Chapter 7

Fragile Eternity

   When she approached the main door of the mansion, Suho preceded Lara to open the doors. She felt it was not really necessary but then smiled slightly and said, "Thank you."

   “No need to say that, princess...” Suho said.

   She walked down the stairs and looked at 12 people gathered in the center of the courtyard. Then they recognized the presence of Lara. The ‘Trainer’ was in the middle of them and then revealed himself. Seeing Lara, the trainer spontaneously bowed as if saluted Lara and smiled. The 12 other guys who saw it followed the trainer’s action and also bowed toward her.

   She was not feeling right, treated like that and finally decided to bow as well as if returned the greeting.

   “Greetings, Princess Lariena Lara Clarence.” said the trainer.

   “Let me introduce myself, my name is Claude Ralph William. I was commissioned by King Charles and Queen Victoria many years ago to find a bodyguard for you.”

   “Greetings Claude Ralph William, thank you for coming. Would you like to get inside so we can discuss this with more comfortable?” said Lara.

   “Thank you for your hospitality, Princess. But I prefer to explain it here, if you do not mind.” said Claude.

   “Oh alright, then.” said Lara agreed.


   “You do realize that they are not ordinary people because before this they were exist in the form of cats, these young men came from a Planet named EXO. Each of them has their own strengths and they are the best so far.” said Claude again.

   “May I ask your permission to show their power?” asked Claude politely to her. Assuming that Lara would be easier to believe him if she saw it directly.

   Feeling weird because she was treated formally like that, lara still felt unusual. But then not too concerned about it and said, “Yes, please.”

   “Very well, let’s start from Xiumin." said Claude. Xiumin then stepped forward. Soon, he raised both his hands and then made a move like collecting the empty air in the palm of his hand and then closed hist empty fist. Then he slowly opened it and there was a collection of white powder and he blew it out slowly. She could feel the cold air flowing from Xiumin’s hand, assuming it was a snowflake.

   “He can freeze something. His power is Ice/Frost. Oh yeah, Xiumin is the oldest here.” said Claude explaining.

   Then, as if it was not enough, Xiumin decided to show his power again. This time he walked to the fountain and then with his hand movements, all of the water suddenly froze. He returned the frozen water to normal before finally returning back to his early position, and told them that he had finished showing his power.

   “Next, Luhan.” Luhan stepped forward.

   “His power is Telekinesis and Telepathy.” said Claude.

   “You already know about this ‘Telepathy’, right?” Luhan said voicing sound in Lara's head.

   “Yes, he had done a lot of Telepathy to me earlier.” Lara said to Claude.

   Luhan then stepped forward to reveal his Telekinesis power. He stared at the apple tree and then with the movement of his hand, he plucked the apple gently without touching the apple then flew it towards Lara. She then reached out her hand and the apple fell into her hands.

   “I can move objects around me wherever I want.” said Luhan.

   “Next is Kris.” A moment later Kris drifted from the field under his feet then flied away to the sky. Shortly after he flied back down with a slow speed and then stood back in his place.

   “I can fly in the air.” said Kris.

   “Suho.” called the trainer. Suho took a step forward and moved his hand toward the fountain again and a second later all the water in the fountain was forming a clot and followed Suho’s hand movements.

   “I can control the water.” Suho said.

   “Then...Lay.” Lay stepped forward. Before he began to explain his powers, he bowed and greeted her again.

“Greeting Princess...my power is healer/healing. I also can revive dead plants.” said Lay. Lara then returned the greeting, and bowed down at a glance.

“He was also the one that healed you when your head were knocked on the wooden headboard bed this morning.” said Suho

   ‘Oh, yes. Now that I remembered again, the pain was quickly disappeared after I hit the board.’ said Lara in her inner heart, recognizing Lay’s power.    “Baekhyun.” Claude called his name. Baekhyun stepped forward and then moving his hands to the sky, immediately the clouds blocking the sun’s light and the sunny weather had changed into cloudy and dark immediately.

   “My power is light.” explained Baekhyun

   “Next, Chen.” Chen stepped forward.

   “Hello Princess, I’m Chen. I can control the thunder and lightning.” said Chen then he lifted his left hand upward and lightning appeared not far from the direction of his hand.

   “Chanyeol.” Chanyeol stepped forward, then suddenly a fire bursted out from his right hand.

   “My power is Fire.” Chanyeol said.

   “Then, D.O.” D.O stepped forward explained about his strength, "I  can control the nature.. Anything that connected with the earth, I can control it.” then he put his hand on the ground, seconds later the ground surface around them started to lift up in the air.

   “Then Tao.” said Claude. Tao took a step forward, then a second later all that was in the mansion courtyard except Tao and Lara stopped moving. Time seemed to stop spinning.

   “I can control the time.” said Tao. The next second they were all moving again and time was spinning again.

   “I’m done showing my power.” Tao Said to Claude while smiling.

   “Kai.” Kai took a step forward. Then seconds later he was behind Lara, then on her right side, then in front of her and he eventually returned to its original position.

   “My power is Teleportation.” said Kai, smirking.

   “Lastly, the youngest here, Sehun.” Sehun moved his hand toward the trees, and a second later the trees were blown by strong winds.

   “I can control the wind. ” said Sehun

   “Now that they all have showed their power to you, I shall explain more things.” said Claude.

   “They are all your bodyguards from now on. You actually have incredible power exceeds all the power that they have. All this time your power was asleep and on you 18th birthday, the power began to awake. It is also largely driven by the presence of these 12 young men. To wake your strength, you have to bond with these 12 young men. The King and Queen actually didn’t want you to have this power, but unfortunately if you do not immediately awaken the power, your life will be in danger. The only key is to get a strong bond with each other.” said Claude.

   ‘Really? I get to have one of these super power?’ said Lara in her mind.

   “What kind of power do I exactly have, Claude?” asked Lara curious.

   “Unfortunately, I still can not tell you about it, Princess...You will know when your power has awaken.” said Claude disappointed not being able to tell her.

"Well, last thing before I go." Claude said as he took something from his pocket, a rectangular box. Claude opened the box and showed it to Lara so that she could see the content of the box. The box contained an emblem. There were 12 different symbols fused together with a red rose symbol at the center of the emblem. The emblem decorated with silver strap so the owner could use it as a necklace.

   "It's beautiful." she said, expressing how she thought about the pendant.

   "It belongs to you." said Claude.

   "Here let me put it on for you." Chen said.

   Lara nodded and then turned her back. Chen rushed draping the necklace around Lara’s neck.

  “Lara, the pendant you're wearing is very important and can be used for an important things later. But, I’m sorry that I can’t tell you yet.” said Claude again.

"Well, I have to go now. Farewell, Princess. Long live the Princess." he said again before finally stepped on to some kind of portal and completely disappeared, without Lara being able to say thank you or asked some more questions.


Note: I was kind of confused and frustrated to translate the part where they were showing their power. Can you get what I was going to say? LOL. I'll try my best>.<
