Chapter 54: Chapter 54

Walter P.O.V

"You mean......I have a......brother?" She asked with a trembling voice.

"Yes," I said and clasped my arm around her so that she could rest her head on my shoulder but instead, she stood up and glared at me.

"You are saying that I have a brother! Are you mad? How is this possible?!" She snapped with anger. Forgetting about what happened moments ago.

"Walter if this is a joke then I'm telling you I won't......." I interrupted, "I'm not joking."

She covered her mouth with her left hand with her eyes wide open. I stood up, jerked the mud from my pants, and started to walk towards the lake.

"Walter?" She called my name. When I didn't respond, she walked towards me and stood beside me.

I looked at the lake, so peaceful but only a little pebble was enough to destroy that peace in it. That happened 20 years ago when everything was peaceful but a vampire destroyed everything. She killed my Father, Mother but gladly my sister got saved. I was just a kid of 4 years old and unable to do anything at that time.

I only remembered that the old master had hidden me in a safe zone and when everything ended, he announced me the son of one of the guardians. He didn't want anyone to know about my identity. He used a spell to forget the crystal world about me. To forget about the prince of the crystal world.

'Annabella, I won't let you die so easily. I had promised my mother. You have to pay for this.'

"Princess, your brother really loves you." I smiled and looked at her. She was my only family. My little sister, I won't let anything happen to her. She was staring at the sky with so many thoughts. She loved the night sky just like my mother, just like our mother.

When first I saw her in the crystal world. Peter unconscious her with his spell and she was about to kiss the floor when I held her. Right that moment, I felt that she was my sister. There was an unexplainable bounding like blood bounding which told me that she was my sister. Her eyes were as same as our mother's eyes, bright blue and sparkling.

I followed her gaze and looked at the sky which was lightly illuminating with stars.

"There are so many stars in the universe. I'm not talking about the sky, and there is more than one moon on my planets like Jupiter had 70 plus moons but there is only one moon on earth. Do you know why?" I asked her the only thing which I had remembered about Mom besides her blue eyes. She often asked me that.

She looked at me and thought 'Because our solar system has given only one moon to earth.' I smiled at her thought. That was what I always said to mom.

"Because the moon of our earth is different and unique, it's special, only one of its kind." I said and looked at her. She was smiling. I added, "Be a moon not a star, unique and only one."

"Yeah, you are right." She said and added, "My big brother!" She smiled widely and I looked at her with wide eyes.

"Don't forget. I am your sister." She winked and dusted invisible dust off her shoulder. I laughed. Of course telepathy.

"I still need time to believe that you are my brother." She said with a soft smile. I knew it was hard to believe.

'Let's change the topic.'

I looked behind her. It seemed like she lost control of her power in anger or maybe in confusion and that caused the mess of pyrokinesis. She needed to control her power otherwise it might cause more harm. She could have burned herself. She had to take proper control over her powers.

"Why did you say no?" I asked, referring to Veward proposal. She looked at me with knitted brows.

"Come on! Don't tell me any stupid reason." I glared at her.

"You think I'm stupid." She asked with such a polite tone and I estimated the coming storm.

"I didn't say that." I put my hands up in defeat. She clenched her jaw tight. I could sense the burning of her eyes.

"Thank you Mr. Newly found brother. I know that I'm the most stupid girl in both worlds, right? This is stupidity that I wanted to protect him. I'm a living danger for the people around me and I don't even know who the heck is that blue-eyed guy. You're right, I am stupid. Because I am afraid. In other words, the people who ever loved me are buried under the mud, they are dead right now! Anna, Allessandro, Mia, even my real mother." She yelled in one breath and when she finished, she was lost of breath and I was stunned by her reaction and anger.

"I don't want to lose him." She whispered and disappeared.

I sighed and again looked back at the lake.

"So you really lose control in anger but you've learned the use of your powers." I weakly smiled.

I had to do something about Veward. He had seen using her powers. With that thought, I teleported towards the spot where he had parked the car.

I reached there and was stunned to look at the view. The car was still standing there and he was inside. His head was dropped on the steering wheel. I knocked on the window and he looked up. He looked tired.

"We need to talk."

*************

The sun was shining dimly under the fog and clouds. It was not so early hours. The road was busy with humans and their traveling vehicles. I was sitting with a not-so-dumb person in the outside area of the cafeteria. we both had coffee in front of us.

It took the whole damn night to tell him everything. Yeah, I told him the tale of the crystal world and the connection of Marie. Everything with detail. I didn't know if it was a good idea or not, I only know one thing that he should have known. If he was willing to really spend his life sincerely with Marie and promised me to always took care of her. Then......

Of course, she was my only family, and my little sister and I wanted the best of best for her. Anyhow, I still didn't properly appreciate him but Marie loves him.

Now, he was sitting silently in front of me and staring at his hot coffee which already became cold. His mind was in a thinking marathon. I couldn't make out his thoughts at a time.

"What? Why are you in silent mode?" I asked irritatedly. I wanted a reaction after the story and he became a statue, showing his skills of remaining silent.

"That mysterious masked savior. Who is he?" He finally spoke and asked the still unsolved answer.

"Not he. She." I corrected him and shrugged.

"That person is a girl." He asked with shocked expressions as he moved forward in an active sitting posture and suddenly becoming excited. I nodded. There was a smile appeared on his lips.

"Why this for?" I asked confused and raised my eyebrow. He shook his head with the same smile. Well, he didn't do any reaction as I accepted like scared and confused with lots of questions instead he asked about the masked savior opposite to my acceptance.

"You both are impossible!" I stated and he ignored me.

"So, she is afraid of my protection. That's why she did that to scare me." He talked normally.

What? I looked at him for a good five minutes when I finally asked,

"You're not afraid of her. She is not normal."

He should show something about it. It wasn't a small thing. She was immortal, not human and he was sitting here calmly and chatting.

He looked at me and smiled. After placing the bill inside the menu on the table, he stood up and walked towards the car. I followed him.

"Have you ever love someone?" He asked and sat on the car bonnet.

"Have you ever had someone so pure in your life that just being around them automatically makes you feel a million times better?" He asked and I looked at him. While Bell's face appeared in front of my eyes.

"It doesn't matter who is she and what is she? I love her from all my heart. I'm not saying typical novel lines. I really do love her and.." He jumped down. "I need to find that blue-eyed guy. Then we think about that vampire whatever her name is."

"Annabella," I told him.

"Which one? Creature or comes home?" He said and burst into laughter while I just stared at him, probably confused.

Was that a joke?

"Do you know anything else besides blue eyes and tattoo?" I asked when I didn't found the reason for his laughter. He stopped laughing and looked at me.

"You've blue eyes." He said in a serious tone.

"You too,"

"But we both know we are not that person," I said and he raised his left eyebrows perfectly.

"I don't know." He said and added, "Should I trust you?"

"She is my sister you dumbhead," I said annoyed.

"You are dumbhead." He growled with a pointed finger. I looked at his finger then back at his face and we both burst into laughter.

At that moment I was confident that I could trust him with my sister. He was the best idiot!

'Walter, in the crystal world, right now! It's urgent.' I heard Peter's voice in my head.

"I need to go! I'll catch you later." I said and moved inside the car to teleport myself back to my world. He looked at me confused but didn't ask anything.

"Where is Princess?" Peter asked. I entered the conference hall where everyone had already presented and looking worried.

"What happened?" I asked, looking at their worried faces.

"I was reading The Key and I get to know about everyone's weakness," Mike stated as if he got Annabella's weakness. Wait.....

"Tell me you have found Annabella's weakness," I said with excitement jumping in my body which he ruined in a second by saying,

"No! Princess doesn't have Neogenesis."
