《Nephilim: Beyond Good and Evil》Chapter 13: Aftermath
Advertisement
Everything happened so fast. Before I knew it things were already changing. I was now a murderer. Those memories always replay in my head, it's scared me for life. Something that I will never forget. You want to know what scares me the most? The fact that I enjoyed it.
After slaying Abner and avenging Shiori's death, Terios broke the bad news to his uncle who didn't take it too well. The loss of a son is something that doesn't come easy. Seeing the look in his eyes reminded him that a life can go at any moment; in an instant.
The group remained silent as they departed from the church, well you couldn't call it a church anymore it was simply a building that had been scorched. It wasn't until later that the fire department showed up to put out the flames. Although, the building and its people would forever be scared by their loss.
Shiori and Abner both died on that day and it would impact both parties. The two accomplished a lot over the years. It's saddening that things had to turn out the way it did, but there was no turning back the hand of time now. What's done will forever remain in the history books.
Out of everyone at the church, Honoka was the one who took it the hardest. This only refueled her hatred for her family after realizing they had a hand in her brother's death. Now she truly was alone in the world and had to fend for herself without anyone to turn to. To make matters worse living arrangements would have to be made now that the church was out of commish.
Uubji wasn't the same anymore after losing Shiori. He was riddled with guilt and felt responsible for how Honoka's life turned out. The fact that there wasn't anything else he could do crippled him further. It was surprising to see him lose his carefree demeanor.
Ryo also felt bad for not being able to finish off Abner with his technique, however, Uubji quickly reassured him that he wasn't the one to blame. He still felt responsible with being the older brother.
Akemi didn't really feel anything with the loss of Shiori. In his eyes Shiori was a traitor who had what was coming to him. The only thing he was upset about was not being able to fight a fully powered Angel which seemed a bit childish, but that just how he was.
Terios still couldn't shake that horrible feeling. The feeling of playing god with someone's life. He had killed a holy being so did that make him unholy? He sat on the end of his bed with his hands covering his face. How could he even for a moment enjoy what he did? And to make matters worse how would he handle the task at hand? Finding Isamu and killing him for Shiori. The last thing on his mind was taking another's life.

Even if a person is a complete asshole that doesn't give anyone the right to just kill them. If the world was like that then we would all just be animals. I don't understand how anyone could enjoy this. It's maddening!
Terios blamed himself for everything. It was because of him that things were turning out this way. Maybe it would be best if he left. Before he could contemplate this he heard it. His real father's voice echoing within his mind.
Don't be afraid. You enjoyed it because that's your nature. You were meant for this; meant to exterminate everyone. That is your purpose, embrace it my son. Or I will help you do so.
"Shut up! I'm not like you!" Terios shouted.
Hearing his shouting, Setsuna walked into his room and approached him before she sat down on the bed and leaned against her brother. She wasn't able to talk to him about what had happened during their trip to the church and was worried for him.
"Teri-kun. What's wrong?"
"Setsuna..."
Terios was desperate for some sort of comfort and right now Setsuna would do. His arm wrapped around her slender frame, bringing her close to him as he took a deep breath. She was so cold it was a shame, she was colder than a deceased body.
"Tell me how you feel. I know something's bothering you."
"Setsuna... I'm not sure you'd understand."
"Why not?"
Well, she's someone who kills on a daily business. She's conditioned to think nothing of it or else she'd probably feel guilty that she has to kill in order to live. That doesn't make her a bad person... she's just trying to do her best to survive.
"Shiori handed his weapons over to me and I was forced to kill Abner. I'm not used to killing so it was hard for me to do something like that."
"I'm sorry about Shiori. But, you did what anybody would do. It was the right thing to do. You avenged him and killed a potentially dangerous foe. You should be proud of yourself."
"Then why do I feel so bad...?"
"You'll get used to it."
"I don't want to get used to something like this..."
Setsuna moved her hand along his back, digging her fingers along his shirt as she looked up at him. She wanted to be able to cheer her brother up, she wanted to understand what he was going through. Moving closer to him, her body pressed up against his as she puckered her lips and pressed it gently against Terios' cheek.
Feeling her cold lips caused him to blush lightly before turning to face her. His eyes closed for a moment, doing something like this would be wrong, but he needed comforting somehow, someway. He knew he may regret this, but he leaned in closer while his heart crashed against his chest. His hands moved to rest against her cheeks before leaning in to gently kiss her lips.

Afterward, he'd pull away, looking down and feeling a bit guilty about his actions. He didn't want to lead her on in anyway, but it was probably too late for that now. She leaned back in and forced her lips back against his, catching Terios by surprise. His eyes widened with shock and before he knew it he was kissing her over and over again.
Their bodies fell softly against his bed while his arms wrapped around her petite frame. She seemed so fragile and it was like he could easily break her if she wasn't careful. It was easy to tell from her movements that she wanted him more for whatever reason, whether it was dependency or love. The sound of their lips sucking against one another could be heard before she broke free and sat up.
She moved her hand to brush a few strands from her face before she guided her hand to grip at her corset before she slowly started to remove it. "Teri-kun... I want to go all the way with you. I've never felt this happy in a long time and I want to make you feel good too."
Terios grew extremely nervous by her actions. He was still a virgin and had no experience whatsoever. Plus, doing it with her of all people would be considered bad no matter how either of them felt. To have sexual relations with someone he considered a sister the thought proved too much for him to handle.
I know she wants to help me, but doing this doesn't feel right. I already feel disgusting for going this far.. I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I slept with my sister. I need to stop this before we both end up regretting this.
Terios turned his head away, facing toward his right. By now she had fully removed her corset and had thrown it to the side, revealing her fun sized breasts which were just as pale as her skin complexion.
"Setsuna... I can't do this... not with you..."
"Teri-kun...? What are you saying?"
"I'm saying this feels wrong. It was a mistake to go this far with you. I'm sorry!" Terios got up after speaking and rushed out of his room not looking back once. He needed some fresh air right about now because he was starting to feel sick to his stomach.
Once he had left the Manor he walked through the woods and onto the city streets. It was night so the streets were covered with luminous lights that radiated brightly almost blinding. Right now the light was something he wanted to run away from. He'd only feel at ease once he was shrouded in darkness.
Terios now sat on the edge of a bridge with his head staring down at the large body of water. Occasionally cars zoomed past, but that was only a minor distraction. Right now he was simply lost within his own feelings of guilt. Guilty for the death of Shiori. He allowed his legs to dangle from the ledge, wondering what it would be like to just allow himself to fall to the bottom and see where the water would take him.
I should have been stronger to save Shiori. Now Uubji has to deal with the loss of his son after just getting back into contact with him. I probably made Setsuna upset with me aswell for leading her on like that... I can't do anything right lately. Things have always been about me failing or screwing things up for everybody else. Life has been nothing but a struggle for me. Ever since I learned that I was adopted. I learned that my real parents never wanted me and that I would never truly be apart of the Kiyomizus. The thing that makes up a family will always be their blood. And my blood is tainted...
Terios stretched out his arm, slowly turning it around as he looked at his wrist. Coursing through his veins was the blood of a Fallen Angel. A monster corrupted by sin and that corruption would soon take its effect on him. It was impossible to overcome genetics.
Maybe that's how I'll fulfill Shiori's wish without getting my family involved. I'll head over to the Ematas myself and I'll... I'll kill Isamu myself. That way Shiori can rest in peace and my family won't have to suffer if I screw things up again. I can't afford to lose to Isamu, I have to win like I did against Abner. And to do that I need to know what the hell I can do.
Terios' hand clenched into a fist before he opened his palm and formed a sphere from the darkness around him. The sphere was pitch black in color and smooth to the touch. He knew he had the ability to manipulate darkness, but to what length? How would he be able to unlock more of this ability and use it in more useful ways? His healing capabilities were also top notch and it raised the question if he could even die. Well, of course he could or else the Angels wouldn't be hunting them.
The only person I know who could teach me more about myself is Akari. I know she's rather an Angel or a Nephilim like me. If she's an Angel I wonder why she hasn't tried to kill me yet... what am I saying she was adopted like me so she has to be a Nephilim, right? I guess there's only one way to find out really.
