Someone To Have

1: The Stranger And Ex Lover

It was summer season, however it was raining hard. A tall long silver haired beauty with golden eyes yawned gracefully, fighting the tiredness accumulated for the past 10 years. It's been a year since her retirement and running away from the potential responsibilities their race is going to give her, she's now living in a quiet and peaceful place like a hermit, farming day to day like an old one, she's happy and content now. But everyone is disagreeing about it for her, as she lived like an overworked horse day to day for her whole life, they say she deserve more. But she really is now content and happy.

That's right, this is how she wished her whole life, but life is hard. She just worked to the bone to survive.  As an elite Phantom of Scarlet Emperor Eyes race.

The Scarlet Emperor Eyes, or in short the Scarlet clan, are beings that aren't humans or anything created by any gods, they just exist but aren't gods. They are mighty in many things but cant be in a god level, unless they strive to be gods as they can ascend, but their biggest hindrance of being a god, if they wanted to be one, they must overcome their instinct.

They are great and mighty like dragons, they could live in several centuries, they can create their own power and they are intellegent and elegant beauty that is able to smack the beauty of gods except for the goddess of beauty and love.

As they have great traits for power, intellegence, and beauty. There is one thing they couldn't help and avoid, their instinct and stinking laziness and shocking impulses.

As a Scarlet, Alex have been in trouble of controling her instinct these days (one or more of the seven deadly sins are attacking her in impulse), her sloth, greed and pride are controlling her plus their stinking laziness are equals to ultimate pure proud laziness.

"Ah, I don't want to move, how could I? I'm an expert for telekinesis and runes engineering, those things will just do my work, I'm too great to move, ahh"

As she wanted to sleep, she closed her eyes......

And she couldnt sleep.

"What the...." she cussed.

Then she took a breath, inhaling a bunch of air then letting it out slowly as she is meditating for minutes then attempted to sleep again but in vain.

"What is going on? Why cant I fall asleep?" she hissed in annoyance.

And she tried again many times but still in vain. She's very tired now. She wants to succumb to her ultimate pure pride of slothfulness, but her eyes says otherwise.

And now she's panicking what to do to sleep now, she's very tired now and needs to sleep.

As she is panicking why the is she not sleeping and not being able to surrender to her instinct is very alarming.

"Someone messes with me.... Why and how the fu-..." there was a pause 'cus she got a clue who did it to her and it would be so nagged out for doing it to her. If it was that person.

So she packed her most needed things and now on the move to this person.

The suspect is her past lover and has the power to manipulate dreams and sleep and consciousness. That past lover of hers is able to do it because of the special power she gave before parting ways. They have a clean break up  (cleaner than me) and hold no grudges to each other as they love each other in the past and they promised to remain friends, cause of break up? Simple, a calling, her lover is devoted to their family that they have to break up, her ex lover must pass their bloodline. It couldn't be Alex because she wasn't able have a child yet Scarlets needs to past several stages of growth and her ex lover need it immediately because her lover no longer have time of living, because of the damned curse and poison terrorizing her ex's body, and the frustrating part is she couldn't do anything to it, except to help her during those times of episodes of weakening body.

It's been a week of travelling and Alex still couldn't sleep, she's very tired and anxious.

She steeled her hearth. It's been a long time now.... She expects her ex to be relieved for her arrival  and will do the last favor she was asked for.

After a week again finding her ex lover, she came into a city, she sensed it there, the power she once held as her own.

Walking around she came in a cemetery where she found a burial being processed.

In the portrait she found a red haired beauty smiling gently.

Her heart suddenly sunk, even if she steeled her heart, she already expected this but....

She clenched her hand near her heart.

'this really hurt, you know'

She wants to cry now because of sadness but she is relieved and happy her worries about her ex lover's suffering came to end.

And for the sake of crying, someone already did that.

He was cryin...  No the man was wailling, like he was being slaughtered.

Alex suddenly noticed a red haired child beside of the said man, he was silent and consoling the wailing adult man.
'Is that her child? And her husband?'

Yeah, it was unbelievable for Alex, a child doing that instead of other way round.

She sighed at the scene, 'Jing why the hell is your taste became weird after breaking up with me?'
