When I was a kid, I was very quiet. I was from a rich and famous family, but I was the strangest child in the family. I was quiet, shy and curious. Some families took a liking on me while other families despised my existence.

I spent my time with my family and relatives, as I barely had friends. But I spent most of my time with this one girl that I don't remember. She was talkative, childish and weird. She would talk about games, movies, discussions from the adults, and so on. This girl was wise with the outside world and due to my curiosity, I got deeply involved with her.

Until I found out her history. Her family, her faction. The other factions would criticize her family and her people, harass them and hurt them. They assume that they are evil because of their dark past and color, which ruined my connection and relationship with that girl.

Because I was actually having fun with someone that is 'evil', factions from different elements would assume that we are the same, treating us like we are nothing more than a nuisance, garbage.

Of course, the law of elements and connections changed as time went by, as factions don't hold affairs or grudges against one another, but the dark feeling still lingers, which leaves an idea to remove that lingering feeling.

To correct their assumption, the shadow faction would act hostile, making it look like they are corrupted and evil, which is nothing but a sacrifice.

A villain controlling a faction, only to be defeated from the hero, freeing the faction from the evil villain's grasp. That is the scenario that they dreamed for, and they were successfully. Everything that we have experienced, was nothing more but an act. A very realistic act. But did we move on from that huge scenario?

There is still many questions that are still unanswered.

Where did my parents go?

Why was my city burnt down?

Who died during this whole act?

What about Zaerak? Is him being Haruko's fiance an act?

Is my feeling of hatred an act as well?

Well, some of these questions are best not answered.

"Hey! Do you know where my suit is?" I call out, opening the bathroom door. My bathroom was connected to the master bedroom. We live in a medium size house in a clean and quiet neighborhood in a city far from our old city.

Now we live alongside with humans.

Haruko would be in the bedroom as I open the door. She is wearing her black dress, with her accessories on her wrist and a necklace that I gave her. A crystal necklace, that would shine from the the tiniest light, as if it's diamond- no wait, it is. She is in the middle of braiding her hair while sitting in front of the mirror.

"I think I left it in the dryer, hon. You can get it soon-" she looks at me. "Oh my- please put a towel on!" her cheeks slightly turn red like a tomato, but looks back at the mirror, continuing her braiding. I can see her smiling slightly, not heavily disturbed about it.

I forgot about that. I return to the washroom and grab a towel, wrapping it around me

I slip my tuxedo jacket on, covering my white dress shirt, choked with my black tie around my neck. The jacket gives a smooth feeling, giving a black silk color and a moderate amount of pockets. I hear a small thump coming from the room next over, but when I look over to see, I notice my son on the floor, with his suit on. His suit almost match mine, except his tie is red. I come to realize the situation he is in, as I notice him looking at me, with his head on the floor.
