Lost of something precious

Dio found himself floating in the air, he seemed to be alone, he couldn't see what color the sky was, or what the place he was looked like, it was as if he was in a blurry box with a man, man with horns on his head.

This man was holding his sister by her neck and was holding what seemed to be a sword sticking out of his wrist against his sister's chest

" Huh? "

Dio would then blink, floating toward the person, he couldn't see their face, he couldn't tell what it was, just like a worm couldn't see the world, Dio couldn't see this man, and once he got close enough, the creature turned to him, it's huge horns pointing at him only to give the boy a devilish smile.

With that smile came a hado that quickly escapes from Dio's mouth once he saw the person stab the sword like object through Asami's chest, piercing her hurt, causing it to explode, her blood flying everywhere, which of course made the boy panic.

His breathing got heavier and heavier, whilst his visión bécame blurry, he was feeling as if he was melting in lava being burnt for not having the capability to protect his sister

" Noooooo!!!!!! "

He yelled, as he quickly sat up, looking around only to find himself in what seemed to be a bed, and next to his was another where his best friend laid at, but he could care less about him right now, he was having a mental breakdown.

The dream, if you could even call it that, felt insanely real, too real, too alive, although he couldn't see the world he could clearly and vividly see his sister getting stabbed, and that scene began to reply in his mind as he began to huff and cover his face in fear.

" this can't be happening, this can't be happening, this can't be happening— "

He went on to repeat those words endlessly, murmuring under his breath whilst covering his face, he sunk his nails into his further, causing it to bleed as the same scene continued to repeat and repeat, like there was someone just placing it in his head.

Soon he'd calm down as his mother and father, along with Ean and Petra entered the room; the group of parents got worried, hearing heavy breathing from outside the room they couldn't help but enter, and only to see Dio panicking.

" Dio what's wrong baby!?! "

Ayami said, quickly rushing toward her son, hugging his head against her chest, rubbing his back in an attempt to comfort him.

This was a rare sight, Dio had never acted like this, he's shown signs of anger but he's never acted afraid, his eyes showed the fear he was experiencing and what he was murmuring made him sound and look insane at the moment.

Suddenly, he stopped, and moved away from his mother, looking over at his father, he seemed to calm down

" I think I've seen the future, or something like that "

Dio said as he stared straight at his father's eyes

" The future? "

Shu questioned, tilting his head for a few seconds, he's never heard of such a thing, he's fought in many difficult battles and has suffered many injuries, as well as seen insane things, but he's never heard of anyone being able to see the future, he's interacted with many creatures across the seven years after the war.

He's encountered creatures who can predict certain things, and even when they come true they don't happen the way they're supposed to

" Like a vision? "

Ean questioned, interested in what the boy had dreamed about, which of course not only included him, but everyone who was in the room

" it's about Asami "

Dio said, looking over at his father with concern in his eyes, as if what he was about to say was something terrible, which of course caused everyone else to be frightened as well

" She dies in the future "

Dio added as Shu's eyes quickly widened and Ezra's words came to mind, the ones he shared with him before leaving the planet

" Is this what he meant when he said I'd lose something precious? "

Shu said to himself, holding his forehead, before leaving the room, panting a bit as Ezra's words continued to echo across his mind

" No, it can't be her that i lose "

Shu whispered, holding his head with both of his hands, trying to picture a scenario like that; how would she even die? He knew war was coming, but how would she die? He told himself that he'd protect the children over anything else, so how come that's the future.

Well it wasn't like his son's words were the deal breaker, but it aligned with what Ezra said to him, war would come and he'd lose something precious.

Ayami was about to exit the room to see what her husband was doing but Shu had walked back inside, staring at his son with a emotionless expression

" How does she die? "

Shu questioned his blue eyes regaining that dark emotionless color, which made the boy nervous a bit

" She's killed.. "

Dio replied, causing Shu to take in a deep breath, not wanting to lose his cool in front of his child, at least not yet

" Did you see what the person looked like? "

Petra questioned, with a soothing voice instead of a demanding tone like how Shu was speaking to him

" No.. "

This made everyone sigh, as they began to think of how she could be killed or by whom

" But, the person had horns sticking out of his head— "

Dio quickly shut his mouth as he saw his father's expression. Shu's eyes were completely wide, with killing intent just spewing out of them, his blue aura began to wrap around his body and his hair began to rise, all of a sudden in a burst of air and speed, he had disappeared.

He reappeared above the now conquered elven kingdom, glaring down at the place that looked completely red, filled with what seemed to be vampires and a bunch of weapons; with anger in his eyes, and the lust for death in his heart, Shu came crashing down against the kingdom, landing right in front of the castle from where the demon's energy was coming from

" Come out! "

Shu yelled.
