******************************

PROLOUGE :

Follow the legacy.

Freedom.

" Where did she go ? "

" Keep looking ! "

That was his last word to me. Freedom.

" I think this is far enough. "

That was what in my mind that moment. But little did I know how deadly wrong I was. It wasn't enough. Never far enough.

The sound of my panting echoed in the rayless terrain.

My legs were aching but I couldn't stop then. I sacrificed too much to stop. I needed a legacy to complete.

" Are seeing anything ? "

" Not in this dark I'm not ! "

If anything I wished for was possible, the first thing that would came in mind was on changing how much repercussion I had been through. All of it was because of my own choices.

The moon didn't shine it's moonlight that night , causing my subconscious to be more apprehensive than it initially was. Everything that surrounded me, I thought of the worst possible notions. It was not helping my affrighted self.

I was only so young. Yet the amount mature matters I needed to face to survive didn't seem fair to live with.

Nothing was fair when you live in a world full of wreckage, that it seemed impossible to differ the salvage of good left. That was what he reminded me.

" Where is she ? " a voice boomed in the darkness.

I felt my muscles were straining. There was only so much a little body could cope. My paces were getting slower and slower. The voices were getting near and nearer.

My arms swayed on the sides of my body. I needed to rest. There was only a tad of energy left in my body.

I tried to remember when I was back with him. The way he taught me from the way to breathe to self percussion. The way he scolded me after repeating the wrong words he taught. The way his voice was so tender when he consulted me in my sorrows. But most of all, the way he talks with full of enthusiasm about the outside world.

" There is always good in evil and evil in good. Remember that. "

Eventually, I stopped running. My hands were resting on my knees and my breathing was erratic. My thoughts about him just made me doubt my actions on leaving.

" I cannot regret this now. Not what after he had been through.

I heard leaves crushing nearby. They were close. I straighten up my body and tried to control my breathing. I was in a rush, but running just wouldn't do. All it did was making the panic inside me rise. I needed a plan.

" I cannot see anything. I am in the middle of the forest. They are after me and there isn't a way that-

Wait, forest. Forest.. Trees. Tall. Hide.  That's it ! "

I cursed myself for not being able to think of such a simple explanation as fast. My tired legs started running again this time, with my hand stretched out to feel any sign of barks of trees.

The darkness was veiling the sight of the outside world. This reminded me of the place I was growing up. Every new day awaits though it did not feel anything was new in that place. The only source of light there was, were the dim torches that lit outside the place. Sometimes I would stretch out my hand, trying to grab the only source of light that there was.

But as always, he pulled my hand back to him. Though he was not a jovial person, not even near that, he always smiled everytime I reached for the light. I asked the reason to him once on the rare expression he was doing, but his reply was always cut by a frown or a shake from his head.

It was as he didn't mean to have a smile on his face. I always thought that the smile was never for me.

As I was running, my body suddenly crushed into something firm. Somehow, I also knew that it was tall.

" A tree ? " my mind thought hopefully.

" Where do you think you're going little girl ? "
