196 Memories —–
Alice saw as Luna and her father killed two bandits out of a surge of strength caused by the adrenaline flowing through their veins as their heart was beating fast over the utter fear of death they had. The two constantly stabbed the bandits, as Luna realized she was being watched by her sister and her mother in utter horror…
She looked into her hand and noticed she was completely covered in blood, her entire face was also all bloodied, and her clothes were all bloodied as well.
Luna realized she looked like a monster, as she desperately tried to calm down her sister and her mother.
“E-Everything is going to be okay… Everything… F-Father!” cried Luna, as she touched her father and quickly brought him out of his berserk-like rage. The man woke up from his daze, as he looked at his entire body covered in blood.
“A-Ahh…! Aaaahh!” he muttered in fear, as Luna quickly dragged him out.
“We have to escape, snap out of it!!!” she cried.
“R-Right! Linda, Luna, dear, let’s go, to the forest, hurry!” cried their father, as he quickly walked to their side, but a sudden shadow emerged behind him in a second.
Without anyone realizing, a bandit had sneaked behind Luna’s father and with an axe, he hit her father’s head, quickly cracking his skull in an instant, as blood splattered all over his family, his eyes exploded out of its eye sockets, and he dropped dead without even giving a cry of pain.
…..
BUMP!
The face of an angered bandit behind him showed up, as he startled the trio of women…
“So you’re the bastards that killed two of us? You’re a fierce girl, I am going to have fun breaking you.” Said the man, holding Luna’s hand with a strong hand, but without realizing that she had a knife in her hand.
“F-Father… Fa… ther… Father…”
“He was so soft, he cracked like a fucking egg, GAHAHAHAHA!”
Luna looked at her mother and her sister, who were trembling in fear, they had kneeled in the ground, they suddenly felt weak, as if they couldn’t even walk anymore, they couldn’t even say a thing, they were fixated in the corpse of her father…
Everything was crumbling in front of her, and the only thing Luna had was a small, bloodied dagger in her free hand.
“Hmm, you smell like blood, you fucking bitch, hahaha- GAH?!”
Suddenly, the Bandit realized a dagger suddenly pierced his neck, as he vomited blood out of his mouth and looked with bloodied eyes at Luna below him, as he was several centimeters taller than her…
Her eyes were glowing with a red color, bloodshot red. Her face covered in blood and sweat, her hair was messy, and parts were stuck to her face due to the blood and the sweat. Her teeth were gritting angrily, as her eyebrows were furrowing furiously.
“You bastard…! YOU BASTAAAAARD! GRAAAAAA!!!”
Luna roared furiously, going completely berserk as she continued to stab the man’s neck, he tried to hit her or kill her with his hands, as he put his enormous hands around her neck and began to press with all his strength.
“Aaaaggggh…!”
Luna cried as she felt like Oxygen was running low, but the pain of having her neck almost about to crack was even more agonizing, however, the man in front of her was bleeding out intensively, and his eyes ultimately rolled out before she could die, falling over the floor.
“Hahh… Hahhh… M-Mom… S-Sis…”
Luna kneeled in the floor, gasping for air as she glanced at her mother and her sister suddenly being dragged away by bandits before she could even realize.
“LUNAAAAA!”
“SISTEEER!”
“E-Eeh?! Wait! No! Let them goooo!” she roared, trying to stand up and chase them down, only to feel a sharp pain in her left eye as something heavy hit it strongly, an arrow.
“A-Akh… Ungh… Grraaah…”
TUMP!
Her body fell over the floor, as Luna attempted to take out the arrow from her eye, but the agonizing pain, the exhaustion, and all of these things combined ended making her fall unconscious…
Darkness embraced her consciousness, as she realized that everything had crumbled apart. Her father was killed, her mother and her sister were taken away and probably going to be sold as slaves, and she… was about to die.
Alice looked at the sorrowful memories, this was when Sylph’s previous incarnation lost everything. This was… the turning point of her life, where she lost all the things in her life.
“Sylph…” she sighed.
The memories didn’t stopped there. There was still a small fragment left, a very small fragment that Alice looked at.
Luna’s eye suddenly opened, as the sharp pain of her other eye being pierced by an arrow was still there. Somehow, despite the pain, agony, and dizziness, she slowly sat down, glancing around, finding that it was already the morning of the next day.
The entire village was in ruins, and nothing was left except corpses and… her.
“Mom… Sister… F-Father…” she cried, looking at her father’s corpse in the ground near her.
She looked down in the grass, gritting her teeth, and at her bloodied hands… It was all over.
Everything in her life had been taken away from one day to another, without previous warning, without any sort of warning at all.
Everything… all of it…
She was left alone to die here. Her eye was going to continue being infected and she would eventually die agonizingly with a fever she was already having.
“Aghh… Ungh… Hahh…”
Luna began to cry. Her left eye cried tears of blood, while her right eye cried crystalline tears.
She gritted her teeth, thinking that everything was over. freewēbnoveℓ.com
Until suddenly, the shadow of someone covered the light from the sun slowly rising in the horizon.
Luna looked at that person, as she found a woman with short red hair, a large scar in her face, an eyepatch in her right eye, wearing black robes, tight black plants, and holding a knife in her hand.
She looked at this woman in silence, confused if she was going to get killed…
“If you want to live, stand up and follow me.” Said the woman, as she walked away.
Luna looked the woman slowly walk away for a few seconds. After that, she stood up and followed her.
