Journey of a Hermit – Chp 3

This story’s probably gonna end in chp 5 T_T, but don’t worry I’ll make another . (I’m listening to Chopins music while writing . Be sure to read Chp 1 ~ 2 to understand this)

Hours, into days, into months, into years. I had lost track of time when Angel left my life. Before, with her I was a blooming flower about to bloom my fullest. But now I’m just a lonely rock on the side of the streets being pushed around by other people. Ever since she had left me my heart felt as if it had been completely ripped out of my body, along with my soul. I felt as if my heart was just thrown away, as if it had no use at all. But it did. Part of my heart gave me the pains of loosing the most precious person in my life, it gave me reason not to live anymore. But the other part of it told me never to give up. It told me to keep sticking to my dreams. It told me never to lose hope ever, and never to stop loving Angel.
And….to never to make bad decisions in my life….

My entire body felt lifeless except for my head and heart. I had many headaches, and pains. I coughed every few seconds and I knew I was going to die. I had been without her for such a long time, it seemed like an eternity. The last time she left me I was only 43, she was 31. I had been in a rush to try to become a hermit when she left, but I didnt have any more inspiration.

“Hey man, I think you should rest you gained a level already, go rest” Felix said hesitantly. He too thought I would die soon. I saw Felix again at the train station trying to console me for the loss of Angel. I could tell he also liked Angel, but I loved her. Our feelings for her were not the same…I ignored all his comments about my health and just thought, and trained.

” Oh Angel why have you left me…I don’t care if I get hurt, I just want to be with you forever.” I whispered to myself crying.
Felix then speeded closer to me and hit me in the back of my head with his new Shinkita. “What the hell is wrong with you dude? Can’t you just freakin’ live your life with out caring about her!?” He again bashed his shinkita on my head hard. But it didn’t really hurt. I was sitting on the floor idle. I was numb from my illnesses I couldn’t feel any pains whatsoever. It really just felt as if someone threw a feather in my face. I started to get greedier and angrier when she departed. “You just want her for yourself don’t you? You just want her with you in your arms. Well keep off her shes mine and it’ll always be like that.”I said in anger.
“Why are you so angry I’m just telling you to rest but I can’t knock any sense into your lead filled skull!!!!!!!”
“AAAHHHHGG” I hasted myself towards him and started slashing and repetitively throwing kumbis into him. He was too startled and shocked to dodge anything. He didnt think I would do anything this drastic.The stars I had thrown were thrown with all of my might, anger, and greed. He was paralyzed, he couldn’t move at all, for I had shot his arms and his legs.

It wasn’t til I threw the last star into his body, that I had retrieved my conscience back. I had gotten all my senses and my soul. I froze thinking of what I had done to this innocent persons life. I had just destroyed it with a few twists of my arms. I think…..I had……ki-
A jr.grupin’s horn dug into my back and I almost fainted. But my heart told me not to. My heart told me I had just done a bad decision but I could still stop it. I had to carry Felix back to the Orbis hospital in Orbis park….

I had passed many strange people who kept staring at me. As if they were trying to………..
“ATTACK!!!!!!!” The clan around the potions shop tried to kill us with their deadly arrows and such. But being an assassin I quickly manoeuvered away from them. Unfortunately they also had assassins…. They chased me high and low until I had to fight them. They wouldn’t let me leave. I left Felix behind an abandoned building and started to attack. 5 against 1, not good odds but I managed to fight 2 off anyways. Then after a long while I fought all of them off. I had become more bloodthirsty after I killed all of them. I had a new feeling for killing…Why were they attacking us?

“Finally” I said in a tough voice. The last member of the clan was brutally slaughtered and decapitated..
It was not gruesome to me, because I had gotten use to these things with my family. My brother Markus protected me from all harm, even if it ment his life. But he left after my parents died. I was left alone to fend for myself, with no one to look up to. I was living the hard life..

“Heheheh, very very good Nocticus, I expected you to be brutal, after all we are alike” said that same man who stalked me all the time. This time I wasn’t scared, I was just annoyed. He followed me everywhere!
“Alike? Yeah, I don’t think so”
Felix woke up and started coughing blood, I had to help him but I also had to kill this guy. Fortunately my luck started to pop up. One of the clan members tried to shoot me, but he missed and hit the man.
I took my chance and ran away to the hospital.

We finally reached the hospital.
“What happened?” the docter asked.
I hesitated and started to think of a lie. “He..um got in a fight with a clan an ended up getting hurt”
“Oh my, this poor man almost died!”

Died. A word too familiar to me. I was in the process of dying right now.

I felt so incredibly sorry for what I had done to Felix. So I had taken his advice on resting.
The next morning I felt a knock on my room in the Orbis Hotel. “Felix probably..” I whispered to myself.
I slowly opened the door. It wasn’t anyone familiar, just a little girl. “What would you like?”
“Please help me! I lost a important fwend!” she exclaimed, “I was playing with him til I had to go potty”
“Then he was gone!” she cried.

This girl….She reminded me of so much. But, why did she specifically ask me?
“Ok little girl I’ll help you”, I said in a slightly childish voice, “How does he look? And where were you when you last saw him?”

The girl lead me to the place where I was ambushed by the clan. The blood colored the stones red. The stains withered the plantlife that was near.

“I think it was here”, she said excitedly.
Out of the blue, the girl fell face first to the floor. Her face bled and I heard an evil laugh.

I looked in horror as I saw the man………With a companion…………
Felix……
