Shattered dreams and lost hopes
Chapter 2
Unconscious
Everybody was worried, Aniko especially, they looked at her to see that her irises were darkened, and she looked like she was crying.
'"A… Ani… Aniko… Is that really you? Aniko, what is going on, why are you here? Why am I here? Why do I feel no warmth coming from your body? Why?Why is this happening?" She walked over to her beloved friend and touched his forehead, "I love you, I love you so dearly, Aniko, as friends." She stroked his forehead once more; she then felt a searing pain in her left shoulder. She let out a deafening scream. She touched it to find an arrow that narrowly missed her heart, she turned around to see two blurred figures, after her eyes focused, she saw a man and woman dressed in red and black they were covered in blood. "We are the Death Duo, and now you shall die" said the two forms in unison.'
The group heard the scream and heard what she had said. Aniko jumped at what she said, being glad when she said, "I love you, I love you so dearly, Aniko," till the soul tormenting words, "As friends." That made him drop to his knees in dread. They had also seen something pierce through her left shoulder right above the heart, but they did not see what it was. Knowing Aniko, he was shocked, he tried to wake Reukuna up, but it did not work, hoping his next attempt would, he touched her once more and was frozen stiff in the outside world.
'He was lying on the ground right next Reukuna, he saw the arrow in her left shoulder and the Death Duo, "It is you two again, you annoying pests!" said Aniko, "You shall die today." He then got up, took a soldier's sword and started charging at them. Once he reached them, they vanished, "Rats, not again," he cursed, "are you ok now princess?" he asked.
"Yes, thank you," she replied, "But how do we escape from here?" she inquired, looking around her surroundings, "Where are we? How did we get-Wait! Did you just call me 'princess'? What do you mean by…owwww!" she shrieked, grasping her shoulder, "Owww… That hurts…" she mumbled, "Why did you do that for?" Aniko had pulled out the arrow from Reukuna's left shoulder. She was obviously in pain, since she could not stand.
"So that in the real world it can heal. If you do not pull it out now, you will or can die. Since there is no way to get it out in the real world. And nobody wants that to happen to the princess, now would they?" He said¸as he held her chin. Aniko gazed into her eyes, smiling, "You are… You are so… Beautiful." The maiden blushed, tearing away from his gaze, only to look back again, unknowingly why. Ensnared in his presence, he smiled happily, his tender lips got closer and closer to hers wrapping her arms around his neck and waiting for the moment when their lips would interlock. Aniko was surprised at her actions, but took the liberty and chance while it was open.
Reukuna's heart was racing madly. His arm tightened around her waist and the other reached for her back, caressing her tenderly.
Then all of a sudden, a pure white light blinded them'
"My head hurts," said Reukuna, as she clutched her head and looked at her surroundings, "Where are we?" she asked while looking at the extremely detailed ceiling and the beautifully painted walls. She finally looked at the huge bed she was sitting in, a king size, with a canopy, rich sheets and a beautiful hand-carved headboard, but no Aniko, "Aniko…Aniko…Are you here? Aniko? Nevermind I will go look for him." As she stepped out of bed she felt the pain in her back once again, knowing not to touch it she placed her hands to her side and felt the silky fabric that was placed over her thin and frail body. She noticed it was a pale sky blue with a hint of purple at the seams, her hair was tied up in a nice bun, some of her hair hung down upon her glowing cheek. She then decided to find Aniko, or anyone, hoping there will be no more distractions, she set of to find someone.
She went through the extremely large hallway while admiring the beautiful paintings and large rooms, decorated differently and done in different colors. She heard two people speaking and commenced to follow the voices. One was very deep and sounded like a king or emperor.
