Vermillion

Chapter 25: As a Friend

Titan begins to explain why he came.

" My father was one reason the other...is I was told by a maiden that my death was near. That I would die where I was happy." Spoke Titan.

" Hmm...why are you telling us this?" Asked Johnny.

" Cause I believe she was right , I'm dieing where I was happy... Solaris was like a family to me. It's the perfect place for my death." Answered Titan.

Johnny begins to think back to the time where Solaris was first created.

4 Years Ago.

It was a raining day, silent as the midnight hour. Johnny and Shadow were walking around looking for people to join them in the fight for peace. Not many people wished to be apart, since they knew T.A.S would target them. Though nameless they still tried to spread the word. One day came when Shadow witnessed a crowd surrounding a man. He wondered why so he went to see.

" Get out you demon! You don't belong here!" Shouted the crowd.

Johnny then came to see aswell. What he saw was a man and a little girl soaked from the rain. They pleaded for food. Johnny couldn't bare the people not doing anything and spoke.

" Why must you all ,treat others with such disrespect. We all have hearts we all look alike. So why do you all discriminate against what race someone is. There will never be peace if we continue to hate." Spoke Johnny.

The crowd starts to walk away. The man speaks.

" Thank you.." He Answered.

" No need. I was just sticking up for someone in need." Spoke Johnny.

" I must be going now..thanks again." The man Thanked.

Shadow grabs the man by the shoulder and says.

" I heard you asking for food ,why don't you and the girl come with us." Said Shadow.

" Thanks, but I don't wanna cause trouble." Answered The man.

" No no its not a problem!" Spoke Johnny.

" Well I guess , but I'll leave after the meal..." Said the man.

" Verywell!" Shouted Johnny.

The four head up the mountain through some woods and up ahead stood a mansion.

" Woah...what a place " The man spoke in awe.

" Yea.. well now you can see we got room if you don't have a place to stay." Said Johnny.

" Really would it be fine?" Asked the man.

The little girl starts to shiver.

" Look you can stay for as much time as you need." Said Shadow.

" Thanks a lot.." Thanked the man.

" Hey so what's your name?" Asked Johnny.

" It's Titan and Yours?.." Asked Titan.

" Hmm mine is Johnny Vermillion." Answered Johnny.

" You can call me Shadow." Replied Shadow.

" Okay well Johnny I thank you for helping us." Spoke Titan.

" Ugh no need to thank me, haha" Laughed Johnny.

" So is she your little sister?" Asked Shadow.
