Genesis, A New Creation

Despair

-Chapter 6-

-Ata-

As Ata stood there almost in shock Saara stood next to him and for once, he knew they for once felt like mortals. The fragility of life, how they will do anything for control and power. Ata knew that this was because of Nocte nothing more, nothing less but as he stared at Nocte looking at his father's corpse he had the look of someone who failed and was consumed by it. A tear flowed onto his cheek and fell onto the floor and then Nocte turned cold his face went from full of sadness into a sense of nothingness as if all of his emotions just drained away.

Nocte stood up and closed his eyes and reopened them and Ata saw his eyes were fixed, almost as if finally deciding on one thing. He felt a surge of energy and he felt it come from Nocte but it was quickly suppressed as he gave a small sigh and calmly walked out of the room through the front door, Saara went after him grabbing his shoulder trying to calm him but he pushed her hand off with his other hand and walked into the dark night alone. Ata grabbed his sister's shoulder and she looked at him with despair, something he never saw before and he said "if you must, watch him but do not go near him, unlike you I understand how mortals are….there…..we'll not like us."

-Nocte-

Nocte walked into the night knowing that Saara and Ata stayed at the party and left him and he thought "All according to plan…" his breath shivered in the cold night but he felt that loss even though it was planned and he knew his "Father" was in his paradise but he still couldn't help but feel like he failed at protecting him.

Shaking his head left to right to dismiss the thought he lifted his hand and opened a portal back home, stepping through the portal he went into his home admiring it one last time. He walked into his room and grabbed a case under his bed and placed it on the soft bed that had a red sheet and a red blanket. He began to unlock the case that had golden hinges and he remembered his father saying "When i'm long and gone, i'm sure you will find these things very useful but you may not see them until i'm long gone. Open this case and you will understand, I know you are begging for something great...you learn so fast and are much stronger than even me sometimes. I know for a fact that you will grow to be a fine man." He looked at the case before he opened it; cleaning the dust off with his hand it had Ata's symbol on it which was an Roman Eagle , the case itself polished beyond belief and nothing more he finally sighed and said to himself "Even though i'm the creator of this universe….I still feel lost.."

Opening the long wooden crate,he looked inside and their in a red silk covering was a sword still in its sheath that was marked with a dragon on the sheath that was made out of a silver stitching, taking it out it was light and underneath was a belt and a black robe with a mask. He looked away from the mask and unsheathed the sword and it was a very sharp blade and he pulled it out fully but Nocte saw some flaws and he placed his hand on it and closed his eyes "Enchantment, Unbreakable. Enchantment, Masters Blade. Enchantment, Dragons fury. Enchantment, The weapon of the creator." The weapon shined blue for a few moments, carvings appearing on the blade and the blade itself felt a lot more comfortable "thanks to Masters blade I can now wield the sword as if I was trained from birth and the other enchantments not only boosts its power but makes it practically a legendary blade…"

He resheathed the sword placing it on the bed, Taking the belt out he wrapped it around his waist and putting it on he places the sword in it on his left side and then takes the robe out and wears it as we'll flipping it over him and letting it fall to his the top of his shoe, He then flipped on the hood and took out the mask and looked at it. The mask was rigid, looking as if it was inspired from a dragon's head and felt like it was made out of metal and it had no clear eye sockets but he felt a magical presence from it and put it on, Revealing that he could see through the mask thanks to the magic it was using. He then placed his hand on the box and ignited it with fire magic and walked out of his home as it burned to a cinder and he said "This is a new age….this is my rebirth, I shall make sure I will not fail again father and I will make my Father proud."

Giving his home one last look taking in the burning fire, the roof collapsing he turns back to the forest and begins to walk, Nocte never thought he would actually have to enact this plan. It seems though the world was worse than he thought and he realized how hard it really would be to do this plan, So many unpredictable things could happen he looked up at the stars and hoped that his creations would play into his hand so he could collect them more easily.
