Chapter 8

Reina's POV

     "Sarah Willliams? Who is she?", I asked with curiousity.
     I never heard of that name before and I didn't know why but I wanted to know about her more. I saw Cicil walked to Nicholas and whispered something to him. He nodded a few times then Cicil went back to her place.
     "Oh, Dear! Let's take a walk while we're talking about this.", he said with a smile.
     I followed him, not knowing why but suddenly I felt like I've known him for forever. We walked through the beautiful garden then arrived at a place with a fountain in the center. On the fountain I could see a statue of a young woman holding the floating-earth on her right hand and a book with six symbols on the cover, just like the symbols on the elevator.
     "This is Sarah Williams. Maybe you don't know her, but she IS you.", he gave a strong emphasis on the word is.
     I walked around the fountain. How the statue was made was really brilliant. I had to say that she is really beautiful, with her long curly hair and big eyes, she has made me amazed.
     "She is beautiful."
     "Of course! She was the most beautiful woman back then. Unfortunately, she couldn't marry anyone.", he explained.
     Then Nicholas began his long story about Sarah Williams. From she was a child, grew up and was the most wanted girl, the incident that awaken her power, her journey in fighting the evil, up until she died on her thirties right before Seinze finnished being bulit.
     "Who is the evil?", I asked after Nicholas finnished his story.
     "It is the devil, satan, or you may say demon? Back then, all the elements, which are fire, earth, sound, light, wind, and water haven't united like now. So the demon took that chance to make all the elements fought each other. Well Sarah succeeded in making them all united and fought the demon, but as you can see now, there are still some grudge between the elements. It was the demon too, he hasn't die yet, or you can say he can't die, we, the humans and guiders only can make him weak. So he is still out there, waiting for the perfect time to take over the earth."
     In my mind, I could imagine how all of the events happened. It must be really hurt her back then.
     "You can think of all of this later, Dear. But make sure you consider about helping us, and human. Cicil, please take Reina to her world."
     I nodded slightly and Cicil came in seconds. She bowed to Nicholas, mumbled "Yes, Sir!", then guided me to the portal.

***

     I walked slowly to the hall. I received so many informations today, I couldn't imagine how I could receive anymore in the hall. Just when I arrived, the hall's door slammed open. The students rushed out of the hall and in a few minutes I could see Albert, Anthony, and Vivian. After seeing me, they walked towards me.
    "Phew! That was long!", exclaimed Albert.
     Anthony and Vivian nodded in unison.
     "Sarah Williams... Why we have to learn about her on our first day?", Vivian asked in anger.
     They're learning about Sarah too? Thanks God then! I don't have to ask them about it and make up a story.
     "Hey, can you guys accompany me to the library?"
     "Why?", asked Albert.
     "Mmmm.... There's something that I want to search about."
     "I have to go home right now, sorry!", Albert said.
     "Me too! Mom has already started to call my phone thousand times!", said Vivian.
     "Then I'll go with you.", Anthony ruffled my hair.
     "Hey!", I screamed while tidying up my hair.
     Albert and Vivian went and Anthony went with me to the library. Just right after we arrived, he took me to a less-crowded part of the library.
     "What happened?", he asked while skimmed through the books.
     "How can you know?"
     "You're already outside while usually you're the last one to go out from any school events."
     Silence. I considered for a while, whether I should tell him or not.
     "I... met with a little creature called the guider."
     Silence again. He didn't interrupted my story.
     "He said that... I am the rencarnation of Sarah Williams..."
     Silence again. Suddenly the book on Anthony's hand fell down and made a ruckus. Many "sshhh!" were made in that room.
     "You??... Sarah Williams?"
     I nodded and started to walk to the history shelf. Anthony looked like he was digesting the informations, so I continued to skimmed through the books, trying to find anymore informations about Sarah Williams.
     "So what are you going to do now?"
