Ch.2 You are the One
"What you're a Guardian? I've never met a Guardian before. Wait a minute, did you just say your mission is to protect me?"
"Yes, my mission is to keep you safe."
"But why me?"
"Because the Guardian Masters believed you are the one and I was unsure but after this I am positive."
"Ok what are you talking about, can you just please come out and give me completely answers for once."
"Luna, you don't just share the name and resemblance of the Great Lunaclipseia, you are her, in a manner of speaking."
"What in the world are you talking about?"
"Everyone knows the story of that day when Lunalesca gave up her life to create a barrier keeping demons from Gehenna from Terria, but very few know that in her last moments, she focused everything that made her her and sent it off to be reincarnated into a not yet born child. Luna that child is you."
"Ok crazy guy so it's going to look like im leaving...."
Jin grabs Luna's arm
"I know it's hard to believe but, the Lunalesca had powers far beyond any other Guardian in history. Her power even rivaled the leaders of Titan and made the three Demon Lords of Gehenna uneasy. Moments before she died she was able to inform the Masters what she was doing and when and where to look. Once you were born the Grandmaster of my village approached your parents and informed them that you might be the one."
"Wait my parents know about this? They never said anything about this to me."
"Obviously not because, what if he was wrong? Filling a child's head with delusions of grandeur could be harmful, but then what if he were right, putting this weight on a child's shoulders could also be damaging. But I would fair to guess that's why they named you after her, because they hoped and maybe even subconsciously knew that you were."
"But wait wait wait wait you said that you were sure of it. Why?"
"I briefly stood back and watched the situation unfold between you and those demons."
"YOU DID WHAT?!?"
Luna slaps Jin
"HEY WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR?!?"
"YOU JUST STOOD THERE AND WATCHED THOSE 2 DEMONS COME AT ME!!!"
"OH STOP YOUR WHINING YOU BIG BABY I WASN'T GOING TO LET ANYTHING HAPPEN TO YOU!!! Matter of fact when i was about to step in is when it happened."
"What?"
"I saw your left eye turn red and a light shine out of it then a large wave of Ki came out of you and knocked you the demons even reached me and knocked me down. That's when I knew, no way any regular human with no training could do that."
"Ki? Whats Ki? I heard one of the demons use that word."
"The best way to describe Ki is a type of Life Energy that all living things have. You, me, animals, even beings in the other words. Once a person is capable of controlling it, Ki is very multifaceted. Ki can be used to heal yourself, to make yourself stronger, faster, it can even be weaponized, and used as projectiles. The people of Titan are extremely well at using Ki in fact they are the ones who taught human world about it. Demons from Gehenna aren't as sensitive with Ki but the ones who are, are extremely powerful like the 3 Demon Lords and the other high class demons. The beings of Mythios on the other hand, all have Ki, but it is extremely rare for anyone there to be Ki sensitive probably why they mastered magic. Now as far as humans tho, finding someone who is Ki sensitive isn't as rare as on Mythios, it's still only about 10 percent of the population. That's why Lunaclipseia was so special not only is it rare, but she was on a level no human has ever been on before."
"And you're telling me I'm her?"
"A reincarnated her, yes. You don't share any of her past memories or thoughts, but what made her her yes it lives in you. And from my understanding she packaged the source of her power as a way to protect you so that when you were old enough to unleash it, it would suddenly appear so that you would not be in danger of demons coming after you at a young age."
"Well this is freaking great I don't want any of this. I just want to be an average the beautiful teenage girl I want to go out, want to have fun, hang with my friends, worry about tests, and looking good for boys, ect. I don't want any of this crap. This isn't my fight just leave me out of it."
"Well I'm sorry but you don't really have much of a choice."
"Yeah I guess you're rig.... OH MY GOD WHAT'S THAT?"
Jin turns around to see what Luna was pointing at and Luna runs off as fast as she can.
"Not going to drag me into this BS, I have a life to live. When I get home I'm going to let my mom have it for keeping all this a secret."
Luna runs the rest of the way home as fast as she can.
Luna makes it home and her little brother Kit is at the door waiting for her.
"OOOOOH Luna what you do what you do? You have someone inside waiting for you."
"What the heck are you talking about spaz?"
Luna walks in the house.
"Mom! Mom we need to talk."
Luna runs in the house and heads for kitchen looking for her mother as she passes the dining room she sees Jin sitting at the table with her mother.
With a smirk on his face Jin asks, "Oh hey Luna what took you so long?"
"But but but how?"
An understandably confused Luna stands in the dining room hall with a bewildered look on her face.
"What did you think you were going to out run me? HA! Did you not see how fast I moved in on those demons?"
"Well what are you doing here anyway? I already told you that I don't want anything to do with being a Guardian."
"Aw cool are you really a Guardian?" Kit pops in from out of nowhere excited to see a guardian in real life.
"That's right little man."
"Awesome I wish I could be a Guardian but mom won't even let me do martial arts training."
"Is That true Mrs. Yi?"
"That's right I don't want him getting involved with that stuff at all."
"Well excuse me but I'm confused you seem to not want your son to have anything to do with combat but you went as far as to name your daughter after Lunaclipseia."
"Two reasons honestly one, their father was the one that was so excited about the possibility of of our daughter being Lunaclipseia reincarnated, and secondly the reason I went along with the whole thing is I just knew she was going to be the one. I had a strange feeling about my daughter when I was still pregnant, with her long before the head guardian came to talk with us. But Kit isn't like Luna there is no reason he has to be anything but a normal boy and have a normal life."
"But what about me I want a normal life I want to be a normal girl I want..."
"CUT THE CRAP! You have been told that you were born with one of the most important responsibilities in the history of our world. That in you lives the power to save millions of lives and all you think about is yourself. THAT IS NOT THE DAUGHTER I RAISED. If your father was still alive he would be so disappointed in you."
Luna runs outside crying, Jin follows after Luna.
"Well congratulations you turned my entire home against me."
Jin shakes his head and shrugs his shoulders. "Still thinking about yourself, huh."
"Oh shut up you ass. How would you feel if out of nowhere your entire life got turned upside down?"
"I wouldn't know haven't had much of a life to turn upside down. My life has mostly consisted of training and missions, missions and training. I was chosen from a young age to be an elite guardian because of my natural Ki sensitivity. At the age of 5 without any training I manipulating Ki. When this was found out I was immediately sent Toji Village for assessment and training since that day my life has been dedicated to becoming one of the greatest guardians ever."
"Oh. I don't mean to sound ungrateful it's just a lot for a girl to take in all at once you know."
"Look I get it. But to be honest no one is forcing you to be a guardian. From my understanding the goal is to train you to use your power to be able to protect yourself."
"Protect myself from what?"
"From Lord Balthazar."
"Say what now?"
"Balthazar's plan was to somehow extract the source of Lunalesca's power and put it in himself. That's why he captured her in the first place."
"Yeah but Lunaclipseia put up a barrier to keep demons out of Terria."
"True but low class demons still make it through the barrier from time to time who's to say Balthazar doesn't send one through to get to you. At your current state you would be helpless. That's why I'm here now that I know you are the one we need to go to Toji Village and start your training."
"But we have school tomorrow can it not wait till Friday and we leave after school?"
"Luna best case scenario you will be training for the next 6 months to a year minimum."
"WHAT?!? So yeah for sure my normal life is over."
"Luna if you don't do this your life could be over period. Or even worse your family's."
"Well how do you even know Balthazar will come after me it's been 16 years maybe he forgot all about it 16 years is a long time."
"Luna Balthazar's goal is to take out the other 2 Demon Lords take over then use his combined forces to take over Human world that's not something you just forget about."
Luna feeling defeated drops her head and lets out a big sigh.
"Fine when do we leave?"
"First thing in the morning."
"OMFingG fiiiiiiiiine. I hope you know I really really really hate you right now."
