Kingdom of Shadows

It was dark, and nothing to be seen for miles. Just the floor and a ray of light. A young teen. He had dark hair, blue eyes and wore red canvas shoes, black jeans and a zipped up hoodie of white over a black T-shirt.

He was sitting there on the floor Hugging his knees. When he started thinking of the memories of what his ex, Ayame said.

When someone hugged him from behind, as faint voices could be heard saying "i love you" repeatedly

"Eventually, we can start our own life together. Wouldn't you like that? " Ayame said, Ryuu trying to push her away saying "Stop" softly in a tired voice

"We could be together forever and live in the city. WOULDN'T THAT BE AMAZING!? " Ayame said, as her voice sounded like a demon. As blood spilt from her eyes and mouth like thin liquid

Ryuu woke up in a cold sweat yelling as he calmed down realizing where he was, sitting on his bed looking around as dry tears were wiped from his face

"Where am i?" He questioned himself "I don't recognize this room." He thought looking around more. He got up and walked into the bathroom to wash up, after that. He walked into the kitchen to see if there was food in there. He found a can of soup and a small pack of saltines. He heated the soup up and walked over to the table.

The room was silent, a clock ticking as it counted seconds gone by. Ryuu tried remembering what happened. But he couldn't think of what happened. As he remembered more he heard a loud scream in his head and a bloody image of his mother dead, as he got up fast "Mom!?" He said, as he knocked over his water from the table

He stood there as he couldn't remember and he started having an emotional breakdown knowing whatever he remembered was the fate of what really happened. He knew reality was a sick game of life that no one had asked for. Brought into this world without choosing.

Hours passed before he got over his mothers death. While not completely, he knew he couldn't dwell on it to tear him apart, as he was torn inside already.

He got up and went outside to see he was in a small village. Minimal food, but food stands none the less. It was the beginning of winter as there was small amounts of snow on the ground. The grass frosted over and the daylight bright. Ryuu looked around and saw someone walking towards him waving "Ah, Good morning, mr. Ryuu! " the man said.

He had purple med length hair, wore a top hat and leather armor over an average day-to-day outfit

"Who are you?" Ryuu asked, as the man stood in front of him, shaking his hand

"Ah, of course. Where are my manners" he said spacing each word "I Am Jasper the 2nd. Humbly at your service" the man said to Ryuu "Walk with me. I'd like to show you around " Jasper said. Walking with Ryuu, his arm around Ryuu's neck "My name is Jasper the 2nd, as you already know. I am a board member of this town hall here in town." He said pointing his cane around to the town hall like a cursor, continuing to walk

"You may have suffered short term memory loss, or even short term amnesia. But dont worry you'll be back to normal within a few weeks" Jasper said waving his cane around

Ryuu pulled away and stopped walking

"Woah, wait. What happened to me?" Ryuu asked

"Well. You were found under some ruins in the city. You see, fallout happened, war on territory presumably. It's been going on for a month now. While there weren't nukes or anything used. Something much worse was" Jasper said, turning away and walking more
