《Gallinus》4- Colors

That way, I’m taken out of the room and placed on a table.
Just watch does this girl want me to do?
In front of me was a wooden cup with nothing inside.
- Come on! Attack that cup! – The girl says, excitedly.
… What does she think I am?
Not caring about the girl’s command, I look around and analyze the location.
What I see is a little kitchen, with some essential tools for preparing food, like the stove and a pair of chairs.
A little to the side it is possible to see the corridor that leads to the girl’s room and another one, which probably belongs to that other woman. There is also the bathroom at the end of the corridor.
A very small house...
There was no couch or comfort area.
- …Hey! How long will you stand there?! Come on, try to attack that cup! – The girl speaks, realizing that I’m not doing anything.
… Okay, I think it’s time to leave.
I try to walk to the end of the table, to jump on a chair and then get out, but the girl takes me in her hands again.
Where are you going? Why don’t you obey me? Are you still to young to understand simple commands? – She asks while she approached me to her face.
I don’t really know what she is talking about, but I very much doubt that a baby chicken would react to something like that.
Since there were no ways to escape her hands, I just decided to stay still.
- You don’t even react to what I say… - The girl murmurs, disappointed.
At that moment, the door to the other room is opened and the woman who looks like this girl’s mother appears.
… I don’t understand what she says.

It looked like the woman was talking to the girl, but I can’t understand a word from her.
I could only understand what the girl was saying in response, and it seemed to be something about me doing nothing.
While they talked, I finally started to feel hungry and thirsty.
I didn’t know I would feel it in a dream…
Anyway, I need food and water, so for the first time, I started to chirp.
It’s really weird to do that…
- What’s happen?! Why are you making noise now? – Asked the girl, a little scared.
But after hearing some word from the woman beside her, she seemed to remember what it might be and then brought a bowl of water and another bowl of corn.
I’m not enjoying this dream anymore…
As I am really hungry, I let go of some of my pride to feed myself.
I take the corn with my foot, since my wings are very short, and I take them up to my head, which also lowers to reach it.
This is a little difficult…
While I do this, for some reason, the two women show a strange look in my direction.
I also look a little at the girl who brought me to this house, because something had changed.
Let’s see… The color on her abdomen is still blue, but around she is a shade of green with orange… Previously it was yellow and soon after it turned red…
There were also some black spots in those colors, but I don’t think it is important.
Just with those little observations, even though I don’t know what the color inside meant, at least I can understand that the outside has to do with her feelings.
This is kind of weird, but it’s also interesting… I should try to find out what each color means.

Until now, besides this girl, no one else had color change so many times.
In fact, most people had a light gray color, as if it were neutral.
Maybe light gray really is something neutral?
At some point, while I was finishing the meal and having these thoughts, the girl appears in a white dress.
She changed very quickly.
As soon as she noticed that I was finished, she took me in her hands and took me outside the house.
In the small garden, the girl puts me down and then puts a log in front of me.
- Previously, I had forgotten to feed you, but now it’s time to show your potential! – She says it all excitedly while the color around her change to yellow.
What enthusiasm… I really wouldn’t wat to spoil it, but I also have no idea what she thinks I should do.
Well, as I had nothing to lose, I decided to go to the log and… Climb on it.
Now I can see the surroundings from higher up…
Analyzing my surroundings, I can see that the nearest house must be around 100 meters away.
On the other side is the path to a grove, which I do not know what can be in it.
Even climbing up this log, my vision is very limited.
The log was not very high, anyway, so I decided to go down and look at the girl.
The yellow tone changed to orange again…
- Don’t tell me that you don’t really know what to do… - She says while looking incredulous. – But how is that possible? Any spiritual animal, even after birth, follows its instincts when they are commanded and attack…
Well, I think I’m going to leave this girl in her daydream and go for a walk.
I want to analyze more about this dream, mainly because of these colors.
The only problem is that the only person I see different colors is this girl… Wait, don’t I have my own color too?
I try to watch my own body, but I can’t see anything.
I wanted to know my colors….
With nothing else to do, I stat walking towards the house closer, but before I can walk at least a meter, the girl takes me in her hands.
Hey, dram can I walk alone!?
- Where do you think you’re going? We’re not done here yet!
The girls place me on top of the log.
- Now, what should I do with you…
Why do I feel like she’s scolding me?
- Ah, I know! I’ll show you a fight of spiritual animals!
And, in that way, she carried me out of her house, towards somewhere within the small town.

Legacy
After a gruesome accident, John can't live a normal life anymore. While he's in a coma, he is offered an interesting proposal. If he can't live a normal life in the real world, maybe he could try living a good one in the virtual world. It sounds like an easy solution but things may not go as planned. Chapter 1 and 2 can be considered prologues but I advise you to read them to get a better understanding of both the characters and the world. The story picks up after chapter 4 so if you wish to read a story with a """"slightly"""" dark main character, please be patient. Warning! Some chapters may include : strong coarse language, violence, scenes that are suggestive of or depicting sexual intercourse, rape and ritualistic murders.

The Scarlet Knight is a short story that takes place in the same universe as The Reborn. There are elements of Gamelit inside, but nothing too extensive. I write the Scarlet Knight on my phone, so there are grammatical issues inside. You do not have to read The Reborn to enjoy this story.

Follow Vivi on the path of adventure and learning more about mortals (which are no less cunning than most demons), as Hell tries to follow them and ruin all the fun. It's an action adventure with fighting and magic and monster people. Note: This is my first time posting online anything I wrote. And English is not my native language. I try to do a few reviews before posting, but I'm still learning. If you find any errors or have constructive criticism, please tell me! I will be happy if you leave comments. Content warning information: this story includes lots of killing of different sentient beings, but it doesn't have explicit gore. I still put a content warning, because it's better to be safe than sorry. It also contains a few profane words here and there... No sex scenes or traumatic content, I'll try to keep it positive.
