(The bus is about to leave, I'll be back whenever I get home )

"Right," she nodded with a smile.

Unknown by Kyoya and Moon, Blake kept hidden the truth about the other persona. It wasn't all that different than what he had told them, but it wasn't all right.

As they came to the top of the dune, a mausoleum came into view. It was made of dark grey marble, and was bare from any decorations beside a flower painted on the doors. The petals were the same shade as Moon's eyes when she used magic, not matching anything else on Earth. The plant was a cross of a rose and ivy.

(Otayz.)

"Beautiful...absolutely beautiful." Kyoya said, his eyes were sparkling at the sight, "So, the Ruby lies here?" The ring was glowing a soft bronze color, it was fairly unnoticeable.

The shade nodded. "That's the place."

The witch furrowed her brow, her hand reaching for the bracelet she'd taken from the king. "I draw the same flower all the time."

"Perhaps this is your grandparents's final resting place?" Kyoya said, "Maybe the old bastard was lying about killing them..."

“Only the original shade settlers were put inside,” Blake said. “If you tell me their names, I’ll know if they are or not.”

“Sarah Meyers and Elijah Kane.” Hope twinkled in her eyes as she waited with baited breath.

“Meyers, and Kane… No, I’m afraid there’s no one by those names.”

"Sorry for getting your hopes up, Moon..." Kyoya felt bad for bringing it up, looking a bit down.

“It’s fine,” she reassured him.

“Let’s get going,” Blake suggested gently. “The sun’s going to set in a few hours, and we have a long way to go back to town.”

"Right. The ring's glowing brighter, so we're getting closer to it." Kyoya said, perking up a bit.

They all went inside, Seth closer to the group than before. It was just as breath taking as the exterior had been made with the same marble as well. It was only slightly darker than the daylight at the time as torches burned on the walls.

"It's beautiful...I haven't seen anything quite like this since I found the Pearl of the Oceans..." Kyoya was amazed, "You shades really know beautiful architecture." His ring continued to slowly grow brighter as they continued through the building.

“I was never told where exactly the gem is,” Blake informed. “The shades worried that people would try to torture us into giving the location away.”

“Don’t worry,” Moon smiled. “We’ll find it.”

“I’ll wait outside. If you need me, just yell.” He walked out the door.

"The ring will point us in the direction. It'll begin to pulse as we approach it. The glowing light from the ring also helps." Kyoya said, "Thanks for your help getting us out here, sir."

When they were by themselves, Drop took another look around the spacious room. “Which way does your ring say to go?”

"Hmm...the left." Kyoya said, heading towards the direction. "I wonder what the sword will look like?"

“Probably like a sword,” joked Moon, following his lead.

"I sure hope so." Kyoya retorted, laughing a bit. "How is it that we get along so well?"

“I don’t know, and was wondering that myself. My mother would say something along the lines of, ‘Mother Earth has gifted you someone special.’”

"Funny, my father said the same thing about his wife. It's ironic really, my parents met much like we did, two classmates that slowly bonded...and, well the rest is history."

“Huh. That’s really odd in a cool way,” she smiled.
