Celestial Diaries

Chapter 4

                As the giant angel forces enters the territory of Aegina the Draconus City. She declared to evacuate all the civilian near the south gate of the city. The scouts reported that the enemy forces will enter the south gate by using brute force. The leader of the enemy is said to have a giant hammer on his back. It is said that it will be used to pry open the castle door on the south gate. The southern area of Draconus is composed of agricultural building and places such as barn and rice fields. There are some weaving house and bakery also. as Aegina issued an evacuation order lots of black bats ascend from the skies. Even though its daytime it spread across the sky just to deliver the master’s order. Then the evacuation started before the attack. While the evacuation is in process Aegina herself prepare for the upcoming battle. Even though she is the leader of the city she doesn’t depend on the city’s military force to protect it. she stands up on the chair and go on to change her clothes. She just enter a small cloth partition and started to remove her dress while being assisted by Lulubeth and Lilibeth. Suddenly the two started to question Aegina.

“Are they gonna help us Lady Aegina?

“Yes of course. They are both strong.

“Strong? But I didn’t sense anything on both of them.

“Me too. “Lilibeth seconded Lulubeth’s opinion”

“Thou cannot sense it? Maybe because they just hide it.

                While Quartina and Celeste is on the other side Aegina started to ask Celeste a question while the shadow of her figure was being seen by Celeste and Quartina. Aegina ask if they will be willing to fight for Draconus this time. She said that she will give them a reward if they successfully fend of those attacker that will invade the city. She also said back then that there is supposed to be a treaty of peace between Angel and Vampire and yet this incident has happened. Aegina also knew the fact that there is something that is hidden in this city that is being searched by the enemy forces. Because of that before she finishes changing clothes her two servants Lulubeth and Lilibeth has been given an order to search for an anomaly on the city. The two of them departed quickly and they are gone in a blink of an eye. Aegina now who finished changing clothes said something on Celeste.

“Celeste, you know we Vampires believe in fate and thee who save me back then. Its not a coincidence that thou are there… I think thou are fated to meet me and go on this city.

“I see… but you know what… I will not let myself be swayed by this thing you called fate. Since I will be the one that will forge my own fate.

“*chuckels* I see… I see… Thou really are a strange one.

“Everybody say that to me.

                Aegina wipes the tears in her eyes that were caused by laughing hard. Then she raises her hands trying to shake hands with Celeste and look at his eyes with resolve.

“Then if you may. Can you help us Mr. Strange One.

                As Celeste take Aegina’s hands and kneel down. As she kisses Aegina’s hands he said those words.

“Of course…

“By doing that thou just recognized me as a Princess and not a Barbaric woman right?!!

“Well I guess I am.

“Thou are too kind in helping us.

“Heh! I’m just aiming for the reward that’s all.

                 Then Celeste and Quartina started to head out. When they are outside they directly head on the southern part of the city but as they walk on in the middle of houses. A fierce roar was heard and the windows started to shatter one by one. Then as the shattered piece of glass fall on the ground, before the glass break there is a reflection of a thousand arrows pointed at the location where Celeste and Quartina . They hurriedly hide from the building but the arrow is too many for them to traverse the open field unprotected. So in the end they are stuck behind the house that they made as a shield. Then Quartina volunteered to destroy the artillery that is pinning them down. Celeste agreed on the plan and now they went on a separate ways. Before Quartina got farther Celeste shouted something.
