2 Journey to?

The next special day comes for Yong-Byeol. She was nervous and curious about the respond her mother would give. She gets dressed into her daily practicing dress and waits for Yun-Yeong to teach her. Her friend was like a sister, and teacher.

"Okay Yong! Get ready. Lift your sword." Yong-Byeol does as she says and stands in fighting pose. "You should concentrate what your enemy's next move is."

Two of them starts practicing, concentrating on their moves. Eventually, Yong-Byeol wins the battle.

"Oof... Yong-Byeol's strength and powers are getting better day by day!" Yong-Byeol stands there looking at her friend when Yun becomes silent suddenly.

"What-" "Shh! Don't talk," Yun-Yeong moves her fingers on her lips to stay silent. Yong-Byeol listens to Yun and looks around the surrounding to see any intruders. Yun-Yeong feels that someone was spying them but leaves that thoughts and tells her to come with a hand signal which she goes with her back home.

They see their mother working in the kitchen, which they run towards their mother fast as they could. Lady gets frightened when they hug her but turns her head to see her girls.

"Oh My! You scared me, you know girls!"

"SORRY!" Two of them says one at a time which they giggles.

"I need to tell you girls the truth," The lady says seriously so they sit on the mat.

"So Yong... I promised you that I will tell you why we don't go beyond the boundary, right?" Yong nods her head.

The lady sighs before she starts, " I think I should really tell you the truth so please don't get angry or sad, okay?" She nods her head curiously why she told not to get angry or sad.

"So, it was long time back, when I was young like you girls... I was not find of my face or any people. I was not even loved by anyone because I was ugly. And one day I heard that the Devil King grants wishes to the people but he will take anything precious in our life in return so, I thought of going there cause I don't have anything precious in my life. I told him that I wanted to be beautiful to live happily like the other woman are living. He smiled at me and told me that he will take anything precious just like the others told so I agreed."

The lady takes a little break to breath then starts talking, " It was not so long that I was in lobed with a man. I gave birth to five beautiful boys. It was a joyous day of my life." The girls seeing her crying feels emotional and tells her it's okay not to continue but insist the she continue.

"I... I went to a shop one day keeping my love with the boys. B... But to my shock... they were gone leaving a dead love in the room. I was furious, sad and regretted my choice a lot in my life."

"You can stop now, mother."

"I think Yun should tell why we are not going outside this territory." Yong-Byeol looks at her friend while Yun turns towards her and speaks, "Yong-Byeol... the reason is that... if you cross the border you will be seen by the people or anything beyond that and staying here is the safest place. Me and your mother don't want to let anyone to let you get hurt but there will be time you should."

Yong-Byeol hearing the respond gets shock and curious why she should not be going outside from the territory. But she keeps quiet. The lady brings the food and all of them eat before two of them goes back to their training outside.

"I didn't knew that mother was going through this. And why can't I go outside beyond the boundary?" Yong-Byeol asks her friend while walking to their training spot.

"It's because you're-"

CRASH!!!

Just as Yun-Yeong was going to reply they hear a crash from inside their house.

"Oh no! Our mother!" Two of them runs as fats as they could to see if there were any intruders but to their surprise there weren't anybody.

ONLY SILENCE.

"Did somebody just kidnapped mother?" Yong-Byeol asks Yun when she shows a letter in he hand that she picked from the floor.

"I think somebody wrote that letter." Yong-Byeol takes the letter from her hand and reads out loud.

"Goodmorning girls! I think you were having so much fun last days, haven't you? But, I should take your mother with me. She should return her favor for what she promised me long time.

-Devil King."

When she ends reading the letter she gets furious. Her eyes glowing link a fire which Yun-Yeong gets scared of her power. But Yong didn't know that her anger was seen by her friend from her eyes.

"Hey, Yong-Byeol! Calm down." Yong breaths slowly and calms her anger. Yun looks at her eyes filled with tears. She tries to think of an plan just as she thinks of a great plan. But it was dangerous too.

"I think we should go Kingdom Diamond beyond the boundary to save our mother from the Devil King." Yong-Byeol thinks for a while when she agrees at last

"We should conceal our powers in the necklace so our true form could be hidden but it will weaken us if we don't wear it."

After concealing their powers, their looks becomes different. Yong-Byeol with black long hair with brown eyes. Her dress like a normal girls wear. She lost at Yun-Yeong and sees that she was almost alike link her but the hair was only shorter than before.

"Let's go!"

And they marched outside from their safest place.

"We got the woman as told Your Highness!"

The King stands up from the throne looking at the woman venomously.

"Hahaha... So, how was your day, Sowon?"

The lady tries to move from the tight grip of the soldiers but fails. A tear fells from her eyes getting frustrated.

"You will be staying in this palace but if you don't behave well..." The King laughs scarily and continues, "You will be kept in the dungeon... chained."
