Chapter 9 - Kate and Lina 09

The darkness of the now old storage room that was being used for that statue of Kate and Lina. It was so old by this point that it was forgotten by most who work there at the moment. In a way, they were been kept out of everyone's eye for various reasons but it was mostly anything they were once used for. There were now others that had taken that place for them. Be that they getting used for instilling false hope, and confusion, or even being used as target practice. These various things the twin statues were once used for are now being done by others. Those that do not raise as many questions as them nor pose as many risks either, be them genuine or merely harmless delusions that were once had once upon a time. Collecting dust in this storage room had been the only thing they had been doing for decades at this point and time. The oldest statues that were tucked away in the oldest storage area of the place where eventually all the others that had once been stored in any of the storage rooms were removed be it the weapon their soul had turned into was finally acquired by someone or they were scrapped for being a dud.

The door to their storage room is open but rather than an employee or staff member who worked there doing it themselves. Instead, it was a new person that was never seen around here before though they only brought trouble with them and they made it double by having the group at their back on their orders. Wiped out everyone here without mercy or the chance to even fully understand what was going on in the first place. This became the site of the indiscriminate and brutal slaughter of people or in other words basically massacre. 

The group then walked up to where the twins were located in the old storage area which was empty out of long before the leader and their group arrived. The only ones that were left behind were the twins. This group had come here not use to wipe out everyone that was present be it if they were working here or were just in the wrong place at the wrong time. This group was here for all the sentient weapons that were stored here and the statues of the unclaimed ones as well. Their status as unclaimed left them in the mystery of being truly unclaimed or just being duds that have yet to be revealed and/or labeled as such. The group's leader wanted to get a better look at the infamous twin statues that they had heard so much about directly. After getting a good look at them they were not impressed to the point where they were not even interested in claiming them like they had all the others that had been here.

It was just like that that the twin statues were left behind alone on a pedestal that they had been placed on previously at some point. They would remain here for centuries merely collecting dust as the facility around them falls to ruin all around including what was once located on the surface. That was the first to go as the place was demolished to the ground once everything of use was stripped and taken. 

A forest began growing in the area where the facility was once located. Nature reclaims the land that was once there before humans came along and cleans it out for their own purpose. The ceiling about the twins was very weakened over the centuries from the formation of the forest directly on top of them. However the twins in a sense luck out as the ceiling did not collapse on them just yet allowing them to be buried like what happened to some of the other areas. Eventually, the ceiling above the twin statue's heads did collapse but interesting enough the only thing that fell through. It was not a ton of dirt or anything that would bury them underneath but instead, a guy that was falling directly above them. 

The person fell down from the ceiling after falling through the ground above. Falling directly over top of the twins that were sitting down below. 

The pedestal they were sitting upon was actually the floor that was once part of the room they were originally transformed into. Turns out not only could they not be awakened they were also extremely heavy far more than any other statue. Moving them directly was a pain but for some reason moving the floor around them was a piece of cake. Thus that is why they were on a pedestal as it was just a slab that the floor they sitting on was placed on

Dust and cobwebs covered their form as they had been in this abandoned room for centuries after all. However, that was about to change as they flailed their limbs as he fell down tried to grasp at anything, and came in contact with the twin's held hands with his own. Using that to push himself away so that he crashes into the ground rather than directly on top of them instead. 

After crashing into the ground the person goes unconscious from the landing he makes. Though such a landing would be something to be thankful for after falling from such a height and making such a landing being unconscious would be considered lucky as an alternative was being dead after all. Even if a person had survived a fall from such a height landing wrong could have killed them still. There was a cracking sound that was heard through the room as they landed though it did not come from the now unconscious person on the floor.

The sound of crack as it comes from the statues of the twins. Something thought impossible was happening as the weapon that had laid dormant within both had been awakened by this person and thus he was chosen as their owner. 

The cracking continued as the pieces of the twin's statues fell to the ground slowly revealing the weapon that was hidden within their shell this entire time. They were indeed a dual type weapon where they were both in the form of a set rather than being individual weapons.
