No.37 Inside the Cave
“Cause I am a ghost!”
At that moment when she shouted out,
a star that is green as an emerald started shining upon them.
The white flower also started shining like an angel,
releasing a transparent and clear white light.
The fires in the forest disappeared, being lit by the beautiful light.
“Ahhhhh!”
Suddenly, there was a scream ripping through the air.
When Arena looked back,
the dracula’s body was now starting to disappear.
A short later, that dracula disappeared, or in other words died,
and there was a black mantle left behind where he stood.
“Mrs.Marcia! And Mugi!”
Arena said aloud to herself,
stood up again, and ran into the forest.
“This is...Burble cave?”
Mrs. Malcia said, gazing in the deep dark hole in front of her.
“Mrs. Malcia! Where are you!”
But suddenly, there was a young high voice from the forest,
which she felt very adorable.
“I’m here, Arena!”
She said, to the voice, Arena.
Then Mrs. Marcia saw a small shadow running towards her
from the burned forest.
She started running as well by joy and happiness,
and hugged a girl with love…
But, Mrs. Marcia made a small scream of surprisement.
Her hands went through her,
as if Arena is not there, and she is transparent.
“Arena?”
Arena answered quietly, smiling.
“I’m a ghost.”
Mrs. Malcia opened her eyes white.
“What… what do you mean?”
“Ten years ago, in winter,
I tried to protect my cat from a dracula. But, well, I failed.
And that cat...Mugi, was taken by Dracula.
So I am now on a journey with you to take her back once again.”
“What?! Why didn’t you tell me earlier!”
“I expected you to scream being scared of the ghost,
which I was sick of.”
Mrs. Malcia held Arena’s hands softly.
“No way. You are no longer different to me than Arena.”
Arena smiled.
“Thank you”
And she looked up to the cave,
and shook off Mrs. Malcia’s hand.
“So now! We are going in”
“For that… I do not mind it anymore.”
Arena looked back surprisingly to Mrs. Malcia, who said calmly.
“What? Why?”
“I noticed.
That there are more things that are important than that ring.
And to add, I was almost even going to lose that as well.”
Arena shook her head.
“So you say that,
you will give this up after including all of your fellowship?
Drocy, Pixy, and me?”
Mrs. Malcia made a surprised face and said, smiling.”
“...You’re right. What a fool am I.”
Arena laughed too.
“And my cat has to be back too, okay! So we are going on!”
“Absolutely!”
Arena and Mrs. Malcia walked into the cave together.
That green star in the sky is now shining even brightly
than it was.
And in the far land away from them,
there was a fairy looking it up.
The story will continue!
