Precious POV....

The tense bubble wrapped around us burst making all of us go stiff when we heard Elder's words.

"Yes that's why we are having attacks, because the aura surrounding the whole camp." Elder innuendo his statement like a order that clearly means we need  more  precautions.

Sky looked at me with worry in his eyes, fist tighten up in frustration. Nobody said anything, then after few minutes later Eddie shouted from behind running towards us.

"Elder it's done." He respectfully said folding his hands behind mannerly.

"Precious dear and Winter you both have to isolate yourselfs for two days so we can clear the border line and clear up your aura and Winters scent. Tribe men have Winters blood soaked shirt which you left at the beach. They are following his scent and are so close to the deep forest." We both looked at each other aftee Elder completed his words. Winter gave me an apologetic expression I nodded at him.

"Okay where are we staying." I asked holding Winter's hand. Eddie pointed to the west side of the camp where storage rooms are located. I nodded with a small smile not making any eye contact with Sky, I know he'll stop me or will be on guard duty of me.

I don't want him to worry himself because of me and not focus on his status as the leader of camp ēññē.
Winter half hugged Azalea I didn't want to touch anyone so I just waved at them from a distance and jogged off with Winter towards the storage room.

Eddie cleared half of the room for us to sit and prepared few snacks and drinks.

My mind is still replaying Sky's forlorn face when I didn't even say anything to him before hurriedly walking towards the west.

"Thinking about Sky?" Winter's sudden question jerked me out of my thoughts. I sighed and place my head on my bend knees which are bend up as we are sitting on the floor.

"I know why you did that, behaved Rudely or in other words not wanting to cry Infront of anyone." He said making me hit my hearts soft point and I couldn't hold back the choking tears in my throat.

Winter immediately hugged me I clean my mind and my heart draining the sad pool of salty sadness. He sat beside me I put my head on his shoulder while he hummed his all time favourite sad yet heartwarming song ( The Truth Untold) by BTS.

Evening went by as morning came up wooshed by noon and soon evening again welcomed us. It's been almost 32 hours since we isolated ourselves.

We switched the lanterns on as usual  the darkness of the ending evening spread making everything that looks beautiful with sunlight, dull and scary.

Winter and I talked a lot. We cleared so many things plus we did practice alot. With broken swords and Winter taught me some amazing defence move that he learned from Jake.

"It's going to be a boring birthday this year for both of us." Winter sighed with a sad smile. I still remember Our last birthday that we celebrated with Dad. He gifted both of us customised t-shirts that said (our dad is a superhero) which Indeed he still is Our Hero. I smiled at remembering his bright smile after we both wore it and took pictures with him.

Winter checked his phone. We both do have our phones but I didn't have the courage to even open the lockscreen. And for Winter, he texted Azalea a few times but she replied really late as they are busy clearing the boarder lines.

"We do have chocolate cupcakes right?" I nodded at his question confusingly.
"10 minutes left Perry let's make a wish."

I chuckled at my brother he really tried  his best to make me feel better and relaxed, and it did work but the tension building up in my chest is more unbearable, this can't ease down soon enough.

"Perry help me get that table out this junk." He rumble putting all his strength to pull the heavy metal rode so we can get that table out. As we were getting the table out we heard a loud quake from the entrance.

Both of us put the table down with a loud thud getting in position to attack or defend. The flashlight sparkle as footsteps echoed, someone's coming in the storage room from the back door and nobody uses that door. Winter hold a broken sword tightly ready to attack any moment now.

Suddenly about five, six big spotlights switched on making the storage room full of light. "SURPRISE" Both Winter and I terrifyingly jumped backing away to see our friends happy faces.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO WINTER AND PRECIOUS." They all sang their way in Otwins popped party bombs and confetti strings. Azalea holding up a beautifully decorated two floored cake, Kiran and Skylar besides her holding two big bags full of snacks and beverages.

Jake hopped from behind getting in from the window hugging Winter wishing him then crushing me with his famous bear hug. "Happy birthday to my favourite sibling duo." He chimed ruffling both of our hairs like toddlers he took we are are two years younger than him and Sky way to seriously.

"Happy birthday my snow Prince." Azalea placed the cake on the table before wrapping her hands around Winter's neck.

Winter's cheeks started heating up so did his ears aww my baby brother is blushing again for the hundredth times now. Azalea peck his lips lightly and  hugging him. Winter caress her sighing softly tighten the embrace. I smiled seeing them like this. My brother has his reason to live while loving someone special.

"Happy birthday Winter. Happy birthday Eve." Kiran hugged us while wishing smilingly. "Ughh I missed you so much Eve and it's just been 35 Hours." My sunshine reputed while pouting. I smiled hugging her again.

Otwins crushed both Winter and I adding Skylar in this group hug. Finally I'm feeling normal again. Sometimes I wonder why it had to be me? why?  Why I can't be a normal teenager hanging with her friends, having moments with her boyfriend. why?

My resentful questions wonder in my mind then my eyes scan to find my favourite orbs but he was nowhere to be found. He has all the rights to be rude or angry. What I did was so stupid but, at that moment I was angry at my self to be peculiar and to be a threat to all these people I love and care for.

I gasped pulling away from the group hug. "Why are you here?  You guys can't come close to me? I- I_ my aura will surround you guy's?" I blurted out petrifyingly.

"Eve relax it's okay it's fine for us to be here. The coast is clear from your aura and Jake did rounds all around the forest he didn't find even a hunch of Winters scent or your aura." Kiran put her hands on my shoulder calming me down.

I shakingly sat down on the floor breathing heavily. The pain in my heart ejaculated again. Now I felt what that line meant when I read it in one of my favourite books.

( Heart don't have bones. It can't be broken)

Maybe I did grow heart bones. But this heartbreak is not one sided someone else is suffering from this misery, that I created. This pain is so peculiar just like me, I'm a magical mystery walking around being a threat to myself and my loved ones.

A sob finally left my mouth wrecking my bold persona that I created yesterday to conceal my fear of being the reason of destruction. Kiran immediately kneeled down so did Winter, Skylar and Otwins.

But I need him. HIM, who can make this miserable cloak of hatred vanish from my head and gave me peace of mind.

"Precious please don't blame yourself. Please stop pushing yourself away from us or Sky to keep all of us safe. You are not the reason for what is happening, it was meant to happened sooner or later." Azalea objected holding my face up.

"This was predicted by the eternal as a prophecy 17 years ago when you were incarnated. The prophecy said ( The mighty flower itself will feel powerless and at that time the worst will happen) and it's happening exactly what that prophecy uttered." Her words made me look up and when I saw myself in Azalea's lavish green orbs, I found my answer.

I'm the Flower of tear, The Flower of life I can't let myself doubt on my capabilities. I need to take control over myself to protect or to fight not just for my loved ones for myself too. First love starts the moment you love yourself without doubts.

I stood up after making my mind. I don't need to cover my aura anymore. I won't hide anymore like a coward I'll fight the enemy like a true fighter or floret.

"Where is Sky?" The question automatically left my mouth.

"Sky was on guard duty since yesterday. I think he's still at the border line. And don't worry he's not angry with you. Your lover boy was so sad that he didn't enter the camp from that moment you stepped in this room." Will replied to my question.

"I need to find him and clear the air between us that my stupid self dustied around us." Emphasizing to myself I walked out of the storage room.
I heard Kiran asking Sam. "Where is Jake? Did you see him."

But my mind was only on Sky and to finding him. That I unheard the rest of the conversation. I'm going to squeeze my soul out while hugging him.

We made are way towards the ēññē flames in the middle of the camp when I heard someone playing piano.

I looked at my friend's but they all shudder their shoulders unknowingly.
I made my way to get a better view from where the strumming coming from and when my eyes landed on his handsome face my breath hitched in my throat seeing Sky playing piano.

The Brassy gentle and melodiously deep sound diverting from the piano as Sky spread his fingers and jumble them gently on each key.

He looked up straight into my eyes his shining thunder blue colour orbs sparkling a small sad smile on his face. This smile is saying a lot of words that he'll never say by his mouth. He opened his mouth and soon his husky voice echoed while he's playing the piano.

🎶What would I do without your smart mouth?
Drawing me in, and you kicking me out
You've got my head spinning, no kidding, I can't pin you down
What's going on in that beautiful mind?
I'm on your magical mystery ride
And I'm so dizzy, don't know what hit me, but I'll be alright.🎶

My eyes sting with sad tears hearing his ruefully beautiful voice.

My head's under water
But I'm breathing fine
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind

I smiled at him singing this line smilingly. We both are totally opposite I'm crazy and his anger can make him out of his mind.

He stood up from his position walking towards me. I immediately looked down remembering what I did to him yesterday. He gently placed his hand beneath my chin making me look up.

'🎶Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you🎶

Finally the tears bawled out I hugged him tightly wrapping my hands around his waist. Resting my chin on his shoulder tiptoeing I shrieked in his ears.
"I'm sorry" he backed a little ending his beautiful song looking into my mythical eyes.

🎶You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me🎶

I peeked behind me to see no one just the blazing flames silently hovering in the pit. Everyone left us alone to enjoy our moment. "Happy birthday Love." Sky breathe in my ear.

I don't want to let go but had to as my toes started hurting. Me and my helpless romantic moment burster.
I was about to apologize again but Sky put his finger on my lips. Removing his finger he creased my neck with both his hands than looking down. I felt something around my neck.

I looked down at a Beautiful butterfly spreading its wings this pendant looks so light and fragile around my neck.
"This is beautiful Sky. Thank you so much."

I was about to say something again but this time his lips smooch on mine to make me keep quiet. I let myself ease in his arms enjoying the taste of love and wait.

"I missed you so madly that I was about to brust the sky open with lightning but then I remember that the storage room has no electric connection and it's roof leaks." His confession made me laugh and made my tears escaped listening to his whimper.

"What I did was insanely stupid. I tortured myself making you think that I'm mad at you or mad at the situation." I rumble my excuse.

"You know that I only like your magical eyes sparkling with happiness not with sad tears."He wiped away the tears rolling down on my cheeks. Pulling me again into his arms my head rested on his chest. I closed my eyes listening to his beating heart as a lullaby to erase all my pain and soothe it with peace.

****

We all sat down in the dinning arena to celebrate Winter and my birthday and also the day Flower of tear incarnated itself. 10th of April 2002, and today 10th April 2021, I turned 18. Winter and I video called our mom she wished us and I could see her hiding her tears. We promised her to visit soon.

Everyone was engulfed in chatting and eating. I felt uneasy as if something is not right. I scan my surroundings to see what's bothering me because my instincts never lie.

Kiran called my name giving me a spoon full of mango pudding. Both Kiran and Jake are fighting on the last chicken drumstick and Kiran made a pouted face winning the argument.

She placed a kiss on Jake's cheek making his sulking face lit up. The only thing this couple fights about is food and sorting it out with a pout and kiss.

I sighed in relief seeing all of them smiling and happily enjoying every small moment. My hand find the pendent around my neck that Sky gifted me I smiled seeing it remembering Sky also has a same necklace but it has a thunderbolt hovering over a cloud.

Elder called him a while ago and he isn't back yet. I started playing with mashed potatoes in my plate and looked up again to find him walking towards the table. I ravishingly smiled at him he smiled back pushing his blond hair back that were dancing on his forehead. He'll be the death of me. I dramatically put my hand on my heart.

He rolled his eyes giving me his signature drop-dead Archaic Smile.
My eyes travel behind Sky to find an unknown face suspiciously looking at him. I looked down at his hand to find a dagger wrapped tightly in his fist.

I jumped up on my feets. He looked at me tensely not knowing what to do he jerked up and jumped forward to attack Sky. "SKY" I shouted loudly but before even that Sky turned around and fly kicking the dagger out of that men's hand and punched him in his abdomen and then hitting his head on the table knocking him off.

I run to him. He hold me with one hand and used his free hand to pull that men up using his collar.
"Where did you come from? How did you came in? Answer me." Sky shudder him while questioning.

"Camp ēññē get in attack position. Fighters guard around the border line." Jake loudly ordered everyone as a second in command.

"Answer me you damnit. Who let you pass the border line."Sky loudly rumble.
The men pointed his finger towards a direction before passing out. We all looked up to see Terra standing in his pointed position.

"Terra? You did this?" Azalea surprisingly asked not trusting the men.
"I'm sorry I had too." She reputed before throwing a powdery thing on herself and vanishing in thin air before Will and Skylar could catch her.

"She betrayed the camp, she betrayed all of us."Sam angerly blurted out.

"She weakened the charmed around the border line that's why this tribe men crossed the gates."Elder revealed placing his hand on Sky's shoulder.

I looked at Sky my eyes fell on his neckline that he always wears. I think I saw it somewhere. My eyes widened with tensely remembering where I saw it.

In the flames of ēññē, The prophecy, A necklace and a Sword. This is the same necklace that the prophecy hinted about.

Is Sky is in danger or is he's the one who is putting an end to this war? What will happen?
