Nanala got awakened by the thunderous voice that just didn't resound in her ear but in her mind too, Nanala was afraid to look at the sky as warning given by the Yui before but despite that her eyes were still forcefully opened and her sight fall upon the brightly beautiful light up sky. She saw the dazzling fire falling from the sky like a waterfall. Each ember has its own brilliant light, flames fall like waves of terrifying power hidden inside with the most beautiful scenery. The scarlet orange flames dance alongside with the boundary of the darkness but not for long as light seems to be losing battle but currently flames are on their strongest form.
As Nanala's eyes fell upon white fish swimming up above towards the summit of the firefall but she couldn't see what's at the summit of the firefall. On closer look this white fish isn't normal as they look more like a person than a fish as these white fish came across from all directions and diving inside the flames, she felt sudden change inside her. Soon Nanala felt a sudden pulling force towards the firefall as something wanted to escape outside from inside her body to dive in the flames like fish in water and reached the summit where this firefall is falling from. Her mortal shell is hindering her soul from breaking free from her body and diving in firefall like numerous fish escaping from this prison of mortal shell.
Unable to break free from her mortal shell, her soul starts to become violent inside her body as her iris turns scarlet orange like magma and the white in her becomes charred black like charcoal. The magma veins spread across her body through her eyes like a river stream glowing as if it's on the verge of eruption. Pain of being burned alive wouldn't even come close to the pain she is going through right now as magma veins spreading throughout the body both on inside and outside. The painful hoarse scream soon became a voiceless silent howl of agony but the pain her mortal shell is feeling didn't get recognised by her soul as her soul is tearing apart to escape from her mortal shell. The pain of the soul being snatched out from the body far worse than anything else, she only felt the unimaginable and agonizing pain than what her physical body is going through.
It might seem long time but everything that happened to Nanala within seconds but none of this matter to other as they simply run away as soon as they witness this, they had simple mind-set to run from the things that can't be explained or frightening beyond their understanding and imaginations and that's also the simplest way to survive as most human survive by this mind-set.
Even if they stay and try to help them out, it still won't change anything as they would still be dead and they would just stand there helplessly watching them die and lowering their chance of survival by standing outside doing nothing instead of trying to find their way out of this cursed world. The ahead illuminated by the light lasted longer than the minutes, they all felt sudden change inside their body as if trying to pull them up at same time don't. They didn't understand or care to understand they all knew looking above will be certain unavoidable death for them. They run as fast as they can with their exhausted body. Trying to reach the main office building for shelter and clue for the return crystal.
A few minutes later they all manage to reach the main office building on port, it looks nothing like what's on their world. This one looks like a ruin of the past as the door and windows here are either destroyed, absent or broken beyond repair. The main door is destroyed by something they don't know but they could guess it must be a monster as their claw marks on the wall are as big as their head and none of them want to know what monster this might be or run into it.
Even though the world outside the building is illuminated by the light up above the sky but inside the building is completely soaked in darkness as if light from even sunlight won't be able to penetrate inside this darkness let alone this flame's light. Cold silent wind coming out of the building waving their hopes and willpower but they have no choice here other than going inside. Now, questions remain who would be the first one to check out the building. Most of them are reluctant to face such danger, they all know that guns are useless against the monster here, it's only effective against fellow humans. Even though they have guns with them it's just extra weight they are carrying around but it also gives them a false sense of safety.
Steve look at everyone with firm heart he turns to Carlo, "Carlo, I'm going inside first to check if its dangerous or safe, I want you to come with me and everyone else stay behind here and look out for any danger and if you anything call out my name and if light disappears get inside the building."
Steve enters inside the building first with tightly holding guns in his hands looking sharply around, if he notices any movements he's going to unleash the bullets rain on that. Just as he took a few steps inside his resolve and will power died down just as quick as it came. As they walked into the building turning their head around all they saw was darkness as light from the outside couldn't enter inside the building. The eerie darkness and silence inside the building makes him scared, the darkness seems to dance around him trying to lure him deeper inside the maw of nightmare creatures.
Suddenly a cold hand landed on his shoulder, Steve quickly turned around pointing the gun at the owner of the hand ready to shoot but the owner of the hand grabbed the gun muzzle quickly in sideways not to accidentally get shot by Steve when he was agitated in such a desperate situation for their survival. Under the light of the torch, he sees Carlo looking at him with a disappointed face.
"I always knew; you are a weak coward. In fear will turn against your own people, you almost shot me Steve but I didn't expect anything less from you after all you didn't climb the ladders like me but got that position through the connection." Carlo said in a mocking tone with his eyes looking down upon Steve.
"This isn't time for us to fight over these things Carlo, be sensible, we have to stay together." Carlo saw Steve ignoring his provocation as Steve avoided looking into his eyes but that also created another thought in his head that Steve is afraid of him.
"Its us, please don't shoot." Brandon said as standing behind him like everyone else and followed him inside. Even though Steve told them to look out for any danger outside, they felt unsafe as anxiety and fear taking over them as the same fate befall upon them as how the last two people die this sense of urgency comes from their instincts.
"Oh, I don't think we agree upon that but you changed your mind. Are you seeing this Steve , they're not following your words, such disrespect isn't something I would let go just like this?" Carlo said with a sarcastic tone at Brandon as they all walked inside the main office building.
"Carlo, let them be here and don't fucking say a single bullshit word again for moment. Just shut your damn fucking mouth." Steve had enough of Carlo shitty behaviour and bossing around, when he doesn't even have good leadership skills. He can't guide shit or lead anyone else with safety and caution.
Before Carlo could say anything they heard the sound of footsteps approaching towards them from the inside as someone or something getting closer to them, Goosebumps started to rise on their hands as inside this dark they couldn't see anything. Carlo and Steve pointed their gun at the sound ready to shoot if a monster came out, slowly Carlo started to take his steps back in case the monster did come out he won't be the first to get targeted as he stays behind the group.
Soon the sound of a few steps got really close as it was within a few meters but it stopped just right at that place with absolute silence in the room. Steve finger lingers around the trigger ready to shoot, sweat flows down from his forehead to his eyebrows as they dripping down on the floor. As he alone stood in front of the group leading them, he raised his feet to walk towards the noise but quickly rejected that idea and stood still at his position making a really hard decision whether to run away from here leaving everyone behind or stay with them and confront this unknown approaching threat.
"Ayooo, dawg you guys are tweaking right now, on sherm bullshit with a swing blick like ain't no man would do that in such a bat shit crazy situation." They were scared to even speak and didn't even dare to breathe hard enough in such darkness but now they felt like they just got scammed by their fear and relived at the same time as the voice belonged to the human. Even though they didn't understand what another human being said in one breath as the whole sentence ended in a second, how fast the word fell into their ear.
"Ayoo, look who it is. If it ain't that lil' nugget whity boy, we met at night Jashon? Boy, how the hell are you still walking around here looking like a twig snapping in the wind? These aliens ain't turn your ass into a cereal. Sheeit, you lucky or something!" Jaxon said in disbelief as he checked out Noah from head to toe, in case he is shapeshifting alien or about to turn into one.
