"So this is your room?" Lilith asks while buzzing all over the place. In my ongoing mission to monitor her at the urging of the witch in my head, I ended up in a cheerleader outfit yesterday. The worst part is that I apparently looked amazing in it. At the end of that little escapade, I asked Lilith if she wanted to come over to my house the following day. We don't have training today so it's a good opportunity. I couldn't really come up with a reason but she didn't seem to care too much. With Satoshi not here and Allister opting to leave for the day for reasons he refuses to give, we have the whole house to ourselves. And even if she is connected to lord star fall somehow, this will hopefully not be too awkward.
"Yeah. Sorry if it's a bit of a mess." Although I had tidied up in preparation for this, I'm pretty sure that's just what people say when others come over. I wouldn't know I don't really have people over that often.
"Oh no your fine." She answers me in an almost dismissive tone and a slight head tilt. Well that's good. I think. "Wow. You sure have a lot of manga." She notes while looking at the shelf with my normal amount of manga. Although what do I have to compare it to? Have my standards been messed up this whole time?
"I guess so." So like, do I just ask if she's evil and working for lord star fall? There's a short silence between us.
"I always find it interesting whenever I come to zone W." She eventually says.
"How so?" I ask while sitting on the chair by my desk.
"It's the zone with 1 of the lowest populations, plus the lowest intervention from the government. It honestly feels like a completely different place.".
"Yeah, after Japan fell we became the last of its culture. It's why mr Ryuji is so adamant on me speaking Japanese when I can get away
with it." I really should invest more time into that.
"Can you understand this?" She asks casually. The shocking thing is that it's in perfect Japanese.
"How do you know Japanese?" I ask in the same language.
"I read someone's mind a while back and they knew it. I downloaded it into my mind and here we are." She answers while twirling her
golden hair.
"Wow! You really are a genius!" She's so amazing.
"Heh. I'm way more of a genius than you think! Check this out!" She boasts before placing her tiny hand on my forehead. I'm a little confused for a second before my mind is flooded with a memory. Only it's not a memory I've ever had. It's of Lilith sitting in front of a computer made for her size. On the screen was a game of chess , when Lilith pressed a key to move a piece the screen suddenly read 'checkmate'. I'm suddenly pulled back to reality after that trippy experience. Lilith looks at me with a proud smile. It makes me feel really bad for what I'm about to say.
"I don't get it. You beat a chess game?" I can almost hear her confidence shatter.
"What? How can you not see how impressive that was?! That was the worlds most advanced chess algorithm and I beat it like nothing." She places her hands on her hips in frustration.
"Oh. Yeah that is pretty impressive. Its just that you didn't really provide context.".
"Fine! How about this?!" She flies over to my sketchbook and takes picks up the pencil with some effort. I think she could have used one of her abilities to do it easier but she seems focused on other things. After a minute of me being nervous of someone else being near my sketchbook, she floats away so I can see her work. A bunch of letters, numbers and mathematical signs. Also brackets. Lots of brackets. She once again looks very proud of herself.
"So does this mean anything?" I don't know what any of this means. Once again she looks very offended.
"Urgh!" She groans in frustration. Does she hate me now? Oh no she hates me! "Anyway, how about you show me some of your art?" Her demeanour suddenly changes to a much happier 1. A little jarring but I'm not
gonna complain.
"Um, ok." I'll admit to not being the most comfortable when it comes to sharing my art, but it would be impolite if I didn't. I take the sketchbook and flip to the first page. It's a drawing of a large centipede like Kaiju.
"Wow. That's so cool" she really thinks so? The next 1 is a kaiju based on a combination of a dolphin and a shark. While aquatic kaiju
aren't a thing, they'd probably look cool. After that is Raven. Wait no! I quickly flip to the next page. "I feel like I've seen that 1 before. Didn't Kaiju boy have one like that?" Oh boy.
"No he didn't. He's was black while mine is a very very dark blue." Nailed it.
"Right. So let's look at…" she stops when she sees the next drawing. This 1 is a little different. A humanoid with a yellow, bug like
exoskeleton. Feet and hands replaced with claws while the mouth was covered by
a faceplate that would open to reveal mandibles. Eyes that were pure yellow were accompanied by yellow antennas with red at the end, just like how the arms are red. The part that makes me realise why she stopped was the fact that it had long, flowing gold 'hair'. Although that's a little inaccurate. It's actually meant to be gold dust that's in the shape of hair. I now remember that she had been the inspiration for this 1. And only now am I realising how creepy that is. Could she sue me for this?! "Why did you draw something like this?" She asks with no emotion apparent in her voice.
"It was a long time ago and I was inspired to draw this by you." I explain while my heart beats faster and faster. I feel the same pressure coming from Lilith as the competition. Like before, it's suffocating.
"Is that all? You didn't get this idea from anywhere else?" She is gonna sue me!
"Yes." I mange to squeeze out.
"Ok. Please don't show this to anyone else ok?!" She suddenly becomes happy again.
"Yeah. Of course." That seems reasonable.
"So anyway." She starts. "You seem pretty interested in Kaiju Haruo." Wait a minute. Wait 1 gosh darn tooting minute. Liking Kaiju isn't normal! Because Kaiju are the biggest threat to human life! Ok, I need to change the subject otherwise she'll think I'm some kind of edge lord.
"Do you wanna play a game?" Smooth. No edgelord would ever say that.
"Yeah I guess." That actually worked? We walk down the spiral staircase and sit on the sofa. Well, I sit on the sofa and she sits on
my shoulder. Underneath the short table we have between us and the tv, I pull out some board games.
"Which 1 should we play?" There's not exactly a wide selection. Honestly given that I don't really play board games and Satoshi is barley here I'm not even sure why we have these.
"How about we just play chess?" That could work. I haven't played in a long time but it can't be that hard can it? After 3 losses in a row I can confirm that it's actually quite hard. "Wow. Your really bad at this." She says while trying to hold back a laugh. She fails miserably.
"Well what did you expect? Your apparently a super genius and I'm not that smart." Even though it still stings, I'm surprised I don't
feel all that bad. Lilith looks really cute when she's happy. Wait, why did I phrase it like that?
"Not 'apparently' I am a super genius. I just beat you 3 times in a row!".
"That really not all that impressive." I respond
nonchalantly. She looks offended. Gosh darn it Haruo.
"First of all, your very smart. Second of all, I'm way smarter than you! And since your very smart, me being so much smarter than you is impressive!" Not entirely sure why she's lying but I just nod to appease her. She still looks mad though. What should I do?
"How's Misty?" Changing the subject worked last time. Let's give it a go.
"She's fine I guess." She responds despite clearly still being mad. "She made a folder for all your cheerleader photos." What? "You still look really cute in it." She says with an evil smile on her face.
"I'm never going to live that down.".
"Oh come on. It's not that bad." It is in fact that bad. "But she seems quite happy with it. Especially since it came just before she had a binge of old martial arts movies.".
"I didn't know she liked that sort of thing." To be fair, what even do I know about Misty? Does it make me a bad person if I barely know
anything? I should try and fix that at some point.
"Oh yeah. She's a massive martial arts nut. It's pretty hard to keep up with but if your looking to lose an hour you should ask her about it." I see. What valuable information. It seems my super spy instincts are kicking in.
"I'll be sure to ask her about that sometime.".
"How about your friends?".
"Huh?".
"How are your friends doing?" I did not expect to be asked that. I can't tell her about Allister. Do Lola and Boba count? Does Howlett? Oh no I'm a horrible friend!
"Oh yeah they're fine." She's going to ask for more detail you stupid idiot!
"That's good to hear. I'm glad you've come out of your shell recently." What's she talking about?
"What do you mean?". I'm not a turtle.
"Well you used to barely talk to anyone. Then a while ago you became a little more open with others. Not a lot mind you. You still look like social interaction is like uranium for you." That seems a little much but ok. "What happened to cause that change of heart?" Well I found a wand that's basically magic that gives me an outlet to not feel completely useless. But I can't really tell her that.
"I'm not sure. I just talked a bit more I guess. Not really any particular reason." I tell her. It feels really bad to lie.
"Well I'm just happy that your happy." Wow she really is just super nice. I kinda expected this was going to be harder but there's no way someone like this could be evil right? I'll have to let Louhi know next time I dream of her. I've just realised how weird that must sound.
"Now that I think about it, your really nice Lilith." Her face goes pink when I say that. I guess she has that cold again. "Why does Shen keep trying to fight you?" I hadn't really thought about it until now.
"Because he's a bully I tell you!" She seems quite invested in this topic. I hope I haven't touched a nerve. "He's offended because I have the number 1 spot and he doesn't! Just because I worked hard to get here doesn't mean I'm going to let someone take it while I'm not looking!" Something about that sentence doesn't seem right but I don't really think she's thinking straight.
"I see." I guess that checks out with what I've seen so far. But something just isn't adding up. Maybe I'll look into this another time. "I
guess it makes sense that you take your position seriously.".
"Well of course. We're Kaiju children, weapons for the defence of humanity. If I have the power to do the job then I have to. Especially if no one else can." I think I misheard that last bit but I don't ask her about
it. I'm stuck thinking about that first part.
"What about the ones who can't do the job? The weak ones?" I already know what she'll say. My healing is still a job that I do. But that's not really the point. I was born with expectations already placed on me and now
I have to be alone at the back. Behind everyone else while they do what society
expects them to do. They get to feel useful.
"I mean, that's up to them isn't it?" Huh? "If the weak can't do a job that they're expected to do then that's the fault of the institution that places those expectations on them. People like you shouldn't have to feel the way you do." This has gotten a lot heavier than I was expecting it to. "You should be able to do whatever you want." I'm not really sure how to respond to that. How applicable even is that to me? It's not just the fact that I'm the weakest Kaiju child, I've also got to defeat lord star fall. But I obviously can't tell her that so what do I say?!
"I um, I didn't know you were so opinionated on this." I scratch the back of my head.
"I mean, yeah. Even if we are on the different extremes of the system we are still both Kaiju children. We were born with special powers,
there's never been anyone like us and no one knows why we're like this. We're all expected to fight giant monsters because apparently that's what we were born to do. I just happen to be the best at it." She looks almost angry as she says this. But it's not the anger I felt earlier. It feels almost premeditated, if that makes sense. I know it doesn't but I have no other way to explain it.
"It's just how things are I guess." I almost cringe as soon as I say it. I may not be the sharpest tool in the shed, but even I can tell
that's not what I should have said.
"Haha yeah. It certainly has more pros than cons for someone like me." She answers as she gazes at her hand, crimson like blood. "I'm the most powerful, intelligent and beautiful person on the planet. Insect queen gives me more abilities than I know what to do with. I'm basically a 1 woman righteous league." What an obscure reference. "I can get free stuff whenever I want, everyone loves me and have I mentioned yet how beautiful I am?" Yes. Also probably shouldn't tell her about Allisters opinion of her.
"Plus your really restrained. You basically have telepathy but you never use it without consent." Lilith seems to twitch intensely when I say that. Oh no, did I say something wrong?
"Haha yeah. It would be really funny if I just said that to get on someone's good side while I actually use it for really petty stuff.".
"That would be really funny." It's a strange joke but I appreciate the creativity. Lilith lets out a sigh as if she'd just avoided an awkward conversation. But weird to do that out of the blue but who am I to judge?
"Sorry to be a bother it could I get a drink?" Lilith asks politely.
"Yeah of course." I stand up and walk to the kitchen. "Would you like squash or water?" I ask as I get a glass and then stop. This is too
big for her. She would have to know that. I mean, she must have some sort of method to drink things. Even if she had her own stuff prepared I'm sure I've seen her with normal sized drinks before. Why is this the thing that's catching me off guard?
"Everything ok?" I guess I'm taking too long.
"Yeah." I turn to respond but the shadows don't talk back. Wait what? I'm not in my house anymore. I'm in a black void. The only light coming from a massive pink flame behind a few dozen pure black silhouettes. It's only now that I realise that despite there being a fire here I'm freezing cold. Am I in 1 of those Louhi dreams? If so then where is she? "Who are you?" I ask but once again get no answer. My heartbeat quickens as I grow more afraid. 2 of the shadows start to walk towards me their eyes starting to glow blue and orange respectively. I step back as my mind races, trying to come up with an explanation. Is this like a Louhi dream but from someone else? Who else even could do this? Is this lord star fall? Would I still be alive if it was? "Stay away." I warn weakly as the duo gets closer.
"Haruo." A voice says my name, seemingly coming from every direction. It's strange, the voice is familiar and yet I don't know who it
belongs to. It's distinct and yet I can't even place the gender of the speaker. I look around and finally look behind me. Staring at me are hundreds upon hundred of pink eyes. But these ones don't strike fear like the others do, because I know who they are. My kaiju. Every Kaiju I've made and every Kaiju I've even thought of is here. It's reassuring to say the least. A feeling I'll definitely need when my head starts to feel like it'll split in 2!
"Haruo!" Another voice calls my name. Or maybe it's the same voice. I don't know! Everyone just leave me alone!
"Stop." I mutter weakly as I wake up. I immediately take in my surroundings. I'm in my bed, it's still day but clearly later and there's an almost imperceptible weight on my chest. I look down and see that it's Lilith. Did she bring me up here? That's so kind of her. She even waited here while I only caused her trouble. Gosh darn it Haruo.
"I'm glad your finally awake." Lilith sits up on my chest. "What happened to you?" Her eyes are filled with concern despite the pure
black.
"I must not have gotten enough sleep." I lie, hoping that she doesn't dig deeper. "It's not a big deal.".
"It is a big deal! You passed out!" It's still impressive to me how someone so tiny can have so much authority. "You need to take better care of yourself dummy!".
"Your right. I'm really sorry Lilith.".
"You better be!" Should probably change the subject again, it's been working so far so maybe I'm on a lucky streak.
"I didn't end up telling you why I like Kaiju." I look up at the ceiling as I talk.
"That's not really important. You literally passed out." I ignore Lilith being a major buzz kill.
"Do you know about the great east flood?" I can't believe I'm actually talking to someone about this.
"Yeah. It was the biggest disaster in new Londons history. A massive tidal wave crashed into the city, thousands died and a bunch of Kaiju also attacked. What's that got to do with anything?" She changed her tune
quick.
"Apparently we made landfall at the same time as the wave." I've only heard this second hand. I was only a baby after all.
"As in the Japanese refugees? You know that's only an urban legend right?".
"That's not the point. That night is the only time I can remember my parents. I don't know what happened to them and Satoshi won't
say.".
"Oh. I'm so sorry.".
"But do you know what the worst part is? That memory hasn't stuck with me because of them. That was the first day I was ever on land and I saw the most amazing thing. A humongous blue bird, covered in lightning. I'm not kidding when I say that that bird has gotten me hooked on Kaiju." I realise halfway through that maybe I should have filtered that a little. Lilith is looking at me with a look that could charitably be described as scrutinising.
"Right. They're still murderous monsters." She raises the point that it always comes back to. The worst part is that I know that I'm in the wrong.
"They're just wild animals though right?" I'm sure that's great consolation for all the dead people.
"Even if we go against a ton of theories that they aren't, that kind of misses the point. Why do you have such a love for creatures that hurt people? People that do evil things don't deserve your love." I feel like I should let her know she misspoke at the end there but I don't.
"They look so cool though. And besides, even if they are evil, they still deserve some sort of love. I honestly can't think of anyone who doesn't deserve love." I quickly realise that I said the wrong thing when Lilith starts crying. "Oh no I'm sorry!" What do I do?!
"Your such a dork!" She says while giggling. Huh?
"What? Why are you crying?".
"Something got in my eye. Obviously! Stop being such a dummy!" I see. It should have been obvious. She starts to fly towards my face, stopping when she's right in front of me. "But please don't lie to me next time." What?! I didn't lie! That was some honest, emotional stuff! "You obviously didn't see a giant lightning bird. There's no records of that during the flood." Oh that's what she meant. Wait a second.
"But I saw it." I definitely did. Unless my little baby brain was just seeing things.
"Agree to disagree." She turns away in satisfaction. "You always have been a little ditsy in that way." Ditsy?! I don't even know the meaning of the word! Literally! "Like when you got the wrong volume of mariner satellite and when you realised it just scribbled the number you wanted on the volume number." She holds her hand up to her face haughtily. "Then you had to throw it away and get a new 1." How does she know about that?
"How do you know about that?" I've never told anyone about that. She hesitates for a second.
"Context clues." She eventually says. That makes sense. I really can be so clueless sometimes. "But seriously though, do you need to see a doctor?" Change the subject!
"What's your favourite fight that you've been in?" Lilith practically lights up when I say that.
"Definitely that 1 time I went beyond the wall to live by myself for a month!" Wait a second.
"You what?!" That's so dangerous! She could have died! "A month?! "Why?!".
"No need to shout." She says as she places her hands in front of her face. "It was back when I'd first met Misty. We didn't exactly get along. Something a little personal happened so I'm gonna skip it. Long story short she told me to leave the city and never come back. So I did. Or I tried to but Kaiju kept getting in the way. Super annoying. But it was also an endless supply of stress relief. I gained a much better grasp of my power after that." She's explaining this like it's not absolutely
insane. "A month flew by and I realised that I quite liked my hair long like this." Feels like that's an underwhelming revelation for something like that but what do I know?
"It does suit you quite well." I get a warm smile in return.
"Eventually Misty found me. Apparently she'd been looking for me for weeks. She tried to get me to come home but I was being stubborn. Even I can be extremely rarely wrong. She got fed up and hit me with a fireball. And we've been best friends ever since." I'm learning so much about friendship.
"What did your family have to say about it?" It's the logical question to ask. I know nothing about Liliths background. Nobody does. This may be a way to get something out of her. My super spy skills are coming in handy once again. Allister would be so proud.
"Not much. Because I never told them." That's odd.
"Did they not notice that you were gone?" I feel like even Satoshi would notice if I was gone for a month.
"We don't really talk that much. I moved out a few years ago so I don't see than as often as I would like. Now I live in an old mansion in zone G." Aw man, that's sad.
"I'm sorry. Where do you live now?" Is that intrusive? It feels intrusive. I guess I just want to know more about the situation.
"Come on now. A girls gotta have some secrets." Is all I get along with a wink. It's valid response even if it's also disappointing.
"Fair enough. Do you wanna watch some code creatures?" I ask as I start to sit up. I immediately fall back onto my back as if my body moved on its own. I think that's a no.
"How about you actually take care of yourself instead of trying to torture me?" Lilith says with a smile that would normally look quite
sweet if not for how scary it seemed.
"But code creatures is good." I focus on the most important thing.
"It's a creatively bankrupt franchise that's gone on too long and only got popular by riding the coattails of compartment ghouls." She says confidently as if that's not the worst take anyone's ever had. I see some vibrations coming from the draw I hid the wand in. At least those lot get it.What does it say when a hoard of Kaiju have better taste than the number 1?
"I feel like they moved away from their inspiration pretty quickly. It's a fairly unique story." I say while trying to avoid eye contact.
I'm not exactly an experienced debater.
"Facts don't care about your feelings Haruo." Lilith says in a voice that I think is meant to come off as kind but really just sounds condescending. Probably shouldn't tell her that though.
"It just feels like your missing out on some good stuff. Maybe you should give it another try?".
"No." She responded immediately. No hesitation. Not a single thought used to consider it.
"Fine. I didn't want to watch it anyway." I did, but she doesn't need to know that. I hear a faint click and quickly realise what just happened. "Another 1?!".
"I'm adding that 1 to the folder." Lilith says smugly as she taps away at her phone. My life is over!
"Please stop taking pictures of me." I weakly plead. Although I doubt it will get me anywhere.
"I will when you stop being adorable." Called it… wait a second.
"I'm not adorable!" I finally sit up in protest. With reflexes worthy of her rank, Lilith immediately reacts and floats away before
she's launched.
"Ok ok your not adorable. Adorable people do things like wear a cheerleader outfit. But you've never done that right?" Did she just forget about yesterday?
"But I did." I state the obvious. It's only when Lilith gives me a disbelieving look that I realise that she was using sarcasm. "And
you obviously did as well! I knew that! I understand sarcasm!" I try to do damage control but I know it's over when she takes another photo. I just fall back in defeat.
"You can be really clueless sometimes." She sits back down on my chest.
"Yeah I hate it.".
"That feels a little excessive.".
"It's so annoying though. I keep embarrassing myself." I look her right in the eyes as I say this.
"It just seems so silly to me. I just can't imagine not liking a part of myself." She turns away when she says it. "I think you should be less hard on yourself Haruo. If nothing else can you try for me?" This is getting a little weird.
"I guess so." What am I supposed to say?
"Can I ask you a personal question?".
"Sure, what is it?".
"Do you think that Kaiju boy believes that the ends justify the means?" Where's this coming from? What does Kaiju boy have to do with
anything?
"I'm not sure I follow.".
"If Kaiju boy knew about a villain who would kill anyone in her way, he'd stop her right?".
"Yeah from what I've heard of him he would do that.".
"Let's say that this hypothetical villain was willing to do whatever it took to achieve her goals. Destruction of property, stealing secrets and even mind control is on the table for her. Pretty messed up right?" She gives a casual smile that seems out of place.
"Yeah I feel like Kaiju boy would try to stop her." Where is this going?
"But here's the catch. The villain does this because she truly knows that if she took control, everything would be better. She could manage people's lives much better than the current establishment. Even if she had to cross a few lines to do it.".
"Ok?" I let out quite confused.
"So the final question that I've been leading to is this: if you could stop me from hurting someone, even knowing that me doing it would be better in the long run, would you do it?" What?
"What are you talking about? How would I even stop you from doing anything?".
"We're talking about Kaiju boy though. So I'll ask again. Would you stop me?" She looks right into my soul. She can see who I am. Did she always know?
"Yes." Is all I can say. I can understand killing a kaiju in self defence. I can also understand killing a person in self defence, although that does make me feel ill even thinking about it. But I could never condone killing someone premeditated. That's not ok.
"I see. Thank you for being honest with me. If you find yourself wondering next time we meet, I just want you to know that I really
enjoyed spending time with you. So please, stay out of this ok?" She says witha sad look. I try to reach out to her. To comfort her? Stop her from leaving? I don't know and I won't find out. Because as soon as I move I can feel all
energy leave my body as I start to fall asleep.
"Wait. Stop." I plead to her even though I'm somewhere far away. At least mentally. Or I assume this is a mental space like the other
times I've instantly appeared somewhere unfamiliar. Which is frankly justhorrible timing after what just happened. Lilith said she was a villain. Something about taking over and killing people. What the heck does that mean?! She's anice person! Was she joking?! Is this a prank?! Or am I just an idiot and she
actually is working for lord star fall?! Is Misty in on it?! I have so many questions!
"Fire!" A booming voice travels past me. This causes me to look around to see where I actually am. It's definitely not where I met Louhi or that black space from earlier. I'm on a boat for starters. A humongous metal vessel that rocks back and forth on the water. This is way more intense than mr Ryuji's fishing trips. Wow I haven't been on one of those in years. Wait! Focus Haruo!
"Excuse me." I say as I step closer to a man in thick metal armour. He runs past me without so much as a glance. I normally wouldn't think that's too weird, I'm not that noticeable after all, if not for the fact that I'm in my kaiju boy outfit. I would normally stand out like this plenty, but even more so here. With dark storm clouds blocking the sun and fireballs and flying Kaiju entering and exiting my field of view. Large islands littered the surrounding purple sea as other huge metal ships battled 30 foot tall reptilian kaiju that attempted to climb on board. I've never seen so many kaiju before. What on earth is going on? Should I help? Is this even happening? If this is a mental space am I even able to affect the outcome? That's even assuming that this is happening right now. I'm so confused!
"Fire the cannons! Turn the beach to glass!" What I assume to be the captain orders. For now I'll watch and try to get a grasp on the situation. If I can maybe I can find a way to wake up. Massive cannons on the front of the deck roar with power as they launch balls of flame towards an island that looks to be a little over a mile away. As we get closer I can see that the beach is indeed on fire. Something else catches my attention though. Standing among the flames are 2 Kaiju. Absolutely massive in size, even from all the way over here I can see that they're probably both S class. Are they really planning to fight those? From what I can tell they don't have ranger tech or Kaiju children.
"Captain, I'll handle those beasts, but I'll need covering fire to make it to shore." A raspy yet heroic voice says to the captain. He's a large man, probably 7 or 8 feet tall, covered in white armour with blue and purple highlights. The things that really catches my attention though are threefold. The first is the mask, a silver helmet that goes well with his armour with the bottom half covered in a purple scarf. The second thing was the massive grenade launcher he was carrying, with the ammunition glowing purple. The final thing was what was coming out of his back. A 'cape', or more accurately an amalgamation of vines, feathers, what I assume are jellyfish tentacles and more in the shape of a cape. If that's part of his body like it looks then I was at least wrong about the lack of Kaiju children. Also he just looks really cool.
"Understood Lancelot. The titans will cover you." As if on cue,a massive mech walked past the boat. Compared to the ones I've seen, this one's pretty colourless. I guess I was wrong on the other thing as well. Ok seriously now, I need to find a way to wake up before we sink. Wait what. I look down and
see a small but brutal tear in the metal of the ship, cutting it in 2 in effect. With me on it! Not to mention everyone else! I can't think about that for too long though, because I suddenly feel that pressure I've felt a few times now. That pressure you feel when someone way out of your league is against you. When they focus on you. I turn around to see the 2 Kaiju from the beach are now in front of our boat. Or their boat. We are all sinking together anyway. 1 was a titanic green dragon, serpentine in body structure. The other was more humanoid, an even bigger black devil looking thing. It has massive bat like wings on its back and massive tentacles that took the place of hair, concealing what looked to be a single massive eye.
"What the heck." I say as the reality dawns on me. I'm not feeling the pressure from the kaiju, terrifying as they are. It's the duo that's suddenly on the deck. A figure in full red armour holding a sword that must weigh a ton. In front of them was a lady with medium length purple hair in an elegant black dress fit for a princess, her green amulet shining all the while. Her eyes glowed purple as she walked right past me, even then for a moment it felt like I'd had my heart torn out. But then she stops, and starts to turn around. The pressure only intensifies as she looks right at me, the first in this place to do so. I know its not anything behind me, her glowing purple eyes look into my pink ones and suddenly widen. Does she know who I am? Is she connected to lord star fall? If she wants to hurt me would that even be possible? I'm about to find out as a gloved hand reaches for my face. I take a step back in a futile attempt to escape before I suddenly spring up in my bed. Holy heck I'm back! What was any of that?! Did Lilith make me see that? No, she
wouldn't do that. But what was she talking about? Who was that purple lady? Where do I go from here?
