[ Post Eclipse ]
Narrator POV
The Eclipse is done, the place calms down. The orbs stopped from falling. The black figure is beside Seishin, sitting on the ground.
While Seishin, the Hero of Soul is lying on the ground, his body glows white allover. He floats in the air, as high as his height.
A strap of white light comes out from his belly, and is slowly creating a sphere coating around him, covering his whole space, containing him inside.
When the sphere is fully formed, it forms like a light orb. This orb starts to go to the sky slowly accelerating until is not visible on the ground.
Same thing with the black figure. It is wrapped with black strapped sphere and flew to the sky.
They disappeared from the crime scene.
A loud clapping of horse march is approaching the place. The horse is lifting two men. The horse driver is Tenchi, Seishin's companion.
And the other man is his Master, Zhuren.
Zhuren drops down on the spot where they left me. The horse stops from running as he drops off.
"Tenchi, I look around the north, you go south. Call me if you see anything." Zhuren commands.
"Got it! I know Seishin won't be killed easily." They both start to look around the place. The place where Seishin separated from them.
Tenchi searched the South, and noticed something.
"Master! Look at this." Tenchi found an arrow with a letter attached to it.
Zhuren runs toward him at a fast speed coming from the north. "What is that?"
"It looks like a letter Master, and what's more is, the grass around it is burnt, forming a perfect circle."
Zhuren looks intensely to the arrow. He detaches the letter to the arrow and opens it.
Tenchi goes down from the horse. He stepped near the circle and stares at it. "You know Master? I can't even draw a perfect circle! And look, it's a perfect circle, using fire!"
"Yeah yeah, but first, read this" Zhuren hands the letter to Tenchi with his eyes closed.
"Uhh.. you're no fun. I bet you can't draw perfect circle too." Tenchi took the letter and reads it.
"Near Village is the place to go. Save the people, never lose hope" Signed by Trust me bro.
"Wow, what a weird name." Tenchi folded the paper and puts it in his pocket. "The letter said trust me bro, Master. Maybe we should trust it?"
Within the speed of sound, a strong impact pounded his head. At the same time, Zhuren's fist is smoking. In short, Zhuren pounded Tenchi's head.
"Ahh! Why did you do that?" His both hands are placed on his head, covering the area of impact.
"It's obvious we should trust it, do you understand?" Zhuren is staring intensely on Tenchi's eyes. An unknown force coming from Zhuren blasted around the place, leaving a frightening presence around.
Tenchi can't help but to get frightened. "Master! You're using your ability.. for...~" his voice starts to shake, and slowly his vocal cords squeezes, restricting him to talk.
"For?" The pressure is getting intense
The horse starts to run towards their location. With Tenchi's reaction, as the horse pass by them, he already mounted on it. As soon as they escaped the pressure, Tenchi shouted, "[gasp] For a wrong purpose!"
"Tenchi!" He tried to chase them, but they are way too fast. "Where are you heading!?" He shouted.
"To the Near Village!"
"No, you idiot! Don't trust that letter easily!"
"I can't! That circle is way too perfect!" The sound starts to fade, and their presence on Zhuren's eye vanishes.
"[Sigh] That man, I can't help it." He sprints to the village on the north, hoping that Seishin will be there. The last location of mission they took before the incident occur.
While Tenchi is heading to the Near Village, Zhuren is heading to the Citrus Village, both of them hoping Seishin is there.
On the other side, Seishin is falling towards another village in a form of light orb. He cannot feel anything, but peace. For he thought that he is flying because he cannot feel anything, but the truth is, he is indeed flying.
He falls on the top of the hill, creating a large explosion of dirt, visible enough on the village down the hill. The orb starts to vanish, the light starts to fade as he landed on the ground.
The village is covered in darkness, the people outside the home is under some curse, a dark curse. The cursed people look like a black tinted figures with a visible detail. They move around like zombies, infecting anyone they bite.
Their sole purpose theoretically is, to infect anyone around them. As soon as they infect a vessel, they will leave them immediately.
No one is there to help Seishin, except for those who is not yet infected. Hopefully, the one who sent Seishin to that place isn't an enemy.
A teenager boy is playing around the hills alone. He saw the orb fall on top of the hill. With that, he chases to that location.
"Woah, I thought the wave of falling orbs ended. I wonder what's in there now" The boy whispering to himself while walking to the top of the hill.
He asked these questions for he also witness the falling orbs during the eclipse. And what he discovered is every orb contains something inside.
Seishin encountered a Shadow human figure during the eclipse, which is inside the dark orb that caused his separation to the party.
As he reaches the top of the hill, what he saw is an unconscious man lying on the ground.
That unconscious man is Seishin.
"This is surprising."
The boy goes near the body. He checks if that man is still breathing.
"Yep, still alive" He lets out a big sigh. "I can't afford to not help this helpless man."
With that, he walks through the village, full of Dark creatures.
