Even after having killed countless numbers of them, Alexander Silva was still unable to say with any certainty whether the situation would change. The battlefield was in chaos and despair. The deafening roar of explosions filled the air, as cracks opened in the earth beneath the feet of their warriors.
Gaia, the mother of all, who had protected her children for eons, was engaged in a titanic struggle against the attacking forces that threatened to devour her essence. The world shook and cracked as the battle intensified, and the pungent smell
Dust and blood filled the air.
Alexander, with his twin swords, one in each hand, looked towards the chaotic star sky. He knew something was terribly wrong. The ground beneath his feet shook like a violent earthquake, and he could feel Gaia's life energy fading rapidly. Desperation clutched at his heart, and he could feel the tightness in the air. At that moment, a majestic figure emerged from the complete chaos. Velet, Big Brother, the first of all, and the first son of Gaia, descended from the heavens with an aura of incomparable power. His luminous eyes scanned the battle as he addressed Alexander. When his psychic connection was in range, he sent him a message.
—Alexander! —Velet thundered, in desperation with his resonant, melodic voice like thunder in his mind — We can't keep this up much longer! Mother is weakened! We must reach her or the world we know will collapse!
Alexander nodded, feeling a mix of determination and fear. He knew they should move forward, but the fear of uncertain fate stalked them, like a cold biting wind.
In his short distraction, without warning, a dangerous enemy emerged from the mountains of corpses that surrounded him. A demonic being, with claws
sharp eyes and eyes burning with malice, she rushed towards him with a ferocious impulse. It was a deadly attack, and Alexander would have no time to defend himself. In that critical moment, like a ray of light, Kyle stepped in with an act of unwavering bravery. Using his mystical abilities, he created a shield of light that blocked and repelled the demon's attack. However, the cost was high; the monster managed to wound him deeply before being expelled.
Alexander, filled with anguish, ran towards Kyle. Tears mixed with sweat on his face as he held his beloved in his arms. Kyle's wound glowed ominously.
Alexander tried to heal him, but Kyle stopped his hand, it was not the time to waste his energy, because he knew that his origin core had been irreversibly damaged.
—Kyle, you can't die — Alexander whispered breathily, his voice vibrating with desperation and a trace of hope—, not now.
Kyle smiled weakly, his eyes meeting Alexander's bright, beautiful ones. Love and sadness shone in his eyes, like twinkling stars on a dark night.
—Honey, you have to keep going —Kyle murmured, his voice barely above a whisper, but echoing in Alexander's heart like an eternal melody—. Gaia needs your help.
Alexander nodded with a broken heart. He knew Kyle was right. But before he could say anything else, Kyle used the last of his strength to struggle to his feet. He looked deeply into Alexander's eyes, and the world seemed to stop, as if the
time itself surrendered to that moment.
—Alexander, listen —Kyle whispered, with a fervor and love that transcended time and space, like an eternal promise—no matter what happens, I will always be with you. You are my light in the darkness, my reason for being.
Alexander fought back tears as Kyle positioned himself in front of his beloved, reached forward and using all of his remaining energy, created a flash of light that illuminated the path for Alexander. It was a path that eliminated all nearby dangers, but also the last act for his beloved.
—You are the one who changed my life, that's why I love you beyond words —Kyle turned his body, and approached his beloved.
—Alexander go. Do not give up. Move forward —Were Kyle's last words, while with his hand he wiped away the tears of his beloved, while the bright particles enveloped him, his fate was imminent.
And then…
