《Rise of Agze'sCanvas》Chapter 1: The Day I Transcended
Advertisement
In a lonely alley located in the center of a giant metropolis that looks like it has been taken out of a futuristic dystopic novel, lies a battered body of a young boy. The young boy looks to be around 18 years old and is unmoving. How he has gotten to where he was, is a tale of how sadness and unfairness prevails over perseverance and determination.
It all began 18 years ago, when a baby boy was born to a loving couple in their mid twenties. The couple despite not having much in their names felt that they were the most blessed people on the planet. They were runaway newlyweds forced apart by their families who rejected their marriage. The couple escaped across the ocean to avoid their dominion, and it was there that the little baby breathed his first breath.
**************************************************************************************************
"Congratulations Mr and Mrs Agze, it is a healthy baby boy", declared the doctor.
"Dear, dear, look at our baby boy. He is beautiful, our son!'', Mrs Agze exclaimed, weakened from the birth.
''Yes darling, you did well, very well'' replied the husband, with tears streaming down his red puffy eyes.
''Dear, a name! We've got to give him a name!''
''Calm down darling, we have decided beforehand that if it is a girl, she will be called Rize and a boy will be... Kalm."
''Yes I remember", Mrs Agze grinned and turned towards the little body wrapped in a blue towel, his skin still pink and untainted.
"Hi there little one. Your name is Kalm, Kalm Agze. Mummy and daddy welcome you into our lives and we wish that you grow up strong and happy."
**************************************************************************************************
8 years passed by quickly, and the little baby grew up into a young boy, who is attending elementary school. This was the period of his life he felt the most happiness.
A skinny stature with a little taller than usual height, weighing an average among his peers, endowed with natural flaming red hair and crimson-marble eyes, Kalm stood out like a sore thumb among everyone else in his cohort. Together with a knack for making friends and his extremely outgoing personality, he soon became the leader of his little group.
Although being constantly praised by all teachers and classmates, Kalm did not grow up arrogant and prideful. He was brought by his parents with humility. He was the role model of how every kid his age should strive to be in this present dystopian society.
The small Agze family was not well-to-do, yet not poor. Young Kalm was not deprived of love from his parents. The kind of love that compensates for all or even more of what he didn't have. But alas, the happiness was not meant to last.
Reason unbeknownst, whether it was the work of fate or the heartless play of God's whimsical hand, the next card dealt for Kalm on his ninth birthday was the news of his parent's passing, a result of a road accident. His parents were accused of ignoring the traffic light, and the evidences found on site were against Mr and Mrs Agze. Among the debris of the accident was a grey paper box containing a smashed cake, with words barely recognizable written of top.

"Happy Birthday, Kalm!"
It was at this day on his ninth's birthday when Kalm lost everything, that the wheel of fate begin turning.
***************************************************************************************************
7 year passes and on the morning of a certain day......
Ting,ting ting[noise]
Mhm..mhmm[Kalm]
Ting dering Ting[ unknown noise]
mhmmm...one minute moreeee[Kalm]
TING!!!TINGDERINGGG!![ unknown noise]
What, whattt! ''bang''[Kalm woke up and hit his head against the ceiling lamp.]
Kalm groan in pain as he rub his forehead with his hand while exclaiming toward the source of the noise.''Nite, Sun can't you wake me up more gently?''Floating in mid air in front of kalm's head were two orbs one black while the other shining.
brightlyBoth of which doesn't have a fix shape as the black one was like a cluster of black smog while the bright one was pulsating like a light bulb going on and off.
These two entity was born from inside Kalm on that fateful day and had every since been with him, at first he thought that they were his deceases parent's souls and found refuge in the entities for his losses but as time passes he realized that they were not them but still feels attachment and gratitude toward the orbs as they brought him what he needed the most during the time where he was at his weakest... companionship.
The rented room he was staying in sizes up to 4m length x3m width x 1.5m height, it was more like a small storeroom then an actual room especially looking at the floor to ceiling distance but this was all Kalm could afford.
After the tragic incident 7 years ago, beside losing everything, he also gain some new things.... debts, as the accident was the fault of his parent ignoring the traffic lights the reparation amounting to $844,099 was carried over to him. Even after selling off the family house and anything that was of value it only came close to paying off 50% of the total amount owed.
After that fiasco all he had left were a few pieces of clothing and the framed picture of a 8 year old him with his parents taken during a festival. Every time he looks at the picture, he was reminded of the good times when his parent was still alive.
However he was not one to dwell on the past, the memories are important to him but they will not influences his future choices. This kind of positive attitude was ingrain into him by his dad ever since he was young and together with the unconditional love given to him till the day they parted he moves onward while keeping all the sadness suppressed deep inside of him.
''Yawnzzz..'' as he stretches out his arms touching the ceiling
''what time is it now?'' Kalm
'' Ting tingdering'' Nite
''hmm?''Kalm
''TING TING TING!'' Sun
Looking at his companion, Kalm finds them circling above a pile of books,plastic and whatever you name it. Kalm reached out into the mess and pull out a small digital clock before looking at the time.

''I'M LATE!!!'' resounded across the apartment complex as the sound of falling and clashing followed closely afterward. Bang the door flew open as a figure like shadow dashes out followed by two orb chasing after it. The shadow and two orb flew down the stairs passing the landlady who was going the opposite way but not before giving a greeting''GOOD MORNING...IM SOOO LATE'' The lady took it as it was the norm because this happens almost every single day at around exactly the same time, as for not finding the orbs passing by her sight strange, it was because other people beside Kalm seems to not be able to see them.
Running toward his part-time job at a bookstore at break neck speed, he still finds the time to converses with his two comrade .
''I know, i should not be doing this every day'' kalm
''Ting,ting ting ting''Nite and Sun
''You two should try harder as my alarm clock next time:P''kalm
''DERING DERINGG RING!!''
''Hahaha'' this was the daily routine of these three individual but on this day an anomaly intruded upon their route.
While turning around the corner of an alleyway which Kalm frequently uses, he crashed into what felt like a sturdy wall which should not have been there.
Upon contact Kalm fell back bum first onto the wet floor, he then look toward the object that he had crash into and found that instead of a wall, there were five figure of people that Kalm knew very well. They were debt collector whom harasses him frequently using violences and among them was one that he fears immensely. Wearing clothing found in manga depicting yakuza, a purple inner collar shirt with a over coat together with bling accessories.
The man ask''Where are you rushing to little piggy''
''Ojima-san, can you please let me off today? I am on my way to work so that i can get the money to pay back what i owe you'' replied kalm while using his brain to think up the best responds to garner up as much point as possible to enable him to pass through without any problems.
''Little piggy,Oh little piggy i still haven receive the payment that you promised me three days ago...Look at me and my boys now, we are hungry and our wallet are empty because of that. I know you're gonna work hard to pay us what you owe but the trust given by us was misplaced, thus we must be compensated if not what would other people think about us in this line of business, you know i do not like to do this to my little piggy but it must be done'' An evil smirk appears on Ojima's lip as he approach Kalm together with his underlings.
Kalm knew that no matter what he do will not change the outcome as from the start the debt collector Ojima mind was already made up regardless. Even if he was paid he will still find fault with kalm and violence will ensue, this was the reason why Kalm was so fearful of him. Seeing the inevitable situation that was gonna happen, the orbs float forward placing themselves in between kalm and the other trying to shield him against his aggressor but all was for naught as what can two entities without any physical body do except to let them pass through their bodies.
Seeing how agitated and helpless his comrade was desperately try to fight back, Kalm felt warmth and happiness deep down in his chest.
''It's ok Sun,Nite..it will be fine'' says Kalm smiling with his eye closed waiting for what is about to happen.
Day turns to night as kalm laid face up against the sky, on his chest his companion was waiting for him to open his eyes.
Kalm with a bruised face woke up from his forced sleep, trying his hardest to open his eyes but could only manage one as the other was unable due to extensive bruising.He came upon the starless night sky covered with layer upon layers of dark polluted clouds before then moving down his sight towards his chest where two quiet yet warm presences waited for him to regain his bearing.
Kalm look upon them and says'' See i am fine, abit sore but fine'' as he try to create a smile through his overly swelled lips,'' Ah i got to wake up early tomorrow and apologies to the bookshop's owner for missing work today, i be counting on both of you(sun and nite) to wake me up on time k ''
'' Ting,Ting'' sounded out the orbs gently.
'' Aww i can't move my arms and leg... guess i must be too tired''
''I guess i will just have to rest here for tonight...ha,ha....ha''
''Ting''
''K, i be going.. to rest now... i've be counting..on...you guys to.. wake me..up tomor..row......yes....tomoo'' said Kalm as his voice turns into silences as it get softer and softer till it could no longer be heard any more.
The orbs stayed there with Kalm for nearly an hour even after his body had turned cold as if guarding their most important person. Afterwards both of them slowly sink down into his chest toward the bright warm white light where they were born from. Sun and Nite then floats around that warm light before lifting it up and exiting the now lifeless body . Carrying the light, the three then ascended into starless night sky toward the yonder and beyond.
