![]() ![]() I regretted that now, but it was too late. My head was so full with how you were going to die and how I had to kill Zero that I didn’t think to ask. You didn’t tell me what I should do or where I should go. But Sister, you didn’t tell me what I should do after that. Sister was killed by Zero, and I killed Zero just as I was instructed to. Sister, I understood so much more than you realized… I just wanted her to understand that I knew we wouldn’t be seeing each other again, that this was our last meeting… I wanted her to know that I understood everything, and not to worry. ![]() I threw a tantrum, sobbing and begging her not to go. I knew, so just that once, I tried to stop her. Of course I’d know… that even if she beat Zero, I’d never see her again, because she was planning to die either way. I’m not as smart as her, so I can’t understand things that are too difficult, but I could always tell what she was feeling… whether she was happy or sad or mad… I could tell just by looking. But I could understand her without the use of words. Sister looked surprised when I said this since she hadn’t said anything herself yet. I knew it was the day my sister was going to fight Zero to the death when she came to see me with a strained expression. I wanted Sister to keep visiting me there like she’d always done, holding me gently in her arms each time, forever and ever. I didn’t want the day where I’d have to leave my room to ever come. It was because I never wanted to have to use the sword made of dragon fang that Sister gave to me. The reason I was frowning wasn’t because I was scared to fight. ![]() If Sister went away, who’d visit me? Who’d talk to me? If Sister went away, I… If I had to kill Zero, that’d mean Sister had already been killed by her. Sister probably said that to reassure me, but she didn’t realize I’d figured out something important. If Sister lost to Zero, then it was my job to kill her. I’m not sure how long we were fighting for, but it was also to help me get stronger. The world was still all messed up back then and Sister had lots of enemies to fight. Sometimes Sister would take me out on Gabriella’s back and we’d fly through the sky together. She had a rough way of speaking and could be mean to me, but I didn’t hate her, because Sister really seemed to love her. And Gabriella mostly spoke only to Sister, not to me. I’ve never spoken with anyone other than her and her dragon, Gabriella. It’s small, with only a few things in it: my bed, a little chair, the iron door, stone walls and a single window located so far up I can’t see the sky from it. My room is located in a tower in the cathedral. ![]()
