The Dying World

Once I was done with Larry and the others, I knew I needed a breather, so I teleported myself to an isolated area in the far north—away from any sense of familiarity, and devoid of life.

I just wanted some time to think.

Floating in the air as I stared at the star-filled sky which was brimming in contrast to the vast darkness all around, I smiled to myself.

This world was truly beautiful.

"So this is where you were…" A voice broke me out of my thoughts, though I could already sense the presence of the owner before she spoke.

Hearing her words made my smile broaden even more.

"Stop saying that as if you didn't know that already." Glancing behind me, I saw Karlia floating as well.

She had her arms folded and a smile on her face. Her violet eyes locked onto mine, and as she drew closer, I could feel my heart racing.

"Fair enough." She retorted, still drawing closer.
