Ynnah
I look forward to this day. The confrontation. But why do I feel like I wasn't prepared? Instead of courage, fear and apprehension I feel at these times.
And seeing Eron in front of me right now is giving me chills to my spine with his cold hazel brown eyes. If you stared at him you will see the difference between him and Eros even if they'll say that they are identical twins. They maybe have the same features, but apart from the different colors of their eyes and hair, you could see a mole on the side of Eron's left eye while Eros' is on his nose.
If you are new and do not know them, you will be really confused as to which of them is Eron or Eros. But when you finally know them then you could see the difference between the two of them.
"You good? Scared?" he asked.
At the same time, was the opening of four lights coming from both corners of the arena, and a torch on my side. It was only then that I noticed that not only the two of us were here but no. There's plenty of them. There are plenty of Angels around where I am hanging at. Angels with strange wings.
If I am not mistaken, they are Angels of satan. The Angels cast into the blazing fires of hell. The sinned one.
While I was on a stage in the middle of the arena hanging. My hands and feet were tied up. It was as if I had been crucified because of my position while Eron was in front of me, he's floating in the air with his beautiful black wings and staring down at me with his dangerous hazel brown eyes.
So, he really got me. He finally got me. And there's no way he's gonna let me go. Not until I am a cold lifeless corpse. I thought I was ready. But no, because the strange nervousness and fear is still here whenever he is just around me. Especially now that he is in front of me.
"Should I?" I ask despite how nervous I feel at these times.
But I shouldn't feel this way. I shouldn't feel scared towards him. I should feel courage and confidence but why do I feel the opposite?
For Eros, I should be strong.
He just shuddered as he toyed with the familiar knife in his hands. The silver knife shining in the moonlight. The one he used before to kill me in my dreams.
"You're already in my hands now, Francine. Do you think anyone else will save you?" he smiled scary. "No one, Francine. No one because he's already gone."
My heart pounded more after hearing those words from him.
No! It's impossible!
Eros will never be gone!
I am the one that he only need and not Eros. I knew he would only kill me. He could not afford to kill his own twin. I know he can't do that thing. It's just me. It is me he wanted to be dead because he sees me as compensation for everything that happened to the two of them. I am the compensation for Eros' betrayal, and their misery. I am the compensation because I am the cause of everything.
"Liar!" I trailed off and shrugged as I tried to get out of the shackles of both my hands even though I knew it was impossible for me to get out of it.
"Oh, go on and don't believe me," he still playing with the silver knife on his finger while saying those words. "And please, don't force yourself, it will only hurt you," he said as he landed on the stage floor and stared at me with his blazing eyes.
"Let me out of here! Fight fair, Eron!" I shouted as he just laughed demonically.
"Fight? For what?" he asked as he seated like a king on the elegant chair that placed in front of me. "Do you think you can beat me when I fight you fairly? And one more thing, I don't beat up a lame woman like you."
I tilted the side of my lips as I avert my full gaze at him who's now staring at me intently.
"Lame woman you say? Why don't you try me?" I said with full of confidence that is written all over my being.
Even though I was just like this, I knew how to fight fairly. I already know martial arts. Eros teach me how to do it. He also teach me some basic self-defense in able for me to defend myself if someone intended to hurt me.
"Your courage is overflowing, human. I like that," he stood up from his seat and walked towards me. He brought his face close to mine and at the same time he touched my chin. "But, do you think you can fool me?"
"Stop it already! Don't indulge in anger and revenge, Eron." I said that made him smiled demonically. "There's still hope, Eron! Everything will be all fixed if you just- "
"Sorry for ruining your imagination but it's all too late now, Francine," he cut me off as he tilted the side of his lips showing his deadly smirk. "Nothing can be fixed, and nothing can be restored. And do you know why? That's because of you! It is you! You are the cause of everything! "
He tightened his grip on my chin even more as his eyes blazed with anger causing my chest to throb even harder due to the fear and nervousness caused by his dangerous eyes. He looks like a living monster right now and ready to get his prey.
His expression cries out with hatred and revenge. His whole being is now tainted with greed, enveloped in fury and hatred. You can really see in his eyes his desire to kill me right at his hands.
But I knew something was holding him back. His plans to do before he will kill me. His plan was to torture me before taking my life right at his own hands.
He violently released my chin before stepping away from me.
"By the way, I have a surprise for you. And I know you'll love it," he said and faced me as he stand elegantly with full of authority.
He just snapped his fingers and in a blink of an eye, a woman in a white coat with a hood came up while her head bowed down. She approached Eron before facing me still bent over.
"Francine, meet my faithful companion-" he put his hand on the woman's hood and at the same time as the hoodie came down, my both eyes widened in so much surprised when her face lifted and looked at me without any emotion that is visible on her face.
"L-liza?" I said stuttered, unable to believe what I just saw.
"Oh, you know her? What a great rendezvous!" he said full of sarcasm.
I shifted my gaze to Eron who was full of anger in his eyes. "What did you do to her? Don't hurt her, Eron! It is me you wanted right? Just kill me! Don't involve her in your revenge! She has done nothing wrong to you!" I said in gritted teeth but he just laugh at me.
"Really? Are you still going to defend her in this situation? After she hit you in the neck with a pipe just to make you lose consciousness so that I could finally get you effortlessly?" I was stilled in shock at what I just heard from him.
I avert my gaze to Liza who is still standing beside him and still looking at me without any emotion on her face.
She did that?
She's the one who hit me so that Eron get me for his revenge to Eros?
But why? How did she meet Eron?
"Do you remember the time someone gave you a paper bag containing a dead cat? She's here too, "he snapped his fingers in the air and like what happened earlier, there was a woman in a coat and hood who climbed the stairs and stood next to Liza." Please show your face to her. "
My eyes widened even more when I saw Calisse behind it.
What the fuck is going on?
"Surprise?"
"Fuck you!" I exclaimed in anger as I shrugged myself from the ties.
I feel full of anger and hatred now because of the two people I trusted but they also turned out to be the ones who betrayed me. And they even made a way to endanger my life even more at the hands of Eron.
I wanted to hurt them, but I know it isn't right. It is not right to hurt the person who also hurt you. They say, 'If a stone is thrown at you, throw bread at them.' That's what my Mommy and Daddy taught me.
"Now you know what it feels like to be betrayed by your own trusted friends," full of resentment he says which is the reason for me to stop. "Now you know how painful it is to be betrayed by people you trust. It hurts, doesn't it?"
I bit my lower lip. I couldn't speak. He has a point, yeah. But he still did it wrong! Killing for revenge is not the solution!
Yes, I'm hurt and angry now, but that's all. We have the right to be angry, but to indulge in anger and retaliate in a bad way? That's not right!
"Yes it hurts, Eron. "I said truthfully which made him stilled for a moment and smiled devilishly afterwards. " It hurts so much that I want to hurt them. But hurting them as well as compensation for hurting you is not the solution."
His evil smile vanished when he heard my last sentence.
"It is, Francine," he said as cold as ice. "It is."
I was almost out of breath when he quickly approached me and pointed the knife at my neck.
"Do you want me to kill you right away?" he asked but he shook his head afterwards. "Naah, it will be so boring of I did that."
Like a flash, he disappeared immediately in front of me and I noticed that he was now sitting on his throne.
"Torture her for me," he ordered, the two nodded in response to his wish and took the gigantic pipes that I didn't know where they came from.
Despite the nervousness I am feeling right no, I was still able to shout to wake them up to this madness. I noticed earlier that they were not on their own self. Eron just controls them.
"Liza! Calisse! Wake up! Please! Don't let that demon control you!" I shouted as my heart raced with fear as they walked towards me with the single pipe they were holding.
"Liza and Calisse have been dead for a long time, Francine. So no matter what you do to shout there, they won't hear. They are under my powers right now, and no one can stop me from torturing you to death," he said as he laughed demonically.
And that's when I almost fainted from panic because of what I just found out.
So, Liza and Calisse that I knew were already dead long time ago?
So that means-
"You're right, Liza's family you met were also dead long time ago. They died, because of the massacre that happened in South Korea in 1975. And Calisse died of rape and homicide."
