Where it all begins

A dark mist descending at the sky. Surface, painted by fresh red blood..from a dead body. This feeling..fear,filled my body

[Alice! Get behind me!!]

The yell from my brother shocked me. I couldn't move,I'm scared..I don't want to die!!

Before the Demon God could reach me, my brother.. The Hero.. Pushed me hard to where Pinocchio is, his best friend, the hero got stabbed from behind then coughing blood

The Demon God grinned

[My,my...you still got some energy left to be stabbed by me, maybe I shouldn't go easy on you after all]

The hero ignored the Demon God words and yelled

[YOU TWO! GET AWAY FROM THIS PLACE NOW!!]

[But.....What about you!! we don't want to leave you alone!! ]

The hero puts a smile on his face as if he was okay. Tear started to fall down from his eyes as he speaks his words

[Pinocchio, I'm sorry.. I couldn't keep my promise to you....I should've... Perfectly prepared... Before.. ]

The hero's voice is trembling. Pinocchio, who was in front of me.. Couldn't do anything.. He only gaze through the floor, feeling useless.. But then

[Chio.. Run away.. Take good care..of...Alice... ]

Hearing those words, Pinocchio lifts up his head looking at the hero

[Alice.. Brother is really sorry.. If.. I could.. ]

[CUT THIS NONSENSE OUT]

The Demon God voiced Echoed through the entire place

[I'll make all of you suffer]

The hero losses his strength even to talk as the Demon God is somehow looks like done charging an immense amout of energy without us realizing it!

[Face despair... Humans.. ]

Pinocchio quickly grabbed me and dashed out the place through the open door as fast as he could.

But, it was too late.. The impact from the blow launched by Demon God is just too much that we got separate..

[..... ]

I slowly open my eyes

[..... What..... Is this... Place.. ]

I stand up in confusion, I could see nothing but ruins.. But why.. I felt like... I'm missing something..

[Owww! ]

I tried to move.. But my legs hurt. But I won't give up! I forced my self, even though it hurts me. Eventually, I was able to walk slowly.. At the very least..

*explosive sounds*

Ah.. That sound... Pretty dangerous.. I need to go out from here... Immediately!

[.... ]

I kept on walking.. Alone.. Without anyone.. Then I think about it... Why was I here? Was I always alone? Am I forgetting something? If I really did forgot.. I inhale and shouted

[GOOD MORNING! ! ]

Why can I speak if I really forgot.. My voice echoed through the surrounding and the ground where I'm standing at started to collapse

[Ah! What's happeni- Ahhhhhhhhhhh! ]

I fall down the cliff.. It hurts.. Fortunately.. I didn't hurt my leg. I then sat down and tried to wipe the dirt on my messy clothes.

[That's pretty lame... ]

After cleaning the mess on my clothes,I saw something.. Like a village there... I stood up again to take a look there.

[Ah! This one looks fine! Maybe I could take a rest here for awhile! ]

Before I get to enter, I heard a faint.. Voice.. Of a person. I turned back and ask my self.

[Where did that come from? ]

I make myself looking for the voice. The voice got more clearer

[There it is! ]

I jumped only using my left leg to reach there. As I reached the place, I could see a man, with a black yet yellowish hair. I approached him and was shocked seeing part of his body covered with blood. I must save him! That's what I have to do! I carried him to a safe shelter I found moment ago.

[I wonder if he'll be fine]

Not to mention he is pretty heavy so it took me time and struggle to take him there. After a while.. We reached the place, I kicked the door to open it.

[Just... A lit... tle.. More]

Upon reaching the corner side of the room, I immediately let go of him and sigh in exhaustion. But suddenly.. I felt a very heavy weight on my left hand....
