A/N: Yeah, I really don't know what I'm doing, bare with me.

A braided blonde boy, missing brother of the famous travelling hero, and ex-ruler of the abyss, running. He was running non-stop, for fear he may get caught. Although no matter where he ventured, he could never escape. Never escape the abyss. His determination never ceased, having one goal in mind; escape. He had no where to go, no place in mind, just running without a destination.

After what felt like an eternity of running, he finally collapsed of exhaustion.

At first, the expression on his sister's face was confusion, it then softened at the sight of his tears.

"Aether! Aether… It's fine, you're in a safe place, with me here. Now tell me what's wrong?"

He tried, he tried to explain what happened before, but he just couldn't, not right then, but he knew he had to. Lumine noticed his hesitation, she pulled him gently over to the massive tree nearby, sitting both of them down, leaning against the tree. He only just realised where they were; Windrise. Aether opened his mouth to explain, his cheeks still wet, before they were so rudely interrupted by the things he's been trying to escape.

A/N: Yep, I'm hopeless at this-
