Midday on the lands of sun.
The heat is scorching but darkness envelops the lands. Total black and you couldn’t even see your body because of it. Sky is wondering why, the place he woke up was too bright for him to open his eyes from. What freak is robbing the light just so he could make himself better? Well of course we already know who that is.
Sky is roaming aimlessly because he couldn’t recognize the place anymore. It felt so different and only negative emotions are lingering in the air. What happened when he was asleep? Not again with many changes and he is not aware of any!
He scrunches his face and preventing himself from getting angry but what is happening to him is what making him forgot the promise of maintaining the balance of good and evil in this Skyscraper. He just wanted
Sky was remembering the same darkness in the beloved abode of Hades that until now, haven't contacted him yet.Yes, he is thankful that he rescued him from that hot tempered sun but it has been many years and being strong like him, it is not reasonable for him to recuperate for that long or maybe, there is something going on?"Sky look! Loooook!" Melody pointed left and Sky is not joking, all he could see was black and his sight couldn't penetrate beyond. The kid notices this and puffed his cheeks until it reddens and seeing this, Sky scratches the back of his head and started putting mana on his eyes which quickly enhances it so that he could see the horde of monsters below them reaching to their feet in silence. The hair in his body automatically stood up and he gulped the surprise down his throat before he could attract more attention. Melody reaches to the hem of his shirt and he brought back his stares to him. He quivered his lips
"AAAAAAAAAH" Sky releases his grip towards his thread and let it float in the air just so he could cover his ears. This bitch...Sky kicked to the ground and with him was the thread who moved in what he thought it would go. That quite made the two taken aback because when they were about to move, the thread rushes towards them and they both got wounded over their ankles. A quake was made when they landed on the corpse filled land mixed with murky substances that Melody and Sky avoided to get to them. They tried to stand but the moment they put forced into their limbs, they fall again like bridge in a famous song in his past world. Sky and Melody looked at one another before they giggled like little kids over their bully friends. "Are you satisfied or should I make them suffer more?" He whispered to Melody who looked at him with glistening eyes and nodded his head until it hurts and that made Sky chuckled and put his hand over
A long silence had engulped them.Sky was staring to vast nothingness with his enhanced eyes.Is what he did the right thing? Or is it something he had done out of his whim? His silence is eating him and seeing that the earlier snarl and growl of monsters below them are nothing now, it seems like he completely eradicated them. He took a breath and his lungs ballooned before it deflated after releasing the air he caged in for a while. Is it from relief? A sigh of guilt? But what robbed him of his thoughts was when Melody flew high on top of his head and patted it with a smile that could cure a broken heart.Why would he succumbed to such weakness and thoughts? He made the action knowing full well what he needed to take consequences of. So why is he drowning into thoughts that had already given an answer already? Sky chuckled that made Melody giggled as well for mistooking it because of what he did but partiall
"Ne, Sky are we still far from that place you are talking about? I am booooooored!" Hitting Sky's chest, it has been earlier since he's been throwing this kind of tantrum. Popping nerves are evident into his forehead but he couldn't be angry. Because if he think of what happened earlier when he told him that they are still far and he should stop yelling like a baby, his ears were assaulted with screams and ear drum shattering shouts on which he will not going to want for the next years of his life. The fact that he was being hit like some sort of a punching bag to this kid who has the strength of a grown up with a mana strength that incomparable to any of in this land.Bro, you would feel why Sky is staying silent and not uttering anything despite having popped nerves that really wanted to squeeze the life out of this child. But to mind the alrea
The inside of the house that Sky made of clay wasn’t that bad. His mastery in carpentry and molding had been in maximum and so he could be considered as one of the greatest builder in the empire. Even though the outer walls of the house are not accommodating and so rough, the inside felt like being in a prestige presidential suite in his past life.There is fabric hanging on the windows he made for ventilations and they are locked windows for security. Each possible entrance was enchanted with alarm and defensive barrier so that possible attacks wouldn’t hit them. There’s a maximum of ten rooms and there is three bathrooms for them not to wait for turns.The kitchen is wide enough for a family to go around and furniture are already laid place like it was made prepared for so many days. Currently they are cleaning the children that are
éI didn’t mean to do that…or the intentions of making them the living sacrifices that they wanted. I…just wanted to help. I…didn’t mean to drag them in my shits… I…never wishes to do that! I…I…Why am I being kept alive?û
Sky is in a state of lost. He felt like floating in the sky of endless darkness. He felt the wind that is blowing him to somewhere he doesn’t know but feeling this, he felt comfortable. He felt light and in the embrace of a caring mother he had wanted in the entirety of his lives.But he was just fighting that odd woman so why is he drifting here in the place he doesn’t want to go away from?Molecular transmission.His mind snapped and he felt a great force pulling him back to somewhere and what he is guessing was right. Sky came back and was immediately at the back of the lady and so he imbued his sword with death aura and mana before slashing it to her very body. Her reaction is a tad late and while she turns to see the doom bringer that had given her the last judgment.
Sky's eyes sharply turned towards the man standing with a very dark aura surrounding him. His face was scarred and one of his eye were blind. Sky's facial expression softened and his lip quivered but before he could rush towards him a soft ding made him pause and look to the far right.No explosion. No surprises but there is someone falling with red feathers being scattered like confetti. Sky focuses his sight towards the being and his eyes widen to see it dead while being swallowed by death aura. He automatically turned towards the man who had just arrived but all he could see was an empty space and a soft gust of wind.Blag.The body hit the ground and the murky substance evaporated until there is a patch of clear earth that is visible to their naked eye. Another soft ding was heard and one by one, bodies were falling like wishing stars on that faithful moment. Sky smiled and decided to help.But he doesn't know how to do it.
Hello everyone, this is Twelfth Moon. I would like to thank all of you that had read this till the ends and stayed from my rollercoaster and messed up writing. I would like to thank my friends that had been my inspiration and had given me the mental support that I needed to finish this book. Cygne had been a difficult character to express from the ups and downs of his emotions and the confusing way I might have portrayed him. I would like to apologized if I made some confusing plots that might get you bored from reading it. Again I wish you all well during this time and I hope that you guys achieved the things you wanted in life and continue on living. I love you guys and thank you for reading The Great One. -Twelfth Moon
"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
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
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
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
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
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. Like the hum
