Two days ago before I visited the earth . . .
Eliah's POV (at the unknown foreign planet which is kinda same with earth)
The sun is setting, I'm walking alone around the neighborhood and feeling the cool breeze from the air touching my hair. I saw an old lady sitting infront of the old convenience store was waving her right hand to me and asking me to have a short visit. I went there and sat right next to her, an rose fragrant is coming from her, it smell so nice.
"Eliah," old lady asked, wait- how could she know my name? then I responded her,
"Yes granny? What's wrong?"
"Could you take care of one task which I can't do anymore since I've aged a lot, makes me hard to go where I wanted to. None of my granddaughter visit me, they all are having fun at the Blue Island , which located at the opposite side of the island. Yet, very far from here. . ."
I feel really sad for her, because she is enduring a really hard time until now. So I decided to giving a hand to help this old lady.
"Sure! What kind of task is it?" the old lady smiles and standed up, she headed to a room inside the store. I see something on her both hands, I predicted if that is a thick book and a small note. She handed me both of it, but it's strange, the thick book feels really heavy and it weighed exactly like a big stone. I accidentally droped the book and the old lady face expression changed just in a second, she was really angry at me "DON'T YOU DARE DROP THIS BOOK! IT'S A PART OF MY SOUL AND YOU COULD EVEN KILL ME! SO . . ." /cough/ /cough/ "I better stop being this mad, I'm so sorry Eliah. . . just be careful with this book. This is a book which can help you completing the task. I want you to destroy earth, I will give you a strong magic power to destroy."
I was shocked of what just she said, destroying earth?! It's impossible! What kind of power that can make me destroy earth?!
"But it's nonsense granny! How can I even -" she closed my mouth by her hands, grabbed my hand and pulls me inside her store. "Pstt! Shut your mouth for a ahile, there's someone suspicious near here." granny slowly letting my hands and mouth go.
i hear some boots footsteps walking around the store . . .
"Hey, do you need to buy some alcohol for tonight's party?" a man asked. "Hmm...let's get in!"
The man grabs a basket to take some of the alcohol, after he finished, he takes a peek to see anyone looking at him. Me and the granny was hiding just behind the cashier table. I talked in a small voice, "Granny do you think he is gonna pay for that alcoholic drinks?" granny kept silent and took a peek, "Nope." He saw us and then run away while calling his friend.
"Dear Eliah, they are my enemy. I hate them, they makes me fired from the 'AOA Planet Investigation' which is my first job after I finished university because they lied that I steal their important document and they've took away my magic power to destroy the earth! That's why I wanted you to complete my favor :) can you help me? But you must find 3 gems from my granddaugters first to gain the power. I will give you money as much as you want!" she place her hand on my face with tears dropping from her eyes. "Let me think for a few days granny. I will comeback soon after I've decided." I walk away leaving the store and went to my house.
I filled the kettle with water and boil it.
/the water is boiling/
I poured into a mug filled with chocoa powder and I sat down on the sofa. Thinking what I supposed to do, how can i decide about destroying the earth. But, if I destroy the earth will I get any consequences? I'm afraid.
