Chapter 15 - Movie time!

*a young woman with silver locks was assuming a fighting stance as a young man with tan skin was a couple of meters away, also in a fighting stance

They stood still until the young man dashed forward with inhuman speed. The young woman managed to parry the first attack, but couldn't parry the second

She staggered before the instructor said the match was over*

Nephis watched this with an calm, impassive expression, but on the inside

'Why did they make it like this? Oh, the movie barely started but I already hate it!' she was fuming on the inside

She glanced at Sunny, and to her surprise, he was trying to hold back a laugh

'... How dare he' she moved her hand to poke Sunny in the ribs

He made a silent yelp and glared at Nephis, while Nephis faked an confused expression. Rain and Effie was confused but didn't question, Effie also took a bag of chips to chow down on

A couple of scenes passed by like a blur, so far, Sunny hasn't been seen yet. That was until the Forgotten Shore

*a young man with pale skin, raven-black hair and onyx eyes, he walked out from the cover of coral to greet a young woman with silver locks and grey eyes

She scanned him before nodding and bringing out another young woman with golden locks with a blue ribbon tied around her eyes

They exchanged names quickly before nightfall and they all huddled together for warmth*

"This never happened, I was way too terrified to even do something like this" Sunny grumbled

Nephis side-eyed him before saying

"Yeah, right" she hid a small smile

Sunny stared at her before scoffing dramatically, but couldn't help himself but to smile

*a loud shriek sounded before it fell limp onto the ground with a loud thud. Two people were standing over its corpse with an calm expression

Eventually, the pale young man asked with an easygoing smile

"So, do you want all of the Soul Shards?"

'Nephis' shook her head and carved out the Soul Shard before throwing it to 'Sunny'

"Have all of it, you'll need it more than me"*

Sunny scoffed before saying

"I know it isn't accurate, but I didn't even take any Soul Shards during the journey"

Overall, the movie sucked ass but they continued watching. Rain asked a couple of things, expecially Sunny's "Are you crazy?!" phrases

*loud noises attacked the natural serenity of the dreadful Dark City. A pale young man slowly approached the noises with an cautious expression, one step, two step, three step

The noises stopped suddenly

"I know you're there" a human voice rang out

'Sunny' looked back at 'Nephis' until she nodded and followed him to meet the mysterious person

The turned a corner to see a tall woman with tan skin, she was wearing very revealing clothes*

"Pfft" Sunny swallowed his laugh quickly

Nephis suppressed a smile at Sunny's antics and Effie absolutely appalled expression

"You guys seriously don't think I'm actually like this? Right?" Effie asked

"Oh no, they got you totally accurate" Sunny laughed until Effie grabbed his arm and started to squeeze it

Nephis couldn't suppressed her smile anymore as she replied

"I agree with Sunny"

Effie facial expression turned even more appalled

"You too Princess?!" Effie groaned

A bunch of scenes of explanation that Sunny and Nephis barely gave a fuck about. The scenes lead into the introduction of the Bright Castle

It brought a bit of unwanted emotions about the castle. The scene went on about the separation of Sunny and Nephis, when she decided to stay in the outskirts

*"Stay safe Neph, I'll come back for you" 'Sunny' said with a small smile

'Nephis' nodded and turned around to walk off. 'Cassie' held 'Sunny's' arm as he guided her to the entrance of the Bright Castle*

"I have never said that" Sunny rubbed his eyes

Nephis nodded and continued watching with a small frown at how overly flirtatious they made Sunny

They watched as Nephis managed to get the people of the outskirts to group up. It was nice and inspiring and all, but Sunny could not help but chuckle everytime Nephis said some inspirational speech

"If only they could know that you are one of the most socially awkward person in the world, two worlds actually" Sunny laughed openly

Nephis glared at him, well, she tried, but she couldn't help but smile at Sunny's comment

Effie and Rain's thoughts however

'... How are they not dating?' Rain was just confused, Effie was disappointed beyond words

A week passed, in movie time at least, 'Sunny' and 'Nephis' met up, and with 'Caster'

*"Lady Changing Star! It's nice to finally meet you!" 'Caster' spoke with way too much enthusiasm*

"I do not regret killing him in the slightest" Sunny grinned as he unconsciously put his arm around Nephis neck

Rain turned towards him with wide eyes, but before she could ask, Nephis interrupted

"Sunny killed Caster because he was sent to kill me" Nephis shrugged

Rain opened her mouth, then closed it, to open it again and then closing it for the last time as she finished processing the information

Effie felt something something nudge her leg, when she looked down, it was the chest monster again

She let out a small shriek before the small thing spat out a bunch of chips for Effie. Effie now had love for the tiny abomination

A lot of things happened later, including the hunts and duels. Until 'Sunny' and 'Nephis' had their little fallout

*"Sorry Neph, but I will be gone for a few months" he turned around and walked away

'Nephis' gritted her teeth and opened her mouth to say something, but then closed it and turned around*

"Huh, that was a little bit accurate" Sunny huffed

All of the girls raised their eyebrows in unison. Effie asked first

"I thought you both broke up and that's why you left" Effie innocently asked with a mouthful of chips

Now it was Sunny and Nephis turn to stare at Effie with confusion, anger and embarrassment. Effie laughed awkwardly before scooting away from the both of them

The scenes of the time when Sunny wasn't there went by pretty quickly. Barely any scenes caught Sunny's attention

Then the reunion of Sunny and Nephis was shown on the screen

*a pale skin, raven-black hair and onyx eyes man leaned on a wall, seemingly waiting for someone

Someone walked up to him with a small smile

"Nice to see you here, Sunny" 'Nephis smiled and leaned on the wall next to him

'Sunny' glanced at her with a small smile of his own before nodding

"Nice to see you too"*

Sunny laughed

"It was much more awkward than that"

Effie and Rain was confused until Nephis added to Sunny's words

"You also said, and I quote, 'Why did she have to be here'" Nephis had a neutral expression

Sunny laughed and nodded

"Yup, I did not want to see you at that time"

The scenes went on and on, a bunch of stuff happening, including the one year journey through the coral labyrinth

Then the battle of for the throne of the Bright Castle, a bunch of blood and Sunny telling the girls on how he caved Harus head in, but he toned it down to not worry them

The battles were quite bloody but the survivors of the Forgotten Shores seen worse, other than Sunny of course, he seen much, much worse, well, they covered Rain's eyes to not let her see it

A couple of scenes passed by quickly until the siege of the Crimson Spire. It was quite an magnificent sight, the bloody battles against harrowing creatures while the sky itself was being shot down

Some scenes later, it showed Sunny leading everyone through the Crimson Spire and leading them to the Gateway

Everyone went in and Sunny went up the Crimson Spire

"Oh look, it's the area where I killed Caster" Sunny pointed at the floor below the top floor of the Crimson Spire

The girls nodded and continued watching. Everything else went... Strangely to say the least, and even more strange at the final words of 'Caster'

"I would never say something like that" Sunny scoffed

The scenes passed as the Crimson Spire finally died and the movie ended
