Night of Fate by Kinomi (books to read this summer .txt) 📕

to talk. “G-go on Yoko!” I said laughing at their expressions.
Yoko smiled. “It’s a good thing you’re in a good mood!”
The others were still stunned.
I nodded.
“Well,” she started. “I thought that maybe we could create a place where the children can learn how to do medicinal stuff. I don’t think that’s the right terms, but along those lines,” she said with a big smile.
Kein smiled at me.
I stopped laughing and glared at him.
The others looked at him.
I listened to his thoughts and immediately grew angry. “NO.”
He smiled. “Thought so.”
The others were confused.
Kein stood up and started walking away. It’s ashamed I can’t suggest having her first kiss without her wanting to hurt me. Even if it’s just a joke…
“I’m not done,” I said standing up.
The others stepped back.
He sighed. “I’m not scared. You couldn’t hurt me if you tried.”
My anger flew. I couldn’t control myself. I made vines twist around him.
“Lady Mikazuki! Calm down!”
Everyone was mad at Kein now.
I made myself calm down when Yoko took my hand.
“Kein! What was that about!?” Hatsumomo yelled.
Yoko and Tobashi glared at him, as did I.
“Why did you make her so mad! The first time she’s every been so happy when she wakes up and you have to ruin it by making her mad!” Trinity, another Spirit, yelled at him.
Kein smiled. “Oh, I don’t know. She seems to have the worst temper I’ve ever seen. It’s so fun to get her mad,” he said agitating me.
I put my hair up in its regular pony-tail. “I’m done. Do as you wish,” I said leaving them all.
“What does that mean?” Hatsumomo asked Hayashi.
“I don’t know…,” Hayashi said.
Kein sneered. “Tsk!” he walked off mad.
When I was out of sight I started running. I ran to the deepest part of the forest.
Stupid Kein! I wish he wouldn’t taunt me! Sometimes he makes me want to strangle him! But what does he get from it? I thought when I stopped running.
I looked up at the sun. Why is it that he gets so mad when I tell him that he won’t be the Spirit that will help me control the galaxy? When someone makes a choice, I can see it. I can see what their future choices will be too… I thought.
I went to the valley and made a barrier so that no one could get to me, other than the other Spirits. I want to go and live in those one hundred years that I haven’t searched…
In an instant, I was saw what happened in those 950 years and when I opened my eyes, I was still sitting in the valley.
Hatsumomo and Yoko were sitting beside me. I knew why they were there, I knew everything that had happened. I simply leaned on Hatsumomo.
“Lady Mikazuki? Are you okay?” she asked. Her brown eyes looked worried, her black hair was up in its usual pony-tail.
“Where is Kein?” I asked.
They both looked at one another in disbelief.
Yoko looked at me with her soft blue eyes. “You were the last one to see him…shouldn’t you know?” she asked.
I stood up. “You’re right. I know exactly where he is,” I said.
Yoko and Hatsumomo looked at one another and thought the very same thing. She’s still mad at him?
My eye twitched. “I heard that!”
“S-sorry!” they both said.
I started walking. When I find him…!
I finally got out of sight of Yoko and Hatsumomo, when I did I started running. “Kein, you idiot!” I said out loud with a grin on my face.
“Naturally, I’m gonna ask why you think I’m an idiot. Every since your awakening, you’ve been mad at me for no reason,” Kein said jumping down from a tree.
I laughed. “Does this look like the face of an angry person?”
He was shocked.
I couldn’t stop laughing. “Y-you thought I-I was mad?!” I giggled.
“What else was I supposed to think when you kept ignoring me?”
I laughed again. “Idiot, you would only talk to me when I was deep in thought, therefore I didn’t hear you! I’ve been trying to find you!”
He smiled. “Oh, well I guess that means I’ve been forgiven?”
“By far!” I said calming down. I put my hands behind my head and smiled. “I’ve seen you in your future, I know who you end up falling in love with!” I teased.
“Hey, cut it out!”
“It’s not one of the Spirits…,” I said trying to make him guess.
“I don’t want to know! My future is supposed to be a surprise!” he said. “Wait, it’s not a Spirit? How is that possible?”
“Awe, too bad. You already said you wanted your future to be a surprise!” Strange though…I feel like I’m gonna be connected to someone near the human he falls in love with…
“Mikazuki! That’s just cruel! At least tell me when I meet her!” he begged.
I thought for a moment. “Nope! You’ll fall in love when I do!”
He paused. If I fall in love when she does it might mean I fall in love with her…but she said it wasn’t one of the Spirits…
“At least I’ve got you thinking! You’re right, it’s not me!” I teased.
This is the most horrible things about me being able to see the past and future…I can’t see my own. I can watch the people that are around me to see what happens to me, but I can’t trace myself.
“How do you know you’re going to fall in love?” Kein asked.
“When I looked into your future, you were sulking about me falling in love. I didn’t look on after that, it was right before I went into my slumber. That’s why when I woke up I went to the meadow.”
Kein tried to keep up. “Okay…?”
“Never mind,” I said smiling. “So, is there anything you would like to know today?” I asked.
He thought for a moment. “Actually, there is,” he started. “How is it that the woman I fall in love with isn’t a Spirit? Wouldn’t it be pointless since she would die and I would live on?”
“Oh, but she doesn’t die. After your wedding day-”
“I GET MARRIED?!” he exclaimed.
I sighed. “Yep, after your wedding day, I eventually have to give her the power of a Spirit…I can’t go into details, you would hate me,” I said.
“When do I meet her?” he asked.
“Awe, don’t you want love to be a surprise?”
“Ugh, you can be so mean sometimes!”
“I know.”
We were silent for a moment.
“Lady Mikazuki! Where are you?! Lady Mikazuki! It’s urgent!” Hinode called.
“I’m here, Hinode! What is it?” I asked running over to her.
She tried to talk while catching her breath. “The humans…they-”
I put my hand on her shoulder. “Calm down, catch your breath,” I said being patient. I couldn’t understand what she was trying to say or make out what she was thinking, her thoughts were scattered.
When she caught her breath she looked at me with a panicked expression. “The humans have found us!”
“WHAT?! How is that possible? Why didn’t I see it?!” I exclaimed.
“Tobashi and Yoko were in their human form, but then a fire broke out and Yoko panicked. She immediately took her Elfin Spirit form and froze the place.”
“What about Tobashi?”
“Tobashi, out of fear for Yoko, went to his Elfin Spirit form and used liquid fire to melt the ice. When the humans saw this, they panicked. Now their king and queen want to talk with our leader, you. What do we do Lady Mikazuki?”
I sighed. “It can’t be helped. I’ll meet with them…”

Before I entered the human village, I changed to my human form. I brought Kein, Yoko, and Tobashi with me, they too were in their human form.
When we entered the throne room, I looked at both the king and the queen.
The king looked to be about twenty years old, though I didn’t know how someone so young could be king. He had hazel eyes and short, black hair.
The queen seemed to be about the same age as the king, if not younger. She had violet eyes and long, curly, blonde hair.
“I am King Aaron, this is my wife Zelia. Are you the leader of the elves? If so, where are the elves that have destroyed the commoner’s shop?” Aaron asked with a voice that made him sound as if he were thirty.
“Yes, I am their leader. They stand before you right now,” I said.
He didn’t look convinced. “You are not an elf, nor are they. So how can you possibly be the ones who destroyed the commoner’s shop?”
“I simply do not wish to show you my true form.”
He was getting angry now. “Then show me your true form!”
“How dare you speak to my lady as though she were a commoner!” Kein said being protective.
I raised my hand.
Kein sneered, but he yielded.
“Ha! What did you bring the scum of a guard dog here for? When did these pests get in my castle?”
My anger flew. “You can call me anything you want,” I started. I didn’t realize it, but I had already changed back to my Great Spirit form. “But never talk about my people!”
Kein, Yoko, and Tobashi changed into their elfin form.
“Lady Mikazuki! Calm down!” they said trying to hold me down with their powers.
One of the sculptures at the side of the room had burst from my powers.
Aaron didn’t seem fazed. “So now you show your true form,” he said.
Zelia was frightened, and for her sake, I tried to calm down.
Ice started crawling up my arm, pieces of the shattered sculpture circled my body, and fire was circling around my feet….all from my anger, that couldn’t be controlled.
Yoko and Tobashi stood back knowing there was absolutely nothing they could do.
Kein, however, stayed by me and tried to calm me down. He thought of everything he used to do to calm me down. Then it finally came to him. “Mikazuki…,” he said.
I could hear him, but I still wasn’t able calm down.
He did something that I didn’t think he would ever risk doing. I didn’t think that anyone would ever risk doing what he did…
He slowly put his arms around me. While he did, the fire burned him, the scraps cut him and the ice froze him.
His power was far more powerful than I had given him credit for.
When he couldn’t stand anymore, he fell to his knees.
When I had finally noticed what had happened I stopped everything. The fire vanish, as did the scraps and ice.
“Kein! You idiot! Why did you do that?!” I exclaimed bending down.
He groaned. “It’s not like I had a choice…,” he said healing himself. That’s his power, healing and anything with herbs.
I soaked in how much he really cared for me. “Thank you, Kein…,” I said kissing his forehead.
Aaron was watching. “So the guard dog isn’t worthless. I’ve also seemed to have found my criminals. Well now, what should I do?”
I stood up. “I feel sorry for your child! I hope he doesn’t get as arrogant as you!” I said.
Aaron laughed. “We don’t have any children, yet,” he said.
“And you won’t for the next ten years.”
He sneered. “Besides that, I want to know more about this power of your people.”
“Why should I tell you?”
“Because I am your king,” Aaron said.
“I serve no one,” I said helping Kein up.
“Even so, tell me more. Are all your people like these ones? Or are these the nobles?”
I thought for
