Translation
Shin & Sarina
I promised to protect you with my life
A new Kapi is here * happy *
------
Shin is right in front of Akiko. He slowly bends over to her. His and her lips are getting closer and closer. Shin is not at all comfortable with this. He doesn't even know this fairy and has to kiss her. As long as Sari gets free, he doesn't care. Shin touches the fairy's lips. A short time later a "pling" sounds. Lens steps can be heard. He runs to Sarina, who is lying unconscious on the floor. Shin pulls himself off the fairy and kneels down to his girlfriend.
"Sari? Sari can you hear me?" There is despair in Shin's voice.
"It's too late. I'm sorry, Shin." Akiko looks guilty at him.
"Shin, maybe I can help her. I'm a magician and I can wake her up again." Len takes a staff out of his pocket. The rod is so big that it would be impossible to fit in Lens pocket. The top end is in the shape of a C and in the middle is a red crystal ball. Len holds the crystal over Sarina's head and mumbles unintelligible words. Shin holds Sarina in his arms and tears can be seen in the corner of his eye. Suddenly Sari starts coughing. When she is calm again, Len puts his staff back.
"She'll survive. At least I hope. She'll just get some sleep and rest." Len suddenly sounds quite grown up.
Shin breathes a sigh of relief. "I should bring you to the tent. Len, please collect firewood. I will take care of Sari." Then something else occurs to him: "Akiko? Can we stay overnight in your meadow or not?" When the fairy sees Shin's serious expression, she nods immediately.
Shin puts Sarina in her sleeping bag and sits down next to her.
"Please, Sari, you mustn't die. I promised to protect you with my life." Shin holds Sarina's hand and begins to cry. The tears run down his cheeks and drops on Sarinas and his hands. With one hand he wipes the tears from his eyes and in the other he still holds Sari's.
Then he takes the chain out of his backpack. Whenever he was feeling bad or when he had an argument with Sari, he would take the necklace and think of it. The good times they both spent together and the not so good ones. Shin likes to remember a specific day. That day her journey began. The day four years ago. Shin's 15th birthday.
* Flashback *
Shin's friends are all there. All but Sarina. She always takes a long time to annoy him. But nothing can spoil Shin's good mood today. Today is his 15th birthday. Sari just won't get any of the cake if it takes that long. When the doorbell rings, Shin runs over and opens it. Without seeing who is standing in front of him, he says, "Sorry, Sari. There's no more cake left." When he doesn't get an answer, he turns to the person at the door and sees an older man."I don't want a cake. You are Shin, 13 year old Sarina's boyfriend. Or am I wrong?" When Shin confirms that he is Shin, the man continues: "You and Sarina have to travel to Linz, there you will expected by your sister. "
“Which sister?” Shin grew up as an only child and knows nothing about a sister.
"Your sister was given away after she was born and is in the dungeon of Linz Castle."
"What does that have to do with sari?"
"You naive boy. Sarina is the only one who can support you on this journey. There is a secret power in her. There are people who are after this power, so you have to protect her. She will be of great help to you as soon as possible her power has been activated. You have to leave for Linz with her. You could be on the road for years. Take this sword here. It will serve you faithfully. "The man hands Shin a sword with gold decorations.
"How do I know my sister?"
"She will recognize you. Hurry up. Sarina knows nothing of her power, so don't tell her. She must not know until they are activated. Protect her with your life. Both of you are soul mates. You can communicate in one way that no one hears but you. "Suddenly the man has disappeared.
Shin doesn't wait long and runs into his room. There he packs the bare essentials and leaves the house. He's looking for Sarina all over town. When he finds her, she is sitting trembling on the floor of an alley. Shin kneels down to her and gently touches her. Sarina winces at the touch and then looks up. With her cried red eyes she looks directly into Shin's light brown eyes. Sarina immediately falls around Shin's neck when she realizes that it is him.
“What happened?” Shin is very worried about Sarina, but she just shakes her head and doesn't say a word.
"Sari, come on, we have to leave for Linz. I have to look for my sister there, who I didn't know about until recently. Please help me to find her. I will protect you with my life on the journey."
Sarina looks up and smiles at Shin. Then she nods. Shin stands up and extends her hand, which she immediately takes. Together they make their way out of the city.
Shortly after they leave town, something occurs to Sarina. "Shin, I haven't even congratulated you on your birthday. Here's for you." Sarina takes a chain from her pocket and gives it to Shin. “Sorry it's not wrapped.” Sarina blushes a little.
"That doesn't matter. Thank you, Sari." Shin hugs Sari briefly and then they move on.
* Flashback end *
Shin promised to protect her with his life and now he has failed. Sari is still doing badly. Shin still doesn't know why Sari was shivering in the alley back then. Whenever he asks Sari about it, she doesn't answer.
"What am I to do?" thinks Shin.Akiko walks into the tent and looks at Shin with concern. "Are you all right?"
Shin looks up in surprise: "Me? You seriously ask how I am? Sarina could die and you worry about me?!?"
"Well, I just wanted to know how you deal with it. I also wanted to thank you. Thanks to you, I'm a full fairy."
"Good for you. I want to be alone now. Go please."
"Alright. Should I take Sarina with me? If you want to be alone, she'll only bother her."
"NO! Sarina stays where she is. Here, where I can take care of her. Now get out of here," Shin is almost yelling. Akiko quickly escapes from the tent.
Shortly afterwards, Len sticks his little head into the tent: "Is Sari better?"
"I don't know. Can you check on her?"
"Yes, I'll do that, but I need your help. Sari is too heavy for me, you have to turn it on its side and hold it so that it doesn't tip over again." Len slips into the tent and takes Sari's right arm. He examines him like a doctor. Then also the left one.
"I don't know how to tell you, but ..." Len is still looking for the right words.
"What about sari?" When Len doesn't answer, he takes him by the collar. "Now tell me. What about her. Talk to Len!"
“Let me down and calm down.” Len now sounds like a little child again. Shin lets go of him slowly "I'm sorry, Len. I didn't mean to. It's just because of Sarina ..."
"I already know. So Sarina is ..."

What is Sarina?
I'm so mean Always in such places * nasty grin *
Will take a while, until the next Kapi, because I will soon be busy with my mmff when I have enough registrations. But I try to put a chapter in both of them on a regular basis.
