The night air was humid as the hot blue flames mixed together with cool air of the darkness, flames that burned the fractured ground and yet never touched the already destroyed buildings, in the middle of this burning blue world stood three individuals, the only three people left alive.

Julie looked at Tora with tears in her eyes as a unwelcome truth had made itself known to her. "Was all of this my fault? She asked as she glimpsed down at the bloody remains of people she didn't even know, the severed limbs of strangers, recked building, broken windows. "Was all of this really my fault."

"I wish that I can tell you something different." Tora said looking away from Julie. "But I'm afraid I can't."
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGz0HT7X2v5
Julie shook her head in disbelief "No..."
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKcvJ6lWNl
"I'll explain everything to you later, right now I have a job to do." Tora brought his burning fist up towards his face as his eyes glowed with determination.

"Can't you hear it?" Trevor playfully said as he brought his hands up to his ears. "The sound of sirens." Trevor began to giggle and soon laugh out laugh. "It would appear that our fight is about to be interrupted." He said with a laugh.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzDSOgj6l4
"So I guess that I am going to have to kill you fast!" Tora said with a stronger determination.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2A9IKKAZvP
"Now, now, now let's not be to hasty." Trevor shook his finger as white glistening wings appeared from his back.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfCmwKRIU7
Tora rushed forward, his body becoming a blur as he moved inhumanly fast. "Your not getting away!"
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbPgF8oPk6
Trevor seemed to disappear as he flew high into the sky just barely avoiding Toras attack. He giggled as he looked down at them both.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojNJOK1byL
"This fight is far from over, understand that now!" Trevor said flying higher and higher into the night sky. "We will meet again and next time I will gouge out your eyes and eat them as a snack!"
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY30SIeEaZB
Trevor soon disappeared from view and yet still Julie looked up into the night sky.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dxMYxguBh
"We should go." Tora said grabbing her hand breaking her out of her strange thoughts that plagued her mind.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRT9DUJDXv9
He pulled Julie forward and they both ran down the burning streets filled with the dead.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwnJKsR0JA
"What is happening?" Julie asked. "What happened to Trevor, how is all of this my fault?"
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEsRwGy4nh
Tora looked back at Julie as they both continued to run. "I'll tell you... I'll tell you everything."

"We should be safe here." Tora said looking around the surrounding area.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuw7JOCsgF
"Where the hell are we?" Julie asked breathing hard.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpy3MoyVWY4
"At some park, it's the perfect place to talk, don't you think?" Tora pointed towards a wooden bench standing by the side of the stone path that led further into the park.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvn1qiIpp0
Tora and Julie sat side by side not saying a word. Julie wanted to go after Trevor, but right now she needed answers.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ikI7cnndA
"What are you?" Julie asked looking towards the white haired boy who sat beside her.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfeRiMfhca
"That's not an easy question to answer." Tora said while scratching his white hair.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsuysy5gDF
"Well then let me make it easy for you!" Julie yelled standing up exasperated. "The last time we met you talked about Fairy's. You could see the same things that I could..." Julie didn't want to say any more, the very words felt like acid as they left her mouth. "Does all of this have something to do with all of that nonsense?" She said, rising to her full height, her determination evident in every line of her posture. "Don't lie to me and tell me..." She said her lips trembling
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLGbztjXS9
Tora looked into eyes filled with tears and felt something from deep within that had completely rattled him, something he had never felt before.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDj74dahNN
"Was all of this really my fault?" Julie asked, her body trembling with a mix of fear and anticipation, her fists clenched tightly at her sides.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2wkoSMcD7
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSefzRNd81
Tora averted his eyes, he couldn't look at the girl who seemed to make him weak with just a glance.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBc87P2ioE
"To say that it is your fault isn't far from the truth if you look at the situation from a small perspective. But from a bigger perspective that's not the case." He said letting lose a small breath of annoyance.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfcAoGY34E
"What does that even mean!?" Julie cried out.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfMZJ5kqq8
"It means that this world is a lot wider than most people give it credit for." Tora explained.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolI8qpfwCy
She had heard an answer that she did not wish to here. "What?." Julie asked feeling more irritated.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9e3ebWdXG
"It means that the things you call nonsense, the things you don't even think exist are real Julie."
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnr9EPhv50
"So you know my name huh? How?" Julie asked, distrust ever present in her voice.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQxdDh5x0D
Tora stands up and faces Julie, grinning Cockily. "Well I did over hear that monstrous guy say it many times, but I would be lying if I didn't tell you that I have been researching you ever since our first meeting."
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33HCQp7QGQ
Julie took a step back. "What why!?" She asked.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXUhCQTnJw
Tora didn't say any words for deep down he felt a certain measure of guilt for what he was just about to say. "I needed to be sure that you where one of us."
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJ4yLCMeI2
"One of us, What do you mean? Julie asked quietly, remembering the events that had just taken place.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXFIEbCbco
"It's going to be a long story... but please Listen to it fully and quickly." Tora sat down again on the bench. "The hunt is still not over."
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhehQ4U956N
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fBjn9ICox
Toras eyes grew dark and serious. "Let me tell you about the world of darkness and light, and the world in between.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfBr6XSX12
Tora's smirk widened as he gazed at Julie, his piercing blue eyes seeming to illuminate the darkness around them.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XrtNbMnRQ
"The world of three," he whispered, his voice carrying a hint of mystery. "Our world."
