Morning rises. It seems that the Aura and Hojo are preparing to leave and head back to Edens Garden.
The subjects start to wake up as Aura and Hojo seems to be packing up. They start to help them for the clean up.
Hide wakes up.
"Morning sleepyhead, it's time to go."
It was Hojo.
"Sure went by fast."
"It sure did."
As the subjects and members start to clean the campsite. A loud noise was heard in the distance along with some birds flying off from the forest that isn't too far from the beach.
"What was that?" One of the subjects asked.
Some guards goes up to Hojo and whispered something into his ears.
"Seems that we have a fiend nearby."
Hojo orders the guards to check up on Aura and the noise in the forest. He also tell the subjects to stay with each other while the guards are moving.
Despite Hojo's orders. Hide joined the guards and went to check what the noise was.
As he was running through the forest, he saw bodies of guards hanging from tree to laying down on the ground all torn to pieces.
Hide saw some movement in a bush near him. He goes close to inspects it. Something comes out of the bush.
Out from the bush came out a fiend with some horns and somewhat resembling a human. It seems to have some sharp blades out of its back and hands that seems to be blades. It sees Hide and stepped back and seems to be surprised.
It soon starts to talk to Hide in a strange tongue. Hide somewhat picks it up.
"I can't believe it. Young Master, is that you? " The fiend asked in surprised.
Hide didn't know how to answer but was confused.
"All these years we've been looking for you. We thought you were dead. "
In distance some shouting was heard.
"Hide!"
"Hide!"
"Young master it seems that someone is coming. I must go. I will get you, Young Lord."
The fiend suddenly vanishes from thin air.
Hojo makes to the scene out of breath. He takes some air.
"Hide, don't scare me like that. What happened here?" Hojo asked while still tire.
"A fiend was here. It was talking to me too."
"What..." Hojo was surprised about what Hide said ignoring the fact that the guards died.
"What was he saying?" Hojo asked.
"I don't know, I couldn't make a word out of it." Hide answered.
"Let's head back. We can try to see if you can communicate with them."
Hide and Hojo makes it back to the group and it seems that everyone was on the manta ray's back and ready to leave.
The two gets on it back. The manta ray takes off from the sandy beach and back into the air.
Down below near the shadows from the tree. Lies the fiend from earlier looking at the manta ray who seems to have taken off. It seems to be looking where it was going and it's destination.
Some hours passed.
Everyone was back at Edens Garden. All of the subjects have been put back into their cell. While Hojo and Aura seems to be talking with each other in a meeting room.
"You were saying that Hide was talking with a fiend. There's has never been anyone who can communicate with a fiend."
"Indeed but I don't know if he truly understands it as of now. You think it might be due to his left eye."
"Maybe but we need to see if he can actually communicate with them. After all, fiends are known to be dangerous."
"We should test it out if it's true. After all, we get more research on him."
Hide was laying down on his bed. As he was laying down he somewhat feels like he met the fiend somewhere before.
Soon a noise was heard near his cell. His cell opens. He sees Hojo and Aura outside his cell.
"Hide, we have something for you."
"What is it?"
"About earlier, you said that a fiend was talking with you."
"Yeah."
"Well, Aura and I want to see if this is true. So there is a fiend that we have locked away that can maybe see if it's true."
"What if it doesn't?"
"Then that tell us that Hojo and I, that maybe that fiend was a different kind."
"Fine, I'll do it."
"That's good of you to say. If it wasn't you would have been dragged in there."
Hide follows Hojo and Aura as they lead him to a room that seems to be quite far away from the other rooms.
As Aura and Hojo head to the second floor to observe Hide. Hide seems to be looking at a metal gate that seems to be shut tight.
The metal gate begins to slowly open. Inside it seems to be a fiend that is chained up in some chains with engravings on them.
It soon walks close to Hide. Coming out of the shadows trying to attack Hide. In doing so, it refrains itself when it sees Hide. It stood there dazed.
"Young master, it can't be. Is that you, Young master?" the fiend asked.
"Why are you calling me, Young Master?" Hide asked back.
The fiend somewhat loses its horn and somewhat changed to look like a human despite the hard scales could still be seen.
"Seems that the young master has lost his memory. Well, you were still young when all was lost into chaos. I'll try to help bring back your memory."
Hojo and Aura somewhat seems to be surprised and interested about Hide having a conversation with the fiend.
"Before we start off, I'm Jinbei, a loyal servant that was to serve you and your family. Young Master, before you were born. Your mother was the Queen of the Fiends. When you were born she hid away her fiendish looks from you.
"She wanted to raise you as a human and not as a fiend and wanted you to be like your father who is a human. While serving under your mother. She told us to hide away our fiendish looks as well.
"Although it was difficult to hide our fiendish looks. Some of us managed to do it while others couldn't. But we didn't let that stop us. Aside from that, your father didn't mind of you being raised up by fiends.
"He wanted your mother to be happy and you as well. You were the first half-breed of a fiend and a human. Along with that you were also born with the God's Eyes.
"At the age of five, you were in your mother arms sleeping. You woke up and saw her with her horns. She thought you would be afraid but you weren't. You were happy.
"I wish I could have save you when the mansion was destroyed. Along with what happened to your parents. But I was on a business trip that was given to me from your father."
Hide somewhat lost for words didn't know how to respond.
"I'm sure there is a lot to take in, but we'll help you back up again."
"Jinbei, how did my father met my mother?" Hide asked.
"Well, your father met your mother when he was passed out in the middle of the road. It was during the trip when your mother was going to Lissandra. She managed to stop and helped your father who was on the road."
"Were you there too Jinbei?"
"I was. I was one of your mom's guard. We were ordered to put your father into the carriage. When he came to, he saw your mother and fell in love. Later he learned what your mother was but didn't seem to be bother with it. I hate to say this young lord, but my time is short due to these chains."
"What do you mean?" Hide asked.
"These engravings on these chains are slowly dimming. Once they stopped glowing, I will be dead. I was captured and put in here."
"Jinbei, I met someone who maybe you might know. He seems to have these blades on his hands and sharp blades out of his back. Do you know him?"
"Hmm...it seems that you met Ji-San. The General of the Fiend Army and headmasters to the butlers and maids. I believe that now that he managed to find you. He will get you out of here."
"Young Lord, my time has come. Remember who that you are the heir to the throne. You are the last King to the Fiends."
Suddenly the chain's engraving stop glowing and soon Jinbei turns into particles vanishing from thin air.
Hide stood there to see the chains drop onto the ground and take in what Jinbei said. Aura and Hojo comes down from above.
"What did he said?" Hojo asked.
"It was rambling on about killing everyone and how the Fiend King will destroy the world." Hide answered.
"Well, the fiend is no more. But we did manage to gather valuable information. Thank you Hide, you may please go back to your cell for the entire day." As Aura seems to looking at her nails.
Hide leaves the room and heads back to his cell.
"This has been interesting lately."
"Indeed, no doubt that Hide is truly a magnificent subject."
"You think he is lying?" Aura asked.
"No, I believe about what he said."
Hide was inside his cell and looks up at the dim light from a small cracks. He reached out to the light with his left arm.
There was hope in his eyes. The world was starting to unravel itself to Hide.
