Betrayal Leads To Friendship

After Cornering An Unusual Foe In A Dark Place

A Fierce Yet Quick Battle Begins

Ending With The Unusual Foe Being Defeated

Yet For The Victor Something Didn't Seem Right

. . .

He Didn't Feel Like Himself

In Fact He Didn't Even Feel Like A Human

Somehow He Was Different

He Finally Realizes Something Really Isn't Right

. . .

He Had Just Been Robbed

He Did Not Lose Any Money Or Belongings

But His Body And His Name

And Even All Of His Trusted Companions

. . .

He Was Now A Purple Shadow

With Nothing To Hang On To Or To Cherish

He Knows He Needs Someone's Help

But Who Will Be Willing To Help A Shadow?

. . .

With The Foe Being The Victor

He Simply Waits Quietly

For The One He Changed Into A Shadow

Just To Taunt Him And Eventually Strike

. . .

When The Shadow Confronts The Thief

He Is Forced To Flee As His Attacks Do Nothing

He Continues In Search Of Help

Little Did He Know Someone Special Awaits

. . .

At The Entrance Of The Dark And Dim Town

A Shadow Like Himself Searches The Bushes

Crying And Sobbing

For A Reason Very Personal To Her Only

. . .

After Escaping The Unusual Thief

The Shadow Enters The Dark And Dim Town

But What Can He Do When

All Everyone Sees Is A Lonely Shadow?

. . .

It Isn't Until He Notices The Lonely Shadow

Who Is Still Crying And Sobbing

He Notices That She Too Needs As Much Help

He Approaches Her And She Explains Her Story

. . .

She Is At Risk Of Being Punished By Her Sister

If She Doesn't Find An Important Object

That She Was Blamed For Losing

Luckily The Shadow Cares Enough To Help Her

. . .

When She Begins To Panic And Sadly Tells Him

She Was Meant To Be Punished Her Entire Life

He Cheers Her Up And Tells Her It's Not Her Fault

As It Is Her Sister's Fault As Always

. . .

Touched By His Kindness, She Decides To Help

After Learning Of His Own Recent Situation

At First He Refuses, But Then He Allows Her

As She Is Supposed To Be His Enemy

. . .

But He Soon Sees Something He Never Noticed

He Sees That She Is Pure

Unlike Her Oldest Sister Who Does Nothing

But Hurt And Tease Her

. . .

Although Not Physically, Verbally Is Just As Bad

. . .

But They Understand Each Other

As They Are Both Alone With Nobody Beside Them

But What She Doesn't Know Is That He Is Her Enemy

That's She's Supposed To Destroy Not Help

. . .

She Thinks He's Just A Mysterious Stranger

Who Showed Her True Kindness

Her Decision To Join Him Was Easy For Her

But The Next One Will Be Just The Opposite

And that's the end…
