Have you heard about the story of the "haunted stone tower"

' during the war between Terabithia and wonderland

the citizens of the half moon were stuck between the battle field. they were helpless, their homes and crop fields were destroyed, so they had no food nor shelter. so they took shelter in Middle Earth. Middle Earth had three cities that were the size of One small country. they took shelter in Mordor the closest city

to half moon. the illiterate people spread rumors that

they are here to steal the information about the country and sell the information to other big country.

they said that to the king of Mordor but he didn't believe them and said " you have no right to spread rumors without knowing the truth". one night, they kidnapped 15 people of half moon with a pitch black cat. they tortured them for no good reason and eventually died. the hid the bodies of the 15 people inside the stone tower at Emerald City. they say that the black cat was left locked with the dead bodies inside the tower.'

Cecilia : be careful, if you fall I am not talking responsibility.

Kyoka : I won't, if I do then Luca will take the responsibility. besides he is a very responsible person

Cecilia : Nice.

" These mother and daughter are planning to push the blame on me " – Luca

Luca : I can still hear you.

Cecilia+Kyoka : we know. (laugh)

the stone tower has twenty three flours. two libraries , three bedrooms, one investigation halls,

two dark halls (where people are tortured). the other 15 rooms are locked.

"which floor are on now?" – Kyoka

Luca : we will be on the top floor soon.

there was various blood stains on the was that made a pattern.

Kyoka : the view is amazing.

Cecilia : it is indeed. I will tell you a fun fact, your father proposed to me in here. although it wasn't a official proposal.

Kyoka stared at her blindly.

Kyoka : what a good place to propose, great. (hopeless expression)

Luca : now shall we start what we are here for.

Cecilia : yeah, Kyoka you keep a little distance.

" shall the lords of evil and good seal the place from

looks of others " — Cecilia+Luca

suddenly there was a movement and it shook the walls. the glass items fell from the top and shattered into pieces. the aura of Cecilia and Luca surrounded the place not mixing together. all of a sudden, everything became silent.

Luca : that should be enough for now.

Cecilia : the demon Lords secret we must protect. (smile)

Kyoka : demon Lord? who? when? where?

Luca : i won't answer all that, just one question.

Kyoka : who was the demon Lord ?

Luca : your father.

Kyoka : no wonder he proposed at a place like this.

mother sure has good taste.

Luca : don't you think you are too shameless

Kyoka : maybe.

the went down to the ground floor. the place was rusted. it was a little wet since the window glass were broken, the rain water got inside. various tools were

shattered on the ground. the foul smell of blood stains where surrounding the place. they got out of the tower. they were about to leave when suddenly

Kyoka heard a sound.

Cecilia : what happened?

Kyoka : nothing, you guys go ahead I'm coming later

Cecilia : ok, dont take too long.

a creaking sound was coming from the thorn bush

at the side of the stone tower. getting close to it the sound gets clear. she bends down on her knee to get a closer look. after looking for a while she found a Pitch black kitten trapped inside the bush. It's eye was yellow.

" i won't ask any question cause i am not a idiot. "

she puts her hands in the bushes. the thorns cuts her hands from everywhere. the blood stained the thorns.

" By the way, why am i going through such pain for you."

" _____ "

"maybe cause you will at least be sincere to me"

the kitten resisted her hand. she tried to hold it again but it resisted.

" Listen, another time and i will leave you to die "

This time the kitten didn't resist her hand, she pulled up the kitten. she puts the kitten on her lap.

" you are not hurt are you? no there isn't a single scratch, pretty unfair "

suddenly a drop of water falls on her head ' huh! is it raining ' in a moment it started pouring heavily. she took the kitten got under a Banyan tree.

" yawn~, I'm sleepy. look at this cat it's already asleep. hey, wake us up when the weather is a little better"
