Doesn't Make You Right. (Ch. 8)

(Let's go back a bit!) Authors Note

"So, about that picture?" Asked Ella.

"It was a picture of our divine forms, not our human form, as you two are probably thinking..." Said Sam.

... Ella and Eve

"So then what do we do? If it's not a picture of us, we don't need to worry, do we?" Asked Eve.

"No, quite the opposite. To each person, they see a different thing. He may see divine beasts, but you two saw us as a family... Depending on the person's level of strength, that picture will change. So for average people, they will only see divine beasts, as they are unworthy of seeing our true forms, while they are taken from us. While stronger people can see through the illusion and see our true selves." Said Eric.

"What do you mean taken from us?" Asked Eve.

"Ahh. Um, that... In the old days and some remote cultures. There is a belief that if your picture is taken, your soul is trapped within, that's tru..." Said, Eric

"AHH!" Screamed Eve.

"Let me finish if a picture is taken without your permission. A small portion of your soul is trapped within it. Until that picture is destroyed, and when I mean small, think of it as a hair on your body, you lose some every day, and new ones grow every day. It is not going to affect you as you think. The only time it can be bad is if you attach extream importance to the image, constantly feeding it your soul to give it life." Said Eric.

"So, what are we going to do about this photo? I'm pretty sure that it was not the only one taken?" Asked Ella.

"You don't have to worry about that. As far as I can tell, is that each picture, if it is like that one, is riddled with misfortune. If we leave it alone, each group with that picture will die." Said, Trinity.

"Should we not warn them about it then?" Asked Ella.

"No, did you not hear what Eric said, they will hunt us down." Said Eve.

"Shh, keep your voices down, we are not that far away from that group lets keep moving, they also had weird looks when they saw us at first." Said Sam in a hushed voice.

"Sams, right, let's keep moving." Said Eric.

A few hours go by.

"Lets camp here for the night, Sam has been kinda odd ever since we left this morning I'm worried about her." Said Eve.

"Ok." Replied, Eric, and Ella.

A few hours go by. The family has a nice dinner laughing and chatting about what to do next. They also talked a little bit more about the pictures, and Umbra reassures them that it is not something to worry too much about, as even Trinity said that each picture is essentially cursed. Time goes on, and eventually, everyone goes to bed.

Eric gets out of bed and sneaks out of camp.

"Its time to get to work... System can you age me to my adult form." Siad Eric.

A few hours go by.

Two resounding roars resound throughout the area.

"RRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!~~~~~~~~"

Ella and Eve both shoot out of bed because one of those two roars was right outside of the tent.

In the middle of the camp, a beautiful white wolf-like none has ever seen before is standing in the middle of the camp staring off into space.

Both Ella and Eve pull out their weapons to prepare for a fight when suddenly a figure shoots out in front of them to stop them.

"Stop, stop, stop, that is Sam!" Trinity hurriedly shouted to stop them.

"That is Sam? How is that possible explain yourself bird!" Asked a vert angry Ella

"That is her divine form, and something must have happened to awaken her divine form, it is best not to get to close, she may have lost her reasoning." Said, Trinity.

"But that is my baby if she is like that it must mean something." Said a worried Eve.

Eve pushes past Trinity and heads towards the wolf.

"Eve be careful she is extremely powerful in that form, and if she kills you, Sam and Eric may lose it." Siad a worried Trinity.

"Don't worry, Trinity, we are pretty powerful ourselves." Said Ella.

"No, you don't understand, she can destroy this planet in that form with a simple sneeze!" Said Trinity with fear in her eyes.

Ella's eyes go wide, while Eve almost trips, but continues.

Before Eve can even get close to Sam, the wolf's head slowly turns to the left, startling Eve as she does not sense anything, then a black shadow shoots out and stops before the wolf.

After seeing this figure, both Eve and Ella blackout.

"Trinity, tuck them in, then go to bed yourself. I have it handled from here." Said Eric.

"~~~~~~~~ it is all right I am here for you." Said Eric as he leans in and hugs the wolf who starts to shake.

"It is not time for you to awaken yet, I will spend the night with you, but you must go back to sleep. After all, your body can't handle the strain just yet." Said Eric.

"I know, honey, but it does not make you right." Said ~~~~~~~~.

"I may not be right, but we got the whole night to ourselves, what would you like to do?" Said Eric.

"I... I would like you to pamper me..." Said a bashfull ~~~~~~~~.

"Haha, you want me to pamper you in this form, all right." Eric stretches out his hand and starts scratching behind the ears and under the jaw of this wolf, and the spot right on the neck that makes the leg go crazy.

"Stop, stop. That is not what I meant." Said ~~~~~~~~.

"Oh, so you want me to rub your belly?" Eric says as he rolls the wolf in its back and starts to scrats its belly.

"Stop playing around. You know what I meant." As ~~~~~~~~ says this she starts to turn into an adult version of Sam.

"I know. I just wanted you to relax. It has been a long time since we last spoke, and I have missed you greatly." Said Eric.

Eric leans forward and picks up ~~~~~~~~ in a princess carry and takes her back to the tent to "catch up with."

A long night goes by, and heartfelt feelings, are shared between Eric and ~~~~~~~~. It is early morning, and Eric is still in his adult form. He is currently flashing all about the camp cleaning up any mess that was left after last night umm... debauchery. After a while, he nods in satisfaction.

"Umbra!" Eric calls out.

"Yes, Master." Asked Umbra.

"I need to use some materials that we have gathered." Said Eric.

After a quick discussion with Umbra, Eric has a mess of food in front of him.

"I hope everyone gets along before I have to seal everything again... Welp first things first, let's get cooking. Umbra, grade the potatoes after washing them." Said Eric as he started to cook.

About an hour goes by before everything is all done and set.

"Trinity, can you help ~~~~~~~~ get dressed, then help my parents to wake up, please." Said Eric.

"Yes, Master." Replied Trinity.

"Umbra, help me finish up setting up the table, everyone is going to be joining us for breakfast for once." Said Eric.

"Are you sure about that, Master?" Asked a concerned Umbra.

"Yes, its time I introduce everyone to the parents before everything gets sealed again." Said Eric.

About thirty minutes go by, and various figures start to show up at the campsite while ~~~~~~~~, Ella, and Eve are getting dressed and are stunned at the exit of their little tents. Because in front of them is a large table that can easily fit one hundred people, with almost every seat filled.

First off, this table is odd, it is not square nor a circle, it has a variety of edges that sink in for each seat, and is circular-shaped but, with no center, but it does have an entrance to get into the center. Around the outsides of this table, there are precisely one hundred chairs, and around eighty-four people, of all different sizes and shapes. Only three of these people look the same as they were triplets, and these three are known as Excalibur, Excalibur prime, and Excalibur Umbra. There are various empty dishes on the outside next to each chair. On the inside of this table, there are just plates, upon plates of food stacked up making a grand view, to any who see it.

As ~~~~~~~~, Ella, and Eve snap out of their stupor, Eric stands up in front of the crowd.

"Ella, Eve, sorry to disturb our morning, but a very rare occasion has happened and probably won't happen again for quite some time. As you can see Sam, and I have appeared to age greatly. Under my calculations, our unsealing can only last for three more hours. As such, I wanted to introduce to you, everyone, as well as have a grand breakfast to litten then mood. EVERYONE WHO WAS ABLE TO BE PRESENT TODAY BOW TO MY HONORED PARENTS." Said Eric as she shouted towards the end.

Stomp, stomp, stomp, stomp, stomp.

"We great your holinesses, and thank you for taking care of our master, while we can not." Said the crowd of people in unison.

"Ella, Eve, these fine people are servents that have fallowed myself, and Sam since our last lifetime. I cant introduce you to all of them, but that will change as time goes on. The rare occasion that I am speaking of is that one hundred percent of Sam's and my strength and memories have been unlocked. I would also like to reintroduce Sam. This is my wife, Samantha also Eve's daughter Sam, however, ninety percent of her memories and mannerisms are sealed on a daily bases as it is too much for her body and mind to bear. In my case, about seventy percent is sealed, as my body can take the pressure, but my mind is consistently tested. The reason for this is actually because of instances like the picture. It was quite a big ordeal that I needed to mobilize all of our powerfully. Now everyone, before the food gets cold, let's eat!" Said Eric.

"Thank you, Master!" Replied most everyone.

Samantha slowly walks up to Eve, and in a very scared, and timid voice, voices out. "Mom~"

Eve feeling the pressure from this one word breaks into tears and tightly hugs her child.

Eric walks up to Ella, and in a guilt-ridden voice, asks for forgiveness. "Please forgive me for not showing proper respect sooner."

Ella looks at Eric, and pats his shoulder heartily, and says. "Everyone has their reasons for not speaking honestly. As I see it, you and your sister have been under a great burden that Eve and I can probably never understand the weight that falls on your shoulders. As we only have three hours, the way I see it is that we should enjoy the moment and get back to this matter when you two feel it is time."

A bit of time passes in a friendly and festive manner, where Ella and Eve meat the various, different people and express their thanks, of their own. Slowly everyone starts to leave, and only Eric and Samantha are left standing in front of Ella and Eve.

"Right now, we can not explain the details, but we will be sealing ourselves soon. Please take care of us, as you always have. The main reason why we are meeting now is because of my mistake. Slowly those people will join our journey, and as more people join, the more our memories and powers are unsealed. I can't say more, as it may harm you later on. Oh, there is one thing. Watch Sam a bit closer for the next three months. She might be...", Eric tried to say something else when.

WHACK.

"Ouch, why did you do that for?" Asked Eric as he held his head.

"Ignore him, Ella, Eve." Said a slightly red Samantha.

"Now seal us already. My body is starting to break down." Said Samantha as she looked down at her hands.

"Hehe alright then." Said Eric.

"Good-by, Ella, Eve, we hope to see you soon." Said, Eric, and Samantha.

After the two said this, a flash of light happens, and the various plates and the table disappear, as well as Eric and Samantha's body, start to glow and shrink at a visible rate.

Umbra and Trinity show up in front of Ella and Eve.

"Please do not mention what happened here today to Eric, or Sam, as it may hurt them in the future." Said Umbra.

Ella and Eve both nod.
