The Phoenix

A bird sitting on the top of the gems mountain.. It's not a bird, it's a fire bird. No.. Rather, A PHOENIX.

But what is the Phoenix doing here? Wrong, what is she doing in front of the legendary fire bird?

Margaret stepped back. If the giant bird wakes up then it's the end. For sure, according to the legendary myths story, Phoenix is ​​the king of all spirit beasts. It can burn anything if it wants to. And more than that, it's fire can also burn soul. So if the monster wakes up, her soul will be burned to nothing. If what she read about Phoenix was true. It says, Phoenix is ​​immortal. It is not visible at the moment because, it has not yet found the one destined to be the master of the said bird. And according to what she knows, it will live again when two souls meet in one body. Phoenix can be reincarnated with the help of the other soul. But that soul should also have the blood of the Phoenix.

"You're here.. " the voice was like thunder with power that woke up Margaret's traveling mind.

She looked for the owner of the voice. No one else's there. Just her and... She stopped and looked at the living creature in front of her.. The bird is now looking at her. As if she was recognized.

"You.. You.. You talked?" She asked nervously.

She is going crazy. How can a bird speak..

"Yes."

"Ahhhhhhhhhh.....!!!!!"

She couldn't stop screaming. The fu*k!!!! In today's situation, Who wouldn't scream if you see a fire in the shape of a bird and talk like this!!!

"Ahhhhhhh..!!!!!! ----------

"You shut up!!!!!" The bird yell at her.

"Ahhh..." her screams weakened.. Until her screams stopped.

"You're an assassin, but when you scream it's like you're the victim of an assassin? " The fire bird sneered at her.

"If... If you were in my situation right now, wouldn't you scream?" She answered bravely.

"What do you have to fear? That I'll burn you?" The bird asked her.

Margaret thought, oh yeah.. If the bird really wanted to kill her, it should have been a while ago. So what situation does she have now?

"The.... Then... Why am I here? Who are you? What are you? And what do you want?" She asked one after another.

"Ask me one by one.. Human."

"......"

"I said ask me..."

"I already asked you tho.? " she fidgets.

"Huh!.. " I want to burn you right now... " said the bird.

"No....!!!! I'm going to ask. I'm going to ask.. Don't burn me.. I still have something important to do." She answered in confusion while gesturing with both hands...

"En. Go ahead."

"Is it normal for you to be this scary and arrogant?" She couldn't stop asking.

"Right.. I should burn you...." The fire started to grow around the bird.

"Wahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!... Sorry!... Sorry...!! " Margaret knelt down and started to kowtow... But only for a moment and she was also stunned.. "Eh..? " She looked at the bird that is now also looking at her.

"What now?!" There was still annoyance and anger in its voice.

"Your fire ain't hot." Margaret said absentmindedly.

"Idiot..! " sigh... "

"Huh! It can't burn me?! I thought you were the Phoenix." She is smiling teasingly.

"Of course I am the Phoenix.. You idiot..! " The bird yell again.

"You are?.." She glanced at it. "So why don't I get burned by your fire?" She stretched out her hand and started playing with the fire.

"Sigh... " the bird suddenly stood up.. "It's because I am you.. And you are me.. " the bird explained.

Margaret stopped what she was doing.. What did the bird say?

"I am alive now because our souls are intertwined. Your soul is living with that human body while my soul is living with your soul. In short, you are me, and I am you. You can talk to me now because I am inside somewhere in your consciousness. And this space, Where you can put things from the human world, and also take out something from here. " the bird explained clearly and long.

Margaret remained speechless and just staring at the bird. Her brain doesn't want to work.. (Oh okay, try to understand) it's hard, isn't it?

"So, you mean.. We are one? " She asked weakly.

"Yes."

"How did it happen, that we became one?"

"According to my small previous memory before I regain consciousness.. Our blood mixed. It happened under water.. "

Margaret thought.. Right.. She remembered the scene under the sea before she lost consciousness.

"That pearl, is actually your blood?" She asked in disbelief

"Yes.. " 10,000 years.. I've waited 10,000 years to be reincarnated.. And finally here I am.. "

"10,000 years.. That's too long.. " for the duration of that year. What happened? "You died?"

"Yes.. " The bird answered sadly..

"How?"

"There were two reasons why the Phoenix dies. First, if they gave birth to another Phoenix, they will give their part of souls to their descendants, and wait again to reincarnate. Second, If they choose to die to save someone dear to them. They will sacrifice their own life to save that someone." It explained sadly.

"It's sad.. So, how did you die?" Margaret sat next to Phoenix..

"I did the second reason. " the Phoenix murmured..

"You sacrifice your own life? Do you love the father of your eggs that much?"

Idiot!!!! " It gave the girl a strong punch. "Phoenix don't lay eggs!! You idiot!! We don't have physical bodies! We are spirit...! It really annoyed with Margaret..

" ouch!!! How would I know??!!! "

"How??? Isn't it obvious?! If the Phoenix lays eggs then we still have a lot until now!.. " The bird snorted again.

"Yes, right..! " I didn't think of that. "

"You don't have brains, That's why!"

"Hey!! That's too much!!" She also yell out loud to it. "How could you say that?! "

"If you have brains, you wouldn't have died and been reincarnated. You wouldn't have been killed by the people who killed you." The bird tell the truth.

"That's..... Right.., those people... I will kill them all..." She said full of anger.

"How? You're poor..."

"Are you on my side or the enemy? You should also help me make plans." She said here..

"The hell!! You want to take revenge but you don't have a good plan??! how????!! "

"I...... I'm... I will do it.." She fidgets. .. And think... "I will surely do it.. "

"Hmmm... If so then, I will pass my eyes power on you.. " The bird replied seriously..

"Power of your eyes?" Margaret asked full of curiosity.

"Yes.. I will only pass that one to you. Only that power.. "

"How's that power work?" She frowned when she asked.

"You'll know tomorrow when you wake up..."

"Oh.... Then.. I can still see and meet you? " she suddenly felt sad.. What if she can't meet the bird again?

"Of course.. As I was saying.. I'm living inside your soul.. This place is inside your consciousness. You can come here.."

"That's great then..." I'm happy and convinced. She said smiling.

"Now... Look me in the eyes.. Don't blink. It will hurt a bit but endure it."

Margaret followed.. She stared into the burning eyes of the Phoenix..

Ahhhhhh... It hurts!! " he shouted.. His eyes seemed to be on fire..

"Endure it! It's almost done.. "

"Ahhhhh.....!!!!" The hell.. This is torture...!!! It's painful...!!! "

"Almost done.. Hold on..." Phoenix promised seriously..

"Ahhhhhhh......!!!!!!!!!!! " Loud screams could be heard continuously in that space.... Margaret's whole body trembled because of the pain she felt in her eyes.

"There.. There.. It's done..."

"Huhuhu..." Margaret cried.. That was hell..

"Enough crying now. It's all done."

"It's easy for you to say!" She cried out loud "It was so painful..!"

"I know.. That's why I said you have to endure it.. Now go back.. " pushing her away.. Let's meet again soon.. I want to rest. "

"You..." She was about to grumble but she heard her mother's voice... Waking her up.

She opened her eyes and saw her mother getting ready to go selling.. She rubbed her eyes.. She felt it still hurt..

"Jen-jen... Get up. Your breakfast is ready, just eat it.. I'm going to sell. Be careful to your school.. Your pocket money is on top of the refrigerator." her mother's long reminder.

Margaret smiled at her.

"Thank you Ma, good morning.!"
