The last ti I dug Luna up my fingernails broke and was covered in blood to the point that my bones were virtually visible. The pain within, however, far surpassed the pain on my fingers. I tightly hugged the young girl, who wouldnt ever open her eyes again, with my bloody hands and wailed.
The last ti I had to dig her up, I dug the dirt up with my scales. The dirt felt wet and heavy. I didnt know how long I dug for, but I kept digging until the sun went down. Little insects emitting light began to shroud the sky. The dim light lighted up the flower petals around. The entire area was dead silent. Not even an insect made a sound. The White Deer King silently stood behind similarly to a loyal sentry. My dragon scales were incredibly tough. The dirt and stones couldnt damage my dragon scales.
I didnt bury Luna very deep last ti, so I soon managed to make contact with the casket. I gently and carefully brushed off the dirt on top as though it was the side of Lunas face that I was stroking. I widened the hole. I ford a fist, and then violently smashed down onto the wooden casket.
I was especially strong after having the dragon blood reconstruct my body. Thankfully, I was able to smash the wooden casket open with a single punch. I then ripped it open from the centre, thereby gradually revealing Lunas body. Her hands folded across her chest looked so soft. They even glimred as if they were pearls thanks to the insects glow. I shakily reached down and grabbed hold of her hands. Her hands felt so cold that I pulled my hands back as though I was electrocuted. The spot I held sunk down and didnt bounce back up. Her soft skin didnt react again, because she was gone.
I was genuinely afraid. I didnt dare to look at Lunas face. My hand stopped right in front of it. I couldnt bear to pull the piece of wood away. My hand trembled intensely. I didnt know what to do. Before I arrived, I was so eager to see her face when she was revived; I didnt know why I was afraid all of a sudden. I mustve been afraid of her death. Her death was basically the destruction of my world. Leading up to her death, I thought I could protect those around , yet she died so pitifully.
I felt as though I was drowning in despair. I did so much, yet Luna still died because of . I could see my powerless self when I saw Luna. A loneso sense of despair gripped my heart and wouldnt let go. I guess I was reluctant to accept the past
I then suddenly felt an odd, warm sensation from behind. Surprised, I turned my head around to see the White Deer King touching . She gently nudged with its head as though it was trying to get to move. I suppose she was encouraging . I looked at the White Deer King with gratitude, but she turned her head away.
So, youre rushing , not because youre trying to comfort , but because you want to return sooner I assud.
I gave the wooden board a big push. Lunas face was once again bathed in the moonlight. Mommy Vyvyan wouldnt get her magic wrong, so Lunas face didnt undergo any change. She still had the smile she wore when I buried her. The smile on her face wasnt her true smile, however. The smile she wore in her casket was a fake one sobody put on her. It was completely different to what I rembered. I didnt want that sort of fake smile. I wanted Luna to be alive, and I wanted her authentic smile.
I gently carried Luna out from the casket. Her body was as light as a small pet, yet so heavy that my heart squird. I hugged her tightly in my embrace. My tears tried to surface again. I and pressed my face up against hers, but there was no warmth to be felt. All I could feel was the cold friction from my scales. I choked on my tears. Next to her ear, I softly whispered, Co back. Co back, Luna. Ive co to pick you up. Ive co to pick you up from the death god. Nobody can take those I care about from . Nobody
I placed Luna on the ground amongst the flowers. I then took out my dagger at my waist. My hands shook as I gently cut open her skin. That crazy bitch practically destroyed all of her organs. Her heart was ripped straight out. Her veins were torn. The sight of it felt as though my own heart was being stabbed. I almost puked at the sight of Lunas pale body. I wasnt scared of her appearance; I just the sorrow hit hard.
I took out Lunas insides. Fake organs were stuffed inside of her body so that her body could remain intact when she was buried. I tossed all the wooden stuff to a side, and then carefully took out the dragon heart and placed it where her heart was supposed to be. I took in a deep breath then checked to ensured that I placed it in the right location. I caressed her face. The dragons heart seed to sense the veins around and began to beat. It extended things similar to tentacles to reconnect the veins, but it still wasnt enough to repair all of her organs, for the reason that the mana was still missing a dium, naly blood. Luna had no blood left in her. I realised I had to use my own blood to activate the mana inside the dragons heart.
I took out my dagger and slashed my left wrist. Alas, no blood ca out. There was a crisp clash sound then the blade snapped in two. One half of it flew to another side. I looked at my wrist with a dumbfounded look. My scales shimred underneath the moonlight. I didnt even make a scratch. My skin had been replaced with dragon scales. As a consequence, I couldnt cut myself with a blade any more.
A hopeless realisation filled with despair. I had no way of getting myself to bleed. I was covered in dragon scales. None of the weapons I had on could damage my own dragon scales, and I couldnt bleed. I spaced out. The dragons heart was beating in Lunas chest, begging for blood to revive her. anwhile, I was out of ideas.
I ca all the way here just to lose to myself, I asked. How ironic. Others couldnt hurt , but I couldnt hurt myself to save my lover, either. I kept on trying to revive Luna, and after going all the way to her grave, I, ultimately, beca the obstacle from reviving her.
I sat on the ground and spaced out. The heart appeared to grow impatient and stopped beating. Even the veins that had been reconnected broke off again, leaving just a purple heart and Lunas defiled body there.
I was eager to go revive Luna the entire ti. All the damn ti. I made it there. I ca so far. I was just one step away, yet I couldnt take the final step. Nobody could hurt , including myself.
Aahh!!!!!!!
His loud howl echoed through the night and scared off the insects around. A strong gust of wind containing grief and despair passed by, shaking everything it passed by. The clouds collected together. Thunder claps rumbled, and flashes of lightning flashed. One mans grief and despair destroyed the peace. He was released his powerlessness and despair on every inch of the land.
I huffed and puffed. The lung-tearing scream literally drained all of my energy. I aggressively pulled over a rock and smashed it down on my left hand with all my might. The rock was completely shattered when it bashed my hand, but I was in so much despair that I couldnt feel a tickle. I looked at my left hand that didnt have a blemish on it.
What do I do? What do I do?!!!! What do I have to do to save my Luna?! What do I have to do to bleed? I shouted in my mind.
I bit down on my lip as hard as I could to try and get a drip of blood on the dragons heart. It beat a few tis, but then the drip of blood vanished within an instant. It was pointless, though. It just beat a few tis, and then it craved blood more than before. However, the wound on my lip healed almost instantly. Was I supposed to bite my lip over and over, and then feed the heart one drop at a ti? It wasnt enough blood. Not remotely close to enough. I couldnt provide the heart with enough blood using my lips.
I raised the blade again and stabbed my wrist. The blade crumbled to bits similarly to droplets of water or, better yet, tears of despair. I roared loudly as I watched the blade crumble to bits, leaving just the handle and my pain of despair. I didnt know what to do.
The clouds blocked out the moonlight overhead. The thunderclap and lightning accompanied a heavy downpour. I crawled over the top of Lunas body to avoid letting it get wet. I covered her and looked at her with despair. The thunderclaps overpowered my roars. The rain ran down my face and dripped onto Lunas face.
I panicked: What do I do? What do I bloody do? I dont know. What on Earth do I have to do..? My blood I really want my blood Theres no way to pierce the dragon scales. Only Xia can cut them and make bleed. How long would it take for to go to the North and call her here? Ive already damaged Lunas body, so her body will decay. Luna will seriously decay in her current state
Moreover, shell decay extrely quickly. By the ti I reach the North, all that will remain of her will be her skeleton. A dragons blood may be able to repair damaged organs, but it cant turn a skeleton into my lover What in the world do I do?
I shakily raised my left arm. Owing to the rain, my scales had so creases, revealing my pink flesh underneath as well as a ditch. I suddenly had an idea A very bold idea
