The maze of lies or unraveling the truth..?

"Hey Lumi!" Cyra warmly greeted me.

"A good afternoon to you to." I replied.

"There's no need for formalities now." 

"I assume you called me here to give me the folders?" 

"That and one more thing.." She said to me  as she handed me the files.

"Continue."

"The run away, as u mentioned, his name's  Zale."

"Okay."

"And I'm helping him hide.."

"That's very bold of you telling me this kind of information, you know?" I said with a hint  of surprise.

"I know, I know! but I really need your help here. There is no way I can hide him forever and I have a high chance of getting caught. So, please understand my situation."

I stood there dumbfounded, I had the choice to backstab her right there and then but... a part of me didn't want to.

 She continued, "You might know my brother but you don't know why he got exiled, you know why?? Because of  me! " 

She still went on, even though she was on the brink of crying, 

" Zale got arrested because he was spotted here and it's forbidden for the people of Cynefin to even come up here, let alone that he knows how to come here.., and for that Caelestis took the blame for me but father didn't do anything, he just said that Zale manipulated him into doing so. My brother still has the scar which my father left on him. I went into depression, I-I liked Zale, Hell no! I loved him! and all I did was sit there as everything gets taken away from me! I refuse now! I don't want that anymore. First, my mother then Zale and now my own brother...."

Just then I heard something fall behind me, and the last time I checked there wasn't anyone near us.

My instincts took over, and before I knew it, I had unleashed my powers on him watching as the threads of energy twisted around him, securing him in an unbreakable hold. Practice makes a man perfect.

Shit-

I forgot Cyra was here..

"Umm.. Cyra, sooo... I'll help you and In return, don't tell anyone about this-"

"You have my word.." Cyra said.

"Anyways! I see we have an uninvited guest here, what do you think we'll do with him?"

"What do you think?" Cyra said, rather a bit enthusiastically.

"Well, I might have some sleeping pills on me, you know? just in case." Saying that I shoved the pills down his throat. 

Within no time, he was knocked out.

"Thats taken care of, Cyra do you have anything else that you need to tell?"

"Yeahh... two things-"

"Go ahead."

"Do you do this everyday or something?"

"Nope. next question."

"You know that the orphic has been missing right?.."

"Don't tell me you have it-"

"No, I don't"

"Then?"

"My father has it.."

"HAS HE LOST HIS MIND?"

"He wants to use it and take everything under his control, if you don't know how this planet works then there are four leads, my father being one of them. These four people will take care everything that happens on this planet and are bound to help each other. My father plans to overthrow that, and to do so he stole the Orphic."

At least now I  know what to do next with my mission but I got caught in the middle of this, well... I'll see how it ends.

*****************************************

Cyra and I decided to drag this guy all the way to their 'hideout' which was a freaking clothing store.

Great hiding spot.

But the store was closed and when we went inside, Cyra whispered something to that lady and then went into the storage rooms.

"Come on now!" Cyra yelled out.

I followed her into the dark hallway and then finally we reached the hideout. There was a boy sitting and writing some, not sure what though. If I had to guess, It was Zale. He has dark brown, curly hair with glistering brown eyes. 

"Hey Zale!" Cyra called out to him and hugged him.

"Hey! and who are these two..?" Zale asked with a confused expression.

"I'm Lumi and this dude is... we'll find out soon enough." I interrupted.

It didn't take long for him to wake up and the in that short amount of time, we explained what all had happened in the park to him. His expression was priceless.

As soon as that stalker woke up, Zale gave a tight slap on his face.

"HEY! WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!"

"Tha-" 

"Thats what happens when you decided to spy on Cyra!" I said, cutting Zale off.

"Soo.. are you going to tell us or should we make you tell us?" Cyra said.

"I AM NOT TELLING ANY SHI-" Zale punched him again.

"He looks like he wouldn't tell us anything." Cyra sighed.

"Oh no worries.. he will soon enough." I replied back, reassuring them.

They both glanced at each, they might think I'm crazy but I have to give up my dignity for this shit. 

I threw in some truth serum in a glass of water, and yet again shoved it down his throat.

Within a few minutes, the truth serum began to do it's magic.

"Ask him anything now, he can't lie" I told Cyra.

" Hey! who do you work with and what's your motive?" Cyra asked him.

"I work for your father and he order me to keep and close eye on you."

"Wow! what did you give him?" Zale asked.

"It's a secret~" 

"Well, after we are done with him, what do we do?" Cyra asked me.

"And thats your wish, now I need to go and do my part of the deal." I replied back.

"Wait! you'll find the orphic and help us?" Cyra yelled as I went out of the room.

"Then what else will I do? Oh, and take these sleeping pills so, if the serum stops working, you can just give him these." I said as I gave her the pills.

*****************************************************************

After a long day, I finally got to take some rest but I'm one hundred percent sure that Erven will come up again. Despite that, I still went to bed.

"Hey Lumi." Erven said, as I found myself in a white void once again.

 "Erven.. is there anyway that I can track the orphic?" I asked, hoping I would get some answers in return.

"Don't you have some mechanical things for that?" 

"No.. the whole reason I was asking you in the first place-" I replied.

"Well, you came to the right spot!"

"Can you just get to the point?-" I asked him.

"Okay so, your energy matches with the orphic' s energy. All you need to do it connect with it, you have to feel the energy of the Orphic but the more farther it is, the less energy you can feel."

"Wait, how would I know though?"

"You'll feel it. Give it a try, perhaps the Orphic is closer than you think."

I tried to concentrate on my energy and build it in my body. Then I could feel something, it was like more energy was coming.

"Hey Erven! it's working!" I shouted in excitement.

"I told you~" 

"I owe you."

"First, stop the war then-"

"You can leave that to me." I said.

"Confident."

"Well, if you tell me that the universe is going for a war again, there is no way I'm going to sit and do nothing."

"Damn. Determined."

"Isn't this the time to send me back to my slee-"

Andd there, I'm back in my bed again.

As soon as I stepped out of the lobby, Cyra told me to meet up again at the same spot, the clothing store at 5.

I tried to find the Orphic before then but it wasn't easy to locate that damn thing and with people on the streets, it's even more difficult.

I didn't give up just yet, and at last at the park, I could feel a stronger connection. I was close to it but I WAS IN A PARK, WHY WOULD A ORPHIC HERE?!-

I spend soo much time thinking and thinking, I lost track of time... 5:30, shit-

I rushed my way over to the clothing store as fast as I could. I met Cyra, who was burning with anger, I didn't know she was punctual as hell- 

"Heyy Lumi, have you seen the time?" Cyra asked in the nicest way possible.

"Okay Cyra, save your anger for another time, Lumi we got new info." Zale said.

Thank goodness, I thought I was done for.

"Anything new?"

"Okay so, The dude yesterday told us that he is trying to harvest the power of the Orphic into himself. So, he can have some mystical powers or something like that-"  

As Zale continued yapping shit, I glanced over Cyra and was bored as hell. 

I chucked at her and smiled back at me.

"HEY ARE YOU TWO EVEN LISTENING?!" Zale yelled on us.

"Oops.. sorry if you weren't yapping then maybe I would have paid attention, you know?" I replied.

"Oh! Lumi, guess what we did with that dude?"

"What?"

"We are not telling-"

"We killed him!" Cyra said out loud.

"Damn, that positive attitude-" I replied.

"I know! how did I even fall for her-"

"Cause I'm amazing~"

"Thats all we have for now.." Zale told me.

"Then I'll will try to find the Orphic tomorrow."

"How are you so sure that you will find the Orphic by tomorrow?" Zale asked with a doubting tone.

"You don't need to underestimate me-" I replied as I left the room.

But just then a hooded figure walked in..  

Well now Lumi is in a tight spot now isn't she?

Others might say over-confidence but I'll say that she's just testing how far her capabilities might go too
