My Story 5

<ArchAngel Saige's POV>

"Phera I'm not going to let you ruin Kira's life again. She has been through enough already." Suddenly it was Joel. He busted through the front door. "Phera, I've come to take you back to where you belong! You won't cause anymore pain for Kira!" She smirked again, how I wanted to wipe that smirk off her face. "Who says?!" "I say." Everyone turned around it was Spectra. "Spectra...how did you...?" She put a finger over her lips to hush me. "I brought her out of her room." I looked over at Joel and raised an eyebrow. "You know, you're not suppose to that." "Not true, the Guardians let me, with some reasoning." He winked. Spectra came up to Phera. "How could you do that to my daughter like that Phera? I thought we were sisters." "WE are, I just hate you and your husband and your pathetic daughter! How could she the heir of the ArchAngels?!" "She could have been, but now that won't happen." I said with anger.

It was true, my daughter was the heir of the ArchAngels, but ever since that day, Spectra's sister <a/n:they're really related, so Phera is Kira's aunt> fed her the potion, she became a mortal.

<Yami's POV>

I never knew that Kira was an angel. I have been underestimating Kira for so long. Tears came down my cheeks. 'Kira, I'm so sorry. I never meant anything. I know you won't forgive me for what I did, but I'll make it up to you somehow. Please wake up.' I felt a tug on my pants leg. I looked down, it was Phera. "Don't cry dad, mom know your sorry." That only made me feel worse. I wanted to stop Kira's aunt from hurting her anymore. Then Saige and Joel stepped up. "Get away from her." "And if I don't." "Then you'll have to deal with me." I came out from the back of them. The emotions in me was pure anger. Everyone could tell my daughter, Phera was angry too. I looked up at Saige and Joel. They looked at each other and then back at me and smiled. I was surprised that Saige wasn't going to break me into pieces for treating his daughter like that.

Phera was out numbered so she lost and was taken up to the Upper Kingdom by Joel and Kira's mother, Spectra. "It was good seeing you again Spectra." "I know and I'm sorry for leaving you so early." "It's alright, it's not your fault." "Well I have to get going, I'll love you forever Saige." "Me too." They kissed and she left.

I ran over to Kira and sat next to her bed, tears came down. "Kira, if you can hear me, I just want to say I'm sorry for everything I did to you. Please forgive me." Saige came up to me and put his hand on my shoulder. "She'll be fine. She's just asleep." "How can you be so sure?" "Because I'm her father, I'm suppose to." "I'm sorry for mistreating your daughter, please forgive me. I didn't know what I was doing." "Do not worry, it was the curse that cause you to do the thing you did, but now that it's been vanquished, she'll be in peace." I looked at her and she was smiling. That reassured me alittle. "So is this the Phera I've heard so much about." Phera looked up at Saige and smiled. "Grandpapa, but what about Jackie and the other Grandpa?" "Jackie is one of the Former-ArchAngels, he retired and has offered to help watch over Kira when she left Yami's palace. Your so-called 'Grandpa' is the Earth Guardian, he too volunteered to help. He is also Jackie's father." "But what about that lady that you married?"

Trainy revealed her true self. "I'm also one of the guardians, I'm am the Water Guardian." "She's Spectra's mother." Saige explained as he picked up Phera. "The marriage was a set up to lure FallenAngel Phera out." I was wondering about how this all came about. "Why was Kira set here? What happened in the past?" I looked over at Sagie and he walked over to me. He sighed and started, "It was the day Spectra passed away from a disease. She died a few months after she had Kira..." He told me everything that had happened in the past.

I stayed at Kira's house, by her side, hoping that she would wake up. Saige has left to clean up a few things up in the Upper Kingdom. 'I can't believe she use to be an angel. Well only an angel would be so forgiving after all the thing that Kira's been through.' I looked at her. 'She looks so peaceful.'

It was morning, I was asleep, but I felt Kira move. I quickly woke up and I brushed off the hair covering her face. Her skin was like rose petals. Phera was getting ready for the day and making breakfast. I watched Kira intently hoping she would wake up. She started to shift her body to her side, and to her other side. I was getting tired of waiting, but I couldn't help but hope. I mean there was so many thing I wanted to say to her. I turned my head to the door where I can see Phera on my stool making breakfast.

Suddenly I heard Kira wake up. I turned my head to her direction and saw her get up and yawn. "Good morning." She says, but it wasn't such a good morning for me. She saw me and was startled. "<gasp> Your highness! What brings you here?"

<Kira's POV>

I woke up and it was morning. I could smell food being cooked. 'It's probably Sissy.' I noticed that my fever was gone I was good as new. I open my eyes and the first thing I see is the pharaoh. "Hello your highness! What brings you here?" I saw him crying. "Your highness, is there something wrong?" I got out of bed, but all of a sudden, Phera comes up to me and hugs me tightly, knocking me down back to bed. "Phera honey what's the matter? Don't cry, mom's here." Phera didn't let go of me and buried her face on my lap. "Mommy! I was so worried that you wouldn't wake up." She looked up at me. "Are you okay?" I smiled. "Of course I am, why wouldn't I be?" "Don't lie mommy, I know that your an angel from the Upper Kingdom."

I thought to myself, 'The Upper Kingdom...hmmm....sounds so familiar to me.' I thought and I thought, then I remembered. "I'm not an angel anymore Phera." The pharaoh just stood there. I was too afraid to look at him, but I couldn't help but notice that he didn't get any sleep, but I had to ask so... "Your highness, are you alright? It looks you had trouble sleeping." I just stared at him and he just stared back.

<Yami's POV>

So many questions I wanted to ask her but where to start. I tried but nothing came out, so I just stood there looking like an idiot. I wanted to just hold her in my arms and stay like that for a few minute, but I was nervous. 'What if she thinks I've finally cracked? What if I tell her 'I love you.' but still have that oath? I hope she doesn't keep the oath that she made. She probably does, well this could be my chance to see if she would like to live with Phera and me.' "Uuummm...K-k-kira?" "Yes sire." I felt heat rise on my cheeks. 'What's happening to me?' "Uuh...could you...would you....uuuhh...." "What your highness?" "Would you like to ...uuhh... like to come and live in the palace..." I could see Phera very surprised as well as Kira. "...with me and Phera? You don't have to love me or anything if you still plan on keeping the oath, but just so that Phera would be happy... and it would make me happy too." It was silent for a few minutes. I waiting patiently, but still no answer. Her expression didn't change. I knew what that silence meant and decide to back out. "Umm...you don't have to if you don't want to. I just thought that it'd be easier for..." "Thank you your highness, when can I come over?" 'She said yes!' I ran up and wrapped my arms around Kira, who was holding Phera in her arms. "I'm very glad to hear that, you may move in right now."

A few minutes passed and still I held on to her. She had her head rested on my chest and Phera was getting irritated by the silence. "Mom,now am I old enough to learn archery?" She gave Phera one of her angelic laughs. "We'll see, if that's alright with your father." She looked up at me. I smiled at her and nodded, I decided to be as nice as possible, afterall I do owe her. She turned to Phera, "We'll see young grasshopper." Phera's expression changed from excited to a pout. Which made Kira and me laugh. "Hey! Stop laughing and I'm not a grasshopper." She frown and turned away, but as quickly as she turned away she turned back. "Oh yeah, mommy I made you breakfast. You should eat it so you can eat your medicine." "Thank you very much Phera, and don't worry I won't need the medicine anymore." "Why?!" I was astonished. "Why don't you need the medicine!?" 'Is the fever gone now?! Oh, I hope.' "My flu is gone, I'm not sick anymore." "That's great news Kira!" "Thank you sire." "Call me Yami."

<Kira's POV>

'Did I hear him right?' "Excuse me?" "Well you are the mother of Phera so there isn't any need to be formal around me." I looked at him and he just stared at me. "Are you sure you feel comfortable me calling you Yami?" "I wished it that you'd call me Yami." He smiled and I smiled back. "Ok then, I guess it's just something I'm going to get use to then, huh?" "I guess so." "Come on mom, dad, your food is getting cold." Then I just remembered that Phera had made me breakfast. I snapped out of my trance and got out of bed. I head was kind of sore and I stumbled. I knew I was going to hit the floor, but suddenly the pharaoh...wait...Yami caught me from falling. "Are you okay?" 'This is the very first that he has asked me that question, but why would he care?' "Yes, thank you." "Your welcome." He let go and let me walk myself.

We went into the small kitchen and Phera was waiting for me to sit. I got to a chair and sat. "This looks very delicious Phera, it's very kind of you to make me breakfast." She grinned big. "Why thank you mommy? Daddy you should eat too. Come on sit." He looked uneasy. "Don't worry Daddy, I know it's not as nice as it is back home, but it's still good." He reluctantly sat down and looked down at the food and ate. "Mmmm, this isn't bad, when did you learn how to cook like this Phera?" "Hehehe, it's a secret." And we all ate.

After breakfast Yami helped me pack, well sort of. I was folding my clothes and putting them in my basket when he came beside me. "What's taking so long?" "I'm packing, sorry if I'm slow, but it's not like your in any hurry." "Yes I am." "Well then don't wait for me Yami. If your that busy then go, I'll be fine." "But how will you get to the palace, it's like 30 miles." I smiled at him. "I'll walk, it's not like..." "You will do no such thing!" He looked at me with anger. "But you said you were in a hurry, don't make me stop you and be late." "No, no it's not that. <heavy sigh> Okay ummm...I lied, I just wanted you to hurry so I can show you your room." I wanted to laugh. 'I never knew there was a childish side to his dignified attitude.' "Hey! I resent that!" 'He looks like Phera when she pouts.' "Come on, let's go." He started to just get my pile of clothes and dump it in the basket. "I can't walk around with that mess, Yami my clothes are going to get wrinkled." 'I can't believe I'm talking like this to the pharaoh. I feel so disrespectful.' He gave me a smirk. "Don't worry you won't be walking." "I beg your pardon?" "I told the chariot guy to come back in the morning with a bigger chariot, but at the looks of the amount of clothes you have, I think the chariots going to be really big, don't you agree?" That just came at me all at once. "Now you don't have to worry about a thing, understand?" I simply nodded.

<Daughter Phera's POV>

I very happy that my father was going to let my mother live with us at the castle. We're go into be a family, well sort of. At least mother will be close to me even if they don't love each other.

<Yami's POV>

I couldn't wait for Kira to be in my life again, but she packs to slow. Well anyways the chariot came and Phera went in first, I helped Kira up into the chariot and followed in after her. The ride back to the palace seem so long. I couldn't wait to see DMG's face when she sees Kira and I couldn't wait for a new life to start with her. There are so many thing I want to do for her. My reason, repayment and something else inside of me that I don't quite understand. Well whatever it is I'm sure that I'll find out later in the future.

When we got there, I took her to her room, which was across from mine's and right next to Phera's and there was a door that connected the 2 room. "This is a different room..." "What's the matter don't you like it?" She shook her head. "No, it's no that. I just thought you'd have given me my old room." "I want you to know that, I will not let anyone hurt you and if they do I'll make sure they won't bother you again." She looked at me with a sad face. "Why are you being so nice to me?" "Because I feel as if I owe you." "So if your done 'owing' me, will it be the same as back then?" I didn't know how to answer that question. "Let's not think about that right at this moment. You need to unpack and that's going to take some time." And then I went into my room. 'I wonder what does happen when I feel that my repayment has been done?'

<Kira's POV>

At first I thought that he really did care about me. I thought maybe he loves me again, but I know that'll never happen. He probably going to go back to his old self. I shouldn't have been so excited. I should have known that this was all just business, but I should be thankful that I get to be with my daughter now...well at least till I get kicked out again. 'I feel so used and worthless. I know my father said the curse has lifted, but I don't know. I'm beginning to think the curse is still with me.'

<Yami's POV>

I sat in my room. 'Why am I doing this? I don't know anything about my feelings anymore. Do I really love Kira or is it just pity? I don't care. As long as Phera's happy, I guess I'm happy.' "Yeah I am happy." Just then I heard an eerie voice in my head. 'Are you really happy?' "Who's there? Reveal yourself." 'I can't do that, but I can help you with your problem. That is...if your interested.' "How can you help me with my problems?" It chuckled. 'Your feelings for Kira is merely temporary. You don't love her, it's all pity because she's been through alot, but did she really go through all that?' "What?" 'How do you know that what that angel told you is even true? Think about it.' And then the voice faded. 'Could what Saige say all be a lie? He could have told that lie because he was Kira's friend and use that sad story to trick me into treating her better. Then I will do just as he wish, but how long I don't know. All I know is that Kira expects to be treated well. Fine I will for a month or two then I'll throw her out on the streets again only to be fooled by my act. How dare they try to trick me? I'll show them.' I smirked.

<DMG's POV>

I wonder why Yami didn't come back from Kira's house. "Hey DM why is it talking Yami so long to get back from Kira's house?" He looked and me and shrugged. "I don't know, do you think he got hurt?" I shook my head. "Yami's too smart, but we should check if Phera's still in her room." We went and I couldn't believe who I saw, tears came down my cheek. "Oh my gosh Kira! How did you get here? I thought you was sick." She smiled. "I was but I'm feeling alot better now. It's good to see you two." Phera started talking about something I really didn't get. "Hey DMG, DM did you know my mom was suppose to be an angel, but that meany aunt of her's turned her mortal." 'What?' "Is this true?" She nodded. "Yes, my real mother is Spectra, Granddaughter of the Earth Guardian and my real father is ArchAngel Saige." "What's you mean to tell me that Saige is your father!!! But he's the same height and age as you." "That's his earthly form, his true form is an angel." " So how old is he really?" "I'm not sure but his pretty young for an angel, his about 345 years old." I was shock. '345 years old! Man, his old and he's pretty young! Well angels did exist longer than anyone on earth.' "So how old are you? Are like your father or...?" She shook her head. "I'm still 21, but if I was still an angel I'd be 213." "Wuow... Your older then DM."

<Kira's POV>

I still have the memories I had in the past, even if I was just an infant I could still hear, feel and see everything. It was the most beautiful things I've ever seen, but by far my mother was the most exquisite. I didn't really get why I had black hair when my mother had blonde hair and my father silver. I think I got it from my Aunt Phera, she had black hair. I never thought that she would hate me so much until she killed me and everyone on earth hates me, well almost everybody. It feels like my aunt is still here with me trying to taunt me. "Hey Kira.... Kira?....Kira! Earth to Kira?" I snapped out of my thoughts. "Huh?! Oh, sorry guys. I was just thinking about my past." "Do you miss Grandma or Grandpa mom?" "No." "Why not?" "Because they're in my heart just I am in yours."

<Yami's POV>

I was eavesdropping on them. 'They sure have boring conversations, she's talking about her life when she was an angel. Kira's older than my Dark Magician, nonsense, well she does have wrinkles, but still. This is all a lie and I'll expose her of it.' I moved away from the door DM and DMG were coming out. "Hey guys so I see you already know that Kira's going to be staying with us for a little while." "What do you mean for a little while?" DM asked. "I heard from Phera that Kira's going to live with her forever and she seem very happy, no, happier now that her mother's going to be with her." "But I can't keep her, how am I suppose to find a wife with her around?" "Oh that, don't worry about that." "Why?" "Remember..." "I made an oath that I would never fall for another man ever again. Don't fret your highness practically the whole village knows that I'm going to be alone until I die." I was surprised to hear her say that. I was expecting her to say my real name, but I guess not.

"I will also be leaving in a couple of months from now." "How many month? Can you be a little more specific?" "Until I can tell Phera that I'm leaving again, about 3 or 4 months from now or do you want me to leave earlier." 'She's actually going to do this. I don't have to worry about her, but Phera worries me.' "No, 3 to 4 months is fine with me just try not to get Phera too upset." "I understand sire." I went into my room with DM behind me.

I closed the door. "Why do you hate her Yami?" I looked over at DM. "Because she's a liar and all she wants is my attention and stuff like that." "What do you mean she's a liar?" I sat across from him. "She's not an angel and she never was one. That's just her fantasy dream. Everyone knows that angels are from the heaven and they are the most forgiving, merciful, loving, respectful, beautiful and caring creature to every live aside from the gods and Kira has none of the following." "I think she does." "You do? How so?" "Well she's forgiving and forgave you for using her and having Phera, merciful because she hasn't done anything to her Aunt Phera who tried to kill her and succeed, loving and caring to Phera, respectful she shows alot of respect to you despite what you did to her, and lastly beautiful...well she isn't very beautiful outside but inside words cannot describe. So technically she is an angel on my behalf." All that came out of DM's mouth about the one person.

"I cannot believe you said all that about someone else other than DMG especially my wif..." I put my hand over my mouth. 'I just did not call Kira my wife, did I?' I looked at DM and he was shocked as I was. "Um Yami, did you just call Kira your...?" "NO!! I did not and if you tell anyone I will not be very happy with you DM and NO I don't like her and if I did, I'm not saying I do because I don't, you'd be the very first person to know about it!" "Well if you put it that way, then I think you do like her." I glared at him. "I'm still looking for the right person to come into my life and that person's name does not start with a letter K." "Are you sure, you never know her name might be Katie." I made a 'why do I even bother' look and said, "OK, maybe it might start with a K but I pretty sure it doesn't come close to Kira." "What about Kari or Kiara?" "DM if you like her so much then why don't you date her." "Because I am a faithful guy and will not go for other girls when I'm already with one." "Don't you have a date to go to?" "No, why do you ask Yami?" "Never mind."

It was almost dinner, lunch was fairly nice, all of my friends seem happy that Kira was back. I went to go check up on Phera and Kira. They were in Phera's room and Kira was telling her life and ,of course, more stories. I was starting to get jealous because it seem that Phera liked Kira more than me. I was about to go in, but then I stopped, 'I don't want to interrupt their conversation, Phera seem so happy now. I don't know, lately I feel insecure around Kira. I seem to look at myself to see if there was anything on me or if I looked weird with the clothes I was wearing, and if I did I would change. All because of Kira, I don't want to make a fool out of myself in front of her, that's just embarrassing.' "Aren't you going to go in there Yami? Your daughter and Kira are in there." I turned around, it was Seto. "I don't want to barge in." "Oh, is it because of Kira or Phera?" "Why do you suppose it because of one of them?" "Well normally you'd do as you wish, you are the pharaoh after all."

"Are you saying that I'm not going in because I'm afraid of what Kira think of me?" Seto looked confused. "I never said anything about Kira, do you...?" "NO!" Just then "Is anyone out there? Your highness?" All of a sudden Seto pulled me in with him. "Hey Kira, it's been awhile." "Hello sir." "Don't call me that, it's too formal, just call me Seto." "Ok then, Seto, would you two like to join us?" "Sure, Yami has been dying to get into this conversation, just didn't have the courage to ask you." I was outraged at him, but kind of relieved that I didn't go in by myself. I smiled at Kira and she smiled back, then went back on telling the story to Phera, of course I stayed and Seto to listen to see what Phera has been so excited about. "Ash, Misty and Brock went out on a search to find Pikachu and Togepi. Officer Jenny and Gastly was also helping out Ash and friends. They went to the Pokemon Center to see if Nurse Joy had any information on the disappearances and strange behavior of the Pokemon that have been happening around the city." "Did they find anything?" She smiled. "What they found out is that the Pokemon from the city has been acting strange because of psychic wave in the air which is given out by a pokemon called Drowsy..." It was very interesting how she made up all these name for creatures.

It was night and everyone was asleep but me. I could hear that voice again. 'Why can't you sleep?' 'I'm thinking about someone.' 'Who?' 'None of you business.' 'Do you know why you are always so frustrated and angry?' 'Because I was born that way.' 'No, it's because of damn Kira. You should have made her leave earlier, now your going to be jealous.' 'Why should I be jealous?' 'Because Phera loves Kira more than you.' 'That's natural, a daughter always favors the mother, not the father.' 'Do you really think that Kira's going to tell Phera that she's leaving?' 'Yes, why?' 'You are so gullible, she's lying to you.' 'Impossible! She would never do that to anyone. Your lying to me, I don't believe any of the words you just said, so don't even try to put me on your side, Phera!' 'Grr, how did you know?' 'The sound of your voice, it sounded very familiar.' 'Well your no use to me now. If you interfere in my mission in killing that girl you'll be sorry.' 'If you lay a finger on Kira, I'll make sure you get sent to a place where you'll never find her again!' 'We'll see who wins, well I already know I'll win.' 'Don't be too sure.' 'Oh but I am, you see in 3 to 4 months she'll be out and no one will care for her, not even you, for you will have such hatred for her that you'll kill her yourself.' 'Oh no, I must stop this before it's too late.' 'You are late for I have put a curse on her, so whenever you see her you'll hate her even more and more, mwuahahahaha....'

I got out of my bed and went into Kira's, it was true I was starting to hate her when I saw her. She looked hideous with the scars from the cuts, bruises and burnt marks on her skin. Even if I hated her I knew she had to stay, so I decided to stay at the palace a little long until I can figure out a way to vanquish Phera. I didn't get much sleep, but I managed to wake up early to tell her in private.

I knocked on her door and she opened it, I started hating her more, just like Phera said. "I've come to talk to you." I was trying to maintain my hatred. "Yes your highness come in." I stepped in and the odor even stunk with Kira so I talked quickly. "Kira, I think you should stay for a little while longer." "Why is there something wrong?" "Phera's back and she want to kill you, I'm sorry if I ever act cruel to you from now on." "Why?" "She has put a curse on you, so whenever I see you I'll hate you more and more and eventually kill you, but I need you to stay until I can break the curse, then you may leave ASAP." She sat back down on her bed with a 'I knew this would happen' look on it. "I had a funny feeling that she would be back." "I'm going to leave you alone so I don't say anything mean to you."

<Kira's POV>

The pharaoh left my room. I knew something like this would happen. My life was meant to be miserable every since I was born. I laid on my bed and started to cry. 'I have to accept it, it's my life.'
