Everything is a lie

"Daddy! your home!" screamed a six-year-old boy with extremely curly black afro hair and grey eyes as he ran to his father with an innocent, happy smile plastered all over his face.

Autry has never had it easy, but at least his 'father' was always there for him, but not every day does everyone comes home safe.

"Autry, my boy, so you didn't tell anyone about our little secret, right?" said an older man with dreads as he bent down to pick up his 'son' and gave him a giant hug.

"No, daddy! I promise!" said younger Autry as he gave his dad a wide smile

"Good,('sigh')... good now, Autry, what I want you to do is to go get your teddy and our Anemone book, is that alright?" said Autry's father giving his son a toothy grin before putting down Autry and standing up to close the door not before taking a cautious look outside.

*Bang*

"Ok, daddy," said Autry as he excitedly ran down the hallway

The man's face instantly hardened when his 'son' turned around. Standing still, he silently watched the little boy run off.

"Autry Gregson... (haaa~) only if I could tell you... things would be much easier." The man said, scrunching his eyebrows as he reminisced a particular memory of the past.

*__*__*__*__*__*__*

Our little boy Autry exited his flat with his 'father' after collecting a few items and placing them in a giant rucksack.

It was a cold Thursday night as Autry, and his father walked down Hallberg street, passing a few buildings until they reached the bus stop.

"Dang it, why won't it go up!" said Autry as he furiously pulled his jacket zipper.

'Zip'

"Yes! it finally went up!" said Autry in a childish glee as he'd finally managed to get his jacket zipped up as the jacket's cloth was caught between the zipper and the plastic.

'Zoom'

'Zoom'

Roared a few cars as they passed the father and son sitting under cover of Hallberg streets bus stop.

"Whoa! dad, look at that car. It looks like a dragon!" said Autry as he curiously watched a car with a Dragon eating a serpent painted on its pass by, zooming off into the Mysterious Jaws of midnights domain.

"Roar! I want to be a dragon dad! and fly high in the sky and... a-"

"Whoa, calm down, my boy, so you wanna be a dragon?" said Autry's 'father,' cutting him off and passing six-year-old Autry with a bright smile.

"Yeah, dad, I wanna breathe fire, and I wanna become the king of the sky and fly! So I can touch the clouds," said Autry, excited at the prospect of being a fire-breathing dragon. Stars glowed in the boy's innocent grey eyes as he heavily emphasized the word flying.

Autry as a kid constantly was bullied because of the color of his eyes, but Autry was an intelligent kid as he knew that he wasn't weird or a monster or the silver-eyed reaper (Though he liked the last bit). He knew that he was unique, just like mom and dad said.

"Why to be a king when you can be a god?" said Autry's father

"Huh?"

'Tap'

'Tap'

'Tap'

"Hello there, Mr. Dine."

"Swoosh!"

"Booom!"

"Or should I say... Autry Gregson," said a mysterious figure in a black and white suit with a black Dog mask covering his face, only revealing curly black hair and glowing golden eyes, as he dodged sudden Autry's attack.

"F*ck!" Screamed Autry's 'dad' in frustration as the other party dodged his attack, which destroyed the bus stop and the ground below, creating cracks within the earth.

"ROAR!"

A raging red dragon had suddenly interrupted their fight, roaring as it flew majestically in the sky. Suddenly, a black portal had formed under the dragon. From it came demonic creatures of hell screeching horrifically; the aura of absolute evil oozed out from the doorway, and from that portal came a Glowing white creature that held the figure of a woman. The beast, which looked so pure and holy, was surrounded by demons of darkness.

"ROAR"

The red dragon roared in absolute rage as it stared at the 'holy'—a beast that seemed so loving and peaceful, so... warm.

The dragon was disgusted. It hated what it was seeing, and the dragon knew something that the boy didn't.

The creatures of darkness rushed to the dragon, entirely consumed by blinding rage. Still, alas, they were no match for the dragon's raging flames, and in contrast to its dangerous look, the fire hadn't harmed anyone but the devilish creatures; the flames were not unbearable. On the contrary, the fire surprisingly felt kind and calm. They brought a sense of inner peace to all who felt its heat.

Autry was surprised he didn't understand what was going on and was expecting a battle but what he had just witnessed subverted his world views on what is right and wrong.

Autry didn't understand what he was witnessing, and to his surprise, he found himself alone, surrounded by dark light, which felt cold, with no man in a dog mask nor was his father. Father? He had a father?...

"Dad...."

"Dad? where is my daddy?"

"YOU! I WILL HAVE HIM; HE WILL BE MINE; THAT ANEMONE IS MINE!"

"No, and you know that you will never succeed for as long as we stay visualized."

"THEN I WILL MAKE YOU DISAPPEAR!"

"If I go, then you also go. Do you not realize that the anemone created us?"

"YES, I DO, BUT I HAVE SOMETHING YOU DON'T KNOW!"

"Very well, Grega. I'll see you soon. But, unfortunately, this 'world' is not 'real' enough for you and me."

"HE WILL BE MINE, MINE MINE MINE!"

"Goodbye, Grega..."

"HAHAHA...KUAHHAA DRACOS, I'LL SEE YOU AGAIN, MY LOVELY LIZARD!"

Suddenly, the word had crumbled into nothingness, a complete utter void of nothing.

(Authors note: Tbh I just said nothing because I'm too lazy to say the words infinite black void or something)

*__*__*__*__*__*__*

"A-Autry, My B-boy!" shouted a woman.

"Y-yes, mom!" said a young boy with Afro hair and bright silver eyes at age six as he jumped off his... 'bed.'

"Hey, my s-s-son, can you get Charles a bottle of water here?... please," said an older woman who seemed to be in her 20s with a gorgeous face enough to make many fat slobs of men send her hundreds of pounds to see her only fans.

{Oh, I had that weird dream again; sometimes I wonder why he has the same name as me, my daddy. Was he even my dad?}

"Ok, mommy, I'm sorry," said a little boy as he gave his wonderful mother a loving smile

"Good boy, I'll give you a reward when our guest has left. Is that alright with you?" said the charming woman with silky blonde hair and light brown eyes.

"Ahh, Claire, leave the kid. He's a good lad anyways. Ready for round 2?" said a man with Brown hair and chiseled jawline, perfect you could call him in every way, as he sat on the couch naked.

"Sure, Charles, my darling," said the woman as she took off her towel, revealing her body.
