moonlight (iii)

He should stop this! he had to ... somehow! ..but no one had ever altered the power of the moon.. although no one ever tried since since they could remember... Melissa had lived centuries so the goddess hasn't been changed... and thus couldn't remember anything from the previous goddesses...no one ever tried to stop the moon's power.....it's emblem was never questioned...but has to now...it was supposed to increase her power... refresh her of the things she'd lost... strengthen her ring .... only the ring wasn't there ...'the ring wasn't there ' Allen echoed this phrase...he turned around swiftly as if to find the ring on the floor...what should he do?! he'd made a wrong move ones again.... he wanted to heal her...to heal the land...to make her whole...to bring her back fully...but since she woke up rejuvenated....he'd forgotten that she wasn't with her ring...all he wanted was to fully refresh her memory and thus he cooked up this plan without checking odds ...'fuck Allen' he pinched the muscle between his brows as he cursed under his breath....

"Melissa...!? " he called out to her as if asking her what he should do but that move was futile....how could she hear him?! how could she respond?! ...he finally acknowledged that he was nothing without her ...he was always desperate that he didn't think about the negatives of his strategies....no wonder he always needed her ..to check the negatives and make sure it was fine....he suddenly felt his heart break in two equal halves...she was his other half... but out of reach...

he didn't think too much anymore...he stretched out his hands and started chanting... he floated into the air just right in front of her but didn't go close....his eyes turned greenish like the sea weed.....all he wanted was to save her from the Savage moon... but as he stretched his hands observing her every action and reaction... before he could balance

BLAST!!!! BLAST!!! BLAST!!!

came in the rush of Melissa's attack ... sending silvery magic flames at him... like he was an intruder....if he could remember clearly.....those attacks where defenses against an intruder in lilies...he fell to the silver silk soil ,..he was immobilized...that was supposed to be the death of him ..but he was a lord. .the lord supreme... higher than all the deities ...he was their giver of gifts...power ...magic...so he possessed all..but Melissa was the life giver....she floated towards him....her silver eyes staring at him but too little too soon...she recognized him and fell...

the immobilized Allen was yet so quick enough to catch her in his arms and cuddled her in his embrace...he could see the look in everyone's eyes.... disappointed yet again...the atmosphere was becoming heavy as he too was exuding such dark hatred to the moon...he disappeared and appeared again in her room and laid her to bed.

He stared at her...as she seemed to be sleeping peacefully and her chest moving up and down slowly in the rhythm of her breath...he sighed... releaved she was okay...but he saw himself as stupid one time again. He turned to leave but halted in his tracks as he thought he'd seen her fingers move....his head immediately snapped backwards to make sure this wasn't an illusion and he was right...this was no illusion

"the moon is calling out to me..."Melissa said as she blinked her thick brown lashes open...her eyes were warm ...but weak...she turned to lay on her side staring at the statue like Lord in front of her. Allen felt the urge to squeeze her into his soul and protect her...care for her but he didn't want to make things worse...he knew Melissa knew nothing about his feelings for her... and he wasn't planning on scaring her away ...he wasn't going to tell her until everything is fine again.

He moved gracefully towards the bed and sank into it .. cupping her hands with his...her hands were cold as ice... he wanted to hug her... cuddle her... keep her warm ...but he couldn't do all these..

"what is it saying?" he found himself asking...as cool and calm as the stream was his voice

"I failed lilies...I'm no fit to be a goddess...I've been told to lay down my damsel title and be a mere mermaid..."she cried...her hot tears streamed down her eyes...

'no! no! no! what have I done? I'm certainly the death of her?!' Allen thought... his brows knitting into a thick knot....he'd hurt her gravely one last time he thought... thinking he was helping her...he blasted her in the desert... thinking he was helping her....he appeared in her dreams teaching her things she already knew ... thinking he was helping her...he'd brought her under the full moon. His desperation and plots had failed and reigned negative again.... over and over again...what had he done?!

He immediately rose to his feet upon hearing this and he looked away...it was him that deserves to be punished!...it was him who had been reckless all along!...it was him who didn't deserve the title of being lord supreme.!...of being a god! it was him! why was the moon so cruel not to see who's fault this is?! was he supposed to sit down and do nothing all along? was he supposed to not help? and now he already did and messed things up! was the moon ignorant to whom had caused the plight?!
