《The Dark Star Emperors》Chapter 73: The Original Three
Advertisement
Eli and Yune watched as Mizuchi walked towards them. They didn't plan to stop her if she decided to stay. But, from her own volition, Mizuchi walked away. She found her mother. The thrill faded away as disappointment set in even deeper. Nonetheless, she stood as tall as she could be.
"C'mon, Eli and Yune. Let's go back home," Mizuchi said.
"You sure?" Yune asked.
"Yeah," she said with a smile. Not a facade, but a real one. Rather than looking back, she decided to look forward.
"Alright, Mizuchi. We'll be right behind you," Eli replied.
"It's Mizu," she replied, "Call me Mizu. I'd prefer that."
Even though she always thought that name was reserved for her mother, she still thought it was a nice nickname. And it was a shame to let it go to waste.
Yune and Eli smiled alongside their new member of the family.
"Alright... Mizu," Eli said.
Yune chuckled again.
"What's so funny this time?" Mizu asked.
"Nothing. Nothing at all," Yune said as she thought how cute Mizu was.
Mizu pouted and walked ahead.
When they got outside, all three of them wondered where they ended up. Luckily, they were still in Janken City. They decided to take the subway to get back home.
When they did, each of them were scolded by Ms. Singh for sneaking out. But also luckily, she made their punishment very lenient. For the remainder of the week, the three were on toilet duty.
Yune and Eli were used to working for Ms. Singh on their own, but Mizu complained. She never did such manual labor. Nonetheless, the three girls worked together and finished their daily chores.
And that wasn't the end of it.
When Mizu got her powers, she continued to want to help people. Yune and Eli never felt obliged to, but when their new member went out, they too would join. It was only for around an hour or so. And with their new powers, it was very easy to sneak in and out from just jumping out of any window. They could jump higher than every before. Each time, Mizu tried reaching for the stars before she would gently land.

Everybody in the orphanage and at school thought of the each of them as sisters. But they felt even closer than that.
They went out each night to fight Night Demons and protect people from them. They even occasionally brought down drug and prostitute rings. They were like real super heroes. But they're troubles have only just begun.
One day, Eli had the idea to take a picture of the three of them as a keepsake. Yune held a camera up as she was the tallest and oldest among them. Eli hugged Yune closely. And there was Mizu having a smile that could brighten up any day. They all came close and with a snap, a picture crawled out from the old camera. They framed it and kept it by Eli's bedside who slept in between the other two whenever they were done patrolling the city.
As they fought, they began to gain the attention of one Night Demon. A hunter that sniffed out new prey. It knew that they were new at being Light Guardians from the scent. A creature that looked like a shadow of a werewolf. It followed the scent and found it's way back to where the three stayed. It howled in the night wagging it's tail in delight and then stare straight at the orphanage from above a rooftop. Easy Light Guardian prey, it thought. And that's all it could think of. It didn't care for the children, but just the scent of the new guardians.

Time And Thoughts
This a book is where I freely express and convey emotions and my thoughts about topics. It's a place where I spend my TIME putting my THOUGHTS into words in hopes of helping someone. I've written these poems in such a way, so that my viewers can derive their own meaning from them. For me as a person I tend to feel more comforted, when down, by listen to music or reading poems, in which the poem or song is hopeless and gives off the feeling of the protagonist being bluntly hurt. In my poems I write without words of encouragement, but instead comfort the reader through understanding and allowing them to feel.If you ever feel the need to talk to someone or want to know the meaning of one of my poems or just wanna say something feel free to comment or private message me.Please enjoy and be comforted by my book.Highest ranking:#1 poems#1 poembook#2 poemcollection#2 poem#3 poetry#3 poetrycollection#5 sadpoems#5 thoughts#8 emotions#13 freeverse#17 hopeless#20 feelings#24 sadness#36 depressing #44 updating#56 life#70 sad#87 poet
