Gothica:
I'm sure my lord already knows all this but it better be reported. He might have insight into one soul but I'm not sure how much is that.
Better to take the necessary measurements from now... unless he already took all of this in his calculations.
I thought to myself as flying off the forest... I didn't really consider the state I left Adonai in but I know he'll live and that his friends will find him, after all I'll tip them off myself, without giving what went down here.
This was short but an overall valuable experience for him, being able to call out to your Soul-Shaped weapon is a great deal.
...
"But where do you think you're going? You're really thinking I'm going to let you take advantage of this situation?" I said looking at a figure that tried to fly unnoticed above me.
Unfortunately for him my senses are the best out of all vampires in existence... and what I smell right now is rotten flesh, depravation and a masquerade of principles.
"Ezekiel... I advise you to live and never get close to Adonai." I said hissing, letting my full vampiric form take over me, getting ready to fight and protect him if necessary.
But he did stop moving and turned back on me.
"How scary... as much as I wish to eat the boy I assume with you protecting him I just can't... but you'll not be able to keep your eyes on him forever and when you don't... I'll come for him. Must I also mention that Michael is also looking for him? But you already know I assume, otherwise you wouldn't have gone through the trouble of hiding him so well."
... This scoundrel is one of the worst... he calls himself a Wheelborn but he's just a sick fuck whom I wish I could just kill right now... but my master said to only spill blood when needed.
And right now I don't need to destroy this entire forest just to get rid of him... I'm sure he's strong, but I am stronger.
"Oh, what a piercing gaze you're giving me, for such a small little girl you can surely put a grown man through hell with just your eyes can't you." He said while giving me a smile in return but I didn't want to take his insignificant speech any longer.
"Leave..." I said while leaving a drop of my mana burst out of me to scare him "Now!"
My piercing gaze went right through his eyes, to the depths of his brain.
I could see his facial expression contorting... trying to not turn his eyes but he eventually did.
No one in their right mind would dare to cross me if they knew who I am, or maybe a few... but just for precaution I should leave a blood clone inside him as well... Yes, let's do that.
Adonai:
Am I finally dead? I asked but no words seemed to come out of my mouth... I can't see clearly... I'm drained and I'm pretty sure I'm not conscious.
"Oh you poor thing... you went through a lot didn't you?"
Who's there?!
I thought instantly, not being able to discern what I'm seeing, the images are too blurry but I'm pretty sure I'm inside my soul judging from the blurred white around me.
"Oh you can't see me right... but you'll figure soon enough, you see I'm not the Angel inside you I'm something else... I'm conscious of a gift left to you by someone very important."
A gift? Who? Your voice... is oddly familiar. I can't remember... Why do I feel so sad all of a sudden...
Even inside my soul I can feel the tears dripping off my face, uncontrollable anguish rushing through me...
"Now don't be sad." A familiar woman's voice said while came to me, patting my head.
I don't know what to make of this... this is strange but comforting... but why I can't remember...
"You can't remember because this is a precaution left by the owner of this spell. You see back then she left something to you... a protection of sorts that mingled in your soul but thanks to that... vampiric little girl the mana in this spell is almost drained... and you're a soul-shaper so you can't fuel it yourself anyway... even if you have the meanings to."
So what do I do now? Am I even alive?
"You're alive yes but... honestly I can't give you an advice, truth to be told this spell was made with a condition like this... you can choose to keep the protection up for probably one more time, the protection in case you're not aware is that it turns back the time for the one affected. So let's say you're on the brink of death, using the stored mana I can turn back time for your body and you're completely fine... but the other side... with how little mana there's left you can check glimpses of the future."
Glimpses of the future?
I thought, considering that the future is something that can always change.
"It could always change, yes, but you see the decision one person makes will set a possible course of events, the more important the person is in someone else's life the more likely the path is to become reality... I'm afraid you already went beyond the first point of no return in your own timeline... so what you'll see is most likely what will happen... that's the future she chose for you."
...
Do I really have to pick? Why can't I keep you around me forever... your voice is so soothing... your embrace is so calm... your presence brings me infinite peace within myself so why are you making me go through this?
"Because that's how it should go... I'm but a fragment of mana left behind to guide you... I'm not her... I'll never be her... so choose, Adonai Melek."
... I want to see the future...
"As you wish... then may you embrace the visions that you're about to see... they are not in a specific order and they might make no sense to you but if this can ease your worries, your anxiety... This is really unlike her speech... so.... listen here, you might feel like you're in the trash right now which you are... frankly speaking you let me die... but in reality I chose to die... so don't worry about it... you'll have ONE MORE CHANCE to talk with me in the future... a version closer to the real me... so don't be sad... you're and you'll always be my… beloved."
The voice said as it disappeared, my vision suddenly healed and the whole space of my soul now lit up by a forget-me-not flower pattern...
As I'm admiring the view I can feel myself drifting away in the far ahead future...
...
I see peace... smiles, laughter. Me, Stella, Maverick we're all laughing, sharing good quality time together... It seems like a blissful time. I see us going on more and more adventures... I see a ring on Stella's hand... a smiling Maverick and a… a ... a war.
Planets blown up, millions of species crying, fire everywhere, not even the dark space of cosmos is safe anymore... creatures breathing multiple elemental magic, raining hell over anything and everything.
Mothers, fathers, kids, even the dead are not safe in this...
I see... Leviathan Lord crying... for her mother(?)
I see a gigantic serpent looming over a person clad in black armor in the vastness of space with no ground or planet to be seen nearby.
I see a beautiful human blonde girl crying and regretting what she has to do as a series of otherworldly tentacles are coming at ... me(?)
I see Stella again but this time she's with someone else... she's miserable.... She's running... she's scared
I see The Black Parade kneeling to Ragnarok and two other people... but there's a fourth one, a white haired man... no half white hair, half dark hair.. his hair made in a ponytail with two rebel strands hanging out of his front
I see an Angel with a thousand eyes dripping in blood... wings cut... lifeless
I see the Demon Lord calling for me(?)...
I see a stranger in a white armor fighting... no... sparring(?)
I see a mysterious man challenging me to a duel... he's so familiar yet so alienating...
I see a three headed beast... breathing something really strange over the everlasting white surroundings...
I see .... a... mountain of corpses, buildings destroyed, fire spreading everywhere... no sign of life in any vicinity.... and on top of the mountain of corpses there's the person clad in black armor again... I can hear his laugh... a maniac's laughter is the only audible thing actually... grinning and laughing he extended his arms right into the air and exclaimed "Black Abyss, feed on the souls of the damned"
He exclaimed right as he turned his head to look into my direction and I could see... a cat-like eye... a draconic eye...
But I got pulled out of it... what I saw made and didn't make any sense at the same time... but before getting pulled out of the successions of future visions I saw a line of text.
"This is my Long Lasting Farewell gift to you... until we meet for the last time..."
- Kathlyn Duska
"COME OUT WHITE FLOWER!" I exclaimed, jumping from my positions, now back into the real world. Prepared for attack.
At my words the scythe manifested without a second of hesitation but there's nothing to worry about... it's just Stella and Maverick...
"How long was I out?" I asked, worry dripping from my voice.
Stella cut in.
"Two days, we only found you thanks to that little vampire help. Are you okay?"
I'm worried, I'm not okay... what I saw... makes me nervous... I don't know what it is about to go down but I know it can't be good... I need... I need to get stronger and faster... but I can't tell them this... this should be my burden to carry as it was my choice alone that revealed this to me...
"I'm fine."
… I lied.
