The Lotus Under Blood Moonlight(Noi x Oc)

Chapter 58

Pierce's POV

After wondering around this enormous bunker , it's time. Time to destroy Trader and restore peace once again to Lunaria. Shu once again , her hand wondered on the wall as a door with stairs that led to the surface.

As we walked up carefully , preventing every single trap , a little voice echoed the dark hallway and the volume ascended as we walked closer. "Get off from me , Jinora!" "But I'm scared of the dark , Juan!" "Man , you kids stop being so annoying?!"

"Mom! Dad!" Jing yelled as she jumped a few more stairs and turned into a room. I soon found that this was the place whew we were trapped in when Shu was gone bullcrazy. "Jing , my daughter! Are you alright?!" "I am. So is Josh! Why are you all here?" Sir Jade sighed as his face was written with worries ,"Chang'e was possessed by a evil spirit and she caged us here. In order to move us out from her path to success." "No , it's my fault. I have no idea that Hou Yi was gone and reminded the bad times of Chang'e." "No one blamed you , love." Sir Jade said while held Mrs. Bungee in his arms.

"Tsk , touching. Yet disgusting." Shu uttered which caught the attention of the Usagis. "How was she..." "Shu...?" Shu glared at them a while but quickly turned back. "My girl was still alive?.... But how?" "I WAS NEVER 'YOUR' GIRL!" Shu yelled while extended her spear and smacked through the holes of the cell bars.

"Do you know how much past Shu was suffered those stupid things you believe from those stupid mouths and did to her?! I don't even think I was your daughter , mister." Shu yelled as I noticed her eyes turned dark green.

"You are the one who's being stubborn , saying you want to leave Lunaria! We're just hoping you to stay and not to leave us!" "Well , guess what? I have been sick with your words , dad ," She said while rolled her eyes ,"I have suffered enough with your idiotic tantrums! Why don't we let the one who smacked my o-ke-lili and throw the sin to my head , admitting every. Single. Thing? What do you think , sister?" Shu questioned Juan as she gulped by Shu herself.

"Shu , that's enough. Relax , anger had gone through you." Noi uttered as the green in her eyes vanished like dust as she pulled her spear from the wall and blinked a bit.

"We should be going already." She grunted as she quickly let out an excuse to urge us continue our journey. "What... What's wrong with her nerves?" "Sir Jade for your information , Shu was a whole new person. At first she couldn't remember anything before her afterlife but she seems having some.... flashbacks..." Rhsy explained while Mrs. Bungee uttered.

"Was this how you treat one of your daughters?" Sir Jade hummed in respond as Mrs. Bungee stood up from her ground , "Was this how you treat Shu?! Our own daughter?! The only darling of mine who visited me by the grave?!" "Mom , she killed you! If it's not her , you could be with us , and we will be like a happy family!" "I was defeating Exchanger and I got so tired but I told myself that I must give birth to Shu okay?!"

Exchanger?
Another one now?

"May I ask , Mrs. Bungee?... Who's this Exchanger?" Mrs. Bungee sighed as she leaned on the wall , "Exchanger mainly exchange feelings for something valuable. He had committed so much crimes and many Lunettes had evolved into shadows in the dark. This wasn't an issue as long as I have heard the welcoming of Trader or his brother...."

"Trader was...Exchanger's brother?!"
"Why didn't you tell us someone who's so dangerous?!"
"No one knows about it expect Chang'e and me! I am not bringing fear and sadness to Lunaria!"
Mrs. Bungee yelled as I felt an extraordinary energy from her....

An energy that only Shu and her had....
The audacity they had.... The heart of gold which only told them no matter what it takes , they must not harm their loved ones....

"Jing...," She hummed as she looked at me ,"Have you ever reconsidered yourself as the White Rabbit?"

Shu's POV

Man! That feels good! I have never felt so much joy blasting inside me!

As I thought , the gang had returned but Jing had a face full of anger as she glared at Pierce while Pierce was the ice cold face.

"Eh... What's going on back down there?" "Nothing and we shall go to deal with some demon." Jing said as she walked pass me and even bumped me by the shoulder. "What's with the freaking tantrum , Jing? I have not light up your fuse right?" She turned to me and pushed me onto the ground.

"Shu! Jing! What's all of this?!" Ava yelled as she stood in between us. "Well , with what Pierce said back in there! Do you think I don't have the audacity to face Trader?! I am the smartest among all! And I will not let some little children to take the place!" I raised my eyebrow confusingly as Pierce uttered , "But the prophecy-" "I don't give a shit to the prophecy! I have the right alright?! I don't care some 'Mrs. Bungee had the exact equal aura with Shu.' Are you putting doubts on me?!"

I stood up from the ground , walked to Jing , placing my palms on her shoulder , "Jing , I don't know what happened down there. But , tha prophecy was yours. I never want to steal it." "Oh my Celine , quit being humble , Shu! You have so much potential as Mom. And your humbleness was only making my jealousy ascend to the heavens! I want to be look up!"

She said while a tear glided down from her cheek , I was shocked by her reaction. "I had another living under your shadow... You had loved by Chang'e, specially taken care by... I don't get what make you so talented!" "I...." I had gone speechless by now , I don't anything that she said , but it felt so familiar....

"Why....Why don't we.... exchange our places? I will do the sacrifice as I might fallen and be forgotten." I said bluntly but instead I earned a glare by Jing. "Look at you now! You was still be the kind little girl! I want to prove my rightful place!" "That's not how you earned a place where you felt worthy! Instead you felt so confused if you're doing the right thing!" "And I don't need your lecturer! I am the smartest among all , even you!"

"Stop being such a baby already! You are just acting like a baby who wants treat!" I yelled at her , "Just give me the diary of Tra-" Before I could snatched the book from her , she gave me a slap on the face ,which gave me a oddly familiar feeling.....

"You’re the baby. You're just a teenager. I had more life experiences than you." I glared at her as I stood up from the ground , touching my cheek that was somehow bleeding.... This blood smell was irritating yet familiar.... The smell was bloodish and sad.....

"You know what? Fine.... I shall take my leave... See you on the other side...."  I uttered as I picked up my beloved spear and took my leave with strange feelings.

Noi's POV

"...I shall take my leave....."
Wait what?!

She soon picked up her spear as she walked away in quick speed. "Shu!" I yelled but was ignored as her figure was disappeared in mid air.

"We don't need her. Had I prove how much I worth it to this position?" Jing questioned Pierce. "I didn't tell you to hurt Shu to prove it..." "At least she left and no one's in my way. Let's get going." Jing answered coldly as she continued  walking while I was still looking at the door where Shu took her leave.

"Hey , are you alright,  Noi?" Leif questioned me. I only nodded hesitantly as Leid already busted me. "It's a shame that Shu couldn't join us in this last journey. At least we get to see her when we got back to Daemos." He comforted me as we walked,  ready to face the demon behind all of this....
