Chapter 0  The Wind of Destiny 


         Once upon a time on a sunny day. There is  a man named Newt, a late twenties loser man with glasses and messy hair in an of ce uniform. He looks so tired and disappointed walking to a bus stop with a lot of luggage. He looking for bus number 66. There are a lot of buses passing him but but none of them is bus number 66. He is still waiting for an hour even though there is no sign that bus number 66 will come. “Oh God! Are you kidding me? You would be absolutely fun hahaha” Newt complained to himself. He reaches into his pants pocket to nd some candy but he can’t nd it, it may drop out somewhere. After that he sighs so loudly with moody and looking for somewhere better to rest when the bus doesn’t come. Around 10 meters from the bus stop, there is the bookstore named ‘Tomorrow is to read’ “Here we go! I've had enough with it!” Newt stands and walks to the bookstore. He stands in front of the bookstore and looks up to the sign of the book shop for a second then he goes up the stairs to the door and opens it. When the door is opened there is wind and the smell of old paper blows to his face. It makes Newt think about his childhood when he doesn’t stress too much like these present days. When he was a young man, he like to read so much, he read a lot of comic books, newspapers and novels. fififi

The smell of the book that he just smells, it made him feel nostalgia.  Newt comes to the bookstore. There are a lot of books in a lot of shelves divided by category but most of the books in this store are the literature for kids. “Good afternoon and welcome to tomorrow, can I help you?” The owner of this store makes a conversation with Newt, he is an old kind man in brown clothes and looks like Geppetto, father of Pinocchio. Newt doesn’t say anything. He just smiles and walks to the historian shelves and picks the books about ancient Egypt to see the detail. While he is looking at the book, someone walks pass him. She is Rose, a beautiful woman in a motorcycle jacket and ripped jeans. She like a guy from a motorcycle club but so pretty for Newt. She got the scented hair and it made Newt stunned for a moment but Rose doesn’t know anything. Newt composed himself before bringing the book back to shelves. Newt walks to the literature for kid’s shelves. He looks at the books for a while until he saw Charlotte's Web, he picks it and decides to buy it. “What are you playing, man? Are

you joking to me? Why can't I get out?\" someone shout at the old man. Newt and Rose heard his voice and they walk to the counter to see what happened in this bookstore then they see the bookstore door is closed and locked. Rose runs to the door and tries to open it but she can’t. “Damn it! Are you doing it for real?” Rose shout to the old man too. “Be calm down please” Newt says to everybody. The old man sits at the counter to see how everybody reacts and smiles. “Well, what should we do now man!” rose shout at Newt. “How can you explain this Mr. Old man?\" A man talks to the bookstore owner. His name is Robert, an of ce worker. He is so tall and has a short, perfect hairstyle, on his left wrist wear a Rolex watch. “Okay like Newt said just calm down rst and listen to me carefully!” Old man said. “How do you know my name?” Newt asks the old man. “I said listen to me and please do not interrupt, just let me nish my word” Old man said and after that everybody calm down and pay attention to the old man. “You all came to my store to nd some book or just relax for a while but that is not the point. I have just one rule, if you can do it you can get out of my store with one book per one person in this store. You can choose it by yourself but you have to tell me one story from your imagination to nish my writing”  “What kind of story?” Robert interrupted the old man. “As I just said, what should you do while I talk!”  the old man reproved Robert because he interrupted him. “I will not say it again, if you want to get out you just tell the story to me but rst nd your favorite book” ififififififif

Everybody tries to nd their own favorite book but Newt still stands in front of the counter with Charlotte’s Web book. “Do you want to be the rst one?” “I’m afraid not, I think we should wait for everybody before we start to tell any story” Newt and an old man talking together while they wait for Rose and Robert. fifi

Newt Robert and Rose pick their books and stand in front of the counter. Now the book store is so quiet, three guys are thinking about what story that they should tell to the old man. “You nished before them then you should be the rst one Newt!” Old man calls Newt to tell his story to everybody but Newt doesn’t say anything, he looks so nervous. “Did your hands shake?” Rose asks Newt. “Oh god! Just tell him! Hurry up boy!” Robert said. Newt looks at Robert Rose and Old man, he feels uncomfortable to tell the story. “Well, I will be the rst. Just nish this then we will get out as soon as we can.” Robert said. “Okay! Mr. Old man listen to me carefully like you command us. This is my dream when I was young” Robert starts to tell his story. A long time ago in the ocean far, far away… There is a great pirate captain who would be the pirate king someday named ‘Tom Vallen’, He is a big man with a mustache and long black hair.

Just try to listen to it until it's nished.” Robert talking to the old man. ififififififif

In the west ocean, it has the big terrible beast calls ‘Serpeast’. Serpeast was a giant serpent with armored skin like that of a dragon’s, the human weapon would have no effect on the it. only the weapon of God can kill Serpeast. Serpeast was froze under the ocean for a hundred year but the effect of the pirate wars made Serpest awaken. Now it stays under the ocean destroyed many islands and make the sea low tide or has been dried in some island.  Tom has to be killed this beast to save his sea.

Chapter 2 Tragedy of White roses

“Die as a hero, it sounds great!” The old man said. Everybody clapped their hands to Robert's story. “Okay! In order not to waste any time. Who's next?” The old man looks at Newt, he wants to listen to his story. The old man thought that Newt story would be the great story. Newt still doesn’t act anything, he wants to see Rose tell the story before him. “Well, it wastes too much time. I will be next.” Rose said. The old man still looks at Newt, he doesn’t say anything, just smiles. Rose starts to tell her story. Newt listens to Rose carefully. Far, far away… In the kingdom of the north called 'Winteria', ruled by the house of 'Vladimeir' for hundreds of centuries! There is a secret tradition, they're hiding beneath the face of the royal family.  The tradition is told as word of mouth, only the ancestors of people has ever heard. The story said that the rst born princess will be trained especially in martial arts and assassin skills to complete her secret duty, protecting the royal family from other enemies in shadow under the name 'White Rose'.  fi

If she is also the heir of the throne, whenever she becomes the queen, if her child is not ready she must leave this duty to her younger sister until the girl is prepared. So the most important thing to look for, in bloodline, is the queen has to have at least one girl, if there is not, their family will lose the balance of surrounding protection. The princess won't work alone, but there are only a few supporters as possible for her own safety. For Princess Rosaline, the present White Rose has 3 followers ; Damien, Valentine and Solan. They are both her fellow assassin and childhood friends from countier families that bounded to serve with royalty and mission to be the guardians the royal family. Night by night, not every of them but some do have chaos underneath the breath of the country. When the door locked, people went to bed, the sky was dark. White Rose and her assassins waited, observed, kept watching for something peculiar and took care of it before the sun rise up again.  She is proud of herself, all of being a White Rose is honorable, brings her country peace and happiness so she thinks she doesn't need anything else…  But one day… It's a ne day after completing a mission, Princess Rosaline is having her breakfast with her family including King Doyle, Queen Eliza, Crown Prince Phillip and her. They talked about many things, except White Rose, because it must be left unsaid to keep an undercover operation. Then Philip said 'It's Winter, how about the ball, father?'. His father laughed 'Don't you remember the Snow ake flfi

Celebration? That's the ball you ask for, this year we are holding it in the next 7 days'. The conversation continues til it's getting close to her brother's marriage, but no one mentioned hers which is ne for Rosaline, isn't it? Because White Rose can't have any relationship so far… actually they did have when their heir is ready to take over. Still, Rosaline said nothing and nothing surprised her until the ball came together with the rst snow, it's really nice day. The castle was a bit crowded because of the royal family from other countries and their followers.  When the oor was open, an unusual thing happened. Rosaline, who meant to leave the ball early, is stopped by an accident. A prince she didn't know fell over in front of her while she was walking out the door. She felt ridiculous and distrustful, but he looks so ordinary but his voice is attractive, also clumsy but clever. They have talked, long talk since a long time Rosaline ever has. Mavis, the unknown prince, said that he came here alone from a really far country so he knew no one at all, but it didn't different from when he was there, he cares about his family even if they don't mind him that much. His story related to her deeply. They have met each other many times after the ball, as a foreign friend. He decided to stay for a trip. While Rosaline is still doing her secret duty, then wakes up early to take Mavis around. She found other happiness, but was also too tired to carry both day and night without enough sleep. flfifi

Months later, she nally knew she was falling in love with him, at the same time that the last mission left a suspicious letter connected to Mavis. He is not a prince, but he is something they still need to nd an answer. Rosaline can't keep herself in control, she asked him while they went out together, he is still lying, Rosaline's heart broke but she pretends to believe it because that's what White Rose does, pretend. White Rose and her team planned to investigate more and if his identity came out as a dangerous person for the royal family, he must be arrested or killed. But if not they will see why he keeps lying. Finally, within 2 nights, her friends found the evidence he was hiding in his place while he went out with Rosaline. They planned to catch him out of the town, where Mavis already took Rosaline to. Accidentally it's the same day that he begged on his knees, ask Princess Rosaline for marriage. 'Before I said anything, begged for your life rst.' The gun pushes on his neck quietly, Mavis stays still. No answer while Valentine arrested him, in silence, suddenly he escaped by pushing hard to her and attempt to kill Rosaline with poison needle. She didn't see it coming, but Damien was fast enough to protect her and take the damage himself, sacri cing, 'for my love, your highness' that's his last word. Rosaline was shocked but more angry with him, even with love, White Rose's knife stabbed on Mavis's chest with tears.  fifififi

Day passed, White Rose and secret operations continued… she is in pain to lose both her love and her childhood friend forever and ever… but still, doing her own duty until the next generation is born and ready to replace her.

Chapter 3 The Watch 


“Wow wonderful tragedy! I’m respect your story lady.” The old man said. “It’s very fun, you should try to write it for real.” Newt said. The old man turns to looks at Robert, he saw him fall as sleep. “Get up young man! This is no time to sleep. Pays attention on the other story, show respect to every narrator!” The old man teaches Robert.  Now everyone in the bookstore turns their face to look at Newt. He freezes and swallowing. The atmosphere in bookstore made him more uncomfortable.  “Now your turn boy. I wait for your story, if you nish it everybody can get out.” Old man talking to Newt. “I will tell my story but it wouldn’t be fun or interest, just listen it patiently” Newt start to tells his story. He looks so nervous but everybody pays attention to his story so much.  Tick… tock… Tick… tock… Ring!.. Ring!.. A young man came into the shop. It's a classic clock shop on the corner of the street. He wears a long black coat, looks polite and neat but he has tragic eyes along with an unhappy face that is so attractive. He worked at the bank across the street, not too far from the shop. 'May I help you, sir?' a boy in overalls clothing behind the counter asked, friendly. Young man shakes his head as if he doesn't need it, then walks through the counter to go around the shop. Finally he ended up in front of the boy, who waited like knowing he would need his help.  fi

‘Any help you prefer, sir?’ The boy insisted on the same word, no doubt his unhappy face caused by something that he couldn’t nd. ‘I wanna ask… if you can x this watch’ he pushes a classic watch. It looks new but at a single glance, even the young man couldn’t see, the boy pointed at the middle of the pocket watch. ‘The hands, right? It’s ticking but cracking in the same time’ Young man was quite surprised but he kept his reaction, trying not to be excited, ‘I guess the answer is yes?’ he said to the boy who nodded suddenly ‘But….’ the boy interrupted before he say something else, ‘You need to nd me these new hands… I mean the clock's new hands both long and short one, oh the new dial too.’ ‘Where can I nd it?’ Young man couldn’t keep his act that well now, his tragic eyes get brighter, this pocket watch might be so important to him. The boy smiles ‘Your childhood, indeed’, surely he doesn’t understand ‘What do you mean?’ a young man asked. ‘I will send you back through the past with this…’ the boy shows him another pocket watch that looks older than his.  fifififi

‘...you just need to push the crown, the time will run for half an hour in the past, then you will need to come in this shop again, to buy the hands and the dial for C79N series because your watch is quite old. So we need material from 20 years ago, because these days the company doesn't produce it anymore. Are you following?’ ‘Yes… I hope’ Young man was confused, he started to think the boy was tricky but without any reason, he felt close to the voice and the way he spoke so the young man kept listening. ‘Well! There are some rules you need to know rst.’ The boy declared  ‘First, you can’t introduce yourself to anyone even if they seem to know you, understand? Went there as quietly as you can’ Young man nodded as acceptance. ‘Secondly, half an hour is only for buying materials, you can’t do other things that risk losing time.’ Young man nodded again. ‘And lastly, push the crown of this clock at the moment you nish your task… you can come back before the time goes out, but if you push it after the time runs over. I don’t think I can take any responsibility for your loss.’ Young man was stunned for a while then nodded again, that’s why the boy handed him the old pocket clock ‘Good luck with time traveling!’ at the moment he pushed the crown of the clock, the boy said. And in a blink of an eye, everything he knew is gone. He is in front of the clock shop, on the same coat but felt colder from the snow that falls around, he remembered that before he came here autumn was coming, not winter. So the thing that the boy said might be true, a little bit? He would fifi

never know but surely he attempted to x his watch, so the young man decided to open the door and walked into the shop. It’s the same clock shop, for sure, except some decorations look cheaper, there are less clocks and it's full of people not like some minutes ago, anyway it’s alive. But nding the differences isn’t his job, the time on the old pocket watch is ticking, ve minutes past. ‘Dad!’ the casual voice, like he never heard before, shouted from the back and that boy ran through him into his dad. At rst he doesn’t mind but when he saw the little boy’s dad, he was shocked because that looks exactly like his dad, so it’s no doubt that the boy was him, in the past. ‘What’s up Ben? You found something interesting?’ Young man Ben looks straight to them, before he realizes he should follow the rules, so he just walks into the counter but can’t help hearing his dad and baby Ben talking about the pocket clock, that’s why it is so important to him. His dad, in present days, was gone.  fifififi

Young man Ben felt like he was going to cry soon but he needed to keep it. The words ‘only for the materials’ echoing in his head, he stopped at the counter with both hands shaking. ‘I need two hands, long and short for pocket watch C79N, per one plus the dial that is bigger enough. “Okay, My time has come. I love your story but I have to close the store” Old man said to Newt. “Oh sorry, maybe I’m thinking too much ”Newt said. “Okay,Thank you very much. Follow our agreement, all of you can go” Old man said. After the old man nishes his word the door is unlocked and open. Rose and Robert get out of the store, they are not interested in anything but Newt still standing in front of the old man. “Can I help you, young man?” Old man asked Newt. “Thank You sir, see you next time.” Newt said. “There may be no next time, young man.” Old man said and smiled at Newt. Newt walks out of the store and he wants to say goodbye to everybody. Newt Rose and Robert talk together for a while but when they look back to the bookstore there is no bookstore, it has only the restaurant in the bookstore area. Newt looks at the book in his arms, not Charlotte's Web. The book was changed and the story inside is the story that Newt just tells the old man without ending. fi
