Wrong Light (Complete)

9.C.O.D.S.

*1 Week Later*

I fell to the ground once more from above the clouds. It didn’t hurt as much as it used to. My body regenerated faster than what it could and I can control my flames as if it’s an animal and I am its tamer. I don’t how I could’ve gotten so strong in what, a day? Ace started laughing.

“Wow! It looks like you surpassed me in a week!”

“A week? That’s how long have we trained non-stop?” He nodded.

“You didn’t notice?” I shook my head. Wow, I don’t even feel tired, Ace doesn’t look tired either, is he really this strong? And I surpassed him?! Wow… The next moment the entrance was slammed open and a frightened red haired mad scientist jumped out.

“Big problems! Big, big problems!” Ace and I looked to each other than at him.

“What?” We asked simultaneously.

“It’s the C.O.D.S.! They’re coming here!” Ace sighed and I stared at him.

“We both don’t know what they are so how are we supposed to know if they’re a threat or not?!” Ace asked angrily.

“I’ll explain later, but right now help me get a few things out of the lab.”

“And then?”

“We run dammit! Come!” We followed him down the stairs and into the lab. He threw backpacks at us and pointed to a few things. We started throwing those things in the packs and when we were finished we ran to our own rooms. I only needed my celphone, but for in case I packed in the grey hoodie and long jeans. I quickly decided to run into Anemone’s roo mas well and grab anything that looks valuable. I ran in to her room and immediately began searching through her drawers. Nothing. I went to her closet and opened it. I don’t know why but I grabbed one of the long-sleeved plain white dresses with the phoenix on the back. Just when I was about to leave I saw a glittering from under her mattress. I ran to it and flipped over her mattress, which ended up with the mattress falling on a mirror and it breaking and loud sounds and the room a mess, you get the picture. The glittering was a small blue gemstone on a small silver book with the words ‘MY DIARY’ on it. I grabbed it and threw it in the backpack. I zipped it up and ran to the lab where Ace was waiting. Amaimon came next with three backpacks in his arms, probably all the information he had in his office. We followed him outside and through the grass field.

“Where are we going?!” I yelled to the rushing red haired.

“Shinigami realm.” Ace and I looked to each other then back at the red haired.

“Are you mad?!” We asked simultaneously.

“We’ll find out soon enough.” He stopped and held up his hand. His death scythe appeared along with a black robe. I noticed the phoenix was on the scythe and the robe. The red ribbon around the scythe started moving like a snake and tangled Ace and I in it.

“What are you doing?!” I yelled. Amaimon closed his eyes and focused. The phoenix on the scythe started glowing and the next second everything went white, I couldn’t see a thing. I closed my eyes and waited for something to happen. But nothing did…

MY eyes jumped wide open and I sat up immediately. I looked all around. I was in a living room of a very modern home. No one was around. I stood up and started walking around. I don’t sense anything weird coming from here. I entered the dining room and saw Ace sitting with his hands behind his head, obviously worried.

“What’s wrong?” He pointed to a window. I walked over to it and saw a massive castle on the top of like a million steps. It looked evil and dark, just like the sky.
