Well, I kept my deadline this time, LOL. I guess this story is going to finish soon. Oh well, here's the next chapter.
Please Enjoy:
Final Decision
Yuan was down to his knees. There was a small pool of blood forming around him. He couldn't move. Martel grinned, looking down on him. "You are not welcome here," She said flatly.
Yuan didn't move. He was using one of his hands to hold his wound and the other to keep him in balance. Yuan didn't reply to Martel. For few minutes there was silence. Neither of them moved. The wind blew their hair into the air as they stared at each other.
Yuan smiled. He wasn't exactly smiling but looked as if he tried to keep his laughter in. Martel continued to glare at him coldly. "Hahahahaha," Yuan exploded. "Yea, I shouldn't have," Yuan answered. Yuan gathered himself and pushed off the ground to stand up but fell down to his knees again. "Ouch haha… oof,"
Martel stood still; on her right hand was a small silver dagger with red blood dripping down from it, some part of her pretty dress splattered with crimson blood.
Yuan was soon quiet. He looked into Martel's eyes. "I guess I lost. I don't believe that I let my personal feelings made me hesitate," Yuan smiled. "But promise me one thing. As Mithos's sister, won't you let him out of this world?"
"Let him out? You are the one that is not considering Mithos' feelings. First of all, you don't even know whether Mithos' body is still intact and even if he makes it out there, how do you think he'll live? There are those who really hate him out there and he will be left out of the society. Elves won't allow him to do go to Heimdall since he is a half-elf and so will all the countries in Tethe'alla where half-elves are despised. Are you insane?" Martel shouted.
"It has been a year since the world regeneration hasn't it? Don't you trust those who are out there that promised to change the world? Don't you believe in Lloyd and the others? How would you know? The world may have changed drastically in the past year," Yuan countered.
"It's not possible. It would be much better for Mithos to live here happily instead of having to live in that world full of discrimination," Martel retorted.
Yuan sighed. He knew that everything he is going to say is futile. He looked up at Martel one last time. "I hope you do what is best for him," Yuan was silent. But he was still looking at Martel. Suddenly, Yuan made a surprised face. He gazed through the distance, looking behind Martel.
"I think this is going to get interesting," Yuan smirked.
"So, do you have anything you want to say?" Martel ignored him.
"Nope, nothing at all," Yuan sighed. Martel knelt down to Yuan's eye level and leaned forward, gently kissing him on his forehead.
"If we would have met in a different world, things wouldn't have turned out like this," Martel whispered sweetly into Yuan's ears.
Martel parted from Yuan and gave him a one last smile. "Good bye…" Martel lifted her dagger into the air and…
Mithos couldn't watch any further. He sneaked toward the back of the house and went into the back door and snuck up the staircase and jumped on his bed. Yuan, who always tried to do what is best for him and advised him, he was gone. He was starting to feel dizzy as the picture of Yuan being killed kept on repeating in his head.
"This can't be happening." Mithos muttered as he covered himself with his blanket,
"Mithos, are you sleeping?" Came a familiar female voice followed by a sound of the door being shut. Martel was back in the house. Mithos didn't answer. From below him, he could hear the water running. Martel must be taking a bath. The image rang in Mithos' head again. Martel's long white dress was drenched with red, crimson blood, the blood of her lover, Yuan. What she did was very inhumane. She wasn't his sister who he saw every day, smiling in front of him.
Mithos tried to forget everything and sleep. His heart was still pounding fast but he managed to cool his head. The sound of the running water stopped. Mithos relaxed. Few minutes has passed. The whole hut was quiet.
"Mithos?" Came a small voice. Mithos didn't answer. It wasn't because he was scared, but he wasn't sure how he was going to face his sister. Small stepping noise was heard from the floor below. It was first a small thumping noise at the start, but before Mithos noticed it, the sound started to grow louder. It was Martel, coming up the staircase. Mithos looked away from the door and feigned sleep. There was a small creaking noise by the door.
"Mithos? Are you asleep?" Martel spoke softly so that she won't wake Mithos if he was asleep. Mithos panicked. He didn't know how to react. Mithos could hear footsteps approaching him. Beside him, there was a small pressure on the bed, indicating that someone was sitting beside him. For few minutes, there was silence.
"Don't worry Mithos, no matter what happens, I'll always be there for you," She whispered. She gently brushed Mithos' hair. "I won't let anyone take you away from me," She gently leaned forward and kissed Mithos on his head. "If anyone… anyone dare try to take you away, they'll be sorry that they are here," She smiled. Martel stood up and slowly walked outside as quietly as possible. When Mithos heard the door shut, his body relaxed. This was not going to end well. His sister Martel who was always caring and sweet didn't exist anymore. He finally decided. He was going to get out of here.
So the direction of the story is set, all that is left is HOW
