Defying Gravity
Prologue
Theme: Prelude 12/21 by AFI
This is about you that you can't keep a secret. This is about you that you can't runaway from the world. This is about you that you've made your upturn this way.
Apart from the world, who are you to defy anything else?
He solemnly lay asleep; not awoken for the years of its time. He tried to forget what he may have realized in the past through his woven sleep. He tried to lose himself, hence became ignorant to the world.
For now he lay asleep in this darkest hour. In this dark oracle that will encircle the fears of the young and old.
It's a promise he can't keep.
It's a will of life that he has to face.
And perhaps…
The best way to forget everything else was, let alone, to gain much hatred from the entire citizenship and mankind.
The breeze blew vividly, caressing his features, thus blowing strands of his hair swiftly to the side.
He still lay asleep.
For how long he would have to bear.
The agonizing tears he could hear.
Those eyes he could penetrate…
Those bloodshot eyes.
In this land of tribute and tormenting soulless interpretations, he had never known where he actually belonged.
Nor he had never known…where he would need to search…?
The battle chooses nothing of us, or nothing of them. It chooses the fight of the lifetime, not the greatest hero of all.
The walls became pleasantly silent.
His fingers which laid still had given its momentum.
The moment of truth came.
His eyes flickered slowly and it was no sooner, he was wide awake. The path that leads through an opening flickered, fluorescent blue rays that enlighten the path vigorously.
Slightly awake, he glanced around him.
The dark hollow that seemed so bare and shallow.
The cold air that rushed in. It was bare. It seemed more than just a shallow reign
But remorse wasn't on him. His lips curved up into a sly smirk.
Beet with excitement, he stood up slowly and ghastly walked across the path stream, like a shining bold armor that has been polished brand new, ready for battle royale.
Hair of amber yellow, the flawless fair skin that outshine his dark personality.
The bandage that covered his nose. It was his trademark for quite a milestone…
Years of anxious waiting and desire, he was already heading out to the open world.
Then again…
But the only thing that differs..….
….was his bloodshot eyes.
