All my life, I have burdened everyone.
I have always been loyal to everyone, no matter how badly they treated me. All I wanted was acceptance.
I worked myself to the bone to become stronger than the people who looked down on me.
I told myself at that moment. "I will be no one's throw rug ever again". As I got older, I finally got the acceptance of the people I always desired. At that moment, I wanted that to last forever. But I know everything doesn't last forever. Everything in this world lives and dies. That is the world. Those are the fundamentals.
On the way out of work, I felt someone was watching me.
I turned around and a few people of the faith attacked me.
I beat up the ones who attack me. I didn't know there was one hiding.
They threw a needle at my neck.
On that moonlit, I woke up on an altar in the Eos Holy Church.
I already told you I declined your request! I yelled. We need your power to do this. Ramiel replied. So you kidnapped me when I am going to my car?! I yelled. Your power is essential. You can not refuse us or the ritual. Ramiel replied. You have some nerve! I yelled.
I thought of using magic to break the chains.
You can try to escape all you want, but those restraints will keep you from escaping. Joel replied.
I will make you all pay for what you have done to me! I yelled. So this is the girl you are "asking" to help? It looks more like you are sacrificing her. Ismene replied. It's you, Ismene? I asked. Why are you really here, Ismene? Yona asked. Mom, this isn't a holy ritual. My father told me about this practice. The church sees people like Kaoru and me are as the enemy. I came to stop this today. Ismene replied.
The guards of the church come towards Ismene.
Are you really going to attack me? Ismene asked.
Ismene, why are you here? I asked. They sent here me to see what this holy "ritual" is really is. Ismene replied. Did you come to rescue me? I asked.
Aoi snuck in from the woods behind the church.
He saw me on that altar.
I have to get her out of here. Aoi thought.
Why was I born just to just forfeit my life? I cried.
Cover your ears Kaoru! Ismene yelled.
Ismene unsheathed her swords and sheathed it. The sound caused the officers to be faint.
One soldier got up, grabbing his face and pointing his sword at Ismene's back.
How dare you ruin our ritual, Ismene! Noé yelled. Save it Noé for someone who cares. Ismene replied.
Ismene turned around and jumped back. She pointed her naginata at Noé.
Do you two know each other? I asked. Yes, we do. Ismene replied. Noé turned around and Ismene dropped her weapon.
Aoi watched the fight begin.
She kicked Noe in the stomach, sending him through the stainless glass. Ismene, you are destroying the church! Yona yelled. Sorry mom, but I need you to see the dark truth of what this "religion" you so believe in. Ismene replied. Noé stands up. Aoi now! Ismene yelled.
Bind him! Noé yelled.
Aoi rushed in towards the altar. The guards bound Aoi down with holy magic. They forced him to watch everything to play out.
The ritual began.
The moon beamed on me.
I screamed and cried. I turned over and bellowed.
I HOPE YOU ALL BURN IN HELL! I yelled. Soon after I cried and vomiting blood. I felt like my body was burning up all over. I even cried more. An explosion happened soon after.
The power that was extracted from my body was my imperial treasure, Lix Tetrax.
Why am I on the outside? Lix Tetrax asked.
He grabbed me and shook me senseless as he usually would.
Kaoru, you dumb b•••h you are not dying on me! Lix Tetrax yelled. You will not die on my Kaoru! He cried. I opened my eyes through the ritual. The ritual is finished. Noé replied. Ismene pushed Noé out of the way.
Kaoru! Aoi and Ismene yelled. She cried.
The portal appeared.
I was too late to stop this tragedy that transpired tonight. Sérphain replied.
Can't you bring her back to life? Ismene asked. No, I can't Ismene. Only one who has the jurisdiction over the dead in this case is Lady Tempus. Sérphain replied. He hugged Ismene as she cried over me. I'm sorry you lost your friend, Ismene. Sérphain replied.
Aoi grabbed me off the altar.
He cried over my body.
At the moment, I knew my life was a fleeting one, but I knew I had family and friends who love me. A guy that accepted me for me. I feel bad I am leaving all this. I thought.
I cried and beg for life back.
A woman appeared.
I will give you a "choice".
Stay Tuned.
This is the end of Part 1 of Book Three.
