Third Person's POV
They had dinner and catched up together, especially Aurora's parents with Ramises and Tiara.
Dymitri watched Tiara carefully stare at Aurora who's sharing what he did these past days. He was confused and puzzled when he saw how the former Queen watch him with adoration.
Dymitri suddenly felt someone pinched his side, looking up, he saw Theodore watching down at him.
"Are you okay? You look distracted."
"Nothing, it's just,"
"Just what?"
"Your grandma."
"What about her?" Theodore asked.
"Just look at her. The way she looks at Aurora, it's just like I can smell something fishy." Theodore looked a bit to his Grandmother and focused his attention to his boyfriend.
"Maybe you're tired."
"No I'm not." Dymitri pouted which he earned a peck in his cheek coming from the man beside him.
"Yes you are." The man teased and Dymitri pinched his leg which he groaned in pain.
"Oh goodness, look at the time, it's already midnight." Lucy suddenly said.
"Let's rest now." Chris added and they all started to fix theirselves.
"Goodnight guys!" Aurora told them when they reached upstairs to his room before he locked his room.
The sox of them looked each other until Tiara appeared.
"Is he in his room?"
"Yes." Without wasting any second, she waved her hand in the air and sparkles sprinkled in the air.
"Let's go in the basement." She announced.
"What did you do?" Dymitri can't help but to ask her.
"I just put him into a deep sleep so he can't wake up for now. It will last only for hours." She assured and the started to go downstairs.
As they started to walked through the living room, Dymitri looked behind to see Tiara following them.
"I can feel that you have something to tell me." She said and Dymitri pouted.
"Just go first, I have something to talk with Dymitri." She said to them and they just nodded. Theodore looked at the two of them suspiciously until he sighed.
"We'll wait you down there okay?" He said to Dymitri.
"Okay." The smaller boy nodded and watched Theodore walk away.
"So, what do you want to talk about Demi? The former queen of the Titan Kingdom asked him.
"It's just bugging me. Aurora is the person I saw in my premonitions after Thadeus and I met at the beach." He said immediately to the Queen.
"What's happening? Why I saw Aurora with Thadeus and what really bothers me is that he died saving thay arrogant punk." Tiara sighed and looked away.
"Aurora and Thadeus are meant to be married Demi, that's why." Dymitri stood there, frozen after hearing those words.
"M-married? What are you talking about?"
"Aurora Imperial is the future Queen of the Titan Kingdom Dymitri, and the future wife of Crown Prince Thadeus Crimsonblack." She exclaimed.
"I know Aura's real parents, I witnessed how his parents die in the arms of the murks after he was born." She added looking back at Dymitri.
"Me and his biological grandfather had an agreement that our first born grandchild will marry because he's a close friend of mine in front of the Diamond Gem, the heart of Zelquestria. We didn't care of their genders though because it's only the firstborns until he died saving his daughter which is pregnant by Aurora that time." She explained as memories flashed in her mind. The bitter taste of that eventful night before her best friend dies saving his family.

"Have you been wondering what's the story behind Aurora's name?" She asked to Dymitri.
"N-no."
"Aurora was named after her mother, Arizona labored on one peaceful winter night. We were running back then until her water broke. She labored in the fresh snow that night. The baby is so pretty, skin was like a porcelainized skin no-- skin as white as snow. His blue icy eyes came from his father and his feminine features came from his mother. After that, they brainstormed for his name, which will suit him until the starry night flashed colorful lights. The borealis was so stunning that night and his mother smiled calling him Aurora which perfectly fits him.
After that, a white lights bursted in front of us and revealed Selena, the goddess of moon. She told us that he's the one, the one who will save us from the darkness and death, the one who will defeat the monster who came from nowhere but,"
"But what?"
"The child possessed too much power. He's the one who's been summoned of the four elemental spirits. He may be possesses good power but this power can destroy too, just like yours Dymitri." She explained looking at Dymitri.
"In order to prevent this from happening, Arizona created a magic crystal in order to stop the flow of powerful energy om Aura's blood and Selena casted a powerful protection spell for Aurora, binding the crystal into his arm so it will last longer and that jewel will help him stop the powers for the meantime and his true powers will eventually wake up sooner when he's ready." She added putting some sense into their discussion.
"That's why he's always long sleeves, jackets, sweaters, turtlenecks and other kind of clothes to hide the crystal in his arm."
Dymitri realized this, ever since they met, he saw Aurora wears sweater earlier, even when they came back to eat dinner, he was wearing long sleeves.
"After Selena warned us, Murks eventually appeared and attacked us. That's what happened why his family died and I ran him away. I thought that we could've safe if were from away from here and I decided to go here, in the human world. Luckily, I'm friends with Chris and that time, Lucy had a miscarriage. I decided to give Aurora to them, after all he'll remain powerless until the time comes and they accepted him.
Once every year, I will visit him but I must hide my identity from him. I always visit him midnight and just that until now."
"I must protect him Demi, that's why I'm worried about him." Tiara sighed and Dymitri looked at her not knowing what to do.
"I'm his godmother Demi and I'll protect him no matter what happens." She said smiling faintly.
"Anyways, let's go now. They are waiting for us." She said and the two eventually moved forward.
They arrived finally into the basement where the ceremony of incantation is going to held.
"Here are the instructions for the spell Dymitri," Lucy told him handing the scroll that contains the forbidden incantation.
"But I warned you, this spell is strictly forbidden. Even me can't do this. Only a powerful mage can completely perform this." She warned but Dymitri ignored her.
He opened it and read thoroughly the instructions. Absorbing what written inside into his mind, he closed the scroll and handed it to Lucy.
"Where should I place myself performing this spell?"
"At the center." Lucy replied and Dymitri went into the center of the room where a podium stands. He's inside in a magical circle written in the cold floor.

Sighing deeply to chanel his powers, he gazed at the spectators around him and then, focused to remember what he just read in the scroll.
"Please, be careful." He heard Theodore and he smiled.
"I will." He replied and took a deep breath.
Waving his hands, his powers were freely emitted simply with his simple yet soft gestures. Closing his eyes, he recalled the incantation and he eventually started.
The air began to blew, even though they're inside of a house, wind started to blow. A light flashed in front of him, a faint purple light which signifies his powers. He then gave his powers into that light which the light gratefully took in.
Dymitri let the light take his powers, sapping all without stopping for a second. Theodore and the others were worried when they saw how he gave all his energy into that light, especially when Dymitri's knees started to tremble.
Theodore was about to ran to him when Dymitri stopped him.
"Stay back!"
"I can handle this." He added which didn't satisfy Theodore.
"Trust me." He said and Theodore moved to his position.
Dymitri smirked and channelled his remaining powers. Closing his eyes, he eventually opened them and it changed into a darker hue of purple.
He emitted his powers and everything stopped. The time, the people around him, everything stopped except for him and the incantation.
"I control the flow of time, I'm the time. And I can do this." He said to himself.
He gave further energy into the light which made it grumbled.
He finally knew that he had unlimited energy, thanks to his possession of powers which can heal him fast and regenerate the powers inside him even faster.
The light started to grew even more and more and more until it finally exploded. Dymitri stumbled a few steps backwards but looking into the light, his lips formed a smile when he saw a bottle floating in the air. His smile suddenly turned into a frown when he saw a swirling smoke behind the bottle.
The smoke swirled around until it formed into a figure of a bird, no, a phoenix.
The two stared each other for a second until the phoenix screeched and flapped its wings, descending into Dymitri which caught him off guard.
The moment the mysterious phoenix tackled Demi, it was absorbed by Dymitri's body and he hit the floor, lying down with a strange feeling in his chest.
Everything started to get back to normal. The people around him were surprised when they saw Dymitri in the floor while a moment ago, they witnessing him how he stood in the podium doing the forbidden incantation.
Theodore immediately approached him and helped him up but upon sitting beside him, he noticed he's panting and also, an unexplainable aura was coming from him.
"I d-did it." He whispered and Theodore looked down at him with a puzzled face.
"I did it." Dymitri repeated and flashed into Theodore's eyes the purple bottle he was holding.
Theodore's eyes went wide and he immediately hugged the boy into a crushing hug.
People around gathered around him as they saw Dymitri made it.
The purple bottle who will held and incase the spirits away from their bodies. It was decorated with ancient gold rings where a series of ancient incantations were written to prevent the sins from breaking free and even breaking the bottle. It's cap has a purple jem at the top and a twin tusk as if a horn of a devil.
"Khalil? Can you heal him?" Theodore asked his friend which he immediately moved nearer to his best friend and started to do his business. Dymitri immediately went back to his usual self but still, the people around him can evidently feel his unexplainable aura.
"Can you feel that?" Kieffer asked King and Ace through their mindlink.
"Yes, that aura." Ace replied.
"It seems like he's gotten stronger than before." King spoke and the two agreed.
"Let's go back upstairs guys, and you have to rest Dymitri." Chris told them and eventually got out from the basement.
In the morning,
"Good morning, where's Dymitri?" Aurora curiously asked Theodore, Kieffer and Skye in the living room.
It's 7:00 in the morning and the three of them woke up earlier from what they expected.
The three looked at the 5'2 boy wearing a oversized sweater and skinny jeans, his fluffy hair bouncing everytime he step.
"Good morning Aura." Skye greeted and Aurora smiled at him.
"Morning kiddo." Kieffer added but Aura's smiled turned into a frown.
"I'm not a kid, I'm 17. Almost an adult." He ranted.
"Yeah, still a kid." Kieffer teased and Aurora glared at him.
"I'm not a kid!"
"But you're shorter than us."
Aurora had enough, and what Kieffer said just broke his ego. He admits that he's short but it's not his fault.
"You, I'll kill you." Aurora said between gritted teeth. He then marched towards Kieffer, rolling his sleeve for his hand as he curled it into a ball.
"Really? Try me kid--- fuck." Kieffer was taken a back when Aurora suddenly punched him straight to his guts. He suddenly felt cold where Aura just punched him and that made him confused.
"I'm not short, you're just tall asshole." Aurora cursed glaring at the 6'3 foot tall man in front of him.
"What's happening here?" Their heads suddenly snapped back toward Dymitri who's in the last two steps of the stairwell.
"Demi!" Aura ran towards him with a pout.
"What? What happened?"
"That jerk, he's getting into my nerves." Aura glared at Kieffer who's still feeling the hit.
"Oh." The only word Dymitri say when he doesn't know what to react.
"Okay, let's just grab something to eat to calm you down." Demi finally said guiding the owner of the house into their kitchen.
The three stared at them until they disappeared into their sight.
"Fuck, that kid knows how to properly throw a punch." Kieffer suddenly sounded catching the other's attention.
"You deserved it, you triggered him." Skye snorted.
Feeling his skin sting, he rolled his shirt up revealing his abs in view and cussed.
"Shit."
"Woah, what's that." Skye can't help but to ask when he saw a red bruise marked his skin.
"I don't know and it fucking hurts. It's just like I'm being burned."
Theodore immediately knew what's happening. That kid, his powers is starting to wake up and it's happening very soon.
