Vermilion Sky
By: Yurien-Sai
It was a serene place, a vast meadow filled with flowers of different colors, slowly swaying along the gentle breeze.
Everything here creates a wonderful sight…still, I can feel the sadness in my heart; longing for something…someone I don't know. As I looked up in the sky, I saw the cotton like clouds moving and forming into various shapes.
I wish this would last forever.
Then I lie down and pick some flower with a color of vermilion, gently placing it on my chest. Suddenly I feel like crying, my eyes was drenched with tears.
I was tired of an unknown reason. I want to rest…to sleep and dream of a beautiful tomorrow.
The night seemed endless, there was an uproar coming from afar. I immediately stood up and ran, but I don't know where to go. Then I stopped and looked around, I was petrified at what I saw…
Why I end up here...in a midst of a horrifying war, where people cried in an agonizing death?
I tried to scream but no one seems to hear.
No, I can't hear my own voice!
Why?
I started to utter a single word but still, I can't hear anything. I covered my face and wished that this dreadful nightmare will soon disappear. Then I felt a warm, rust smelling liquid in my hands. My heart throbs fast as if it was going to explode in my ribcage.
-Blood-
My throat suddenly felt dry…
I was thirsty… I was…
No!
I saw a lake nearby and immediately went there. Then quickly washed my hands until any trace of blood is gone; drank much water to quench my thirst, However, I was still thirsty…
I can't endure this anymore; there was something inside me that wanted to…KILL.
What is happening to me?
Then I heard something, it was an eerie song coming from a girl with a dulcet voice, but the more I hear of it…makes me felt strange. I was on a trance like state, though my subconscious mind keeps telling me to…RUN.
Run…Why?
When I looked at my back, I was transfixed at what I saw; before me was a horrible creature ferociously growling and was going to devour me. I flinched backward, trembling. As the Monster step closer, I slowly pick a piece of stone and throw it on the monster's eye. Then the horrendous monster bellows like thunder, making my whole body shudder.
Run…
There's no other way but to run…run as fast as I could, just to escape this imminent death…but I slipped and fell on the ground.
No, I can't die yet, not in this way, I have to do something…to live.
When I fumbled along the reeds, I saw something glistening, illuminated by the moon.
-A SWORD-
I took it but I accidentally touched its blade, making a large slit on my palm. Smeared with my blood, the sword looks familiar to me. I was pondering for a while, that I didn't notice that the monster was already behind me, it suddenly attacks me and wounded my legs.
I can't stand the excruciating feeling that instilled inside me…
Kill it or else you'll die…
I…I…NO!
In an instant, I saw the monster slowly crystallizes and break into pieces.
How?
I was half- terrified. It was me, who killed it, using this sword in my hand.
Tired, I lay down for a brief respite, trying to recuperate from my exhaustion. I looked up in the sky which is beclouded with dark fog.
RED…my vision is all RED…like Blood. Blood that came from the monster I killed.
Then all of a sudden, I heard some footsteps coming closer…
I slightly tilted my head sideway and saw a man's shadow. He started to say something…his voice was so familiar and filled with sorrow, lingering in my mind. My eyes suddenly became blurred with tears; yet the only word that I heard was…
SAYA…
I gently closed my eyes, reminiscing any of my memories that lie in the depth of my past.
As I reckoned every moment that I was alone in my cocoon, he was still there…forever waiting for me.
Now I finally realized it...I am not alone…not in the past, present or in the future…
"Saya…"
Then I slowly opened my eyes and saw him next to me…snuggling me closer to his chest. He lovingly looked at me, tenderly wiping the tears in my cheeks. As I touch his face, he gently held my hands, feeling it on his face. I looked around and saw the azure sky…Am I only dreaming?
No, It's not a dream…everything is real.
"Haji," I said to him. Then he only smiled, his eyes were saying that I will be here for you always and will never leave you no matter what happens.
"I love you, Saya".
I was filled with strange emotion, I was…
"I love you too…Haji" then I smiled.
I wish this would last forever.

A/N: I'm sorry if it's a bit too short on Saya and Haji's Part. I really like Haji so much and Solomon as well. In this story, the monster that Saya depicted was a Chiropteran and the girl singing was Diva. It is a bit too short for me too, but I'm looking forward to write another story. I hope you like it.
