《Red Orange》The Truth
Advertisement
Isen holds me close to him. I felt like such a child. I was crying into his chest during school hours. I just... didn't want him mad at me. I didn't want to lose him or anything. "You are still my anchor." He had said to me. He would always call me that when I was upset. I mumble into his chest. "I'm sorry..."
I feel him move his head. I look up at him. I watch as his face changes from "I shall give you nothing but my love and attention" to "No, please don't give me those emotions.." Isen hated seeing me cry. I hated seeing him cry too.
Back when we were helping Remi with EMBER, which we aren't anymore, I yelled at Isen as he was crying. It had hurt me so much to see him in that state, but I had to make him get up. It was to save Remi. I had to do something. "Please don't turn your dreamy eyes into ocean eyes..." Isen says as he uses his shirt to clean off my face. I lean my head into his hand. It felt like his touch had controlled my emotions and made me cry. The moment I feel his hand, his warmth, his heart beat, I break down. I'm holding his hand to my head and crying. At this point classes already begone and teachers don't care about noise. "Isen, I'm sorry, I should have said something sooner.." I say trying to calm down. I felt his worrying gaze. I look at him still crying. He pulls me close to him. I hug him, crying into his chest once again. Suddenly I felt something wet hit my nose.
Isen was crying.. He wasn't crying as much as I was but he still had a smile on his face. Nothing about his expression had change, other then him now having a few tears fall from his eyes. I felt my tears calm down as he looks at me. At this point I wanted to run off and hide. I wanted to go to Holden's dorm, where I had been staying at, and just hide from the world. Seeing Isen cry because of me just broke me. I stop hugging him and look down away from him. I could now see my own tears fall to the ground. I see his hand reach up to my face. He lifts my head to look at him. I hated myself. My own emotions had triggered his emotions. He cleans off his face of his tears. After he does it looks like he wasn't crying at all. "Blyke, you know I hate seeing you so upset. Please, tell me what's wrong.. Tell me the truth" He says.

Elliot isn't the first one taken, he was the last, or one of them at least. Careless divines, gods, or higher powers had been snatching humans through numerous means over the years.

Eventually resulting in a mass exodus of the remaining powerless humans by a coalition of gods.Now translocated to Vauthia where everyone has been given a path to power. They're met with an unfortunate reality. They've only been rescued from one dying world to be tasked with saving the new one. While at the same time they're apparently supposed to compete with one another. Meanwhile Elliot wasn't just given a path to power. He was given a choice. The opportunity for true power is offered. When as he reaches for it the power isn't all it's cracked up to be.Systemless in a world where everyone else has access to one Elliot must grapple with a multitude of problems from without and within.

Will he be able to catch up to his fellow earthlings who're ever increasing in power? Is it possible he may just break out of his shell along the way?*** What to expect ***The initial start will be quite slow, building the setting, history, and individuals involved. There is a small bit of progression in these early chapters for the MC, but more along the lines of figuring out how their systemless power works. though once the story gains traction it won't stop.*** Don't tell Elliot, but ***Elliot hates to admit it but he's very clearly antisocial. Not to mention troubles with thinking that stem from several un-diagnosed disorders he'd rather believe don't exist.*** Image Copyright *** //In this satellite image released by Copernicus Sentinel imagery, 2020 twitter page dated Dec. 31, 2019, shows wildfires burning across Australia.
