Dark Paradise

Chapter 1

Meeting...

They say this place is the safest place for me in the world where I can go if that's happening... This place will surely save me from danger. But this place is so dark and gloomy and I also felt so lonely. What I only see are those big and scary trees around me.

I continue walking while following the red fire in front of me. That thing is my guide since when I was born, this thing is taking care of me. Its physical form is just like a small fireball and I felt connected to this thing deeply.

 and this thing is only speaking in my mind. 

"Empress someone's here." Firie said, I stop walking and looked around "I don't see anyone." I said. I even don't feel that someone is here why she suddenly said that? is she trying to scare me?

"I'm serious Empress!" she said with a serious toned.

she doesn't even have a face so I can't say 100% sure that she is serious because she once scared me before. 

I stop walking and try to feel if someone is really here...

after a minute I really don't feel anything, I even don't hear anything. Only the cold blowing wind in the middle of the forest.

"I don't feel any---" I was shocked when someone suddenly grabbed my right hand and start running while holding my hand.

"Who are--" I said but he abruptly speaks "Don't ask!" He said in a cold-toned voice. 

We just continue running for almost 3 minutes but it seems we are lost. I looked at my back, I thought Firie will follow me but I don't see her. Where does that thing go? Why she is not following me? ... 

"We are lost." I said. He stops running and finally looked at me, he is looking at me seriously while still holding my right hand. "You shouldn't be here!" He said seriously "What do you think you're doing here!" He looks angry now. I laughed a bit while covering my mouth with my left hand.

He frowned 

"what so funny?" He is a short-tempered person, I see...

"You're the one who shouldn't here" I said but he keeps silent. Seem like he felt something. He looked at the sky and I too.

This is bad... its time. 

I was about to let go of my hand he is holding and run away but...

In a few seconds, I suddenly felt something burning in my heart. It feels like my heart is literally burning and it goes down into my nerves and organs.

I kneel down and place my left hand in my heart. I'm also sweating right now and my body feels so weak.
