Chapter nine: Radio
Hao leaves his young brother to regain the hearth where him and his band have moved in. He climbs the staircases which led to his room and locks up not to open the door more, to speak to nobody more. Opacho was behind the door.
-Hao Lord? Are you sick?
Hao shakes the head. But nobody could see it.
-No, Opacho. Do not worry. I just want to remain alone one moment.
Opacho doesn't add anything, but Hao feels that the little shaman remains close to the door. He roses and puts on the radio which is in his room.
-And now, the new song of this group come from the cold that you all like, The Rasmus, Lucifer's Angel.
The music starts, involving, and Hao is caught with tightening the ear to understand the words. Strange, for him which has never tested but contempt for the human normal ones, here that he behaves like them.
-Bah. Why not after all...
He assembles the sound, then returns to the window to look at the sky darkening. The voice of the singer starts the words.
Behind those eyes lies the truth and grief
It'sthe least which one can say...Hao has cross-piece the ages. He has known all the times, or almost, at least all those which were worth the sorrow to be lived. He has seen the silly thing of the Men, He has known their fear, their desires, their ambitions. And he has paid the price of them. Rejected by the men because different from them, rejected by the shaman because marginal... the sorrow, he knows it very well.
Behind those beautiful smiles I' ve seen tragedy
There still, Hao knows the song. A smile, it can be the mark of a sincere joy. But unfortunately, it's too often a mask to hide his fear. A smile, it is often to show that one is hypocritical when one human is...
The flawless skin hides the secret within
The idea of the mask is essential again in him. The skin is the renewable symbol. Today, to appear young, People just need to make withdraw the skin in excess, and one loses ten years. Which hypocrisy can push people with hiding their age and their wisdom?
Silent forces that secretly ignite your sins
Fly away, fly away
From the torch of blame
They haunt you The Lucifer's Angels
Never lived, you never died
Your life has been denied
They call you The Lucifer's Angel the angel
Even an old nickname can come out from a recent song. The angel of Lucifer, one would have just as easily could call him thus. Lucifer... Rakist X-laws which has joined his group controls this angel, most powerful of all, with Michael. Lucifer, rejects by his similar to have wanted to be caught for what he was not. He has been banished on a world which was not his. Hao is a little there him too. They are pursued her to overcome him and prevent him from carrying out his dream. One wants to cut down him because he represents the evil. But the Evil is necessary...
Beyond these clouds you can hide all your tears
The clouds has always been a source of pleasure for the shaman. Symbols of freedom, they are going merrily in the sky, free to take the form they like. But like everyone, they are to yield with the rules of the wind...
Beyond this world you'll be safe from to their wicked fears
This is a more interesting part. To erase their stupid fear, to create another world, apart from this one. The dream of Hao, shaman of stars...a world of Shaman, removes from the fear of these idiots human...World where he could live in peace with his similar...
And in their hearts they fear your demands
You know their minds won't accept you, they'll never understand
There too, Hao finds something which he knows. All the shamans know that his company is necessary, but none understand it. They know all that this world is not always for them, that this world has to be purified of these beings lower which obstruct them, which reject them, which drive out them. But none of them have the notch to cross the step.
Fly away, fly away
From the torch of blame
They haunt you
The Lucifer's Angels
Never lived, you never died
Your life has been denied
They call you
The Lucifer's Angel
On your own I know you can make it
Truth or bone. I know you can shake it
At the bottom of his heart, Hao knows that his choice is the good. He knows it necessary, even if he doesn't like it more than that. But he has learned how to live, to survive. He has to pass over his dislike to survive. He has to do it, because it is the only thing to be made.
Survives alone I know you can take it
He has believed it a long time. But not at all now. He has during a long time imagined to be able to survive alone in a world which entirely rejects him, which denies his existence. He knows that he has to survive and ensure the survival of the shamans, towards and against all. But today, he could not claim any more not to act but in his own interest. There is Yoh. His friends. And especially, Anna. She has been essential on him, she has crossed as much test than him. She is the one which shows him the way. She is the one which make him able to join this world. She is the only one which would enable him to survive in the adversity.
Fly away, fly away
From the torch of blame
They haunt you
Lucifer's Angels
You never lived, you never died
Your life has been denied
They call you
Lucifer's Angel
Fly away, fly away
Run away, run away
Hide away, hide away
Lucifer's Angel
Hao draws aside the arms in the fresh air. He has jumped by the window and has amalgamated his Spirit of Fire to reveal his over-soul. He passes through the lane, but does not find her. -One day, one will find oneself. The angel of Lucifer is not connected yet in hell. He goes up, always higher, and bores the clouds before disappearing in the night.
