One - God of Doom
GODDOOM
"The seas run at his sight...
The whole world starts to seek light...
And you better run to avoid his sight...
Because a battle with him is just a slaughter,
Not a fight"
The children sang his song and the town's people remember the stories of his arrival. The old men and women look downcast.
It was said that if humanity failed to defeat god of doom after their tenth try, all humanity would perish. A group of people are trained from birth to fight god of doom every twenty years. They had already lost eight times and this was their penultimate try...
Melody jolted up from bed. She had been having the same dream for about a month now. She even had to see the family doctor from time to time because of the severe fever she got after having that specific dream. The dream randomly came to her, it could be any night at all.
"Not again," she said while she touched her forehead to feel her own temperature. This time was better though. She was not feeling any weakness like she used to before.
Just then she remembered there was school that day. The thought of school brought the thought of Joel along. "That idiot!"
"Hope it's not directed at me," her younger brother was at the door.
She turned to see him, "No! Not at all"
"So let me guess, Joel?"
Her brother's comment left her speechless. 'Of course, everyone knows of me and my fighting partner, Joel,' she said in her head, she continued, 'though I don't want my brother to think I ever think of him'
"No!" she replied louder than she meant to. "Why would you think that?"
"Well, he's the only person you'd ever call idiot without feeling bad about it," he let out a short laughter.
She joined in the laughter.
"Mom's waiting for you downstairs though, she said the doctor dropped some drugs for you"
"Oh okay, I'll be down in a minute then."
On a bright side, school also brought along the thought of her best friend, as her younger brother left the room.
To her, Michelle was the ride or die she could never have but then, she had. If something happened to tear down their friendship, she would tear down along with it.
