In the bits of the past...
Smothering stiffness, pain, exhaustion spread from all over the man's body.
He felt like the world is pressed on his chest, like a withered root buried in the ruins of the earth.
"This is the end for me..."
His hope shattered, and asked for the reason of why has this happened to him. The heart may retaliate but the will to live rebelled making his fingers twitch urging to move.
Bits of earth and mud fell onto his face as he tried to move once again. But the reality came to him once more... With no strength to muster, he closed his eyes accepting the fate stored for the kid.
It was at that moment, that he felt and heard some digging on top of him. "Am I... Hallucinating?"
The sound grew louder, when he opened his eyes. Light shone through a tiny crack high above him.
A heavy slab was removed after the girl lifted it all her strength to move it aside.
"Thank goodness... someone is still alive!" She breathed a sigh of relief, with tears falling from her eyes.
"Hang on... I'll get you out of this!"
He saw the person who saved him. Her worried look was overtaken by a joyous relief.
She removed more of the rocks and rubble that are pinned against the man's body. "... Help..." He groaned his voice raspy, stretching out the trembling hand. The girl grabs and promised him.
"It's alright! I'll save you! Don't give up!"
When he grasped the girl's hand, the man could feel the warmth in her palm soothing him. "Just a bit more!"
The woman smiled, her beautiful face highlighted by the sun and unfurled before him like a portrait painting. "Thank... you..."
He lost consciousness as he couldn't bear no longer of keeping himself awake.
The world fell silent, there was nothing felt except for a call echoing in the far distance... "Hey... Wake up... please... Wake up!"
"Not now... please! please don't die on me!"
"Wake up!"
!!!
Owl started to cough as he opened his eyes, the nostalgic past that he was once experienced brought him back to reality. Beside him is the Herrscher of Ice, silently looking at him.
Ana's face was visible beneath the veil, he calmly sighed and thought that it was also back then. She was beautiful as he remembered when he first met her.
Owl slowly stood up and grabbed the girl's hand, the herrscher is confused and did not understood what it meant, as she is just like a newborn child.
"Ana..." He called out to her as the herrscher could only mumble still not capable of understanding the human speech. "Don't worry. I'll get you out of this... Please have faith in me."
"I have promised your father as well... I'll get you out of this hellhole."
Meanwhile at the downtown coral.
Mei has created an electronic field trying to fight against the hypothermia.
"Are you alright Durandal-san?" The officer of the world serpent asked while she reverted back to her normal form.
"I'm fine, what about you? You don't look exactly the same?" Bianka asked fending off the assassin took a toll on her.
"I'm fine, but we must quickly pursue on Owl and the herrrscher of Ice... More importantly..."
