DESTRUCT MYSTERY

"He-here's the m-map he made, lo-lord Genocide,"

the fledgeling knight stuttered and gave a newly created map to Genocide. As soon as Genocide grabbed it, the knight fled in an instant such as he was terrified newbie.

Thereon, Thelamia pouted,

"Geez, Geno! You didn't have to scare him!"

Genocide just denied,

"Hey I did nothing yet!"

While Genocide was scanning the detailed map of the interconnecting ruins, Julieth suggested to them that they should just go. Since, Destruct invited them for a reason.

Genocide scratched the back of his head and just trusted his mother's instincts.

Later on, both Genocide and Thelamia hitched on the motorbike and departed the walls of Azuria. Thelamia noticed that they didn't take the rocky road of levitatng boulders. Instead, her eyes took witness that they were already traversing the flat surface.

Thereon, she was puzzled,

"Huh? Where are those floating rocks?"

Genocide tipped his hat,

"Since the kingdom Azuria doesn't want to prove their superiority anymore, the kingdom returned back to the lands of humility. Well, that's what my mom told me that evening."

Thelamia made a smile,

"So the floating magical crysalis won't be used anymore huh?"

Genocide grinned,

"Oh no my dear Thamy...those magical levitation crysalis will be used for the benefit of the many. I heard, flying magic automobiles and stuffs."

Thelamia's eyes sparkled,

"WAIT! FLYING CARS?!"

Genocide sighed,

"Who knows, and what's a car anyway?"

Not much soon, they had arrived at the entrance of their destination. They set on foot and trekked the cave of mystery. When Thelamia looked at the crevices and stalacites of the cave, she was shookt,

"Wow! A firefefly cave! Who knew these ruins turned into something enchanting!"

Genocide observed that there were dancing wisps of luminous lights wandering around the mystical cave. They weren't hostile to the two, but Genocide was feeling chills from those endless wanderers,

"Wisps huh..."

As they followed Destruct's map, they had already arrived at their destination sooner than expected. Their eyes bear witness that Destruct and Fae were standing in front of a glorious altar. An altar that had the heavenly pedestal with a floating shard of gold.

Destruct greeted Thelamia and Genocide with a warm welcome,

"Finally, you two are here now. Now isn't this artifact behind us quite fascinating?"

Genocide just scratched the back of his head,

"Yeah, it sure is."

Destruct turned around and caressed Fae's shoulder,

"Now Fae, do as you always do."

Fae brought out a broken sphere of radiance. The next moment, the shard magnetized itself to the sphere as it was the final piece of the puzzle.

Thelamia jumped with glee,

"Yay! Your thingy is now complete Fae!"

Genocide tipped his hat,

"I guess my brother has been doing a strange scavenger hunt too."

Destruct made a charming smile,

"I'm sure you're happy now milady Fae. As your precious artifact is now complete."

Though, Destruct noticed that Fae just kept on staring at the sphere with a grin such as she had an obsession,

"Fae? Is something wrong?"

In an instant, Fae gave Destruct a kiss of the heavens,

"I'm sorry, milord..."

After the angelic kiss, Destruct felt that his whole body was impaled by thousands of deadly roses. When he looked at his body, several golden blades had penetrated through his pale flesh, letting death be only his last resort. Destruct laid eyes on Fae one last time,

"Wha-what's going on...F-Fae?"

Fae just let out a tear of true sadness,

"So long...master, may we meet again in heavens abov."

Not much soon, her crying eyes perceived that the bloodied corpse of Destruct was now in front of her.

Suddenly, her mask of a devious schemer emerged,

"Not really...since, I have no use for you anymore."

Both Thelamia and Genocide were just filled with shock,

"Fae?"

Fae gave them a grin of a sinister queen. There after, she laughed as she was a deranged maiden from the secluded darkness,

"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

Her laugh reverberberated through the walls, such as she was a banshee who was unleashed from the depths.

Though, Genocide still tried to reason with her,

"Fae? Could you stop laughing, you're freaking us out."

Fae just shoved her hand of an almighty entity,

"SILENCE MORTAL!"

Thelamia and Genocide just felt the surge of intense gravity anchoring down their bodies into immobility. They tried to get up, yet Fae's divine power aura was too intense for them. Fae grinned with a heavenly voice of terrifying chaos,

"FEEL THE POWER OF A RETURNING GODDESS!"

The only thing Genocide and Thelamia could do was to hear witness of Fae's ascension from the ground.

Not much soon, Fae's ashblonde hair was dyed in dovine gold that could blind the weak mortals. Her face of pureness and humility was totally gone. Instead, she had a maskara who could smite terror to anyone with her intimidating beauty of a Goddess. Genocide took witness that she was dressed in a gown clad in golden shards of glorious desperation. Lastly, Thelamia saw that the nefarious Fae had golden discs of fate.

Fae looked down at Thelamia,

"Do you still remember me? JUNIOR GODDESS THELAMIA?!"

In a snap, Thelamia remembered something when she saw Fae's drastic change,

"Is that you?! Senior! Ancient Goddess Faraia?!"

Fae smirked. Then, she snapped her fingers and the gravity turned mute, turning Genocide and Thelamia to move freely. She flipped her fabulous hair,

"It's been a while, my Junior Thelamia."

Genocide tried to speak, but he just hesitated as he was in front of a terrifying Goddess. Though, Thelamia just opened up a conversation casually,

"Ummmm...could you tell me why you're here? Me and Julieth are the ones managing Athlus now, do you remember? Unless you wanted to go on a world vacation in our world."

Faraia just shut her eyes,

"You still don't know anything huh? My junior? You are truly a NAIVE GODDESS. And that is why..."

Faraia pointed at Thelamia,

"I'm going to reclaim it from you!"

Thelamia was just utterly puzzled,

"Reclaim?"

Faraia descended and walked along the ruined stage. Then, she expressed her swirling emtions, as she was a true decaimer on the stage,

"All of the catastrophic events, the huge war,.slavery that had happened, even that TAMPERED VACATION TICKET had all been ORCHESTRATED BY ME! Just to destroy you and your world, my junior."

Then, she made a grandiose pose of a diva-like doomsayer,

"WHERE I SHALL REIGN SUPREME WHEN THIS WORLD IS BORN ANEW!"

Thelamia touched her lips as she recalled in her thoughts,

"Oh yea! I forgot, BORACREA beach resort is very strict with fake tickets. And the punishment is to let anyone to fall asleep for twenty years! Yea...no wonder...Wait..."

Then, she remembered something important in her thoughts,

"SHE PLANNED THIS FROM THE START?!"

Afterwards, Fae continued her poetic phrases of destruction,

"Even my wretched time being a slave with this PUTRID HERO WANNABE DESTRUCT, it was all acting just to destroy you, my junior."

She praised herself as she was an insane valkyrie,

"Ain't I such a great actress and director?"

Thelamia was just saddened like a heartbroken friend,

"I thought you were my friend...sister senior."

Faraia reached her temper,

"DON'T YOU DARE USE THAT CUTESY DISGUSTNG TERM ON ME! You NAIVE GODDESS who likes to laze around!"

Faraia aimed her floating swords at Thelamia,

"I DON'T EVEN WANT TO BE FRIENDS WITH YOU!"

There after, she released her command and the swords tried to strike Thelamia. In an instant, Genocide used his quick feet of the shadows and pushed Thelamia away from her doom.

Only a cloud of dust was the only thing, Faraia could see afterwards.

When the dust fog ceased, she saw Genocide had dodged the impetus of judgement as well. Thelamia tried to stand up, but her sadness eroded her body's primal functions,

"Why senior...why..."

Faraia used her terrifying powers of gravity and pushed Thelamia down into the hard ground.

"WHY SENIOOORRR!!"

Genocide steeled himself and released his wrath at Faraia,

"Tell me Ancient Goddess Faraia, no...FAE! Is it all just acting? Even our HAPPY TIMES TOGETHER?"

Faraia sighed,

"Like I said, it was all acting, but..."

She appeared in front of him and embraced his toned body as she was an alluring siren,

"My time with you wasn't acting my dear HERO and savior Genocide."

Then, she continued to dance around him as she was a tempting serpent-woman of desires,

"Rather, my feelings for you were real. From the bottom of my Goddess heart."

Genocide retured with a grin close to Faraia's face,

"So, do you still love me?"

When Thelamia heard those words from her companion, she felt a sudden chill of abyss from her delicate heart,

"This feeling. Geno?"

Faraia responded back to him with a smile of a divine maiden,

"Yes, I really do my hero. You were the only one who treated me very nicely, compared to what I've experienced from the others."

Genocide's vampire ears clapped,

"That's what I wanted to hear."

He turned around and pointed his weapon of hellfire at Thelamia,

"Sorry Thamy, but I won't be on your side anymore. You said you hated my whole existence and preffered Destruct before. Right?

He tipped his hat with a grin of a devil,

"Besides...Fae, or should I say Goddess Faraia is hotter and sexier than you."

Faraia was satisfied of Genocide's sudden compliments, turning her to be absorbed in her thoughts,

"I'm truly sure this hero wants a reward after this."

Thelamia just fell down to her knees as she had losf everything,

"This can't be real...is this a nightmare?"

Faraia just made a proud call,

"NOW LET THE CHANGE OF FATE BEGIN!"
