Ethereal Oblivion: A Demon's Battle

It Won't be Long Now

HE CANT LET HER GO.

THEY CANT DO THIS.

THEY CANT TAKE HER LIFE THIS.

Oh god her shrieks.

She's so scared.

She doesn't wanna go.

She doesn't wanna go.

Don't take her from him...

Don't take her....

Please...

He tried everything, but he just couldn't do it.  Countless attacks directed straight at the kitsunes, not willing to let her be taken into the void.  How could they do this to their sister.  Nerreza screamed and wailed as she was attacked by them, one after another they gnashed and drained her.

"S-SISTERS PLEASE!" She cried desperately, "ill change I-I'll.......I'll change I'll change" she tried to escape to no avail. "PLEASE I DONT WANT TO GO! I DONT....I d-don't....w-wa-" her voice broke off into a cry as she was trapped into a bubble. It shown of many colors in the underworld.

"YOU CANT DO THIS!" Asmoday erupted in a wave of terrifying nightmarish shadows of teeth and claw. Hitting Nefarious brutally in the side, causing her to loose consciousness for the first time a kitsune had. 

The others broke into panic, seeing what Nerreza's creation had done to their beloved sister.

"THIS IS WHY!" Vortex yelled at her, "YOU'VE CREATED NIGHTMARES."

Crimson shook, confused and afraid. She looked directly into Nerreza's eyes.  Her voice choked out..."N-No one shall have to feel our pain. And no one shall remember you." She became quiet.  "It is my purpose to destroy.....I shall now destroy you.....and our happiness."

Nerreza desperately lunged against the bubble, "Remember me my sweet demon...." her tears sincere. "Take care of them."

Then Crimson hit the bubble and it burst into thin air, locking Nerreza in the corrupted nightmare dimension, and erasing the memory of her forever.  Asmoday, would not forget.  He just stood still, he felt small, he felt weak.  He felt more alone than he ever had before.  He had no one that wanted him to succeed, no one who cared about him.  Still young, still learning. 

The anger inside of him came in such heavy amounts he simply collapsed down to his knees.  Crying heavy weeping tears, he had never done before.  He crumbled down to himself, crushed. He watched through tears as they tried to wake their unconscious sister.

Shall she never feel the love they stole again.

The other kitsunes took Nefarious carefully and fled away from the underworld...as if nothing happened at all.  Asmoday sat in that very spot for what very well could have been years, yet no time passed at all for him.  Lucky for the world.

He raised his hand and touched his cheek, tears were streaming down his face.....that memory was one he didn't truly remember.  But the hurt didn't feel any less.  Everything ripped from him, the only thing that cared....

No.

That very thing has ripped all that cared for him in a new time.  He himself had ripped away the love he had felt. Now, now he is lonely not because no one chooses to listen. But instead because he chose not to listen.

The memories keep chipping at him. Pulling and poking.  As if it would really matter in the end.
