Alright, here is the newest chapter. I'm sorry I can't update this for a month, I just enter college and so have to d some preparing for it. But, finally, I manage some time to finish this chapter and post it. And a slight warning though, towards the end of this chapter there's a quite graphical imaging of "something" (the first deadly sins to appear, I'm sure some of you already know what it is.). Even though I still keep it on T, and not cross to M, to those who's still disturbed by things such as this, I will tell you when you should skip ahead if you don't want to read it. Alright, without further ado, here it is.
Chapter IV
My Friend and I Went to a Nightclub
After I got home, I quickly go into my room to prepare whatever I may need to rescue Kaguya. While running in the corridor, I hear Father Hidemoto say, "Shini-kun, if you want to go out again, at least take a bath first." Stopped, I say, "Eh, but-." "No buts, just take a bath first, I'll prepare what you need," said Father Hidemoto. "Uh, alright," said me confused, but I just followed Father's order. There is one bathroom for each bedroom, so in the end my destination is still the same. But since Father said he will 'prepare' things and that I should take a bath first, I just decided to take a bath quickly and prepare later.
After the bath, I saw some clothes, a pair of sneakers, a flashlight, and even some ropes. 'What the? Father prepared all of this? Where he even got these things? Wait, he even actually prepare is already weird. Does he know what I'm going to do? Agh, forget it. Since Father prepared these clothes he must means that I should wear them,' thought me. Looking at the clothes that Father has prepared, I thought again, 'But, why the hell the clothes are all black and white, what are they, monochrome?'
All of the clothes that Father has prepared are monochrome-colored. The hoodie is colored black on the right and white on the left, with some kind of patterns on it, black-colored on the white area and white on the black. The long-sleeved shirt is also the same, with the colorings and patterns, the difference is the left is black with white sleeve while the right is white with black sleeve. The scarf is also like that, while the material is the same like my black scarf the coloring is also monochrome-like, white with black patterns on one half while the other half is black with white patterns. 'Wow, this is confusing, with all of those alternating colors, where the hell he got this anyway? Well, at least the jeans and sneakers are still normal,' thought me. The jeans are just black colored with white patterns, same with the sneakers.
After I done with the clothes and putting the flashlight and ropes in my backpack, I decided that it's time to go to the place where I met that will-o'-the-wisp. When I open the front door, Father calls me again. "Shini-kun, catch," said Father Hidemoto. Just turning my head, I'm surprised with two things being thrown at me. Barely catching it, I notice that they are keychains. With one is shaped like a blade with white color and the other is a yellow halberd. "I found the blade-like one in your suitcase. I thought you might need it, so I decided to repair and clean it. The other one is for your friend," said Father Hidemoto. "Eh, w-what?" asked me confused. 'Friend? Does Father mean Kira?' thought me. "Em-," I'm trying to say something before cut by Father. "Now, what are you doing here? Go, I'm sure your friend must have waited for you. Realizing that Kira might has arrived I decided not to ask anything and just go. "A-alright then, I'm going," said me as I step out of the church. "Be safe!" shouted Father as I become farther and farther away from the church.
Arriving at the place, I see that Kira also has just arrived. He's still wearing the same colored clothes like this morning albeit with black thunderclouds motives on the shirt and hoodie. "Hey, cool clothes, where did you get that?" asked Kira looking at my weird clothes. "I don't know, Father Hidemoto just told me to wear it. Oh, by the way, here this's for you," replied me as I give the yellow keychain to Kira. "Huh, why you give this to me?" asked Kira as he examines the keychain. "Father asked me to give it to you, I don't know the reason," said me. "I see, well, forget that, where is that spirit anyway?" asked him as he puts the keychain in his pocket. As he finished saying it, the will-o'-the wisp suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"You have arrived. If you want to save her, follow me," said the spirit as it flies away. "Hey, wait!" said Kira but the spirit still won't stop. "Well, looks like we have to follow it now," said him. "Then let's go," said me as both of us go after the spirit.
We followed the spirit quite far, passing some blocks and going through several alleys until the spirit stopped. "W-wait, i-isn't this, a n-nightclub?" asked Kira as we panting, looking at the place we've arrived. "My role is over now. Whether you can save her or not, now depends on you," said the spirit as it disappears. "H-hey, wait!" said Kira, but it's already too late, the will-o'-the-wisp has already gone. "Dammit, where is this anyway?" asked Kira as he looking around us.
"Well, we can think about that later. For now, we have to go inside," said me. "Wait, what, to the nightclub? Are you insane? You're still underage!" said Kira. "Hey, what about you? You're still underage too!" said me. "Well, I'm the Yakuza Kid, I can just enter it just fine," replied him. "You go first then!" said me. "Hell no, you're the one who have the idea, you go first!" said him back. "But you just said yourself that you're the Yakuza Kid and that you can enter it just fine, so you're the one who should enter it! After all I'm sure this's your father's," said me. "No, it's not. Our nightclubs aren't here, they're on the other side of the town," said Kira. "Wait, what?! You actually have nightclubs?! I just joking you know," said me surprised. "What?! Of course we have- Agh! Just, forget it!" said Kira frustrated. "Well, I'm sure the chicks here are still prettier than yours," taunted me. "Impossible! Fine, I'll go first!" said Kira. 'Finally,' thought me relieved. Kira stands in front of the nightclub's doors with his hand on both doors. "Alright, chicks, here I come!" shouted him as he pushed the doors, only to find the nightclub is actually empty.
"W-what the? I-it's empty?!" said Kira confused, only to turn his head to me and sees that I'm taking a picture of him opening the nightclub's doors. "H-hey, w-what are you doing?" asked Kira a bit afraid. "Hm, oh, I'm just taking a picture of an underage student entering a nightclub," answered me. "Wait, what?! You traitor!" shouted Kira, angry. "Hey, relax, it's not like I'll spread this out to the whole school," said me, putting my phones in my pocket. "Oh, I see, fuh, then erase it, please," said Kira, relieved. Walking through the doors, I say, "Well, I'll still hold onto this, in case I need a blackmail material," with a grin. "Agh, I knew it, you traitor! Come back here!" shouted Kira as he chasing me to the nightclub. But I keep walking to the center of the nightclub ignoring him. Suddenly, when both of us has arrived at the nightclub, all of the lights go out.
"W-what the hell?! W-what is happening?! Ahh, I'm blind!" shouted Kira in the dark. "Hey, calm down, it's just the lights went out," said me normally. "O-oh, I-I see…, hahaha, I knew it, hahaha," laughed Kira nervously. "Hah, but, the problem is, how we should proceed from here, with the lights out?" asked me. "Hm, you're right, hey, let's search for the switch, there have to be a switch for the light somewhere, right?" said Kira. "Hm, you're right, we should search for it," said me. But as we start searching for the light switch, the lights suddenly turn on. We suddenly arrive at a place that is completely different from before.
"W-what the?! What is this place?! How can we arrive here?!" said Kira, clearly surprised with our new surroundings. The place we arrived at is a circular room that when I look up I can't see where the roof is. 'This room must be so big, I can't even see the ceiling,' thought me. On the wall around us, there are six curtains that is hiding something behind it, but from the only opened curtain that is in front of us, I deduce that the others are also hiding the same thing, a big stained-glass mirror painting. "W-wow, w-what is this? I haven't seen anything like this before," said Kira. "Hm, you never saw stained-glass painting before? There are lots of those in churches, right?" asked me. "Well, I have seen some, but what I mean is, I never saw one as big as this," said Kira. True, the painting's height is practically ten times bigger than us. Stepping closer, we realized for the first time what the painting is about, and that horrifies us to the core.
(Alright, here comes the "little" disturbing part. If you don't want to read it, skip.)
Naked girls, a really lot of naked girls all around the borders of the painting, all of them are forming something like a spiral with the center of the painting as the center. The center of the painting of the painting is a male, or something like that. It has 2 curving horns from its head, its face are really handsome, but the blood red eyes and the evil smile ruin that image, its long hair that is colored light red spread all around its body, covering its sensitive parts, and finally, from its back sprout out 3 pair of light red bat-like wings.
Around the girls that are the closest one to it, I can see some faces. Apparently, the more to the center, the scale of the girl is getting bigger, the clothed girls, even though the clothes are too revealing, but it's still better than stark naked, are also more frequent, and the girls' faces are also much clearer. While the farthest one from the center's girls' face are hidden by their hair, the closer ones' unhidden faces are a bit blurry, but I think it's better that way. The much clearer girls' faces are painted with euphoria, their smiles are like an insane, with drools running on the sides of their smiles, and their eyes are looked up, nearly rolled back, like they're actually feeling some kind of ultimate pleasure, so pleasuring that they became addicted and mad because of it.
Among the girls' faces there only some whose faces aren't showing pleasure, instead their faces are showing hurt and pain, but it's probably still the same, seeing that even though they're not smiling, they still have the same rolled back eyes, opened mouth that's contorted in pain, still with drools running on the sides, nearly the same with euphoric faces, but instead of pleasure, they're euphoric from pain. But even then, there is one girl that is much more clearer than the rest, she's painted on the center, just in the arms of the devilish male on the center.
She's wearing a white dress, almost like a bride, it's still a bit revealing, but not as much as the rest. The dress falls below the feet, the length is covering all of the body. But the most important and horrifying thing about the girl is not the revealing white dress, but instead the face. "I-isn't that Hakuran-san?!" said Kira, really scared by what we saw. Yes, the girl on the center is no doubt Kaguya. That brown hair, that pale skin, and that brown hair, it's no doubt Kaguya. But the thing that makes us horrified are the expression, the emotion of the face that Kaguya makes. Her mouth and eyes are opened, like all of the other faces, she is somewhat feeling pleasure, but the eyes and the tears that running on her face cancel that, giving it also the emotion of fear and pain. Like she's feeling pleasure, but she's actually feeling pain and scared of it at the same time.
(Okay, that's it for the disturbing part. You may continue reading.)
"Oi, oi, Shini, does this mean that she's actually trapped in there?! What should we do now?! What should we do?! Hakuran-san! Hakuran-san!" shouted Kira, clearly aggravated by all of these things happening now. Walking closer until I'm right in front of the painting. Grinding my teeth, and tightening my fists until it's turned pale white, I thought, 'Is this it?! Is this the end?! We've gone through all of those supernatural things only to see that we're already too late! Only too see that we can't do anything at all to save her! Is that it?! I want power! I need power! Not to gain anything! Not to take anything! But to save her! Just to save her! Just to save my friend! I want power!'
'Just so I can save my friend! Her! I want power!'
"Then so be it, Partner."
Suddenly both of my arms feels warm. Stopping his shouting, Kira looks at me. "S-Shini, w-what is happening to your hands? W-what are those white flames?" asked Kira, forgetting what he's just did before, clearly in awe by what he sees. Lifting up my hands, I see that indeed they're covered in white flames, strangely, I don't feel any pain or burns like the usual flame, just a warm feeling in my heart. 'W-what is this flame?' asked me in my mind. Opening my left hand, I see I gripped the white blade keychain too hard that it leaves a mark. 'Wow, I don't even notice that I'm holding it all this time,' thought me. Suddenly, the white flame that is covering my left hand goes inside the keychain, leaving a bright light. Closing my eyes, I feel my left hand suddenly becomes heavy. 'W-what the?!' After the light subsides, I open my eyes, only to see that the previously small blade keychain now turned into a real white colored blade, the length is around 80 centimeters. "W-wow, that's cool, how did you do that, Shini?" asked Kira. But I don't answer him, I suddenly know what I got to do. Lowering my left hand that is holding the sword, I lift my right hand up, and opening it, a stained-glass mirror then comes down from nowhere, on it is an image of an angel with white attire on white background with black patterns. Stretching my right arm and positioning the mirror in front of me, I say,
"Per, so, na!"
White flame and winds then come out of the mirror, covering all of us. When I open my eyes, I see it. The same angel as the one on the mirror, with white attire, floating on the air.
"I am thou,
And thou art I.
My name is Ambriel,
The Angel of the Twins,
The Keeper of Balance,
Calleth upon my name,
And I shall cometh."
After that, another blind light is covering us. But I know that after I open my eyes, I'll be ready to save her. For I have the power, for I have…
Persona
Alright, so how is it? If any of you have problem imagining Shini's clothes or the image of Ambriel, please wait for a while for I'm working on their pictures now. It may only be finished in a couple of weeks though, so I hope you can be patient and wait for it. Alright, that's all I got to say. Good, bad, make sure to tell me your opinion by reviewing. May We Meet Again.
