So Helen they get kicked out of castle and Clare they meet her for the first time.
----------------------------------------
Clare and the girls stepped out of the bushes by the side of the road. “How’d she know we hid ourselves,” Kelly asked. “So what is it you want to know,” Clare asked. “You 5 were listening in but. Judging from your earlier conversation you weren’t involved with the queen,” Helen said. “How’d you guess we weren’t involved with the monstrous lady with the dress,” Flora said.
“You do know that you are criticizing my half-sister. Also you’re my sister from my real mother so don’t you even try,” Reina countered. Her arms were crossed in front of her chest. “Yea you got (giggles) mother’s chest alright,” Flora agreed.
“And you’re as flat as wash board Flora,” grumbled Reina. “Only you were the voices I heard above us on the balcony,” Helen said. “Wait so you’re saying they been tailing us since the castle,” Tess said.
“That is so but you sent a beacon to Elena. I’m very sure she said she was waiting a few more centuries before she expected her sister to reappear,” Clare said.
“And you seem to know more than the queen that called us to these lands,” Helen said. “Depends on what kinda of information you’re seeking,” Clare answered. “I’ll start with a simple one who’s Elena,” Helen said. Tess looked confused as she glanced to Clare then back to Helen.
“Helen was it. Elena has many names and myths on how she got her nickname. The Witch of beginnings, the magic of magic beginnings, the hero’s disaster, the demise of kingdoms. She’s the witch whom brought magic into our world. Some humans believe that it was she not the elf goddess Beliora of creation and destruction nor the human goddess Retina of all creations that brought about our world.”
“Elena’s been alive since the beginning when the gods were the ones that created this world with the titans. But she has many vessels which she can transfer her consciousness into to use. I’m but one out of trillions of her vessel. But since her physical body is a wake in this time. I guess she won’t be possessing anyone anytime soon.”
“I see and you said I was her little sister,” Helen said. “Yes it’s the closest thing you can get,” Clare said. Flora flinched as she looked at Clare. “Did you say you were one of that Elena’s vessel. Like the actual thing exists,” Flora said stunned.
“You sent a beacon to her when you touched the crystal. I know since I have a mental link with her. But I will warn you nothing good comes from being involved with her,” Clare warned. “I see,” Helen said. She bowed to Clare then turned to Tess who seemed more shocked at the conversation they just had. “Wait you believe her when she said there exists gods and titans here and they created this world,” Tess said.
“Whether you believe me or not is your issue. Jena and Kelly let’s head back to the old man,” Clare said. “Good bye then,” Reina said nonchalant. “How can you not be fazed by the subject earlier,” Flora asked. Reina shrugged then looked at Clare with a smile. “Before I forget Helen. Yu Mei and Elena were not on the best terms as sisters. They were always at war, so do be cautious of your surroundings,” Clare said.
“Can I ask you a question as her reincarnation,” Helen said. “If I can answer it for you then gladly,” Clare said.
“How did Yu Mei die,” Helen asked. “By Elena.” Helen nodded in understanding while Tess stood there mouth a gape as she seemed more than just shocked at how calm the two were. “Good bye then,” Helen bowed. Clare stared back at the 15 year old pink girl then shrugged. “Kelly we’re taking the long way home though,” Clare said. “Can we go bird watching first,” Kelly asked. Everyone cringed at her words. Hearing this Helen tilted her head as she wondered why the mood had turned sour. (Also they haven’t left yet.)
“The only birds are sister is man eating birds. Even we half vampires have fear of those things. I don’t wish to die half way early nor do I wish to experience that kind of thing you masochist,” Jena yelled. “I think the dragons are more interesting,” Clare said. The three left with haste leaving the others in the road by the city gates. “So how’d you two get to know a vampire,” Helen asked.
“Aren’t you blind how’d you know they were vampires,” Flora asked. Tess gave Flora a look like duh they said it that they were half vampires. “So what are they? Half humans,” Tess asked. “Actually the two twins with her were half elves,” Reina said. “And was Clare the mother of them,” Helen asked. “No. Why’d you even ask that,” Flora said. “Clare’s a half vampire and devil. She’s not even close to being a elf.”
“Sorry it’s just the vibe I got from the girls. It was like they were proud of her. So I was thinking that she raised them herself,” Helen said. “You aren’t wrong there,” Flora muttered.
Clare stared at the greyish red valley in front of her and the two girls. “So when you said we were detouring long way home you meant explore right,” Kelly ask. There was no answer from Clare but her eyes glowed with happiness when she saw the valley in from of them. “And she just ignored you,” Jena said. “Oh fine ignore the talking nice twin,” Kelly mumbled. “Any clue where we are,” Jena asked. “No. But I rather we explore since we’re finally out of the underground hideout.” Jena smiled when she saw Clare’s face happily lit up. Kelly gave her sister a questioning look like aren’t you going to take her back with us. Instead her sister smiled and shrugged. “I know I’m always the one joking when I’m with you two but this is serious. We’ve got no clue where we are so why don’t we go back home and have one of our other mothers investigate then go out into the world.”
“Denied,” Clare said. Judging by her voice she seemed excited by now her face looked serious. “Aunty I know you’re strong but us two can’t do anything against curses or poison. Much less vampire hunters,” Kelly reasoned. “And they’d be,” Clare asked. “We’ll be fine Aunt Clare can handle healing us on her own,” Jena confidently said.
They both walked behind Clare in awe at the red grass in the valley. “So Aunt Clare doesn’t know everything after all,” Jena said. ‘No. I haven’t a clue to things that were altered by the timeline after the mess I made,’ Clare thought. “So what if there are things I don’t understand,” Clare said. Clare’s eyes went to the small tents ahead of them. It was a small village living on the red valley. She stared at the brown tents for a while but only sighed.
“It’s in broad daylight again if you two haven’t noticed,” Clare said. “Right we all ran 3 days without resting,” Jena said. “Why don’t we rest with them,” Kelly asked. Kelly’s brow knit into a scowl as she looked at Clare for a response. Jena walked up to the people gathering outside the camping site. “Watch me,” Jena said. Her twin sister rolled her eyes instead, Clare shrugged.
“We are also able to communicate on our own,” Kelly said.
“You said that like we’re not included as her group,” Clare corrected. Jena talked with the elders of the village. Clare’s eyes seemed to glow in curiosity as she looked at the beastmen. “It’s a first time I’ve seen one,” Clare said. “You’re kidding right,” Kelly said. “Like you never met them before though your age says 213,” Kelly said.
“Let’s just say I’ve been trying to keep your father alive for 200 years and my 13 years was spent locked in castle walls. So you can sum it up that I never saw one before,” Clare said. Her eyes went to the beast girls with the wolf ears and her brows twitched.
“I know that look,” Jena said. She had come back from talking with the elders and was very happy to see her aunt have the urge to pet one of the little girls. “I told them our circumstances and asked if we could stay a few days,” Jena said. Clare was surprised the kids all crowded around her and touched her hair and touched her dress with curiosity.
“Ah,” Jena happily sighed as she looked at the troubled Clare. “Clare’s white and green laced dress made out of silk is getting attacked you know,” Kelly said. “But it’s such a happy picture,” Jena said. The children were climbing all over Clare as if she were something new they never saw before. “Hey, Clare it’s been a while,” a soft soothing girl’s voice called out to her. Clare’s eyes widen at the young girl standing before her as the kids all hid behind her. “It’s been a while Alista Beloria Jem,” Clare said. “Hahaha only you would remember that I’m related to that bitch of a goddess,” Alista said.
Alista’s sky blue hair shined in the moon light as she stared back at Clare with those gentle green eyes of her. “So what is a ¼ demi god doing among the beastmen,” Clare asked. “How about I show you my status this once since you did save me after your grandfather got married with that elf,” Alista said. “It’ll be my honor,” Clare said. “Show status,” Alista said.

“I see why you hid it when I saved you from the Cyclopes. You can’t use magic even though you have magic. And your destruction level is more outrageous than mine,” Clare said. “Glad to see you’re still alive too vampire girl,” Alista blushed.
The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
“By the way these two girls with you don’t seem to be yours,” Alista said. “Oh Jena’s the one that talked to the elders. And the grumpy one on my left is Kelly,” Clare said. Alista pulled Clare to the camp fire and sat them down. “How about some of your stories of what happened when I last saw you when you were 15,” Alista asked. A mischievous look on her face as she winked to Jena and Kelly. “Really you want my life story already. It might take days,” Clare said. “We have all the time in the world here don’t we,” Alista laughed.
“Right Elena is going to war with Yu Mei’s reincarnation and the unconcerned demigod is like tell me a story,” Clare whispered under her breath. “Where do I start then,” Clare asked. “Why you had to chase the Cyclops and find me,” Alista said. “Geh. That’s from the beginning then,” Clare said. Alista winked to the two girls. “Fine. It was two years after I found grandfather Aran. He was getting married with the elf noble girl Iliona. Unfortunately as I was getting dressed as the bride’s maid,” Clare said horrified. “Wait I can’t even imagine Aunt Clare in a exquisite dress like that,” Kelly said laughing.
Clare winced as she looked at Kelly. “Just so you know that was your mother’s wedding. I didn’t expect to see your father propose on the spot when he met her too. Damn he was persistent with her for 2 years and she finally gave in,” Clare said. “Didn’t really expect the old man to be serious. Anyway during the wedding…….she went out on a walk in the morning and never returned so we had to go looking for her.”
Clare’s face turned bright red as she continued the story. “So I and a few of our friends had to go look for her. Which led me to the Cyclops den.”
“You left out the part that you came in a bride’s maid dress. And you were perfectly fighting the cyclops off without getting the dress dirty. Do be exact no one could’ve pulled that off but you. I mean the place was in a cave inside a forest,” Alista said. “Was it,” Clare blushed. “I helped them out of the cave and back to the wedding. Picking up Alista who was also left there by the cyclops.”
“Now that wasn’t so hard to tell them the story. Or was it,” Alista smiled. ‘I never want to piss you off again,’ Clare thought. “And you left right after that too.”
Clare laughed nervously and looked at Jena for help. “Aunt Clare can really be of help. She’s great at archery, knifes, sword, the halberd, spear, javelin, sabre, whip, boxing, locks, medicine, healing, and magic,” Jena said. “Why is that,” asked Alista accusingly. “Not because I wanted to,” Clare said. She stood up and left the four of them by the camp fire. “I didn’t know her family was a sore subject,” Alista said. “Clare speaks fondly about her mother. But when her father’s mentioned she’s closed up. Sometimes it’s like she’s not even there,” Kelly said.
“Sorry I didn’t mean to remind her. Is her father dead or something,” Alista asked. “No but she has scars on her back that she won’t talk about. When asked how was her family like to her we only got vague answers,” Jena said. “Oh I didn’t mean to,” Alista said sadly. “We know it’s not your fault that she’s in such a state. For the past 200 years that our father known her, he said she gets really sentimental in our garden or the library.”
Her eyes went to the twins stunned that they were talking about their aunt in this way. “But you know she’s the one that raised both of us with our siblings. She’s the one that taught us each how to defend ourselves. She taught me how to use the knife and bow,” Jena said. “Me it’s medicine,” Kelly answered. “Back home she taught our half siblings. Redi was taught the spear and he’s proud and father’s fond of him. Nora our older sister was taught magic by Clare and the two are as close as real sisters,” Jena said.
Jena gave Alista a sad knowing smile. “Don’t be so hard to Aunt Clare other wise you will regret it for sure.” Kelly nodded to her twin’s words. “Why do you say that,” Alista asked. “Because I have a say in it,” Elena said from behind them. Alista flinched when she saw the clear glass like eyes of Elena. Her dark purple blue hair burned in a deep blue color of flames as she took off the hood of her cloak.
“Whom are you to attack one of my vessels,” Elena asked. “Also the gods are preparing for a war so who’s side are you on demigod.”
“Wait. No I mean I meant…….uh I didn’t mean to harm her,” Alista said confused. “Keep your teasing to a minimum that girl has suffered enough by her father’s hand,” Elena said. Clare stared off at the 5 blue moons. “It’s the same since then hasn’t it been Ritsu,” Clare asked. “So you’re not asking my sister about the time frame anymore. Or have you quit caring now,” Ritsu answered back. “The titan of time is being vague with her answers now. It’s pointless to ask her,” Clare said.
“Glad you understand why she blames me for acting so non-royalty like. Nor am I going to try being like she asks. It’s better to replace me if she’s gonna complain. But then again she’s been complaining for so long I just stopped counting. Right your problem. Here’s a advice to you, us Titans also have creation magic but it’s a little different since it goes against the laws of this worlds and the gods. You’ll get what I mean also create something already aren’t you bored of waiting,” Ritsu said.
With that the ruler of Titans vanished without leaving a trace of her being there. “So she leaves me out on the red grass valley plains,” Clare sighed. ‘That and her hint was vague. Create something.’
Light filled Clare’s hand as she thought the words create. Her eyes clinked as a window appeared in front of her and her surrounding vanished into darkness. “Welcome to the creation system used by the titans,” a female voice said. “That voice sounds machine like too,” Clare said. “I’m an artificial system set up by the titans for the titans. Meaning I’m here to help,” artificial female voice said.
“That’s confusing. Don’t you have a name,” Clare said. “No. Since when I’m used I’m referred as a thing not a person,” it answered her back. “Too confusing. How about calling you….. K. No Jade. Nana. I got it Tia. Short for Titan’s Information Artificial life form,” Clare said.
“So what can I help you with,” Tia asked. “How does creation here work,” Clare asked. “Since you know the principles for mana and that all life form needs it. Whereas here you can create without using mana like how the gods us magic creation to make a person or animal and place.”
“Oh meaning this place has no strings attached. And they can be implanted into the system later,” Clare said. “In a way yes. Is there any questions,” Tia asked. “No other ones,” Clare said. “would you like to create a female or male,” Tia asked. “Girl,” Clare said. “Animal or person,” Tia asked. “For race make her a phoenix,” Clare said. “Animal or the race that can shape shift between forms,” Tia asked. “The latter one,” Clare answered. “Age,” Tia asked. “10 years old. Black hair, red eyes,” Clare said. “Your amusing over the fact that someone might yell demon on sight aren’t you,” Tia asked. “Yea that’d be all,” Clare said ignoring Tia’s warning. A small black haired girl appeared next to Clare. “So what will the attire be,” Tia asked. With a hint of sadness.
“How about light green kimono,” Clare said. A green kimono appeared on the girl. “And your creation is done will there be anything else you need,” Tia said. “You did say you were the help system put for the Titans. So can’t you help with status system and those sorts of things,” Clare asked. “I’m sorry but that is not within my domain. I can’t hack my sister’s system because your needs but I can allow you access to her now since you asked. So that you’d be helped on your journey,” Tia said. “That explains a lot,” Clare said.
Clare blinked at Tia that appeared before her as she was sent back to the valley. ‘So she had white hair and glass like skin. Her eyes also glowed light blue. Guess she really was artificial.’ (The skin was dead giveaway why didn’t she believe Tia when she explained)
“Hello,” said a soft girly voice that sounded like it’d break from just the tiniest touch. “Hello Nel,” Clare said. “Is that what you named me,” Nel asked. “Yes,” Clare said. “Now you two are rude,” said the status system. Nel looked around confused when she heard the voice in her head. “Oh how great this is and they make me seem like I’m the insane one,” the status system complained. “Sorry I didn’t think she’d link us right away,” Clare said.
“(Dry laugh) Yea you didn’t think that me as a status system would have a soul from another world for me to work.” I think we pissed her off Clare eyed Nel. “Hey I’m right here and yes that shows on my status screen too you know.”
“How about I name you Oliva. Since you sound so bossy for a status system,” Clare said. “Oh you want bossy how’d you like this now,” Oliva said. Clare just stared at Nel’s status.

“Oh you copied my status over except the skills and affinity. Yep titles no one would believe too,” Clare said. “Shut it,” Olive pouted. “You know for just a soul bobbing up and down as well as talking to us through the status window it’s just sad.”
“Stop badmouthing me,” Olive said. "I couldn't really mess with her status except her titles. Your both monsters."
----------------------------------------
Clare didn't mean to get Olive mad at her. She was just being blunt.
