Heopen his eyes in startled.

"Unfamiliar ceiling...."

His eyes look to the side and see a window.

"The window is.... Big?"

He slowly sit up. That's when he realized it.

"I'm on a bed? Who's bed? And why is my legs so... Short?"

He raise his hands and his eyes widen even more.

"It's..... Small? A size of a child...."

He look around the room and see a mirror on a wall beside a wardrobe.

He try to stand up but even his legs can't reach the floor.

"How.... Wait, why is this..."

He slowly get down from the bed and walk to the mirror.

What greet him is not his black hair or brown eyes but white hair and red eyes.

"... Eh?" He uttered in shock, now even more shock as what comes out is not his voice but a child's voice.

He take a step back from the mirror.

"What.... Is this..."

Then there's a knock on a door before the person behind the door open it.

The person is a woman, who was holding a tray, and when she sees the child woke up, the tray fall to the floor, along with a bowl of water and a fabric.

The woman looks at the child with wide eyes, relief and affectionate as she look at the child.

Then the woman turn around.

"Honey! Orion has wake up!" The woman shout in relief.

After that, the woman walks up to the child, Orion, and hug him.

"Oh, my child. Finally, finally you woke up. Mommy-" But the child cut off her words.

"Who are you?" He said, looking at the woman, in front of him with a blank and cold eyes.

"Mommy? She call herself mommy? Who is she? My parents died a long time ago so who is she?" Zen frown as he think of what had happened right now.

The woman flinch before pulling away, looking at the child in front of her with wide eyes.

"Why..."

Right then, a man appear from the door.

Looking inside the room, a man burst into tears.

"Ah, my child, you finally wake up." The man walks up to them and hug the child and the woman.

The child frown.

"Who are you two." He said, looking at both the strangers.

The man pull away, his eyes wide in shock before he turn to the woman.

The woman shake her head with saddened look.

The man turn back to the child.

"Orion... Why you say that? It's me, daddy and mommy...." The man sound so heart broken.

Yet Zen just look at both the man and the woman with unfamiliar and wary eyes.

"... Who? Who is Orion?" He said in wary.

The man's eyes wide more, and the woman looks like she's going to cry.

"Oh... No... My son..." The woman really cry after that.

"Son?" Zen tilt his head. "Who?"

The man stand up before leaving the room. "I'll call a physician!" He said while leaving.

The woman hug Zen, crying.

"My son... Oh, my son. Why did this happen to you. Oh lord Veliria, please, what my son had done to deserve this..." Zen only glance at the woman, confused and speechless.

"Veliria? Who is that? And Orion..." A glimpse of the name Orion Marionette appear in his mind.

"That child huh... What does it have to do with me?" Zen thought, more confuse.
