Old Memories

Prince Philip was dreaming again.

In his dream he saw himself holding a beautiful lady; who was gravely injured, her hair white as snow soaked in pool of her blood.

He was crying.
A war was raging around him but he didn't care, the most important person in his life was about to die.

"Why? Why? Why did you do that Odin?"

"I did it for Love, for you. It is my destiny to die and I want you to live . We wolves fought against ourselves for Powers but no matt what we are one. I have to die for peace to reign. I am sorry", Odin replied, tears in her eyes.

"But not this way, why did you have to sacrifice yourself for those who don't love you? You know I can't live without you".

"But you have to live, for me. I have accepted my fate. I promise you I will come back. You are important to me and that was why I did what I was supposed to do. My love you have to live and wait for me". Odin said

"I love you Odin", Philip said slowly wiping off the blood sear on her face as if it was burning her. 

Odin closed her eyes, a smile adorned her beautiful face, as her eyes closed in death.

 Love was in his eyes. "I will wait for you Odin forever".

No sooner had he said so, the sky darkened and every wolf on the battle field were freeze, Philip and Odin were the only people that weren't frozen

. A lady appeared right in front of them dressed in white.

"Who are you?" Philip asked, ready to fight her.

"You asked silly question child, I am here to help you", the lady in white answered.

"Then please don't allow my love to die, save her". Philip begged.

"Do you really want her to come back again?" The mysterious lady asked Philip.

"Yes I do"

"The sacrifice has been made and every wolf would live in peace until 90,000 years when she will be reborn. I am here to take her body with me and you; you will live as she had told you, but memories will be gone.

. If it heaven's will you will meet her in he future".

"As long as I get to meet her again, I will wait for her and yes we will meet".

Philip said as he took a last look on his lover. Odin started fading together with the lady.

"Wait who are you?"

The lady smiled as if expecting that question.

"You have come face to face with the moon goddess".

Was her reply before she vanished.

Prince Philip woke up with a start
What kind of dream is that? What was the dying girl saying about the sacrifice? Who was she? 

He thought.

He has has been dreaming before but never with a girl dying in his hands and he has promised her he would wait.

Although no denying, the lady looked so familiar to him as if he knew her from somewhere.
He was sure he had seen the face before, but where?

It clicked

He has to go back to Crescent Moon kingdom and looked for that beggar lady he saw when she ran into him. Her face looked like his Odin in his dream.

****************

After coming out from the cave and went home, she didn't tell her grandmother anything.

She did her house chores, cooked, and went for a nap.

As soon as her eyes were closed she saw herself in a waterfall.

"Odin, what kept you for so long?" She turned to see the black wolf speaking to her.

"Excuse me, are you talk to me?"

"Yes, I am. Come on you know you can't hide away from the matters of this kingdom".

"Where are the rest wolves, the remaining four, where are they?" Odin asked.

"They are waiting outside, let's go, you know you today is the day you are going to be crown the Queen of all wolves", the black wolf said as they made their way out of the waterfall.

The scene changed and she saw herself facing a man with his back on her causing havoc to the people and blaming it on Odin and her Odinlete wolves.

The scene changed again and Odin saw herself being told to sacrifice herself for the good of the people, Odin rejected the idea and that caused great war.

The scene changed, Odin saw herself with the lady in white.

"Odin, your sacrifice shall be forgotten by the people but I won't. I will help you when it's time".

"But what of my wolves? Will they kill them?"

"They can't kill something that can't be kill. They had already sought out the help of Areola, with his help he will freeze them and put them where no one will ever see it". She replied.

Odin nodded in understanding.

"What of King Reed? They have confused the people I am evil with my wolves; what shall become of him?"

"Oh him, don't worry I have plans for him".

"What of my Phillip, what will become of him?"

"Philip will keep to his promise, he will wait for you. I will have to remove his memories for peace to reign. When the time comes he will surely have his revenge".

"But would he remember me when I am reborn? How would I know it's him since I will loose my memories?" Odin asked.

"That depends on heaven, trust in yourself and your love will draw you both together. No one must know you are my daughter".

The scene changed again and she saw herself dying in a young man arms.

She woke up and saw it was night already.

She knew the face of the young man holding her, but where?

She went outside and met her grandmother making soup for dinner.

After they had eaten, Odin told her about the dream

The old lady had a strange look on her face.

"I think it's time to tell you what really happened 90,000 years ago, but not from me". Her grandmother said all of a suddenly.
