Chapter 10

POOF! Lemina appears from out of nowhere in a room. Too bad that she had to pop up in mid-air! WHUMPH! "OUCH! Oh, pooh! How come time travel has to be so rough?" Lemina picks herself up after crash landing on her behind and takes a look around to see where she is.

Before she can figure out on her own if the spell sent her back home, Lemina hears a very familiar voice that sounds very frantic at the moment. "Lemina! Oh, my darling Lemina!"

Lemina turns towards the sound of the voice to see Miria sitting in a chair. "Mother!" Lemina and Miria run towards each other and hug, Miria practically squeezing all of the air out of Lemina! It looks like Mia kept her promise!

"Lemina! You had everyone here at the Guild so worried when you disappeared! Especially me! How could you do this to your own mother? Where did you run off to all day anyway? Oh, you are in so much trouble, young lady!"

Lemina knows she's in big trouble when her mother is this upset!

"Mother, please calm down! I'm sorry I had you and everyone else so worried, but I can explain everything! It won't be easy to believe, but I can explain!"

"You better explain yourself, Lemina! And it better be good!"

Miria is furious now! She's standing in front of Lemina with arms folded, waiting for her daughter to tell her what happened.

"Well, it all started when...," Lemina then notices the yellow ribbon on her magic wand, the one that Mia had given to her. Lemina gasps aloud as if she forgot something. "I'm sorry, Mother but there's something I have to check on!"

Lemina runs out of the room, making Miria even angrier!

"WHAT!? Lemina! You come back here! I'm not done with you yet!"

Miria chased Lemina down the hall as best she can. However, with Lemina being the younger of the two, Miria falls behind fast. Lemina runs to the Grand Hall and goes right to Mia's portrait.

Lemina examines the portrait with uncontrollable enthusiasm. She's got to have it! She's got to! Lemina continues to look the portrait over carefully, yet quickly when all of a sudden she leaps for joy! "YES! She got what I left for her! Oh, Mia! I will work hard until our dream is fulfilled!"

Just then, Miria finally catches up to Lemina. "HUFF! HUFF! Lemina! What's gotten into you? I demand an explanation!" Lemina simply points to Mia's portrait. Actually, Lemina is pointing out the black ribbon that Mia has tied onto her wrist. "What about that, Lemina? Mia has always had that ribbon on in the portrait." Lemina simply smiles at her mother and holds up her blonde hair, showing it to Miria.

"What don't you see in my hair, Mother?" Miria was too mad at Lemina before to notice that the black hair ribbon that Lemina wears is missing.

"Where is your rib..." Miria stares blankly at Lemina, then switches her gaze to Mia's portrait. She stares back and forth between the two for some time before she finally speaks again. "Lemina, dear. Are you saying that... that..."

Lemina chuckles a bit before walking over and taking Miria by the arm. "It's a long story, Mother! But it's mega-cool! It's about a promise made one thousand years ago!"



Epilogue

Mia has to shield her eyes from the flash of light that was made by Lemina's departure back to her own time. After she uncovers her eyes, Mia could swear that she saw something fall to the floor.

She walks over to where the pillar of light was to find a black ribbon on the floor in place of where Lemina stood. So that's what she was doing! She was taking off her ribbon to give to me! Mia picks up Lemina's ribbon and ties it on to her wrist. Don't worry, Lemina! I will work hard so you can have a Vane to go back to!

As Mia left the lab, she couldn't shake the feeling that, somehow, she would she Lemina again. She didn't know how that could be possible, but at the same time, Mia didn't doubt it either.
