He woke up with a jolt. A loud bang could be heard from the kitchen.
He quickly got up and ran towards the noise, Almost tripping over his nightgown in the process.He looked in to see two figures one helping the other. "Here my Dear.." one of the figures said grabbing the others hand and gently helping them up. "Mother, are you alright?!" He said with a panicked tone.
"Im quite alright Sebastián." His mother said in response. "My dear you should really be careful. You could break one of your antlers.." His father said.
"Oh.. You worry too much love.." She said kissing him on the cheek. "I'm sorry I woke you up Hon." She said as she turned to face Sebastián."Its alright Mother. Its daylight anyways." He said.
"Well since you're up, You sir should go do your chores." His Father said.
"Yes Father." He said going back to his room to change.Sebastián changed out of his gown and put on a white button up shirt that has many stains on it from the many times he wore it while harvesting and planting. He put on brown pants and grabbed his vest and slid it on. He grabbed his boots and put them on. He walked out the door attempting to button his vest.
Once Sebastián got outside he walked over to there shed and grabbed a shovel. As he was walked out his antlers hit the entrance, And Sebastián fell over. He sighed while getting up knowing very well that probably scratched his antlers. "Mothers going to kill me.." He said walking out to go shovel weeds out of the garden.
----
While shoveling the last of the weeds he heard a shout.
"SEBASTIÁN!" It was his father.
He sounded.. Scared? Like terrified, yeah he would get worried often but never like this.
"Yes father?" He said turning around truly seeing the horror on his fathers face.
"Son we have to go to the alter urgently.."He said seemingly out of breath when he managed to catch up to him.
"The alter? But you said Ab-"
"Sebastián please.." His father said pleading with him.
"Alright."
His father ran over to the other side of there property. Sebastián followed.----
"Father can you please explain whats happening.." He said while his father was rushing around the alter.
"Son there will never be enough time in this world to explain whats happening." His father said looking at the alter almost in tears.
"Thats absurd father.. we have plenty of time..." He said seeming kind of annoyed.
He looked up at the Alter. The alter to there God, there creator. Not to be mistaken with his sibling. Whos name is actually Creator.
His family has been devoted to them for years. Sebastián knows practically everything there is to know about them.He looks down at the candle. The candle that was lit every morning by Mother. The candle was lit like normal. But the candle was red. The candle was always a light yellow. Red? He remembers Father telling him something about the candle changing colors but it happened very rarely.
Snapping back into reality he noticed his Father has placed multiple normal colored candles in a circle. "Father.. What are you doing.." He said walking over to the circle. The town is really going to think he's gone mad this time. To be honest he's starting to believe it.
"Im making a safe space..for you.." Yeah. He's gone mad. "A safe space for what?" He said crossing his arms. "What in the world would you need to hide me from?" Sebastián asked. He noticed his father looking up at the sky. His expression seemed to have changed from panicked to horrified in less then a second. Sebastián turned around to see the sky turning red. It was the middle of the day. Its not even close to sunset? The sky turned into a darker shade of red. Almost like the color of the candle.Suddenly his Father grabbed his arm and pushed him into the circle.
"FATHER WHA-" He heard cracking. He couldn't figure out where it was coming from. "Im sorry.. Me and your Mother can't come with you.." His father said practically crying at this point. "Be safe.." He said. "Father please explain whats going on!" Before his father could reply. All the candles burned out. As he heard one last crack. And he blacked out.
----
Sebastián woke up. All he could see was darkness. He looked down at his hands. Okay.. He could still see them. So not darkness. A void?
"Holy shit.." He heard a scratchy voice say.
He quickly turned around to see two.. what are they... One was a dark skinned man with two black eyes like he was used to seeing. But he had something floating around his head.
The other has white hair with horns and a tail. But you couldn't quite see his eyes. They were covered with some substance."You weren't kidding.."
