Awaken…child! Kyoko screamed in pain. The child…warrior…pleases save our world once more. She screamed again in agony. Our world is danger. Please save it! I beg of you. Kyoko cried. She did not understand the meaning of this. What did this have to do with her? She tossed and turned, frighten by the darkness that surrounded her. You see if you don't save the world it will be cover in darkness. She cries for help. "What do you want with me? Am just a girl!" The balance of light and darkness had been miscellany with. You must save our world. "I don't understand!" she screamed. Kyoko woke up in distress. The room was dark. Sweat ran down her beautiful angelic face. She cleaned her sweat with her forearm. Save our world! The voice still haunted her. She turned on her lights. YOU MUST SAVE OUR EARTH! "Leave me alone!" Kyoko cried. Save us from darkness…

"Kyoko!" Taeko came running into her room. "What's wrong?" he asked in concern. She shook her head.

"Voices…telling me to save the world. Why me? What does it mean?" she asked herself. She started to sob.

"The girl doesn't understand. The world's fates are on her hands. But she must fulfill her destiny." The guardian talked to the other guardian on her right. "Kyoko must realize how big this is."

"But she doesn't. What if she can't do it?" the other guardian replied.

"She must." She said with confidence.

"You have so much faith in this little child. Don't you Ruby." He replied. He looked at the beautiful priestess. She had long white hair and her bright red eyes shined with hope.

"Yes, I trust her that she'll make the right decision Azure." She told him. "She also has a partner. Her twin star…Sky Highwind."

"Oh yes, Sky Highwind." Azure repeated what Ruby said. "The fate of the world belongs to a child. A child who doesn't understand." Can she and Sky help our world? Azure thought to himself.

"Don't you believe in them Azure?" she looked at him. He was a breath taking to look at. His white long hair tied in a loose ponytail hang over his shoulder. His bright midnight blue eyes glittered with power.

"Hmm…do I believe? They have to prove to me they can do it." He responded. He walked out of the temple. Can they do it? He asked himself. Does Kyoko believe in herself to save our world enough? He looked up into the mystic blue sky. Save our world Kyoko…

"Father why are we going to Cosmo Canyon?" Sky asked her father as she boarded Skylark.

"Would you shut up child. You're giving me a headache." He retorted. She glared at her father.

"I'm not a child am 16 years old." She snapped back at him. "Man, I was just asking why?"

"You'll know later!" her mother butting into their argument. Sky snored and took her sit at the pilot side.

"Get off of the pilot sit." Cid demanded his daughter. She looked at her father.

"What? This is my aircraft not yours! Dammit I have the right to pilot my own plane that I built. Shera sighed. Here we go again…she thought to herself.

"Why you disrespectful child!" Cid roared at his child.

"You bastard!" Sky shouted back with venom.

"Shut up both of you! I had it enough! You sit there." Shera pointed at her husband to the passenger's side. "You sit here!" she told her daughter. "I'm going to pilot the aircraft." She said angrily. "Jeez…instead of having one child and a husband. I have two pig headed people of world." She snapped. Cid and Sky took their seats as they were told. Sky huffed at disappointment. "Sky if you don't adjust your attitude. I'm going to take skylark and sell it." As she turn on the aircraft.

"What?" Sky shouted. Cid started to laugh at his daughter dispense. Shera looked at her husband.

"As for you Cid Highwind! You'll be sleeping outside. If you don't shut up!" She threatened him. Cid looked at his wife in disbelief. Sky couldn't help, but laugh at her old man. He glared at her.

Vincent looked at his wife. She stopped talking in her sleep. What does she mean by her child out there? Is there something she hiding from me? He asked himself. He absentmindedly brushed away her bangs from her beautiful face. She sighed. Does she have another child? Vincent looked at her with so much compassionate. He bends down and kissed her soft pink lips. I love you. Her eyes flattered open. Her emerald eyes were looking to his crimson eyes. A little smiled tugged against her lovely lips.

"Hi darling!" she said cheerfully.

"Hi love!" he replied.

"Good morning…"

"Aeris…" he started. She looked at with worry. "Are you hiding something from me?" he asked. She looked away.

"No! No!" she responded quickly. "I have nothing to hide from you." Vincent didn't believe her, but let it slide this time.

"Are you sure?" he questioned.

"Yes, I'm sure darling." She said caressing his cheek. He must never know that I have another son. A son…She sniffed. Lee, please be all right. She sends him a prayer.

"Aeris…"

"Oh it's nothing darling. I'm just happy." She lied. But Vincent didn't buy it. Something was eating her up inside. Was it the past? A past she doesn't wanted to talk about.

"Papa!" Ayumi ran into the room. Then Ryo came running in after the little girl.

"Sorry…I tried to stop her. But you know how energetic she is?" Ryo apologized for his sister action. Aeris and Vincent nodded. "Oh…I before I forget here you go." He handed Aeris a white envelope. "It's for you." Aeris took it. She looked at the envelope. There was no return address, but it said her name. Mrs. Valentine…Vincent looked at her. It seems the past has caught up to you. He thought. She tore opened the envelope. She stood up not wanting Vincent to read it. And it read:

Aeris,

How is my feisty emerald eye goddess? I know you miss me as much as I miss you. To feel and see your gorgeous body…haha! Well any ways to the point sweetheart. Meet me at Sector 15 tonight. . So if you don't come…you'll lost your son. Haha! You remember your son don't you? Your son…such a bright child, but so disrespectful. Come tonight or regret it! Love ya honey buns!

K

Aeris cringed after reading the letter. She just wanted to forget her past. But her past had found her. And if didn't show up tonight she would lose her son once more. She couldn't take it again if she did. Tears started to flow down her beautiful face. What am I going to do? If I don't show up Lee… She sniffed. And if I do show up Vincent will know my secret that I had been keeping to myself for a long time.

"Aeris what's wrong?" Vincent questioned as he got out of bed and walked toward her.

"Huh? Nothing…it's nothing darling. Don't worry about it." She said and crumbled the letter.

"No, your lying and I know it. What did it say in the letter?" he asked. She looked at him with so much discomfort. He took the crumbled letter from her.

"No, Vincent!" she cried. She didn't want Vincent to find out this way. Vincent read the letter in disbelief. He looked at his wife.

"You have a child?" he said in shocked.

"No, Vincent…it's not like that. Please!" she cried. Ryo and Ayumi looked at their parent with confusing.

"Ryo! Ayumi! Out of the room right now!" Vincent growled.

"No, father!" Ryo protested. "I want to know what going on? And what's upsetting Aeris so much." Vincent glared at his son and Aeris collapsed to the floor. This had overwhelmed her.

"Uhh…." She groaned in pain. "The baby!" she screamed.
