2024-10-29 19:42:56Life is a constant flow and time helps to keep us in mind of the changes that had come while living life. People come and go. They come like a wind and leave like grains of sand over the hourglass in one summer afternoon tea. They are the evident formula of life. With them you’ll be aware of how many time had flowed during your merry moments in the clouds of happiness.
The air doesn’t seem acrid but they are scrunching their faces like there is such horrid smell in the air. Among them, the one with the worst expression stood up from kneeling. Hanging on his face were coldness that no one had ever seen before.
Even Tien didn’t see it before.
Sky walks toward Maria that had collapses beside Ki Lin and desperately reaches his hand but her heart stopped beating faster than she could

---Mattheus. I had never wished of anything right now but I shouldn’t have went here and witness this overwhelming pressure he could feel coming from that one bloodied individual that keeps on moving even if he is unconscious. “Human…what…why? That…” Ciel couldn’t form his words because the fight in front of him rendered him speechless. Regardless of what there expression would be, I am the same with them because I had never wish to witness a fight this huge! Three individuals. Among them the weakest could be on par with three Sky! How?! I just wanted to confirm my curiosity but what is this Sky? What did you do?! I run almost making me ride the wind but faster than me were two monsters that had sprang out of their feet when they felt and smell the familiar person that now is being toyed by

Am I seeing things? I pinched my arm just to check and I am not. That...his body become translucent until it disappeared like grains of sand. Droplets of him fallen to the ground and almost immediately, plants and grasss had grown in an instant. The remaining part of him swirls in the air before it travelled to where Sky is in his half awake and half asleep state. Both Ciel and I were speechless and none of us could identify what had happened. We're both equally stunned and seeing that we are just the only that knows what happened, we don't know if we are lucky or not. Gods... They are the highly beings that said to be the guardians of Skyscraper and the provider of all good things and blessings. They are the highest form of life that had long time isolate themselves so that the humans could live. Their authorities alone could shatter a skull. A wrath is equivalent to catastrophe that could change the geographical structure of the
The Great One Upper hand
"How come you are still alive?" Unease was evident to his voice before his head looks around. He is not minding the slashes and shallow cuts that the half awake and sleeping Cygnelius is giving him. His eyes were focused solely to the two individual that never come down to mediate on Skyscraper's matters not unless they came with their God...his older brother. Why now?! In this critical moment? I shouldn't have played with this lowly human and just killed him instantly! Right. That is what I should do. Arao's bloodlust oozes out and the two sensitive beings had detected it before he could be successful. "My Lord, it is proper etiquette to entertain the guest and not be neglected like this. His Majesty will be sad if He knows about this." Donned in black with his striking red gaze, he put Arao's hand down and in his other hand was holding the brat that seems in his flo

CerberoCielAraoAh-asNestand lastly Thanato that had stopped crying the moment Sky, no, Cygnelius told her about what would happen if she doesn't calm her dear father that had already come to where Nest and her were. Thanato had noticed it and immediately went in front of Nest and spread her arm to stop his father that is having that murderous face ready to slaughter the guy who took a liking to his child."STOP THERE OR I WILL GET ANGRY AT YOU FATHER!" She yelled with all her might and upon hearing what she just said, the glimmer in his eyes came back and he stopped moving halfway before the nails in his hand could dig deep into Nest's neck."But darling!----" Before he could continue, Thanato glared at him that made him automatically shut his mouth."Tsk...tsk...but anyway what is undertaking right n
The Great One Cygnelius
"Shroud in darkness, cover thy in need. Answer my plea, death blessing." In an instant a chime of bells sounded which usually can be heard when there is a mass for the dead member of the family. But after the sound, a volume of black mist swirled all over Cygnelius and seeped inside his body while some settled to the daggers that had connected scabbard into the tip of hilt, making it longer. He dash towards Arao and flipped in the air before he acted like attacking that made Arao thrust his sword forward to him but he spinned once again and aimed at his neck which Arao avoided in hair's length. Cygnelius landed far behind him and clicked his tongue."I guess I'm not used to this kind of weapon. I prefer a scythe." He complained before he shakes the dagger with a little blood he got from Arao. It sizzled when it touches the ground and the soil burned black. The dagger glowed as well because of the extreme heat but there is a special material that made it able to

Ciel is dumbfounded and at the same time the beating of his heart become wild like a drum. He thought this dead organ of his went already cease of function but it made him lift his hand and clutches his chest attempting to make it calm. Nest seeing this can only shake his head while checking Alena's body that might affect the ritual. She's a beautiful lady with a heart chained to their King. He only could feel sorry for this child who had fallen to this woman that only sees him as a younger brother."Nest! Nest! Should I really have to do this?! Without her permission? That's rude!""Then what are you going to do? Do you want to save her? Stop being a child! You are an adult now! You have to decide to something that can affect both parties because you can only save one side! That's the cruel truth of having to decide kid! That's how to be an adult!"

Cerbero went up to his feet and Thanato skidded to the side and the smile on her face disappeared. It was replaced with hair rising expression.Cygnelius slowly went up to his feet and the blood spilled on his leg upon being forced and squeezed. His vision was slowly being painted with red when the cut in his head popped and the blood flowed down. His gazed turned towards Arao who is looking down at him with a different aura that he couldnt withstand. It was pushing him down and even if he has the aura of Buwan, he still feel the oppressing weights of his. It's like mocking him this way. He chuckled upon the irony of how things went.But he will not be drawn to the negatives. He pushed his body up despite the spilling amount of blood that is coming out of his body. He coughs out more and he see things hilarious enough to make him look pathetic from just one carelessness. When he put his blade into her shoulder, Arao conjured smal

In constant blues, my mind is in the oceans of memories Limbs tied and breathing can hardly heard There is only a moment I wanted to rewind again That is the feeling of your body within my embrace. -- C. Sliding to the side Cerbero moved his head to the side and dodges the sun balls that felt so hot within close range. He coated himself with aura that enhances his armor that guarded him to safety. Steams are coming out of his body but he felt no pain from it. Arao pushes forward and swing his blade to aim for Cerbero's neck but he deflected it by controlling his mist to push the aura blade out. But some of Arao's aura were making small wounds onto Cerbero's body. But it healed almost the same time Arao is making a wound onto his body. Tremors after tremors, earthquak

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

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.
