The 50th Alias

It was like any other ordinary day. The sun was bright in the horizon. The cerulean sky specked with birds and rifts of hazy clouds. The breeze, too, was cool for anyone to perspire. Those tiny cottage houses sprinkled everywhere and the old windmills turned within their rusted screws and sails. People frolicked and paced on with their ordinary country lives. Children ran in playful pace, happy, contented and without a care in the world. For they had lived their young years in peace with this earthen land they had been borne onto. It was like a womb itself, It was the village that they had considered as home.

The vision narrows to scout out a pair ; a country lass and lad running as they had been until they had reached the village's boundary. Their pace slowed dramatically as both of them were breathless. Pure wonder and discretion plastered upon their faces. The little boy turned to the small girl beside him and raised his finger above her lips, hovering there, signaling her to keep quiet. The lass just smiled and obediently nodded and bobbed her head in a doll-like manner. He smiled at her, contented with her and the joy that they would find as they trudged further into the forest. The green lush awaited them.

Hand in hand, they walked. Up ahead was a patch of rich green. Excitement was clearly etched in their tiny, innocent, cherub faces as they chased each other towards that fertile place. The soft bed of dawn-dew grasses welcomed them, tickled the sole-skin that brushed their way, sent out fine sprays of the summer's dew on their limbs and moistened them with the essence of the season. The fragrance of the flowers assaulted their noses. This was their secret place , the place only known to them , where they had played with only each other until the setting of the sun. Laughter echoed within the meadow.

Tired from all the playing that they did, both of them laid on the grass, catching their breaths, waning their heightened pulses and watching the sun diving to saturnine oblivion. Today was peaceful, today was a full life and he couldn't wait to experience the next. He wished it would last forever, his love for this land, the warmth of his people and the gentleness of nature that had nurtured him ever since. He wish it could last forever. But young as his age was, he couldn't help to feel more. That there was always an end to this and that nothing would last forever...that everything that he was experiencing right now is only temporary and that one day will come that the would live another different life. He had no idea where he had learned such ideology but it only popped up as if it was born with him, as innate as his own organ structure. As if it was his twin, As if his soul was more sensible than his time, As if he had lived a thousand years ahead of everyone. For him it was his personal turmoil, it was his silent torture and it was his mystic hell. His mind was mature than his newly formed flesh...That was very alarming.

Suddenly the girl beside him squealed.

" The sky..Look..!"

The little boy tilted his head upward and what had met his eyes unnerved him. The cerulean sky was turning into a diluted orange. It was a spectacular scene but something inside him told him that it wasn't that magnificent. It was his other side kicking in. It was the more logical child telling him, possessing him and dominating him. Soon, not a blue streak was seen in the sky. all of them turned red, like a wildfire casted in the Heavens, blazing with all its shattered fury. The older one inside him had whispered to him, telling him, taunting him on what to do next. He felt weak and useless. The older one from within was his waterloo.

" A citrus sky!"

The girl couldn't help but articulated her excitement. She cannot contain her wonder but the boy beside her didn't share her glee. It was horrible, his feeling, it made his insides churn and his hairs shiver. His heart ran wildly in his chest, mutilated his very being with stimuli he cannot decipher with his tender mind. It felt painful. The notion made him feel that something was not right, that the wonder in the heavens was a cloak that hid terrible loath and wrathful anger. It was the gods , his logical self had told him, They were angry..they wanted revenge . It spelled danger and he had no idea in what to do to prevent this or to save him and the little girl beside him. The notion made him feel that something was really up and that something was as dark and indispensable as the sky above him now.

A crack was heard shortly after. So hushed was the twinge that the girl beside him couldn't hear it. He stared at his female companion who was still looking heavenward with an awed expression. He turned away and tried not to show his anxiety. He wanted to grab hold of the girl's hand and drag her away as he ran but his will couldn't make his body follow. Oddly, the logical side of him was telling him to keep silent and to stay put as he was. He wanted to let destiny unfurl at him, no matter how gruesome the outcome would older child wanted him to stay..at all cost. He submitted , halfheartedly to that side , since time immortal . He had never outwitted his logical side. He never can and never will so he was frozen on the spot. Sweat dripped on the sides of his face like clockwork. Another crack sent his nerves to the very edge but he didn't scream his terror. The complaint were washed down by the logical side, he was trapped by that congenital stranger.

"I think we should go home.."

He announced against his logical will and it felt painful. The older one inside him punished him. Like tiny needles forcing him to swallow back the words that he uttered, torturing him to do its bidding. This startled the little lass. The emerald gleam in her eyes reflected against the citrus sky. Those eyes intoxicated him that it hurt just by looking at her a little bit longer. She looked so adorable that he ought to protect her from anything terrible. That was why she was the only one he had shared things with, the only child to talk to him without feeling abashed the only girl welcomed in his secret place.

"B..But..why?" Her stammering voice was like a note from a classical harpsichord. She was still a child but there was mysticism in her voice that was it. The very reason why she had blended perfectly in his world. They were a team. Pluck one of them and you could break the other. That was how fragile they were.

"We have to..."

He felt sheer panic crawl over him and overcome him as he noted the changes in his surroundings. It was becoming dimmer and bleaker. It seemed gruesome. Both of them had sensed the abrupt shifts and looked upwards by instinct. The clouds were gathering in a gigantic swirl of gray. Thunder rumbled somewhere. The girl froze, realization hitting her just as tremendous as it hit him. He struggled to stand, on his two little feeble feet to lead her. His eyes pierced right through her, telling her that they would be all right, that they were still safe like nothing bad had happened, that as long as they had each other they were protected but his eyes betrayed him. It reflected horror and it sang to her being. She outstretched her hand to him. Just as their hands were about to clasp each other, the soil shook and made him stumble. The earth gave a cracking sound and before he knew it, he was losing solid ground. He could feel the sinking feeling of being weightless, of falling taking over his weak body. His tiny hands tried to anchor himself to the soil but it was useless. The ground would crumble like talc in his palms.
