The Dance of Fates: Bellatrix
Fates... How much do you believe in Fates?
Centuries ago, a prophecy was told. In time, bits of pieces were lost. The remaining was preserved but it left many questions:
"Every period of time comes forth the Archnemesis.
The night will fall like the snow in winter season
and the day will come like a flower that blooms in springtime.
War shall cause the lives of many and the weak shall suffer.
But lo, and behold, in a family of winter shall come the Blood Star of every generation.
Strength and might that shall spill the blood of its Adversary by the death with its soul."
Chloe Liu just wanted to become a fully pledged Kryst, a soldier of the Kingdom of Demetrius.
Lucian Liu and the members of the Seven Geniuses just wanted to protect his sister.
Prince Ciaran, the Særi ust Trūx (Future King), just wanted to protect the Kingdom of Demetrius along with his friends.
What if the Fates wanted more?
Ambition, love, manipulation, and power. The 27th Blood Star Bellatrix has to get through to the end. But will Bellatrix be able to turn the water to blood?

Chapter: Chapter 96FALINE grimaced as the female Healing Kryst finished wrapping bandages around her chest. Blooms of dark purple were peeking out from the edges of the white fabric. It had taken much effort on her part not to squirm away as the bandages tightened around the bruises on her torso and the wound on her left chest. With her patient’s wounds dressed, the Healing Kryst gently helped Faline lean back against the pillows. She then leaned back and sighed.“I managed to heal your minor bruises and broken bones. But your wound and those major bruises on your torso and arms will take time for us to heal," she informed. "Don't move too much. You are going to be bedridden for days at least until your wound will close," she continued with a stern look. She handed Faline a small pouch. "Drink one every after meal."The female Knight nodded numbly and brought the pouch to her chest. The Healing Kryst gave her one to drink. Once she had finished gulping down the tiny medicine, the Healing K

Chapter: Chapter 95FALINE was beyond terrified as she set her eyes upon the third rank witch who was behind her, with a sharp blade stabbed on her left chest. It didn't hit her heart but she knew that once she moved, it will damage her organ.The witch cackled before pulling out the knife from Faline's body. "Surprise~!"The soldiers of Esteban Liu swiftly closed in. One grabbed Faline by the hair and yanked her half off the ground. She gritted her teeth and tightly shut her eyes as spasms of pain echoed across her body. Another pressed the edge of a sword against her neck in warning, while the witch carelessly stepped over the corpses of men until she met with the man she despised.They stopped just a little farther away. If the situation wasn’t so dire, Faline would have felt proud that even wounded she was considered a potential threat. When Esteban reached her, he bent down to eye level.“Hello, dear relative. That was an impressive display," his voice lit with false pleasa

Chapter: Chapter 94FALINE sat next to the window while idly petting Astora with her free hand. Fall turned into winter. Large snowflakes were drifting in the wind and sticking to the garden grounds, covering the barren plants and walls in a thin layer white. Ever since she was granted the power of the ice, she could see and feel the winter more than her colleagues could. Snowflakes always fascinated her since then with their never ending patterns and glassy gleam. Faline could stare at them all day.Well, she could if she weren’t once again sorting through the intelligence reports. The stack of reports was large and varied in information. A week ago, Tara decided to leave the Knights and go back to the Wild.~O~"Tara, why do you want to leave?" Faline asked her friend one night.The Knight of the Wild Beast turned to her with a slight grin. "I am not fitted in this glamorous setting," she answered. Tara looked up at the glittering crystallized palace which had once been a home

Chapter: Chapter 93ASTORA perched on the table, atop Faline's mountain of papers. She, Ailene, Jade, Iwaoka and Trūx Seiki watched as Levi gently tossed the auburn-haired toddler in the air and then caught him, childish giggles echoing off the walls of the Solar with windows overlooking the courtyard. Eventually the little prince became tired of the game and tugged the Lightning Kryst’s shirt. The prince mumbled a request to be let down in the gibberish way of not yet fully mastered speech. Levi set the toddler on the floor and ruffled his auburn hair, causing the prince to pout in the same manner that his father did.“Amaury!” Ailene called out as she held her arms wide open.The toddler ambled over and settled down in the dark haired Wind Kryst’s lap with a yawn. Ailene smiled and lightly hugged him.“When did you get so big?” she asked.“His fourth birthday is coming up soon," Faline commented as her finger lightly petted over the Halequin's head.Ailene blinked as ret

Chapter: Chapter 92THE wind blew harder. The sky was clearer and brighter blue. There were no clouds to shield them.Levi, and the other men of the Knights had already shed their top as they continued on their journey. Faline and the other girls just didn't mind as they were already shedding their heavy clothes and just used thin clothing.It was the second summer of their conquest. A couple of years had passed since they started their conquest in the land of Eriya, now Deirdre. The army, which was reduced to a smaller numbers than the first time they stepped into this land, were following them.With the help of the Rein Tribe, Lornn Tribe, Lewelyn Tribe, Travis Tribe, Jōn Tribe and Li Tribe, the land of Karhan was now under the rule of the Kingdom of Demetrius.As they reached the borders of the land of Karhan and Vestia, General Dana stopped and so did those that were following her. She faced the Travis tribe who were travelling along with them."I understand that you w

Chapter: Chapter 91KING Demetrius must have been waiting for this for so long, Faline thought to herself as she avoided a perilous attack from the Black Shaol. He must have overlooked the lands of Eriya and Karhan from the highest mountain in Vestia. What could have been the view from up there? To be surrounded with the Kingdom of Illinor, the mistress of witchcraft.The battle was like a slow motion in front of Faline's eyes. Allies and enemies alike, fell on the ground over and over again. Each one of the Krysts were specialized with various elements. Vestia had the main nature Earth and Water. The recently acquired land of Deirdre had the Wind. Fused together, they became stronger. Faline wondered why Eric Travis' tribe, who holds the strongest Fire element, didn't show up yet.It took her a moment to notice that there were no tribe members involved in this war except the Knights of Shaula.Her gaze went to the spot where her comrades were fighting with endless vigor. The Knights

Chapter: Chapter 10 || GamalielPhilippines, 1962THE Luneta National Park in Ermita, Manila was nearly deserted, except for the Philippine Marine Corps' Marine Security and Escort Group that was assigned for the security of the Philippine National Hero, Dr. Jose Rizal's monument and remains.The evening was damp and moist, and many of the passersby had long gone back to their homes by now.As Gamaliel walked down the pathway towards the area of his meeting, he realized that this park was indeed secured. A perfect spot for a rendezvous.A safe park is a safe place, he mused in his head.He didn't know who he was meeting with tonight. Louise had slipped a piece of paper in his chest pocket two days ago when they visited him in the ancestral house. After they left, he locked the library and sat on the abandoned sofa in order to read it.The note was brief and straight to the point. It said, "Luneta National Park, west side. Monday, 7 p.m. Wear a white scarf. Th

Chapter: Chapter 9 || GamalielPhilippines, 1962JANE and the kids felt safer once they were inside the Laurencio ancestral house. She let the two children in before locking the door behind her and kept the curtains down. She then leaned against the wall, trying to compose herself.She must admit, Jane was aghast by what had happened. She never had felt fear before and she knew this had to do when children were involved in a shooting.The house was silent. Grandma Laurencio must have been sleeping, unaware of everything that was looming ahead of this family. She had called Amara and Gamaliel along the way home. The distance from Amara's company and the house was close and so she knew they arrived before the three of them did.Jane cleared her throat and walked after Bernard and Maeve. They went to the family room where she heard noises inside. Perhaps, the whole family was waiting for them anxiously.~O~O~O~WHEN Jane brought the kids to the an

Chapter: Chapter 8 || GamalielTHE Manila International Airport was the main aerial runway of the Philippines in 1962. At that time, Filipinos and foreign guests came to and from countries through this airport.It was sunny and hot, although it was not summer at all. Mark Laurencio stepped out unto the heat and walked down the stairs of the plane. Passengers started to stream towards the departure area; they couldn't wait to either go back home to their town or explore the beauty of the Pearl of the Orient Seas.Donned in a simple shirt and blue pants and dragging his suitcase with him, Mark followed the crowd towards the departure area where families and friends were united. He took a longing gaze at the crowd, trying to spot those people who supposed to meet him here.A young woman in a black business coat and pants stood at the side of the exit and was looking shamelessly at him. "Mark Laurencio?" She seemed positive, used to authority, but friendly."Yes," he answered, nodding."

Chapter: Chapter 7 || GamalielPhilippines, 1962MAEVE was ecstatic as she moved from one place to another, playing with the familiar children of the police officials.There's Maria, Vicky, and Kyle who were just the same age as her. They also went to the same school together, a reason why their friendship was deeper than any children in town.Bernard was also one of the stars that night. The family of the hosts knew his prowess in playing the piano and made sure that they had the most grandiose organ they had. The young man became excited when someone requested him to play Beethoven's Für Elise for the guests. The event hall then filled with the music of the infamous composer Beethoven.Amara, however, was filled with tension. She held Gamaliel's arm tighter than the usual. He could feel the fear and anxiety she was sending from the grip of her fingers to his arm that led to his heart.Gamaliel understood what caused this tension and he had no wish to increase his wife's

Chapter: Chapter 6 || GamalielPhilippines, 1962THE man stood at the door of the bedroom, his arms crossed against his broad chest as he leaned against the ebony frame of the entrance. He was wearing a navy blue police uniform with the police accoutrements: PNP badge on his left chest, shoulder badge with one flower that signified his rank in the police department, nameplate, and other special badges that showed his accomplishments. His dark hair was combed back, his light brown eyes were staring at his wife intently with a loving smile curving at the side of his lips. He was both handsome and smart and his name was Gamaliel Laurencio, the chief inspector of the Philippine National Police.The woman he was staring at was standing before the triangular shaped Danish style mirror in the bedroom. She slowly turned her body to the side, studying the dress. The dress that she was wearing was a traje de mestiza, made by the famous designer in the Philippines at thei

Chapter: Chapter 5 || MaevellinePhilippines, 2007IT took five hours for Maeve to reach her destination. After Maeve's plane touched down in Iloilo International Airport, she immediately went to the parking lot where her rented car was waiting. Her ride to the west coast of Iloilo was smooth and silent. She missed having this trip alone when she was still young.Isla de Bello was literally a beautiful island. The first time Maeve saw this island was when she and Paul looked for a land to invest on and she was immediately captivated by the luscious treasure it had.By time Maeve was riding the boat to reach the island, the summer sky was already the color of the coals. The sky was dotted with stars, however. It stretched from one end to the other and they seemed boundless. Beautiful. Captivating. She could see the Northern Star which seemed to guide the crew of the boat she was in. The moon hung at their left side in a blaring yellow light, full and huge.
