a moment, deciding if I should tell him or not. I searched both choices. If I told him, he would be my ally; if not he would try to hurt my people.
“These are some of the few of my nobles. I have given only a few the power to use these powers. We call them the Great Spirits. I am their Master Spirit, the Spirit of the Galaxy. Everything in this Galaxy rules under me. My other people do not have these powers.”
Yoko looked worried. “Lady Mikazuki-”
“Not to worry, Yoko. I’ve seen the outcome, everything will be all right. I’ll make sure of it.”
Tobashi reached for her hand and gently whispered something that no one but Yoko and I could hear. “She’s right; she won’t let anything happen to her people. She’ll make the best decisions.”
“I’d like to see some more of these powers,” Aaron said.
“I’ll show you on two conditions. If you do not follow, I will not cooperate.”
“Might I ask these conditions of yours?” he asked.
“My first, don’t let your people enter my village. If they do, they will be punished, regardless. My second, do not tell your people about the elves. I will erase their memories of this previous incident.”
He seemed to ponder. “I will agree to both. It shouldn’t be that hard. But if I can’t tell them about you, how will a warn them not to enter your village?”
“Tell them not to cross the river. If they do, they’re on our territory; therefore they will be punished, or in the worst case, killed.”
“I understand,” he said standing up. “Now that we have come to an agreement, may I see their powers?”
I smiled for the first time in front of him. “Yes, you may. But let me warn you, they are ruthless when they’re emotional. They each have a different power; I can control them and their powers. I control everything in the Galaxy, as I have said.”
“May I ask how many nobles you have?”
“I have twelve. I only have three with me.”
“Okay, at some point, I would like to see each one of them demonstrate their powers. Oh, one more question.”
“That is fine, what is your question?”
“May my family, meaning my wife and me, enter your village?”
“Yes, but only after dressing as one of us. Your children may, too.”
Kein looked at me in astonishment. “You’re letting them into our village?! Mikazuki, are you crazy?!” he exclaimed.
“Kein!” I yelled back.
Kein instantly fell to one knee. “I am truly sorry…,” he said.
Aaron smiled. “I see you get along well.”
I ignored his comment and brought my hand up, motioning for Kein to rise. “Now then, they will each demonstrate their powers for you.”
“When they do, I’d also like to know their name.”
I nodded. Looking at Yoko I motioned for her to demonstrate first.
Yoko bowed. “I am Yoko, I am the Spirit of weather and ice,” she said rising.
Aaron nodded.
Yoko brought both her hands up, and without effort, she created an ice sculpture of Aaron and Zelia.
Aaron was amused. “Brilliant!”
“I’m sorry I couldn’t show more,” Yoko said.
Tobashi was next. He bowed. “I am Tobashi, I am the Spirit of animals, and also liquid. If we come back, I will show you my power over animals, but for now just liquid,” he put one hand to the left and the other hand to the right.
Two different liquids formed. Tobashi brought them together making a loud crash.
Aaron was now fascinated. “Fantastic!” If they worked together…
Kein was next. He looked at me. “No one is wounded. How shall I show my powers?” he asked.
I brought out my knife that was in my skinned boots. “You can demonstrate on me,” I said about to cut myself.
“NO!” Yoko, Tobashi, and Kein said at the same time.
I smiled and looked at Aaron. “Oh, whatever shall we do?”
Aaron frowned. “Give me the knife,” he said.
I threw the knife making it cut his cheek. “Oops, I didn’t mean to hurt you,” I said sarcastically.
Aaron put his hand to his cheek which was now bleeding. “Fantastic throw!”
Kein rolled his eyes and went up to Aaron. “Turn your head.”
“Ah, ah, ah! You haven’t told me your name or power.”
Kein glared. “I’m Philip; I’m the Spirit of fire.”
“KEIN!” I yelled at him. “One more smart remark and you’ll be healing yourself for a week!” I threatened.
Kein shuttered thinking about the last time I had hurt him that bad. He bowed lightly. “I’m Kein…I am the Spirit of healing and poison.”
Aaron turned his head.
Kein simply looked at it and it was healed.
Aaron felt his cheek again. “Amazing!”
Kein walked away with his back turned to Aaron.
I rolled my eyes. “They have three different forms: Human; Elfin Spirit, meaning they look like elves; and Great Spirits. Other than the Master Spirits, we have four: human, Elfin Spirit, Great Spirit, and Master Spirit. I’m truly sorry, Aaron. Tomorrow I will bring the rest of them to show you their powers.”
Aaron smiled. “May I call you by your first name? You have called me by mine.”
I looked at Kein who was listening carefully. “I let no one call me by my first name. They seem to just ask for trouble.”
Kein looked away angrily.
“Well then, shall you be on your way?” He asked.
“I shall,” I said tilting my head for respect. “Good day, Aaron, Zelia.”
Zelia’s violet eyes lit up when I called her by her first name. She stood up and bowed. “Good day, Lady Mikazuki!” she said smiling.
“Good day, Lady Mikazuki,” Aaron said bowing.
When we left and were in the forest, I told Yoko and Tobashi to go back. I was going to scold Kein, again.
Kein waited.
“If we are to make allies with them, I can’t have you being rude!”
Kein wasn’t paying attention. He was thinking about something his mother told him before she died. A voice calls to me mother…it is telling me to search for paradise…but what is it supposed to-
“KEIN!” I yelled.
He looked at me as if to ask what I wanted.
I sighed.
“Yeah, yeah. I know, I’ve gotta behave so we can become allies. I just don’t know why it’s important to make allies with them…I mean, what are they to us anyway?”
“Fine with me if you want to be single forever. I was doing it for you.”
Kein looked at me in shock. “The woman I fall in love with is human?! I’ve heard of elves falling in love with the Great Spirits, but never have I heard of a human and a Spirit!”
“I never said it was impossible. I never made it a rule that you couldn’t. That was only because I knew you would hate me for not letting you marry her. That would lead me to having to kill you for treason.”
Kein was still confused.
“You would try to run away with her, she would die, and you would attack the village, me, for not letting you be with her. I watch my choices carefully.”
He soaked it in. All for me? He thought. He bowed his head then kneeled to one knee. “I am truly sorry…truly…,” he said.
I wasn’t happy but I knew he meant what he was saying. “Stand up.”
He looked up. Slowly, he stood up.
“You should be happy I haven’t hit you yet,” I said sorely. I put my hair up and took my cloak off.
He looked happy. “I really do deserve it. All hands-on?” he asked.
I smiled with delight. “With pleasure,” I said changing to a human.
He took a fighting stance and changed to human. “Ready?”
“You can’t heal yourself,” I said not going easy on him.
“Okay, let’s go!” he said.
When we walked into the village I was laughing. “You got beat bad!” I said still laughing.
He wiped his lip which was now bleeding. “Am a permitted to heal myself now?
“Not until Yoko and Tobashi see you. They need to know you were punished for being so rude,” I said.
We had both changed back to our elf forms.
One of the village kids looked at Kein. “Kein, sir, may I ask what happened to you? You’re hurt! I thought you could heal.”
Kein looked at me but talked to the little boy. “I got myself into something I shouldn’t have,” he started. He looked at the kid. “Now I’m paying for it.”
The kid smiled. “So you’re okay?”
“I’m a Great Spirit, I’m sure I’m fine,” he said smiling. He ruffled the kid’s hair then picked him up.
The little boy laughed as Kein threw him up.
Kein caught him then gently let him down. “You stay out of trouble. You can learn from my mistake, okay?”
“Okay, Kein, sir!” the little boy ran off to his mother who was surprised that Kein was so kind and gentle.
Kein smiled at the mother. “Keep him close.”
Since I was close to Kein I tapped his hand to warn him not to go any farther with that matter.
He caught on.
“What do you mean? Has something happened?” the mother asked.
Kein looked at me and thought as if he were asking me a question. What should I say? They know there are humans; they just don’t know how close…should we warn the men? He thought.
I looked at the mother with a slight smile. “Everything is fine, Elvira. There is nothing to worry about. For your kindness and obedience, I would like to meet with your husband. I will give him your reward,” I said.
The woman smiled. “Thank you, Lady Mikazuki. You are always so kind to us,” she said.
Kein looked at me in amazement. She pulled it off so fast…hmm…she really knows her people. He thought.
“Come now, Kein, I need to finish that meeting with the other Spirits,” I said.
We walked to my stone house and waited for the other Spirits.
When they had all gotten there I made the announcement.
“Spirits, I need to warn you of something,” I started off.
They listened to every word I had to say.
“The humans have found us. Yoko and Tobashi will tell the story later, but they are not to blame. I have made an alliance with their king, Aaron. You will all come with me to their castle tomorrow.”
Hatsumomo, who had a short temper, flared. “Why should we make an alliance with them?! They are but weak beings! If our people are found by them, they could be in danger!”
“Calm yourself, Hatsumomo. I have told Aaron that if his people trespass on our land, they will be punished on the spot. He has agreed to keep them away; we will have no trouble with the humans, unless Aaron acts up. In the worst case, I will wipe the humans out,” I said informing her of what we would be doing.
Hatsumomo seemed to understand. She calmed herself and listened.
“I have erased the memories of the humans that saw Yoko and Tobashi; they are not allowed to see us in our elf form. They are not to find out about us.”
They looked pleased.
“We may enter their town, but they are not to enter ours. If they have crossed the river, you are given permission to punish them. Aaron has agreed to that as well.”
I looked at each of them. “If even one of you causes a problem with the humans, you will be punished by me. Kein is our example,” I said looking at Kein.
Kein still hadn’t healed himself.
Yoko and Tobashi tried not to laugh.
I smiled at them. “Yoko,
“These are some of the few of my nobles. I have given only a few the power to use these powers. We call them the Great Spirits. I am their Master Spirit, the Spirit of the Galaxy. Everything in this Galaxy rules under me. My other people do not have these powers.”
