In the early morning where the sun is not yet visible. Only the orange hue of its light can be seen, as it slowly creeps into the azure-blue sky. Across the emerald forests; a large building looms. Its appearance has that of a large temple, with its large pillars built around each corner. A few individuals walked into the entrance with their white robes, and hoods over their heads. Priests of the great goddess of old. Angelica the light bearer, believed to have disappeared a few centuries ago. The priests and priestesses believe she had entered the higher realms and has been there to this day.Within the interior, there are two sets of pews that stood along side each other. The whole room was lit up by candles along the walls. The windows of the temple having images of a brunette woman wearing armor on her torso, along with an aura, and white feathered wings stretching out from her back. Her eyes are closed, with her hands joined by her abdomen. An exact image they imagine her to be,
Within the forest, where the chirping of wildlife is heard among the trees. Through the woods, crunching footsteps are heard as well.Alecia slowly walks her way through the forest, and continues to step on any untouched pathway that would lead her inside the dense wilderness.The wild life above her, screech a variety of sounds, as they scamper through the trees. She is interrupted by a few twigs falling on her head, causing her to huff in annoyance. Still irritated by what happened earlier.Looking up, she watches as the four-limbed mammals play within the web of branches.These creatures are covered in green fur with darker stripes running along their body. She stands for a moment, gazing into the one's button-like eyes staring down at her. The creature loses interest and continues on through the forest. The tight feelings in her chest begin to loosen, these animals, their appearance, their eyes, urging her to chuckle with a gentle smile. With a soft sigh, her smile fades; the ne
The ship now stays at a fixed speed above trees. Inside it, the engine's sound is muffled down into a calming tone. Sitting back into her chair, Alecia folds her arms. "Let's break the silence." Booker said pressing a button on a small console, and the sound of music plays.Alecia turns her attention to him for a moment. Turning her gaze to the console, she looks up at Booker, his attention still focused ahead."I have a small question," he said, his words urges her to blink in response. "You were going to walk all that way, and yet you didn't think to pack yourself some food or anything?" "Oh?" Narrowing her eyes, she brings her hand near her face, with her fingers near her lips, only for her to look at him."Just trying to start a conversation," he said, looking at her briefly with a calm smile. "Oh, well-" she said looking down with a thoughtful look in her eyes. "Since I was too upset at the time, I didn't think." She looks at the window beside her.Looking at her for a momen
Alecia and Booker are still within the restaurant. The small group of people stands up, amd walks their way to the exit.Alecia chuckles, and picks up the glass."True." She said with a slight smile, and takes a sip while looking at him.Booker smiles slightly with a small chuckle and stares blankly at his glass for a moment. Alecia stops smiling. Her eyes staring at him with a gentle gaze. "Booker?" She said, her voice sounding calm and peaceful. He responds by looking at her. "What's the matter?" "My sister..." he said, with a neutral expression on his face."I'm worried, I can't stop thinking about her." He looks at the glass with the green liquid. She sighs with a downcast look."How old is she?" She said with a gentle tone in her voice. "I forgot to ask." "Oh..." he said looking at her once more. "She's much younger than me. She's fifteen." "Fifteen hey." She said picking up the glass and holds it."It's strange how someone as young as her can get that sick." She takes a
From within the ship, Alecia continues to look at the window, and locks her eyes on a large dam below, only to spot a flock of winged-animals flying across it.The music from the radio ends, followed by a brief silence. "Hello again everyone on this wonderful day." A man's voice said from the radio. "I've heard recently that the empress is heading to Senteria to hold a surprise celebration tomorrow at noon." "This is wonderful news I must say." A woman's voice said in a cheerful tone."I wonder what's the surprise, it could be anything. What do you think?" "I guess we'll just have to wait and see, it will be a wonderful experience for those who are invited." The man said with a joyful tone. Alecia, widens her eyes, and looks at the console. For a long time, she never felt zo relieved."Ruth?" Alecia said in a quiet tone, while the hosts of the radio continue talking. "What?" Booker said, looking at her."Did you say something?" "My sister." Alecia, said averting her eyes to him
Booker's mother sits beside her daughter, still with her eyes closed, she gently strokes the top of Renata's head, staring at her with a gentle smile on her face. Booker gazes at Alecia with a wide-eyed look. He takes a few stwps towards her."What?" He said with a frown. "Why would you do that to yourself?""What do you expect?" Alecia said with a frown."That was the only way to help cure her." Booker widens his eyes, and frowns. "Why didn't you switch the virus to me?" He said, taking a step towards her."I barely even made it through with myself." She averting her eyes from him. "It couldn't be done that way." She looks at her own hand and closes it and opens it slowly. "Then why don't you give it to me now?" Booker said, gesturing his hsnd out.Alecia looks at him with a glare. "Don't be stupid." She lowers her hand to her side."Do you really want to do that to her? Have her living without her brother, because of a stupid decision like that?" "What makes your decision any
Booker turns his gaze to her, and looks down at the book she's holding"What book is that?" Booker said, a narrowed look in his eyes. "Oh." She said with a slight chuckle, and brings the book up to look at it."Your sister showed it to me." Booker leans in to look, and takes the book from her."What are the seraphims." He said, and frowns."I forgot she had that book." He said, looking ahead once more. "Have you read it as well?" Alecia said with a curious look in hwr eyes."I'm not sure." He said, looking at her for a brief moment. "I read most of the other books." "What are your thoughts about the seraphims?" She said, with a calm look in her eyes.Booker flickers his eyes in thought."I think that if I saw them in person, I'd be terrified." He said, slightly shaking his head and chuckles a bit. Alecia chuckles and looks ahead once more. Her smile fades, and her eyes start to flicker in thought."Excuse me." She said, turning around and steps towards the doors of the balcony.
It is now midnight. The stars in the sky above are scattered across it, as if fiery stones are embedded within a sheet. Senteria is quiet. The citizens of the city are now in their homes, and sound asleep. Only a few ships are seen flying through the streets.In one of the buildings, Alecia is seen standing near the railing of the balcony. Her eyes reflects off from the surrounding lights of the city itself. The air around her slowly moves the strands of her hair which hangs down near her shoulders.Her eyes do not move, as she continues to stare down at the streets below. Her eyes gently close for a moment, with the silence still beckoning around her. She opens her eyes, with her pupils glowing bright blue. She looks ahead of herself and turns her gaze upwards once more, she raises her hand slightly above her waist with her palm facing the sky. Transparent blue flames slither out the palm of her hand in a form of thin strings. It slowly gathers together and grows into a sphere of
