Ephemeral

The Great RED Wave

Until it all seemed ephemeral. 

Author's POV 

Your Majesty!! The Atlantia Royal Guards are attacking our Royal Guards! Ahhhh *collapses*. Everyone looks at each other in great confusion. 

King Percious - What is the meaning of this, Atlus? 

King Atlus - I have not the slightest idea Percious!

Queen of Pacifia - Dear please calm down, King Percious I'm sure there must be some misunderstand-

*people screaming*

King Percious - The citizens!? Guards alert everyone and prioritize the safety of the citizens, send them into the safe zones immediately! 

Guards - Yes sir!

King Percious - Atlus and I will join them, Evangeline, go with everyone else. And Neona, protect them, Hurry!

Neona - Yes father!

Prince Alanciel - Father, let me join the two of you as well, I have a MizuDobutsu and a weapon. 

Kings - hmmm... Fine then, the three of us will head to the city and you three get to the safe zones, we shall join you soon. 

Evangeline - Thomas I- 

Prince Alanciel - shhh, it's alright, I shall be back, here you can keep this *gives a purple diamond bracelet with Eva carved into it*. I wanted to give it to you anyway cuz I thought it suit you but I modified it a bit, hehe. *Kisses her cheek*

Evangeline - wait! I have something too, here! *gives the turquoise gem necklace with his name carved into it* Be safe and come back!

Prince Alanciel - I will, *whispers* always to you, home, my love.

Evangeline - *mind* what was that last part??

Queen - Let's go now. 

Once the Kings and Prince had left the castle, they saw a dreadful sight, the city was tainted with the blood of the people, the clear blue ocean had now become a deep blood-red colour and the smell of iron filled the city. A horrendous sight to behold, they were all shocked and disgusted to see such a sight. 

Citizen - Help! 

Prince Alanciel wields his sword and cuts down the attacker with one clean swing of his blade. Father, King Percious, I shall take my MizuDobutsu and head for the city fountain and widen the scope from there. 

King Percious - Take a few guards with you too. Atlus, we should head towards the borders.

King Atlus - Yes, right away.

Eva's POV 

The search lasted for hours, and in the end, they could only save around 60,000 people out of which around 1,000 were injured. That day we lost 40, 000 people and so it is named The Great Red Wave. The bloody colour and iron smell lasted for a month, rebuilding the city took 4 months and healing the wounds... well they are still not healed. 

Thomas - Just how did this gruesome massacre begin? 

After rescuing the citizens, Father, King Atlus and Prince Thomas reached the safe zone unharmed. Nobody knew what caused this uproar but then a guard from Oceanna said that he received a signal from the treasury, stating that there was an intruder. The Royal Guards rushed in, only to find a Pacifia royal guard badge lying on the floor and 10 missing treasures. The badge was shown to King Atlus and...

King Atlus - it can't be... how is this possible

King Percious - Is it real? is it one of yours?!

King Atlus - it is but I-
