Metanoia; The Hybrid
CHAPTER 11: THE WHISPER, THE STRANGE VOICE.

...※ ·❆· ※...

"All your preparations are done, just waiting for the day to come. Relax a little bit, Alex" said Damian nudging Alex on the shoulder. They were walking towards the royal stables. Damian himself refused the royal butlers to prepare their horses. Because they all want to see where their horses live.

"Not with her, but I'm a little nervous. How are you, Damian?" Alex tells the guards to get their horses out.

"I don't know. But I want to go back to Danveurn's land, where I belong. However, letting the royal members bother Anne also pisses me off. Everything's changed since Roberto's presence, you know that, right?" Damian rode on his horse, and Alex joined in.

Their horses were both of the same color, white. Vampire clan itself has rules for using horses, according to color. For the people themselves, must use a brown horse. The territory also banned the use of black horses, for no reason.

"I wonder why King Andromeda has always sided with Roberto rather than with you. I myself saw King Andromeda talking to you earlier, making me dislike. Father also defended you from King Andromeda" Alex led in front of Damian. Purposelessly just go to the main gate of the kingdom to get out.

"That's because Roberto is stronger than me, do you believe that?" Ask Damian.

Alex shook his head, "No. It was only the words of King Andromeda. In fact, you are strong. Remember, when you fought rogue Lycanthrope when we first visited your kingdom? At that time, you were the only one who came forward. Roberto was hiding behind his face. Ahaha!"

"Sister, sometimes you're good at improving your mood. Oh, see. That's Allegro's crow" Damian parole Alex to look up at the sky.

"The smart kid knows I once had a crow. He came to me this morning, and asked the crow to send a letter to Gara."

"Ah, my son is smart. I'd love to see Gara. What's he doing right now, huh?" Damian.

Alex smiled, "I can tell easily. Dylan was in the tandi field with the other kids. Unfortunately, just because my skills don't work. I wonder, is that because he's a Hybrid?"

"He's not a hybrid, he's just a Gara."

"Where are you going on a busy day like this?"

The two horses stopped suddenly, because of someone who appeared suddenly in front of them. Invitational guest of King Northcliff, the Damonous family. In front of them right now was none other than Raymond.

"You want to taunt us?" Damian asked.

"I have no such intention. I came here to strengthen our relationship. Hahaha, how are you two preparing?" Raymond said as Damian and Alex got off their horses.

"You want to get sucked up?" Ask Alex.

"Good God, it's not like that. But what's wrong with accepting a bit of harsh reality. Only you of our generation have not yet ascended the throne. Quickly get rid of the two old men, I'm tired of constantly succumbing to them" Raymond said.

Damian shook his head, "You can be exposed to the law just because of your words. My relationship with you and I will soon disappear. I keep siding with my son, Gara, the Hybrid you call that."

"I'm no exception" Alex hooked up fast.

"Hm, Alex's sister is no exception."

Raymond rubbed his face, "You misunderstood. Actually we do not want to interfere in the affairs of the Hybrid child. Indeed, it might cause a bad impact for us. Or even a good impact that is good for all of us. But we as the highest King must also think about the risks that will occur, and prepare properly arranged plans to deal with them. I don't want to, either, my clan to the point of being impacted by that. After all, INTI is eager to help. They have tools that can control hybrid properties. There's nothing wrong if they sound pushy about getting Gara."

"What if INTI has other plans that we all don't know about?" Alex asked seriously.

"If the plan was bad, we would definitely not side with them. We also have eyes where we can see right and wrong. I personally don't like the way INTI works. Being a child, and keeping him apart from socializing life would be bad for himself."

"Children need time to develop, and adjust to the way the world works" Damian said, looking up at the sky again. There, another crow flew in the same direction as Allegro's crow.

"That crow belongs to Lucier, my second son. All of a sudden he wanted to have, he didn't say a clear reason" Raymond said.

"If Allegro uses a crow to send a letter to Gara" Alex is honest.

"There's no way Lucier would have sent Xavier a letter, either. His departure was not even seen, or asked how Xavier was there. I have two very different and opposite twins. One is like a normal child, but the other is very childish" Raymond said.

"You are abnormal. The kids are being childish. Then, how the kids behave in your eyes" Damian said.

"It's not like that. Xavier was being overdone. He knew he was a Demon, but he behaved more than a Demon. You know, the view of humans on the Demon clan itself is much different. Because of that view, it makes Xavier want to be as seen by humans. I don't know why he's taking that kind of mind path" Raymond was frustrated.

Damian laughed, "We just don't know, how the kids ask themselves in silence, about their identity and what they're going to do next. This is the time when they are in the process of becoming adults. As parents, we should support their choices. If it goes down the wrong path, then we point to the right path. If they don't listen, speak more calmly. If they hear, give them warmth."

...※ ·❆· ※...

I moved my head straight ahead, looking at the large window that was attached to the dingsing. It turns out the sun has completely set.

There's nobody in this room, nobody else is sick. Only the sisters don't know where to go. They look very busy. Maybe in the other room there are people who are sick as well.

"Pst!"

Suddenly I heard something, at the door there, I saw Dylan peering inside. He came in, and then another one sprung up behind the wall. Piers, Iris, Castiel, Xavier, Luca and Cassa. But I didn't think they were the only ones who came. My friends also came. After everything came in, Dylan closed the big door slowly, and they came to my bed.

"How are you doing, Gara?" Ask Dylan worried. Look at her face, this is the first time I've seen her side like this.

Shit, to open my mouth I can't even, "I'm good."

"You really worry me" said Chlea, who was standing next to me.

"What happened to you?" Piers.

"I don't know either, I don't remember anything" I'm honest.

"He was just exhausted, he chased the deer in the forest until he collapsed" Edward suddenly replied.

"just fine... You are so reckless" said Xavier patting my shoulder.

"How's your throat, does it still hurt?" Ask Selena.

"I don't think the pain is gone" I said with my own neck.

"Isn't Mr. Chairoz told you not to see me or see me?" This time I asked them.

"What to fear from being close to someone who is sick? Mr. Chairoz just doesn't want to bother, and wants you to calm down at the Academy hospital" exasperated Dylan.

"When we're not that annoying or noisy, and look, there's no other patient" Iris said.

That's not what Mr meant. Chairoz, but I'm sure, he doesn't want me to do something to those I don't remember, "I don't want you to feel what I feel, despite Mr. Chairoz has a point."

"If you say it, we'll listen to you. But, only until you recover" Castiel said firmly.

"Sure, until I recover" I smiled suddenly.

After quite a long time they accompanied me, they had to leave, returning to the dormitory upon hearing the footsteps that were getting closer to this room. They left me, and I pretended to fall asleep when the sisters returned.

I don't know how long I kept pretending, until when I looked at the sisters' table, they disappeared again. Maybe they went for a break, because it was so late at night.

I woke up from my sleep and got out of bed. Just one step, making my head woozy. But I managed to adjust myself to stand up straight. There, among the cold walls, in the darkness of the night, I heard the howling of wolves. I got out of the sickroom, and went down the stairs to the first floor.

"A child, half Werewolf and half Vampire."

I looked to my right, when the same voice came back to me, but there was no one. That voice that came while I was in the forest, it's a pity that I don't remember anything. I walked back out of the hallway, precisely towards the landing field.

However, I felt something from the direction towards the forest. As if the darkness of the night really made this forest bring out its original aura. For some reason, it felt like I was in my own world. As it shows I'm part of the Alaskan forest itself.

Then I felt as if I was being noticed. I turned around and looked around that was just dark illuminated by the garden lights in the training area.

"Why are you looking for me while I'm with you?"

That voice really bothers me.

"Actually you don't care, but you're curious."

And he can read my mind!

"My color, it's a part of yourself" a second later I felt something behind me, and turned to look at it. I cannot distinguish between reality and my own fantasy imagination.

"Finally you saw me, Sagara."
