At Xeegam’s house, Sheena; his wife; tells something to him.

“Xeegam, when I take the baby to bath, I found this pendant on his neck.”, she continues, “After I check it out, there’s a name engraved on it; look… Freymold Reinhart. Might it be his name?”

Xeegam takes the necklace and he looks at it.

“Yes, I think it’s his name. What a nice necklace, made from forseranol and forged carefully”

Knock…knock… There’s someone knocks on the door.

“Who might it be?”, Sheena walks to the door and opens it, “Oh Syack, it’s U. Come… Can I help you with something?”

“I’m sorry to disturb”, Syack replies

“Ow, it’s okay. Please come in. Xeegam is inside his room with the baby. Just go there and I’ll make some tea. Please…”, Sheena directs him to the room she mentioned before.

“Good night, Syack. What brings you here?”, Xeegam opens some conversation with Syack

“Nite, Xee. Uhm, look… This’ about that baby…. I think… I want to…”, Syack hesitated on his words

“About Frey? Why?”

“I… Uhm, can I adopt him?”

“Hmm… Why so sudden, Syack? What’s the reason?”

“Just to be honest to you, I’m so lonely after… You know… After my wife and my son died when she tried to give birth. I hope with that baby in my house, I can cure my loneliness. Really, I’ll take a good care of him, I promise..”

“Yes, yes… I know it’s a hard time for you… But, are you really serious?”

“Of course! I’ll take care of him as my son!”, syack is so enthusiast

“Hmm… Okay Syack, but keep your promise, OK?”

“Xee, you want to hand Frey over to Syack? Why? Why don’t we take the responsibilities of him?”, Sheena comes from the kitchen holding a tray with teapot on it. She looks so sad to hear that. And Xeegam tries to talk to her

“Sheena, Syack wants to look after Frey, he’s so lonely. I think with Frey in his house, he can be cheered. Don’t be sad…”, Xeegam tries to cheer her

“But….”, Sheena is sobbing

“I..I’m sorry Sheena. But if you want to help me to look after him, you can come to my house. Besides, I think that’s better with two than one; and I think I need to learn from you how to take care a baby.”, Syack try to comfort Sheena

“Is that okay with you Syack? Xee, can I have that part? Can I?”, Sheena turns his face

“Yes dear, you may do so…”, Xeegam holds her and comforts her then he talks to Syack, “But, Syack… I want Frey to be here tonight. I’ll take him to your house tomorrow morning. Is it okay?”

“That’s more that okay for me. That’s perfect! Thanks Xee, Sheena. I’ll go home now and prepare the room for him. Good night!”, Syack looks so happy and goes home without drinks the tea.

Before sleeping, Xee and Sheena looks at that baby, try to understand his condition

“Xee, look at him. What a handsome kid… He’s lika an angel when he’s sleeping. Poor to know that he doesn’t have any family anymore…”

“You can’t have the reality on your arms. Sad, happy, life, death… It’s not our parts. I believe what we can do is living the day and setting the future. And I believe that there’s something big upon his future life. Eh, it’s really late now and I’m so tired. Why don’t we sleep?”, Xee turns his body outside, but Sheena’s still looking at Frey.

“Oh, my God. This poor little baby was left by his mother. What are we going to do with him? Hmm…”, Xeegam thinks it over, “First, we have to make a tomb on top of the southern hill. Make sure the tomb was facing to the sea.”

“Okay, Chief!”, said Neill as he urged to do so.

“Who’s his name, Rico?”, Xee asked.

“I heard his mom called him Frey”

“Hmm… Okay, his name shall be Frey. Frey is enough…”, Xee added his speech.

On the next morning, Xeegam, Rico, Neill, and some of the villager symphatize that poor little baby come to have some funeral ceremony on the empty tomb. Even it was empty, Xee and the other still pray for Frey’s mother.

“Let ash be ash and the soul of Mod backs to the sea of Le Modia’s life”

After saying that words, Xee throws the Glearin, flower of life,to the sea from the hillside; followed by the others. They put the flowers on the tomb as well before they head back to Clone.

The wind has changed. It calms and comforts the whole Le Mod.

At the sea side of Clone Village…..

“Rico, hurry up! It’s a nice day! Last night’s storm surely wipe the fish over this edge”, shout Neill as he runs to their boat.

“Okay, okay… What a spirit you have today!”, Rico replies in a low tone, then he helps Neill to undock the boat and starts their job. When Rico on his act of spreading his web, he heard some voice. Some vague voice….

“Rico? Rico? Rico?! What’s up pal? A serious face you have right now…”, ask Neill.

“sstt… Do you hear that?”, said Rico as he starts to look over the place.

“What? I don’t hear anything…”, Neill is trying to hear that voice.

“There is a voice. Baby crying voice… From that direction!”

“What? O yeah! I hear it too!”

“Let’s go there and take a look…”, Rico asks Neill to accompany him.

They start to paddling to the location and when they arrived at the location, they were shocked seeing a woman holds wooden board on her left arm and a child on her right. The child’s voice which brings them to her.

“Rico!! There is someone over here!”

“Yeah, I see them too! Let’s go and help!”, Rico starts to paddle the boat. When it’s near, Rico jumps over his boat and
swims directly to them. Rico holds the baby and tries to keep it out of the water. The person who floats nods and shocks Rico. “Oh God, She’s a woman!”, says Rico unspoken. She holds his left arm and speaks trembling: “My Baby…”

“It’s okay, mam. He’s safe now. Just hang in there for a second. I’ll come back to catch you on.”, Rico replies her but she doesn’t seem to notice what Rico says, she just stares at her baby.

“Frey, I’m sorry…”, she looks at Rico and says: “Please~~~ Take care of him…. Take care of Frey…”

“Hey, hang on there! I’ll come back as soon as possible!”, Rico says with panic. “Her lip is darkened. Must hurry…”

Rico swims so fast to the boat and hand it over to Neill who asks him why he is so long in that cold water but Rico doesn’t reply. He swims back to that woman, but he can’t see her anywhere.

“Neill, where is she?! I can’t find her!”

“What?! I see her there just a minute ago! I’ll go nearer!”, Neill tries to reach the area.

“I can’t see her, Neill! Or….”, says Rico frightened and he starts to dive. He sees the body of that woman goes deeper and darker… He knows that he can’t do anything so he comes to the surface.

“She drowned…”, says Rico as he gets on the boat.

“So, what about this baby? He’s crying all the time.”, Neill tries to calm the baby.

“Let’s take him to the village and tell Chief the situation”, advises Rico.

And they sail back to the beachside, take the innocent baby to Chief Xeegam; the leader of the village and tell the whole story. He emphasises the baby…

Meanwhile at the beach…

On the boat, Iriana could see her house was in flame. She stared at it with an empty look… Frey, the last offspring, started to cry.

“Mom, he’s going to be okay, isn’t he?”, asked Luvillas, the eldest one.

“Yeah, He’ll catch us up, won’t he?”, Lorin added her brother’s question.

“Yes, Luvillas, Lorin. Your father is going to be okay. He’ll……”, Iriana replied but before completing her subject, she heard a painful scream from the seaside of Fluvia.

“Dario!!!”, Iriana screamed inside her heart but she told her heart to calm down to comforte her children.

In a sudden, the boat was wobly and DP showed up before their fore eyes.

“Khuku..khu…. Do you think that you are safe already, huh? Not so easy.”, he spoke to her senseless.

“I won’t let you hurting my children, you… a damn bastard…”, Iriana said it in anger while she tried to keep her children on her back and kept Frey on her hand.

“Hmm… the children of Nommus.. khukukhu…. for my research… I’ll make it usefull… khukukhu…”, said DP without noticing Iriana’s anger. He extended his hand over Iriana and easily he took the children from Iriana. Both Luvillas and Lorin shook their body, struggled, and screamed for help.

“Luvillas!! Lorin!! Hand them back to me!!”, she told him angrily and chased over him trying to reach over them, but easily DP hit her. When she was on the ground, she could tell herself that she had lost her children.

“Just thanks to me for not killing you and your baby now! Let the world which you adore kill you slowly. Hahahaha…”, so he dissapeared from Iriana’s sight with his laugh echoing.

The sky is full of dark cloud, the wind is blowing so hard making the sea flushing heavily, the storm is coming up. Iriana’s boat is shaking as her heart because  what’s important to her was taken away from her. Only Frey that she had now. Frey was crying and that cries of him suddenly made Iriana’s life force even stronger. The life force to protect him, the life force to look after him. Slowly but sure, the boat is dissapeared within the storm.

Chapter II – MEMORY OF THE PAST

Twenty years ago, back in Fluvia Village….

“Iriana, just go!! I’ll take care of this. Go through the back door…. Hurry!!”, told Dario.
“No, I’ll help you!”, she denied him.

“Don’t be stupid! Think about our children, how about them if you are not around! Just hurry!! GO…!!!!!”

“Dario, you must promise me that you’ll live”, she sobbed with scare and pain, them she run through the back door with her children headed to the beach.

BRAK!!! The door was opened by force.

“Hmph… Hahaha.. HAHAHA!!! Finally, I’ve found the last Nommus! It’s hard to find you, you know? I think it’s wise of you if you’ve showed up before I ruined this village just to find you. But thank’s to that, I’ve found a lot of interesting stuff here.. HAHAHA!!!!”, the sounds of that person was covered by his mask and his cape; dark black cape filled by suffer and pain.

“The news is true then…”, Dario whispered, “Dark Phanatom is back.”

“Seems that you had some aura sphere covered this area. No doubt that it’s hard to find you. Now, prepare you, Noir!!!”

“Beige”, Dario striked back with his sharp wind knife sphere and it hurts DP a little.

“Oh, yeah… I forgot that people who can created this shelter had a stong spirit, you must have trouble my men. It’s okay… I have more excitement facing an opponent like you. Unfortunately, you must suffered the death. I offer you all this mighty, wealth, and power if you want to obey me, hail me as your Lord, and bow down in front of me!”

“Just take your dreamday stuff! I won’t be your weakling!”, brave Dario replied.

“You’ll be sorry for saying that….”, with his speech, a spherical dark aura was settled on his hand, “Void of Darkness!”

“‘Light Spear!”, Dario tried to make some attack.

BRAK! Dario bumped out of the house. His power is weakened so he had some wounds on his chest and knee, but he could stand over and over.

“What a tough guy you are….”

“I won’t be easily beaten by you…”, said Dario with a sharp-looking face

For some time, DP seemed to be shocked with that look, making him thinking: “Human, what a pity…”

Yet he said, “The one like you will interfere my ambition…. GO FOR HIM!!!”
