Chapter 8 - The Lady In Black Part 1

After eating for some time I thought of going out to a place maybe I was feeling lonely. I had gone to the auditorium it was quite the big place then I entered this place of solitude, the place where no one was on sight as dust flutter quietly seats of emptiness and no sound or anything but my foot steps was the only sound that echoes.

My eyes have wondered on about the auditorium and the silence was creeping me out for there was no people after all but like a ripple of water sounded there was a distortion in many places as these little things appeared one by one and I flinched.

"Wha?! wh-what's happening?? and what are these creatures?"

They float around counting to ten of them glowing faint like a torch they were like jellyfish swimming through the air and I felt scared for a moment yet I composed myself and wondered what are these creatures? can they talk? can they feel anything? do they hear me? what does it feel to touch them? these thoughts were invading my head as I walked towards one touching the skin and my finger took a sway back from the strange feeling and then touched it back.

"Wow what are these?"

The feeling was warmth when I touched the little thing of a jellyfish measuring to three to four inches. They glowed constantly they seem to have like antenna that flutter these tiny beings were so innocent and somewhat carefree that I was envious of just floating around. All ten of them swarmed and circles around me then flew towards me and I flinched then closed my eyes. I thought I would be in danger yet they were harmless, they were just touching me with their tentacles.

One came in front of my eyes and pulled out a ball reaching it out to me as the rest let me go.

"For Me?"

I tilted my head then I took it. I smell the ball and it was somewhat sweet it feels like it was a candy given to me as a treat. I licked it and it had a sweet taste until I ate it all these creatures circles around me again, are they glad? are they happy that I ate the candy?

"Hmmm it wasn't that bad at all"

Then suddenly my head seems to feel dizzy and my eyes got blurry, my body weakens at the very second and I fell. My head felt a headache in a moment and I raised my body seeing one of the magnificent views on earth.

The birds chirp, the burbling water was heard, the kiss of the wind was was felt by my body, when I opened my eyes, the sight of it all was wonderful unlike any I have seen before. The clear water running through the rocks, the butterflies that dance in the wind and everything was majestic as there were visible fireflies that comes in many colours shining under the shadows of the trees.

"Amazing... it's like seeing a background from a fairy tale"

I see a shining rock under the water and picked it up, as I see the luster and beauty of this rock it was a rock that was blue in colour and the rough feeling through my palms, the slippery texture that somewhat came from the bits of moss, I hid it to my pocket and when I looked forward there was a door. Covered in weeds in front and vines that surround it there was an inkling of strangeness to it.

"Hello there" whispers of a lady to my ear.

I turned back but there was no one there. This eerie sound of a woman was not one of my liking, a voice that had a queer nostagia yet so ominous that it creeps me out. The fear within me dwells suddenly and I alerted myself in vigilance.

"W-who's there?"

"My, my a young omega what are you doing in the realm of dreams?"

The voice echoes again I trembled at the thought of who might this person be or perhaps is this really a person I'm talking to? and what does she mean by realm of dreams? is this a dream? Is this an illusion of the power that an Anticleseus have? I don't have the answer to say for my words cannot describe even to fathom it with my mind. Unexplainable and not descriptive her existence is somewhat a contradiction.

"Tell me who are you?!"

A smell of death that reeks to the nose, a malice of which no one can return to, the mischievous and ever sinful. A horror of strength that can take the lives of the meaningless souls and the pitiful for she was a mountain among mountains. This was the feelings that I can say about her making me more cautious.

"I am no one"

I heard her voice again at the back of my ear and I flinched in reaction, I was scared her in fright that my legs were seemingly tremble as the moment passes.

"You!"

My fear was exchanged by anger in the sudden thought of survival as if my body told me to fight with my own pheromones. I grit my teeth and clenched my fists as the ground beneath shook as I saw a shadow in front of me. The pheromones were changing forms like an arm of two attacking the shadow sitting on the large tree branch. Somehow my own subconsciousness was making these hands out of my pheromones.

"Interesting"

The arms of pheromones goes to her as an assault but were blocked by the sudden negation of a shield as lightning flashes from the two opposites.

"Fine!"

I instinctively covered the area with pheromones in an attempt to subdue but out of my expectations she reacted the opposite.

"Pftt- AHAHAHAHHAHA...pity using pheromones to subdue a god? how stupid" she sternly said as mockery was on her voice along with a hint disappointment "How dare you attack me with those low life strikes! do more damage human!"

My mouth opened from shock as my eyes grew wide. Astonished to her negation of my attack I can't have an answer to this conundrum of an event happening in front of me. I don't know what was happening now because this pheromones creating a handshape was like formed from my own instincts.

"I-"

I held once more my will to fight and to live was filling me even if I struggle there is no other way around to exit this situation.

"I will defeat you!"

Once more a more potent, more destructive attack and more piercing wave. I want to instinctively create a power beyond measure.

"Is that?"

My body started to glow in light a transformation becoming like a maiden. A white veil with the edges of gold, the ornament of a sapphire gem being my necklace, a pair of heels being aquamarine and gold attached to the leggings wrapping my legs in gold and a flat skirt attached to my upper body part of the dress.

I felt a sensation that my humanity exited this form and I also l felt like a different person a person who's possessed by the unknown now I'm someone who has it's body filled with power. A spear of light had shown to my hand and points it to her.

"God Art, Bane of the Crying Banshee"

My lips moves on it's own as if there was already a carved spell in my mind.

Moving the spear vertically with incredible speed in swiftness it cut the place in front of me. The dust clears and the shadow was still there with glaring eyes I stare to it.

"My quite an interesting move, A God Art is it from... hmmm"

As she wanted to continue on talking, my spear still pointed at her.

"Beloved Crescent of Venus"

I didn't know what I was spouting on about like a ghost possessing my very being to the core like a puppet with strings from the puppeteer dancing on his whim but there was a resemblance to our hearts...anger.

Moving the spear I created a Cresent slash towards her direction with swiftness cutting through the trees with ease. Still it wasn't enough for her shield to break.

She flicked her finger as everything turned white, the blackness swallowing everything as it turns white. I flinched wondering what she will do for everything on a whim was destroyed.

"I will only appear once to you and will never appear again"

"What do you mean??"

"Hmmm?"

Glowing orbs came out of nowhere as they bubble like lava, the fear was in me, this creature whatever it was it was a creature that should be denied by men. A creature so monstrous yet had the feeling of divine and extraordinary power.

A power of an extraterrestrial and power of the vast sky passing throught the firmament more beyond the universe for it was an outside force colliding with the reality bending it to it's whim.

"Who art thou?"

I couldn't move like I was immobilized by an unknown force, i was struck by fear then it swirls around with it's gurgling sound until it was front of me. A sudden moment the bubbling and swirling creature had one eye opened. My eyes and it's eyes glanced in one direction, an eye to an eye then it blinks.

"A child of...how... marvelous..."

"Stop Pestering him Son of the Dreaming God"

"Understood"

It disappears quickly and I was set free of the chains of invisibility I moved my palms and I breathed trying to relax. Feeling nervous I gazed upon that shadow again.

"Who are you?!what are you?!"

"I am no one"

A hand showed up from that shadow pointing her hand to my direction, I posed into a fighting stance being vigilant of her actions.

"Fear not I will not do anything to you"

"How can I trust you when you have everything like this place turn into the whiteness of your desire by a flick of your hand?"

Humming out of amusement came from the shadow.

"I am only sharing the future to you"

"How?"

"Do not be alarmed I am here to inform you an info as a form of gift will you listen?"

I couldn't think any answer if I retaliate I would make a death sentence for myself and if I try to escape this shadow might not show interest and trap me here forever then for that sense I can't risk my life here.So in accordance I couldn't fight back but only say yes to that end I pray that I make it out alive.

But if there was no other way then I'll fight by force.

"Fine have it your way"
