《Dark & Light》Chapter 4 : Man in Black
Advertisement
"If only I arrived sooner... I'm sorry." The man in black felt responsible for the death of the girl in front of him.
"W-who are you?" Arisa said in a trembling voice. She still couldn't comprehend what happened before.
"At least, you saved the other."
A voice heard from the man's left hand, a young girl's voice. Arisa focused on searching who's talking. It turned out that voice came out by the silver bracelet the man wore. Arisa was shocked for the second time.
"T-that bracelet... It spoke! Where is the killer? What are the black clouds wandering around you?! Who are you?!!" Panicked, Arisa threw question after question.
"She can see your aura, Dark!! How so?!" Spoke the bracelet.
"I neither know, Light. But we have to get away from here, fast!" The man-Dark replied. And then, Dark walked toward Arisa that still sit on the ground.
"W-what you want to do!!! Go away!!" Scared, she trying to reach something with her hands. And she found the broken glass-bottle the killer used to murder before. She threw it at Dark's face and ran away. Along the alley path.
But when she turned left, Dark has awaited her. He clutched the top of her head with his left hand like the man before. Scared and panicked, she yelled.
"Let go of me!! LET GO!"
"Calm down!! Don't be afraid! I will not cause you any harm!" Said Dark.
"C'mon Dark! You must be fast!! Her movement became erratic!!"
The bracelet-Light yelled. Dark knew He must be fast. He inserted the black cloud from his left hand in the head of Arisa. She covered with the black mist.
"With this, she will not remember anything."
But the moment Dark released his hand, Arisa back to running as fast as she could. Not convicted Her memory has erased, Light said.

"Um, I don't think so. I'm sure with that reaction. The girl still remembers." Light said.
"... How?" Spoke Dark with a confused look on his face.
Arisa ran away with all her strength. And when she took a look behind her. The black clouds chased her with unbelievable speed, lurking from the murky alley. Engulf half of her body. Until she close to the crowded street in front, the clouds gave up chasing her. She bumped some people in that crowded street, but she could be careless about the swear of the people she bumped. She only cared about getting away from the chaser.
On the other hand, Dark has lost track of her just standing on the tall building nearby the crowded street.
Arisa's breathing heavily on the side road surrounded by trees after she passed the crowded street. She is out of breath, tired, frightened, and stress out. The bloodstains, the dirt, messed her school uniform so badly.
She needed rest. She could just back home, take a bath, changed her clothes, and rest in her fluffy bed. But Ravi's face still haunting her. She can't come back home now.
Then she found an abandoned old western-style house above the hill, on the left side of the road. She leisurely walked into it.
She tried to open the door, but it's locked. She gave up and sat on the floor, leaned her back on the wall. And carelessly sleep on the terrace with a tear on her face.
A mysterious man saw Arisa sleeping. The man in black.

The Order of Sekhmet
Meet Rowan who may or may not be really enthusiastic about telling you how his life is with the goddess of war. It is naturally far from being peaceful, but the blade-wielding, fourth-wall-breaking protagonist certainly wouldn't have it any other way. Egyptian deities? Check. Sword fights? Check. Demonic arts? Check. Burning passion? Check. After all, blood is a good moisturizer. Please note that I have flagged my content. There is and will be content that may trigger you, particularly if you've been through toxic relationships. While I do my best not to paint these moments in the best light, they exist and are crucial parts of my story. Things are kicked up a notch beginning with chapters named 'The Old World'. Everything before is (nearly) vanilla. Update schedule is every Thursday/Friday, varying times!

Despondent Divinity
There exists a Great Seal which split the world in two, one half ravaged by the Darkness, the other a safe haven of Light. Since the collapse of the old world, 20,000 years have passed, and the world watches on as their only protection from the Plague of Plagues slowly dissipates. Only the strong may survive the oncoming Demon horde, and the forgotten prince, Jack Calmira, fears he may not have what it takes. In a world where weakness is punished by death, what are weak men to do? Author's Note: Expect a chapter or two every month, but I'll get faster eventually. This story isn't a Wuxia, but it has a lot of eastern influence. The MC isn't OP and is flawed. Less action, more character driven. Constructive criticism would be appreciated as it's my first story. Chinese culture has inspired a lot of the novel, but much of it is an amalgamation of different cultures, some made up and some not. Think Xianxia + Shounen with a mix of western and eastern fantasy elements.
