CAMADA'S POINT OF VIEW.
It is a sunny morning.
I can't figure this realm out.
-The source of the sun is unknown-
-Contrary to the ray of light relentlessly bathing my skin, the sky above is rather grey-
I turn to Rave who is lying on the floor unconscious,
He breaths with difficulty and I watch as his chest heaves up and down heavily,
-It's as if, he's going to die at any minute-
Taki comes up from behind me;.
"We've got a few more days left in this place…I pray they're able to survive" She mutters apprehensively.
"Ladies…what do you think about moving to a different location?"
Yal asks as he walks towards us yawning, Taki shrugs;
"Fine…but the issue is how to move along with Rave and Sesugh" she stretches,
"Yeah…that will be an issue" Yal responds in a thoughtful tone.
"Oh…I am going to have a long bath if I make it home…I feel so damn filthy" Taki complains.
"But…we have to find a way to move before we're attacked again by a large amount of monsters, since they're probably marking us right now…" Yal mumbles thoughtfully.
"Well…in that case, shouldn't we get a move on?"
A familiar voice cuts into our conversation,
-Sesugh?-
We turn to see Sesugh sit up with a blank expression upon his face.
- He looks incredibly better-
"I can walk just fine now" he remarks as he struggles to get up, he stands up and staggers, almost falling down, if not for Yal's timeliness in holding him up.
"With some support….I should be good" Sesugh mumbles nervously.
Yal sighs heavily;
"This is hopeless... we're all going to die"7
"Hey Camada…help Sesugh wouldn't you?... Yal will piggyback Rave…and I will keep watch" Taki instructs, cutting into Yal's pessimism.
"Hey…I never agreed to…" Yal protests,
"And why do you get to do nothing?" I ask interrupting.
"I'm going to be doing a lot actually…because I'm obviously stronger than you both…so if we encounter any beasts…my hands have to be free so I can fight it off" she responds with a smug expression plastered on her face.
I shrug and Yal glares at Taki,
Sesugh pats Yal on the back;
"You suggested this yourself pal" he mumbles to Yal pitifully;
Yal grits his teeth;
"Maybe I should have let you die after all"
He snaps back at Sesugh as he struggles to heave Rave up.
Sesugh chuckles as he reluctantly receives the hand that I've let out to support him,
"Well then…just like Yal says... we've gotta move quickly since we're a bit short staffed to fend off any surprise beast attack"
Taki cheerfully intones as she adjusts the frilly white arms of her dress, and begins to skip away.
"Since when did anybody make her the leader?" Yal grumbles as he wheezes under Rave's weight,
We trudge along.
END OF POV.
THE HOODED ONE'S POINT OF VIEW.
I admire the blossoming black flowers in pride.
Width a wave, I levitate the watering can and water the flowers.
"I may not be seeing your face…but I can tell you're quite pleased with yourself"
Zael mutters as he comes to me,
I smile to myself;
"You're right about that...but…why such an early morning visit Zael?",
I turn to see him shrug, he comes to my side and observes the flowers keenly;
"Didn't you plant these just yesterday?... how come they're blossoming already, or don't tell me…you also function as a plant manipulation master"
He asks unbelievably while turning to face me,
I chuckle;
"Nope…I actually just sucked out the age span from other flowers and endowed it upon my flowers"
I say this casually,
-Too casually for Zael's comfort-
He is terrified;
"Could you do that to a human being too?"
He asks his tone quivering;
"Yeah…" I say simply,
He slowly begins to back out ,
I laugh amused at his reactions;
"You Spirit type Dark-cores are truly something huh?" he remarks staring at the flowers ominously.
"Yeah…except…I'm the most special of my type" I undertone, matter-of-factly.
He stares at me and sighs;
"It always seems so convenient to pick a fight with you and prove myself but then reality hits me and I realize that it would be nothing but suicidal"; he is meditative.
He reaches out to touch a petal,
"So allow me to stick around and find out your weakness" he looks up at me,
I shrug;
"I would love nothing more than that"
He tries to peer into my face through my hood, I pat his head and he withdraws.
He blushes in shame and walks away quickly.
I smile and carry on watering the flowers.
THE HOODED ONE'S POV END.
****************************
HYDE'S POINT OF VIEW.
I stare up at the ceiling in boredom and homesickness,
A certain thought crosses my mind;
-Would I have not have been better off dead?- ,
My mind plays around this prospect.
-I wouldn't even have to plead to be killed by that guy; Mic-
I know that I want to live but why do I want to live?
One person comes to my consciousness;
-Long slender fingers positioned upon a keyboard, beautiful emerald green eyes, a pleasant smile;Rise-
I sit up with a new resoleve;
-I've got to stay alive for Rise's sake-
Instead of sitting and awaiting my death like a fool,
-I'll live-
I struggle to break out of these imaginary chains,
It feels so painful.
-It's as if I'm trying to break loose from my very skin-
I feel as though I'm tearing myself apart.
I try to suppress my groans of pain so not to call any attention,
Just as I'm on the brink of getting free, the pain gets nearly unbearable;
-This time, I feel as though all my bones are being shattered athrough-
I revv myself up;
-In a rush of energy, I insistently force through till I am finally away from the binding chains-,
I fall to the floor in exhaustion and crawl to the door, I reach up to the handle,
"Impressive"
A voice startles me, cutting into my rendezvous.
I turn to the window where I see the woman; Faria.
She is sitting upon the window ledge and gazing down at me good-naturedly.
"It's hard to believe that you escaped Bind's chains... not even I can do that...but I guess now I'm certain that you do possess incredible essence"
She chuckles, and drops into the room.
She walks to me;
"You're remarkable aren't you?" she remarks crouching down to grasp my face and stare into my eyes,
I gulp hard;
-Just what is she talking about?-
