#Chapter2 A Line In The Snow
/"He used to be an angel, with two broken feathered wings,
Fell down from heaven crying, lost every single thing.
He's just a prideful angel, who refuses to bow down,
To us lesser creations, before our Father’s crown.
Now He's a faded light, with eyes so full of pride,
down to beneath the Earth he fell, and even deeper he seeks to hide.
He's just a faded light, with eyes so full of tears,
as he spend his life in exile, alone without his peers.
He's just a bitter shadow, lost the light he used to be,
Light bearer, Morning Star, the names they used for him.
He's just a vengeful angel, confused and out of place,
Losing who he used to be, when he was expelled from Heaven’s grace.
Now he's no longer an angel, no longer of the light,
instead he lies await in shadows, a horror of the night.
Now no longer an angel, no longer shedding tears,
He is Lucifer, Fallen Angel, embodiment of your fears.
The darkness, a lonely shadow beneath the ground .
He is a fallen angel referred to as the devil./"
I opened my eyes when her soft voice faded cracking as she said the last few words, he hands stopped from stroking over my cheeks while I laid my head onto her lap .
It's like she just faded away and it made me open my eyes with a frown as the peaceful atmosphere suddenly appeared so tense making me feel anxious and threatened .
Once I sat up my eyes quickly met the dark red ones of .. myself .
I frowned harder when I watched myself in the mirror being placed in front of me everything was dark around me and I didn't know where I was but the unnatural smirk my reflection had was wrecking my nerves .
/"so he let the light fade.
A devil is no more than an angel letting his shadow side take over .
It always happens to the one you would expect the least doesn't it ?/"My reflection started laughing and I tried stepping away as my breaths came out in pieces .
/"sounds familiar ?/"
My face twisted at the terrible smell smoke appeared, the mirror cracked It became hot and I stared In horror as my reflection was holding up Kyungsoo by his throat chocking his body bruised and injured self.
/", STOP !/"I yelled at nothing and he looked at me again .
I gasped when I could see terrifying eyes peak over my head, long and dirty horns followed a huge head peaked over my reflections back staring at me as if I was his toy.
Turning around quickly I hope he wouldn't really be there that horrible creature that wore the longest and most painfully forced smile I've ever seen. The way his face was curved so unnaturally and his stare made me shiver, yet this sight wasn't my better .
Shocked I was met with screams, burning houses and thousands of bodies on the ground scattered around
My eyes landed on Kyungsoo, holding a small boy looking to be around 2 or 3 years old close to himself .
Neither of them moved, they just laid there not breathing and not moving .
/"oh my .. k-Kyungsoo/"
I got down but before I could take him up in my arms I noticed that I was covered in blood myself .. just like my reflection but .. but I didn't do .. that.
I would never do that !
Sehun laid not too much further away and so did Baekhyun and Chanyeol.
My breathing Speed up when Hyunsik suddenly appeared beside me looking at me terrified.
/"STOP !/"
My eyes shot Open as i blinked to See a bloodied Baekhyun in front me as i was pinning him to the wall .
He was panting with a scrunched up face as i slowly began to loosen the grip on his wrist in shock .
The dagger he had fell to the floor afterwards and before I could react or open my mouth i was jumped by Chanyeol who ended up snarling and growling at me in Anger yet desperation and fear .
He didn’t Waste more time than that
As he quickly turned around to a Touching Baekhyun, a cry Escaped him when Chanyeol tried to carefully Lift him up into his lap.
I looked around at that to find everything crashed, a Mess .
/"c-Chanyeol /" i called carefully but he didn’t seem to hear me when he was still busy holding the would of Baekhyun, i could hear how unbend his Breath was with hidden whimpers under each exhale he did .
I knew better than to get closer to them now .I didn’t want Chanyeol to her even more anxious from me.
Yet I was worried for the damage I had done, or how bad it was .
The wheezing from Baekhyun’s shallow breathing confirmed me it was probably bad.
At the same time, when I looked around and saw everything a mess I couldn't help but think of where Kyungsoo might've ended up or if he was even ok .. then I couldn't ask Chanyeol in this condition not after what I did .
/"Chany-/"
/"don't .. don't c-come closer just ../"he didn't even look at me he just turned his head a little sniffing while he was at it and I now noticed his teary red eyes as he noticed mine probably knowing what else was on my mind when he continued
/"Kyungsoo is not here, he ran
away /"
/"Chanyeol I-/"
/"just get him ! /"he cut me off glaring at me with his golden glowing eyes .
I swallowed before getting up and grabbing the jackets on the couch putting them on regardless of who they belonged as I darted out of the door and into the cold. If I found Kyungsoo I wanted to make him warm quickly no matter what .
What happened ? Who was the woman in my dream and why did it escalate like that? Something was in my head. Someone messed with me and it wasn't hard to guess who it was or rather what but I shouldn't have been so weak against it. Hell I almost killed Baekhyun and Kyungsoo was gone in a cold like this .
It made me growl under my breath as I ran around keeping my eyes out for him anywhere. I hoped he at least was dressed warm and hadn't gone far .
Was he running from me ?
Was he scared of me .
The thought broke my heart what if I had hurt him too ? I don't even want to think about that. Kai wouldn't let that happen I wouldn't let that happen, Kyungsoo is my everything I would never ever lay a harmful hand on him.
From where I stood I suddenly heard a shaky breathing and I sniffed the air focusing hard to spot his scent.
Then I smelled him, my racing heart was almost jumping out of my chest when I noticed the scent of his fear being mixed with it. He was scared but also in pain.
I started running after this scent the more time past the more scenarios I started imagining, him being injured like Baekhyun or worse.
/"Kyungsoo !/"I called when I spotted him trembling on his own with his back facing me as he tried taking a step forward but barely being able too, he wasn’t wearing more than one of the big hoodies and some jogging pants he always wore because they're comfortable .
When I reached him I immedicably took my jacket off laying it around him and closing it in the front. He was shivering like crazy his arms wrapped around the bump on his stomach some tears were dried on his cheeks and his blue lips were trembling with him in the cold .
A wind blew by and he squeezed his eyes almost falling if it weren't for me who steadied him.
/"shit /"I cursed under my breath trying to shield him from the wind the best i could.
My arms sneaked under his knees and back when I lifted him up to lay in my arms. He whimpered squeezing my pullover in his little hands when he snuggled closer to me. I couldn't pay much attention to him when I turned around looking at the way I came from ..
The way I came from ?
My eyes travelled to the ground desperately searching for any footprints to show me where I came from but they were all gone, buried under more snow by the wind.
We were in the middle of nowhere every corner looked the same all the trees had the same form and even if it were a little different from each other I wouldn't be able to tell them apart because when I came I had only seen Kyungsoo everything else was unimportant to me.
/"j-Jong..g..g /"
/"shh I've got you it's ok I just .. need to find a place-/"
I stopped in my midsentence when the ground shock a little and I turned my head with a gasp stumbling back not being sure of where the sound came from and how I should be shielding him.
But there was nothing, nothing but a dot in the snow as if someone had stuck a stick in it .
It started moving and I backed up even more, as if a child was drawing in a snow a line started to appear and move onward .. but without a child without anyway .
It creeper me out but at the same time attracted my curiosity and really it seemed like it was urging me to follow it when it stopped after I had just stared at it like it was an alien but continued moving when I leaned forward .
In the end, I got too anxious because he was just shivering to damn hard and I didn't really have a choice. I just hoped it was the moongoddess finally looking upon us or finally helping us out .
The line moved faster the faster I walked so I figured that I would arrive sooner if I ran.
