"Where…. Where am I? Ouch, it hurts!" A young woman woke up early in the morning. She had bandages in all her body. She felt that all her body hurt from the tip of her toes until the tip of her hairs.
"Artemis! You finally woke up!" A cheerful voice ca from her side, when she looked at the direction of the voice, she saw a young woman with brown hair and green eyes looking at her with a joyful expression. Artemis was surprised after seeing this young woman.
"Deter? You woke up your sumr from?" Asked Artemis.
"Yeah… however, my soul was injured when I evolved, so I only have 70% of my original powers in the sumr form, to recover, I will need a few months, so I will have to stay in this form for at least a year or even more depending of how much I use my powers" Said Deter with a bitter smile.
"You forced the evolution, didn't you?" Asked Artemis with a serious tone.
Deter looked at her and nodded.
"Back there, I did enter in the tamorphosis stage, however, it take three days to complete the evolution so, I had to use so on my life force to increase the speed of the process" Said Deter.
"How bad it's the injury?" Asked Artemis.
"I wont be able to use the Ying-yang domain until I enter my autumn form" Said Deter.
Artemis made a long sigh and looked at Deter.
"What happened after I fainted?" Asked Artemis.
Deter recalled all the events of that day, the death of Alberto, the fight with Lucio and the loyalty decree of both parties towards Wasteland Valley.
"What happen to that guy, Lucio" Asked Artemis.
"He is in the basent of the manor, locked up, I have part of his soul so, if he tried anything funny I will just devour it and the "shadows" will hunt his body" Said Deter.
"I see… then what about Alfonso, where is he?" Asked Artemis.
Deter remained in silence.
Artemis's face beca pale.
"Where is he!?" Asked Artemis while trying to stand up.
"Don't stand up you will hurt yourself more, he is resting in the room next door, is just…" Said Deter.
"Is just what?"
"He hasn't woke up since that day" Said Deter.
"What do you an by hasn't woke up!? Is he that injured?" Asked in pacnic Artemis
"No, his external injuries are fine, however, his left eye was beyond salvation, he completely lost it, apart from that, he is fine, however, it seems that his soul receive so kind of injury, I can't heal it, not with my sumr form, and, because I cant enter the Ying-yang domain, Its impossible for to check out his soul anymore, I used my last chance to do it and sothing blocked my vision" Said Deter.
Artemis took a few minutes to finally calm down.
"Can I see him?" Asked Artemis.
"Yeah, however, for now, just rest, you aren't exactly in a nice position either. You broke almost all your bones, you are blessed that we recover so of our powers and our bodies are stronger than normal humans, if not, you will death by now" Said Deter in a serious tone.
Artemis relaxed and lied down on her bed.
"I know my body the best, is as you say I will need a month to recover, however, to recover my fighting shape, I will need half a year, my injuries are to sever" Said Artemis.
"Its good that you know, well, I will let you rest… don't go on your own and worsen our injuries" Said Deter with a severe tone.
"Co on, I am not that drunker, you can trust " Said Artemis with a slightly awkard expression.
Deter made a sweet smile.
"Of course, I can trust you" Said Deter.
Artemis made a reliavable sigh.
*CACHA*
Suddenly a sound interrup her thoughts, she looked at her own foot and saw a handcuff, she tried to move her foot but the handcuff was roped to the bed.
Artemis had so small black lines on her forehead while looking at Deter who was still smiling radiantly.
"I say you could trust !" Said Artemis.
"But I trust you~" Said Deter.
Artemis signaled her foot with her hand.
"This doesn't look like trust at all!"
"Just in case, just in case~" Said Deter.
"I forgot that her personality changes every ti she changes forms" Though Artemis.
"Well, I will be going, take care~" Said Deter.
Artemis lied on her bed while doing a small pout.
Deter closed the door and Artemis was just about to go to sleep once again when she saw that Deter had her head showing from the door.
"I almost forgot" Said Deter.
"What?"
"I will be sleeping on the sa bed that Alfonso since the cane broke, so he doesn't feel any pain" Said Deter with a slightly playful smile.
"WHAT!?" Said Artemis.
"Yeah, you know he and , man and woman, he is quite sturdy despite his looks~" Said Deter.
"DETER! You bitch, let go!" Said Artemis while trying to cut the handcuff.
"Bye Bye~" Deter closed the door.
"DETER!!!!" The shout of Artemis could be heard in all the manor of Tulip.
............
It was late at night went Deter enter Alfonso's room.
What? You thought she was only teasing Artemis?
No, no. She was serious.
In fact, she has been doing it for the first night since Alfonso stayed in the manor!
She felt comfortable sleeping by his side.
However, she only slept at his side nothing more. This night however, sothing surprised Deter, just as she was about to change into her pajamas, she saw Alfonso's face, the moonlight make Deter notice sothing slightly different on Alfonso.
"Its just … or his hair is turning black?" Though Deter while looking at Alfonso's head.
Indeed, if one looked closely, Alfonso's hair, who was originally blond due to the blood of the Lockhearts, suddenly had blackness on the left side.
"What is happening" Though Deter.
