Author note: hiya something new today you are now ethereal and this will be in the second person

"..I have all arts"

You could feel her condescending smile radiate off her form, each release of Nanami's laughter caused ethereal's entire being to feel revolted yet she remained limp and only listened.

You had no idea how long it had been but it felt like hours. In a cold, dark room surrounded by her repeated voice which only spoke words of pain, over and over again.

Heyyy, ethereal~.

Her voice echoed through your ears enough to make them bleed, you were currently in a small room which had nothing except the straight wooden floor boards, wall and a tv hooked onto it. A single dim light bulb was your only source of light as there were no windows.

You were settled in one of the four corners of the room with your back against the wall, one hand rested on your bent knee while the other rested on your straight leg.

Your head was held low to see nothing but the ceiling, hearing and Invisioning every word and picture that would enter your mind from how long you've been in that room.

La la la la~

Another wave of giggles and laughter made you let out a groan and burry your face in your hand. If it wasn't for the bracelet that blocked out your art then you would've escaped.

Heheheh-

Nanami. That's enought

You opened a single eye. confused at the sound of the mascular voice, You tilted your head at the unfamiliar sound of static waves which filled the room.

Only one of your eyes were visible since the other was hidden under your now wild heterochromatic hair. Such as your spirit, your eyes were weak, bored and appeared unbothered. The results of being mentally torchured for so long.

The tv suddenly came to life revealing a proud man hidden in the shadows. He wore a black suit with a grey dress shirt, his face. shielded by the darkness. Only his clothing were illuminated by a diagonal slit of light.

Ethereal.

His voice was calm and collected, Eerily. He silently stared at you with a single smile forming as he folded his hands otop his desk.

My dear, don't be so cold now... say hello to your granduncle now won't u?

The girl only stared at the screen, exhausted that her eye bags weighed down her energy the more she listened to their never ending laughter.

Do you know why you're here?

It was silent as he awaited an answer that he never received. Emotionlessly his smile dropped and an intimidating glare appeared, causing ethereal's breathing to became rigid.

For the first time in a while she felt cold again. The dim light flickered son and off being tempered with every second. There was no sighn of any black goo but you couldn't bring yourself to move except stare at the being Infront of you.

From no where a thick and hazy fog spread through out the room and in minutes it looked endless and before you dozens of scenes played before your eyes.

Grey dominating wolves with gold and red eyes staring at her with a few moving towards her, it flashed and changed to an unburied graveyard scattered with dead soldiers of war, laying still in the lands of ice and snow. The wolves had splashes of blood on their once elegant coat that reeked of death.

Before she could blink they where Infront if her eating away the flesh if her kingdom and the Nobara, she raised her hand in defense but then noticed the thick trail of  blood flowing down her arm. She looked at her hand, to her chest and screamed when she saw the bone from her rib cage visible.

She blinked and all she felt was pain in her left side and she could no longer feel her senses from her  left face to her left elbow. Turning her head stiffly she noticed her entire left torso bloodied with her organs on full display, this time she tried to scream but it was muffled with coughs of blood that chocked her vocals.

And in another blink the wolves were around her, with her barely seeing nothing due to her tears, the fog and blood she once again  blinked painfully and saw the man from before standing plainly Infront of her clearly, with no fog insight.

He walked towards her and her first instincts was to shuffle away from him but somehow he was already Infront of her staring directly at her. Slowly but harshly grabbing her lower face he stared at he with a hint of amusement

You, my dear  will be my greatest weapon, you will strick the nine realms with unimaginable fear. A fear worse than mine, on ever men woman and child. You were created to cause suffering and to suffer and will be at my disposal after all you are just an infinite curse, burdened to be followed by nothing but sorrow and death.

A deafening silence filled the room while ethereal stared through her dying hair to look at the man.

Her eyes where puffy with tear stains dampening her once soft cheeks, now dirty and sweaty from the onslaught that happens the days before.

"Please...just kill me inst..."

Deep down she wanted to became the legendary 'hero' everyone blabbered about, but what she did was engraved in the manuscripts of history but was covered and hidden enough to make it seem like it never existed.

His smile brought back everything and nothing and for a split second she almost gave in but she couldn't feel herself giving in, she wanted to live but by chosing that she would have to live and rewind every dream abeing crushed and nightmare coming to life.

She needed time to think, to be alone and not have any expectations of her, but.

'That won't happen as long as I'm kind, as long as i show that m trying to push my flaws away and be perfect. As long as i show that i can't control that i care to much.i will always be in the grasp of the world's corrupted  leaders'

In a matter of seconds i raised my head to stare at him with a look so bold and cunning THST even the bravest of warriors would stop to ponder.

Lazily i said before his condescending smile returned.

"What do you need?"















"Good"








He smiled once more.
