lilith ArchLight]

Lilith was convinced that her only relative where murdered during the last raid on their village. During the time she unlocked her power, she already set her mind that she was alone in the cruel world. It took her lot of effort to get herself back together and train herself to be better person and tries to actually cure her deep hatred toward humans. Suddenly, after meeting someone who gladly will help her in curing her hatred, she was lucky enough to even get to know that her only sister is alive and now even get to meet her. Still in the state of shock, Lilith can only lay sitten on her knees. Losing her focus to her surrounding, she can only wheeping as she cries like a little girl she is.

She then noticed that Alessa is approaching her, she startled as she fears that she might react by attacking her again. She wanted to tell her that but can only mutters it as he strength is so weak to even speak right. Her eyes widen as Alessa hugged her. She got more shock than ever. She thought she will push her away, but instead she got more calm and relax under her warm embrace. She was confused why she din't retaliate. As she felt calmer, she then understand why. She longed for this. She longed for being caress, being loved, and being spoiled. She was a kid before who din't get the chance to experience it. Slowly and reluctantly, she can only grip both of her hand on Alessa's shoulder before burries her face on it and start to burst to tear. She wanted to forgive Alessa and even apologize for before, but she couldn't control her tears good enough to even say it. She instead stutters and mumbling her own words which can't even be understandable.

As the warm wind with flower petals blows to both Lilith and Alessa. She felt more calmer to be able to say something. "I...I forgive you....sister," she finally able to said that as she inhale before continuing as she wipe her tears with one of her hand. "I too apologize...f-for being rude back then... I-I'm happy that something that was supposed to be a dream, became possible..." she then faces to look at Zephel as she smiles cheerfully. "I guess what Zephel said, miracle might happened anytime it want to be," then her eyes glow to initiate her magic as she summon her conjured light word to appear in front of Zephel to state 'Thank you very much Zephel. I owe you one' and another in front of Mitsuko stating 'I'm sorry for being harsh back then... I want to thank you for bringing my sister back to me...Thank you' her eye stop glowing which thus ended the magic as the magic word started to disappear slowly. Alessa who then grab Lilith's shoulder with new re-found hope and dreams proposed her to live together and have adventure together. She happily nod and say 'yes'
