Lazura: One more chapter to go, and the prologue for the Guilty Chains series is complete! :)
Disclaimer: I don't own Soul Eater at all except my ocs.
What Asura didn't know, was that Aurelia Reeds was from a different world.
He had no way of finding her.
The only way Asura was able to find her was through his dreams.
He felt useless.
However he didn't give up finding a way to protect Aura.
Asura held a grim face.
He knew sooner or later the madness of terror would tear away his sanity.
Asura knew he was becoming attached to Aura the more they continued to converse among each other.
The painful feeling inside him causes Asura to regret on being unable to protect a little girl.
"And then daddy would throw me up in the air whenever he returns from work!" Aura spoke animated about her father.
Asura started to wonder. The first time he met her, Aura thought she was being punished for not crying for her father.
"You seem to talk a lot about your father." Asura interrupted Aura's talk about her father, "You must admire him."
Aura soon became quiet, strangely quiet as she kept her head down.
"Aura?" Asura tapped the girl's shoulder, only to find drips of tears falling from the little girl's eyes.
"I-I'm sorry, Asura." Aura sniffled, "I do love my father very much, but...but..."
Asura felt as if he landed into a hole after hearing Aura's words.
"He's not coming back." She rubbed her eyes trying to get rid of the tears, "Mommy doesn't smile anymore. So I try to be strong like daddy always said..."
Asura yet again didn't know what to do, all he did was cradle the little girl crying in his arms.
Lord Death, his father, would notice the markings on his current clothes. However Asura knew that he can cover himself in another shirt.
Aura seemed safe in his arms for now, but terror will always linger close by.
Hidden in his shadows.
Awaiting to eat Asura and Aura on it's own.
She will never be safe with me.
Asura started putting on another shirt, except this time it was red.
The more I fear for her safety, the more madness of terror follows behind me.
Hiding his face behind bandages Asura heard Lord Death's voice.
"We need to find the dastardly Eastern Witches!"
Heading out, Asura was readying himself to finish the job before the rest of the members arrived.
From within his bandages, his head glanced over to the flowers wilted in his pocket.
They didn't last quite as long as Asura thought the flowers would.
"Asura," Varja called to his meister, "We should finish the job now, before Lord Death and the others get there."
"Let's go, Varja." Varja nodded as he changed into his weapon form, marching on. Asura held onto his weapon.
He stared at the knew scene before him.
A ground filled with many witches.
Asura sat down on the ground after finishing the job.
He stared at the scene before him.
Countless purple colored souls floated in the array of dead witches.
Not a single blue soul in sight.
Even if all the souls were purple.
Asura didn't want to see one blue soul.
Madness may eat me whole.
Asura looked up at the red sky above him.
But, I won't kill a human soul.
I won't kill her.
I won't kill Aura.
Never.
