Chapter 112 - Not Herself

"Whose voice can you hear?" Ash asked as the girl's body trembled at the princess's voice. 

'Lilith's, I can hear her voice" she responded. 

'Lilith is nowhere here Cosmo" Ash said and Cosmo swallowed deeply. 

"She is somewhere here I am telling you that I can literally hear her calling out to me," she said and Vivian along with the others looked at each other. 

'What if it's true?" Vivian asked and Ash sighed then looked around but did not see Lilith anywhere. 

"Even if she is here there is no way we would be able to see her," Ash said and Cosmo looked around with her eyes going but yet could not see the girl either. 

'Something really does not feel right" Cosmo said to herself with a frown. 

"Lilith if you are here please just show yourself already," Cosmo said and Ahs grabbed her by the arm. 

I don't think we should be out here, somehow u do not have a good feeling, come on let' go back to the castle" Ash said. 

'You are right I do not have a good feeling about being out here either" Cosmo said and they all went back to the castle but upon arriving there.

They saw the king sitting in the living room smiling while reading a book. 

'What are you smiling about huh?" Cosmo asked. 

'What are you guys looking for exactly?" the king asked. 

"Lilith" Cosmo responded and he smiled. 

'She, you won't be able to find so I am asking you to stop trying" he said and the girl smiled. 

'I really wish that smile turn into tears" Cosmo replied and he laughed as he stood up with the book in his hand. 

"That is something that can and will only happen in your dream sweetheart," he said and Cosmo scoffed. 

"You really should not judge a book by its cover you know" she replied and he smiled wickedly. 

'I think I am judging you just right sweetheart" he said. 

"You will retreat doing that for sure, mark my words" she replied and he leaned in towards her then she pulled back. 

"Keep your filthy self away from me your royal highness," she said and the others laughed.

'Soon enough the smile on all of your feces will be gone when you see your dear friend again" he replied and Cosmo swallowed deeply as he walked away.     

"What is he thinking?" Cosmo asked as she heard Lilith calling out to her again and this time her head started aching. 

"Lilith, please... I don't know where to find you, you need to stop calling me like that it's hiring my head" Cosmo said to herself as she sat down on the couch and held onto her head. 

'You okay?" Vivian asked and Cosmo looked at her with a smile. 

"My head is aching due to her calls" she responded. 

'Wait let me get you some water" Vivian said then left the room and the others sat with Cosmo. 

"I am sure she doesn't;t mean to hurt you," Jasmine said. 

"I am not so sure about that Jasmine" she replied. 

"What do you mean?"Jasmine asked. 

"Lilith and I had some serious problems before we came back.. we hardly even talked and we fought a little, could be something else this time and if she is not herself she won't hesitate in hurting me.. she will not think twice" she responded and they sighed.

'She has a point" Ash said. 

"I know he does" Jasmine replied as Vivian came with a glass of water in her hand. 

'Here" she said as she gave it to Cosmo and the girl collected it then smiled. 

'Thank you" Cosmo said. 

'You are most welcome" the girl replied then sat down. 

'Will she be okay Ash?" Marlene asked as they looked at Cosmo. 

'I don't know if she will, that must be magic" Ash responded. 

'It's magic alright, she can't just call out to me from wherever she is just like that" Cosmo said as she folded her cuffs in anger. 

"You are angry," Jasmine said as she looked at Cosmo's folded cuffs and the girl sighed then looked at Jasmine. 

'I am not angry at Lilith but I am at this situation" she responded. 

'Never thought I would be the one doing this after so long..." she said. 

'What do you mean by that?" Marlene asked. 

"It's just I didn't think all of this would happen when I first came here" she responded. 

'No one thought this would happen, I didn't think you and I could have even become friends but faith always has its ways" Vivian said and Cosmo smiled. 

'Faith plays a crucial part in everyone's life, sometimes it's things and people we can't run from forever" Cosmo replied. 

"That is very true" Ash said with a smile as the queen came into the room and they all looked at her as she sat by Cosmo's side. 

"Are you okay?" the queen asked. 

"I am fine thanks, are you okay your highness?" she asked and the queen frowned. 

'I will be fine sweetheart I am just worried about you guys" she responded. 

'You don't need to worry about us we will e just fine, you need to take care of yourself and stay strong if anything happens to you, Lilith will probably kill us all" Cosmo said and the queen laughed. 

'No she won't even dare because she loves you guys" the queen replied. 

'We know she does but we now know and we are sure that but due to the king taking her along with the cocoon she is not herself anymore" Ash said. 

"She is calling out to Cosmo but by doing so she is putting the girl through severe pain and she knows that the Lilith that we know would never do such a thing especially to Cosmo," Vivian said. 

'I know, I know it's just that she is my daughter and I don't want anything to happen to her but I think it's time you guys know a truth about me" the queen replied and the king walked into the room then she looked at him and he smiled.
