Yui and James look at Hilary as far as they could remember Hilary wasn't close to Nanala, Kristina and Olivia, the way she is acting now seems suspicious to them as they remember Nanala lasing out on her for something.
Hilary hated the gunman for humiliating her like this in front of everyone. Her knee is painfully throbbing from the pain. It seems to be broken and she won't be able to walk normally if it doesn't get treated soon. Now, in this situation someone telling her to crawl seems like a blunt insult to her but she can't fight or argue with someone who has a gun.
"I'm sorry." They heard the mick sound of sorry coming from Hilary.
"Good girl, at least you know your place. Let me help you out then." Gangster said with a sadistic laugh as if had something sinister in his mind.
"Carlo knock it off, this isn't time for you to act out crazy. We have to stay together with a calm mind and that girl is just a child, you are better than this." One of the gangsters said to Carlo seeing he is up to something that isn't good in their current situation.
"You know me Steve, even though we don't get along well but I'm better than this I wouldn't do anything bad to a little girl like her. I was just about to help her." Carlo said with a soft voice that isn't hard but not weak either, Steve and Carlo were never on good terms despite being in the same gang they can see this by the way they speak to each other.
"What a terrible injury you got, your knee cap seems to be broken." Carlo bent up next to Hilary's leg, he gently tapped his figure on Hilary's knee cap. Jolted pain spread throughout her body, Hilary whimpered in pain as Carlo slowly pressed his finger.
'Umm"
Carlo lifts up Hilary's leg with his and drags her towards the Nanala. Hilary couldn't control her pain and screamed at all as broken knee got stretched by Carlo and her face got bruised from friction on the concrete ground.
"Aaaaah… stop. I'm begging you to stop." Hilary no longer can endure such pain and screamed out loudly in pain.
"Carlo drop that girl's leg now." Steve said as he watches Carlo dragging the girl that just woke up few moments ago from her unconscious state, Carlo always been cruel and he likes to torture poor soul but this is going overboard for him.
"Carlo, this is my last warning to stay away from her." Steve said as he pointed his gun at Carlo.
"Fine, I'll do as you say." Carlo tightens his grip on Hilary's leg and pulls her leg backward, throwing her towards Nanala.
"Ahhhh…ummm." Hilary whimpered and cried as being thrown across concrete ground by her broken feet was one of the worst pain she went through.
"Enough of your shit, you shouldn't act so cocky or there will be consequences to face." James and George said in union their anger was clearly visible in their voice.
"What you are going to cry about then, don't act so high and mighty since your hands are just as dirty as mine. You guys are no different than me, we all are just a bunch of criminals including you Steve." Carlo said with an amusing smile on his face there's hidden madness coming out in this nightmare world, that he only used to show his victims in their last moments.
The darkness around them seems to be moving towards Carlo; his figure seems surrounded by the darkness. Steve, who worked with him in the same gang, also felt the slightest fear in his heart growing as he watched Carlo.
Carlo bent up and leaned towards Hilary's ears with a sadistic smile on his face as he unbothered by Steve aiming his gun at him, "I was wondering for quiet sometimes that I felt like I've seen your face somewhere before but now I remember who you are."
Hilary, who was crying in pain, opened her eyes wide open for a moment as she heard Carlo words, someone who knows about her is almost impossible here but someone still found her identity or he was just bluffing. She felt fear and an eerie feeling in heart growing again taking over her rational thoughts, slowly Hilary cried and died in silence as she closed her eyes not to look at Carlo's face.
Carlo walks back next to Steve again, only to see Steve glaring at him with hateful eyes. Well, it wasn't just Steve as everyone was looking at him with hateful eyes but for him that's the only thing weak can do in their life nothing else.
Since this darkness has befall upon them and alien monsters are running rampant on the sea port. Everyone is feeling despair, fear and helplessness in growing up. The eerie feeling is making their will to live lower as if they won't be able to witness another sunrise tomorrow but that wasn't the case for Carlo.
Carlo felt as if he was at the wrong place his whole life, only now he realises what he was searching for was here. He felt like the seed within his soul is finally growing and thriving here unlike others who fall into despair and are barely alive now in face of such calamity for them their spirit is being corroded by this darkness. The eerie feeling and despair is making their spirit and will weak for nothing could happen far worse than what already happened but this wasn't the end.
Thunderous resounded throughout the sea port everyone can hear loud and clear, the voice content force and will far beyond anything they have witnessed. Every word has power to invoke the powerful force of nature, the cold and eerie atmosphere once again turned hot and dazzling.
"The dazzling star's waterfall draws wisdom and will but the fish that dive upward may witness the brilliance and glory of the great old god. You who seek salvation in the corrupted ocean of this realm, let me be your guide, your shepherd that purges the filth and chaos from your soul."
"Solis firefall!!!"
As word fell into the silence the sky lit up by the scarlet light again the darkness around sea port faded back to where it came from but it seems to be more dazzling then before. Unlike before they didn't feel the fear to look at the sky as if whatever it was no longer there is gone but it raised one question then why they would create a new fire ball.
One of the workers with George felt curious to see what weapon the army is using to deal with these alien creatures but why make such noise that sounds like a spell. As he raised his head to look at the sky he found the answer he had but at what cost as he raised his head instantly his whole body caught on flames and burned him alive.
He didn't even get a chance to scream before he dropped dead on the ground like he wasn't alive a few seconds ago, everyone looked at workers burning corpses with fear in their eyes. All had different speculation about what might have caused his death but they were certain about one thing. He was killed by a human being and the thunderous voice they have heard might have been the reason behind his death.
The flames dance around the body as it slowly turns his corpse into ashes, all their attention was caught by the burning man that they forgot to check their surroundings but they soon came out of their shock by the hoarse blood curdling scream. They diverted their gaze towards where this scream came from and in front of them stood Nanala on her feet staring up in the sky while letting out blood curdling screams.
Everyone who was besides her awakened from their unconscious state and moved away from her with their blurry vision. Everyone was too scared to look at what's above the sky that those who stared at it got burned alive, for them Nanala was going to be burned alive just like the other man.
Nanala iris turns orange like erupting magma spreading across her mortal shell like cracked opened earth crust with magma. Magma spread across her body from her eyes every direction, as magma spread white steams came out of her body with the burning sound of her flesh that charred black burnt to a crisp.
Everything is too bizarre to be unreal and fake but they're witnessing this with their very own eyes, instead of burning alive from outside. It seems like her body is burning from the inside like an erupting volcano soon her body is going to explode with magma and flames. First one to get out from the shock was Carlo, just as he did he ran towards the main building. As the sound of footsteps running falls into their ears other start to run behind Carlo too.
They don't know what happened to Nanala but they were certain about one thing, she isn't coming back and there's no way for them to save her as her blood curdling scream died within a few seconds without looking back or above the sky everyone starts to run towards the main building.
