A girl that has fair-pale skin and bright pink eyes. Her hair is about waist length with very wild, messy bangs framing her face while her hair looks to be worn down, but in a very thick/big braid held with a pastel pink frilled ribbon.

She wears an odd outfit, consisting of a very loose powder blue top with a frilled neck segment with a bright pink-purple bow and a long white segment in the center held with a white multi-piece belt with a purple piece in the center. At the top on the sleeve sides are pink cloth segments with ruffled white lining and a single white stripe on each piece. Her dress has small sleeves with button-clasp, making it look like a shirt pair of overalls. On each sleeve is a peach and white line, while the sleeves cuff buttons to the upper segment of sleeve, most likely to keep them from being too long. She also wears an uneven length white skirt piece that looks longer in back, and opened in the middle. Under her skirt, she wears white panties with a pink bear printed on the back. Along with pink and white striped socks and pink bear shaped fuzzy slippers. She looks dressed for bedtime.

The girl walked around Sindria, tried and sleepy. Yunan sent her saying that this were she would met someone, well make that two important people in her life. Two blood relatives. She grew up believing she had none. She yawns and accidently bumps into someone.

"Are you alright?"

She looks up and sees its a woman with short pink hair up to her ear, long bangs on the sides of her face. A jewel eye patch with a lotus blossom design. On her shoulder was a small fairy.
"No, it's alright. (Yawns) I'm looking for two family members of mine." The girls said.
The woman chuckled and the fairy gently fly's in front of her. When she saw her, a strange feeling filled her. She felt like she met the fairy before.
"You can stay with us for right now. We'll help you find your family." The fairy smiles warmly at her like a mother.
The girl smiles and nods.

They walked to the palace and Kimi and Belanova chatted with the girl. She was the same age as Aladdin and was a kind hearted girl.

It's been two months since Kimi came back to Sindria and a month since she and Sinbad got married and she is now the Queen of Sindria. Sleepless nights, it happens every damn day. The man won't let her go and both stay awake pretty much all night thanks to him.
"Damn sex beast...ouch." Kimi grumbles as she lightly rubbed the side of her hips.
"So what's your name?" Belanova asked.
"I'm Erika. Nice to meet you Kimi and and....?" The girl now know as Erika said with a smile.
Belanova froze.
"It can't be......I....I...thought I lost her..." Belanova began to cry all of a sudden.
Kimi panicked and they all sat down on a bench.
"Is something wrong miss?" Erika asked her.
Belanova knew now was not the right time to tell her.
"Yes, don't worry about it." She said before she smiles, "By any chance, do you know a boy by the name Aladdin?" Bela said and Erika grins.
"Chibi Chibi!!! He an I were raised in a ffffaaaaaaarrrrr away place together. It's be so long since I seen Chibi Chibi!!" Erika spun around happily.
Kimi giggled and notice the Rukh around her. She confirmed it. Erika is a Magi.
"Let's go to the palace. And I'm Kimi, nice to meet you Erika. And this here is Iris." Kimi smiles warmly.
Erika grins and they headed to the palace.

Sinbad was tried from all the paper work he recently just gotten. He then groans as he read a letter from the Kou Empire. The First Prince wants him to send either....his wife, Aladdin or Alibaba as ambassadors. He glares at the paper. No way will he sending his wife. He sighs and placed it down. He looked over at a framed picture of his wedding day. Kimi dress in a beautiful white dress and him in royal sindrian wedding clothing. He chuckled at the memory of the festival and when she threw the bouquet of flowers in the air, the one that caught it was Oregami.

He remembers Ja'far's flustered face and him and the other men smirking at him. Ah, the joy of teasing him which resulted in all of then running from his wrath. Sinbad finished the rest of the papers and went to stand near the window. He looked outside and looked puzzled. It was Kimi but who was the little girl that she was talking with. He decided to go see them. As he walked down the hallways of the palace he saw Natsumi working with Yamraiha. Must be a magic experiment again.

Aladdin, Alibaba, and Morgiana were out resting. Each one tried from their Master's lessons. Kane is being trained by Spartos, Silver with Drakon, and Kanna by Hinahoho, and Crow with Pisti and Ja'far. Shemi was under training in healing with Natsumi. She wants to become stronger so she can thank Kimi and Kane for their hospitality. Each one sighs and looks up to the sky.
"I'm so tried. Mama been busy with so much work now that she is queen. I'm sure Papa is tried also. Sigh....." Kanna said as she drank water.
Crow looked over at his sister, thinking of the conversation his mother and her two friends had about a month ago. It was private discussion but he used his household to stay undetected.

"Listen, for us to be ready for the war that is to come, I believe it would be better if went out separate ways."Kimi said.
"What?!" Caria and Alphonse screech.
"Listen before you come after my head. I want to stop the war. One, so my brothers is not be banished and two, to stop Hakuryuu from falling into depravity." Kimi said as she took out an eye of rukh.
"So basically...." Alphonse began, "To make sure neither side wins and to stop Sinbad's and Arba's plan. I like it." Caria smirked.
Kimi grins.

"Exactly. So that's why foe these next 5 months, we'll go train. Alphonse, you return back to Reim, and Caria, you back to Kina. As for me, I'll train here."

Erika spotted a familiar blue head and quietly like a cat, tiptoed behind him.
"Chibi Chibi!!" And she pounced from him from behind.
His head quickly whipped and down the two went tumbling down the hill.
"Aladdin!" The others yelled and ran down after them.
Once they stopped rolling, blue eyes met pink. He recognize them anywhere.
"Erika!" Aladdin grins and hugs her.
"Aladdin.......you....you...." the shadows covered her eyes and she clenched her fist.
He looked at her confused and answers with "eh?"
"YOU IDIOT!!!!!" And she punched him and sent him flying towards the water fountain.
The boys paled while the girls sweat drop. Aladdin came out of the water gasping for air. He got out, and his cheek was red. Erika ran to him and began to punch him the chest.
"You jerk, you idiot! Baka,baka,Baka,baka! Sniff....Uuuuuuuuuuhhhhh!!!!!! How could you leave me behind?! Why didn't you look for me when we got separated at Amon's dungeon?! You said we always be together! You big meanie!!! Wwhhhhhhaaaaaa!!!!" She began to hit him with her plushy.
Aladdin expression turned to sadness.
"Do you have any idea how much I kept looking for you?!" She cried and stopped punching him.
She buried her face in his chest as she hugged him tightly. She didn't care if her clothing got wet.
"I missed you......I'm so glad you're alright...sniff...." she held him tightly, afraid to let go.
He smiles sadly and hugs her back.
"I missed you two Pluti." He grins at her.
She puffed her cheeks at him.
"I told you to stop calling me that nickname!" She glared at him.
"Never." He deadpanned and she began to pinch his cheeks.
"Damn you Chibi Chibi!" She said and he began to pull hers.
" anw Iwsh tolsh yous to stopsh calling mesh that!( And I told you to stop calling me that!)" Aladdin said back.
"Newber!(never!)" She said back.
Belanova giggled and flew in between the two.
"Now now you two," she turns to each of them, "be nice. Or am I going to have to make you two run laps around the palace?" And the two immediately stopped.

Kimi smiles and said she has work to do. She walked down the hallway and to her office. There Ka Koubun brought her a pile of paper work that needed to be done. She groans but grabs the first one and begins working.
"You've been doing your work and everything your highness. Please don't over work yourself like a few days ago." Ka Koubun said.
"Don't worry about it Ka Koubun, I'll be alright. After I finished the other two piles, I'll get some rest. Besides, I have training later." Kimi said as he watched her signing papers.
"Alright. But please watch yourself. I know how you get." Ka Koubun smiles at her.
She nodded and watched him leave to head back to his office to do his work. He's her Viser. Once he was gone, she continued doing work for another hour.

"Don't push yourself to hard."

She looked up and saw Solomon looking down at her with his legs cross, and his cheek resting on his hand.
"I know. But you can also blame Sinbad for keeping me up at night." She huffed.
His eyes narrowed at the mention of her husband. He watched her continue her work.

"Did you ever speak to Ithan or Falan?"

Her pen stopped moving. She stayed silent.
"No. I chose not to." She said and continued writing.
He stayed silent.
"Would you like to learn their magic?" He said.
And all that was heard was the sound of her pen dropping in the room. She looked at him shocked. Can't the woman get a break?! She already has enough with learning his, her parents magic!
"I already have enough with what you are teaching me! And why would I want to learn their magic?!" She screeched.
Solomon chuckled and ruffles get hair.
"Do you remember that blood curse that infected Alibaba and Sinbad?" He said.
"Please don't remind me, I left after it happened." Kimi looked down to the ground, guilty.
"Why not try to create a cure for it? Instead of using magic to cure it, why not create an antidote?" He said.
Sparkles came in her eyes.
"Also," his face turned serious, "it's almost time for you to inherit the power of the seer of the Solar and Lunar eclipse. You need to master the powers of us, the Great Sinner's of Alma Toran, and the mysterious power your mother possessed. David was after it. Even I don't know why, but my guess it also had something to do with your ability to destroy destiny." He said to her.
Kimi stayed silent. To destroy destiny....is this what Sheba ment...no...it can't be that....she shook off the feeling.
"Bela was the Seer of The Eclipse. Every one hundred years, the seer would preform a ritual in the Temple of Dragon. It is said that the ritual was to keep the dragon from devouring the sun. Only the seers of the past knew the true purpose. Unfortunately, Belanova didn't know what it was when she was chosen to inherit that power." He sighs.
Kimi stayed silent.
"What about Sheba? Why wasn't she chosen? Or is it something passed down through her family?" She asked.
Solomon looked at and then to the window. He saw his sister playing with his son. Belanova laughing and watching over the kids. All of them having fun.
"I don't know. But both girls....never talked much about there family." He frowned.
Kimi stood up and looked out the window. She knew Solomon's family background, Sinbad's, almost everyone. But.....she never knew Sheba's and her sister's. Nor, the goddesses background. Guilt hit her.

She heard a few knocks on her door, and Solomon disappears back to his crown.
"Come in." She said softly.
She smiles when she sees it is Sinbad.
"Hey, are you alright? You look like your about to pass out." He closed the door and walked over to her.
"I'm alright dear. Just tried that's all." She gives him a all smile.
He looked at her worried and hugged her.
"Don't stress yourself too much. How about you go and rest, and I'll finish your work?" He said.
Kimi vision was getting hazy and she was seeing multiple Sinbads. He notices her eyes were out of focus and she went limp in his arms.

"Kimi!"

- Infirmary -

"Good thing you brought her. She was running a fever. It's low, but I'm still giving you medicine." Natsumi said.
Kimi sighs as she sat in the bed. Sinbad went to his office to finish both his and hers paperwork. Natsumi turned back to her and handed her a green pill and a glass of water.
"Lady Kimi, please watch your health from now on." Shemi said.
Caria and Alphonse were both glaring at their friend from the eye of rukh. Kimi shrunk away.
"I hope you been eating right. I'm not about to have another "pass out in the middle of the ocean again."Caria said.
"And not another not eating habbit. When you over work yourself, you completely forget to eat. Last time you forgot to eat for two weeks!" Alphonse scolded her.
She sulked. Honestly, their over protective of her. But who can blame them? She has a bad habbit of forgetting to eat. Natsumi shook her head.
"Did you make sure to check if she was pregnant?!" Caria grins, which earned a smack on the head from her older brother, that so happened to be passing by.
Caria glared at Yamato and she turned back to the eyes of rukh, with Kimi with a a face that screamed "hell no."
"Yeah no. Kimi is not ready to be a mother." Alphonse said with a deadpanned face.
He just snuck off from another meeting and he's running away from Muu. He caught both his bother and Muruko making out behind a pillar in the hallway, and took a picture. The two girls can hear his funeral.

Kimi sighs and flopped down on the bed, and grabbed a plow and covered her face. Even Ka Koubun and Ja'far agreed that she needs to take care of herself better and those two NEVER agree on anything. She sighs and takes it off. Pink eyes meet silver ones. It was Belanova.
"Keep over exhausting yourselves and you will grow wrinkles." Bela chuckled.
"Says the 1,000 year old fairy." Alphonse snickered.
Bela glares at him and smirked. She saw Muu closing in on behind him and decided to keep quiet. Shemi noticed and pointed a trembling finger.
He looked at her confused. He felt a shiver run down his spine and shadow came over him. He slowly turned around and a sickly sweet closed eye smile from his brother.

"Ehehe........"

"Found you."

"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!"

The poor bastard never stood a chance....Ha!

The eyes of rukh cut off and all the girls clasp their hands together.

"May you rest in peace Alphonse."

- Reim -

Muruko and Myron stared at disbelief at Alphonse, who was beaten to pulp and had his soul flying out of his mouth. Marga had a confused face, while, Kirito, Titus and Sphintus all faced palm. The girls all giggled. Lo'lo burst out laughing.
"That's what you get for disturbing the Captain and his wife!" Lo'lo laughed.
Myron told him to stop it. Alphonse sighs and fixed himself.
"Still, please tell me you got rid that picture?" Muruko plead.
Alphonse sighs.
"Don't worry about Muku, I got rid of it." He said.
Titus looked at him worried. Something his been bothering him lately.
"I'll be going now." Alphonse said and left.
"Wait Alphonse." Muu placed a hand on his brother's shoulder.
"Something's been bothering you lately. What's wrong?" He asked.
Alphonse stayed silent. He took his hand off his shoulder and left without a word.

He walked to his room and opened the door. He locked it and stared at the mirror. Images began to appear in his eyes.

flames....

Death......

An unbearable pain....

A person killed by sometime of Magic....

Him reaching out towards someone and flames engulf him....

He began to shiver with fear and held himself. He glared at his own reflection. The person he was reaching out to.....

Was Arba......

The image still stuck in his head. Her face filled with so much desperation to grab him. The look of a mother. Why.....? It should be impossible.
"My king...breath..." Stolas said.
Alphonse breath in and out, trying to calm down.

From far away, Gyokuen watched with a smile from her eye of rukh. She turns it off and grabs Sheba's staff. Sheba, before she killed her, split her divine stave into two. She has one half, but has never found the second one. She walked down to the dungeons, deeper and deeper. Till she reached door sealed with tailsmen. She smiles and enters. Inside is a golden staff, the top with a moon crescent and a blue shuriken in the opening left of the half moon. A blue jewel in the middle of it. It was covered in tails men. She smiles and walks up to it.
"My sweet Saito," she said and gently places her hands on it, "Soon, we'll all be together and be a family again." She smiles.
The staff glowed and shocked her hand. She ripped her hand away and hissed.

"Is keeping me trapped here really going to help....?"

Her eyes widened as a rukh silhouette appears. A man with once long black hair, now slightly purple. He now wore a black cloak around him.
"Saito my love!", she squeals and tries to hug but he put his hand up and she froze.
"Arba, stop this. I love you more than anything, but I can't bare to see my wife doing in despicable actions. Much less....." he looked at her coldly,"Make her own son fall to darkness." He said.
She clutched her fist and shook with anger.
"Why can't you see........WHY CAN'T YOU SEE I'M DOING THIS TO SET US FREE!!!!!" She yells at him furiously.
"You are still loyal to Solomon, aren't you?! Solomon was arrogant! It was his fault we are trapped in destiny! It's his fault that you were killed by David and we lost our son! It's all his fault!" She yells at him.
"You're wrong." He said.
"You think it was Solomon's fault? Solomon never wanted to be king. Sheba, Belanova, Luna, and I saw this. Even the djiins that chose to not be bound by him. You think destroying this world will set us free of destiny? It isn't. You're doing the same actions David did. The arrogant one, is you!" He said to her.
She looked at him in shock and horror.
"I will protect my son from the likes of you. No matter what. I'll save you, that's a promise!" He looked her seriously.
She grins at him. A shiver went up his spine.
"What makes you think you can?" And black rukh chains began to appear on him, and ties him down.
"My dear Saito.....you'll soon understand why I'm doing all this. For the sake of "our father", and to gain the power to destroy destiny completely. Ahaha.....HAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!" She cackled and left the room.

"DAMN YOU ARBA!!!!!!!!"

- Ocean -"

"Deep deep blue...
That is all I see.....
All the fish just stare at me....
I wish to be swim with the gupies that swim freely..." Luna sang as she sat at the edge of the seal and touched it.
For a thousand years, Ugo sealed her away. He wanted to protect her, he didn't want to loose her like they lost their daughter. But she was alive. What's more.....
"Erika.....I hope you're okay." She mumbled.

"After all these years......you still care for that....that....demon spawn?"

She didn't have to turn to know who it was. It was Ugo. She was transported back to the Scared Palace. Gold chains cuffs on her legs. She sighed.
"Erika is not a demon. She is human. she is a kind girl, and you know it. Honestly, why would you separate her and Aladdin?!" She looked up at him, as he looked down at her with hollow eyes.
"She is Elder David's Daughter." He said.
She stood up.
"So you're basically calling Solomon that also?!" She yells.
Ugo eyes went cold. How dare she say that?!
"There is a difference between her and Solomon." He answered coldly.
She gritted her teeth and began to hit the gold cuffs on her.
"It's impossible.," He said and she glared at him.
He gently picked her up and looked into her green eyes.
"I'm doing this for your own good. I won't loose you a second time." He said to her.
She looked at him with pity.
"You really think stripping me away from my freedom is the answer? You really think keeping me chain to my staff is the answer? Ugo....I love you...but please......I don't want this.....
I want to see our daughter again.....she's alive....Ugo...Caria is is alive!!!" She pleaded to him.
Ugo sighs and placed her down.
"Stop spouting nonsense. Caria is dead. And we'll never get her back. I'm returning you back to the ocean. I hope you come to understand that is for your own good." And the gold chains began to surround her.
Tears began to fall from her eyes as she reached towards the man she loves, before she was sent back to her cage.

"UUUUUUUGGGGGGOOOOOO!!!!"

- Kina -

Caria was asleep in her bed, her window opened. Karma stood standing there looking down at her. He held a knife above her when....

"What do you think you're doing?"

The tip of a sword was on the back of his neck. It was Sayaka. He smirked and slowly turned towards her but this time.....

"Karma?!"

His head snapped back to Caria. She looked at him shocked. How did she know his name?! He was about to speak when suddenly the castle began to tremble.
It wasn't just in Kina, it was happening in Reim and Sindria also. Everyone woke up and ran outside. Their eyes widened.

Kimi grabbed her metal vessels and ran outside with Sinbad and the others. A huge pyramid rose from the ocean.
"What's going on?! Is it an enemy attack?!" Sinbad yells.
Both were commanding their household to get the citizens to safety. Suddenly the door of it glowed and small arms began to come out it. The began to head towards them. They used their weapons and tried to fight them back but....

"KYAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!"

Kane turned around and his eyes widened as he saw the arms grabbed Shemi and began to drag her away. He ran to her and grabbed her, trying to cut the arms, but nothing was working.
Kimi jumped in the air, and slashed them. She didn't notice one behind her. Sinbad turned but it was too late. It grabbed her and dragged her away. She reached her hand out to him, but....

She couldn't reach him....and He couldn't reach her.....

"KIIIIIIIIIMMMMMMIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!"

(To be continued..........)
