(SELFLESS) “I heed your words, as this game had officially started. God.” The deal that Haru took, the game that he is willing to play, and more than that. All for the sake of his world and the people that he loves. To have that ability and undo everything of the destruction and tragedy of his world. “Very well, I’ll be watching you, Haru.” HE giggles in excitement and then draws that signature cunning smile of his. As HE snaps HIS finger and presented HIS gate with his marks and symbol of HIS supreme pentagram. With the door slowly opening, Haru steps and enters back walking away from the palace with the deal at hand. “I promise to make everything the way that I wanted it all to be.” The door close, as HIS giggling voice echoes, but for a while. Hearing Haru’s promise and conviction, HE couldn’t help but be so much thrilled for everything that is to come. And it is all according to HIS precious plan. “Aren’t you enjoying this all too much?”
(PAIN AND MEMORIES) “ENOUGH!” Haru as Kevin in this world and book hold his tears. As he stands quietly and hidden in a distance, but near. “Tsk!” He smirks as the pain and longing are eating him and so much that it is insanely unbearable for him. Yet he needed to stay on his ground. “So, this is my punishment.” He remembers the Supreme One's words. The punishment that he ought to experience in this world is one of the simple exchanges for the deal that he took. “The punishment that I need to take and endure.” He then scoffs, crumpling his fist and tight while looking at the prominent two that are the same with the shared heart and soul of the people that he cared about so much from his former and original world. “Damn! I knew that I will be having this punishment, yet I still jumps and quickly into this place just to see the two of them.” As his longing eyes and the tone of his voice that only wanted the warmth of his family marks
(MYSTERIES WITHOUT ONE)“TODAY is the Shrine Priestess's special day, her birth, and the auspicious date of this country’s abundant harvest. It is Daniela’s birthday.”The name that rings the longing inside Haru’s mind. Yet, he didn’t show it to his face nor, he intends to in front of the white witch that brought him into this kind of favor and game. “Where can I see her?”The shard of his father’s existence. The reflection of the original him, but this world and book are tiny parts. The voice, the smile, and the presence that Haru also longs to be with. But the deal and the game that the signs are screaming at him that it is impossible for the time being. “I want to see her.”Arthur, the young one boldly asks. Demanding for it and not even the slight of request to his tone. As everything at this moment will lead him to the path where he wanted to be. “What do you think?”Farah suddenly asks, not because she is curious about what’s inside Haru’s mind, but rather because she is teas
(A LIGHT AND DARK MEETING) “WHEN there is light, there is always the darkness.” Farah whispers while looking at Haru that’s all along is only putting all his attention towards Arthur. With the words and thoughts of longing and his deep desire to interfere that’s running inside his mind. Which is impossible. “You will meet him soon. As the both of you will be seeing the past that will put the context that you believe in into good and bad. With the desire to interfere, but couldn’t.” She remembers Emies’s words. Words that is taunting inside her mind with the fact that everything from it is coming true right now. Exactly the same that is knocking a sympathy to Farah, knowing how heavy is Haru’s feeling right now. “The desire to be known by someone that you are forbidden to. The person that is just an inch away from you, yet is still to far to be with. Such an ironic thing that we need to suffer.” Farah’s sentiment not just for Haru, but also towards her. Fo
(DEEPER THAN LIGHT) “ARTHUR! My name’s Arthur, and you are?” “Daniela.” The meeting that was too fleeting for the both of them. Where Haruna inside the life, and façade as Farah is holding herself more than ever to lose her way for a moment. Knowing that Haru is almost in the brim of his self-awareness. "Hold tight and do not loose your way. Remember that we are in the past, and no one of us could change a thing even lightly for that, Haru.” She reminded Haru once more, that’s currently holding himself more that she could think of him. With a tight fist and a gritting tooth, he is calm and compose, trying to be with his words as a reply to her. “Tsk! You do not need to remind me of that.” They are both staying strong, but for how long? That’s the question that Farah wanted the answer about. For she didn’t expect to be in this kind of predicament when she is tasked to take care of her alternate soul and being from the other book and world. “Let’
(BEYOND THE LIGHT) “WITH the last breath of life that a mortal give, can someone say that his soul will be in either heaven of hell?” The Mistress of time suddenly asks, randomly, but HE knew what she is trying to say to him. A typical question that came from her, but a puzzling one to be considered and deeply about. “Heaven of hell? Is there such thing as that? Perhaps what you mean is neither of those two.” HE giggles, answering the Mistress of time’s question while the two of them are comfortably sitting into their respective thrones and watching everything unfold right before their eyes. All to the assignment and the kind of torture that HE wanted for Haru to have. “Well one more thing.” The Mistress of time added. “Do you perhaps written in your plan that at least one of your pieces should die?” The kind of question that HE felt like to outdated to even asks from him. Yet, for the sake of the Mistress of time herself, HE replies with a sly smile in t
(RED) DRIP! DRIP! DRIP! The sound of the blood that is flowing unto the floor, from the hang body of a lifeless man that throat is been cut. Letting the scarlet blood freely flow like he is about to be butcher and to be sold in the market. “Just one more thing left to do.” A menacing laugh echoes across the close room. A kind of laugh that resembles of a kid, yet is also from a teen age girl and even a woman. A mix tone and laughter that is disturbing and taunting. “Just one more and everything will fall to where they all should be.” Cold, unknown, and no one around. The room that is decorated with the lifeless corpse of human’s are hanging all around. With the floor that is dried up with blood and once more coated with a fresh one. The foul smell of rooting flesh is a torture like hell. “I will make everything turn back where they all belong.” With those words that echoes in a different way and sound that travels through and through. The unknow
(YELLOW)YELLOW, yellow! Sweet like corn, but warm like the sun. You gave the flowers color, and the hue that everyone thinks that lightning has. Yet, what can someone do with the typical color, especially when the requirement is someone’s life?“ENOUGH!”Daniela’s command and screaming. Wherein everyone stops and immediately drops their mana and concealed their guardian gods back to their gates. With Kyle and Arthur that was in the brim of a fight, the Shrine Maiden walks in between the two of them with her disappointed eyes that the two is ashamed for what happened.“I do not want to see anyone fighting with some trivial things that isn’t worth it.”The Shirne Maiden directed it to Kyle, which in response draws back his sword and a few steps away backing out. Heeding the Maiden’s command without any question.“Especially I do not want someone who will try and hurt the person that I’ve known and cared for years.”A punch in the gut that Arthur eases. As he calms his nerve and remind
(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
