Shades of The Past

Chapter 1: The Promise

A soft rain started to fall, as a loud clap of thunder
was heard and a bolt lighting filled the sky. The
lighting revealed, a lone figure kneeling in a small
cemetery. The figure was seen saying a short prayer
and placing flowers on the ground next to the cemetery's
only monuments. On closer inspection, it is noticed that
one of the two monuments was recently placed there.
Guardian stood there looking onto the graves of his two
best friends. The whole time he was standing there, he
wondered why did it have to happen. Guardian silently
sobbed over the loss of his friend, his companions,
and now the recent loss of his innocent sister like
friend.

"I've failed you my friend, I tried to help her get on
with the rest of her life. But she loved you so much,
that when you died it seemed like she died then also.
We all tried to help her feel better, but every day
that went by she spent more and more time alone.
Just sitting alone in your workshop garage, when we
asked she just said that she just wanted to feel close
to you again. It was then that she started to only eat
what she had to survive. We all knew what she was doing,
she wanted to die. She no longer had the will to live
in this world without you. Then came the day everyone
knew would come eventuality, she went to ask her father
to make her mortal.

It was two days after her wish was granted, that the
temple was attacked. Everyone who could fight, took
part in the battle. What we didn’t know at the time,
was that the real attack was going to be on her.
They must have found out that she was now mortal,
and decided to have their revenge. Myself, her
sisters and others tried their best to heal her
back to normal. But her final wish was that she
would be allowed to join you in eternity. There
must have been the whole campus here to pay their
last respects to her. The service was beautiful,
she would have loved it. I just wish that there
was some way, that I could prevent all of this
from happening" Guardian softly spoke.

It was then that he noticed a single drop of water,
which had fallen on the flowers. All Guardian
could do was to stare at that drop of water, it
seemed to entrance him. A comment that his friend
had said before he died, went through Guardian's
head. ~To solve a problem, you have to find the
source and work your way back from that point.~
Something inside of his mind clicked into place,
as Guardian finally understood what his friend
had meant. "Yes, that’s it!!! But is it really
possible?" Guardian spoke as the realization
of the situation became clear. "Keiichi my
friend, you were a true genius" Guardian said
with tears of hope gliding down his face.

Looking around at the ruins of the temple, the
house and the grounds. Guardian softly whispered
"Spirits of the land, the air, and the buildings,
if your still here and can hear me. Please lend
me your power one last time, in hope that I can
prevent this horrible future from ever happening."
At first nothing happened, Guardian sighed sadly
and started to walk away. Then softly and slowly
the ground, all the buildings and the air started
to glow a light whitish blue. With tears running
down his face, Guardian softly spoke "Thank you."
It was slow, but bit by bit Guardian felt himself
growing stronger.

When Guardian was filled with all of the power,
the spirits had to give him. He tried to open
a portal but failed, "What is wrong? Why can't
I open a portal???" Guardian sobbed falling to
the ground. This had been his last hope, to
change the past and the future as he remember it.
If his two companion's were still here, he knew
that Urd could make a portal easily or even the
young Skuld could create a portal of some sort.
But sadly Guardian remembered, how they returned
back to heaven after their sisters death.

They kept checking up on him, but lately their
visits had stopped. Guardian understood why,
that they were probably really busy. Even
Keiichi's sister Megumi had stopped visiting,
busy with her own life and her new family.
Guardian decided to try once more, but this
time he said a prayer. He started to feel
that something different was happening. This
time Guardian himself started to glow and
then a flash of light, like a lighting bolt
hit him and he vanished. A human form walked
out of the shadows, when lighting lit up the
sky again it was gone.
