Chapter 27 - WHAT!

I stared into the skies loosing track of the time. The clouds were already changing back to their original colour.

"Lee" I heard a soft voice calling, it was valnor's and he was looking like someone who's mind is laden with saddness

"ever since I left my town to figure out what is going on, more and more mysteries keep pouring in" I told him with tiredness

"truly understanding all the situation here is my part to play and I do understand it, your days have been quite messy but it doesn't mean we aren't here for you" smiling was always his thing and he was always looking more handsome when smiling

"by no manner of means would we ever give up" Williams said coming to where I stood.

It always feels good when you have friends who you can talk to and they would listen, no matter the time or situation

"thanks you so much..... but I want to go for a walk" I told them and as usual, I was warned not to go far or deep into the forest. Especially with all which is happening

Without another word, I went into the calm forest. Of course my gun is always by my side and it's always loaded

The forest was relaxing and enjoyable to watch mother nature's miracle. I let out a deep sign before sitting down close to a stream

Again, another memory flashed but this time I could see it only for a short time.....

..... there were green grasses and it looked like I was in a field but lavender grew everywhere

"Lee"

I heard a feminine voice call my name, turning back it was a woman with an overflowing gown. She was in her late twenties and her smile wasn't fading a bit

"Lee, let's go you've been playing since the morning time and a storm is coming" the woman held my hand and I could slightly hear my tiny voice tell her something

"Mom I want to play longer, the rain can wait..."

But before I could finish speaking, a heavy black lightning struck right in front of me

"LEE!"...

That was all I remembered for the very moment. The woman who I called Mom screamed my name.

"memory flashes?" I turned back only to see valnor leaning on a tree, his handsome face not reducing a feature as some sunlight hits his face, He was surely a stunning man

"Yes, few flashes for some while" I told him tucking some strings of hair behind my ears as he sat closer

"You know" he explained, "it's actually good for you to see those flashes of memories, it helps you remember the past more properly"

I shook my head and stared at the relaxing waters, it was really awkward for only both of us to be alone and he was really close to me

"Lee" he called and when I turned, his face was actually a not far from mine, but still not close

"hmm?" it was an odd way of answering, but what else was I supposed to say when I saw his eyes in a lovely way

He was silent for some minutes....

"Lee, I really like you"

I felt my soul leave, he actually gave me a jump.

"Oh..." it was clearly obvious how he did behave close to me, all those sweet smiles means something really. I knew he liked me from the very start when I met him on the ship

"you don't have to give me your answer now, it is actually a tiring situation we are passing through now.... So, no need" he smirked and I could only turn away, to prevent him from seeing my red face

But as I was about to say something, a terrible explosion occurred right in front of us making me fall right backwards with a force enough to break the spine

From the explosion, a dark creature emerged.

It was a demon with the loudest roar ever.

Valnor furrowed his brow angrily as he helped me up

"That's a real big demon!" I exclaimed seeing it's great size. The skies got red again

"WHAT IS GOING ON!"I said looking around as the entire forest was going ablaze....

My heart beats were going crazy, everything was going wide with fire.
