"Sareash!, Wake up and get ready you got to help chop firewood remember!"
"Said the Voice of the Woman calling down, Possibly Bring a mother."
Huh that voice is familiar but who is Sareash?, Thought Souta."
He gotten out of the Bed and Looked around he didn't know where everyone was and was confused he looked in a Mirror sitting at the Foot of the Bed."
"Souta saw he was much older in the Reflection, about 17 years old he looked like."
SAREASH! DO YOU HEAR ME!
The Mother Yelled again."
I'm coming I heard you Ma!, Said Sareash."
It came out of Souta's Mouth."
Wait I'm I Sareash?.... Could this be my memory?!, Thought Souta."
Souta now Sareash in the Memory."
He came down the stairs of an old wooden house."
He could see outside there was Snow,
Showing that it was the middle of Winter."
"He came to the Kitchen Area were he saw the mother, hid mother."
I'm up?, Said Souta as Sareash."
Yes I can see that Dear, said Mom making eye contact with him."
Come on and Eat Breakfast, make sure you bring your sister her's too, and give her a kiss before you do Work, don't stay outside too long and get Frostbite, you must make your father proud when he comes back from his Brother's, said Mom."
Alright, said Sareash."
"Sareash ate Breakfast then took some to his Sister, Shouko who was looking out the window."
Hey Shouko?, Said Sareash."
Brother!, Said Shouko with a Smile."
Here's Breakfast, mom wanted to make sure you were ok, said Sareash.
"It's alright I'm fine, just like the Flowers?, Said Shouko."
the Flowers? Said Sareash."
Yes the Flowers let me show you my little secret!, Said Shouko."
Shouko faced at a Vase of Dead Flowers in, There Mother had not got new flowers Sense, as it was Still winter."
But those flowers are Dead?, Said Sareash."
Yes but watch this!, Said Shouko."
She touched the Plant and it started to turn green soon the whole plant came to life!, This amazed Sareash."
"Wow when did you that?, Said Sareash."
I figured out how to do it for awhile now, but I was waiting for the perfect moment to tell yo-?! Said Shouko."
Shouko Began Coughing again and Sareash gave her water."
Thanks, said Shouko."
You need to be careful, who knows how long this is gonna last, said Sareash."
I hope it doesn't, I want to see the Flowers that are outside again!, Said Shouko."
Don't Worry, I promise once Spring comes will go see the Flowers together alright, said Sareash."
Together?, Said Shouko."
Yes Together, you and me said Sareash."
Shouko smiled and said ok."
"Sareash then went to go do his work."
The Snow wasn't really that Tall."
He grab an axe and began Chopping Wood."
He did this for an hour when the Doctor came by to talk with Sareash and Shouko's Mother."
Sareash Directed him to Shouko's Room and his mother and the continued to swing the axe on the Wood."
Once he Tried himself out, he stacked the Wood and took some Wood inside for the fireplace in the Kitchen."
"When Entering in the House is when he Overheard the Doctor Talking to His Mother about Shouko."
Ma'am, I'm sorry to say this but she's not getting any better, she may suffer with it for awhile longer than Suspected, said The Doctor."
I see....how long does my little girl have left please tell me?, Said Mom."
Well I can say, sadly she may not survive when Winter ends, said The Doctor."
"Sareash Overhead all of This."
Knowing about what the Doctor was meaning about his Sister Shouko Illness, there was that Slight Chance that She would not be able to see the Flowers Bloom in Spring, beacuse by then she would already be the The Spirit Fields of the World they reside in."
Sareash put down the Wood and Walked up to his Room and didn't Pay attention to the Doctor or his Mother."
"Sometime later he went to visit his sister in her Room."
Shouko?....If you have this power why haven't you used it to heal yourself from your Illness?, Said Sareash."
"It's not beacuse I don't know how?.....
If I used it for that, what's the point of being sick for myself, someone might have the Same Illness then me, but be worse?, I'm sad about it said Shouko."
Shouko let down some Tears and Sareash took her hand."
Hey it's ok I'm not gonna leave you, said Sareash."
I know....but I'm scared!, What happens when everything goes dark and I can't see you anymore!, Said Shouko."
Sareash Looked out of the Window in the Room."
A Snow Storm was Starting Begin outside, and the Sareash Looked over at the Flowers, Shouko Healed."
"Everything isn't gonna go Dark, said Sareash."
It....it isn't....How? Said Shouko."
Sareash then got from where he was sitting, he covered Shouko's Blanket over her and picked up on his Back."
"Let's go See the Flowers Today, said Sareash."
Sareash took Shouko out into the Cold Winter and they walked away from there Warm home to the Field of Flowers during the Spring and Summer where they would place all day, but even if it was cold and the Flowers would not bloom this was the only way for Shouko to see the Flowers again."
"The House Disappeared In the Snow,
And The Storm became windier."
"Are we there yet?, Said Shouko."
Almost..... Don't worry Shou, said Sareash."
Then Sareash Felled over he couldn't make it in the Cold."
Brother!, Said Shouko."
Sorry.....I just wanted to let you see it one last time, said Sareash."
Brother get up!..... Brother! Said Shouko."
Shouko tears dropped on the Snow and Flowers began to Grow, even if the cold wind the Flowers stayed where they grew, they stay still and had an amount of Pretty Colors."
"Brother?, Said Shouko."
Shouko lay on top of Sareash."
She try to cover him with her Blanket."
She closed her eyes and the Snow continued one."
"Then Later, Sareash heard Shouko Calling him again, he then got up and looked around, they are both covered in Snow and the Storm had Stopped."
"Brother, I heard bells, there were bells could it be our neighbors and family coming to get us?, Said Shouko."
"Bells?....No that can't be it? Said Sareash." What is it Brother?, Said Shouko."
Sareash held Shouko to him."
As Figures in White Robes Circled around them holding sticks with Bells attached to them."
Sareash became Protective of Shouko as the Figures approached them."
"One of the Figures Approached and took of there Hood."
They were a Woman, when Black Hair."
Greetings Sareash and Shouko, I'm Angie the High Priestess of Celestial, said Angie."
High Priestess of Celestial?, That's the Spirit World?!......Are we? Said Sareash."
Unfortunately you're have Cross the Field From the Human World and Celestial, we have come to collect you and a Request, Sareash you have a Pure Heart, and with that Heart you shall become an Angel of Celestial,
But your name Sareash is no more for now one Your will be Referred to as Souta, said Angie."
"Souta? Said Sareash."
Please come with us to Celestial, said One of the Robe People."
Sareash picked up his Sister Shouko and they Follow Angie in the other robe people to Celestial."
The Bells Jiggled and they Walked though, and it became clear when a Castle in the Sky was Seen."
"Wow!, Look Brother it's a Castle in the Sky, just like Papa said in the the Fairy Tales, Celestial is a Real Place!, Said Shouko."
Yeah....he was right?, But for us?, Can we go home?, Said Sareash."
Unfortunately you cannot, if a human passes the Field there body will disappear and they will wonder as Soul guided by the Angels of Celestial,
However for you two, your Bodies Remind, meaning you have the purpose for greater things, said Angie."
"Greater things? Said Shouko."
"As Time Passed, Sareash got used to being called Souta, even Shouko starting Calling him that, giving him a Nickname, Sou-Chan."
"I read this Scroll about a Place in a Earth Called Japan, they they used this word "Chan" for "Little Children", Isn't that amazing.....Sou-Chan?, Said Shouko."
Well if it's used for little children shouldn't you be "Chan" Shouko?, Said Souta."
Shouko made a pouting face and became Silent."
Oh come on, I'm just kidding, said Souta." I know you, said Shouko with a Smile."
Ever since we got here her Sickness Completely Disappeared?....But does that mean?....No I shouldn't be thinking that.... besides does it really matter anymore?, Thought Souta."
"Then Angie Showed up."
Souta, do you mind if I talk to you in private it's a bit of emergency that only you'll allow to know, sorry about that Shouko, said Angie."
It's ok, I promise I won't go peeking, said Shouko."
You better not, said Souta."
Shouko made another pouting face."
"Souta went with Angie, into a Secret Room."
We usually don't have Souls like your sister roaming around here you know, I hope she'll ok with being the only one, said Angie."
The "Only One" what do you mean?,
You did say once Crossing into Celestial, The Human body disappears yet me and Shouko's Didn't, doesn't that mean she can become an angel too?, Said Souta."
Well for Shouko that's not the case, it's something more then becoming an angel, said Angie."
"Souta looked confused and then Angie explained."
You see, Shouko has another reason for her great Potential, though I can't explain it clearly, though I can tell she'll be alright, and this Potential wouldn't cause any harm between you and her, in a sense of having Different Destinies if you know what I mean, said Angie."
Well be honest not really, I guess it's better if I see it for myself when it happens, but what is this place? You took me in?, Said Souta."
"This place is where the Fountain of Restriction resides, it's Waters are connected to all of Celestial, however they can only be used here, anything put in it's Waters let's the Soul, Etc come back to life, however there is also a Curse to it, if you used wrong the Water will dry up, and therefore everyone in Celestial will turn into Stone, said Angie."
TURNED TO STONE?! Said Souta Shocked."
But why are you telling me this?!, Said Souta."
Beacuse I trust you and I had a vision where this may happen and that only you can stop it, there may come a day where you will have to save our world you know Live in with Shouko, said Angie."
"Save our world?, what do you mean by That?, Said Souta."
Unfortunately I don't know, my Visions told me this, you see a New Goddess will be Born from another plane of existence your job is to watch over her and help her realize her power, she will go on adventure and travel with her emotions, she'll gain the Title of "Goddess of Reality", you not know who she is but I am sure you will complete this task, you are one of my best angels after all, said Angie."
"I understand priestess, I'll see too it when the time comes!, Said Souta."
Angie smiled at him."
I hope so, beacuse something tells me she'll be someone very important to you, of course I can't say what it is, you know what it is you have to find it on your own, but this is how the Prophecy goes, said Angie."
"There Exists Worlds Beyond our Own, In a World full of Hidden Magic, there Exists a Child who is a Half and half, she will lead the world she lives in and watch over Many others, she's known as the Goddess of Reality and will forever Reflect the worlds and aid them as the center being of Reality itself."
"That was the Prophecy, Angie Had told him."
He try to process what it meant."
"The Center Being of Reality Itself?, Said Souta thinking about the Prophecy at a Desk In his quarters he shared with Shouko."
What are you talking about Sou-Chan?,
Said Shouko."
Oh it's nothing, I was just thinking about something that Angie told me, it's really nothing to worry about, said Souta."
"Alright, But you Seemed Worry about it, why can't you tell me what it is?, Said Shouko."
Well it's just.....I'm not worried, about you understand I can't talk about it, remember they might have changed by name from "Sareash" to "Souta", but still I'm the Responsible Brother, and I can't tell anything to you either unless they didn't told me too, said Souta."
"Shouko made another Pouting face."
Come on with the Pouting faces There not gonna work on me, said Souta."
"Yeah I know..... that's why Papa always was able to trust you with hard work around farm I wish I was able to do that instead of being sick!, said Shouko."
Well your not sick anymore are you?, Said Souta."
Then Shouko had an Idea."
Hey, what if we go visit Mama and Papa!, See how they have been! Said Shouko."
Are you sure about that?, Said Souta."
Yeah let's go!, Said Shouko."
I don't know what Angie would think but alright, said Souta."
"They Left Celestial for a Bit, and Went to The Human World to the House that they once lived however when they got there they came to a terrible sight."
"The House was No more, it still stud but was kept unwell, cobwebs we're around the Home and the Wood was Rusty and Old."
There were linking in the Roof and Holes too in the Floorboards."
"What Happened?, Where Mama and Papa? Said Shouko."
I don't know, this place is abandoned?,
Said Souta."
Souta went outside and then come across Gravestones with his Mother and Father's name on it along with His and Shouko's."
"When Reading it he found the Fate of his Parents."
His mother died of the same disease as Shouko, and his father died of a Broken Heart, it said he moved away after the Death of his Wife and Children but had a wish to be buried with them, however at the Gravestone Of Souta and Shouko was more of a Memorial to them then a Grave."
"Here should lied the Missing Children of this Family, Sareash and Shouko who Vanished in the middle of a Winter Storm to the unknown, there bodies where never found wherever the two may have ended up or where Sareash the Oldest is, may he and his sister rest in peace in the Spirit World, Along side there Family in Celestial."
"Mom....Dad?...Oh what have I done!, Said Souta."
You didn't do anything Souta, said Angie Behind him."
Angie?!, Said Souta."
Angie came besides him."
"I had to feeling you would come here with Shouko, but please don't blame yourself for what happened to your family, you only did what you thought was good you wanted to make Shouko happy right?, Said Angie."
"Yeah you're right....I just don't want Shouko see this, it's too much, said Souta."
Sou-Chan? Said Shouko."
Shouko?!, Please don't come and look!,
Said Souta."
He was gonna stop her but Angie stopped him."
Hey, I think it's best she have a right too know the truth you should understand right?, Said Angie."
Alright, said Souta."
Shouko went up to graves and couched down and Cried, Souta went to her and held her tight to his arms and she embrace it."
"They Returned to Celestial After that."
And everything different from that point on and it was hard for the Both of them to move on."
Souta stopped thinking about the Prophecy which he would soon regret, but all he could think about was his Sister Shouko and being by her side."
"Until that one Day."
There was a Loud Crashing Sound."
What was that Sou-Chan?!, Said Shouko."
Shouko stay here, I'm gonna go find Angie!, Said Souta."
He raced to find her and Went to the Fountain of Restriction, where Angie had guards."
There he saw Angie on the Ground with her Sword in her hand as she was using it to get herself back up."
He saw a man with a body in his arms as he was about to put it in the Fountain."
"Souta!, stop him! He's trying to Restrict them!, Said Angie."
With Evil Intensions?!, Said Souta."
But before Souta could attack it was too late, The Man Dropped the Body into the Waters of the Fountain and they came back to life."
"I'm alive again?, Said Angela."
Greatest Angela Blanc, I'm sure you know who I am, said Undertaker."
Yes you're the Undertaker, said Angela."
STOP! Did you realize what you have done!, Said Souta."
Undertaker and Angela looked at Souta and Angie."
They two aren't going to let us leave, said Undertaker."
I see?, Said Angela."
Undertaker Attack Souta but Angie got in the way and Pushed him back."
"She Then Grab Souta and they run back to his quarters to get to Shouko,
Angie ordered other Angels who arrived to hold off Undertaker and Angela and to not let Angela leave the Temple where the Fountain of Restriction resides, or else the....Curse would Activate in Self-defense."
"Shouko come with your brother you both need to get out of here now!, Said Angie."
What are you talking about?, Said Shouko." Can you explain what's going?!, Said Souta."
Does it look like I have Time to Explain, I already told you this is what the Prophecy mentioned that means we have to get you two somewhere safe your the only Ones who will be able to stop it!, Said Angie."
The Prophecy?! It's Starting Now!, Said Souta."
"Angie Took them to the Hall of Mirrors."
There's so many mirrors in here?, Said Shouko."
This is the Hall of Mirrors, which Mirror Reflects a different world inside and it's connected to them, Anyone who travels though them ends up in that world.... Said Angie."
This must be how they got in here, and it wasn't properly Guarded!, We were too late for the New Goddess!, Muttered Angie."
New Goddess?, Said Souta."
"Angie Took out a Heart Shaped Locket." She then started to speak a Spell and aimed the Locket at Shouko."
"The Person who Wears this Locket,
Shall be the one to let this Soul Set Free,
Until then, it's Pandora's Box is Sealed Until you Shall be Realaesed!, Said Angie casting the Spell."
Shouko was Pulled into the Locket."
SOUTA?! yelled Shouko."
Angie closed the Locket once Shouko was inside it."
Shouko?!, Angie what did you do?!, Said Souta."
Angie Took her Sword and Cut Souta's Hand."
Agh?!, Said Souta."
She Spread his blood on the Locket."
"There you are bond to Locket and can only open it, keep Shouko inside she'll be Safe, that Locket should protect her!, Said Angie."
That's why you put her inside!, Said Souta."
You have to leave and protect the Locket with your life not beacuse Shouko is inside it you understand, when you find a place she'll be safe, look out for her, because she will become, Important to you, said Angie."
She pushed him to the Mirror in the Middle of The Hall."
Wait what about you Angie!, Said Souta."
I'll hold them off, Please Souta leave before it's too late, said Angie."
"But I can't leave you! Said Souta."
DO YOU WANT ME TO PUSH YOU IN BEACUSE I WILL, NOW GO! Yelled Angie."
Souta understood and went to the Mirror."
Please be okay Angie, said Souta."
Don't worry I'll be fine.....Souta!, Said Angie."
Souta only saw a Glow of light behind him as he left that day with Shouko hidden asleep Within the Locket he now carried."
I see that's how it started, my name was "Sareash" but Angie Renamed me "Souta", and that Locket......I REMEMBER?!.
That Soul in The Locket was Shouko?!
And I Gave Iroha too her so that mean?!, Nozomi is also......!
"Souta Traveled to Many Worlds after that, Running and Looking at people who might be Worthy to be the one who would Protect Shouko's inside the Pandora's Locket."
However he wasn't able to find the right person he hoped for, as he worried that one day something bad might happen."
And so he kept Searching, until he came by one Person, Iroha Tamaki in a 2019 Earth."
Filled with Magical Girls and Persona-Users, a World once apart that was Fuse together."
"Her Bravery, Kindness, Love,
And Her Ability to Stand up and help others Stand up too, Made Souta Curious about her."
So he kept an eye on her and Communicated with her too."
Soon seeing what he had done, he decided to give Shouko over too her, releasing Shouko's Soul from the Pandora's Locket and Putting the Soul into Iroha's Soul Gem, Fusing the Two Together with there Powers, However Shouko didn't wake up."
"Souta Knew he Finally found the person who could take care of Shouko,
And now with Shouko safe he went to take this Revenge on the One who Took his New life with his Sister away."
Angela laughed."
So I see you returned or we bumped into each other here, said Angela."
Yeah looks like it, and I'm going to end you, said Souta."
Very Well then, how about I take a different Form, fighting a lady is quite not a good look, said Angela as she transformed Ash Landers."
"They Fought each other."
And Ash shown himself to be a formidable foe, that Souta couldn't seem to beat."
I believe you hidden something from me haven't mind telling me where it is?, Said Ash."
You have to kill a second time to find where it is!, Said Souta attacking."
Really this again?, Said Ash disappointed."
Ash attacked Souta."
Aghhhhh?!, Yelled Souta."
Really?...is that all you got, you came to this world to protect your sister right, then allow me to give you luck on your side, I am thou, thou art I from the Sea of your Soul, say my name!
"Guanyin!, Said Souta."
Souta summoned his Persona for the first time that day, however it wasn't enough as he was only starting to get used to it."
His lacking Engery wasn't enough and he soon disappeared."
Where did he go?!, And that power did he summon those monsters?! Said Ash."
Hey, hey boy wake up are you alright there?
"Souta Woken up, and Found himself in a Labyrinth, there he met a Woman with Blonde hair in a white Victorian Dress."
Oh good your alright?, Said The Woman."
Who are you?, What is this place? Said Souta."
Unfortunately I don't know very well I've been here for awhile, my name is Clementine..... what's your name? Said Clementine."
Sarea..... Souta!, That right my name was Souta!, Said Souta."
"Souta I see, so how did you end up here? Said Clementine."
I don't know....I can't remember, said Souta."
I don't remember anything that has happened.
"Huh where I'm I? What is this place?,
Said Shouko."
She had Found herself in a Nursery."
There was a Soul Gem and Photograph in a Frame of a little girl smiling with Flowers around her."
She's so pretty?, Said Shouko as she touched the Picture."
But then she did she then found that her Form Turned into the Girl in the Photo."
Oh I look like her now?, Said Shouko."
There was then a cry of a baby, Shouko came over to a Crib."
"There was a baby in that Crib Crying After having a nightmare."
Oh you had a Nightmare?, Don't worry I'm here for you, please calm down little one, said Shouko."
But the baby wouldn't calm down so then Shouko Started to Sing."
♪In my eye and in my way
In the sky so far away
Are you hiding in the grey
I am on my way to find you♪, said Shouko."
The Baby then started to Quiet down and then Opened it's Tear eyes at Shouko singing and she continued to sing."
See that's it, said Shouko."
"♪In the shadow where you lay
In the darkness I'll be praying
one by one in a lonely lullaby♪, said Shouko."
The Baby began to Gigging."
♪Dancing like a lonely feather
In the windy weather
Looking for a beacon and some clarity
Long to fly again together
And I wonder whether
We will ever find our melody♪
♪Over mountain and below the stars
Light my way so I know where you are
And find me,
Anywhere and anytime I sing my song for you♪
♪My tomorrow my today
It is time for you to find your way♪ said Shouko."
Then the Door Open to the Nursery."
"Oh Nozomi there, there don't cry I'm here, it's ok said Sundo Toki."
Sundo was able to put Nozomi back to sleep but she could not Shouko."
"Shouko then held Nozomi's Small Hand."
Hi Nozomi?....I wish one day I'll be Your friend, said Shouko."
