Legend Of the Crystal Rose Part 4

"Whoa!"

Cardo was surprised for the Spring Goddess appeared in front of him. Cardo feels the charisma and saw the beauty of the Spring Goddess.

"Surely no foolish man will not appreciate your beauty and charisma, my Goddess. But its not you whom I desire to be with...."

Cardo step back, for he feels the Goddess is tempting him to love her. Cardo know that its impossible to love a mystical Goddess.
And this is was only a test.

"An unknown mysterious old man gave this and he told me to find this mysterious flower. I believe him because I love Lucy very much."

The goddess didn't response.

"I know it's not easy to give the crystal rose easily.... I understand, I think I have to go now.

Cardo walk down the entrance of the hall, as he decided to leave the hall.
But the guard block his way.

"Please give way..."

"You are not permitted to leave."

"give way... please."

One of the fairy saw the tension and got worried, she look at the
Spring Goddess, and approach Cardo.

"We're sorry about this but we can't just let you go?"

"Why? I don't have any purpose here any more, I think the spring goddess will not give the crystal rose."

"No, you are our hero and we can't do that to the one who saves us from the beast."

Cardo was surprised. " But why?" question in his mind.

One of the guard approach Cardo and push him back.

"Go back to the presense of the spring goddess human!" A warning from the guard.

"You have to respect the presence of the Spring Goddess or you will face consequences."
The guard point his weapon to Cardo.

"Please, stop!" The fairy step in the middle.

It was a tension, and the atmosphere turned into a silence of saddest.
Everyone's enthusiasm turns to loneliness as every one turn there eyes to the Spring Goddess.

Cardo went back to the hall and face the spring goddess.

"I understand that you only protecting your people from our world.

The Spring goddess look at him.

"If you're thinking that I'm still going for the Crystal Rose, and didn't know the importance of that rose to your people.
I accept my lost for this quest, but can I have one favor to ask."

"What is it Human?"

"Please I ask you to bring me back home, and I promise I will not tell anyone what happened."

"Well then, it seems that we can't stop you... and you impressed me Cardo."

A cold voice of sadness shows on the goddess words, because Cardo didn't fall to her trick. Cardo was releave and bow in front of the Goddess. He realize that their is something wrong with the Spring Goddess, but he don't have a strength to ask.

The spring where the crystal rose located brightens and create a portal to another dimension.

"Behold human a portal that will lead to your world."

Cardo stood up and approach the portal.

"Your highness..." A word from a worried fairy.

"We are not meant for each other for he is a human and I am a mystical creature.
It's impossible a human like him to love a creature like me...."

Is it right to let go the possible love because of indifference?

As Cardo approach the portal he has the last word.

"I don't know what happen to you, it is un-expected for a spring goddess to be so lonely.
But I want to leave you this advice, if you really love someone whom do you think is the right person to you.
Don't be afraid to fight your love, even the it takes your life. Thank you... Goodbye."

Cardo enter the portal and gone before the Spring Goddess speak a word.

"Ca-Cardo......"

A crystal clear tear drops and fell unto her sad eyes.
The drop fell unto one of the roses pinned on her gown and the rose turned into crystal rose.
But this crystal rose was different from the other crystal roses.

"Your Goddess....."

The Goddess swipe her tears and smiles.

"He was right, I should fight my love..... to fight the source of my happiness."

"Your Goddess! A new crystal rose!"

The Goddess pick the new crystal rose on her gown and give it to the fairy.

"Give it to Cardo as my gift of thanks for his purity and principle."

And the goddess went to her resting place.

"Ho-how I will.....??? , My Goddess?"

The Spring Goddess was gone.

"Hay! what should I do?"

One of the sprites approach the servant fairy.

"Lue know , how to help Maha."

A group of sprites approach Maha and Lue.

"I knew it! human could make her happy again."

"Yeah, his the man!."

"Ow... I feel sorry for those human who failed the test."

"See!, what did I told you.. we should have a plan b, c or d. This is a success!"

Do fairy was shock to she heard from the sprites.

"Eddy, Reen, Orah, Digo! you have something to do with this, tell me the truth."

She confront sprites.

"Please Maha, don't tell the Spring Goddess, we're just trying to help her."

"Olet.."

"We couldn't blame him Maha, as he was the closes sprite to the Spring Goddess.
eddy will do something that he think its right."

"Yelo..."

"Unfortunately we didn't know who's that guy, and the plan almost out of reach."

"Who's you're talking too Digo?"

"Eee...? where I'm looking!?"

"Here let me fix your eyeglasses"

The fairy ask everything that the 7 sprites know about the incident.

"Did you know what will happen to you if the King find what you did!?"

"Maha, don't be mad... we're sorry..."

"phew.... why you 7 also go alone with me!? You should bring me! man, I miss the fun."

"..........." Reaction from the 7 Sprites.

"Don't worry I will not tell to anyone even to the goddess,
but promise me guys don't move with out me okay?"

"Okay?" All respond.

"But we should deliver this crystal rose to Cardo."

Everyone nod to agree.

"What we should do?"

"We have to make a plan again."

The sprites gather in circle to plan the next move.

"Yeah this time we should have opinions, so that we can achieve something,
just in case the first plan fails."

"Next time don't go near the pond."

"But, but there's a lot of beautiful girls there."

"And that's the only way to the human world."

"Hmmm.... why not make a tunnel? I think it will be the safest route the the human world."

"Yeah that's great Idea Lue."

Love will do anything to make the one you love happy....

"Then what our next plan guys?"

"Come on Maha! don't just stand there, help us."

These is the friends of the Spring Goddess, and they're the one who were responsible to bring
Cardo to the mystical world.

Maha, the young hand maid servant of the Spring Goddess. A strong willed and affectionate fairy
especially to the cold Spring Goddess and to the sprites.

The 7 sprites, 7 little cute gnomes who were the favorite creatures of the Spring goddess
for they make her laugh and smile.

These creatures will disturb Cardo, as they will give him the Crystal Rose.

Mean while in Cardo's farm.....
