....

You escaped

... But thats ok...

But don't forget..

Your friends are still far away...

you won't be safe for long Ziera

Mark. My. Words.




/...ZIERA.../


Ziera looked around in awe. This 'safe place' seemed to resemble a well lit cave, there were beams of light shining in places where it would be completely dark, critters flew here and there, perching on trees, speaking of trees, they were now a light brown color, and the ground was now grey, and had the pattern of stone with patches of the purple-ish grass here and there.  "Woah... how did you... find this place....?". "I don't quite remember, it was a long time ago, this place used to be somewhere I could hang out with my friends... but now, its just a safe house....". "Friends? Long time ago?... how long have you been down here?"

"..."

"Since I was synthesized."

"synthesized?.... What's that? Don't you mean... breeding structure?"

".... what... is that?"

"How monsters are created?"

"...I don't understand.."

"Y-You did come from ethereal island right... you were created up there but was moved down here.... right?"

"No... I don't even know what it looks like up there.... why?"

Ziera was taken aback, they weren't created up on ethereal island... then somehow got down here... She had to admit, she felt a bit stupid, Of course they weren't made up there! They look otherworldly! But that raised a question

what exactly are they?

"You... are an ethereal... are you?"

"Yeah... well... not exactly... I... I mean I think..."

"...."

"A hybrid ethereal... a...."

"What are your elements?"

"... Plasma... Shadow... and"

"AND!?"

"Yeah... what do you mea-"

"YOU HAVE THREE ELEMENTS.... YOU ARE AN ETHEREAL... A TRIPLE E-E-ELEMENT Y-Y-YOU AREN'T SUPPOSED TO EXIST!"

"... Why?"

"ITS TOO UNSTABLE... HOW ARE YOU EVEN ALIVE??"

"The workshop... it keeps me... and the others stable...."

Ziera sense of peace seemed to wither away, nothing made sense anymore, her breathing started to become rapid, her heart beating even faster. This meant the blue monster was also A triple... what if he tried to attack her without warning! She started to back away, her fur stood up sharply. Meebkin noticed and slowly let go of his staff, so now he technically didn't have a weapon.




"Please... calm down... I'll explain everything..."






/...???.../

There was a sound... talking...

They didn't sound like them

Two... two monsters?

They look and smell different...

He must already know about them..

Good, im too old to get into any of that anyway...

But i can't say im intrigued...

But they might get scared if I make myself known..

Well... maybe a little spook won't hurt...

After all

They're lucky im not X'avier...

He'd kill them in a heartbeat...

Isn't that how the small one died.... I have to admit its devastating

....Why do we even do this...

I missed it when he wasn't all vengeful

I miss whisper... I hope she's okay...

I want to be able to sing with the others again.....
