Chapter 10
Strange Man
Shiro looked atm Luis his eyes sparked with fear, Shiro could have left Luis, but he felt something how Luis could be useful. A devilish grin shined on his face but faded right after.
Grabbing out a hand toward him Luis looked surprised by his doings, "Good fight," Shiro was smiling, Luis hatred toward Shiro slowly went away. Later in a hallway two figures walking, one was taller having dark brown curly hair, the tips being red, dark brown eyes that show leadership. Next to him a man with eyes greener than trees and dark blue hair. Both Luis and Shiro couldn't stop laughing.
Walking to the cafeteria, it was big, being two stories, coffee-colored brown floors, white walls, many dark brown tables and chairs scattered around the area, to the right side was a massive window below it multiple sliding doors that lead to the balcony, having many tables and chairs, the view was amazing. In the middle of the area a TV screen projecting the many different food options, to the left was the sliver-colored kitchen many chiefs working tirelessly. While walking toward the kitchen everyone shot glances at the both of them, nobody ever saw Luis with a commoner, especially the one he lost too, but he didn't seem to care, both Shiro and Luis clicked felt like they been best friends for years.
Shiro ordered the expensive sandwich, tears already falling from his face. Luis on the other hand had the richest food there was, a whole lobster, the smell alone filled the room. Shiro was surprised to see such a meal, he never had the opportunity to eat fancy food growing up, sticking with cereal or the cheapest fast food even going days without eating.
Shiro looked at his bland sandwich, it looked depressing, sitting down Shiro noticed all the stares brushing them off he, took a bite out of the sandwich the meat was bitter, in the matter of fact it was cold Shiro was disappointed, and the bread was hot. He felt unconformable with the mix, looking at the chief, he was glaring at Shiro with a grin. Oh, that's right Shiro thought being a commoner he didn't have respect in the slightest.
Luis took a bite out of his lobster, "I'm full you want some?" Luis patting his stomach, Shiro was itching to hear those words, without a second thought he grabbed the plate, devouring the whole lobster in seconds. Luis was surprised to see such an animal "I guess you were hungry," licking the plate shiny clean Shiro looks at Luis, "Obviously I'm broke I never have this type of food," Shiro said with a smile on his face, Luis laughed.
Shiro was stuffed, while finishing up, a girl greeted them it was Kaela, she sat down next to him, both of them started chatting, Luis had to leave soon after Kaela had to go, alone Shiro decided to head out, walking back to his dorm Shiro is minding his own business the words, "useless," rang in his ear the voice sounded commanding.
Quickly looking around nobody was there, Shiro felt a slight pain in his head. That wasn't his god speaking he thought. Grabbing his head with one hand Shiro ran past everyone shoving, Aurelia sees him running at full speed, Shiro speed was getting faster, his vision getting blurrier, the gold-plated name on the doors began to be unreadable.
Finally reaching his dorm, Shiro slams it open. Running into the bathroom, looking at the toilet he began to throw up uncontrollably tearing coming out of his eyes, it felt like he was throwing up needles. Once he was done the sharp pain, still continued slowly getting worse.
The red rips on his hair began to grow and shine even more now halfway, touching his hair it began to burn, quickly putting his hand away, Shiro started to sweat, his face was paler than the white room.
Deep bags under them, he seemed like he hasn't eaten in years, flopping onto the bathroom floor Shiro was confused, shocked, surprised, every negative emotion was conflicted onto him.
Overtime the pain in his head became bearable, getting up Shiro almost looked dead. Thinking it was over Shiro was about to leave the bathroom, touching the handle his right wrist started to burn, grabbing his wrist. It felt like it was going to fall off, tears forming from his eyes, Shiro felt his consciousness slowly slipping away.
Waking up to the sound of a door being banged on "Shiro!" Laying on the floor Shiro body was sore, still a little dizzy he gets up, "Hold on!" Shiro looks at himself in the mirror his curly hair was messed up for staying on the floor for so long, now the red tips being even longer than they were before, and brighter.
Drool was going down his face, washing up he looks down at his arm, it was strange at his wrist was black line going all around his wrist, like a wristband, Shiro tried washing it off, but it didn't, it still stayed the same black obsidian.
Shiro was lost but couldn't focus on that, opening the door Aeris was waiting there patiently "What happened, you been in there for hours!" Her face full of worry, Shiro closed his eyes and smiled "I don't know I think I had food poisoning."
Aeris looked at his wrist, her eyes widen and her face paled, not even being able to say words without stuttering she said "w-why do you have t-t-that please tell me its marker." Shiro looked down at his wrist, his face brightens "OH yeah it just appeared it hurt like hell though!"
Aeris without second thought grabbed his arm looking at the black line "HOW DID YOU GET CURSED!"
Shiro was surprised, "Cursed?" "YES, A GOD CURSED YOU!" Shiro didn't know what words to say.
Cursed? How what did I do Shiro thought, thinking about the voice in his head, Aeris face was full of sweat worried for Shiro, she took his wrist and sat him on her bed.
"Tomorrow, we'll take you to Myrrh he can explain this more then I can." Aeris already calmed herself down, Shiro was still stunned.
In a bright blue room stands two men, the room floor was reflective, everywhere endless amounts of bubbles filled the room, one person in the room was a small boy, his blue hair, blue eyes, green overalls with a blue shirt under.
Sitting on the bubble he looks at the strange man that appeared in his realm. He was injured, his body had multiple big holes all over him, one arm was almost coming off, his left eye was dark and looked overall weird. The man was pale the lower part of his jaw exposed blood oozing from it, wearing the remains of a tunic, ruined chains going all over his body, his hair was long and seemed like it had a life of its own, he had black eyes, or red.
The strange man spoke an evil grin on his face "So this is an inner realm."
