Darkness was about him, comforting him, encircling him, yet also warning him of the danger that lurked within it. He always found comfort in it's embrace, the cool evenings away from the city, where everything was locked it dark, rich colors. The blue of the shy, so deep it looked almost black, and the many stars that danced about the sky, always falling in different ways with the different seasons. And the moon soared across the sky, bringing gently light than the sun's. It didn't hurt his eyes to look at the moon.
But danger also came with beautiful, calming darkness. Not darkness itself, but the creatures, the people hiding in it, using it to do what they please. He didn't fear it, he had seen worse, but one should never assume they are perfectly safe. No, not when he had people he had to protect, when he knew the consequences of being careless and naïve.
Soon though, the world was not only a place of deeper, darker colors, but of soft grey filtering in, making the landscape around him turn ashy. His eyes adjusted to the light naturally, and he witnessed the darkness gently being pushed away. It never disappeared, it would aways remain there, somewhere in the world. The greys took on undertones of the many colors he had seen before, and then they emerged slowly from it. The trees were now a soft shade of emerald, and the grass, patches of peridot.
He did not however, feel anger that the light was mixing and merging with the darkness. It was natural for it to happen. It was a constantly occurring moment, dawn always overtook through the night, and then once again, darkness would settle over the land. He also knew moments like these, where neither darkness nor light was stronger than the other, both holding him gently.
He sat up off the hard ground, brushing the dirt off his green jacket, taking a deep breath of fresh dew at early morn.
'You know,' a faint voice from beside him said, and he felt transparent fingers running through his hair. 'You need to get more sleep. This is why you're always so tired. You never want to close your eyes and rest and night.'
"She does have a point Judai." A voice from beside him said, this one very clear, and crisp as the air surrounding it. " You're aways awake by the time I'm up, why is that?" A grumbled 'meow' came from the other side of his companion. The boy had wild teal hair, the color of a fresh, uncharted sea. His eyes were soft green, shinning like jewels yet he could properly name what kind. They were light green with soft streaks of blue, not having a set color to them. His skin was ivory, with a few light smugged of dirt like his own. He thought for a moment, looking up at the light blue sky, with blurred pinks and golds staining it. A light smile made it's way to his lips.
"I enjoy to see the light overcome the darkness."
