The castle was in a festive atmosphere.It was the celebration to liberate themselves from the claws of the emperor, which would be their permanent nation day in the future. Not knowing that Outcats had moved silently under the order of the new emperor’s command.First offered a lavish dinner, saying that she would boost the soldier's morale. Although she didn’t permit any alcohol in the hall, the soldiers were already pretty much drunk with the mood. Their eyes fluttered blankly, drowned inside the blasting songs. “How do you feel, sister?” Second, the firstborn between the two, and the elder brother stood behind the sister. “May I?” He subtly gazed at the empty seat next to her.“Oh please, sit down, brother. We don’t have any formality.”“Only for today?” He drank his watermelon juice within one breath. “One more please.” He raised his empty glass toward the server that served them exclusively.“Only for today.” First affirmed it.“Good, good.” Second nodded his head before his ey
First, the first king of the Shadow Organization and also the criminal played a dangerous game that involved the life of the emperor. Often, she manipulated her dearest sister in the name of love and preached her bare minimum effort of loving the poor sister.And she knew that she did her sister dirty. Too well.Don’t get her wrong, though.She loved her sister so much. However, it was not enough. She was consumed by unbearable fear toward her sister to the point that she took a drastic measures.The fight that happened that night was out of her control. The instigator was Shadow but the cause of them, she’d not gonna sugarcoat it. “I shouldn’t play the game if I know the consequences.” She bit her lips hard. BOOOM!An ignition erupted everywhere. Due to the darkness attribute that camouflaged under the darkness of the night, she couldn’t where she was.She was in complete darkness with nowhere to go. Nothing went her way even when she marched forward. She couldn’t sense anything ye
Eagle looked at the chaos that ensued. So far, things were going as planned. The Outcast was wilding at all the sides of the gates and some had already penetrated inside the castle.Judging by the heavy darkness and the coldness that slowly arose and gripped his bones, Black and Blue seemed to be working together.“What are you thinking about?”Next to Eagle, was Hisoka in his disguised appearance. He had disguised as one of the soldiers of the Kings. And, he had interacted directly with First. To say it bluntly, First was nothing but a power hogger.“Nothing.” Eagle shook his head and look so solemn.“WHO’S THAT?”A group of the patrolled soldiers that came running from somewhere aimed their weapons at both Hisoka and Eagle. “Their eyesights are so bad.” Hisoka groaned.“Or, they didn’t know of your existence.”“Ah, probably.”Despite how tight the situation was, Eagle and Hisoka looked so relaxed.Then, suddenly, the pink petal fell on top of the soldiers like a shower of flowers
“Huh~” Eagle looked around him.The ministers and the soldiers were seen still to be fighting with Outcasts although they were at the losing end. Even though they were on the winning strike, they must win the rebellion quickly. The longer it took, the more pain it would become.Currently, the who were attending the festival was just a few ministers, someone from Wolf, Shepherd, and also a few leaders under the Kingdom. Those people were a powerful group that helped Kings to maintain and administer SO’s businesses and territories. He walked with full confidence. At the same time, he exuded such pressuring aura. Naturally, everyone’s attention became focused on his appearance. Under the moonlight, she looked more like a God of Death and inhuman.The creepy smiley mask, an intimidating knee-length sleeveless hoodie that carved a screaming lion, and a snarling wolf that glittered with gold. Her red irises glowed like a predator eyeing his target. Eagle didn’t necessarily get involved wi
Cawk~A black raven flew toward Eagle and Vampire and called them from a distance. Its black fur illuminated under the lamp of fires, and the shining eyes glazed over them naturally.“Your Holiness!”At the same time, a person who was wearing a hoodie with bear ears attached on top of their head was calling him from afar. “Zombie,” he said.“Sister Biebie!” Vampire waved her hand at the girl that was running at them in a giddy fashion.Both of them stopped their tracks and waited for her.“Oh, you’re there too, Vamp?” Zombie caught up to them in a matter of three seconds, still with his even breath.“What?” Even though Eagle was the shortest amongst them, she still managed to look down at Zombie. His icy voice reflected his inner turmoil. “I’m surprised you managed to find your way toward me.” He said half-cynically.“Ha ha. So funny.” Zombie rolled out her tongue under the mask and unintentionally licked her mask that was still on.“Stupid,” Eagle commented on her stupid behavior.“
First was already anxious about being left alone inside the inner garden that could only be accessed by her and her brother. Her eyes were already busy looking around.Under the medium size tree full of leaves, she was already beyond speechless.She tried to use her power, but none was successful. She tried to light up her surroundings with fire like before, but the darkness was too powerful. It repelled any foreign energy that anyone tried to emit.There’s nothing she could do but wait patiently.However, a sudden rise of the heavy and dusty air filled her lungs. She could taste the heavy and dusty air at the tip of her tongue and look around vigilantly.It was smoke. Unfortunately, she knew whose attribute was this.And, her body recoiled when the taste of smoke became apparent and she could see the smoke gathered a few inches away from her. Larger and bigger.Her instinct told her something. Under the smoke spell cast by the owner, Second was inside it, being captured, unwillingly.
Falcon’s declaration was the memory that haunted First five years down the line in the middle of the night whenever she tried to sleep. She did think of that one moment her whole life because Falcon’s heavy gaze was simply agonizing.The Game that had happened a few weeks ago was like an aggressive volatile dinner party where all blood was spilled and death was constantly knocking at the door.“We are doomed.” First massaged her forehead and grunted.“Yeah, I can see that.” Second flinched as his face ashen.First clicked her tongue. Her brother started to annoy her. “I don’t mean literally. What do you mean– oh.” Her mouth popped with an ‘o’ shape.CLAP! CLAP! CLAP! CLAP!A cynical clapped throughout the area. The sound traveled across the area and echoed as if it was in front of the microphone.“Hey, twins.” Eagle tilted his head, grinning under his mask.First and Second were rendered speechless when he heard that cynical voice greet them. Their desire to manipulate their youngest
“Look at that? You’re so ungrateful. Whose child are you?”“Oh~”“Look down. I am your brother. You ought to listen to me. That’s only fair.”“Ho ho.”“We gave everything to you.”“I did give you something.” Eagle easily answered him with his amusement face.“What did you give us?”“Freedom.”Second shut his mouth for a moment. “Ye- yeah. You did give us freedom.”“The throne too.” He pointed out the obvious this time.“Ye… yeah… you did.” Second face flushed and he stammered. “So tell me… what did you give me in return? That’s only fair.”“Our lo-”“I don’t give a single shit about your love. I am not curious at all. I am not Shadow. What I want is my fair share. Easy right? Give and take, innit?”Second stammered for the second time. “You-you're the fragment of Shadow.”“I am aware of that, thank you. But, I also have my own feelings.”“That… that…” Second couldn’t say more than that.Even if he wanted to protest, he couldn’t. Even if he wanted to deny it, he just couldn’t. Becaus
