Beginning
''My little moonshine,'' Violet mumbled, looking at the horizon. ''I shouldn't leave you, yet I am. It is only for the best. I am confident you, my little moonshine, will be able to survive. This world; That has been destroyed, I have faith. My little moonshine.''
The baby boy reached his tiny hands up to his mother.
The corners of Violet's lips curved into a small smile, tears slowly made their way down her face. She kissed her baby's forehead, gently placed him in the box, said her goodbyes. And left.
That was the last time she and her baby ever saw each other.----
Arche's eyes opened, to see his messy room. He sighed. It was cold. Cold enough to see his sigh. His gaze averted to his high-tech electronic calendar. It read:
309117-kad-24
Monday 24, 309117
Highs in 65 f
Lows in 28 f''Highs in..65?'' He croaked, he buried his head back into his pillow. ''Todays gonna be one hell-of-a day.''
Arche leaped off his bed, he had no idea what to wear today. So he decided to go with his normal outfit; a pair of light-brown, baggy sweatpants. Along with a darker brown tank top, with his dark brown sweater, he straightened his black belt, putting his pocket knife in it's holster.
He looked into his cracked mirror.
''Eh, I look ok," He mumbled, walking away.----
'' g'mornin' Arch, how'd you sleep?'' Arche's caretaker, Juno, questioned. Arche shrugged, not knowing how to respond. Juno rolled their eyes.
'' Someone's grumpy,'' they whispered under their breath.
Arche snarled, but continued to linger towards the door.
''Ah-Ah-Ah~ Where do you think you're going?'' Iva teased, smirking.
Arche shivered, I swear she's a psychopath. He thought to himself.
''Out.'' He snapped, grabbing hold of the door knob.
''Arche, where are you goin'?'' Juno demanded, turning towards the teens.
Arche sighed angrily, Why can I not just go out?
''I'm going out,'' he replied sarcastically.
''Watch it. Where are you going?'' Juno requested.
''I am 6,304 days old. Can I not just go out, without being interrogated? Is that so much to ask.''
''It doesn' matter how old you are, It's dangerous.''
Arche rolled his eyes, I've been outside so many times, why is this such a big deal now?
''I've been out so many times, what's the difference now?'' He angrily shouted. '' I'm going out and I could care less what you have to say about it.'' And with that he stamped out, and slammed the door behind him.. . .
''Wel-''
''Go to your room Iva.'' Juno spat, with pure anger.
Iva looked down, ugh, I can't believe I got in trouble. And for what? Nothing. I hate Arche for being the favorite, I hate Juno for favoring him.
Iva angirly stomped away. Tear's gathered in her eyes.----
Arche sprinted away from his home. He stopped once he saw how far he'd run.
'' I cannot believe they still don't trust me! I've done everything to please them. Yet, they still dwell on one small mistake.'' He yelled into the clearing, pacing around.
''God! Can they stop feeling sorry for me? And begin to trust me, like they always say they do. 'Oh, Arche. I trust you so very much, to the point I cannot get off my high horse and let you go outside''' he angrily huffed, kicking a rock into the broken up asphalt.
''I cannot believe Iva tried to ruin this for m-'' He paused. ''-me..''
He squinted, looking between the asphalt cracks.
What is that?
The dark figure was moving.
Arche couldn't make out what it was, so he quietly moved closer to the crack.
He was near the edge, when his foot knocked a rock down the crack. He cringed as it fell. Suspensefully, he waited for it to hit something and the figure would realize it wasn't alone.
He heard the crash of the rock, opened his eyes, and watched the figure's head turn to where the noise happened. The figures head snapped upwards, to where Arche was standing and they met gazes.
The figure's eyes were glowing.. Red.
Arche gasped and backed away, stumbling as he tripped.
He could hear the figure climbing up, through the crack in the asphalt.
''fuck!'' he mumbled, scooting away as quickly as he could.
A claw of some sort reached the top, Arche saw this and the panic within him grew. The scratching of the claw trying to grab something, to pull up on.
''I really should have listened to Juno today, goddamn it! '' He cursed loudly, being cornered between a wall and the thing. He is still not completely sure what it was, but he was terrified of it.
The claw grasped onto a shrub and It pulled up. The claw soon became; a dark body with glowing red eyes. The creature slowly began to shuffle over to Arche's corner.
Soon enough it was towering over him. It raised its arm, getting ready to swing,
''W..what are..you?'' Arche stuttered out, painicing.
The creature stopped
