Their eyes refuse to believe.
Risette who had recovered from the intimidation over Sky’s authority to her, the blood of the fangs still flow in her veins and that is what making her frustrated that what if, they drag her away with her kids? That’s what worries a mother’s heart of hers. Unlike to her worries the burly man Callisto listed Sky as someone he has to capture and eliminate since he deemed him dangerous that could be a threat to people of the empire. Although they are staying alert to possible betrayal or surprise attack the monster around them, their eyes were looking forward on what deal they agreed. But all they could see was the lady watching Sky cleaning hi

The Great One What bullshit?
Central Square, Luminus Empire.Chaotic.That is what Sky thought of everything that is coming to him. How the prince identified him as the enemy? He is not even using any death power that might mistake him into a force of the dark. Even though he retreated, the prince still moved forward and attacked him on which causes Fall to intervene in between them by conjuring a sturdy barrier that even this strong prince can shatter, saving Sky the energy he doesn’t wanted to use by playing with this little prince.A loud crash made Sky looked at Nikkita who is now coated with blood of her opponent. She looks scary but Sky felt proud seeing that his new acquaintance is this strong.

The tension that had garnered around is escalating to new heights and the knights that just arrived although confused, their loyalty are solely to their master since they gave pledge to the royal crown. Sky could see it and it actually sucks.He releases his aura more to let him know who he is but the prince might be or not pretending to not see the uniqueness of his aura. He is giving him a blind eye. Which he doesn’t know if a good thing or not?“Are you that naïve your highness? Or your position makes you arrogant like this?”“Watch your words! You--!!“I did not permit you to speak yet!” The knight slammed to the ground by just a force of mana coming from Sky. The others were in shock and couldn’t respond well. They couldn’t believe what they eyes are seeing. Their great leader was slammed to the ground without a proper fight! Even the prince d

They are nearing the west desert which Allena’s tribe is located. Along with them, the two children were bickering with one another on Sky’s side. It is making his head pound and now he regrets being close with this child.“You okay Sky?” Fall landed beside them and near the little girl who sneak close to Sky and was like avoiding him. The children have the same hair color and they were dressed like a pair. If Nana has a soft calm face, the boy named Roku has a grumpy face that hated the world. Although he has creased brows and allergic lips to smile, he still looks cute. Sky sighs before he shook his head.“I wanted to sleep.” Hearing this, Allena looked back and checked Sky before whispering to Alesha who nodded in return. But before they could do something for Sky, Nikkita slowed down and conjured a water bag which makes them curious but they got surprise when Sky ride on it and lie to sleep.&nb
The Great One Missed Time (2)
If the Luminus Empire that already wrecked from the meteor shower, this is a whole lot of a definition of the word wrecked. Fire is everywhere, scorching everything that can be turned ablaze. The smell of burnt flesh together with the black smoke that is engulfing the place were horrid to their eyes and nose, making tears out and continuously falling. And like the others, Sky is going through such difficulty with his limbs chained with a special shackle. He cannot use his mana and death power. His necklace that hidden inside his clothes all these time was not there anymore, the same one his father planted something in it. His fingers felt numb and the color differs from his natural skin is now looked not so good for the eyes. Bruises that almost turned black and cuts that had reached deep inside his skin that no longer bleeds but traces of dried blood were still there. He tried to squints his eyes and look for his rings but the one his father had given him is

She closes her eyes and embraces his father who softly caresses his back while being inside his arms. They are dancing in a song that isn’t glad nor sad to have the long face they had in their faces. The music from the player that is only the furniture inside the room while the darkness that had been their comforts since the chaos befallen the lands and bodies of people had become fertilizers or the land itself. There is nothing they could do.The war had already started between the two.“My daughter, we are nothing but a piece being moved by our master. That child has his own destiny to fulfill and if he chooses to do the other, we have to respect his choice and never questioned it. Since His Majesty told us, the Skyscraper depends on him.” They twirl to the musi

I wanted to cuss it out but this fucked up situation can be described more than that!We are supposed to be going to the west desert land in according to Sky he met this beautiful lady called Alena. I had my doubts but since Sky told me that she is trustable, I didn’t cause any more trouble for Sky and followed them but when we met the twin blades that we later found out after they had attacked us, Nikkita was just waiting for an opportunity and Sky went right into it, head first! That stupid brat who doesn’t really believe in dangers just went on and sleep right into Nikkita’s bed of pearls. It’s like water but has a hidden opening like a clam.

Those aaaaaah! My brows creases when I couldn’t scream it out and brush the now short ---red hair I loved so much. To survive in this fucking land you have to be a monster like them too.

Epilogue (2)
"Are you sure we are good to go now, leaving your majesty alone? HEY! SAY SOMETHING!" I grab at her shoulders which showed me her crying face. I got startled and don't know what to do, I saw her wipe her tears and made a protective barrier made out of mist.My brows furrowed and I couldn't understand why. We are staying a float in the sky. We couldn't land in the ground burning in fire."Mnnng.." I heard Fall gaining his consciousness and grabbing his head. Ciel and Alena were holding one another, he seems like feeding him with essence to keep her from losing control of not having being fed. While Thanato was keeping herself together. I couldn't understand what is wrong with her.A blinding light made us sleepy and then everything went blank. I heard the ringing sound of someone calling my name and I feel like it was something familiar.---"Nestor! Nestor!" Som

Epilogue
I thought that death is something painful that I would go through excruciating pain and my bones felt like being pound into dust but true to what the others said that what it would feel like.I lifted my body with eyes still shut close. It felt peaceful. Is this what it feels like being in heaven? Does Skyscraper have this Heaven and Hell? I'm sure Hades' palace is too grand to be called the dump of evil souls. But anyway, why does it feels so gentle and warm in here? I opened my eyes since I think it was safe not to pretend that I was sleeping.My limbs forgot to move. It was a utopia before the pollution from human waste for upgrading their way of living. Greeneries are abundant and the water from the stream I am near were as clear as crystal blue that reflects the bright sky. Animals from big to small were coexisting with one another. A predator taking care of a prey is a rare sight to see! I am mesmerized from what I am seein

Hold my hand I'm sleepy (2)
The space felt peaceful but there is a lot of scattered bodies drifting with the dust. They had been piled one after another and almost making a wall to protect Skyscraper. I went inside the mana ball that is pushing the carcasses away and I could see Arao happily humming while still shutting his eyes close. I tap his shoulders. He looks frail pitiful in his child's form. Maybe that's why Mother is always beside him. He looks like a child that needed attention."Brother Sky! Are we done? Can I open my eyes now?" I was pulled out of my thoughts when he suddenly talks. I smiled and patted his head."You can open it up now Ra. Don't be surprise to where we are alright?" I informed him since this is rather a new place for him to see. He move his head up and down before putting down his hands and jumped towards me. I chuckled and then I patted his head again."Are you ready for the journey that we will take?" I

Hold my hand I'm sleepy,
I walked towards Arao and in my shoulders strapped and quietly hanging is a green guitar that shines a different glow when Melody uses it. A sparkling particle which in every move it makes, a powdery dust were coming out of it, making flowers, images and all the glee a person wanted to see. In my hands were two daggers that eminates the contrasting aura of life and death. Mixing together into a color of black and white, forming a familiar symbol that had been the picture of balance.Death and mana were circling around me, not meeting or greeting, going on their own way. The veins in my body popped and the chest that had been hurting for pulsating hard is now started to bleed. It made me smile."Can you help me out for the last time now? I know you have been wanting to pull me out of this but if you do that, the whole of the Skyscraper will fall and that is something I wanted to avoid since all the people that I hold dear is livin

End of the line
It was dark like Cygnelius and I's consciousness. But the different is this one has a sound of a child crying. It was faint at first, I thought it was just a hum in the air but as I walk closer to the source of it, the clearer it gets. There is nothing much in the darkness and it wasn't creepy at all. The comforts it could bring to you is boundless yet your eyes are covered from the real comfort it could do. I walked some more and I saw a little girl squatting in the ground while hugging her knees. She's hiding her face in it and her shoulders were going up and done. I went to my knees and waited until she calmed a little bit."Are you feeling a little better Hope?" But she didn't reply or even look to my face. She is still weeping on her own. I sat beside her and I was glad she didn't push me away. I stayed there and wait since the flow of time in the consciousness was faster than the outside. She perked up but still hiding her face. I smiled and didn't talk th

I bid my farewell to the both of them and went out of my body. It felt like my circadian phase had been messed up and I felt dizzy like what you will feel when riding a plane.I opened my eyes and was greeted with a quiet bursting of flames and there is no roars or shouts from Arao. What happened?I roam my eyes and couldn't find them both."Hope!" I shouted but I get no reply."Hope!" I repeated it once again but there is only silence. I couldn't feel her presence. I just went out for a short moment, please be alive! I used my wings and I kicked the foothold and my eyes scanned the surrounding but the fiery sea of fire is all I could see."Hope! Where are you?" I glided to the rocks on the sides and I almost slammed at the protruded rock behind it. I almost said goodbye to my head.I just said to keep him occupied! Why disappear with

["That mostly is my plan. Even though I wanted to give him a very rightful punishment but as things goes, I cannot satisfy my desires in exchange of the Skyscraper's survival...ain't I?"] I fixes my astral clothes just to dust off some anxiety inside of me from talking with her and seeing that serious beautiful face makes me fluster! It's different from talking with Thanato or Phoebe, this one is the real beauty but we have been talking since earlier, she haven't told me her name. Addressing her with ma'am and milady is too formal. I swallowed the lump in my throat and decided to ask her of her name.["But if you wouldn't mind...could you tell me your name so that I could address you correctly? It seems like to formal for addressing you milady all the time... So if you don't mind telling, grant my foolish wish?"] This aint me. This is because of her blinding beauty! It's making me more nervous, seeing her intensely staring at me right now. Why is her personality

Steak - well done
The sun is the core and basic needs of a human being to survive. It provides nutrients and warmth also said to be the origin of life in Skyscraper. It was connected to the source of magic and sorcery. Without it acting as a medium, mana wouldn't be produced from the environment. In and which if you looked at it into a chef's perspective, it was the important condiment needed to make a dish flavorful.Mana is the requirement to do spells and heal someone. It's the basic requirement to do magic and the sun is the provider producer of it.I don't study college but in our highschool biology, Mrs. Reyes told us that the most important star between moon and the sun was the provider of vitamins and warmth. I wouldn't argue with that.The sun is the big ball of hot flames and many times bigger than the Earth. It's essential to living since humans are not immune to freezing cold and low temperature.
