"When you were left on our doorstep...there was a note attached to the blanket that covered your body."
Gerlach paused for a moment to make sure Takara was hanging on to his every word. After reassuring himself he continued.
"The note read, 'This girls name is Takara Estuko Kaore. Her parents names are Taka and Zen Kaore. She once belonged to a world called Rama but now she lives on Earth. I ask you now if you may take care of her instead of us. She is in great danger. If you can keep her safe until we come for her we would be forever grateful. Also Takara is not human, she is what you humans call an Angel. This note is a form of magic also. It will disappear in 3 days. The note on Takara's blanket is only activated if she is torn away from us forcefully. Again if you can take care of Takara we would be forever grateful.
-Taro, Takako and Zinan Kaore(Takara's siblings.)'"
Gerlach looked away from Takara when he finished telling this to Takara. Takara stared at her foster parents absolutely astonished by the news she had just received.
"A note? A note about me! Why didn't you say anything about this earlier?" Takara exclaimed furiously. Eir tried to grab Takara's hand to console her but, Takara pulled away from her 'mothers' hand.
"Takara please..." Eir was in tears at her daughters reaction.
Takara was fuming and just as she thought she might run from the room something odd happened. The chair Takara was sitting on froze. Takara jumped up from her chair startled and stared at the ice covered chair.
