(LIGHT AND DARK: THE TRUTH) “EMIE, WHO IS KYLE?” The question and exact words that Emie expected to hear from the Maiden. The thought and the moment that she’s been waiting for. The person in the middle of it is currently blinded and unknowing of the current dread of a spell. “Asking me that question means I can assume that you are prepared all through and through, Daniela.” The fact that Daniela is hesitating about. The words that are currently turning her mind upside down for believing and not. Her strong trust in Kyle is something that she just couldn’t say because she is afraid of knowing the truth. “Knowing the truth means you aren’t protected from pain and hurt. And being the Shrine Maiden is not an excuse to be sheltered by that fact, Daniela.” “You know? Everything?” “If I say that I knew more than what anyone knew and that I am someone that is not ordinary as you thought that I am. Will everything change?” Words and questions shake an
(THE ONE SHE KNOWS) “KYLE. Where is the original Kyle of this world and book, Emie?” Emie half smiles, looking directly towards the Maiden’s eyes with a mix of longing and pain. A brush of anger and deeper resentment. Then she asks the question that the Maiden should be asking first before anything else. “Have you ever wondered after what you heard and knew now, Daniela? Did it come to your mind the question asking me about, who I am?” “You are like an NPC in a game. A soulless one created to do what is asked of you to do in the first place. A mere stem that builds the flower, and a guardian of some sort.” Daniela’s direct reply and her answer. Without even blinking or showing any emotions in between. But answered that she just knew to be the right one, even though it wasn’t the answer that Emie is looking for. “Very well. Let’s replace the thought, shall we?” her tone is deafening silently. With a smile that is piercing and somehow warning. She as
(BEHIND CLOSED DOORS) “SHALL WE HEAD INSIDE?” The door opens, written with intricate symbols and letters that Daniela knew. She can read and understand, yet something is blinding her eyes to see it. And just like Emie told her a while back. “Do not pay attention to it for now Shrine Maiden. For soon, you will know everything that you needed to know.” Somewhat reading her mind, she calms her nerves and lets it all fall to what and where it all should be. “This way please, Daniela.” Emie went inside first then she follows. Taking only a few steps inside that seems like a dark and empty room. The door closes and shuts, at the very same time when the lamps are lit with the trace of a flame spell. Along with the neon green light of an unfamiliar pentagram that she had never seen before. “The Supreme One’s pentagram.” Emie informs her, and once more reading her mind and curiosity from the things that were all new to her, yet only in this last loop a
(DARK BETRYAL) DANIELA’S footsteps echoes. With her expression and silence that suggest the fault, lies and betrayal that she just went through and knew now. Under the shade of the bright full moon above, where a thunderstorm somewhat didn’t happen. She stops right in front of her room. Opens the door and expectedly saw the person that she knew that is waiting for her. “Kyle.” “There you are.” Kyle’s creepy like smile. “I’ve been wondering where you have been, Daniela.” His lies. “And I almost call for some help to look for you in the entire estate.” His fake worry, but not that deep, but definitely dark. His tone and words that doesn’t sync to what it truly means. For it is screaming from the shadows the fact that he wanted to not just stay by the Maiden’s side. But to be her shadow, and owns her secretly from deep within. “I apologize if I worry you Kyle. You see, I just find a need to breath some fresh air from time to time.” “To breath some fres
(RED DOT) “WHEN EVERYTHING COMES IN A CIRCLE AND CYCLE. YOU CANNOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT AND NOT EVEN A LITTLE THING TO ALTER IT, DANIELA.” ‘DID YOU JUST REMEMBER THAT CERTAIN PAST, MARIE?’ “Stop!” Marie screams, holding her head with her hands and now crouching in pain from the flash of images and words that felt like squeezing her brains out from her head. “No, no, no. What are you talking about? I do not understand anything at all.” She’s now talking to the whispering words inside of her mind. Somewhat blinded by the reality around her and currently dwelling on the past that she couldn’t yet comprehend the truth. “Nate. Will you please?” “My pleasure.” Farah requested, which Nate more than gladly comply. Brewing the storm even stronger than before, with the flash of light and rumbling thunder that follows every other moment. Adding fuel to the pain and the flash of memories that Marie needed to remember to open the gate and put every p
(DANGER: DARK) “DARKNESS.” The word that is more than enough for Marie to know and realize everything about the fault that became her weakness. The very reason that her life turns into a burden, but still it is all under HIS plan and written script that they needed to play. “For JK to not get a hold of you. Farah sacrifices her soul and gave me this vessel of hers. To protect you and make sure that you will stay dormant with the false identity and ability that will keep you at bay until you are stable. Which is this time.” “Since that day, you aren’t Farah that I once knew. Right, Haruna.” Haruna smiles at the face of Farah. Proud, but not that deep that now Marie finally understands everything and remembers the past from this last loop. Quickly and less agonizingly. “To make things fall to where they should be, things are needed to be done from the multiple futures that one might choose to have the chain of events. Yet, it will always fall to the part
(DANGER: DARK II) "YOU need to choose and quickly. For me to save my twin and kill that daughter of hell. Alliah!” Taken in surprise and shaken by the name that Nate just drops. Haru’s presence that he conceals all this time and perfectly, after stumbling up the scene that is circling Nate, Marie, and Farah. All inside the spell was just a piece of cake for Haru to break without anyone noticing. He clenches his fist and gritted his teeth. Irritated, disappointed, and somewhat felt betrayed. Not for himself but for the Maiden, after hearing those words and the name that he knew means so much for the shard soul of his mother. “Daughter of hell?” He now wonders. Now pondering that thought that not just took his interest, but the entirety of the things that he is all too oblivious about. Not knowing a single thing and not even scratching the surface of what he should have right now. As long as it involves, Daniela. “Damn! I should have captured and bound t
(THE PERFECT ONE) “THE perfect one.” Nate could only clench his hands into a tight fists. While he couldn’t dare to say a word, nor argue anymore with Haruna. All after what she just said to him and the truth that they are all approaching the end. “We both may be the offspring of the prominent ones in our respective world and book, but only one of us is the perfect one.” Haruna suddenly whispers. Holding back her emotions to draw that certain regret and pain not towards Haru, but all to herself. A fact that Nate is never dumb to not read and recognize, yet he chooses to stay silent regardless of things. “Born with the same fate and identity, but in different gender is considered to be taboo. A fact that the sinner is me and not him. The imperfect offspring that couldn’t even summon that pure black flame that is the mark of both our parent’s abilities. The very reason for my choices and fate from the past loop.” A bit of reminiscing about it all. A part
