Eternal Shadows

The Past or The Present.

Aki was sitting on the roof top of her house, having a flashback, 10.500 years ago, entering the past. The flashback took us when Aki was all alone, sad in a mountain, watching the sunset. After a while, Orson sit next to Aki.

Orson : "Finally found you Aki. Everyone's been looking for you. Gotta say, you choose a nice place to watch the sunset. Is something wrong?"

Aki wiped her tears and spoke in a weak voice.

Aki : "It's.. Nothing, Orson.. I just.. Wished that.. My powers couldn't hurt anyone.."

Orson : "You're right.. The power of the God of Death is way beyond this universe. It's really deadly.

The wind flowing slowly, feeling the atmosphere turned humble. Orson looked at the sunset and smile.

Orson : "You know, I wasn't aware my powers also."

Aki looked at Orson with a surprised look.

Aki : "You.. Don't..?"

Orson : "Heck no. I couldn't even control my powers before. It was really out of control, but I managed to be one with the Anubis. True strength lies not in the power you possess, but in the wisdom to use it with care. That's what I learn."

Aki chuckled a bit and puts her head on Orson's shoulder, smiling a little since she felt a bit better.

Aki : "Thanks.. That made me feel better."

Orson : "Anytime, Aki."

Aki : "I was wondering.. If you lose somebody that you truly love.. What will happened.. And.. Is it okay, to let them go..?"

Orson hesitated for a moment before answering.

Orson : "Well.. What I do know.. Is when you love somebody. You will be willing to let them go."

Aki : "Even if it hurts..?"

Orson : "Mhm. Especially that."

The timeline slowly fades away, giving back the time of the present day. Aki shed a tear and looks at the glowing starts.

Aki : "Even though time has passed, your absence still echoes in the quiet moments of my heart."

As the time past, Michael sat next to Aki and rest his head on her shoulder.

Michael : "I finally put the kids back to sleep.. What do you think we should do now?"

Aki : "Well.. How about a movie night?"

Michael : "Yeah.. That sounds nice."

Michael kissed Aki's cheeks and they went back inside the house. Back at the Heavinly World, Hikaru is on his duty, balancing the place.

Hikaru : "Well. Everythings going smoothly now. I've handled the complains, wisdom telling, and a lovely meeting with the Angels."

Everything was going very smoothly, but then a portal opened up, opening the entrance of the Infinite World. The portal was sending winds from inside. Hikaru was shocked when he saw a familiar figure comes out of the portal.
