Welcome to Gaia! ::

After may years of the princess being missing no one has given up home that she may still be alive. Half the kingdom believes that the Chaos world has captured their princess just because they did not want their young prince to merry their little princess and have peace for once. For many feared of what would happen to both worlds if they were to join as one.

Yet even on the 17 years has passed a young peasant girl seemed just as happy, for today was also this young girls birthday. Which her step family promised that she was allowed to leave their house and go out to the kingdom to see the festivities of the missing princess's birthday.

Today was a day that no one was allowed to work in the fields, which for her was a good thing, this young girl was named Reiha and she was raised as an only child by an old woman. Reiha thought of it as special because she loved seeing the empty fields because she was raised by a woman who gave her powers of earth and animals, so she would be safe.

Even if Reiha was walking alone, she saw some one that was hurt and laying against a tree knocked out, and with blood running down his arms, legs, and even from his upper torso. She ran over to him and then kissed each mark, to save his life because for each kiss her lips gave off a healing remedy. Soon when his wounds were healed, and her lips were still against his upper torso healing what was left of the wound the man woke up.

The man pushed Reiha way and looked at her as if she was crazy. He had a sword on his side which he then yelled at her, "What do you want! Why did you save me! Who are you!"

Reiha lay on her side as her face was looking at the plants. She was a little surprised herself that the man had woken up so fast when he was not healed yet. "I am Reiha... and I just saw you hurt... and since no one would have found you until you were most likely dead... I thought it would be best to heal you now.." She raised her face as he then saw her. She had pale skin, soft blue eyes, and a very kind voice.

Everything about her made him uneasy, this man came from Chaos, and it showed. His clothing was dark, and he was already edgy. Yet All Reiha did was look at him as an equal. Not as a person Tengoku was fighting against, for now he was at her planet and even with the sword he carried, she had the upper hand with out him knowing.

The man looked over at her as he then said with a shyness saying, "My name is Drake..." He seemed a little nice in the morning then he did from yesterday. He took the food and then said, "....that is all you need to know about me... but who are you and how did you tame that dragon."

The dragon was getting huffy being called that as Reiha then said, "This is Oni, he found me when I was little... and who I am, I am not sure... Oni found me when I was little when my mother and father were killed in the war..."

The dragon now known as Oni gave a nod as he licked Reiha's click a little with his long tongue. Oni looked over at Drake and did not really care for him that much but trust Reiha's choice in people.

Drake then blinked as he then asked, "So you are an orphan."

Reiha gave a nod as she then said, "I guess you can call me that, but Oni is like a big brother to me... he found me 17 years ago close by at a river bed... he then took me to a family that is close to the river and then asked them to raise me.... The man died a few years ago taking his wife's place in the war... but now she is old and sickly... and soon might die again... just to leave me and Oni alone again."

Drake thought for a few moments. He knew the war did not start 17 years ago, it started only 16 years ago, a year after their princess went missing. Drake looked at her, she had already seemed to remind him of some one, yet even with this information he knew the princess would not have been raised out side of the palace walls.

Reiha looked over at him as Drake had just held the food, she then asked softly, "Is the food not to your liking?" Reiha was tossed on to Oni's back as she clingged on to his long scaly neck.

Drake looked at her as she had smiled at him once again. "... no it is alright I am just not used to eating this much food." He took a bite wondering if this girl could actually be the princess. He knew it couldn't she was not the princess type, she slept on grass, she cooks, she smiles more then most, and she tames dragons for fun.

Reiha blinked as she then said, "... I would be careful if I were you.... last night a messenger from Chaos came to Tengoku, and said we stole their prince... The queen may have been injured.... so if you were heading that way I would be careful."


Drake looked at her. "What?! Chaos thinks that-!!!" He glared as he knew he could not say who he was or where he truly came from. He then said, "...do you know if the queen is dead or not!"

Reiha blinked as she looked over at the side, "... if they were going to tell the peasants that the queen was dead, on the night her own daughter was kidnapped along with Chaos's princes missing.... do you think anyone would tell us..."

"Yes! Doesn't Tengoku mean peace or what ever!" Drake had yelled at her.

Oni took action and took a defense stance. Going to protect Reiha even if it was just yelling. He knew if Drake pulled out his sword he would be a little cut up and Reiha could if she wanted to mend him up.

"Oni... calm down... he does not mean any harm." She patted him as she then looked at Drake. "...Tengoku means Paradise and ever since the war Tengoku has been suffering... less and less children have been born... and if the children have been born they have orphaned."

Drake froze as he then saw that Reiha was against this war, just like him.

Drake gave a cold smirk as she took her shoulder and whispered in to her ear, "People and more keep dieing every day." He was annoyed as he then said, "And one day you will."

Reiha was frozen as she heard those cold remarks she then slapped him a crossed the face. She looked worried at him as Drake had a small dagger in his had. His eyes had changed back to what they were as she then said, "When I die I will! You try it now and every one in Tengoku will kill you."

Oni looked over at them as he gave a glare and pulled up next to her and covered Reiha so she would not be hurt. It was odd that he changed so quickly just because of what she said.

Oni then grabbed on to Drake and flew up with Reiha looking at him. Oni's teeth sank in to Drake's clothing as Reiha then said a few things to Oni as she stood up and jumped. Her clothing had changed in to a blood red crimson color. Drake stared at her as he then yelled at her as she left him with a pissed off Dragon.

Drake kicked and screamed as he called for her. Her name keep being repeated but all that could hear was Oni, finally when it was high enough Oni tossed Drake on to his shoulders as he then called out and said, "Shut up, only I can hear you now..."

Drake stood up and wanted to jump up Oni then flipped and then caught Drake again on his back as he said, "Stay still... I must take you some where while she does her task."

Oni was now close to the water as he said, "You are the prince of Chaos are you not?" Oni asked as he flew over the water.

Drake looked away as he then said, "... and if I am? What then you going to toss me in to the sea?"

Oni shook his dragon head as he then said, "No..." He dived down, the ocean was clear and visible of all life. Drake's eyes widened as he then was able to breath with all the water, fish and other plants around him.

Oni flew deeper and deeper down, past where any man had ever been before as they both saw the crystal castle that was long ago the true birth place of the now king. Oni flew in to the castle as he then flew in to the port and changed in to a human form, "This is where will speak so no others could hear us.."

Drake moved off the wall and was numb in his legs. He couldn't move. When he tried he seemed to stagger. "What?! I was there when she was..." Drake didn't remember hearing the child cry, or scream as it was going down.

Oni gave a nod as he then said, "She was found the same day that your princess Jinsei went missing. The woman she lives with is old, and worn. Reiha gives her life. Its one of her gifts. Yet soon, he lady will ask to be with her husband.... and she will have no one. That is when I will tell her who she is... and what you are going to do next."

Drake ran at Oni and was lifted up by Oni's free hand. Oni was strong, and taller in this form. His body looked meek and frail, but was stronger then the prince.

Drake gave a gasp as Oni then re-spoke,"Listen... she has things she must do here first... other wise she might not be able to do what the true princess needs to do."

"WHAT?! TRUE! YOU SAID SHE WAS HER!" Drake was now using what was left of his strength to kick and hit. Yet even when it did no good, he was acting like a child because that was when he was with Jensai. The girl he had never seen, nor cared to be in love with, yet beloved her because of all that.

Oni tossed Drake in to the wall as he then said, "So this is the real princes of Chaos's true actions."

Drake grabbed on to the wall and glared. He was acting like a child. This place which was of a royal area. Gave me the ability to kill Oni, yet he couldn't. He did not know why. Yet the image of the now Princess. The one he had pushed away, cruelly was his wife to be. He looked down at the floor. He had so many thoughts, yet they all did not add up fully.

"Then let her come back with me. This war is becoming even more deadly each day. Soon my family is going to come here and whip out every one if she is known to be alive." Drake said, and for once still acting like a child seemed to be more adult at the same time.

Oni nodded as he said, "The old woman is tired and will ask soon... I will then tell Reiha who she really is if her mother does not... then all of us will go to the kingdom."

~Meanwhile~

Reiha ran in the forest and past to the brink of the city lining. Her cape, and tight clothing made her seem like a ninja. She climbed up on a branch and did several stunts, that twisted, pulled, and moved her body so she could land on the areas she needed to.

She made her way on the building tops, all the way to the center of the palace. She climbed on the walls so no one could see her or know of her being there. She went straight to the creator which Chaos had sent to them.

Reiha stayed hidden near the top as she listened in on the on going conversation bellow her from a guard, Doctor, and the King.

"She will be alright, she was not hurt badly. Yet mostly young Tengeshi is damaged then her. He covered her, even when she struggled to do so to him." The doctor said.

"... of all days, for the prince to be missing... why must it be today." The king said with such sorrow that he had to sit down. "My daughters death day..."

"Sir.. do not worry. Word is that he is not missing and was coming her to kill the queen himself. So it would easily kill or world sooner." Said the guard.

"... They are in that much of a rush to kill this world... We must end it and soon. Send another assault team to go at the kingdom." The king said to the guard as he looked over and said to the doctor, "Be at both their sides... my oldest will soon be here to talk to his mother."

Reiha watched the guards run off and the doctor leave. The king looked at the ground. A strand of Rei's hair fluttered down and landed down on him as he then looked up.

"Ah... it is you... mystery guard." He said up at her.

Her face was covered all but her eyes and little of her hair. She jumped down and looked at him. She bows to him as she never really says anything to him.

"Have you come again with a report and the medicine?" The king was kind to every one but mainly to her. he could only tell it was a girl because of how her eyes were.

She nodded to him. "Your eyes always do remind me of my wifes...." He turns away and then moves over to take it out. "Here it is... if you find my daughter first I still keep my promise about this medicine."

Reiha nods in agreement. The king told what happened to Reiha and once that was done she ran off to head to the far beach close to her home and where Oni was with Drake.
