Here’s a message:

There are 4 Seeds of Rhea as there are 4 races of elemental Rheans. There’s the Fireen Seed, Windese Seed, Merfian Seed and Soiler Seed. Basically the story will run in finding the Seeds. BUT! As life is unpredictable (and so am I), the whole journey will have it’s twists and turns and complexities… I like ‘em as complex as possible. ^___^

ENJOY!

***CHI rides into the forest on a horse with Kuroi***
KUROI You know, you don’t seem to be so demanding for a prince. You give orders but not like a real royalty would… though you are my first acquaintance so…I’m not sure what I’m talking about. Hehehehe
CHI Hehehehehe…. Well, I don’t ask much from my subjects ‘coz I was raised up to be just a man. I may have the title but if I were to decide about my life, I’d only want to be just Chi.
KUROI Then why don’t you?
CHI I am bound by oath to my people. I can’t just leave the throne.
KUROI I see… that’s very noble of you.
CHI I’m just me…at least I try to be me.
KUROI As long as you’re happy, right? That’s what Shiroi always tells me; I should do what makes me happy.
CHI Happy… absolutely… Shiroi seems to be a very good person to tell you that.
KUROI She is! We hate each other sometimes but it is nothing to how we value our friendship.
***IN the Dark Forest. Spirits still lifts Shiroi higher.***
ROX Xijui… could she be?
XIJUI I don’t know, Rox. But I’m truly intrigued.
CREATURE My name is Senko… Pardon my cruelty, child…
***SHIROI was put down slowly as spirits slowly vanish.***
SHIROI Thank you for understanding us… I was getting scared… My name is Shiroi Aizu.
SENKO What led you here? May I help you with something?
SHIROI Hee-hee. Hear that Rox? He’s goin’ to help us. Do you know the altar of the Fireen Seed?
SENKO Why do you want to go there?
XIJUI ‘Coz she might be able to call upon Yaku.
SENKO Why are you with her?
ROX We’re helping her find her way home.
SENKO Is that it? Are you sure you that’s your motive?
ROX Whaat?! What do you mean by that?!
SENKO But you seem to be of good heart so I give you my service as she wills.
ROX Whaaooow!!! Are there orbs around the altar???
SHIROI Dang you! We are going to find that altar! Not orbs!
ROX Orbs can also help us find our way to other altars!
SENKO No need to find orbs… I know where the other two are.
XIJUI What about the last one?
SENKO Unfortunately, the altar of Iki was lost in the skies after the turn of a hundred. Come. I’ll take you to the altar of Yaku.
SHIROI By the way, if I may say, you’re cute for a light creature. Either huge or tiny.
SENKO I see… follow me…
***KUROI and Chi found their way to the dark forest.***
KUROI Umm…I- I - I don’t wanna go in. ***CHI took hold of her hand.***
CHI There’s nothing to be afraid of…
KUROI Ummm… can you send Akira there?
CHI Lilac and her company are here. I sent word that we’d arrive so I’m sure they have secured the area.
KUROI Are you sure?
CHI I’m sure. Trust me.
LILAC Chi, you’ve arrived safely. Good!
CHI Any sight of the girl?
LILAC We found a light creature with her. They seem to be headed for the altar of Yaku. The criminal and his dog are with them too.
KUROI Criminal?! Hyaaa!!!! ***KUROI went off with the horse***
CHI Kuroi! Stop her! She might get into trouble!
LILAC YES! ***LILAC flew and went after Kuroi***
KUROI SHIROI!!! Where are you, Shiroi?! Answer me!!!
***SHIROI arrived at the altar along with Senko. Senko heard Kuroi’s voice and thought of it as an intruder. He made an illusion as he turned back to his small size.***
SENKO Illusia-barrier! Lunar Scape!
SHIROI Hey! You’re small again. Huh?
KUROI SHIROOOOOI!!! WHERE ARE YOU???? ANSWER ME!!!
***SHIROI spots Kuroi from a far riding on a horse; passing them by.***
SHIROI Kuroi???
SENKO I’ve cast a spell to secure the grounds. No one must see the altar.
SHIROI That was Kuroi! Xijui, help me go after her!
***XIJUI came to Shiroi and as she rides up.***
ROX Xijui, don’t!
SHIROI She’s my friend!
ROX Look! ***HE points at Lilac who stopped and searched the place.***
SHIROI The girly knight. Why is she here? She must be after Kuroi!
LILAC Lady Kuroi!!!
SHIROI Lady Kuroi?! What’s the meaning of this?!
ROX Well, your friend must be a friend of the prince.
***PRINCE Chi came to Lilac.***
ROX CHI!!! ***SENKO stopped him by putting a force field.***
XIJUI Don’t be stupid, Rox! It is not the time for vengeance!
CHI Lilac, we must find that altar.
LILAC Windese scholars are having trouble locating the altar due to the illusions and spells of the Spirits in the forest. It seems that they don’t want the altar to be found by just anyone.
CHI But we don’t have just anyone.
***KUROI arrives back***
KUROI Did you find her, Chi?
CHI No… I’m sorry.
SHIROI Kuroi!!!
KUROI Shiroi?! ***SHE sees Shiroi and gets off the horse and ran to her..***
SHIROI Kuroi, don’t come close the barri---
***KUROI passed through the barrier without getting hurt. In front of Chi and Lilac she vanished. She went to embrace Shiroi who was puzzled.***
KUROI I thought I was all alone. I’m so glad to see you.
SHIROI Huh?! How’d you--- hehehehehe Me too.
ROX What happened?! How’d she get through?!
XIJUI Another Infinian perhaps? One of the daughters? She looks----
CHI Kuroi!!! ***HE comes forward to where Kuroi vanished but the barrier repelled and threw him far***
LILAC Ascension!  ***AS the prince was about to hit a tree he stopped in mid-air and sent down slowly to the ground*** Are you alright, Chi?
CHI I’m alright! An Illusia-barrier spell! There altar must be there.
ROX DANG! They know! Shiroi, call on the Fireen Seed now!
SHIROI What?! There is no altar! And I don’t even know what to say?
KUROI You’re friends with him? ***WHISPERS*** He’s a criminal, you know.
CHI Kuroi! Are you alright?! KUROI!
KUROI I’m right here, Chi. Hello~?!
SHIROI Oh, he doesn’t hear or see you. So you’re friends with the prince? Cute guy!
KUROI You won’t believe what happened to me.
SHIROI Neither will you on what I have to say!
LILAC Spirits of earth, strengthen these hands…
ROX Can you girlfriends stop this chit-chat? Shiroi, the girly knight is breaking the barrier! You must call out for the Seed, NOW!
LILAC To break through the forces hindering my---
***A strange shriek is coming near.***
CHI Oh no! KUROOOI!!! ***DRAWS his sword and tries to slash through the barrier***
KUROI CHI!!! ***She tries to go back but she couldn’t due to the barrier*** What?!
SENKO I’m sorry child but I can’t let you out of the barrier. Minions of Dis are coming! Dark creature, are you able to fortify this barrier?
XIJUI Apollus… be our shield! Aurae Dome! ***A strong light flashed from the scope of the altar***
***THE Illusia-Barrier was broken in exchange of a huge bubble barrier. Chi and Lilac could see them now.***
CHI KUROI!
KUROI CHI! Get out of here!
CHI Not without you! LILAC!
LILAC Spirits of earth, strengthen these hands… To break through the forces hindering my plans! SHATTER!
***THE barrier vanished the moment Lilac placed her palm at the shield. Then Chi grabbed Kuroi up the horse.***
CHI Lilac! Let us leave this place!
LILAC Nice try, fire girl… I’ll see you around.
KUROI Shiroooi! Come on!
LILAC Winds of Iki, comeforth! ***IN an instant they vanished***
SHIROI Kuroi!
XIJUI ROX! Call upon your light orbs!
ROX Light from the sky! Illuminate by my side!
***A shaft of light descended from the sky and started to built a dome of shield; orbs of white floated by Rox’s side. But it was repelled by a shaft of shadows that came from an angle from the sky. Then one by one, Shadow servants appeared in front of them.***
ROX This can’t be happening. ***He drew his twin knives that flashed in an instant and a light yellow crystalline blade stretched out from it's tip in a few seconds. He went in front of Shiroi to protect her***
XIJUI Shiroi! Call upon the Fireen Seed!
SHIROI But how???
SENKO Child… Speak with your heart … the Fireen Seed is present…
