CHAPTER 24-MISSION

A L E X

She sat down while arranging the stones in circle and put those sticks together and lit up a fire and other are setting a tent so we can rest since the moon are almost on it highest peak and it beautiful, its full moon tonight. The stars are like millions of glitters that spread across the universe.

I narrowed my eyes back to Luna Quartz. The wind whipped her brunette hair into her eyes. Our eyes met by accident and my heart leapt into my throat, nearly choking me with panic. Lokarets talaga siya nakakapangilabot!!

Her stubborness nature set me off. I keep on following her every step of the way and she didn't mind me like I wasn't even there. Like I'm just a ghost. Invisible.

I heard the crunches of the leaves on my feet and she look back and give me goosebumps by those aversion on her facial expressions. We were about one miles away from her. The lunarian is here to help even if it was against them.

The captived fairies said that there are still fairies left behind on that ship they said all of them are put on a different box and still few of them made it out. That's why we need to go to North Andalia to save them before it's too late. The Empress commanded forces to North Andalia but I stand and stop them from doing it. They can cause an alarm threat to human and they can use it against them and put all fairy race into their grave. So I decided to find them with Luna Crest and even the prince himself joined us. Little by little maybe they'll realize that I have no bad intention on their existence. I want peace of mind and also I wanna live!

Walang magawa ang Empress dahil kagustuhan ng anak niya iyon at inatasang isama ang mga lunarian.

But this one is pretty stubborn and wants to do the job alone. She's not being a hero but rather sacrifice herself burn alive in the sun. I can't let her them go there without my guidance, since I was the one who made this story to life and a princess who soon will be a Queen to rule the land and protect both species to co-exist. It may seems stupid or impossible but I know the future will be brighter.

"Why are you keep following me princess!" She said with a hint of disgust on her tone, like spitting on my name. "Don't trynna be a hero"

"Look whose talking. I'm here to help"

She scoff at me "Help? Pag sure. Alam mo kase Esthelian.."

"Address her well. You have no rights in speaking her name.." I stop Luna Crest and hold his hand and pull him back to his seat and turn my gaze back to Luna Quartz whose offended.

"I'll follow you whether you like it or not. We have the same goals.."

"No your not. You damn ass. I've been far away from home just to avoid some incompetent soul! And yet still following me! Why can't you just go back and order some of your forces to invade us like you always do. Spreading lies like we're criminals and yet you didn't even look at yourselves.."

"Luna Quartz respect her grac.."

"I don't care even she's a princess Luna Ziegler. Those blood on her veins marks the death of our people!"

I rose on my sit and speak my heart out. Di naman ako naiirita pero ang tigas ng ulo niya sabayan pa ng kanyang pride "I can't just sit there and do nothing while this chaos is around I came here and talk with your Empress to help me"

"Human are indeed a manipulator, they control the minds of my race. Even the Empress lost on her senses. Geez didn't imagine we'll die sooner or later.." she sighed helplessly and put a stick on the fire.

"Then believe what you want to believe. Spread those gossips about me. I made my mind that I'm going with you to save the fairies. This is my mission nothing more"

"Nah..." she lie down while putting her hands behind her head, looking at the stars. "Enough of your lousy imagination"

"Luna Quartz!" Luna Vanessa bellowed

"Sooner or later that princess will turns her back on you, you'll see"

I sighed heavily while looking at her. Napakati nalang ako sa ulo. Base sa sulat ko back then. I arrived on North Andalia together with the captived fairies seals inside the box. Some of the fairies will be use as a weapon against their kingdom. Many of their races are held and became the henchman and they will be call as Erebus a mark of betrayal and under the command of men. The power of the houses of many fairies will be nothing and soon human will put them to slavery.

I crossed my legs and put my arms so I can rest my chin on my palm. Those stupid imagination I had put me in this mess. Like a villainess became a heroin in a story. Hayss

Someone put a warm thick jacket on me and I leaned and he handed me a smoke fish on a stick. "Thank you Luna Crest" I didn't hesitate and took a bite. Andito kame sa kalagitnaan ng gubat na nagcacamp. Si Luna Quartz lang ang medyo malayo samin at inabutan na siya ng pagkain nung isa.

It's four days more I assured they already arrived, and those loads will be on the way to the palace.

We aboard the ship, it's the same ship that was used to attacked the ship of lord Francois that night. I surveyed it from top to bottom and by the looks of it, it's a battleship that was use only by Naviex. The weapons inside are way advance than the weapons of any men. So this is the main reason na kaya di nasasalakay Ang Zendalia dahil sa dagat palang talo na sila at napaka bilis nito.

Windsor was the Kingdom who known to produced gun powder and any advance weapon in the near future and now will be ties be with North Andalia, the battle is destructive. And I won't let that happen.

In my novel I've gone to North Andalia and meet the people who soon will be the end of the existence of fairies. And yet, I thought I might change the plot, but still the other captived are still on that ship.

Maybe the Lord Francois knew already about my disappearance. Siguro nabalita na iyon sa palasyo.

In my novel I went to that ball. Now I won't show myself to the public. Kailangan ko na siguro magtago in order to save the other fairies. And by that I'll start with my hair.

"Luna Crest"

"Yes dwarf"

"Dwarf? Ikaw talagang engkanto ka bigay mo nga sakin Ang espadang iyan"

"Para saan?"

"Wag ka nang maraming tanong!"

"Ito oh shess" he handed me this dagger. I roll my eyes and take it and untie my hair "Wag mong sabihin patayin mo sarili mo?"

"Oo" Sabi ko at umalis.

"Oh that sounds good"

"Hmp!" Lumayo ako sa kanya at pumunta sa taas ng poop deck habang andun si Luna Ziegler sa helm. I cut my hair short. Sayang kase napakahaba niya at golden pero kailangan kong magtago.

"Pantay ba ang pagkaputol ko?" Tanong ko kay Luna Ziegler na kinalimgon Niya at nabigla naman siya sakin.

"Crest Val tingnan mo ang kalokohang nv ginawa ng prinsesa mo!" Sumbong niya at lumukso bigla si Luna Crest sa taas na nakapatong sa bannister at hindi ko nagustuhan ang tingin niya.

Pinikot niya bigla ang ilong ko. Pinalo kolang ang kamay niya at namula na parang kamatis ang ilong ko at ang hapdi. Pero humupa iyon ng makita ko si Luna Quartz na inaayos Ang botones niya na parang kakatapos lang maligo bumaba na ako at lagi niya akong iniiwasan.

LUNA QUARTZ

Seeing her is a catastrophe. Only if I had the power to kill this bitch with me. But I had no choice because I serve my Empress and those commands before I left the palace was against my will. But still if this mission is done. Then I'll commit a crime I don't care if I rot in the big house.

"Luna Quartz" tawag ni ate Luna Vane sakin at lumapit ako. May hawak siyang mga scroll ang ilan pa duon ay mga mapa ng buong Gaivera. She place the map on the table and put on pin on each side. "Call her highness.."

"Not in a million years"

"Yan tigas ng ulo mo ang hindi makakatulong satin"

"But.."

"Sister syrinx said that she is our only choice to save those fairies before being trade away"

I sighed heavily and scratch my head. I turn my shoulder and saw the princess having a good time with everyone. She's such a witch and even the prince get seduced by her charmed. I need to be cautious. "Hey nitwit big sister wants to talk to ya" I shouted with a bored on my tone and she rush down the stairs immediately.

"Yes? What can I help you?" She spoke solemnly and I walk sideway, away from her cause she's too close.

"Bat napatawag kayo?" Tanong ng mahal na prinsepe

"We have our map back to North Andalia but since the miasma is spreading across the border of men it's impossible for us to go by sunrise and I have a plan by..." she didn't continued when her eyes roll to the princesses direction

I gasped and those words are killing me one by one "Wait don't tell me?"

"Yes"

"No! I can't signed any contract. I can still go out in the sun I've done it a millions times" pagmamatigas ko. Hindi pwede ayokong ibigay ang kalayaan ko sa kamay ng kalaban nayan.

"You don't have to force yourselves to have signed a contract with me, but I can help by finding a shelter for us and we go at night. Ako na lahat ang bahala sa bayarin"

"Good may utak Karin.." napatigil ako ng tapikin ako sa balikat ni ate

"Luna Vanessa seems you have failed in teaching manners on your family" the prince interjected in our conversation and I slightly glanced ate vane and she's furious at me

"Ako napod ang hihinge ng kapatawaran"

Hinila ako ni ate sa loob ng captain Cabin at napaupo ako sa lakas ng pagkatulak niya. Di nako sumumbat dahil ako naman ang may kasalanan.

"You always disappointment me and now the prince gives us a warning alam mo naman anong mangyayari Diba? gamitin mo nga ang kokote mo minsan! Ket labag sa kalooban mo kailangan parin natin sundin ang utos ng acting Reyna. Wala na tayong choice Luna Quartz di kaba naawa ah apart nalang Tayo. Apat nalang!!!"

Pinigilan ko Ang sarili ko na Hindi mapaiyak sa narinig kong apat nalang. Oo paunos na ng paubos na kami. Pero Hindi sana kami magiging Ganito kung hindi lang punatay nung bwesit na iyon si kuya.

"You don't need to scolded her. It's my fault I stole something precious on her"

The princess enters the room and kneel and bowed her head.

"What are doing here?" Tanong ni ate sa kanya at manahan niyang inahon ang kanyang ulo. I was stunned no words came out from my mouth, she was the first human, born noble, lower her grace and humbly kneel before us, I wasn't expecting that from her"You've done it on purpose didn't you?"

"I want to make peace with you"

"The prince saw that.."

"Huh?" Napalingon siya sa likod at nabigla naman ako dahil andun ang prinsepe sa labas para makichismis pa. "Luna Crest would you mind" the princess order his knight and snatch the prince out of the way and close the door.
