-Zen Vision-
I gasped as I saw Kiko hold the deadly book of fairy tales, The Book of Secrets and Darkness.
"Kiko!" I yell as I see her collapse on the ground. I rushed over.
"Kiko, Kiko! Are you OK?" He eyes were so silver it made me flinch.
"I'm fine." her words were so flat and icy they to made me flinch."We should go." I stared at her.
"M-mmm." I murmured in agreement. I watched her stand up with out letting go of the Book. I followed her out slowly. She seemed so blank. I started to wonder if the Fairy Tales were real, that how The Book would possess any being except for it's own master. We began walking some more. I suddenly noticed that there was a slight limp in Kiko's pace. I realized that since she still held the book, she wouldn't feel any pain.
"Hey, uh maybe we should camp here for the night. Kiko shifted her head and looked at me with one eye. It sent shivers up my back.
"Yes, we should." I swiftly unpacked the tent and we soon went to sleep. She was still holding the Book...

-Dream-
The Ancient Prince Kitto stood before me. I stared back, tensed.
"So she has the book?" his voice was the same as mine.
".......Yes...."
"Has she read it yet?"
"? No, she....... well..."
"Is she still wearing the Jewels?"
"Eh? Come to think of it....... I think she is..."
"Then that's your reason why. The Jewels I received blocked out my identity completely, not any force of magical powers could recognize or remember me, so it would be obvious that not even The Book could recognize her."
"Oh, so all she has to do is take off the Jewels?" Kitto looked worried.
"She won't be able to do that for a while."
"Eh? Why not?" He smiled, tension flashing like mad in the atmosphere.
"You'll see." with that he disappeared and I woke up.

-Reality-
Kiko was sitting up still clutching the book. Her eyes seemed a little darker, yet they still glowed.
"Um...."
"We should go." her voice was softer yet still sorta flat.
"Eh?"
"We should leave."
"Oh..." So we got up, backed away the tent and continued walking. Even though Kiko was dazed, she seemed totally alert. I shifted my gaze downward. What did Kitto mean? I didn't realize I was falling a little behind Kiko. I continued pondering when I suddenly looked up. My body felt frozen. I gasped. The queen of Katarilavmai (aKan), Katarilav's sworn enemy, was... was...... er..... making contact with the lips! O.O
"Erk!" I gasped as whatever was holding me back tightened. Then I realized it. Kiko's eyes temporarily flashed her sweet green color, the went back to the grayish white. As I saw that I noticed there was a ring of silver light under her. Her hair started to gently fly up, as if the was a wind enimitnitg from the ring. The ring grew brighter and soon (as in 2 seconds), I could finally make out silver beams shooting out of it and into the sky. I had a feeling something terrible was about to happen. I gathered my energy up and said my most powerful attack (you see, I use words to create some of my attacks).
"Soul Beam!" I flinched as about half of my energy was released into the air. What ever it was that was holding me disintegrated. I sprinted forward. But..... something beat me to Kiko. I gasped.
"Estrina!" [pronounced Es-tree-na] She smiled. Her eyes turned pink and she gently pointed a finger at the Book, still clutched in Kiko's arms, and slowly made it rise from her. It spun around once, stopped, and disappeared. Kiko seemed to flinch and go limp. I spun around. aKan (oh, it's actually spelled that way) looked annoyed. She shrugged and teleported, probably back to Katarilavmai. I refaced Estrina. She looked happy and satisfyed.
"If your done releasing your energy," I gasped." I'll be taking her with me." I flinched as she finished speaking. So far, I had been the only one to actually know that I released 50% of my energy, and what did she mean by, 'I'll be taking her with me'? I didn't have to wait long.I saw lines appear and disappear on Estrina and Kiko until they disappeared. I took a step forward. (energy level, 0) and collapsed. I coughed as I landed. My eyes were slowly flickering shut, as much as I wanted to stay awake. And. Well... It all went black.
