prolouge - the beginning

Death is the one thing every single creature on this earth is afraid of, every creature strives to survive and yet here I am with a sword in my chest. Well you are probably worrying what happened right? So let’s start from the beginning.

My name is Alex. I am 16 years old and an orphan. I live in a small rented single room apartment (the kind college students usually use); I used to live in an orphanage until I was 12, after which I was thrown out because the orphanage stopped receiving funds from the government. Now I work a lot of different part time jobs like delivering newspapers, milk in the morning, waiting tables at a restaurant, construction and the list goes on. Since I am illegally employed being a minor, the employers make use of this fact to wring me for all I am worth. The pay is half of what others receive and they make me work more.

By the way I forgot to mention that the only solace that I found from my loneliness was books. They were my only past time and my way of escaping reality. Of course I never bought them; I only borrowed them from a local library. At first I only read novels but soon I started reading books about everything from history to physics.

Every day was the same routine, I would get up go to work, come home and read on my PC. All this changed tonight, I was walking home (if you can call it that) from work at around eight. The street was busy with a lot of cars whirring past me. All of a sudden, a car which was passing me disappeared into thin air. I was startled at what was going on, when I heard a deafening explosion from somewhere. I heard a lot more explosions all around me but I couldn’t find the source. Then one happened right in front of me. Only then did I realize that was not an explosion but a sonic boom.

My legs started trembling at just the thought of what was causing a sonic boom. After a second I realized that there was not one but two of them happening at almost the same time. I had never seen or heard anything like this in my entire life; I thought something like this happens only in manga or light novels. Then the sounds stopped to reveal two females. In an instant they were I front of me before I could even react. What I saw literally took my breath away.

Both of them were wearing similar clothes, a full body suit that looked like it was from some science fiction movie. Both of them resembled each other as if they were sisters, they were the most beautiful women I had ever seen. One had black hair (will refer to as first), extending all the way down to her back holding two daggers in here hand, while the other had dark blue hair (will refer to as second), till her shoulders was holding a long sword. What stood out were their deep blue eyes which currently were staring at me.

“Who are you?” asked the second woman while I was still in a daze from before.

“I am Alex.” I just said my name not knowing what to say.

“How did you get inside this dimension?” asked the first.

“Huh!! What dimension? I don’t know what you are saying. Who are you guys?”

“That does not matter to you. Now tell me why you are here or else you are dead. Simple right” said the first woman with a devilish smile sending a chill down my spine.

Trembling, I could only nod.

I explained what had happened still contemplating what would happen to me after.

The second woman asked the other “now what?”

“Well he is telling the truth, just erase his memory and let’s get on with our spar.”

“What do you mean erase my memory?” I retorted.

Without giving an answer the second woman reached out with her hand. It had greenish blue hue around it. I didn’t resist as there was nothing I could do or say that could have changed their minds. It stayed like that for a few minutes and then nothing happened. Their faces were starting to show frustration.

“How is this possible? You can enter anybody’s mind, so why can’t you enter his?” asked the other.

“I don’t know. There has only been …”

The blue haired woman’s face showed a bewildered expression as if something she had never dreamed about was going on. I think I saw a tear forming in her eyes.

“Well in that case there’s only one way to solve this.”

The next instant I felt a sudden pain in my chest and I saw her sword in my chest, it had cleanly pierced my heart. I felt blood coming up my throat and I collapsed certain that I would die. The last thing I saw was a brilliant white light floating around me before drifting off to an eternal sleep or so I thought.

“What the …!” exclaimed the black haired woman.

“Just as I feared” said the blue haired woman in a low whisper.
