"KAI!!" Sonia said, astonishment at a high level, as she saw Akirion holding his throat, suffering from choking. Her heart pounded like a war drum, with her face screaming for help.
Kai continued drooling until he fell down, and then he was instantly fine. He started panting, while questions were firing in his ears, at the same time trying to process the incident.
"Kai, what happened? Tell me, what happened to you?"
"….." He didn't reply, only panting as he was lost in thoughts.
"Are you okay? How are you feeling?" Sonia asked, as she was totally thunderstruck.
Kai kept quiet while panting; in a second, he sneered, getting Sonia surprised as she saw him about to die, then panting, then with a weird grin.
'Is he for real? He was dying a second ago; now he's smiling, weirdo!'. She silently said while she watched Kai grinning.
"Seraphina, you!!" Kai growled in anger.
"Huh, what do you mean, Seraphina? Who's that?" Another surprise flashed.
'[You don't need to be mad, Master Kai].' A voice rang in his head.
"Master??!!!" Kai was taken aback by the words from his head. His eyes widened as the astonishment filled him up.
'[Sorry I didn't tell you; it was my objective to do what I did. Now I'm with you for eternity.]'
"What??!!"
The screams got Sonia surprised; when she tried to ask, she got no reply.
'[Ohh yes, I'll be seeing everything you see and think about].'
'You!!!'
'[Like I said, you don't need to be….]'
'Where are you? I'll eject...' Kai's anger arose as he kept on listening to the voice in his head, which was Seraphina's.
"What are you doing, Kai?" Sonia asked with her brow quirked.
"Nothing!"
"What do you mean nothing? You were talking to someone a second ago."
"I was talking to myself."
"Who is Seraphina?"
'Hey Seraphina, don't talk to me since you are here. I'll find a way to eject you because you can't hide in me.' Kai silently warned Seraphina.
'[Haha]' Seraphina laughed in Kai's head.
'What are you laughing at?' He questioned with his eyebrows furrowed in anger.
'[You]'
'What?'
'[You can't get rid of me until you die.]'
'Grrrrr you...!!!' His eyes blazed with rage as he got more annoyed.
"Hey Kai!" Sonia continued calling out for the lost Kai.
"Yes, yes, what is it?" He replied, but his mind was on the other side.
"You've been acting strange lately. What happened to you?"
"Nothing!"
'[Don't lie, I got into you].' Seraphina said, getting Kai more annoyed.
"Shut up." "Ohh, sorry, princess, I didn't mean that."
'[What did you mean]'
'I told you to shut up,' he said and went and hit his head on a tree that was nearby.
'[Ohh god, you will be hurting yourself; I'm still unharmed].'
"What are you doing, Kai?" the princess gasped when she saw Kai hurting his head.
"Ahhh, playing with the tree!" He lied, with a smile on his face, trying to get her to believe.
"Huh? You are bleeding! What happened to you? You are totally not normal!"
'[Oh yeah, you are not normal].'
"I'm normal, the same old me!"
"What do you mean old? You don't even have a day here."
"Ouch."
'[What a hit, hahaha]'
"Sorry, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings." The princess pleaded for forgiveness.
'[Ohh dear, she's super dumb].'
"Nah, it's fine; I'm all good!"
"Really?" Kai nodded with a smile, showing all the mischief to the world.
'[Ohh, you guys are too much; I'm coming out!]'
'Wait, what?'
'[I'm coming out]'
'Where do you think you are going?'
'[Didn't you say you wanted to get rid of me?]'
'Ohh yeah, no, not in a time like this.'
'[It's hot in here; I need some fresh air!!]'
'Where do you think you'll be going in front of her?!'
['Who cares about her?']
'I do.'
'[Really, so cute. But I'm coming out'
'The what? Are you for real?'
'[Yes].'
'You'll get yourself killed.'
'[No way, she stumbled on her knees before I even made my appearance, so]'
'Yes, I know; I meant to say that you'll scare her to death.'
'Hell no, she's super strong.'
"Hey, hey Kai, are you there? Hey." Sonia continued calling out to the lost Kai.
Sonia called out for Kai, who had his eyes busy darting around while lost in his thoughts. Sonia's mind raced as she thought that maybe someone had cast a spell on him that made him crazy.
'What really happened to him? He wasn't like this until I... Dammit, it was a real attack. I'm stupid...'
"Be quiet!" Akirion shouted.
Huh, Sonia's heart trembled like a leaf on a windy day. She was surprised by the way Kai shouted.
"I'm sorry!" 'Wait, I wasn't speaking that loud. Can he hear my thoughts?'
"I told you to be quiet!" Akirion continued yelling at Seraphina, but the princess thought that he was talking to her.
"I said I'm sorry!"
"..." Akirion didn't reply.
'[She can be our ally; I'm burning here. If she faints, just carry her to the city castle.]'
'Where is that?'
'[I'll direct you]'
"Wait, no, you aren't coming out." Kai said out loud, causing confusion in Sonia's brain.
"I'm coming."
A small, tiny entity came from Kai's chest; a pressure of wind blew Sonia, making her close her eyes.
When she opened it, she realized that entity was in front of Kai. Her heart pounded for a second, her eyes widened, and her mouth was shaped with a round 'o' since the astonishment made her gasp.
A bit of a scream came from her mouth as a reaction, but in a second, she realized its cuteness.
"Wow, what's this, Kai?" Sonia asked, as she loved its cuteness.
"Huh!!??" Kai got disturbed by the sudden reaction, as he was expecting something out there.
"Hello!" Seraphina started the conversation with Sonia.
"Wow, so cute, just like a toothless baby." Sonia admired the tiny entity.
"Huh?" Seraphina was thunderstruck.
"Huh." Kai was also surprised.
"What do you mean to...?"
"Kai, don't tell me you got another friend just the day you popped here!!"
"Ahh, yeah, meet..."
Seraphina interrupted Kai and introduced herself.
My name is Raphael." Kai's mouth opened wide open as he drowned in the middle of Seraphina's lies. "I'm a fairy, the guide….."
"Wait a moment, didn't you say your name was Seraphina?" Kai boomed as he couldn't hold himself back.
"Boom, he destroyed my undercover profile. What is the matter with you?"
"Nothing?"
"You said I shouldn't come out in front of her!"
"No!"
"You said she can't be our ally, so I lied about my name. Now you have destroyed the lie and the secret!"
"Wait, who just opened the zip!" Akirion questioned with his eyebrows furrowed and his eyes wide open.
"You did!"
"The what? I didn't; you just did!"
"Who raised the spark?" the fairy girl asked.
"Hey, hey, you two, stop it!" Sonia stopped the fight before it caused a world destruction. "Would you be quiet, please! Hey little one."
'Little one?'. Seraphina silently asked herself.
"What's your name, dear? You don't need to be scared."
"My name is Seraphina. I'm a celestial being, here for this stupid handsome young man."
"Huh," Sonia jealously said, astonished.
"Huh." Kai was totally thunderstruck.
"What's wrong?" Seraphina asked as she saw the other two opening their eyes wide open.
"I can't even believe that name anymore."
"Shut up, Kai!"
"Yes, your highness!"
"Wait, Your Highness?" Seraphina asked.
"Yes, she's a princess of this land!"
"I know that; I was just asking why you sounded so respectful!"
"I'm always respectful, even if I'm sleeping."
"In your dreams."
The princess glared at the small-fry fairy.
"Hey, stop staring at me and introduce yourself already."
"Wow, harsh little thing!"
"I can hear you."
"Sorry. My name is Princess Sonia Silvercrest of Luminaris."
"Wow, pretty formal. Let's enjoy your formality, and as for you, Kai, I'm good again. I've taken too much fresh air, so it's time to go back."
"No way, you aren't coming in!" Kai denied letting her in.
"The what …"
"Ohh yeah, remember that I wanted to destroy and get rid of you!"
"Just shut up before I choke you!"
"No way!"
"Choking, or let me in?"
Kai's heart pounded like a war drum as he processed the words.
"Okay, I give up; come in." Kai gave up on arguing with her.
"Before you go, please tell me something!"
"Yes."
"You said that you are a celestial being, so why are you this… you know, big?"
"Ohh okay, I took a fairy form. I'm a complete celestial being!" Seraphina explained.
