Dark and Light Anthology

Strange Places

It was a good thing the siblings could swim, as they were pulled from the worlds they had fallen into. Neither had wanted to leave the male who had captured their hearts behind but they had to find their younger sister. When the swirling vortex of light had opened a ghostly hand reached through and pulled the pair from the different worlds they had been dropped into.

Luna gasped as she surfaced, the salty water stung the new wound she had received as her male high elf had been teaching her how to use the sword. However when her heterochromatic eyes landed on her twin tears slipped from her bright colored eyes.

"Atlas?" She called out as she made her way towards shore where she saw her blue haired twin looking shocked as hell.

Once she reached the shore, Atlas pulled Luna into his arms as worry and fear set in.

"I haven't seen you in almost a month, I was so worried." Atlas whispered as he held his trembling sister in his arms. "Where are we?" He quickly questioned,

"I don't know if you would believe me if I told you right now, but by the galaxies I missed you too." Luna whispered as she clung to her brother.

Something cleared their throat from behind the siblings, the simple sound caught the two off guard causing the pair to jump, especially after all they had already seen. Luna was ready to use what she had learned to protect them, though she saw something she had never seen in Atlas's eyes: fear, caution yet there was determination. As they turned around there stood a shimmering figure, it was unclear whether the figure was male or female.

"Did you bring us to this place?" The male next to her spoke up as the light grew around them.

As Luna glanced around them, her eyes widened as she took in the colosseum, the statue of Athena, the militia that was storming towards them with their blades drawn, there were carvings of Gods and monsters into many different items around them. Luna tugged on Atlas' sleeve as she realized where they were.

"What Luna?" He questioned.

"Greece, about 700 to 480 B.C. If I have the timeline correct by the way, those men are dressed with leather strips on their body and tunics." She whispered to her twin.

"I did bring you here to right the wrongs that your sister has started on her little trek, though you have so much more ahead of you my loves." The shimmering figure spoke it was still unclear what their gender was as their voice was distorted. "Trust your instincts." The figure spoke as it pointed to the pair.

"Who are you?" Luna called out.

"Right the wrongs that Ava has caused?" Atlas questioned.

Before anything else could be said, lightning struck, as the siblings opened their eyes, they were standing before Zeus, his trident pointed at them.

"Now what?" The twins sighed heavily, exhaustion setting.
