It was dark. Everything was dark again. It felt like you were back at Dark Tempest.

It was cold. Everything felt so cold again. It was like you were back in the cold snow outside.

You were running.

Through the dark, cold place that was supposed to be Bright Celestial.

However the darkness, the coldness, the angst haunted you, creeping into your feet and numbing your muscles. 

One corner after another one became your supporter for your body. You were too weak, too afraid. You were back. It was over.

"If you have one wish, what would that wish be right now?"

A voice echoed through the emptiness of the void this place represented.

Leave me alone, leave me alone, leave me alone, leave me alone

Please leave me alone

Your chants were prayers. Your prayers were beggings. And your beggings were your escape.

Tears welled up in your eyes, your body got weaker. It swallowed you and pulled you back.

That terrifying feeling.

Shaotian was somewhere. Somewhere near, somewhere far, close to catching you, far from finding you. 

"Don't you want your wish granted?"

Leave me alone, leave me alone, leave me-

In the midst of your mind being a chaos of multiple craziness intertwined, mingled and cursed, you lost your senses. You were out of it. The truth was you didn't know the voice at all. Who was that?

Turning half way around to the direction of the voice, you caught eye to eye with a strange face. A new feeling washed away all the fear.  Their hand steadily held your arm and drew you back to a room.

"Let me talk to Shaotian."

What? Does he kno-

You were confused and the door closed shut, finally closing the door to your feelings. To all terror. At least you hoped. At least that was how it felt like.

Wondering you laid on the bed, letting the moonlight shine on you, you stared the light directly in the face. No blinking. And you just laid there thinking. 

Celestial Bright...

True, how ironic, it was bright right now. Too bright but you were too lazy, too fatigued to stare away. 

This part of Celestial Bright, this area of the 'castle' was terrifying, it was not what Celestial Bright should be.  Shaotian he was-

"A spy, yes," the person came back and in the moon light their brown hair was reflected, their eyes were glistening.

"You were thinking out loud," he added when you didn't answer him.

You sat back up. This person... he wasn't trustworthy either.

"Does anyone else know about it?"

"No."

A simple answer and yet so many meanings behind it. Even though he knew, no one else did. He never chose to tell anyone.

"Who are you?"

"Wang Jiexi."

"Wang Jiexi from Celestial Bright..." it had a nice ring to it, somehow you were surprised, you knew he wasn't a good person, you knew you couldn't trust him, you knew he was dangerous, yet you were nothing than calm. No unwanted feelings were present.
