Arc 6.03

  -Break-

  Heading off to the shore, thanks to Willow the 2nd we are going to make it there in no time at all. It seems Maple used her lega Willow the 2nd, so he is moving at an accelerated speed. Willow the 2nd also seems to have regained some of his size, I guess all that rest and sleeping helped him heal a lot.

  Oopiaple. Willow asks, “You know the mark under her right eye.”

  I believe Willow is talking about the shape I saear under her right eye, “Yeah what about it.”

  “Well it has taken shape more and more while you guys were gone, and now it looks like this: ??.” Willow says as he shapes the symbol in some snow I create. “Do you have any idea what it could be.”

  It is possible it could be a soul marker, but it is under her eye not on it. “Sorry I don’t. But if I had any idea, it is some form of physical trait like how my body is resistant to cold.”

  “I guess that is all it is.”

  “O-O-Orb it looks like we are at the sea,” Cyrus says to me.

  Staring at Willow, I see he has a big smile on his face then he says, “Wow this is the sea.”

  Oh, I guess this is his first time seeing any rge body of water, “Wait is this the reason you really wao e here.”

  “Mostly yes.”

  I would say something back, but he looks so happy now that it would just be mean to say anything to him at this point. So, after Willow takes time to admire the sea we all jump off of Willow the 2nd.

  “Hey Atanta, it is time for you to go now.”

  “I refuse.”

  “What do you mean.”

  “I ’t just leave my little angel, we have bonded.”

  “I am sorry, but you have to.”

  Willow chimed in and asks, “ you please take her.”

  “You too Willow.”

  “She really just wants to be doing something, so I think bringing her along won’t be that much of a bother. She even has her bow with her, so fighting is something she also help with.”

  “But.”

  ing closer to me she says “ I even speak all three songs so I will be helpful.”

  Well, Cyrus and Suzuka only speak the Saviour's song so that will be helpful. No Orb be steadfast. “I am sorry, but my answer is.”

  “You wao e don’t you Suzuka.”

  “I would enjoy that sissy.”

  Sissy you guys haven’t even known each other for a day.

  Grabbing Cyrus, she says “You wao e along don’t you Cyrus.”

  He starts panig due to being in close proximity to her “I-I-I-I, d-d-don’t mi-i-i-ind.”

  “Cyrus you traitor.”

  “You hear that Orb, it is four to one, now you have to take her off our hands.”

  “Fine,” I say defeated.

  Atanta jumps with joy with Cyrus and Suzuka. As they do this I walk over to Sparrow and knock him out; “Willow I don’t want this idiot causing trouble while we are in elpída, so please take him back with you.”

  “But won’t it be harder without him around?”

  “He has never been to elpída either, so it really doesn’t matter if he is with us or not, and I already got the dires from him.”

  “Ok gotcha. See you ter Orb.”

  “See you Willow,” and with the wind, Willow leaves as we get on the boat.

  Setting sail I tell everyone our mission pn. “Acc to Sparrow, the entrao Elpída is right iweeerrafide aita. He told me if we keep heading straight, we will definitely reach there.”

  “How will we know whe there if Sparrow isn’t here.”

  “He told me that it is basically unmissable as long as we get close. So, we will just keep heading straight forward from the shore, and sihis ship is se it will just adjust itself for us if the waves move us too far away.”

  “Why are we even going there Orb,” Suzuka asks.

  “To find clues about Cyrus’s sister.”

  “His sister?”

  “Oh yeah, we never really brought this up with you.”

  “Cyrus is looking for his older sister,” Atanta says.

  “She has been missing for over a decade, and we might be able to find a hint of her location on Elpída.”

  Suzuka says to Cyrus, “Do you miss her.”

  “Lots,” he says with a dispirited expression.

  Suzuka gets up and walks over to Cyrus, then sticks out her hand waiting for a fist bump and says “Then I will try my hardest to find her. I read minds so whatever information you need is yours.”

  “B-B-But doesn’t doing that hurt your head.”

  “It is just a little pain to give you a lot of happiness, it sounds worth it to me, so respond to my gesture cause my arm is cramping,” Cyrus replies to her fist bump.

  “Hey Cyrus, now that we are oopic of your sister, could you be able to tell me the reasons you’re here since dragons have historically never really left their ti.”

  Cyrus goes silent with a sad expression on his face.

  “Sorry f, but it is just that everything we know help in the iigation, but if you're not ready it is ok.”

  “No y-y-yht. You see dragons n-n-never, get sick or caty disease, it is almost impossible. In the history onkind, o-o-o-only four dragons have ever gotten sick, and I am the fourth.”

  “Isn’t that impossible,” Suzuka asks?

  “Not really it just means that their immune systems are s they simply destroy whatever eheir bodies.”

  Cyrus tinues and says, “D-D-Due to this, we dragons have no form of medical sce, so wheches a-a-a-a illness, of any kin-n-n-nd, they are simply left to die. But my s-s-sister, didn’t want to let me die so she took me here to f-f-find a cure.”

  Cyrus freezes up for a bit when trying to talk about what happened , as if the words are hard to get out, so I say, “Let me guess, you guys were tricked upoering Terrafide and that’s how you ended up in your current predit.”

  Cyrus nods his head in agreement. Atanta says, “But you seem fine now.”

  “Mother, I mean Man was able to find a cure for me, after she b-b-bought me. She was the human, I had m-m-met up, until that point.”

  “Don’t think about her any more you have us now,” Atanta says. “But to how foolish dragons are, that they would have no form of medical sce even in emergencies, you’d think they would have stolen it from humans.”

  “Well if no one ever got sick why would they bother, sounds like a waste of time, and with them being a first cycle civilisation, they would be a lot more traditional than we would be.”

  “First cycle?” They all say in unison.

  “Wait do you three really not know about the Cycles.”

  “Not a clue.”

  “N-N-No”

  “Not even a vague idea.”

  “Well the me expin. History be ruffly broken up into three cycles: The first, the sed, and the third our current ohe third one has just been going on for over two thousand years now. Details about the first and sed cycle are mostly lost.”

  “Lost?” Suzuka says.

  “Yes, most of the things from that time have beeroyed, or are hiddeo a tless number of reasons. Though we do have much more information from the sed than the first. Since around the end of the sed cycle, bookkeeping was done a lot better and lots of tries founded around that time have stood the test of time, Seirei is an example of that.”

  “I had no idea that where I was from was that old,” Suzaku says.

  “Don’t worry there are a lot more than you’d think most of the current major operating tries were fou the end of the sed cycle, with a few exceptions and that would be the dragon nation of Nirvana. It is the oldest civilisation to my knowledge and dates back to the first cycle.”

  “Isn’t that amazing Cyrus,” Atanta says

  “I d-d-didn’t know that.”

  “Well of course you wouldn’t, dragons rarely i with humans, and the cycles are broken up due to major happenings on all the other tis they would have no meaning tons since you guys rarely i with humans. I am even sure it must be some kind of rule”

  “T-T-There are very strict rules about h-h-humans or anything they ha-a-a-ave made being brought to our nd. I will probably be put under intense scrutiny if I return.”

  “Well yetting ahead of yourself Cyrus, first let's get you back to your sister then we start thinking about that.”

  “Orb,” he says surprised.

  “And if they don’t let you guys back peacefully you just e to live with me, in fact, that sounds like the more appealing option to me.”

  “Thank you Orb., Cyrus says.

  Atanta then walks over to Cyrus, gives him a big hug and says, “Don’t worry Cyrus I will be y sister until we find your real one, so don’t be bothered.”

  Cyrus starts freaking out and I say, “Atanta stop b him.”

  “Don’t be jealous Orb, I will also be y sister as well.”

  “If that happened, I would genuinely stab myself.”

  “You know, you being mean really hurts.”

  “Sissy is right Orb, you have nht to be that mean.”

  “You too Suzuka, traitor.”

  Giving her a hug she says, “That is just the bond us sisters have.”

  “Sister,” Suzuka says with a creepy expression while ughing a little bit. It seems that all this affe has finally destroyed her brain.

  I really ’t hahat woman, when she is around everythis chaotic.

  Letting go of Suzuka, she says, “Since we are talking about each other, would you guys tell me what this Suzuka is doing here. Also she is a legacy I swear do you have some kind of gravitational pull that attracts legacies.”

  “If I had such a power I would be freaked out.” Looking over at Suzuka I ask her “Are you ok with me telling her?”

  She nods then hides behind Cyrus embarrassed. “That’s all the permission we need so let me start.”

  -Break-

  As Atanta tio cry I say, “Please you quiet down.”

  “But how I, Suzuka's story is so sad, don’t worry from now on I will give you all the love you need,” She says hugging Suzuka. “I love you so much Suzuka.” Aremely creepy smile appears on Suzuka’s fa respoo this.

  Though as they both hug each other Atanta jumps with joy while I begin to look away, suddenly I hear them both scream, so I turn around I see they have started floating in the air.

  I jump and grab onto them both of them, thee lots of ice to freeze us to the floor as I pull them both down. “What the hell was that.”

  “I don’t know we just started floating.”

  Then I hear Cyrus say, “L-L-Look over there.”

  Starring in the distance, we see an isnd, but around the isnd, tless objects are floating in the air. Sparrow said we wouldn’t miss it whe there, so I guess that must be our destination. “LET'S GO FULL SPEED AHEAD.”

  Responding to my words the ship moves at full speed.
