Glimpse of Past

"Burn that witches! " people shouted at the two beautiful warriors with only dressed in dirty white dress. Looking pale, with hunger and rage, and fear in their own hazel eyes. The masculine brunette could sense how terrified the girl beside her was, as their hands were tied together in a tree branch.

Laura, the brunette, looked at her beloved with admiration and safety. "It's all right, mi amor. We'll always be close. We're going to die together."

Her eyes tell her that everything was going to be fine and that they would be together until they both died from the fire that ordinary people started.

Roseanne – the name of the beautiful blonde who stared at Laura with worry and fear but still showed admiration for the beautiful brunette – sensed it.

It's been two days, and they're still alive from the torture of hanging their good physique from a high tree. Every five minutes, you die and come back to life. They feel as if they are drowning over and over.

People believe they are members of a family that worshiped to a demon for immortality, but they are not. They are real people, humans, but they have a common ability that leads people to believe they are witches.

However, this is not the case; they are old-age warriors. They protect the poor and even help to put an end to the ridiculous battles between Spartans and Persians. They fought in secret on the battlefield, thankful that no one suspected them and instead they were praised.

But what about after a few years, when everything has changed? People's morals and ways of thinking were tainted by toxic and sinful thoughts, they were taken into custody, and now they want them executed.

The king who's Laura protected in her own life, is a traitor who was part of the plan to lure and capture them by surprise.

"Oh no, Laura. You swear? Will we be together?" She kissed Laura on the lips longingly, giving her entire life to her.

Along with the fire that she saw, the torch that people hold appears to be ready to burn them.

The people stared in awe at the sight of the two girls kissing in the middle of their execution, but soon changed to a disgusted glare. They became enraged and began throwing stones and hurling derogatory and hurtful insults.

"You should go to hell!"

"God will never forgive the both of you, witches! How dare you!"

" Oh greatest god! He will make sure that both of you will die in shame!"

People yelled various vile insults in front of the girls. Laura was the first to lean back and stare at her beloved glowing hazel eyes. She was worried and scared about what would happen to them, but she kept it hidden in front of the blonde so she wouldn't see the girl's tears. She is devastated and powerless in the face of ordinary people whom she used to protect.

She couldn't think of any way to flee when the entire town was heavily guarded and their sword was nowhere to be found. Without it, they are nothing.

There is nothing without it.

The deafening screams jolted Laura awake from her reverie. She could tell it was their time because people began to build a fire to burn them. She examines Roseanne's face and smiles tenderly, "Yes, my love. I will always be available to you. And this whole mess was nothing to me as long as we ended up dead together. In death and even afterlife, we will always love each other. I adore you."

Laura felt her broken heart lighten slightly. She kissed Roseanne's lips and even used their tongue to add fire. They lavishly devoured their own lips and poured it into their soul.

It tasted like salt and sugar, like how both of their emotions were mixed in one place.

It was strange, but also beautiful and blessed.

While the crowd yelled in disgust and rage. The girls didn't mind; instead, they savored the last moments before succumbing to the fire and becoming dust. Because they are weary of the curse that God has bestowed upon them. They are done in everything when the humanity in which they live is full of jealousy and betrayal.

They live in a place where people are becoming more toxic and dangerous to one another. They are immoral and have a bad habit of acting nice and kind at times. However, the inside was infested with rotten flies and worms.

Worse than the scum they've known before.

A scum that is sounds like a trash.

People are like that, changing in every era.

And they thought it was their time to die, but it was not.

Roseanne was placed in an iron coffin and dumped in the middle of the ocean, where Laura could not find her. When she can't see the girl shouting for help because she's blindfolded. She tried to flee but was stopped by a swarm of strong soldiers who beat her to a pulp.

Her beloved screams for help and begs the witnesses to assist them. However, no action was taken by the people.

Laura became so terrified that she yelled, "Roseanne! No! Please don't do this to us! Don't separate us because it will cause me so much heartache."

"Laura!" Please help me! " Roseanne requested assistance. "You said we'd die together. Please fight the guards and join me in my exile."

The people shouted once again.

"Pull them apart! They are just imbeciles living in this unfair world."

"They belong to the demon. Both should kill in the fire!"

"Disgusting females!"

Everything was in disarray as the two lovers screamed and begged for their lives to put an end to this nonsense. However, because the people did not listen, they turned murderer. It also made them feel betrayed. The desire to protect these people is fading, and it is gradually turning into hatred.

Laura could feel her rage;

And was being dragged away and struggling to get away from the guards.

"No!" she yelled. "Please, please! Oh, Roseanne! Please do not attempt this! We guard your people and you, my king. What are you doing to us? You turned your back on the saviour whom God chose to send to you. I was your saviour!"

"Your kind is a horrible sight that I could kill in an instant," the king laughed. "God will never treat us in an unjust manner. He did everything without being treated unfairly. He stated that the world is in balance. As a result, you are a member of the demon family. You are a disgrace in this world where humans have no abilities and can only achieve greatness through our hard work and minds. In any case!"

Laura was so enraged that she gritted her teeth against her lips, causing them to bleed. In one instance, she felt stronger and freed herself from the guards by using her superspeed abilities, which resulted in the beheading of the guard's head.

The king was taken aback and gasped.

She took off the cloth that had been keeping her blind in order to see Roseanne. But her eyes couldn't see a single soul of Roseanne, only the horrifying guards and people staring at her sight that resembled a demon. Laura suffocated in rage, enraged that she could kill this entire people just to find Roseanne. But she was already thrown in the middle of the by now.

And it's turned her into a raging bull right now.

"Where has she gone?! " Laura yelled, enraged, as she began killing the people around her one by one.

When she asked them where the hell Roseanne was, they were so stunned that they couldn't say anything. Instead, a knife slit their throats. She was unstoppable, as her rage took control of her body, and that she had no mercy to show to the people in the town who were begging for their lives to be spared.

She's blinded in rage;

No one could understand her;

Yet people, has the audacity to beg their lives.

Begging that she could spare them; swelling eyes with tears while looking at the raging brunette.

Her eyes was screaming of vengeance;

She's no longer felt the trust and love of this heinous people as she stared at innocent souls and had no mercy in killing them.

People are disgusting and naive;

Like what she saw in the dark corner of this city, full of maggots and worms.

And on that day, all of the people who lived in that city were slaughtered, and the sinful people's heads were beheaded.

It was lost in the mists of time, and her rage went unnoticed.

The future will never know.
