Manami POV

"Why are you showing me this Amaya."

"Didn't you want to know how I met the Northern ruler Yumi. She's funny in a way you'd never guess. Yumi is gentle and kind to people but she's not perfect. Rather wherever she goes she's bound to have destruction to follow. Not of her own will but because her aura or rather its more that trouble attaches to her." (Amaya)

I stared confused at Amaya. She brought me here yet she didn't say why. Her kid like self was a part of my soul but I felt she's the one that didn't change, it was me.

"Where is your home."

"With Time. Along with my friend Ayame, one day we will have to leave here. I'm waiting and watching silently for that day to come." (Amaya)

"Let me rephrase this why do I see space from inside our own soul."

"Sorry you might not understand this but that's because of me. It's to make me remember the place Time lived in and to remember what he looks like. Sorry but this is good bye for now. See you again." (Amaya)

I woke up to see myself on Ember's lap.

"Why am I on your lap."

"You fainted so since we don't have a pillow I used my legs as a pillow for you." (Ember)

"I see. Sorry about that. I met Amaya, Yumi."

"Is that so is she well." (Ember)

"Your Ember now. But she said your the type that attracts unnecessary trouble. She didn't show me the memories of that. Though she did show me your first meeting."

"I'm sorry what's your relationship to Amaya." (Ember)

"She is also me but at the same time she isn't. We're one soul but she's the one that froze herself not wanting to change. Her words left me confused I'm waiting for when I go back to Time. What does she mean."

"Is that so. I thought she was abnormal but didn't think that was a possibility at all." (Ember)

"What is."

"She said she lived with a idiot that casted her down to our world which she called the human world which isn't wrong. But at same time seemed weird. The person that put her into our world wanted her to be reborn but she refused and bent the trajectory herself with her will power. Making her a soul with a spirit like body because she was unstable." (Ember)

"Wait spirits have a body too."

"Don't go mistaking them for ghost she they find it offensive. If you do die and end up there remember that. The spirits are different from humans they may have appearance like humans but to tell them apart is their pointy ears, the tattoos on their bodies and their pale skin. They're easily spotted but humans often mistake them for vampires.....things get ugly when that happens." (Ember)

Why'd you look away from me when you mention that. Don't even answer that one if I do ask. But why do you feel like you want to avoid angering them.

"I have a question for you. How is their government system."

"There's a king. Though if I remember correctly when I was alive the 2 princess of the spirit world went missing. They're looking for those two since they're the only heir to the throne." (Ember)

"Have you seen them before."

"No." (Ember)

"I have a question for you about your Phoenix race. Are you people still ruled by the elders in your race." (Tear)

"Oh so you know about those jerks. Nope mother said her grandfather got tired of their stupid decisions. She rebelled for what they did to what they did to our great great great great great grandmother. It was brought to light by grandmother in her anger. Great great great great great great grandmother was framed by the elders. Like one of our ancestors Aries. The only difference is that she didn't get killed by her family. Since great grandmother was the only child it was impossible to do. She was put down by them because she held more power of the people and influenced their life too greatly. So to retaliate the idiotic elders did it again." (Ember)

"Why do you seem to be shaking in rage." (Tear)

"Isn't it because you asked her something personal."

"They didn't do what they did to our ancestor Aries, where on her 500 birthday they framed her by hiring a assassin because she was known as a Saint among our people. Aries raised her sisters herself since her parents didn't care as much about them. The ratio of our Phoenixes are female to men ratio of 50 to 2. There's more females, the royals are the only pure bloodline that don't mix with other race. Ancestor Aries had been blamed for the killings and massacre of a noble family she didn't even know about. That day she was with her friend Flora. Back then the friend of hers was known as one of the rulers. The flaming witch. Angered by the fact that Aries was killed by her sisters. (Dying by arrow wounds she lived in pain for 300 or 400 years from the wounds that wouldn't heal until her death. But she faked her death so she wouldn't be hunted down by her siblings who weren't thinking clearly.) These very same sisters that were raised but used by those elders. Our Phoenixes were put on lock down by the immortal and Flora's lineage because of that incident."

"Ack she went history lesson on us." (Tear)

"Which of us asked her how their government decision was again."

I gave Tear pointed glares as Ember looked reminiscent as she recalled all the details of the past that her mother told her about it.

"Let me get this straight was this Aries your direct lineage or are you a descendant of her sisters."

"We're from one of her younger sister's lineage since Aries is the 1st eldest. Her sisters grieved for her and looked for her reincarnation afterwards to apologize but couldn't find her for centuries when they saw her again. She was with their half brother who's a destruction dragon, but because his twisted self justice he kept killing her when she killed someone he thought as good. The thing was they shared a body because a forbidden art too. (She was injured by her sisters shooting at her with arrows, he found her and in order to heal her, he used a forbidden art to share a body so she healed. But the side effects was that she'd be stuck with him through out her next lives. He's immortal cause he's a destruction dragon.) Annoyed after reborn as angel she couldn't trust him anymore though she shared my lifetimes with him. She shut him out to her plan to change her. No Izumi as she was called then changed her race to a devil. Her brother was what changed he gentleness and she rather not be a Saint that helps people since her stupid brother didn't want her to change. He wanted her to forever stay the kind sister that helped people and raised him up until his very self justice rules couldn't hold what their sibling bonds once were." (Ember)

"Have you met her once Ember."

"Hm yes. When the war was happening with the dragons and angels I met Izumi once. Her sisters have been reborn many times into our race. Some came back except our grandmother that was her sister that shot her near her heart. Many say it's due to the guilt. But Izumi said it was because it was the one sister she spoiled the most out of her sisters. Dia is our ancestor. The youngest of her sisters, but we haven't found a clue to her whereabouts even now." (Ember)

"And you regret it. No your family members regret that loss. When you met this Izumi how how long ago was it to now. You died 900,000 years ago in the war, is this Izumi still alive."

"I forgot to mention this but Izumi is a immortal devil after she changed her race. She's not like you Manami." (Ember)

"Good to know she doesn't resurrect like I do. But you mean like immortal she heals instantly and doesn't die. Devils eat souls and blood. Mostly their blood methods are brutal, they cut the mortal body for it or massacre if they went too long without food. The safer method is eating souls for them. But you said we once in your sentence somewhere meaning you consider yourself a Phoenix still."

"Wait you too don't make sense." (Tear)

"So let me get this straight your family has been framed twice by the elders. Annoyed your grandmother rid your people of the elders ruling them. The first time created a complex situation in your family. And you found out that the very first ancestor of yours Dia and Izumi was close. But Izumi is still alive. Are we in the clear for the story so far."

"Yep. Though she is being hunted down by her stupid brother." (Ember)

"Let me get this straight you got a sensible ancestor and her mixed blood brother which you royals dislike since he's a mistake that his mother gave birth to. But this isn't the reason you Phoenixes dislike him. The main reason is because of Aries whom he changed by killing her and over again when they shared a body, before she did the race change to make sure they're permanently away from each other and the forbidden art is also dispelled. So she's being chased by a self justice freak."

"Yep. Grandmother said that our great grandmother was framed for a even stupider thing. They the elders killed a ambassador of the dragon's which started the war. Blaming our great grandmother which pissed grandmother off. Making her go rabid dog and rampage to kill all elders and their family so that another one wouldn't be created. Flora's descendants said they had it coming. Not that I don't get that." (Ember)

I held my head, ugh your government and the complex problems. Tear you idiot shouldn't have asked. Tear is covering her ear and saying she can't hear a word. Stupid girl your the idiot dragon that asked her for a history lesson of what happened to the elders that governed their islands. Then made me listen to it, your training is tripled I'm axing the earlier plan.

"Wait why is your eyes gleaming." (Tear)

"Gena where is the highest volcano we can find."

"Hisssssss." (Next floor down stairs. Wait did this sissy annoy you because you got a history lesson by the Elven girl. Well former Phoenix though since she's a royal she has her former powers.) (Gena)

"Wait I'm not a sissy and why'd you get annoyed by the talk it was just a small lecture." (Tear)

"Sure I simplified the lecture but that doesn't mean I liked it. I have a major headache from the politics and the stupid family history lessons. As a insurance don't worry I'll save you just a second before you die. Gena your not to help. Come over here."

"Hiss." (Good luck! I mean it. Angering a ancient goddess is just stupidity from you dragon princess.) (Gena)

I teleported Tear straight into the volcano since I used Gena's memory of it I dropped the dragon into the volcano opening from the top.

"Damn it. I'm falling." (Tear)

"Do know I locked most of your abilities and skills except your regeneration and your teeth as well as your stomach abilities. Your stomach ability would allow you to eat anything. Your teeth are there for a reason so use it. Also I locked your dragon abilities besides those three. Since your stomach can handle anything without killing you. Oh a advice, most plants are poisoned here. (She asked Gena when they teleported.) Golems, elementals, fire demons, drakes and lava serpent do enjoy just don't die cause I locked your strength as dragon. Also if you want to do demihuman transformation I locked it too. Enjoy your 5 months of harsh training."

"Fuck. She's more than pissed she purposely locked all my hand to hand combats and all skills on me. What about my weapons and items. No she didn't do it....why can't I open my inventory." (Tear)

I can hear her crying as I left. Please do understand you reap what you sow. I did say she only needed her stomach, teeth and regeneration.

"Hiss." (Aren't you being too harsh for her. I mean like leave her weapons or food.) (Gena)

"She has to earn those herself. Maybe the only threat to the current her is the lava serpent but that's only if she goes to his nest. I mean she wouldn't be that stupid right."

"Hiss." (This is Tear your talking about. Remember she tried to seduce the sucubus she saw in the 1 month period. She got her ass handled and ended up throwing up blood all over and slammed around like a rag doll.) (Gena)

"She doesn't think it through at all. Hopefully she learns from this one how to use her head. Not her gut feelings."
