Am I really?

I slowly walk over and into my bedroom, walking in and locking the door behind me. The first thing I hear?

"You could be an actor"

And now I'm absolutely sure about who's in this dark room.

"Thanks, we were child actors"

"Why didn't you continue acting then?

What are you Yurai? Trying to be interviewer or something?

"Long story, why are we talking in the dark?"

"Because there's a sleeping baby here?"

Lillie and Yurai are standing so close to each other that their auras are mixed in together, but I can clearly tell that Rai is sleeping on the bed. All three of them are away from the light switch so I sigh, walking over to the light switch. As I'm walking there, I send a bit of mist to surround Rai, keeping him in a dark bubble. I turn the lights on to see Lillie and Yurai sat on the bed further away from me.

"Yay! Mist bubble!"

"That's the only reason I was called isn't it?"

"No?"

"And here I was, thinking that I was needed in this conversation"

"Oh no don't worry, you are."

Yurai's face suddenly changes into a much more serious face. Looks like it's time for business. There are only so many reasons why Yurai would come here, unannounced. There must have been something really big in the other world.

"There was something major wasn't there, that's why you're here right?"

Lillie just stays silent, observing our conversation.

"So..."

This is really weird. It isn't like Yurai to be this nervous about anything. So it's something really bad huh? This won't do, he needs to drop whatever bomb he's got.

"Say it"

"Okay, so, well, there's been a brand new prophecy"

"and you think it somehow relates to us?"

"not somehow, definitely, but there's a small little problem"

"Of course there is, nothing ever goes right when we're involved ey?"

"As much as I want to laugh at that, it's too true"

Lillie stands up and cuts into our conversation out of nowhere.

"Very sobering. Now, what's the problem Yu?"

Yurai looks up at Lillie, his face a mix of confusion and surprise.

"Why'd my nickname change out of nowhere?"

Oh right, we hadn't told him about the nickname change. I completely forgot about that, and judging from the look on Lillie's face, she forgot about it too.

"Yeah, erm, the baby over there, my new brother, his name is Rai"

"Oh, so that's why, it got confusing didn't it?"

"Yeah, glad you understand"

"Wasn't mad, just confused"

Oh okay, that's good. Yurai can be a bit prideful so its great that he's not particularly mad about it. We should probably start talking about whatever bad news Yurai brought from the other world.

"We should get down to business, Yurai, just say it all"

"All right, so there's a new prophecy. The main point of each line is a bit hard to figure out, so I came here to show you this in person. Wanted to make sure that no one else knows about it. I wrote it down on paper, so I'll leave that here. Tell me when you figure it out."

"Gimme that, I'm going to read it aloud"

Yurai throws over a rolled up piece of paper, made from velvet mist.

"Really? Velvet mist?"

Yu just shrugs and says "Fool proof"

He's not wrong about that, so I just shrug and start unraveling Yus velvet mist using my own.

"The abusions shall unite with a twin stars soul, reclaim what was lost so long ago, and play one final role."

A twin stars soul? Is that the start of whatever happens after? Do we have to look for a stars soul?

"Ubiquitous must split and leave."

Split from us? Or split from something else, maybe leave for us?

"Adamant shall become a foe."

become... so someone will turn against us? Or will someone unkind turn kindly?

"Sedentary will face a greater ally than ever before."

That doesn't sound too good... Why would you 'face' an ally?

"Nebulous shall find it's last home."

Last home? As in they'll die? Or will they find a certain place that they don't want to leave? Does everything have to have a good side and a bad side?

"Omnipotent will learn that somethings are unsavable."

Oh... that's got to be bad... Can't see anything good for this one

"Bodacious will finally find its joy, only to watch it be ripped away."

If this is meant to be a happy prophecy, it's doing a pretty bad job right now

"Infernal will be returned to its rightful place with Scintillating by its side."

I can't bring myself to look up from the paper, so I don't. I don't look up, I don't want to know how kitten looks right now. But I can't let them know that, so I take a deep breath before speaking.

"Okay, so from what I can gather, each trait seems to be a person. There's lines that can be applied in a good way or a bad way for us. Personally, I think two of the names are already pretty clear about the who they're referring to"

"Yeah, but it's not completely clear right?"

Ever the optimist aren't you kitten? Too bad I'm not that positive.

"Sure, there's a small chance that the last two aren't us but kitten, thinking logically, how low are the chances of it not being us?"

"I'm not going to answer that, actually, I won't even think about it"

'I won't even think about it' my ass, I can basically see the gears turning in your head. I bet if I looked into what you were thinking right now, I'd have the answer before me, wouldn't I kitten? But I won't press too hard, and I won't look at the answer either, that's up for the future to decide.

"Do you two know who can fit into each name? We need at least six more names, assuming that both of your names fit into one each."

"Was there anything else when the prophecy was issued? Did Levi say anything about all of this?"

"Levi said that one thing that's for sure is the identity of the last name"

"That's it? Levi couldn't get anything else?"

"Nope, but it seemed like he had something? He said to let him think about it."

I'm so frustrated at Levi right now, like I get it if he didn't want to tell his brother but couldn't he have texted me or something? Sent something to tell me?

"Okay, sure but couldn't he have-"

"Calm down pup, I'm sure he has his own reasons"

I just sigh angrily and plop myself down next to Rai's dark bubble. I'm not actually that angry, I've already learnt my lesson, getting angry isn't the way to go. But thinking? Thinking is great, especially for a situation like this.

"Okay, so I'll leave this paper with you guys and I have to go now."

"Yeah? You forgot the cameras"

"Shit. You're right, can you do it?"

"Are you actually asking me that?"

"Listen, black mist is the coolest type of mist and I love seeing it in action"

"For real?"

"For real."

I roll my eyes at Yurai, and look over at Lillie for confirmation. She doesn't say anything, just sighs and looks at me expectantly. I guess that means I'm allowed to use mist?

"Fine, but I'm leaving this room first"

"Sure, should I take Rai with me when I go out?"

"Do whatever, and Yurai? Nice contacts"

"Wrong name, I'm Turner"

"Oh yeah, thank you for not doing your camera work"

"You're welcome"

I just walk towards the door, unlock it and step out, leaving it open by a small crack. As I'm stepping out, I take back the mist that's being used on Rai and I can see Lillie picking him up after the mist dissipates. I start walking back down the hallway, mist unfurling from the air around me and shooting towards the open crack in the door. After a few seconds, I'm sure that the mist has finished its job so I retract it all, absorbing it back into my body. After I've absorbed all the black mist from the room, I can hear Yurai, no, Turner coming out of the room with Lillie following close behind.
