The Special Card!

" Here is your omelette , Uncle Chen " Shelly said teasingly while serving the omelette to Chen.

Chen who was around the same age as Shelly blushed while glancing between his omelette and shelly and mumbled " I am not your Uncle " .

" Hahahahaha hahahahaha " Shelly burst out in laughter as Chen said that. Her laugh was so mesmerizing and attractive that Chen couldn't help staring at her and without him noticing, his mouth moved, his lips moved and he muttered unconsciously , " A goddess ". Chen, thinking that he was muttering to himself heard his own voice and was dumbfounded even more. Cause if he could hear it so clearly in a restaurant with only three people then rin and shelly must have heard it clearly too .

When shelly heard it, her laughter stopped and she put her hands on the table, brought her face closer to Chens face and whispered in his ear, " Did you like it that much ? if u want I can laugh like this for you everyday " which proceeded with a 'wink' from shelly, and Chen looked like as if his body had lost its soul.

Rin was grinning while looking at Shelly flirting with Chen and the embarrassed Chen. Time passed as shelly kept on teasing chen and chen eating his food while looking like a fresh tomato recently farmed. Soon Chen finished his food and paid for his meal.

As shelly and rin were accompanying chen to the door after chen was done eating his food and paid for his food , he stopped in front of Rin and looked into her eyes. Rin who was confused by Chens action thought that chen wanted to say something to her and asked , " Is something the matter Uncle Chen ? ".

Chen replied, " Rin, Do you wish for something ? ". Rin who was in a daze after hearing chens unexpected question went in a deep state of thinking when she suddenly remembered her talk with Azraeel. Rin replied to chen," Uncle chen, i only have one wish . I want to get stronger. Strong enough to protect my life, ", Rin stopped and looked at shelly and thought of her crush Jin who had promised to meet her again and continued, " I want to be so strong that i won't have to be away from my family and my loved ones. So my family won't have to be sad like you Uncle chen." Rin said that, looked down and continued again " but that would be impossible for me. This is just my wishful thinking, Uncle chen you can ignore it ".

After hearing the answer from rin and knowing her wish, Chens eyes were shining like a torch. He grabbed rins shoulder and told her , "Rin i don't know about anyone else but if it's you, you can accomplish your wish. It is very possible for you. You can become as strong as you want " As rin felt the warmth from Chens hands and his encouraging words which were filled with the trust in her as if Chen had seen the future.

Rin didn't even know when she was already smiling and started believing his words. She thought how nice it would be if what her Uncle said would come true. As Chen saw the smile on Rins face, he told rin "i will take that smile as you also believe in what i said. You must know that i never lie. And you must know that even my brother would come to get advices from me even though he was known as a genius who are only seen once in a million year . And you will be glad to know... ". Rin nodded her head as Uncle chen kept on rambling on and on. While shelly and rin were listening to Uncle chens "wise words", someone was looking at the three talking and laughing with each other from a building roof three streets away.

The someone in question was the super famous idol of Moonkids,Jin. Jin who was so handsome that his handsomeness could only be explained as if statue of a man carved by a master craftsman who used the Worlds most beautiful gem to carve each and every part of him, was looking at the three of them with such intense eyes that if he could he would join them right away. Jin kept on looking at them while chen was getting ready to leave.

Chen before leaving passed a card to rin and said to her, " Rin think of me as your own uncle and since you have told me your wish i will do my best to help you fulfill it ". Chen took a deep breath and continued, " The card i have given you is a special card, it may be blank now but when the time is right it will show you something special, so be patient".

Chen took his leave after saying that and taking a last glance at shelly who had already went back into the kitchen to get ready for the lunch time. As Rin followed the leaving chen with her gaze.

She shifted her sight to the card that Chen had given her. As Chen had said, the card was really blank which made rin even more troubled as if ' How could a blank card be special . And how could her wish be completed through this blank card. '. While rin was in her thoughts, Jin who was spying on them from the building roof also left when chen left.

After chen left, the atmosphere of the restaurant returned back to normal. As rin expected today there weren't many customers as everyone was preparing to welcome the new year with their families. Around 17:17 Rin left the restaurant and was on her way back to her home. Though rin didn't go to her home directly as it was the last day of the year, she wanted to have some fun around the city. So she decided to go around different food stalls and enjoy the exquisite cuisine alone that everyone was enjoying with their families.

Time flowed and as it was already 23:50, rin was returning back to her place. On her way home, the same road where her accident had occurred last night , jar'ne that road was long and empty as if someone went there and took everyone with him. The place which at least had one , two or at least a few people walking on the sideways was empty tonight. Rin who wasn't scared but it wasn't possible for her not to freak out.

Though everything changed when the snow started falling. Rin who was bewitched by the beautiful white kept on walking without any other thought. She kept on walking and walking with her hands in her Jacket. She was unconsciously holding the card which her uncle had given him and unknowingly the cards started to get hotter and its warmth was felt by rin so she took it out. " What's going on with this now ? " As she took out the card, the card had a golden glow on it. Soon the golden glow changed into golden light which made rin drop it as the golden light was otherworldly.

She had never seen such a thing happen before. The light carved itself on the card. Rin picked it up as the glow coming out of the card ended . The card had two circles carved on it which looked like rings . Both the circles had royal golden color . The bigger ring had mythical beasts such as Dragons, Griffins and Rocs carved on it. The carvings was as real as if these creatures were alive and breathing. While the small ring had Angels and Demons Carved on each side. These Angels and Demons carvings weren't any less than the bigger rings carvings.

While rin was looking at them and wondering who could have such skills to carve these beasts and an angle-demon on these rings when she heard a familiar voice from behind her. " Its time Rin " rin turned around to confirm as the voice belonged to Uncle Chen.

Rin asked after confirming that its Chen who spoke to her now " time for what uncle chen?". Chen instead of replying pointed to the card in rins hand. Rin looked at the card, right then the ring with Dragons, griffins and Rocs suddenly disappeared and appeared in front of her on the snowy road, just that the ring started growing while the hole in the ring was filled with colors shaping around each other like a door.

When the growth of the ring stopped,a multicolored passage appeared between the giant ring, Chen pointed at the passage and spoke to Rin, "This is the door of malza, also known as malzador. Passing through this door will help you achieve your dream. But for that you will have to change yourself. So are you ready to change? ".

Even though everything happening around rin was strangely new for rin, especially the door opening within a ring that expanded to an enormous size from a bean size ring and more than that the name of the door sounded even more weird than what just had happened but she still nodded confidently and looked at Chen before saying "Yes Uncle chen i am ready".
