13 Grounded...But I am I gonna listen? Nope!

*Lilith's POV*

After Lucifer joined the team, in other words, my body, we set off back to the Dalias kingdom. Leaving the forest was a breeze, no demonic beasts, no interruptions, no stalkers...LIFE IN THE FOREST IS SO PEACEFUL!

'Of course it is, you have mine and Scarlett's aura's leaking out no sane beast would want to fight an Ancient Demon Princess of Royal lineage or a Celestial Guardian from the Lost Interstellar Dragons Race. Unless their seeking death, it's common sense...' Lucifer said calmly sipping his tea whilst floating next to Lilith.

"Don't you think that floating next to me is...Ummm a bit eye-catching? Like people are sure to notice you and question, 'WHY ON GOD'S LAND IS HE FLYING!??' it's especially awkward if you continue to sip your tea and ignore them." Lilith says out loud, trying to get him to disappear and stop ruining her quiet time in the forest.

'Oh, this well that won't be a problem since they won't be able to see me.' he says in a matter-of-factly tone.

"How disappointing, there goes my quiet alone time" she whispers to herself before distracting his attention.

"Oh, why is that? How come no-one can see you?"

'Well, you see I possess Space, Mystic fire (Fire manipulation), Shape-shifting, and mana manipulation magic affinities. So by using my spatial and mana manipulation magic I can lock an area off, make barriers, and much more. That's how I made the barrier for the lake but somehow it did work on you, so I'm guessing you possess the rare space affinity too.'

"Wow! Really? That's cool is that also how you manage to get tea out of no-where?"

'Yes, it is I have my own spatial pocket where I store things that I deem is of use to me.'

"...and tea is deemed useful?"

'Well, what else do you think I drink?'

"...fair point."

'Anyways since I have spiritually bonded with you. You should possess one of my magic affinities now besides space.'

"Oooo really? Cool which one?"

'I don't know, how it works normally is that you're born with a spirit guardian beast who shares your affinity but in the case where you acquire a spirit guardian beast. It has to be first compatible, meaning for the master and the spirit guardian to have the same affinity then once bonded the master will acquire an additional random affinity of the spirit guardians.'

"So, it's random like a luck of the draw thing?"

'Yep, we can check later once your body fully recovers.'

"Alright, I guess I'm going to have to wait then...Oh, it looks like we're at the Estates gates."

Looking at the tall walls and tight security, Lucifer was stuck wondering how his little master (Lilith) was able to even escape. 'Is she a trained prison escape artist?' he thought to himself quietly and silently analyzing his master's home.

"Home sweet ho-me" Lilith happily said before seeing the scene of a distraught family crying.

"Uh, Father, Mother, Big sis...why are you all clinging to each other like it's the end of the world and flooding the place?"

"MY BABY! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN!" Father immediately yelled worried, stopping his tears and quickly scanning me overlooking for any injuries that I may have gotten.

"MY PRECIOUS ANGEL! THERE YOU ARE YOU HAD ME SO WORRIED!" Mother rushed over picking me up and giving me the tightest hug ever.

"M-mo-ther, I c-an-tt brr-eea-t-he" I manage to squeak as I lightly pat mother's back.

"Mummy, I think your suffocating Lily. Also, it's my turn." Leona sweetly says gently tugging at mother's dress.

"Oh, right. Sorry, Sweetie." Mother apologizes before placing me on the ground and letting me breathe but not before Big sis manages to squish me into another tight hug and spin.

"I missed you, Lily! please don't ever do that again. You gave father, mother, and I a big scare," she says kindly before letting me go and gently patting my head twice.

"She's right you know...and we can't let it go without punishment so Lilith Rosie Carter you're grounded," Father said sternly, which I completely agree with since I did leave without informing them and I was gone for a long time.

"I understand father, I promise to not do it again without notifying first." I sweetly say whilst gracefully curtseying.

"Alright then, since things are settled. Do you want to rest my little angel?" Mother chimes in happy that her little girl was back.

"Yes, please mummy," I say sleepily.

"Okay, sweetheart. I'll let you rest." Mother says picking me up and taking me to my room where she tucked me in and left with a light kiss to my forehead.

*A week later*

It's been a whole week since my disappearing act and for the whole week, I've been closely monitored by my parents and older sister. They're really scared that I will pull that stunt again, so father and mother keep checking on my every few hours when Big sis isn't there to play with me.

I honestly feel sorry to them that I made them worry so much, but their gonna have to get used to it sooner or later since it will be happening a lot in the future. But for now, I think I'll give them peace of mind by not disappearing during the day.

But's not going to stop me from seeing the world!

In other words, I'm going on a little expedition tonight. To where you might ask, well you'll have to see.

Signed Lilith Rosie Carter

*Achoo*

"Huh? That's strange what's this blue twinkling dust?..." Lilith paused, then it hit her, with excitement clearly in her voice she called out. "Oh! Kairi! You're here, just in time I was planning to go out tonight wanna come with?"

"hehehe, I knew you wouldn't forget me, Lilith! Eri said you wouldn't remember. Hmph, I proved her wrong, I can't wait until I tell her. SHE OWES ME, MY FAVOURITE HONEY PIXIE CAKE!" A small yet vigorous voice yelled in delight, spinning around two times before a small clue little pixie appeared. She had beautiful long curly midnight blue hair, pale glowing skin, cute pointed ears sticking out of her hair and her signature faded black to aqua wings. She was dressed in a short, plain white dress with midnight blue stockings to match her hair and her small smile on her beautiful face, carried a look of mischief.

"Lilith, what were you doing before?" Kairi asked curiously, peeping over Lilith's shoulder to see the contexts of the book.

"oh, this? This is nothing, I'm just finishing some studies. How bout you?" Lilith said casually closing the journal and placing it away, not caring that she lied to her pixie friend.

"Oh! I had the best day! It was filled with so much fun, I switched out Eri's shampoo to mine and now she has blue hair! It was so funny she chased me all over Amaryllis Hollow." Kairi said erupting in giggles thinking back to seeing her childhood friend's reaction.

"My, oh, my. Up to your little tricks again Kairi?"

"Why of course Lilith, what do you expect of my mischievous self," she replied smirking.

"No wonder we get along so well," Lilith replied back giving her own smirk.

They looked at each other for a few seconds before breaking into smiles and laughter. They both became really good friends a few nights ago, Lilith broke out of the estate and went wondering around and by chance stumbled upon a glittering blue and pink light coming from some lilies that we in bloom.

That's when she met Kairi and Eri, both magical pixies who were out late in the night playing a game of cat and mouse, because of a prank Kairi pulled. All three of them got along and the two quickly became found of Lilith, they took her to see the ruler of Amaryllis Hollow where she was accepted into their gates.

She has been going there frequently during the night whilst in her grounding and exploring Amaryllis Hollow with her newly found pixie friends but tonight she had something better installed, let's just say that it involved a little mischief of her and Kairi.
