Jhaan
Marie's eyes open and she looked up to see a man with shoulder length black hair and blue eyes beside Remi. The man looked down at her shocked as she set up and held her head. She took the ring off and slipped it into her pocket as she stood up. She dusted herself off and smiled at him happily.
"How long was I asleep?" Marie asked looking over at Remi.
"You weren't asleep long Marie." Remi said with a smile.
"That's good......Who are you?" She asked looking at Jhaan confused.
"This is the protector of the land of memory. He came to check on us." Remi explained with a laugh.
"My... my name is...." He said looking at Remi with a frown.
"Han. His name is Han." Remi said with a wink.
"Nice to meet you Han." Marie said holding her hand out to him.
She smiled up at him and he gently took her hand and shook it.
"So what happen to the lake?" She asked confused.
"Jhaan did this... he used his magic to make it were no one could see in it." 'Han' said with a smirk.
"Why is he so cruel?" Marie asked with a frown.
"Probably because the queen of Serassa betrayed him." 'Han' asked angrily.
"Wait Queen Laurel betrayed her brother? I thought he betrayed her." Marie asked confused.
"A lie she told everyone.... Queen Laurel betrayed him. You see the truth is that Jhaan didn't want the throne. All he wanted was to be loved by everyone, but the kind and innocent Laurel thought he wanted her crown. So she lied to their people and had him thrown to the land of darkness." He said angrily.
"Why would she do that? I mean he was her brother." Marie said sadly.
"Family doesn't mean anything when power is involved." 'Han' said sadly.
"That is horrible.... I always thought Laurel was the good guy, but really she caused all of this." Marie said sadly.
Han looked at her with a small smile and then Marie looked behind him shocked.
"What?" 'Han' asked confused.
"The lake is turning clear!" She exclaimed happily.
She ran up to it and looked at it as Han followed her with Remi.
"How is that possible?" 'Han' asked shocked.
Marie looked down at the lake and gently stuck her hand in it. She moved it away and smiled as it came out clear.
"What now?" Remi asked confused.
"I... I don't know. They didn't tell me what to do when I got here." Marie said sadly.
"Did she tell you anything?" 'Han' asked calmly.
"No.... only that I would know what to do." Marie said sadly.
She looked around and stopped as she saw a figure walking on the water. It was a woman with long white hair and blue eyes. She had on a long blue dress and no shoes.
"Who are you?" 'Han' asked as he pushed Marie behind him.
"My name is Luna. I am the woman of the lake." She said with a smile.
"Lady of the lake?" Marie asked confused.
"What do you want?" Remi asked as Marie felt him start to shake.
"To help the believer. Child do not fear me." Luna said holding her hand out to Marie.
Marie looked up at 'Han' for answers and he shrugged his shoulders. She let out a sigh and gently took Luna's hands.
"Close your eyes." Luna said softly.
Marie did what she said and Luna gently pulled her into the water.
"Think of all the things you have over come. Think of the people you have met.... now tell me what do you wish for more than anything in the world?" Luna asked softly.
"I... I don't know." Marie said sadly.
"Yes you do.. think Marie.... why are you so sad?"
"I... I miss my mommy...... that's why... I'm so mad at her.... she was my best friend.... I miss her so much." Marie said as she open her eyes.
Luna smiled at her and nodded towards her necklace. Marie looked down and picked it up gently to see a light shining into the necklace.
"Believer." Luna said bowing to her.
She turned around and watched as 'Han' looked away.
"Don't worry Jhaan.... I'm not going to hurt you." Marie said with a smile as she made it back to the edge of the lake.
He looked at her shocked and she smiled at him sweetly.
"You knew who I was?"
She nodded her head and took the necklace off.
"Here. I can't save your world.... only you can. Don't punish them all because of what your sister did.... prove to everyone you are good." She said handing him the necklace.
"Thank you Marie.... you are very kind." Jhaan said smiling down at her.
He sent her a smile and they looked around to see the color return to everything.
"Wow!" Remi exclaimed as he looked around.
"You did it!" Marie squealed as she looked around.
"All thanks to you.... thank you for helping me Believer." He said happily.
"I think it's time for us to return to Serassa and to let the people know that you aren't evil." Marie said with a smile.
"I believe you are right." He said softly.
She smiled at him as he snapped his finger and they returned to Serassa. Everyone who was turned to stone returned to their normal self. Everyone looked around shocked and Marie smiled as Lady landed beside her.
"You did it Marie! You actually did it!" Lady said hugging her.
"I'm glad you are safe Lady..... can you do me a favor and go and tell Argus that I'm here and Jhaan is good?" Marie asked with a smile.
"I need Angelica's permission." Lady said softly.
Right at the sound of her name Angelica ran down the stairs and smiled as she hugged Marie.
"You did it!" She exclaimed happily.
"No Jhaan did it. He saved everyone. I only helped him." Marie said with a smile.
"So you are Angelica.... you are a spitting image of your mother." Jhaan said with a small smile.
"Your him.... my uncle Jhaan." She said softly.
He nodded his head and she sent Marie a smile before rushing over to him and hugging him. He looked shocked for a second before hugging her back. Soon she allowed Lady to leave and to get Argus.
