Under the land in a small village in the forest. It used to be very peaceful and bustling with laughter here, but after the destruction of the mysterious army, the village is now just a remnants of smoke and fire. Each wooden house has burned down with only a few pieces of black pouring on top of each other, creating a quiet and melancholic scene. A tiny girl was cringing in a corner of a wall that was burned, she was so thin that she showed her ribs, there was only a dirty torn dress like she had been worn for a long time without washing. I was lucky to survive the unexpected pursuit of the mysterious army. From that moment on, I was no longer eager to live on. But from where, an arm reached out in front of me and gave me one more chance of survival. I hesitated, worried but still decided to take that hand, which changed my life forever.
Scorpio suddenly woke up after a short-term dream full of pain and loss. Her eyes have been dripping with water since then in a stream that flows down to wet a piece of hair. She opened her eyes as wide as possible to make it easier to see the blue sky that had been covered by the foliage.
So peaceful.
Scorpio thought to himself, his lips slightly curved to form a gentle and serene smile. She couldn't think of what she should do next but look at the tedious scenery in front of her.
-"Are you awazy"
The familiar deep voice that sounded right next to her startled herself and urged herself to return to reality. Without hesitation, she quickly turned her eyes to that person. Scorpio was a little surprised, she was stupid to know that there was his presence here, right in sight. It is impossible to stop embarrassment and shyness. Scorpio's cheekbones suddenly turned red, her shimmering eyes narrowed slightly, only as if that body was.
-"Are you here...don't you still have..."
-"I can go home early"
Capricorn quickly replied immediately, also imprinted with a sweet and warm smile on his mouth. Scorpio made a flutter because of that laugh, his heart beat more and more. She couldn't hide her feelings, so she silently turned her head to another place to hide the red mark on her face.
-"You did a great job Scorpio, I am very grateful to you"
Capricorn was considerate, gently bandaging each wound on her body with a pure white cloth. Scorpio pursed her lips, she glanced down and peeked at his cool black hair, then headed down at his charming arrogant nose and finally her thin and rosy lips. The eyes stopped at the lips, the more Scorpio looked at his cheeks, the more bright red he became. She couldn't stop her own feelings nor stop her own eyes peeping at him. Then suddenly Capricorn looked up, those strangely shimmering purple eyes made her a little dazed.
-"Hmm, what's wrong, do I hurt you"
-"No...no, it doesn't hurt at all"
Scorpio frantically, trying to answer in embarrassment. She pursed her lips to look at Capricorn in fear, fearing that he would find it troublesome to waste time in vain with her, or because he didn't want him to worry. Scorpio tried to keep herself calm even though her cheeks were red like tomatoes, she swallowed and tried to float while she had to face Capricorn's gaze. He didn't speak, but his eyes were still watching her, seemingly wanting to get a clear and reasonable answer.
-"I'm really sorry sir, I didn't... fulfill my responsibilities"
Scorpio at that time showed a sad look, blaming himself. She found it difficult as well as awkward to expect something that would not happen. Lowering her eyes, Scorpio really didn't have the courage to look at him or look forward to his next emotion, she felt that she was not worthy.
-"I looked down on Virgo too much...a little bit of my neglect...I didn't..."
Emotions are flowing, Scorpio wants to arouse all his heart to the outside. But before that outburst was over, she suddenly stopped. Scorpio still did not understand the story and suddenly saw that her body was flying in the air, she was startled and quickly turned her head to look at Capricorn, and did not expect that he himself had picked her up so that she could lie still in her heart. Scorpio is now like the princess being carried away by the prince often heard in fairy tales, she knows this is crazy but really now she feels extremely happy.
-"Let's go"
Capricorn smiled gently at her, and she was so excited that she couldn't stand it. Scorpio didn't want to disturb him, so he immediately refused, his body struggled to want him to drop her down.
-"No way...don't do that, it will be very difficult, quickly drop me down I can walk"
-"It's okay, I'm very healthy, I don't criticize you for being heavy"
After the answer, I saw that Scorpio was silent and did not complain any more questions. Capricorn laughed, his hand clenched to her a little more, then the two gradually went deep into the forest.

Aries took a small wooden chair and placed it on the side of the bed. She slowly sat down, who turned to the boy who was still sleeping well. Unbearing to sit still, her hand stretched out and touched his angular face slightly. His half-closed eyes looked at him full of caresses, his lips gradually curled up, as if he was smiling.
Suddenly, Leo came in from behind the thin curtain. In Leo's hand is a hot porridge that is still smoking suspiciously. Leo walked step by step towards Aries, slowly placing a bowl of porridge on the table. After completing the mission, Leo quickly took a puzzled look at Aries.
-"You can eat"
-"Thank you Leo, it bothers Leo so much"
Although he answered, Aries didn't look at Leo and took one. Aries only looked at him, he alone as if she didn't care what kind of upheaval would happen in the outside world. It was that that aroused curiosity in Leo. Standing upright opposite Aries, Leo began to take his own questions outside, hoping that Aries would answer all those questions correctly.
-"Who is this boy? Miss Aries"
-"Why do you call me auntie, I look so young and beautiful. Just call me Aries, okay. Or maybe my brother accepts"
-"..."
Leo stood dumbfounded by Aries' answer. As for Aries, he is carefree, playfully explaining things that Leo does not bother to notice. The two quickly fell into silence, Leo was able to feel the difficult atmosphere along with his helplessness. Now whatever you should say, whatever you ask, it's because of Aries that you are out of interest. Looking at Aries still passionately holding his hand and hugging and kissing, Leo was really curious. She pursed her lips for a moment and tried to open her mouth to speak when suddenly Aries spoke up and cut off all her thoughts.
-"Ah, this is Aries' lover, it's forbidden for Leo to touch him"
-"..."
This time Leo officially locked her mouth, she didn't know if she should express all her current feelings to the outside or not. Aries said and acted as if marking her sovereignty in front of her, but what did she do? Everything was more vague than she thought and then suddenly she remembered him, whom Aries had once received as a lover.
-"And him, Taurus"
-"Huh, how about Taurus? What's wrong with him?"
Through Leo's intonation, he smelled incorrectly, from his address or bewildered face, he also pointed out the unusualness in Aries. Leo was a little surprised, she was just afraid that during their time they fled, Aries at home would accidentally lose her memory. But is that really the case? Is there anything Leo still doesn't know in Aries.
Leo stood thoughtfully for about twenty seconds. Only when there is a call of Aries Leo will he wake up.
-"Hey Leo, get me a glass of water"
Whispering "yes" for an hour, Leo didn't know if Aries could hear the answer or not, she now only cares about the billions of thoughts swirling around her mind. Seeing Aries staring at her, she temporarily put aside unnecessary things, turned around and left the room.
The wooden cup catches the cool water from the lake. Leo with a hasty temper, so he was about to get it quickly and then left. Turning around and about to walk, she was startled to see when Taurus was standing here behind her.
-"Is it okay to stay inside"
Taurus said calmly, his eyes directly at Leo with a slight hangover. Leo was surprised but did not dare to hide, she knew that he did not want to face Aries very much, so she deliberately hid outside, also because to calm herself down after the incident she had just witnessed even though she did not understand what it was.
-"It's okay, so I went in before"
Leo dodged to the side preparing to continue but suddenly he grabbed her arm and forced her to stop. Slowly turning her head, she looked at him as if inquiring.
-"What's wrong with you"
-"I'm with you"
Understanding that desire, Leo thought about it, but just nodded slightly as if instead of a yes. His hand was clenched at this time to gradually loosen and finally let go completely. When he was no longer entangled, Leo went first, and when he saw that, he quickly followed.
*
Aries was happy to see Leo with the glass of water she was still waiting for. Although she said she would sit here until he woke up, over time she was also thirsty and hungry, fortunately Leo provided food with water to drink at hand, so she could sit and wait for the prince to sleep well.
Aries only took a sip and drained a glass of water, probably because she had to hold on for a long time. Leo and Taurus are looking at the situation, and all attention is focused on the son lying quietly in bed. Although this is the first time we meet, Leo feels extremely familiar with his eyes, as if she had seen it somewhere that she had only glanced before.
-"Oh, is Taurus here too"
Taurus was a little jerky but quickly regained his original indifference. Now he dares to look directly at Aries, his eyes half-closed as if he lack of sleep, too many rays of hatred. For some reason, he was completely relieved, because now he is officially free.
-"Do people also want to wait for him to wake up, or do they want me to answer any questions?"
Aries rolled her eyes at Leo and said, she felt like this was an underground question for her. Without hesitation, Leo bluntly questioned Aries's equanimity.
-"What did you do to that boy?"
-"The Lion likes to ask the truth, it seems that the two of you have witnessed it all, but in advance that I'm not the one who did him so pathetic, I just blessed him a little"
Leo is mysterious before Aries' confusing words, completely unreceptive in time. But when they remembered the old time, when the two were talking about the curse issue, Leo was suddenly dumbfounded. She seemed to have understood something.
-"You put a curse on him...why?"
-"I said I didn't do anything bad. Besides, it's not a curse"
Leo was agitated for a moment, so she shouted loudly, also because she thought Aries had harmed another innocent person. Aries was no less competitive, she was a little angry after learning that Leo's dark thought was pressed on her, so she was angry and shouted loudly, the two puffed up and squanimburstfully expressed anger.
-"Don't you like immortality very much, but why do you say they are curses. You should have known that it was my privilege and secretly thanked me for that"
Although words were difficult to speak, Leo frowned and tried to change the subject.
-"So you cursed that son to live his whole life with you?"
After a moment of silence as if revenge had been completed, Aries replied in a loud voice, his eyes not even glancing at Leo and Taurus.
-"That's right"
Not understanding why after Aries' answer, Leo peeked back at Taurus who was still standing like a statue next to him. She was curious about how he would react and feel, but he seemed to have hidden his feelings so well that she couldn't recognize his feelings right now.
-"So how it works"
Leo continued to add.
-"Xì, it's true that chatting with people who don't have any understanding of ability is boring, but I don't know very well. Ask the person next to you"
Aries shrugged his shoulders, his hands simultaneously raised into the air, in the direction of his fingers pointed straight towards Taurus. Leo then slowly turned his head to look at him. She narrowed her eyebrows uncomfortably, but turned to look at Aries.
-"Enough_"
-"I don't know this either. But...”
Cutting off her words, Taurus hesitated, his eyes couldn't stand it, but turned to Leo who was still dumbfounded. Although Leo didn't want him to be the one to answer, in the end she still listened very attentively, her eyes rolled and couldn't hide her curiosity, even so she still had to try to suppress it.
-"If cursed by her, then the cursed person suffers a terrible pain, it's like mental and physical torture"
-"What is that..."
The forehead was imprinted with a few wrinkles, Leo looked serious and continued to interrogate. Aries is tired of sitting opposite and watching everything until she yawns tears, sometimes when she meets this sad atmosphere, she comes to her own hobbies to relieve her tediousness, not knowing that she is receiving the thorny look of the opposite person. Taurus was the one who gave her that look, thinking and observing Aries made him feel harsh, fortunately that feeling had partially calmed down.
-"Everything will be replaced, everything-"
As he was speaking, on the home side, a loud call drew all the attention of the three out of the curtain. Everyone was surprised, so they were dumbfounded for a long time, and finally Leo opened his mouth to end that silent atmosphere.
-"Let me"
Leo walked out quickly. Because the wooden house is located deep in the forbidden forest in the North, it is rarely people appear, it is very rare. Honestly, Leo finds it strange, Taurus feels even stranger. He stood and watched Aries cuddle with the boy for a while and finally decided to follow Leo out.
Her hands clinging to her doorknob used a light force that pushed it to the sides. The wooden door that creaked was also the time when the figure of the caller began to appear.
A man with light brown hair and turquoise smiling eyes caught Leo's eye. This man is very beautiful, on his face he also wears a black mask that covers part of his right eye, which adds mystery and a very different dress than the people living nearby, it is extremely luxurious and elegant. Leo was dull but also gradually realized that he was a noble.
-"Lucky, can you let me in for a while"
He smiled, a charming smile that could cut down women's hearts. Although Leo had an initial impression of that irrational beauty, she couldn't care when in his arms was a girl with injuries who received only temporary first aid. A familiar feeling suddenly rushed back as soon as she saw the figure of that girl. It seems that she has seen where that girl has been.
Taurus approached Leo, his hands on her shoulders and gently shook her to wake up. She did not speak, but indirectly agreed through the gesture of opening the door wide and entering the house.
-"So can I come in?"
He was still smiling, but his eyes turned to Taurus this time.
-"Okay"
With minimal politeness, when he received a clear agreement, he happily left his boring place and walked inside with Taurus.
-"It's so old"
-"Is there an ambulance item here"
-"Let me put someone here"
-"..."
He kept talking and didn't seem to be tired. Taurus is a quiet person, but now someone comes to make noise, so he feels very dissatisfied in his heart, thinking that he just wants to drive this annoying freak out of the house in his heart.
Leo helped the girl bandage the wound and he stood by and watched intently as if afraid she would hurt the girl. As soon as she worked, her eyes quickly glanced at the face of the sleeping girl, now she can clearly see the face of that girl. An unfriendly impression, her forehead began to show some wrinkles.
-"Are you Leo?"
-"Yes"
She replied quickly, and the tone in her voice gradually changed. He knew her current mood, so he felt very excited in his heart, his lips tightened to create a smile that was just attractive enough. He hummed and glanced at her.
-"Russia~ it's you"
With wide eyes widened, Leo felt terrified with a sweet voice near her ear, she really remembered, she knew. As soon as the bandage was done, Leo slowly stood up and then stepped aside to make room for him.
Taurus sat in a chair watching the head and tail but still couldn't grasp the atmosphere of the two people in front of him. This feeling was uncomfortable, Taurus had to try to hold it back even though he really wanted to ask her.
He looked at the sleeping girl for a while before suddenly remembering what to do, quickly turned towards Leo, his right hand slowly placed in front of his chest. He crouched in front of her then slowly raised his deep, sweet voice.
-"I'm Capricorn"
He raised his head and looked directly into her eyes.
-"You must have heard of me too"
Leo was silent and did not hesitate to look back at him, she swirled into those wonderful shimmering eyes and felt extremely ravenous in her heart.
-"I didn't expect you to be alive, I'm so happy"
-"I also feel very lucky that I am not finished off by your subordinates"
Capricorn smiles brighter, Leo is the opposite. Unexpectedly, the round earth made all three reunite here. Leo is like a lost sheep who doesn't know the right direction to continue going, she doesn't know if she should be angry or hate the person who once killed her. She couldn't believe anyone.
-"It is thanks to that that she was liberated, not forced, not betrayed"
-"..."
What Capricorn said was indeed true, she was now free and no one forced her like before. The feeling of being comfortable doing what you want, it's great. Want to agree with his words but what should you say now? Silence was her best option.
-"I have a lot of information I want to discuss with you, what you don't know and want to find out, we can explain it all. If you want, Leo. You can come to my land for a trip as if you learn and visit. And it's late now, my dear brother must have come here too, maybe I should bring my family home, sorry for your help"
-"Brother..."
