One goal in mind

,Life..
Life is something wonderful ...
.. but why..
Why do so many people give up their once-in-a-lifetime lives ..?
... because they no longer have a goal in mind ... '

Kana looked very shocked: "These pictures .. no .."
She was about to run into the village when Raiji held her.
"Let go of me!", She yelled at him and was about to tear himself away when he tried to say calmly: "If you go in there you will burn!"
".. but ..," she replied.
"He's right, Kana!", Shina began, "... we can't do anything at the moment. I'm sorry, we can only wait and see ..."
"No ...," Kana replied, shaking her head, "... there is a way to get in there immediately!"
The two siblings looked at her in amazement.
".. but for that you have to let go of me Raiji ...""Kana ... promise me you won't endanger yourself," Raiji said softly and let go of her.
Thereupon Kana nodded, took a few steps forward, brought her arms into a certain position so that they were mostly directed towards the village, closed her eyes and shouted a magic formula.
Shortly afterwards, thunderclouds came over Lilyvillage and it rained pouring out of them, so that the fire in the village was quickly extinguished and because the other two looked at the rain in astonishment and Kana himself had closed her eyes, they didn't even notice how Kana ' s crystal lit up blue.
She quickly opened her eyes and ran into the village.
Dead people were already lying at the entrance and she checked whether any of them were still alive.
When she couldn't find anyone, she ran further into the village.
The other two followed slowly and looked around again and again. "Do you feel that?"Shina looked at her brother.
He just said: "What should I feel?" "Well this aura .."
Raiji gave her an unsuspecting look, from which Shina could already tell that he had no idea what it was about.
"Well, brother," she began to explain, ".. I don't know how you are, but I feel an aura, a negative aura ..."
Just then, when he was about to say something about it, she interrupted him: "It's okay, you don't have to understand it .. not yet .."
Raiji just shook his head and pulled her wrist to the main square and looked around.
He saw Kana sitting on the edge of a well with a sigh and walked over to her. He had let go of his sister a long time ago, more precisely since he saw the black-haired girl sitting there.
Raiji sat down next to her and said, blinking at the sky: "Found no one ..?"
The addressed nodded.
"Hmm ...," he thought, "... maybe we can find some clues here why this village was destroyed ..""I think ... Because of the library ..."
Raiji looked at her surprised: "Because of the library?"
"Yes," she closed her eyes and continued, ".. Lilyvillage is known for its knowledge. Although this village is very small, many people come here to stand in the library and read a book. You could say Lilyvillage has all the knowledge of the entire continent, perhaps also of the entire world. Perhaps someone didn't want a particular piece of knowledge to be read by someone in particular. "
"Wow," marveled Raiji, "you know a lot."
"Not really," she replied, "... only my big sister told me about it. She always tells me a lot, but when she tells me about places she never tells me where they are."
“Why is that?” He looked at her in amazement.
"I don't know .. sorry ..""It doesn't matter," and when he smiled at her at his words, she had to smile back.

At the same time Shina looked around a couple of buildings.
She wanted to find out where this negative aura came from, but no matter where she looked, she found nothing, nothing, and also no living being that radiated this energy until she gave up her search and slowly went back to the other two.

"You know, Raiji," Kana began, ".. yesterday, before you found me, I saw exactly these pictures of the village being destroyed. I don't know if it happened when I saw it, or if It was a vision of the future, but I felt sorry for the people who had to suffer here. I felt a thousand stitches in my body, every pain in this moment for a person who had died. I feel the same suffering when one of my friends puts his soul to you Crystal loses. It hurts .. hurts so much .. "Raiji listened to her and only nodded a few times, but inwardly he was amazed at this sensitive girl, then he heard her continue speaking and standing up: "Maybe I'm not strong .. Maybe I'm not smart, but I know that I have friends ... and for them I have a goal in mind! I want to stand up for people, I want to stand up for those who are important to me, ... even if I may have to die in the process, but that I prefer, because I don't want my friends to be engulfed in the darkness of the crystals, I'll save everyone !! ..., "she stopped for a moment and turned to Raiji and smiled," ..That is my goal..."

All we need

'All I need .. That is yours!'

".. and with this goal we will help you .."
Kana turned around and saw Shina in front of her who had a smile on her face and nodded.Raiji got up, went to it and nodded as well.
"You do so much for me and I can't give you anything to show my sincere thanks ..," Kana said softly.
".. but, but ..," said Raiji with a grin, lifted a finger and nudged her nose, ".. you are giving us your friendship! This is the most important thing we can get for us ..."
The black-haired girl nodded slightly and had to smile, while Shina grinned too.
"Let's go on. We can't help these people here anyway," Kana sighed softly and when the three were about to leave the village they heard voices.
Shina quickly jumped onto one of the many roofs and hid behind a fireplace.
Raiji looked around quickly, then gently took Kana by the wrist and pulled her behind the large fountain.
"Oh no," you could hear as a girl with a white dress, tiara, brown eyes and light brown hair, surrounded by many soldiers, walked into the village, "Lilyvillage .. Everything has been destroyed.How did that happen? "
The girl made a sign and one of the soldiers, with red hair and dark red eyes, came up to her.
"Captain Kaito on the spot, Princess Aya!" He said quickly and you could see that he was holding a lance in one hand, probably as a weapon.
"I beg you. Search the village for the living!"
"You don't need that anymore! All people are dead!"
The brown-haired girl named Aya and the soldier, who was probably called Kaito, looked in the direction from which the voice was coming.
There she stood. Kana had got up and was looking over at them seriously. Raiji, who had held her hand, was visibly surprised by her reaction and was pulled up because of the handle.
,Great. Those idiots! , 'thought Shina and jumped down to the two of them. Immediately all soldiers went into attack position, but the princess gave them a sign whereupon they put their weapons back in their pockets.Then she said to them: "Who are you? Are you those who should have these people on your conscience?"
"No, your Majesty," her Kana replied, "We are only travelers who happened to come to this village. We immediately looked for the living, but unfortunately found no one."
After these words, Raiji looked at the girl with the black hair in amazement.
He didn't know exactly what surprised him about her, but he knew that this girl fascinated him in some way.
"I thank you," Aya began, ".. I thank you for standing up for this village. But we cannot let these people linger on this ground, they deserve to be buried in a grave. I would I would be happy if you would help me. "
All three nodded and helped. Nobody knows how long it took to bury the people, but when they were done, the sun was going down.Thereupon the princess said to the three: "I would like to invite you to my castle, so to speak as a thank you for your help and ... it occurs to me. I don't even know your names, should I know them?"
Once again the three nodded. Kana looked at the two of them and Shina and Raiji returned their gaze, then she said: "I am Kana. This next to me are Raiji ..," she pointed to him, ".. and Shina ..," to which she then followed pointed.
"Well, I'm Princess Aya. I come from Mangana, the first of four castle towns that is in the north."
Then one of the soldiers stepped out and said: "If I could also introduce myself. I am Kaito, the captain of the Mangana troops."
Everyone nodded once more until the princess said with a smile: "Come with me. It's time to fly my airship to my home ..."

The airship

,To fly...
Flying is beautiful, isn't it?You feel free and the burden on your shoulders ..
.. you can throw them far, far away ..
.. but since humans no longer believe in themselves, can no longer fly ..
So he created something that helps him ...
.. a ship .... the airship .. '

The ~ Navy Blue ~ quickly lifted off the ground.
"Wow!" Marveled Kana and looked out of one of the large windows.
"Have you never flown ..?" Raiji, who was standing next to her, looked at her questioningly. She just shook her head and looked at the fantastic landscape, which you could see well from this height.
After a while she said to him: "Where is Shina ..?"
"She's with the princess. She wanted to find out about something."
"Oh, that's it ..." ... "Hmm ..," said Raiji and nodded slightly.
"Sorry, but may I ask which trip you have been on ..?"
The two turned around and saw a familiar face, it was Kaito, the captain of the Mangana troops."We ..," Raiji began, but he stopped abruptly because the red-haired soldier eyed him conspicuously.
"Eh '... is something ...?", He asked, because he found these looks annoying and uncomfortable.
Kaito said seriously: "Tell me, haven't I seen you on a wanted poster before? Aren't you wanted ...?"
Then the person addressed began to stutter wildly and the others noticed him.
Kana, who had overheard everything, pushed Raiji
