           And Arthur started his narration at the time when Xandro's parents first met....

          I'm happy I have gotten my license to fly an airplane and now I could finally fly wherever I want to go. Henry was thrilled while he was flying his small airplane at the top of the big mountains. He was flying for some time when he suddenly felt thirsty. He opened and drank the canned drink that he brought with him. Shortly he noticed a massive white house on the top of the mountain which was filled and surrounded with tall trees. From the airplane he was flying, the massive house looked so fantastic for Henry. So he decided to fly his airplane nearer. When he got nearer, a large group of birds suddenly appeared flying out of the trees and onto the front of his plane. Henry maneuvered his plane away from the group of birds. 

Suddenly, Henry felt something hit and got caught in front of his plane and instantly losing control of it. His plane plunged downward cyclical. Henry fell downward from the plane he was flying. Henry felt the strong winds as he continued falling downward. He was so was so terrified and thought that it was his end. Suddenly he realized he stopped from falling and floated. He glanced to his right and he saw the most beautiful girl that he had ever seen his whole life. Shortly, he noticed that his beautiful savior had white wings. Her black and shiny hair was long and she was in a long white dress reaching up to her feet. Even if he was so afraid for his life, he couldn't help but smile at his angelic savior while she was slowly flying him downwards. Henry adoringly stared at her beautiful face while she held him with her arms as they got nearer the massive white house. He was deeply captivated by the girl’s beauty. Shortly, he felt his foot slowly touching the ground. Slowly, the girl released him standing on the ground and smiled at him. Still Henry couldn't 

speak, his eyes was still glued towards the alluring beauty of his flying savior. This girl is incredibly beautiful and she smelled great too. What perfume is she using, did she wear it because she saw me flying earlier, Henry thought, smiled asking himself. Afterwards, the girl slightly flew upwards standing. She continued floating in the air near him and slowly flew backwards. Gently, she continued flying backwards and standing and Henry was stunned with what he saw. Slowly, his beautiful savior flew down to a half broken body. After the two half broken bodies of the girl were attached to each other, her two wings slowly disappeared. Henry looked at her wide eyed and realized that her savior was a half-bodied human-like flying creature (manananggal).

          "You're a half-bodied creature" horrified, Henry shouted loud.

          Shortly, the girl looked and walked towards Henry.

          "Don't come near me, please don't!" Henry walked 

backwards fearing for his life, turned around and ran as fast as he could away from the beautiful half-bodied creature. He ran and ran without looking back from where he came from, he didn't know where to go. He had run so far with his new shoes. He was still horrified with what he had witnessed. He kept on running until slowly he felt so tired and exhausted. Trying to catch his breath, he felt on his knees. Not far away from where he was kneeling, he saw his small airplane. It was burning, its parts was turned into pieces and was scattered all over the place. He was still catching his breath from exhaustion as he looked at what was left of his airplane. Slowly, he recovered from fatigue after his long run. Henry calmed himself down and thought deeply. If that girl didn't saved me from falling, I could have been gone by now. Maybe she isn't really evil, maybe there's a reason why fate brought me here. He stood up and looked back from where he came from. I should go back to that girl, I have to thank her for saving me from that fall, he silently decided. 

He walked back towards the massive white house. He walked faster even if he was still afraid of what she might do to him when she sees him once again. When he got near the house, he saw the girl, sitting and crying with her head down in front of a round table. He looked at her and the whole place for a while. Slowly, Henry approached her. The girl immediately noticed him and tried hard to stop herself from crying looking intently at Henry. She didn't say anything. Henry walked and stood on the other side of the small round table.

          "You came back, are you still afraid of me, huh?" the beautiful girl asked Henry.

          "No, not anymore, a little maybe," was Henry's hesitant answer.

          "Don't you want to sit down; are you afraid that I might eat you, huh?"

          "If you hadn't saved me earlier, I could have been gone by 

now, and if you want to feed on me now, probably I don't have the right to get mad at you, maybe a little sulky, yes," Henry's hesitant joke to his beautiful savior.

          The girl smiled slightly after hearing what Henry said to her.

          "Sit down, I suppose you could see that it doesn't fit me to fed on humans."

          "Certainly, it doesn't fit you," Henry answered fast looking and admiring the girl's beautiful face as he sat down in front of her.

          "I don't really feed on humans. Every day I only eat fruits, the chicken and the goats I'm growing in my backyard," the lovely girl narrated looking at Henry.

          "Really... you eat chickens and goats?" Henry in Levi's jeans asked.

          "Yes, but before I start eating, I see to it that it is properly seasoned and cooked. In fact I like using many kinds of spices to make sure that my dishes taste really delicious," her hesitant joke 

looking at Henry's face.

           "Ah... it's good that I am truly saved from falling and from becoming a feed."

          "And don't worry; my body doesn’t get broken into halves during full moon. It only happens when I no longer have a choice and if it's really necessary. Just like earlier, when I saw you fell down from your airplane," she explained further.

          "Really, you mean you'll always be this beautiful for me, you won't get broken into two halves right in front of me, huh?" was Henry's fast question.

          "Why, are you going to fall down from your airplane once again, huh?" her fast reply.

          "Oh no, that was definitely the last, just promise me you won't get broken especially when I'm looking at you this way, huh."

          "Yes."
