White Eyes and Black Blood
Chapter 13
From the neck down, the two escapees were completely immobile. Asura paced and Soulblaze disappeared in a flash of light. Mitsuru looked around her in horror. The kitchen was a mess of burn marks and frost.
"What's your name?" Shiva asked the boy.
"My name is Dan. Nice to meet you." The boy exclaimed.
"Why would you tell them your name?" Susano'o asked Dan. "You don't know what they even plan to do with us."
"Nothing weird. We just wanna know why you were in our house making eggs." I said.
"Well I heard someone say they wanted scrambles and so I figured it would be less weird if I made you the eggs." Dan said proudly.
"That might make the situation even weirder Dan. Anyway, can you please unfreeze us, we mean no harm." Susano'o said. Shiva did as she was asked and Susano'o bowed with respect. Asura still looked at Susano'o uninvitingly.
"Lighten up Asura," I began. "They mean no harm and, they made us breakfast" I walked over to the frying pan that still had my eggs in it. The pan's bottom was still warm. I grabbed a fork and ate.
"pwees, engoy duh hawse" I said with a mouthful of eggs. Shiva soon arrived to eat some of my food as well. Asura and Susano'o both walked out of the kitchen.
"Why did you come here Susano'o?" asked Asura.
"Because you're running out of time Asura. Erebus grows stronger by the second. Once he hits a certain point, he'll revive himself. In fact, If I did the math right, we have anywhere from approximately five months to a few minutes before he returns. I say we take them to the elevator."
"What elevator are you talking about?" Asura asked confused.
"Our elevator. I say we should set out with them tomorrow morning."
"Just to take them where?"
"Into our realm. Its time they got a sense of what type of power they're dealing with."
"I guess there's no stopping you." Asura said sarcastically. The blue snake like markings on the arms or Susano'o began to glow their faint blue.
"Im glad you came to understand. Rest up Asura, from tomorrow, we have to save the universe."
As I wolfed down my eggs, a familiar pain returned to me. My eyes began to sting. I fell to my knees and clutched at my eyes wanting to rip them out of my head. Asura and Susano'o both returned.
"What's up Shun?" Asura asked me. He picked me up and set me down on a chair. I got up and ran to the upstairs bathroom. My eye pain subsided and I looked in the mirror. My eyes were gone. They were back to their usual white selves where I saw no crimson red iris. I felt weak. My eyes boosted my self-esteem and just like that, they were gone. I picked myself up. You never know what you had till it's gone. I probably should have taken more selfies. I walked out of the room to see Adonia, bloodied up leaning on the wall leaning on the wall.
