Warning – Warning – Warning – Warning – Warning
[Cause i’m kinda pissed and depressed so the idea came to me]
I wrote this story around… 5-6 PM PST, I wanted to release it tomorrow, but this chapter is like the good part. I also didn’t want to change it because I spent an hour or two… or three writing it.
Alright, here it goes. Enjoy readers!

That morning when I woke up, I looked around. I went to the stream and washed my face. Looking for food and materials, I headed into the forest of Ellinia. After about 20 minutes. I got 2 long sticks, some firewood, and some carrots from the patch I saw last time. I built up the fire back at camp and went fishing. I caught 2 big fishes the size of the keyboard you use to type. I descaled, gutted, and attached them on sharpened sticks to put over the fire to cook. Meanwhile, I washed the carrots I picked up and put it on leaves for Milkshake. When the food was ready, I went to wake up Haruki and Milkshake for breakfast.

Leeeex…
I turned around and saw nothing. The voice that said my name was low, soft, and slow. I looked around, and stopped. When woke up Haruki and Milkshake, they went to wash their faces at the stream. Haruki handed me my cape so I put it on. We ate and disassembled the tent and took out the fire.
“Good as new” I said and we left.
After about an hour and a half, we found a hot spring shop and aside of it was a small restaurant. We asked the owner if we could use the hot springs.
“Ahh, two persons and a pet, that’ll be 1500 mesos.”
I payed the guy and we went in. I could hear Haruki on the other side of the hot spring talking to Milkshake as I laid there in the streaming pool beside a rock.

Looking up, I said to myself “Hmm… Who was that…? Who keeps calling my name…?” then closed my eyes.
“I am calling your name”
I jumped up a bit and looked at the corner. The room got very cold and the steaming water turned into frozen mist.
My side of the hot spring became more of a watery freezer. Looking at the misty transparent figure I tried making out who it was.
“I finally see you… It’s been so long since we’ve met… I’ve missed you, Lex…”
“Could it be…? And yes, it has been long… I’ve missed you too… but… Kind of awkward seeing me naked though…”
“Hehe… You’ve changed alot… But I still see you as the same Lex Aeterna I have met before.”
“What happened t—“

Lex… Lex… LEX!!!!
Before I could finish what I was saying, my sister’s voice broke the conversation, and I felt my body cold as I woke up in the warmth of the hot springs. I looked at the corner but didn’t see the person I was talking to there.

“You were talking to yourself, I heard you say you missed someone and they saw you naked?”
“Ahh Ahrm, umm, you heard nothing, ahh… umm… ready to move on, Haruki?”
“He’s lying~ Kyuu~”
Haruki, Milkshake, and I came out of the hot spring very clean. When I looked at Milkshake, she had a very bright and brilliant coat of white fur. “What? What are you staring at, kyuu?
We washed our clothes and bought two white sauna robes for 7000 mesos. While we were waiting for our clothes to dry, we went to the restaurant to eat since it was early noon now and our bodies were a bit weary from hiking.
“Let’s see… What do you want Haruki, Milkshake?”
“I dunno, onii-chan. Hehe, Hey Milkshake, want a milkshake? Hahaha!”
“Mrrr…!! THAT’S NOT FUNNY, Kyuu…”
“Erm… okay… What do you two want, though?
“I dunno.”
“I’ll eat anything but meat, kyuu~”
“Umm… okay… Waiter, two unagis and one salad, please.”
“Sure thing, what do you want to drink?”
“Hmm, good question. What do you two want to drink?”
“Orange juice, onii-chan.”
“Carrot Juice, kyuu~”
“And i’ll have Grapejuice with milk, thanks.”
After talking a bit, the food arrives and we eat. Discussing where to go, we decided to head to Henesys since it was close and we needed to stock up on supplies.
“The bill is 4,500 mesos, sir.”
I paid the waiter and we dressed in our regular clothes. We kept the white sauna robes as a souvenir, folded it, and stored it away in our Maple Backpacks we also bought at the place.

We left the green breezy cool forest of ellinia and now were in the lands of Henesys. Open fields with haystacks and Hills with flowers, we made our way to Henesys. We looked around and saw Snails moving in groups of 4 and more, chit chatting along the way as they were going under a tree, Slimes playing hide-and-go-seek with one another, Orange mushrooms bouncing around with their friends, and big groups of pigs running about, for food and exercise. A ribboned pig ran along and dropped a beautiful red ribbon. Picking up the ribbon, I said
“Hey, you dropped–” but by that time, the pig was far from here with its family over at a hill.
I looked at Milkshake with the ribbon and put it on her.
“Wow, I look pretty now, don’t I?? Kyuu~”

We continued to Henesys but as we walked the open road, a group of 5 rogues came from a hill.
“There’s that bastard that elbowed me and threw a subi at my friend!”
I turned that way and they took out their daggers.
“Haruki, take Milkshake and go behind that tree, I don’t want you to see this…”
“Okay, Onii-chan… Please be safe”
As my little sister took Milkshake to the nearby tree I told her about, I pulled out my Maple Wagner.
“Guys, get him!! He got a Wagner!! That’s over a million mesos!!! We’ll be rich!!!
“Ambush him!! We can win!! 5 against 1!! We can win!!
“Y34h, g37 73h b4nd17!!!11111oneoneoneone”
“Your friend has horrible talking issues. Look, my sister, milkshake, and I are just trying to make my way to Henesys, so get out of the way.”
“No! We want you to suffer! And we want to rob you!”
”Yeah! And that stupid pet what used to be ours too!”
“Umm… okay… You asked for it.”
With that said, two of the rogues charged at me. I dodged both slashes and kicked them on their legs. The other three threw their daggers and me. Two missed, one cut me on the top part of my right shoulder.
“Haha!! I got him!!!”

The three put on Garniers and pulled out a sack of Subi Throwing-Stars. They were setting up to throw, as the two with the dagger came at me again. The one on my right attempted to stab, but I blocked that with my panlid then whacked him on his face and knocked him out, the other tried to stab me in the back, but I turned around quick enough and kicked him to a haystack. The trio that had the garniers on started to throw subis at me. I began to block with my panlid and Wagner.
Onii-chan!!
I turned around and saw that the rogue I kicked to the haystack was coming to Haruki.
He thrusted his dirty rusty dagger at my little sister. Before it landed, Milkshake jumped in the way.
“Nooo!! You stupid rogue!! Mrr!!”
The dagger pierced Milkshake in the stomach.
“Heh, you stupid pet, you deserved to die!! Now you’re next, stupid girl!!”
He took out the dagger that entered Milkshake and thrusted it at her. The dagger pierced through her arm as she tried to block it. She let out a painful scream. I stopped paying attention to the rogues that were throwing subis at me. 7 subis hit me on the body.
That was the first time I ever saw my little sister get hurt. I ran to Haruki and Milkshake but turned my direction to the rogue that stabbed her. The necklace that was hanging from my neck grew black with a pulsing red glow. I went to the rogue and stabbed him straight in the heart and used his lifeless body as a shield and I advanced to the trio of rogues. One I was close enough, I threw the lifeless body on the ground.

“Uuuaahhgg…”
The trio moaned, and that was the last noise that came from their mouths. My little sister looked at me with such horror as tears rolled from her eyes. Milkshake laid there taking short, fast breaths, staring at me with fright and the same horror my little sister had upon her face. From what my little sister saw, she saw me use one Savage blow with such hate, power, speed, and rage. 6 hits per person from 1 Savage blow. My cape blew upwards for a few seconds then settled back down, covering my back. The rogues that were throwing subis were grinded and their limbs were severed into one bloody pile. The one that was knocked out regained consciousness. He pulled out a dagger and made a run to Haruki to stab her. She laid her eyes upon me when I appeared in front of her in an instant. She glanced away and looked at the rogue, but when she did, the rogue bursted into blood and fell into a pile of limbs.
She looked at my eyes then at my bloody body. My eyes lightless, my body stiff, and my hand dripping with blood.
The necklace hanging from my neck started to bleed. It never had blood spilled on it, but it bled.
“O… Onii-chan…? Onii-chan…”
Life began to fill my eyes. The heart on the necklace stopped bleeding and the darkness that consumed the heart filled with light and the loop of light and darkness continued once again. I dropped my Maple Wagner and looked at my hands and body. Looking down at my bloody feet, I said
“I’m sorry you had to see that, onee-chan… I saw darkness consume what I saw and it felt like a dream… It was the first time I saw you get hurt like that… I couldn’t stop it…”
She cried and hugged Milkshake. I looked at her wound and I looked at Milkshake. Picking up my bloody Wagner, I made my way to her. Struggling, I realized the subis in my body. I pulled all 7 out and threw them on the floor. Taking a sigh, I continued my way towards her. I carried the both of them and made my way to Henesys. All the creatures around the fields looked at me with such horror and fright. When I arrived at Henesys, Everyone looked at me. The blood stained Red China I wore… The blood dripping from the tip of my Maple Wagner… And the bloody footsteps that followed me where ever I went. I looked at the wall and I saw a wanted sign.
“Attention! There are a group of rogues roaming about in Henesys Fields! Capture them and bring them to me, or if by any means, kill them! -Chief Stan”
“Ahh… I see…”
I kept walking, looking for the potion shop.
I arrived at the potion shop and bought bandages, two antidotes, two white potions, and a mixing bowl.
I mixed the two antidotes with one portion of the white potion to create a healing substance, then picked some nearby herbs and added them in.
“Aaahh… Ouchie…”
“Ahh, come on, it doesn’t hurt that bad Haruki, Milkshake.”
“Let me see you pour it on a wound you have, kyuu!!!”
“I don’t have a– OUCH!”
Haruki was poking the wound I had on my right shoulder then poking the seven wounds on my body. I told her to stop and I said i’ll see if the medicine really burns.
“Alright… There… It doesn’t… ow…”
“Told you, kyuu~”
After pouring the medicine over all our wounds, it started healing fast. I wrapped the wound with the bandages and we drank the remaining white potion in the bottle to recover some health.
Haruki? Haruki Hotaru?
Haruki turned around and saw a close friend of hers.
“Who’s that, Haruki?”
“Tai!!”
He ran towards Haruki and gave her a hug. I looked at his name badge and saw “AznBb0iTai”. They were talking and chit chatting for quite some time.
“What happened to your arm?”
“My onii-chan saved me, hehe”
“He’s covered in blood…”
“Yeah… Some stuff happened today…”
“Here, come to my house. You two can wash up and we can talk there.”
We made our way to his house and rested there. He threw towels at us and told us to wash up. Haruki and Milkshake went to the bathroom to take a bath so I just looked around the living room. A picture caught my eye and so I went to take a look at it.
“So, looks like you and Haruki go back pretty far, Tai.”
“Yea, it’s been about a year since I last saw her.”
“Funny, for a year, shes been with me.”
“So that’s where she went… I see your name is Lex Aeterna.”
“You can just call me Lex.”
“Alright, Lex.”
We chit chatted for about an hour then Haruki came out of the bath clean once again. Milkshake seems to have come out clean too. Before I went into the shower, Tai said “Give me your clothes and i’ll wash them for you.”
I went into the bathroom and changed into a towel. I handed tai my clothes and Haruki along with Milkshake went with him to wash all the clothes. I warmed up the bath and went in. Looking up at the ceiling, I layed there, then I closed my eyes.
“Hmm…”
“Lex…”
Once I heard the voice, the room turned very cold, with a freezing mist. I looked around and saw a figure sitting next to me.
“Lex…”
“I see you have come back… and once again, you catch me naked.”
“Yes… Listen, I don’t know why… but I have a feeling we’ll be seeing each other soon…”
“I had a dream where I thought I saw you… but I couldn’t see your face…”
Meanwhile, Tai and Haruki was washing my clothes.
“Hey, let’s look in your brother’s clothes lol”
“No… I’m not sure… It’s kind of wr– Okay!”
“Let’s see what he has, kyuu~”
They searched my clothes and pretty much everywhere.
“What the hell is this? Doesn’t look like an ordinary Red Potion.”
“Hmm… Let’s stop looking, maybe he has some stuff he doesn’t want us looking at.”
“Like pr0n?”
“What’s that?”
“Hahahaha, nothing, nothing, let’s take out all the stuff and wash it. Don’t want to walk around Henesys looking like a bloody murderer or something”
Back to the shower, the conversation I have with the figure continues.
“I see… I hope to see you soon…”
“Me too, ah—“
“LEX!!! You in my bathroom for a long time!! Everything okay?”
My eyes open and I can feel my body with great coldness. I quickly wash up and put on a towel.
“Here are your clothes…”
I took the clothes Tai handed to me and got dressed. I went to a nearby window and looked outside. The sky was dark and the moon was high in the sky shining its light upon us.
“It got dark kinda quick”
“No… you been in my bathroom for 3 hours”
“Ahh…”
I went to the kitchen and prepared some food with Tai. After cooking everything, we settled the food we cooked on a Maple Dinner Table. We ate and talked and Haruki told Tai what happened.
“…And so that’s what happened… it was frightening seeing what…Lex… Did…”
“I’m sorry you had to see that, Haruki…”
“I see… Well, since it’s dark, you all can rest here. I have a spare room with two beds.”
“Yay, a bed!! I never got to sleep in a bed before, kyuu~”
We all laughed and continue eating. Tai had some pajamas we could wear so Haruki and I changed into it and went to bed. Milkshake cuddled with Haruki and they both fell asleep. Slowly falling asleep, I looked up at the ceiling.
“If you’re here… Goodnight…” I said in a low, soft voice and fell asleep.

“Goodnight… See you soon… Lex…”
