(THE MONSTER INSIDE)
“I MIGHT HAVE CREATED A DEVIL IN DISGUISE.”
Whispering the same words, she said the night that she witnesses the horror and the face of the devil that took the most important person in her life away. By which in this time and the worst of all is the one that she is serving, where she cannot do anything, but act accordingly as his servant. She remembers the young lady’s words, like the smile of the little royal, yet the most powerful holder rings back unto her mind.
“Read this one, follow every instruction that is written. Consult the water holder for a thing and perform it wisely and cautiously, as you need to find and open His gate. Take your best price to offer as He will love a soul in exchange for a wish to be granted. Be smart, think twice, as you only have one chance. Emie.”
(THE BOOK) “CREATED not to mock the God HIMSELF, but His way into fulfilling His desire. With the sins and the very originals that are trapped and locked unto their cells into this world. Just how can you blame someone who only wanted to revive the only being who made Him be?” Educating, yet more like telling the old told tale of the worlds into the seemingly innocent daughter of the royal crowns. Reina who never got interested in anyone and isolated herself into the four corners of her palace chamber is having the time of her life acting as the storyteller towards the young princess everyone adores and calls. “Am I right, Princess Winona?” Looking at her in neither fascination nor wonder, but more likely a teacher with the shard of ‘his’ who knows more than anyone in this world. Sh
(THE FINAL DECK) “JUST LIKE WHAT YOU SAW, EVERYTHING SHOULD BE PLACED TO WHERE THEY ARE, EMIE.” Surprise for the start, yet drilling into the facts and the horror that their world is circling into. Emie’s face lighten as she needed to expect what is unexpected in this very case and book, most especially when the prominent holder enters the void. “Well then, shall we continue the introduction of the ‘Tarot Cards’?” Bowing in courtesy as she is facing the royals of their world where the other one is the holder of flame and the most powerful one of all. She got a glimpse of the card that the little princess is holding. To the image of a castle where lightning struck and the aftermath is dr
(SIGNS) “WITHthe card in your hand and the person destined to keep it and lost it in the last loop. We would like you to meet someone, Emie.” With the ticking of the clock that starts to get louder and louder with each passing moment, yet just a façade in the void where time never existed as dimensions and worlds are the only eminent ones. Everything turns back into the place where she is original, with the throne room where HE is sitting along with the mistress of time, the prominent holder of flame, and the once doll. She holds the deck of cards close into her hands as the image and number of the beginning are at the very top. Just then, HE snaps HIS finger as a pentagram is drawn unto the floor and the distinct scarlet light illuminated, as a door is presented. With the symbols and marking that drawn into the world
(MANIPULATIVE GAMES) “MAYI have this dance?” Reaching his hand as he gently and royally asks the question towards the little princess everyone adores and loves as the daughter, but the adopted one of the royal crowns. Her innocence and façade were where he sees and reads through, and knew more than what anyone expected of him about, yet not her. Draws a smile unto her face, as she may be a fragile five years old princess on the outside, but is a smart and cunning one who once is a doll and is made by the flesh and darkness of him, as she then gladly replies. “I am honored too.” Reaching her hand to hold his, as his smile reflected the genuine one can be, where she let everyone sees and knew about him. Yet she kne
(HIS SANITY) “SANITY?” Asking the question with a word mixed with a taunting wonder and a hellish giggle from him. Kyle only thinks of that particular word as a child’s play, and nothing, but an ordinary word that does not mean a thing or has a weight in it, but a casual word that everyone should just throw away and left forgotten off. “Do I have to think about that?” With a twisted expression and a sinister smile drawn to his face, he comes face to face to the mysterious holder that he just saw and intended to meet at this very moment. The throne room of the palace within the void and dimension of the original HIM draws an eerie stance, as the flame holder with the guardian, God Leo is on guard towards him, wherein she smiles, amuses, and entertain by his twisted personality, as the ques
(THE PROMINENT BOOK) “I AM LOYAL, BUT NOT FAITHFUL, I AM INNOCENT, YET TOO GOOD FOR MY WITS. I MAY LOOK NOBLE AND GENTLE, BUT I AM BEYOND TWISTED. IN THIS WORLD WHERE I DO NOT ORIGINALLY BELONG, I CALL FOR NO ONE, BUT HER. I WANTED NOTHING, BUT HER VERY WORLD, AS I DESIRE FOR HER HEART UNLIKE ANYONE ELSE. I’LL GLADLY PLAY ANY GAME AND TOOK ANY DEAL AS LONG AS I WILL HAVE HER. SO, CAN I SIGN A DEAL?” Smiling contently as he is sitting unto a chair facing the bright full moon from his room, as the time passes, yet not long ago after the deal is taken and ended. He whispers the words. “Death Reincarnate.” Reading the title of the book that he got from her and the reality and future that this very world lies with. Reina’s voice echoes inside his mind as a
(BEAUTIFUL NIGHTMARE) TICK TOCK, TICK TOCK. The sound of the clock echoes all through the hallway and unto the very corners of each wall of the palace of the Royal. Away from the light and sound of the ball, and alone in the room that is meant for a royal and a holder. Kyle listens to the eerie sound of the surrounding, wherein the beating of the second clock is the only prominent sound, as he finds himself alone in that dimly lighted room the moment, he took the deal that starts from him snapping out of his sanity and into insanity, where it rings. “I am loyal, but not faithful, I am innocent, yet too good for my wits. I may look noble and gentle, but I am beyond twisted. In this world where I do not originally belong, I call for no one, but her. I wanted nothing, but her very world, as I desire for her heart unlike anyone else
(DEATH’S WISH) “I CAN’T WAIT TO DIE IN THIS LOOP.” Somewhat cursing himself, yet in reality, is wishing for a dream to come forth fast and true. The words from the book started to fade, as the chapter where his life is written is taken out from the light of his eyes. Wherein the very words and somewhat the rule Reina gave him, rings to be like a verse, but the world’s very warning. “You can take it. You can read it as you can enjoy every bit of the future that will be about to happen. But not everything will the book reveal and will let you have to read. Every piece of favor and wish comes in a heavy price and consequences. Most especially if you are dealing with time and space itself. The past, present, and future, the time that should never meet as their existence is somewhat like a taboo of some
(BUTTERFLIES)“THE butterflies have been sent. Everyone should have received it by now, right, Chie?”HE asks in a bit of a threatening tone. Sitting perfectly to his throne and tapping the helm of his chair with his right pointer finger. With a drawn sinister smile and the Mistress of Time standing beside him, the meeting place are all set and perfectly placed with the chairs that resembles the chess board.“Just as you wish for it.”The Mistress smile that is equally threatening and hiding something that she prefers to keep like a souvenir. With the grand clock ticking and finally to its very last seconds. A bit of a change from the past are corrected. Now presenting it in the way that is better than before and too perfect to be told to be a fault.Then.“Here I thought that you wouldn’t came.”“Tsk! I’ve been thinking about it and I realize that I couldn’t miss this for the world and books.”An echoing footstep sounded. With the smile and the sinister one that they both knew and re
(BOOKS)“STOP!”The protest and utter denial of Alliah for the truth that is presented right in front of her. The words and the said facts shake her entire world and currently put her into the deepest darkest corner that she has ever been in her entire life. “No, it can’t be. I am not her. I am me. I am!”She screams in frustration, and wide eyes, and expresses the kind of fear that is a mix of horror and surprise. All for the reality and the truth that she doesn’t want to believe, she thinks that she didn’t deserve it, and all along is an utter lie. “Open your eyes and face the truth. You are not who you think you are, Alliah.”“No, no, no. It can’t be.”Tears fall inconsolably from her eyes. Her body trembles with fear, and the knocking words and reality that she couldn’t escape from somewhat pulled her deeper into that demise. She wanted to escape, she wanted to run away and think that this is all nothing, but a nightmare.“That’s right! This is all but a nightmare, everything of
(ROSES)“YOU do not need to say anything anymore Pauleen. I understand and know my sin from the past that ruined our relationship. I should have accepted the fact that he chooses you, so, for this life and this final loop. I promise to stay by your side.”“Jade!”Overwhelmed with joy and relief that Pauleen felt. She hugs her sister tight, after reminiscing and the very first loop where their relationship breaks and crumbles into ruins. Didn’t go through any bumps and cracks, nor Jade felt the excruciating pain of remembering the past loops. Christopher is true to his words when everything on the side of the sisters is done and in peace. Or is it?”“I see that you came with Gen.”“I guess, from now on things will change between us?”“A bit, for right now we are a family and to think about it, I am your aunt.”A little teasing, and giggling about the present and the future that they will be facing. A light atmosphere that Pauleen couldn’t help but be more than glad of receiving. Now th
(VIENNA BLOOD)“I have the hunch, but I didn’t expect to see you here, Honey.”“So, do I, Gen.”Their bland, but casual greeting. They’re not so usual encounters, but both know who they are in this world and what role they are playing. Honey recognizes Gen and not in the way that always starts with a fight. Gen immediately knew that it already came to Honey’s ears that her little game of guarding and spying over JK had ended. “Then I guess you being here and without any ominous aura and a façade like one, means that JK already knew about you and everything that you have done since the very beginning.”“Well, I am not his guide in the first place, nor he is one of the original holders in this book and world. I am only attracted to him because he had the essence of my birth father. Besides, it is my task to be spied and pretend that I am loyal to him with my utter disgusting desire. But right now that almost everything is set, I came here to ask for that thing, Honey.”“I see.”Couldn’
(CHALK NIGHTMARE)“DEATH, DIE, THE DEAD.”An eerie song is echoing all around the place and under the bright full moon. The melody of the song will bring chills down anyone’s spine. Making all the gentle animals around hide in fear, while the owl coos and the ravens are screaming. In that not-so-dead night, Gennivier is singing the song while marking the points and the necessary corners in the middle of the biggest pentagram and where they are about to open the gate and fulfill the end most perfectly. “Are you done, Gen?”“Please. I know that you miss me and all, but just wait for a moment for I am almost done, my dear sister, Pauleen.”She still addresses the original holder of God Aries, of this world and book in the same way as she used to do. Looking at her with those envious eyes, and an untrusting heart that she is still working on correcting. The reality will always stay the same, for even though she is one of the directions that HE is a bit proud to be HIS puppet. She still h
(A SMALL LIGHT)“TSK! Do not make me laugh, Bianca.”“Tsk!”Still he is being stubborn, protecting and not accepting anything from what he just saw even though it was the damn real thing and his inner consciousness is screaming at him to believe. Bianca couldn’t help but be in dismay. Angered and wanted to curse Aaron deeper and worse to the core. But she is still thinking of the civil way to do things. Calming her nerves and composing herself. Looks back at him and tries again for the third time.“Just what is it that you do not want to understand Aaron? You who is one of the holders that should and will always protect the Shrine Maiden shouldn’t be stubborn like this. No matter how hard you try to convince yourself because you are blinded by love. The Alliah that you know is only the half, the yang of her whole who also had its own dark past, while the yin had the biggest tragedy that was used and played by the Supreme One and becomes, Beatrice.”“Beatrice? Damn! Now it is Beatrice?
(A DUEL IN THE MIST OF INSANITY)SILENCE is eminent, that even the wind is somehow frightened in some way to blow its presence. The night is too quiet and not a single insect an be seen or to be heard. Everyone seems hiding for something, with everything is like in a mid of chaos. In that small garden in the residence of the Gomez, footsteps suddenly echo. It’s sound that is menacing and screaming a dark warning that no one even the smallest living thing will dare to see, face and make a sound in front of it.Arthur looks back, drawing a confident and a bit of a mocking smile and welcomes his guess.“So, you decided to come and face me after all, Kyle.”“And I can see that you are waiting for my arrival, Arthur.”The challenge that they both know that they wanted and at the same time not. The unnecessary but necessary thing to do, and a contradiction that they both know that is stupid, yet it is the only way to prove their strengths and wits to one another.“You do know that there is
(LABYRINTHAL CORRIDOR)“THE destruction for this loop and this sixth is about to begin.”Words that she didn’t want to hear. The fact that she needed to face and swallow up and whole for it is the reality and the written plot that was the plan all along and from the very beginning that they wouldn’t, couldn’t, and will never escape from. “Everything is settled on your parts, am I right, JK, Kyle?”“Tsk! It’s long been done.”“Everything is set on my part.”The confirmation and the exchange of assurance and confidence that JK and Kyle expresses. Amuses, no, giving the hell lot of confidence towards Him. But without knowing what had happened in between the loop of six, the secrets and the deals that took place are one hell of an exciting roller coaster ride that Kyle made and secretly had. All for his benefit and nothing more but for him. “Kyle.”“Just like what I have said, it’s long been done. I did my part perfectly according to our deal. I set everything up without any flaws and r
(THE QUEEN SHALL BE SAVED)“BE prepared, for what you are about to see will shatter you to pieces, Aaron.”Damn, that was cruel and dark. Deeper and more menacing than Aaron had experienced and had known so far. He holds his breath for a few seconds, then coughs multiple times while covering his mouth and somehow chocking about something that Bianca knew that it is all due to what he had seen so far. “Had enough? Did you understand what I am trying to say and make you, Aaron?’“Enough? Are those for real?”The in denial that is screaming inside his mind and for who he is in totality. More than being stubborn about the truth and the facts that were just presented to him, Aaron still believes that the Alliah that he met back then is not the one Bianca just showed her. “I didn’t expect that you will be this foolish because of love big brother Aaron. You above all people that I know who had the greatest sense of justice and smart enough to know what is right from wrong.”“Then, you didn
