Haunted
Distortion
Solun
I never knew one person could embody so many different qualities. That is until I met him. A stubborn, idiotic, arrogant fool, and yet he was the single most gentlest, confident, affectionate, and devoted person I have ever met. For a short time he gave me a reason to live again. However, time and again I am proven how fragile the life of a mortal is as opposed to someone like me, who cannot die.
Despite all that, he refused to yield just because of his weaker body. He had the drive, the mindset, the faith in himself, and the will to overcome any, and all obstacles. No matter how many times I would tell him to stand down, he would instantaneously find a way to make himself strong within that moment, all because he wanted to help me. Even if at times he could be a bit overbearing, I admired him for his unyielding devotion for those he loved. Yet, this passion is the very thing that ended him.
He had a second chance at a new life, and then he had to meet me. Why didn't I learn my lesson the last few times? Why couldn't I keep myself away from him? Why do I continue to make the same mistake, hoping that in the end I will eventually rejoin them? If anyone was the fool, it had to be me. My mere presence put him in danger. So many enemies who wish me dead, and yet with each one, he stubbornly faced them with me. And when my darkest hour had come, and my mind was taken over by the stronger entity of another, he followed after me, vowing to set me free again.
How cruel you are Aion.
He fought so passionately with words of conviction. I could hear him, but I could not reach out for him. I could sense his distress for me through the magical connection I forged with in his very core, and yet it wasn't enough to bring me back. That is until my sister came! The two bravely attempted many times to reach me within the heat of the raging battle around them. Both so desperate for me that it made my heart ache.
Because of me my sister got hurt, and because of me, my best friend perished. His smile haunts me. How could someone who has had to sacrifice himself again, smile so kindly despite the obvious pain on his face? He refused to even leave, until I had the strength to look at him one last time, to see that smile, to remember him as he was, and not as he was to be after. I could only watch in my exhausted state of being, as the very man who gave me so much hope, turned his back to me so he could go die out of our sights. So driven he was to make that smile the last thing I would remember of him.
Oh how it worked. I have lost track of time here. Even after his spiritual form had tried to comfort me of his loss, I find myself here, in his home, staring at the back of this sofa. This room, that used to be full of his laughter, his mischievous teasing, our arguments, and our struggles, is now filled with a hollowed void. For a time I had forgotten how lonely the silence was. It mocks me. It has left me with time to brood over my mistakes, my failures.
And finally, I can no longer take the silence. I find myself so far away in the abyss, that my soul no longer feels the pull of the Obelisk in which it is bound to. My crimson wings feel heavy with disuse, the glow they used to give off now a dull spark of their former glory. I stand at the edge of a floating mass of rock, looking down at the endless nothing that the abyss has to offer. Here I could die, for good. Then, I could finally rejoin them all, the ones whom I have had to leave behind, and maybe, just maybe, he will be there to.
Feeling so very empty, I let myself take that first missing step. Falling. I watch as my body uselessly falls down, head first into the nothingness of this realm. Soon, so very soon will I see everyone again.
I forewarn you all, these 3 chapters may be a bit confusing, in part because these are biased off of a Role Play between me and my friend Eclipsia(clippy), who is the actual player of Solun, and Aeolune. as you can imagine this means i role played as Atem. but this has to do about a part in our role play where Solun is taken over by the spirit of Israphel, and Atem vows to release Solun from his control, and you pretty much will get the rest of what happened through reading, i wont spoil anymore XP. So I hope you guys enjoy all the Angst that is in this lol. (and yes this is a crossover because, well the hole me Rping as Atem started off as a joke XD and has developed an actual story as we went with it)
