Amethyst(2)

"First, I will begin with the things that connect you and me together," Amethyst claimed.

He tapped his finger in the air and a rectangular rose up, "Two parties. You and I, just like I said. To analyze things, we must start with the origin."

His ability to spout ridiculous things and still make sense amazed Reve, someone whose inner thoughts were mostly ninety percent(90%) gibberish.

The rectangular table glowed and holographic figures appeared moving around the table, but not exceeding the border of the table.

They seemed to be waiting for the words of Amethyst to breathe more life into them.

"Me, a god. A real god, unlike those charlatans. It all started at the primal stages of this world. It was empty….null...void...no spark of life could be detected. It was in its growing phase," slowly chided Amethyst.

He began a story that was acted out by the figures on the rectangular table.

They formed a large ball of mass that seemed to be unstable in form. It shook countless times but its foundation was solid enough to keep it safe. That was until…..

"The world reached a phase and expanded. It broke apart and spread wide. A single movement tore down the massive physical mass. I refer to it as the expansion phase. It filled the void of its surroundings and established itself as a growing world. That was when I came into the picture…."

After the large ball broke apart, it formed the larger world that Amethyst spoke of. It periodically circulated, just like a real celestial body would.

All of a sudden, a large light glimmered in the dark expanse. It moved around, scouring the new world like a child starved of water.

"I was interested in what this new world would offer. However…."

After a while of aimless ransacking, the large light was confronted by another large light…..

"I found something else. A being just like me. Originally, I had assumed this was a world formed naturally but it was otherwise. It was a world of someone's creation. I became even more interested in why a being would waste effort creating a world. Of course, to seek answers, I asked it politely but that being didn't understand my positive gesture. It attacked me and I was forced to respond"

The two large lights began to hit each other. Each time, one of them would dim their glow. It was usually the one on the losing end.

After another brief but not brief period of time, only one light was left remaining.

"I won. I didn't kill it though. After bullying the being, I forced it into eternal hibernation and buried it in somewhere comfortable for it. I then took over the world and figured out the answer to my question. It was an experiment….based on a topic that I, my siblings, and even my father, had different opinions about."

The last large light, once again, danced all around the world until it stopped at a large celestial body. A blue core that showed almost as bright as it.

"Evolution. Not just any evolution; limitless evolution. Of course, I didn't need that, but to reach my level, evolution was required. A higher state of being and whatnot...However, this being was trying to find a shortcut to this higher state. Really impressive but of course, it wasn't successful. His approach was still basic."

"I took over his experiment and changed a few defective details. I switched the purpose from evolution to a more stable concept. It created the energy which existed in all of Arcadia, an energy that self-improves the bodies of its inhabitants. This is quite different from the energy of other worlds, but it wasn't that much different. Instead, its uniqueness laid with a term I call conditional evolution, which is just as named. Don't worry about it, only a few can meet the requirements for it. Oh….."

Amethyst realized that he was trailing away from the main topic and instantly switched back, "That's me, the first party. Then onto you…...Reve, a rare cat from the brotherly planet of Arcadia. By coming in contact with what Earthlings call Devil Triangle, I manipulated the teleportation circle and moved you over before you could die--"

He was cut off by a soft voice from Reve, "Is she dead?"

"The human girl that was with you? Yes, she's dead. There was no way she could survive. You only survived due to me protecting you," replied Amethyst.

"She's dead…," silently muttered Reve.

He gazed at Reve sadly, "Why didn't you save her too?" 

"She was of no relevance to me," replied Amethyst.

He expanded, "You were what I needed."

Amethyst still maintained the same level of purity he had a while ago. He had no idea of the implication of his words.

However, from a third party's perspective, Amethyst wasn't responsible for the human girl.

Reve also understood that, which was why he didn't lash out. Yet, he buried his head in his body and trembled occasionally.

He had known she was dead but finally confirming it was still a bit hard to swallow.

After a while, he brought up his face to stare at Amethyst, "Can something be done--Is there still hope?"

Amethyst lightly smiled back and said two words that sparked a plug in Reve's mind, "There is."

"There is what?" Reve trembled.

He wasn't going to raise his hopes for naught.

"There is hope," Amethyst spelled out patiently.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

"What is it?"

Amethyst ignored the fervent eyes of Reve and spoke out, "It will only be revealed when you fulfill your purpose, a purpose which you will come to understand in a moment's time."

He took Reve's silence as a sign of compliance and continued his so-called orientation, "After you were transported, I observed you to check if you would make a done candidate. You did, excellently well at that, I would say. Hence, I stamped a permanent seal on your candidate status."

He motioned his figures to continue presenting and asked a rhetorical question, "Now what does the candidate title entail?"
