CHAPTER TWO

“Oh! Hello there,” said the blue-lady to the two sisters, “You must be the two girls who offered to live here! Come, I'll show you where you will be staying!” She convinced Kiki and Ashlynn to follow her, and stopped in front of the house where the two would be staying...or at least, where the house should've been. It was another empty lot, only a little bit bigger!

“Oh dear! Oh dearie! Uhrmmm.... I'm terribly sorry! It seems the house has deteriorated.... I'm so sorry! I had no idea! You see, ever since that person mysteriously left......!?”

“Wait! Slow down!” Kiki said, “Now, you said... mysterious person? What do you mean?”

“Well... Long before you nice girls moved here, there was a person who could use a special magic. They were called an 'Essence Master'; a person who can use many, various special items called Essences.” clarified the woman. Ashlynn's eyes widens when she said this, “This person helped maintain the town; doing things that other people couldn’t—or sometimes, wouldn't—do. They were a real help for many decades... Until they mysteriously left one day. Nobody knows where they went... Even to this day.”

“Are you sure they didn't die?” pondered Kiki.

“No, they did not. We looked every where. We looked in every building, every cave, even every body of water! But they were nowhere to be found...” said the woman.

“How much was known about this person?” asked Kiki.

“Not much. Some people didn't even know there true gender! But I hear that they were the descendent of a powerful wizard...” said the woman.

“I see...” said Kiki.

“Now, I don't mean to be blunt, but... Are any of you girls Essence Masters?” asked the woman.

“Aah...” Kiki started, “No, ma'am, I don't think we....”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Wait!” Ashlynn yelped, “I think I might...”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Ashlynn? You're an Essence Master?” questioned Kiki in astonishment.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Well... I'm not certain.... But I have this weird talent; I've always thought I was telekinetic or something. I would lift items with my mind, and move them with a motion of my hand... But it only worked on some items. I had never told anyone, because... I feared I would wind up in a freak circus, or something....”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Ash... I think you're an Essence Master!” Kiki cried. “Uhmm.. Miss? Do you know any...”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Oh, goodness!” said the woman, “I forgot to properly address myself! My name is Rosalyn P. Marshall, and I am the Mayor of this town! And, may I catch you're names again?”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Oh, yes! My name is Kiki Calypso,” said Kiki, “And my little sister is Ashlynn Calypso—but she prefers to be called Ash.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Marvelous!” cried Rosalyn.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Ms. Rosalyn? Do you know any ways on how to test Ash's Essence skills?” asked Kiki.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Ah! Yes! We will have practice tasks for Ash and her Essence skills—various trials, essentially. There was also a special shed that came with this house. It used to be a special warehouse for building furniture with blocks and Essences. This used to be the house of the old Essence master, you know.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Really,” said Kiki, “That is truly amazing! If only the house was still here and sturdy...”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Meh,” said Ash, “In my opinion, I think its better to start something new. You can't live in someone else's past, or society will expect you to be like that person. Start over new, and they'll think you're a new person.... and stuff like that.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“I'd never known that Ash could be so wise...” Kiki thought.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Excellent!” Rosalyn squeaked, “We will begin the trials tomorrow. For now, until the house and shed are re-built; you can stay the nights in the hotel. Free of charge!”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Free of charge?” the girls asked, delighted. “Thank you so much!”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Indeed,” said Rosalyn, “And I think you'll see someone there you'll both recognize...”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Recognize? What do you mean?” asked Ash.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Hmm hmm...” Rosalyn chuckled, “I think you'll know what I mean, when you see them...” The two girls were unsure about this; yet at the same time, they were excited to see who it was.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“I'll escort you to the Florapolis Hotel. Follow me!” The girls followed Rosalyn to the hotel. It was near the center of the town. The girls walked past a big fountain with stone fish. On the other side of the fountain, they saw what looked like a flower shop, as it had a big wooden carved flower as the sign. They kept walking, and they eventually reached the hotel; it wasn't actually that far a walk, as it turned out. They walked inside, through a big, spinning glass door. The two girls and Rosalyn went through the door and found themselves in the main lobby. Kiki and Ash were surprised to see who was there. Kiki seemed the most astonished of all.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Kiki? Ash? These nice kids run the local hotel! I don't suppose you know any of them?”said Rosalyn.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Rosalyn!” gasped Kiki, “I know all of them...!” In front of her, Kiki saw her three best childhood friends. “Parker... Buddy... Lyndsay... It's you!” She ran up to the the three of them, and they all group-hugged.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“GROUP HUG!!” Ash yelled, and ran to the group and hugged with them. Everyone was smiling, and Rosalyn looked delighted.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“This is amazing!” Kiki exclaimed, “Rosalyn, how did you...”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“I heard these two boys talking about how you'd come back to live with them. Lyndsay was super excited, too.” explained Rosalyn. “Do you know each other from long ago, or something?”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Oh, yes,” said Kiki, “Before my mother died, my family and their family always saw each other. My mom and Ms. Bonham were best friends.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Oh, so your mothers were close friends?” confirmed Rosalyn, “That's good. It's a shame Ms. Calypso died... It wasn't too recent, hopefully?”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Actually, ma'am, its the whole purpose of us moving here.” said Kiki, “Our mother died just a week ago...”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“What? My, my!” exclaimed Rosalyn, “That's terrible news! Oh, I'm so sorry! I feel so...”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“It's okay, Miss Mayor,” said Ash, “It's not your fault! You don't have to feel bad for us.”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Thank... Thank you, Ashlynn. I must admit, I overreact at times. I apologize.” said Rosalyn.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Not a problem!” said Ash. “Kiki, come on! Lets register for our room!”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Oh, okay, Ash!” said Kiki. The two sisters strode up to the front desk, and everyone got bact to their places. Now, everyone was so happy, they were fooling around; and now they were acting as if they were in a silly play. Kiki began, and talked to Buddy at the front desk.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Hello, good sir,” she said, “May you tell me more about this hotel?”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Why yes, good ma'am,” Buddy played along, “This is the Florapolis Hotel. I am Buddy Bonham, your faithful bellhop. My brother here is Parker Bonham, and he is the chef. And this nice girl is Lyndsay Bonaventura, and she is the maid. This hotel has been family-run for many years. Now, is there anything else you need?”

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“One room, please!” kidded Kiki.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“One room, free of charge!” said Buddy, as he grabbed a room key and dropped it into Kiki's hand.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“Thank you, good sir!” said Kiki. Everyone became a bit more serious now.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“You will be staying in Room 201,” said Parker, seriously, “Buddy will take your luggage for you.” Kiki turned around and called for Ash. Ash dashed over, and the two walked towards the elevator.

<p style="margin-bottom:0in">“You guys are weird.” Ash complained. The girls stood in the elevator, and turned to face the front. The gold elevator doors slowly closed in front of the two girls, as they waved goodbye to everyone in the lobby...
