Two joyful days have passed by fast… It was midnight, and an owl’s hoot was heard every once and then.7Please respect copyright.PENANAWPrEXAODBo
Kairo stood at the front door, a black coat covering him. It was storming outside. He had a knife in his hands.7Please respect copyright.PENANAXuDeoiGphe
The lightning casted a blue light over the city when it struck somewhere. He grabbed his keys out of his pockets and opened the door.7Please respect copyright.PENANA2EACAH7xzY
He closed it behind him and walked towards Luneth’s room. It was awfully quiet. To the point where Kairo didn’t hear anyone breathing.7Please respect copyright.PENANAXjGSFhqU9y
The lights flickered twice and went out. The power… Once again. He took a candle and lit it up.7Please respect copyright.PENANAYVT0CkbhqZ
He opened the door and slowly walked inside the room… Luneth was sleeping on a wooden bed next to Lunar. Selene wasn’t in the room…7Please respect copyright.PENANA9zrbZviYoP
The door closed behind him and he felt someone pushing him. He fell on his hands. Selene was in the room, breath ragged and trembling. 7Please respect copyright.PENANAz1NPxsOlBn
The candle also fell on the ground… A little fire appeared behind the man, but no one noticed.7Please respect copyright.PENANA4aoMmAoI06
She stood in front of the bed, arms spread wide. “D-don’t get closer..!” she mumbled, her voice shaky.7Please respect copyright.PENANAZxCGDDbErp
Kairo looked at her from the corner of his eyes. “You…’’ he said, gritting his teeth. He took the knife in his hand again.7Please respect copyright.PENANA2vo3H9fUXL
Selene roughly shaked Luneth’s body… She woke up. “LUNETH TAKE LUNAR AND RUN FAR AWAY! DON’T COME BACK! TAKE CARE OF HER, PLEASE..!!” Selene pleaded, tears streaming down her cheeks.7Please respect copyright.PENANA366j5ujFKR
Luneth looked around. She saw Kairo with the knife in his hands. She quickly wrapped Lunar in a blanket and picked her up.7Please respect copyright.PENANAVLnO9d6oEP
She ran towards the door, Lunar sleeping in her arms. “Mother… Will you come?” she asked before stepping out of the room. Selene smiled at her and nodded.7Please respect copyright.PENANAn6lOsJ7aE6
Luneth sighed in relief and rushed out of the house. It was burning even more every passing second…7Please respect copyright.PENANA6Vcyhz0x2J
Luneth’s bare feet became red because of the cold and the snow underneath her. Her body was shivering, but she had to go… As far as possible.7Please respect copyright.PENANAFNCpJvkpor
Selene looked at Kairo. His hood covered his face, but she knew it was him. “Why are you doing this..?” she asked, a burning rage in her eyes.7Please respect copyright.PENANAtX835MUvPb
He stayed silent. He walked towards her and slashed across her ankle, leaving a deep cut. 7Please respect copyright.PENANAKXGBSdfjVg
Selene screamed out of pain. He turned away and was about to leave… Selene grabs his legs and clutches onto it tightly.7Please respect copyright.PENANAKtLepkRdE3
“I’m not going to let you get closer to them…” she whispered, blood leaking from her mouth.7Please respect copyright.PENANAD0M9rsr2bc
Kairo kicked her in the stomach with his heel. She let go of him… Selene laid on the ground as Kairo left the house.7Please respect copyright.PENANANfBA5gekUD
Selene crawled towards the front door. She opened a drawer and searched for a gun. Kairo followed the small footsteps printed on the snow. 7Please respect copyright.PENANAuxp3vZH8lJ
She found it and left the house, still crawling, still bleeding. But she knew… She would go into the last depth of Hell for Luneth and Lunar. 7Please respect copyright.PENANAEtFdL8VwU9
Not after long, Kairo spotted Luneth in the distance. She put Lunar against a tree. Kairo approached her.7Please respect copyright.PENANATE0utOmVGa
“You can’t run away… Your life was planned out ever since you were born…” he whispered, a sadistic smile on his face.7Please respect copyright.PENANAnm4e3zhNqs
Luneth has a look of concern on her face. She takes a few steps back, but bumps into the tree.7Please respect copyright.PENANAkHhyZlxHYb
Without a second thought, she picks Lunar up and enters a dark alley. She pressed her back against the wall, hoping somehow he wouldn’t find her.7Please respect copyright.PENANAOAXgWfKJ7h
Footsteps were heard. The soft sound of shoes stepping on snow… It was comforting, but scary at the same time. 7Please respect copyright.PENANAzMLd0ikTMy
Luneth decided to continue walking… She saw a small storage room made out of wood. She opened the old doors and put Lunar in it.7Please respect copyright.PENANAsi8KS2Wg0f
She closed it afterwards and left Lunar there. She runs back into the alley. “If I can’t survive… at least Lunar has to… Survive…” Luneth whispered to herself.7Please respect copyright.PENANAE8IwXWQbGL
After a few moments, the footsteps faded. Luneth looked to her left and right before walking. Her footsteps echoed in the narrow alley.7Please respect copyright.PENANABEqszlgVh8
Luneth kept an eye on the storage room where Lunar was in. The door was open a bit and she saw Lunar’s blue eyes looking at her.7Please respect copyright.PENANAzuqj3tZ5SK
Suddenly, there was a dim light… Somewhere around the corner, someone was waiting there… For something, or someone.7Please respect copyright.PENANAgxak2ODoR9
A man starts chuckling. His voice was rough and deep. Footsteps were closer… Luneth holds her breath in and crouches, afraid to be seen.7Please respect copyright.PENANArhjiPJIh5F
When she looks up, she sees Kairo standing next to her. He still had a knife in his hand…7Please respect copyright.PENANAcBdqRDCNsL
Luneth had a lump in her throat. Her heartbeat was louder than ever. She stared at Kairo with her eyes wide open.7Please respect copyright.PENANAhZhgPrpchy
Kairo smiled. “Where’s the little girl?” he asked, grabbing Luneth’s wrist brutally.7Please respect copyright.PENANA1eThzAP8UD
Luneth shook her head. “I-... I’m not telling you!” she yelled, somehow more confident than scared.7Please respect copyright.PENANAGHE0Y34P14
Kairo rolls his eyes. “Well… In the end… I’m finding her,” he says. Without hesitation, he severed Luneth’s neck with a quick, clean slice.7Please respect copyright.PENANAhKmMCIRsYr
Her head fell on the ground and rolled across the ground… Her lifeless eyes stared at the wall.7Please respect copyright.PENANAPM3GsdwhTx
It stopped rolling in front of Selene. She sat there, looking at Luneth’s head. She pulled out the gun from her pocket and pointed it at Kairo.7Please respect copyright.PENANA1g1B4scN0E
“In the end… We die together,” she said, smiling. Her index finger was on the trigger.7Please respect copyright.PENANAH7txD3AzhJ
Kairo scowls. “You’re dying first!” he yelled, rushing at her. He held the blade firmly in his hand.7Please respect copyright.PENANAUKCA94Jr1P
He stabbed Selene in her chest… Blood oozed out of the wound like a river. Selene coughs as blood leaks from her mouth.7Please respect copyright.PENANAUYkf85enfy
She presses the front of the gun on Kairo’s heart and pulls the trigger… “BANG” the sound was heard before it became silent.7Please respect copyright.PENANAz0OedjMnnZ
Selene felt Kairo’s pulse disappearing as his head leaned on her shoulder. His body got lighter…7Please respect copyright.PENANAm5qvDeo51z
Selene pushes Kairo off herself and crawls to the shelter. She could see the footsteps that Luneth left, so she knew Lunar was hidden.
She opened the tiny room and looked into it. Lunar was sitting on the ground, shivering because of the cold. Selene smiled.7Please respect copyright.PENANAGabSGjtIis
“I want you to know… No matter what… I’m always with you, my daughter…” Selene whispered, wrapping her arms around Lunar before resting her chin on Lunar’s head. A tear trickled down Selene’s cheek.7Please respect copyright.PENANAcrZyMSYFeM
As Selene’s presence faded, Lunar just stared at her. She was clueless. She didn’t understand what was happening.7Please respect copyright.PENANAJtnFxE1nOX
After hours, sirens approached. Closer and closer, until a tall figure kicked the door open.7Please respect copyright.PENANAx8XQeLXOE3
A man with long black hair and grey eyes. Lunar looked up at him as he entered. She was still in Selene’s arms…7Please respect copyright.PENANAWDe6TtlkFq
The man crouches beside her and lays Selene’s body on the ground gently. Another man enters the room and takes Lunar. 7Please respect copyright.PENANAH64NdgkqPJ
When she looks to the right, she sees Luneth’s head. Kairo’s lifeless body. Dead people.7Please respect copyright.PENANAlWPs2UrhSk
Somehow, she still felt their presence there. Dark shadows in the corners of the alley. A bloody knife in someone’s hand… A person who was still alive.
