The sun rose steadily over the Terra, unveiling the result of the night's event. The buildings, although intact, seemed to have been abandoned, as if the previous occupants had been in a hurry to escape. But escape what? They never saw it coming. Bodies were strewn across the streets, confusion and disbelief decorated their lifeless faces. It had happened so fast. Each one cut down on the spot, with no mercy. Even the local squadron, the Shadows Knives, couldn't stop the threat.
Someone stirred underneath the willow tree of the town centre. He yawned and slowly opened his emerald eyes, and stared straight into the unseeing ones of the Sky Knight from the Shadow Knives. He gasped, and tried to get up, but only managed a crouch as he was held back. Looking down at the obstruction, he realised that the former Sky Knight held tightly onto his arm. The boy gripped the hand and tried to ease the fingers off, to no avail. Come on, he thought desperately, come on! He began to tug violently at the hand, and winced when he noticed the cavernous hole across the man's chest, when all of a sudden it grasped his own. Hesitantly, he looked back at the Sky Knights face, and gulped.
"C-can you h-hear me..?" he flinched, and tried to get out of the grasp of the dying man.
"How… How could…. You…" The man began to pull at the boy fiercely
"How could I what..? What's happened here..? I…"
"Don't… Play tricks... with me…! Y-you… know…" the sky knight hissed, and began to breathe heavily.
"I don't know! Ok? Just get off of me… Hakon! Let go!" the boy persisted, trying to loosen the grip the Sky Knight, Hakon, held him in.
"F-fool, you… you think… that you can… get away… with this.… Aerrow…" Hakon coughed, and then he collapsed with a violent shudder.
Aerrow quickly got to his feet, and shivered. Must have been there all night, he thought, surveying his surroundings, and I slept through this?
"What happened here..?" He thought out loud, and with one sad glance back at Hakon, he began to make his way through the fallen bodies, away from the town of death.
