Blue Blur

(Crater's outer circumference - Olivia's P.O.V)

Something didn't feel right. Even though Sedem managed to get into that dome in the middle, I couldn't help but feel an extremely odd churning in my stomach.

Goosepumps spread all over my skin as this feeling only got stronger. It was as if someone with an incredible amount of malice was lurking in the area.

The storm wasn't making anything better either since making out objects at a distance was quite difficult at that moment.

My grip on the legendary blade tightened as the thought of both Shyza and Sedem falling into grave danger flashed across my mind.

That was when I noticed a familiar presence not too far away.

My eyes strolled away from the ruins and farther to my left. A vague silhouette of a person could be seen but I couldn't flesh it out.

"Who's there?", my shaky voice barely made any effect in the harsh snow storm.

The leader of the wolf clan walked over to me, "Is something wrong?"

I moved a bit farther away from him before answering, "N- No. It's nothing. I thought I saw something."

He lifted an eyebrow with slight doubt evident in his eyes. Without talking much, he returned to his former position beside Eterna. Both of them spoke about storing energy in case a next wave of missiles were to strike, but that was the least of my concerns.

I was scared however something kept pushing me to approach that figure in the snowy dark. Hesitant, I walked away from the duo and stopped the moment I could see a little bit of the figure's features. It was a male.

My eyes squinted in attempt to gain full view of this person until I finally did!

But then... fear threw my body into an intense shudder as my eyes came into contact with his.

"S- Seksul..."

Within the blink of an eye, he suddenly appeared a few inches away from my face. He covered my mouth with his blood-stained hand.

I- I was locked. Trapped by the chains that came from that glare of his. His eyes glowed an eerie blue colour as he slowly picked up the moon sword from my grasp.

"Don't let something as simple as this kill you", he whispered and then moved towards the edge of the crater.

W- What did he mean by that!?

My eyes widened after I fell to my knees instinctively.

I was afraid... again.

This fear could've killed me. The fact that I was even alive was a miracle on its own.

Dependency

I only knew how to depend on others. What was I even good for?

Shaking, I turned towards Seksulfur as his body motioned into a mesmerising fall.

A streak of blue aura then blasted over his entire body while he raced down the slope and towards the ruins.

(Moon Realm - Dzinu's P.O.V)

Darkness loomed over the entire expanse of the space within my physical form. Silence cloaked the entire body of water as the only source of light being the full blue moon seemed to stare down at the realm with an awkward sense of menace.

I stood at the entrance to the moon shrine, looking up at the darkness.

Zero energy

There was absolutely no energy within the realm and the result was often the darkness that currently loomed.

It was odd since I never experienced something like that before. Ever since my aura and Sek's began to merge, certain things also began to change within the realm.

That wolf to begin with...

"Having only the ability to see my surroundings alone doesn't really help", I sighed as I walked back into the shrine.

A complete emptiness was what one would describe the interior as. The only thing that existed was the awkward presence that would link me to the physical world whenever I meditated.

I still kept my 16-year old form in the realm but looking at my reflection in the water only remindede of a painful past.

Why did I have to have the same form anyways?

Defeats the whole reincarnation thing.

Solemnly, I sat in the centre of the shrine and closed my eyes. Faint traces of light could be seen even with my eyes closed and within seconds, my vision switched to the area surrounding me.

I was...

I was in Sek's hands!?!?

The last time I remembered, Olivia had me tight in her grip!

An expression of seriousness ran across my face as I stared at the faint traces of madness in his eyes.

He seemed to be speeding towards a certain place.

I extended my vision to a 5 metre radius and was met with quite a tensed sight ahead.

Sedem was in trouble! Apparently, a deadly lady had him in her grip and it wasn't looking good at all!

It was rather unfortunate that the only thing I could do was think and see! If Sek were to release my inner form, my chances of gaining the energy to speak would be high!

Sek finally reached the area where he was headed and paused. A glare of rage pierced through the air as she stared the lady down.

It seemed as if he knew her.

Strange thing though... was the fact that she didn't speak at all! Not even a single word! Yet it seemed as if they were communicating!

Was there somekind of telepathic communication going on?

"Sek!", Sedem struggled in the lady's grip. "She's a psychic. She'll use your mind to her advantage!"

Sek smirked, "I know that."

"Haaaaah!??", a look of pure confusion flashed across Sedem's face. "You mean you've already met her!?"

"Yes, I have", Sek placed his palm on my hilt. "I'll kill her and get us out."

Sek's aura burst into an uncontrollable surge the instant he pulled out my majestic inner form! Sek's energy was split in half, with a portion flowing into me.

Finally!

"Dzinu! Sorry to keep you waiting!", Sek grinned.

"Don't worry about it", my voice resounded. "A few things hit both of us unaware anyways"

With both our minds linked through sync, we acted as one body.

(In as much as I'd love to spar with you, I won't be your opponent today)

A feminine voice echoed within my mind.

Was that the lady's voice!?

"This is your first time meeting her", Sek muttered. "I'd love to explain but now's not the time."

My assertive voice spoke up, "I agree."

The lady smirked as she dropped Sedem on the ground.

Just then, an incredible wave of bloodlust crippled the air.

There was someone else nearby.

"The huntress returns", a menacing voice fell upon us from above.

It was another lady! She stood at the very top of the glass structure and looked down at us through a hole in the glass.

There was a strange feeling that surrounded her. It was as if she was an intoxicating queen staring down her subordinates.

She was donned in a uniform similar to the other lady. The only difference were the black and blue colours. Her face was hidden in a horrifying smile-like mask that had strange patterns on its surface.

"Tch! Damn it! I thought I dealt with that crazy hunter lady!", Sek moved back. "My instincts are in a rage!"

The hunter lady swayed into an elegant fall, activating a metal-looking staff from nowhere!

*Klang!!*

Vibrations rang all over the moon realm as the impact shot out chucks of metal from beneath Sek's feet.

"S- She's stronger than before", Sek stammered as he struggled heavily to save his body from being crushed!

(Well then)

The voice of the other lady sounded again as the glass dome shattered into a million pieces. A strange ship descended, ejecting a group of small bots that approached a tube behind her.

It seemed as if someone was in there.

Shyza

It was Shyza!

(I'll be leaving early)

The voice taunted evilly as the lady entered the ship.

"D- Damn it", Sedem tried to stand up but he was completely weakened.

Sek broke free from the hunter lady's attack and lunged back at a reasonable distance.

"This won't be easy", his eyes darkened.

The hunter lady's glare glowed from within the thin slits in the mask's eyes, "You won't be going anywhere, prey."
