Chapter 9 - '' Nor Shall Death Part Us''

After that day , the snow was horrible ... The storm came back... Rosalia and Loreto was force to stay in the house.... In the village, there is a huge mansion.... one and only house that can catch people's among the small wooden house.... No one in the village went in before... Rumours says that the house was haunted ..... Rosalia was always curious about the mansion..... Therefore, she requested Loreto to do her a fovour...
''Loreto-sama....''Rosalia called..
''hmm?.....''Loreto look at Rosalia ...
''Can you do me a favour?'' Rosalia asked softly....
''I will try what I can......'' then Rosalia's eyes start to shine! She pointed at the mansionnot far from them....
''Are you sure you want to go there... The storm is pretty bad now ....''Loreto ask her worriedly.... Yet the only answer he found on her face was ''YES ''
''I guess okay then but promise me not to leave my sight.... We dont know whats in it....''Loreto was always a careful person....He wouldnt want anything to go wrong especially someone dear to him is going with him.
''YES SIR!'' Rosalia said happily and grab her coat.
After few minutes, they reach infront of the mansion.... The gate had rusted with two statue of the ancient gaygoyte on both side of the gate... Loreto knew it was a warning ... Gaygoyte is also called the ''Angel Of Death''. He knew it was dangerous yet he wouldnt want to let Rosalia down. Each step he take , his expression getting more and more complicated yet Rosalia is still anxious... He hold Rosalia hand tighter and tighter each step closer to the inner hall of the mansion ...Well he didnt realize Rosalia's face was blushing ...Her face goes pinker and pinker even red now.... Finally the reach the door of the hall.. They look at each otehr and both of them streacth their hands and push the door.....
''AHHHHHHHH!!!!'' Rosalia screamed immediately when she saw whats in the hall.... Loreto just hug her tightly and he was wondering what has happen... Many skeletons lay on the beautiful flooring. Blood stains are all over the floor and in the middle of the hall a large yet beautiful picture hung on the wall. When Loreto saw the picture, he got really shock... The man in the picture have the same red eyes as him and beside the picture was a lady with blue eyes as if they are the future of Loreto and Rosalia. What bothers Loreto is the colour of the man's eyes... the colour of blood like his eyes.... There is only one explaination he was one of his ancestors ....
Loreto tehn hold Rosalia hand and walk close and close to the poster, walking pass the skulls and bones, steping on the blood on the floor.... Suddenly, Loreto saw one thing, a book ... more like a diary...... The pages are all torned... only left a sentence in it written in blood....
''Norshall death part you and me !'' ....at the end of the page it wrote ''Love, Sergio ......'' the last word was blurr and it cant be read.... Loreto knew something , he is even sure that this person who wrote that must be someone belongs to his tribe ... He even thinks that he must be someone close to him...
''Sergio? He have the same surname as yours.....''
''...''Loreto remain silence and noded his head....
''Look at that....!'' Rosalia pointed at one sword carve with ancient scripture... Loreto went near to the sword and saw the sword stab into a body.... It was a Deadbody.... IT DIDNT ROTE.....
''He is my uncle ....'' Loreto finally voice out ...
''What???...Don feel sad okay?'' Rosalia got shcok then she tried to cheer Loreto...
''But how you know thats your uncle???''Rosalia still got curious....
''He didnt rote like others.... and the sword belongs to my family....The words on the sword are curses .... ''
''But still it might not be your uncle right....''
''No.... It was recorded in my family book. My uncle... his name is Sergio Hiroshi ... According to the book he was once a great prince of my tribe, he was called the Prince of Chaos but later he betray our family ...''
''WHy would he betray his own family....??'' Rosalia still got no idea ...Then Loreto pointed at that girl beside his uncle in the poster.. Then Rosalia understand what was going on...
''The sword was used by the royal family only and it is used only for punishment.''
''SO Death is his punishment ...how about the girl????''
''I guess the deadbody beside him was his lover gua.....>.<...''
''She have blue eyes liks me...why she didnt rot like others...''
''I m not sure ..... One thing, I m only 6 years old....so I dont know much...''Loreto was quite fed up with Rosalia's question .... But deep in both of their mind, they felt uneasy... The people in the poster look like them and one thing they know they dont want to end up like them...
''Reto-sama, I dont want to be like them.....''Rosalia cried..... She was so afraid .She dont want to be face the same fate as them...
''We wont.... I promise you to protect you ...''Loreto smile trying to clam her, trying to calm himself too...
''Bu what if you die like him.....''
''dont be like her...live strongly ^.^''
''No...I will accompany you... I will be bored and lonely if you are gone....''Rosalia quickly said. Loreto was the 1st guy she like, her one and only guardian, friend and the only one she love
''......''Loreto kept quiet. He knew he will do what she said too.... To him, Rosalia is his light, and his hope. He hug her tightly ... trying to calm her even though he is fear more than her..
After that, both of them continue to explore the mansion...
They came across a room. They open then door and they saw a white piano sitting in the room beside a huge window. The light shine in and shine at the piano .It seems so bautiful and temption so the two small kid went in ....
''Reto-same, do you know how to play a piano?? It look so nice....yet I know nothing about it''
''.....'' Loreto kept quiet and lay his small hand on the piano. He started to play a song ... So familiar .... Rosalia felt it is so familiar like she heard it somewhere.
''So familar de........ I heard it somewhere...''Rosalia said...
''You sang it before....'' Loreto just said continueing to play the song.
''Ah..... Its the one... the song I was singing when we met...'' Rosalia remmebered.
''You still remember it!!!'' Rosalia siad suprisingly...
''^.^''Loreto just show that expresion. And he started to play the song again.....
Then, Rosalia sang the song ..... Once again, the song of sorrows started to play again... The music filled the room. The sad memories seems to be refreshed and the atmosphere of the mansion was covered by this warm yet sad song.

Will this young couple face the same fate as their ancestors? Will God pity them and give them wings to fly away from the world of full with despair and sorrows? The song of sorrows had started, when will it end again?
