All my life I had been told that God is the only God but at this point I was starting to believe in the Greek myths, anything but God because when I looked down I saw the Devil, I saw Satan, Zeus brother. I looked again and he was gone, but at that point I suddenly noticed Ghouls, coming from the left, coming from the right, every where, I was glad I wasn’t down there, but I also wished I wasn’t up here.
The day I arrived I learned the main hallway was the only way out and even then I had heard that that the bus was gone,
My only choice was to jump and make a run for the doors and keep running. I jumped over the railing, it didn’t matter to me how long the jump was it was the quick way down, but the next thing I knew I was standing above the ground, I was standing on a solid ground, above the ghouls, at the same height I had been before.
Panicking I looked around to see who was playing this trick on me, but there was no one in sight, that’s when I saw him at the other side, leaning on the railing.
He was smirking at me, his red eyes glowing like fire he suddenly jumped over the railing towards me and before I could say anything he was so close to me, my words were lost.
“Kaori I don’t want you committing suicide now,’ he said leaning over so he was at my height, I just glared at him, “I would rather then seeing you again,” I said, my left foot suddenly fell right through the invisible floor, I feel over landing on the invisible floor while I could see my left foot now on the other side.
“Now, now my little Kaori, you’ll have to be a little a nicer and then I won’t do that again,” he mocked now kneeling down, “what do you want?’ I asked still glaring at him his face seemed to lighten up to my question. “Well Kaori, I personally want you, but the real question would be what do you really want?’ ‘I want to know who you are and I want to know why the hell you’re doing this,” I practically demanded.
“Okay well first my real name is Alsias, and as your sad dead friend may have already classified, I am already dead,” the next thing I knew a dark red long red cape appeared on him, and as he turned, he was now a she. “I am Alias, and I’m not doing this, I just wanted you that is all, the rest is Lizel's and Ricky’s doing,” she purred.
I had been dumb folded, after finding out this was the woman in my dream and my ‘new’ friend was now dead, I didn’t know what to say.
“This is my offer, come with me, join me or you can return to your life before,” she said now caressing my face as I still lay on the glass from falling.
I had barely known her, and if I went with her I would give up my life as a mortal, yet if I didn’t go with her then I could live my life with out knowing what would happen if I did go with her.
“If I leave what will I miss?’ I ask she smiles at me “when you were little, you met a little girl, she tried to kiss you at the park and then when your parents found out they gave you a lecture about kissing other girls, you come with me, you will be free from what your society expects from you, you will be free from any restraint.”
She was right, I was being given a chance to actually be myself even if I wasn’t sure if she was telling the truth, my parents always told me off for being loud, and that my ideas were stupid, even my friends at my normal school told me I was a rich snob.
I had been lost in my thought I had not noticed I was now standing, she was directly in front of me, “what happened to Lola?’ I asked ‘she escaped, the next town is miles away, she might live,” she replied then a smirk appeared on her lips “so do you want to come with me?’ she asked again and I nodded, I wanted to go with her as long as I knew Lola was okay then I wanted to go.
I felt my body being pressed up against Alsias, her hand holding my waist, I could feel my arms rap around her neck as our lips touched, I felt a burning desire fill my body, I was tangling with death and I loved it.
