 "Great granny? Are you still watching over me? You know, I still have no idea why you gave me the ability that shared the same name as you, but I am thankful as father couldn't turn me into a vampire... Yet..."

In my own strange language, I am singing it to you,
Through my old self's new words, I will stain my own canvas,
With my smiling paintbrush, I will paint it with no hue,
In order to find the price to end this selfish mass.

After the door was slammed shut, she weakly picked herself up as her back was screaming in pain and agony was she just had gone through some whippings. She wanted to scream and cry in pain but she couldn't. She just couldn't as she didn't want her family to succeed. Not now, not ever. She took a deep breath as she limply walked towards the door while growling, "I will never be that child that you wanted me to be, father."

"If I were you, you should just obey your father, Mavus. We are both aware of his capabilities," a cool voice spoke to her as she was aware that a man with striking blue eyes watched the whole scene unfold. She looked at him with a deathly glare and spoke, "And you are both aware that I am not going to give into the temptation of power in exchange of the blood of the people, uncle Reol!"

Fear suddenly clouded her mind as she heard the door open once again. She looked at her father who had the same striking blue eyes like her uncle, but she did all her best not to show fear. Fake it until you make it, they say. She has been raised by fear itself after facing all these countless torments from her father. She closed her eyes and breathed out softly as the other vampires and members of Oscure were watching the three of them, "Before I drown... Before I fade... Will my voice reach anyone this time?"

Silence. Sets of eyes, just like before, were all directed towards her. No one spoke a single thing and no one even moved. Everyone watched in silence. Everyone was silent. Everyone was slowly turning into shadows in her mind. Their eyes were glowing dangerously in her point of view. Not long after, the song of fear began playing as it echoed throughout the room. This song reached everyone's ears and it resonated like it was played again and again... and again... and again... Only for it to echo in a chorus as the audience sang the same song.


"Mavus? You're really testing my patience, love," her father spoke to her after recovering from laughing at what he assumed her joke. She knew what he would say next, "Just like before, you always have two options: to follow my orders or to follow your mother's only wish."

A mother's wish... A mother's selfish wish. She looked down and hissed in pain while letting out a deep chuckle, "Truly, the world is too noisy for me to be heard, and too silent for me to hear."

She opened a portal below her and she looked like she phased through the floor similar to a ghost. The next thing happened was her falling on her back and on the floor somewhere in the file room of Oscure. She quickly covered her mouth with her hands as she tried muting her cries of pain. She was not allowed to cry in pain as everyone was instructed to report it to her father if they hear her react to such feeling. Little did she know that there was an individual who was skimming through some files at that time.

I will resurrect the dead again at any cost,
I must have my spirit that is left for them to grind,
I have to show my numb hands the blood that I have lost,
This is my last chance to remove myself from the bind.

Just as soon as she managed to recover in her room, she quickly took the detonator she kept under the cameras of her room. She took the small pouch she also got from her great granny as she said to herself, "I'll never be a part of Project Eden. I'll never aid to the destruction of a world just to get it reborn from your selfish hands."

With the press of a button, she was about to use her ability to transport herself somewhere in the city, but she knew... She knew about her father being aware of her ability so she told herself to get transported somewhere further than she could normally could. As her door opened and a group of vampires entering and preparing to restrain her, she told herself to lose control as her last resort of escape. Her eyes blackened as she chanted with a smirk, "Oh voice, who has been with me for long and who has been in between the realms, do not wake me again."

Cracks began appearing on her body which started from around her eyes as random portals appeared. The vampires phased through the ground and disappeared to wherever those portal lead. She let out a menacing grin as she looked at her mother who was not in favor of her actions.

"Mavus, my dear. Why do you always hurt me like this? If you could just marry this individual I was talking about, your father will not be able to hurt you anymore," her mother asked her softly and gently. She cackled and answered, "I'm born to forge my own path of stars as I've been blessed by the moon. I've been raised by fear and anyone's voices will never reach me, mother. I will wait for the day father will fall."

With that, she phased through the ground and disappeared, leaving only silence in her room. Her mother frowned upon her choice of actions and heaved a sigh, "I wished for a good daughter, not a monster. Why must the heavens bestow me such curse of being that child's mother?"

To where this girl went, nobody knew. All they know is that she disappeared and rumours of her getting caught by another shady organization was spread throughout the country of Haimus. Some vampires and hunters have been looking everywhere for her, but not one of them could even find her.

Somewhere outside of Exalla, a lone traveler heard a haunting voice, "Oh child, raised by fear, will you let them reach you?"

"Never will I let them reach me for I am long gone. I am nowhere to be found as my sins have turned against me. I have faded into the sea of colors, but my wish will remain strong."
