Book Two:
The Begining of the End

(Children laughing)

Hey, Riku! Come play with us!
Riku: No I'm fine here.
Karina: Oh, come on you're no fun!
Come and battle with us. I'm a great warrior princess from Corrilia!
You can be the Space Pirate that tries to take over the Temple and kill everyone!
Riku: No. I'm gonna go help Mom.
Amon: Party pooper! Come play or I'll cut you down with my blade...!
Riku: Fine, but I don't wanna be the "Space Pirate".
Karina: Then you can be the King that tells us who to kill!
Amon: Aww man... I have to listen to Riku?
Karina: Come on, it'll be fun! *smiles*
Amon: Oh, alright. But can I kill him after?
Riku: If you think you can! *grabs a woden sword and swings at Amon*
Mom: Come on kids time for dinner!
Amon: Ok Mom, we'll be there in a minute!
Mom: Ok, Remember to wash up first.
Kids: Ok!

(That night Riku has a nightmare of War and Death. Not knowing, it was the future he was seeing.)

Riku: AHHH!!!!
Mom: *runs to the kids' shared room* Riku, whats wrong?
Riku: I had a bad dream.
Mom: Oh Honey, it's ok. I'll get you some milk to help you sleep better.
Riku: Ok, but hurry back I don't wanna be alone.
Mom: I'll be back in a flash. *smiles*

(Mom walks down to get Riku some milk when she slips and falls down the wet stairs, left by the kids, breaking her neck. Riku runs down to check on his mother, after hearing the sound of something noisy outside his room.)

Riku: Mom...Mom! Wake up. Please wake up! *cries* MOMMY!!!
(Riku, after seeing his mother dead on the floor, runs out the door and doesn't stop. The next morning, Amon and Karina wake up to find their mother lying on the floor dead and Riku is nowhere to be found. Later, the Peace Keepers come to investigate what had happened to the childrens' Mother, and send a search party out to look for Riku.)

Peace Keeper: We're sorry kids, but we're not sure what happened here. It looks like she just slipped and fell down the stairs...We found some finger prints that we're going to run down at the lab.

Amon: The only finger prints you'll find are ours...no one ever comes to our house...

Peace Keeper: We hope that's so...
As for your brother...Riku was it?...we couldn't find him...
We'll keep looking as long as it takes...trust me.

Amon: So where are we gonna go? What are we gonna do without our Mom?

Peace Keeper: Well, We'll have to set you both up in a home for children with no parents...
I'm sorry, but that's the best we can do.
I'd like to get your information, along with your brothers', if that's alright.

Amon: ...It's fine...I'm 15, she's 12 and our Brother, Riku, is 13...

Peace Keeper: Ok... Thanks kids. I'm truely sorry about your mother. As for Riku...we'll keep looking. Thats all we can do. I'm sorry we can't do more.

Amon: You keep saying that...
