Chapter 11 - Arieta awakes

Donald had been by Arieta's side since she had passed out eventually falling asleep at her bedside, all he wanted was awnsers to what happened, was something wrong with him? did she hate him and what was that weird blue energy? he had too many questions that just swirled around his head hill he fell asleep missing the important momet he had been waiting for for hours. with a flutter Arieta awoke with a start glancing around the room like she was looking for a monster hiding under the bed till her eyes fell upon the sleeping figure of Donald.

with a squeel she scuttled backwards to the edge of the bed in a fright but she was to hasty in the process falling off the other side of the bed with a tumble as she rolled over the wooden floorboards of the room. the sudden bonk to he head made her let out a quack in pain as she rubbed her head startling Donald back to consciousness."Arieta!"his head shot up from its slumped over position on the bedside a stream of slober fell from the corner of his mouth as he quickly wiped it off."I thought you would never wake up!!!" oblivious as always he lept forward to hug arieta who swiftly jumped out of the way with a shreek finally placing her bearings of her location a short sense of panic brewing within her.

"ahhh quak you-- your- a- a- a monster no-... demon-ekkk" Arieta's words tumbled from her lips as she scuttled to the other corner of the room glaring at Donald as if he was a wild animal that had broken in and taken his place. she quickly felt around the floor grabbing the only thing nearby a chair placed at the desk in the corner. she held it up like a shield as she glanced Back and forth drom Donald to the door warily" who the Duck are you quack!"she shouted a hint of anger in her voice." I thought you were better a nice person, not one of those trashy quack humans that run around like chickens with their head cut off. smashing and tearing apart everything in their wake quack!" the rage was bubbling over within her" you were kind but was that all a lie quack!?! were you just going to use me and gobble me up like that quaking fairy!!"

Donald tried to defend himself standing stack still not to threatening her anymore lest she was to do something rash. " I don't know what the hell happened! suddenly we kill that fairy and this blue thing was flying at me, i- o I don't know okay!!" Donald messed with his words trying to calm Arieta's outburst." I felt something strange and then I was gone how does that make me a demon!"

Arieta cautiously stepped to the left." lies! how would you not know quack! I saw that- that thing Quack!" she spoke with a vigor and emphasis he had not seen before she shook the chair as she remembered the vistage of the monster" huge quack. scaled and rough like a snake fethers like silvered razors teeth, so many quaking Teeth!" she began shouting unable to control her fear"too many heads with that neck that scratched the sky. it was an abomination QUACK! THOSE EYES THOSE black soulless eyes..." she slumped to the floor as if giving up against such a monster. with a voice so quiet Dante could barely hear her creek" they- quack, looked just like yours..." she looked up at his standing figure above her, his eyes she thought buetiful like a mysterious depth dark as void, appeared so empty now like a mindless, soulless beast ready to consume everything in its wake.

Donald was taken aback falling onto the bed behind him struggling to find what to say." what- what is wrong with me?" he fell onto his back covering his face with his arm." I finally thought I could live here in peace but that can't be can it?" he slamed his fist into the bed beside him. his emotions welled up within him bursting before he slamed his fist to try and reprieve his anger. a hidden strength suddenly bursting from his depths as if his fist was coated within a silver wing with scalled skin packed beneath the razor sharp fethers. they slammed into the sheets before vanishing leaving the bedsheets ripped apart like a hurricane his fist making a loud crunch as the bed creaked and cracked from the sudden powerful blow. he stared at his hand like it was not his own, something was inside him like a raging beast trying to tear its way out." What the FUCK DID HE DO TO ME!!" he bellowed in rage shooting up from the bead startling arieta who still thought he was about to eat her. he looked at her eyes vibrant while quaking in terror and he simply just stood up. turning away from arieta his words trailing behind him like a wisp of smoke."your right I'm a monster... I- just know- i" at a loss for words he looked saddened and defeated as he began walking out the door his last words a wisper to her ears just never wanted to hurt you."

as he walked out the door arieta reached out as if to stop him from leaving but the door slammed shut behind him and she fell down in saddness." I don't go quack." she was reaching out but she was too afraid to even try and understand him."he was so nice and I just quack! cast him aside like everyone casted me aside Quack! I'm no better than them QUACK!" she colapsed backwards against the wall bawling her eyes out like a child who dropped their ice cream, the amposhere was dead and he was gone.

Donald left a depressed look had fallen upon his face, he didn't even know who he was anymore, the strange power destroying the bed sent him over the edge. he was a mess and he just stumbled out the door of the inn with mere coppers in his pocket without much direction. he was lost and had just scared away the last person that cared."there you go you've done it again" his tone was berated as he slumped down to the ground along the roadside simply watching the pepole stroll by." you've destroyed everything and put those who care In harms way again I mean look at you!" Donald glanced down at a puddle by his side calm enough to catch a reflection. his face was cut by his white hair his eyes dark and empty, but inside he caught the faint reflection of a beast. it could of been a passing glance or a mirage for all he knew but for a second he could see it, gnarled beaks with countless teeth, scaled with razor fethers like a bird from the depths of hell.

just as Donald was to lose himself to his own mind and become the monster he was so thought to be a voice called out from his right" been a rough day? pick yourself up boy there's plenty more still to do!"

" What do you know what the he-" as he turned to see the owner of the voice his words stopped in their tracks. a tan skinned man with muscles the size of watermelons, he looked to coarse with power his muscles rippling. a chiseled jaw outlined his sharp face, a buzz cut wrapped with a red headband to keep out the sweat. his chest was bare his abs on display like his prized possession and 2 massive greatswords strapped to his back.

"pick yourself up boy wether on purpose or by chance you've landed in the world's shithole a Hotspot for all the rowdy bunch.everyone here is running from something or chasing their future welcome to the Adventures Guild!" the ripped man helped Donald to his feet the latter finally seeing the sign hanging from the side of the building a shield crossed by 2 swords. Donald looked the place up and down before following him through the door to try and grasp hold of his future.
