Purple Dawn Till Dusk : Dearest Through The Time Chapter 116

Senja twisted her body and grabbed her hairpin with attention to stab his arm, but her second attempt was easily deflected. The guard grabbed her right hand and twisted it over her head until the sharp point of the hairpin was pointing her neck while the guard other hand held her left arms, locked her movement.
The guard looked at Xiao Tianyao, waiting for his further instruction.
"I dare you to hurt me!!!" Senja shouted at Xiao Tianyao who still didn't moved a muscle from his chair. She knew he wouldn't hurt her because she risked her life when she decided to attack the guard.
Her wrath was cleared to see and feel, it was the first time people around her had paid attention to her angry figure rather than her odd hair.
She was like a beast that had just been released from her cage and throwing tantrum to people around her.
Xiao Tianyao's tip of lips rose upon looking at Senja. She already in disadvantage situation and still has guts to threaten him, she was quite clever to play her card nicely, because she knew Xiao Tianyao wouldn't hurt her. But, Xiao Tianyao still thought her reaction was still not enough, a cornered dog would jump over the wall, he wanted to see what her reaction would be if he pushed her harder.
"Release her" He said.
The guard released Senja but confiscated her hairpin. Senja stroke her aching wrist, there was a red mark on her fair skin.
Damn! I don't want to make a bet like that anymore! My little maiden heart couldn't bear it… it was too thrilled…
However, Xiao Tianyao only gave her a little relief when he gave the guard another order. "Break every finger until he confessed"
"No… Please, No…" Hu Feng howled in fear. The image of being tortured filled him with dread. He changed his plea to Senja with tears streaming down his face. "Big sister… Please help me… I don't know… I just did what I was told"

"Xiao Tianyao! You are crazy bastard!" Senja shouted out loud. "If you really wanted to know the answer, then find the guy behind him! Do you not feel ashamed for tortured a merely kid? What do you think of 9 years old kid is able to do?! Your brain is totally damaged!" Senja panted after she insulted Xiao Tianyao.
All the guards around her was sucked in cold breath and started to make silence pray for her. No one was alive after disrespect their Master. Just how many life this girl have?
Xiao Tianyao stood up from his chair and walked slowly to Senja directions. His expressionless face was prevented anyone from read his emotion. Will he kill the girl by himself? All the guards were befuddled. But to their surprised, their Master stopped right in front of Senja and smiled harmlessly.
"What you want to say?" Xiao Tianyao asked Senja who was still fuming in front of him.
"He was being manipulated. You have to find those people behind him rather than tortured him to death"
"I didn't say I would kill him" He said in matter of fact. He ordered to break his fingers, he wouldn't die with a broken fingers.
"You are good at talking" Senja sneered.
"And you are good at pretending"
Senja was squinted her eyes upon hearing his retorted words. What does he mean? But Senja brushed aside his words and continued talking about the matter on hand.
"How can you torture a kid who was being manipulated? Are you even had bottom line?"
"L Clan has tendency to manipulated children, because of people like you who thought with their small figure and fragile appearance they were innocence hence we would put our guards down towards them and less suspicious" Xiao Tianyao said those words with clear voice that soothed Senja's ears. "But, because of that reason also thousand people suffered because we neglected the possibility of ruining their plan and can't prevent the calamity from happening"

After the End: Serenity
We all want to believe we are heroes of our own story - unless we want to be the villain, of course. At the end of everything, the Final Reaper decided he hadn’t been a hero. Driven by a desire to right the wrongs he was subjected to, he killed everyone who wronged him or his people - which turned out to be everyone that wasn’t killed by someone else first. He'd won - but it was a hollow victory. Eventually, Order’s Voice found a way out. If the only existing being would agree to give up most of his power, the Voice could reset the multiverse to an earlier time with a few minor changes. Of course, the Voice couldn't ask it that way. It could only ask if the Final Reaper was willing to start over from when Earth was first brought into Order. It was an easy decision, and yet it wasn’t. Was he willing to go through eons of pain again to not be alone? Yes. In a heartbeat. Not that his heart beat anymore. Now it would. Perhaps he could even be a hero, this time. When he landed in his old body - more or less - on Earth, the Final Reaper once again became Thomas. He was both and neither. He needed a new name for a new life. Serenity. ------------------------------------------ While this is technically a System Apocalypse story, it's a System Apocalypse that is designed to have a large percentage of the population survive and prosper. There are a lot of problems that come with the appearance of the Voice, and it's entirely possible to lose. Earth has some special opportunities, but also special challenges. The first time around, Earth won the first round and lost the second. Serenity has ten years from when the Voice arrives to prevent that from happening. It will be a group effort; Serenity can't win alone - which is difficult for someone who's been alone for as long as he has. Of course, that's only his second priority. ------------------------------------------- Updates Daily A note on the nonhuman lead tag: He isn't human, and hasn't been human for a very, very long time (or maybe not long at all, depending on how you count it). He still thinks of himself as human, either way. The content warnings are mostly to give me room to write; this fiction is not intended to be edgy, but once in a while a character will swear or someone will get seriously injured. The cover image is a Chandra/Hubble composite image of VV 340 / Arp 302 / UGC 9618. While we're not going to space itself any time soon in the story, people from elsewhere are coming to Earth and Serenity will visit other planets. Plus, I like space imagery.
