Chapter 32 - Chapter 32-Apocalypse [F.D.2] (1)

[Location: Siberia, Frozen Lake, Ice Caps]

[6:17 PM, July 9, 2849, CE]

In the broken ice caps of the Frozen Lake, you could see Alaya running at Mobius, whose body is soaked in blood. You could still see a little bit of tears in her cheeks, but it stopped as Mobius saw Alaya running into her, making her show a big soft smile, while Alaya is worried about what happened and why Mobius is soaked in blood.

As Alaya reached Mobius, she hugged her, noticing how sad and lonely Mobius really is when she's not around her. Alaya hugged her more tightly and looked at Mobius green eyes with worry.

"What's wrong? It's not like I'm really hurt at all, all of this blood actually came from those mercenaries and soldiers, so you do not have to worry" Mobius said as she looked softly at Alaya's worried eyes, telling her that she is not hurt at all, even a single bit, yet despite that, Alaya is not convinced by what Mobius just said.

"You big liar, I know your hurt, and it hurts very bad, so that's why I'm not letting you go no matter what until you say it" Alaya said as she hugged Mobius even tighter than before. Noticing that, Mobius looked at her in with still the same soft face as she felt Alaya's hand get tighter in her waste as Alaya seemed to don't want to let her go at all.

"I'm really okay, Alaya. I'm not hurt at all, not even a single bit. I'm already strong enough that even anti-matter energy could not hurt me anymore, even not using essence" Mobius said, trying to make Alaya lessen her worries, but it's seeming it did the opposite, as it made Alaya more worried about why she felt Mobius was in pain, and it was too much pain that Mobius hides. Even if Aria and Joachim could not feel it, but Alaya could feel it.

"No, I won't let go. You're the person I love and remember when you named me? I am your abode or dwelling, your other consciousness, from that day forward, so I know I can feel it. You are in pain. Please say it to me. Let it out. After all, seeing my beloved in such pain is making me suffer just seeing it. So, please don't fear me. I don't want to be alone. Please, Mobius" Alaya said as she cried while tightly hugging Mobius. Seeing this, Mobius also cried. She let out her pain. It was too much. Even for her, it was reliving a horror countlessly. A horrible memory is painful, but seeing Alaya cry because of her pain made Mobius even sadder as she also cried.

Alaya and Mobius are similar in many cases in that they would always hate themselves if they saw the people they loved cry in pain or hide their pain from them. For them, the wellbeing of others came before their own wellbeing. They both know that, so if ever one of them hid their pain, they would always feel it. It was in their nature to take care of and do what's best for someone they loved, even if it meant the person they loved would hate them.

"It hurts Alaya. The memory keeps coming, it hurts, I don't want to remember it, it hurts a lot, it keeps repeating over and over again. I thought I was strong enough to ignore it, but I cannot. It just hurts so much. It's because of me. Because of me, they all died. Uncle Roland and Uncle Philip died, and I was all alone. It hurts. It's all because of me" Mobius said as she recounted her experience of how much it hurts the past for her. It repeats every time she finally remembers what happened in the past to her. It's a nightmare that will always repeat even if she's awake or asleep.

"Don't worry, because I'll always be by your side. Forever, even in death, I'll be by your side. Your nightmares shall become me, and your reality shall become me" Alaya said as she looked at Mobius's crying face. For everyone to see this, they might say that Mobius is in great pain, but for Alaya, this is more than pain. It was all about love, and she knows that because what Mobius truly wanted was love, that's the reason why she even started building the Mobius Tower. It was to find her love, which she had ever wanted ever since that apocalypse.

"Countless essence users they attacked me trying to kill me, I don't know what to do I was scared, I saw their face it was angry at me, I can't control my body everything I've done was kill and kill and kill essence users fall down like flies as I also killed their family the people they loved as more of them came and more died again, I saw it, I was conscious I could feel their flesh collide with me as it splatters in my body elderly, man, woman, child, and even a baby is not spared, It's disgusting I want to die I want someone to kill me, when I finally have control over my body they want to kill me and my sister, my sister is innocent she hasn't killed anybody just why? Why? Did I kill her? Please tell me Alaya Why d-" Mobius said her words were cut off when Alaya's finger touched Mobius lips. Noticing this, Mobius looked at Alaya's face, which is also crying. Seeing this stopped Mobius from speaking more painful things from her past, the more she said it, the more she remembered it. That's why Alaya stopped her from speaking it, as she too felt it. It was painful Mobius emotions and feelings. She could feel every single emotion she was currently feeling. Now she felt it like a tide of negative emotions drowning her in despair and false hope. That's what Mobius felt as Alaya too felt it.
