Killer of Gods

Alexei Poschesi

~ALEXEI~

I'm Alexei Poschesi 18 years old currently studying at the School of Celestial Arts. Looking at the mirror one more time before nodding.

"I'm going Lester take care of the house." I turn towards my dog patting him softly in the head.

It's a short walk from where I live but because I'm running late. I quickly took off as fast as I could, I can't be late on my first day of school the thought filled my mind.

THUD--

A heavy weight bump towards me as I was about to enter the gate.

"Look where you're going!" An irritated voice hist from a distance.

"I'm sorry "I replied, my jaw almost dropping when I saw how beautifully handsome the man is 'holy shi--' I almost cursed out loud.

tsk--

He commented leaving me in embarrassment.

I guess he is really famous all the students he encountered as he passes by seems to show respect to him. I concluded watching the guy leave. I felt a strong pang on my forehead similar that to a migraine making stop on my thoughts... AH!-- I'm gonna be late!

And it seems like the god of luck is on my side. I quickly found my designated room in the nick of time.

"Lexy~ over here!" a familiar voice called out to me.

It's Sarah my best friend luckily we're in the same class. I went toward her, taking the empty seat on the last row. "I'm really glad you're my classmate." I greeted her making her smile.

After the brief student introduction, the students were called out to the auditorium for a speech from a very important guess according to the teacher. We quietly sat in the auditorium and after a while, the lights went out taking everyone's attention.

"Dear students of Celestial Arts welcome may the heavens be with you."

A deep masculine voice began, as soon as he finished a stage light revealed the supreme god Taurus making everybody exclaimed.

'It's him..'

A voice echoed in my mind surprising me. Suddenly the pain came back turning my vision into a blur and, maybe I was mistaken but before passing out I saw his gaze locked on mine.

"Stop what do you think you're doing! "--who is it. An angry voice woke me up, I slowly opened my eyes finding myself in a dark place.

"Why are you so adamant in bringing her back?! The heaven punishes those who go against it the same apply to you." the same voice continued. Tracing the voice I found myself standing in front of two people but I can't seem to make out their faces.'How did I get here?' I shifted my gaze around the place. Only to find nothing but darkness. I continue to watch the scene unfold before me.

"Serena" the voice turned gentle. This time the scene changes revealing the man talking to a different person who seems to be his lover.

The woman gently smiled at him. But suddenly the scene changes again revealing that of a gruesome event.

"NOOO!--"I shouted trying to stop the scene from unfolding.

"Stop please--" her voice whimpered in sadness and pain.

"Alexei! Please wake up!" her friend continued to shake her to stop her from having a nightmare.

"Go now, I shall take care of this," I commanded at first she was hesitant but in the end, she nodded.

"Take care of her." she pleaded her voice trembling.

"I will, "I answered firmly signaling her to go out of her way.

I look at the person they refer to as Alexei, she continued to squirm, sweat dripping off her forehead.

"Interesting human."I scoff remembering what happened.

I felt a strong unusual gaze my way. I've felt anger, lust, and even fear towards me but this time it's different. What do they call this--if I remember correctly this feeling human refers to it as sadness. I paced trying to find the person and there I found her. Her gaze hinting a sense of familiarity. She collapsed a second before that. In my curiosity, I decided to follow her mortal friend who took her to the infirmary as they call it leaving a part of my shadow behind to finished the speech. I guess there is no need to change my appearance, I exhaled looking at the unconscious person. Shifting back to my human form.

"Venus.."

She mumbled under her breath making me stop on my track. It must have been my impatient nature but after hearing that name I felt a strong emotion rise inside me and before I realize it I woke her up squeezing her shoulders tightly.

"What did you say?!"

Alexei woke up to a familiar face.

"You?--"her statement cut off after seeing the man's troubled face.

"What did you say?! -- Say it again!" the man uttered in disbelief.

"What?"Alexei blurted in confusion making the man's brows furrowed.

"Your that guy... "Alexei pointed out remembering the man's face whom she bumped in the morning.

"You know me?" Taurus simply replied letting her go.

"You bump into me remember?" She replied innocently making him sigh in disappointment.

"You were having a nightmare." he continued changing the subject.

"Yeah" she replied lifelessly, looking around finally remembering what happened.

"I'm gonna go you should rest."He said one last time before walking towards the door.

Taurus was about to leave the room when a strange ray of light flashed behind him.

He turned back meeting the person he was looking for. "Serena..".

"Venus you should stop now. " -- the possessed Alexei said stopping the man on his track.

"No" he replied firmly his voice filled with bitterness.

"The lives that were lost because of me will corrupt us endlessly." Streaming tears cleansed her Alexei's cheeks.

Regaining her senses she felt the remaining droplets that went down her cheeks. But the man is nowhere to be found.

Frustrated, Alexei couldn't help but bite her lips. What's happening to me?

SOMEWHERE:

"So your full name is Venus Celestine." A playful voice remarked making Taurus frown in annoyance.

"Don't go there!" he warned in reply making the person raise his arm in a playful defeat.

"That Alexei person find everything you know about her." he continued tension written all over his face.

Alexei felt the exhaustion creeping on her.

SIGH.

"It's my first day yet I mess it up!" she complained frustrated at her feebleness. "Guess I'll just try not to mess it up tomorrow." Her voice determined. Before drifting into sleep.

The night falls with the lingering feeling of contempt due to the unusual dreams that cause her to lose sleep over and over again. She wonders if it'll visit her again and she wasn't wrong. The voice that continuously calls upon her visited her again.

You have to wake up. It isn't just you either, everyone needs to awaken or the people will die. They die and planet earth dies too. I won't leave you until you are awake. There is a way out of this mess. Your the only one who could save them now. They're dying..please remember!

Who are you?

Don't worry about that now, we're going to meet soon. When you finally remember.
