A younger Sennca and Chrono watched in awe as their father’s personality changed into like no other. He was still with little movement. “T-That means a rainbow is coming…” he stuttered. Their mother quickly ran to their father tackling him down, just as he was barging to the door. “No! Stop! No more catching rainbows!!” she yelled. His eyes had widened; he moved like a madman, and then he saw it. The only thing in the world he truly cared about. That magnificent rainbow over the horizon. Seeing it only boosted his ambition to catch it. “Get off me! It’s going to get away!” She only clutched onto him tighter, watching as her children were captivated to the rainbow as well. They were blank; no emotion resided. The rainbow began to vanish within thin air, their father panicked. “No! Don’t go!!! It’s leaving!!!” With force, he pushed his wife unto the floor, and ran to it. Yet, it was simply not there. Anger risen as he walked back to his home. He began brutally abusing his wife. Sennca and Chrono watched, as screams echoed throughout the home. And soon, all that lay was a puddle of blood and….a mother.
