Chapter 1

It was like a sea of death. Bodies everywhere. All dead. Even him. Even he was defeated. But to her, it seemed impossible.

He couldn't really be dead...Could he?

"How...How did this happen...?" her voice was shaky. She glanced at the body. "Adell...you can't really be dead." Tears started streaming down her cheeks. She fell next to him. "You can't...You can't...!" she screamed. Her head was against the body's chest. "You can't leave me here. I need you." she said in a quiet whisper. Everything was silent, except for the sound of her sobs. "You can't leave...You just can't..." Death was everywhere. She was alone.

"Adell...don't leave...Please..."

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Suddenly, her head flew up, drenched with sweat. She was gasping over and over, trying to take in air. "It...It was a dream..." she said between gasps. Tears were streaming down her face. She looked around. Darkness blanketed the small room. "...Yes...It was...just a dream..." She brought her knees up to her face and rested her head on them. "It...seemed so real." She started crying. "But...What does it mean...? What's going to happen? Especially...to Adell..." She sniffed. "Adell..."

The young man opened his eyes. He could hear crying from the next room. "Rozalin?" he said to himself. He got up from is bed and opened the door.

In her room, Rozalin was still crying. There was a soft knock at the door. She didn't bother answering, Adell came in a few seconds later. "Rozalin? What's wrong?" he asked.

She sniffed. "I...um...I had another dream...a nightmare.."

"Another?"

"Yes...It was like one I had before...but...it was...different."

He seated himself next to her on the bed. "Are...Are you okay? You're crying." he asked in a caring tone. Her tears shone in the moonlight like diamonds.

Rozalin answered, "I'm...fine."

"...Rozalin. Don't lie to me. Something's wrong. Tell me."

She turned her head slightly. She just couldn't bear to look at him, after what happened in her dream.

"Death...There was death everywhere." she replied. "Including..."

She paused and shook her head. "N-Never mind about that last part."

It'll be best...If I don't tell him. I don't want to worry him...

"Rozalin." He placed his hand on her cheek. "I'll always be here. You can tell me anything." He smiled and wiped a tear with his thumb. She smiled as well. "...Okay."

He leaned foward and kissed her. She returned the kiss.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

The next day, Rozalin was a bit spacey. That worried Adell.

What does that dream mean? Is it another memory from Zenon's past? But...why was Adell there? And more importantly...Why...Why was he...dead...?

She got up from the table and headed outside. After a few seconds, Adell followed her.

I'm so confused...Why is all this happening?

The demon seated herself in front of a thick tree. Adell came up to her and seated himself next to her.

They were both quiet, until Adell finally said, "Rozalin. You're hiding something from me."

She turned and looked at him in surprise.

How...How does he know?

"Rozalin...You can tell me anything. Anything." he added.

Rozalin felt tears burning in her eyes. She turned around. "You...don't understand..."

"Understand what?"

She was silent. Tears were appearing.

I have to tell him...

"You...You were dead!" She stood up and ran, tears dripping off her cheeks.

"W-Wait! Rozalin!" He got up and ran after her.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

The demon stopped and caught her breath. She planted herself on the ground.

It...It just came out...

Adell trudged after her, her words still ringing in his mind. "You...You were dead!"

As he came closer, Rozalin became more afraid.

Adell...I'm sorry I ever got you involved in this! You're going to die because of me! I'm just a heartless demon...I'm...Overlord Zenon.

He stopped when he saw her. Adell walked up to her.

"R-Rozalin..."

"Adell, stay away."

He couldn't believe what he was hearing.

"It's my fault...It's all my fault. Adell...I'm sorry I got you involved in all of this...You're going to die because of me...It'll be best...if you just took me out of your life."

He froze. Her words were like driving a stake through his heart.

Adell...this isn't easy for me. I love you, that's why I want you to forget about me.

Adell walked closer and hugged her. Tightly.

Rozalin was surprised at the sudden gesture.

"Rozalin, I love you! I can't forget about you! Even if you lose control and turn into Zenon, I'll still love you! No matter what!"

She felt tears in her eyes.

Adell, you know me too well. It was like you read my mind. But what if I do turn into Zenon and kill you? Would you still love me then?

"Adell, I love you. That's why I have to leave. I don't want to hurt anyone else. Zenon could take over my conscience any time he wants to. I care about you too much to let you get involved."

He was silent.

"...Rozalin. I don't care. I'm not gonna forget about you."

"A-Adell..."

She suddenly felt dizzy.

N-No! Zenon, don't come out!

Rozalin managed to keep Zenon from breaking free and killing Adell. Even Zenon knew that the only thing standing in his way of freedom was Adell.

Her body felt limp in Adell's arms.

"R-Rozalin! What's wrong?!"

"I...feel a bit dizzy..."

She passed out in his arms.

Adell was worried that she might be sick, so he placed his hand on her forehead. It was hot.

"Dammit.." He said. "She's coming down with a fever. But how did she get one so quickly..?"

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Once they were back at the house, Adell placed Rozalin on her bed.

Her breathing was labored, and she was sweating like mad.

"What the heck is happening?" Adell whispered.

He left the room.

It's only a matter of time...Adell...until Zenon is released...I can't hold him back for long...

Chapter 1 end
