For you #7



Heila was researching for other scripts that Jackson, a writer of <The Made Of This World>. He sent some other scripts or writings that he found. There was a writing that Heila couldn't understand. 



Before the person becomes the last element,

It will be a challenge for the person. 

The light will be found in the darkness. 

If the person understands it will be the last element. 

"Oh, come on, what does it mean?" Heila mumbled. 

She wanted Rowen's help, but he wasn't there with her. He was now out at the supermarket. Heila knew that he would come, so she didn't mind. 

'I should ask it Irene now.' Heila thought. 

Irene was one of the two people that Heila could believe. She helped Heila when she was young and was the only friend that Heila had. Even when she was called a witch or a monster, Irene was always with her. She always helped her with all her heart. Irene was so trusting. 

『Hey Irene, can you figure out what it means?』

Heila sent her a message. While she was waiting for Irene's answer, she searched more. 

Heila woke up at midnight. She fell asleep while she was searching for the scripts. She looked out at the window. It was all dark. The silence was filling the place. Nothing was changed before she fell asleep. 

"How long did I sleep for..." 

She looked up at her phone. It was 3 o'clock a.m.Irene didn't reply to her. Heila thought that it was too late and wanted to sleep more. But when she stood up, she felt something strange. Like something was going wrong. 

'I can't smell anything. If Rowen was here, he would make some food. Besides, why was I sleeping on the floor? Didn't he come?' 

Heila knocked on the door and went into his room. 

"Hey, are you here?" Heila asked. 

But he wasn't there. Something was going wrong. Heila quickly unlocked her phone and made a call to his phone. As you guessed he didn't answer to her. Heila's brain stopped for a moment but she thought about where he will be. 

'He never goes out this long. Besides, he was going to the supermarket. He should have come before. There was no text message or call. It means that no one didn't find him. Let's think of the place where people don't go at night.' 

Heila thought of it. It was not a good thing but there was no time to do anything. She got ready to go out and went to the nearest mountain. 

"Oh, come on! Why is he not answering my call!" Heila shouted. 

She was searching all over the mountain. She was holding only hope that the mountain was a small one. She was hoping that she could find him fast. About an hour later, while Heila was still running in the dark, she heard a sound. It sounded like Rowen's phone call. Heila rushed to that sound. But even though the sound was very near, she couldn't find him. Maybe it was lucky, she found his phone. Its screen was all cracked and it was all dirty. She had to find a way to do it. But it was too hard for her. She didn't want to lose her last family, but there were all kinds of bad thoughts in her head. Heila looked at her hand. 

"What can I do...... Maybe..." 

Heila put her hand on the ground. She used all of her magic to get into the ground. Few cracks appeared. The blue light came from the ground. Heila's body glowed as she used her power. BOMB- There was a small shake but it was enough to make the trees move. Pump- Something fell from one of the trees. She looked back and gasped. It was Rowen. His body was covered in blood, and his eyes were looking at the air like he was looking at someone. 

"Rowen, can you hear me? Are you okay? Hey.." 

She shook him but there was no answer. 

"It's okay, you'll be alright..." 

Heila knew that it was a lie to make her less sad. Because she knew that, it made her feel more terrible. For the last goodbye, she hugged Rowen's body and began to cry. Tears crossed her cheeks and fell from her face. Heila couldn't find anything for a minute. She didn't know something was happening. Her tears made a big water drop and made a shape. It was blue like Heila's magic. Heila looked up and again but she was not surprised at this time. It was hard for her to get emotional. The water drop seemed to take her somewhere. 

"The light will be found in the darkness...The person who understands it will be the last element." She knew now. 

"This is a thing that I should get on."

Heila looked at Rowen's face. His eyes were already out but he wasn't closing it. 

'You are telling me the way I should go even though you are not here.' 

She closed his eyes with her hand and stood up. She knew the thing she had to do. Even a great darkness was covering her, she had to do something. Heila stepped some and turned her head to Rowen. 

"You finally knew that I had to go in this way. I will come again after everything is finished...... Goodbye." 

Her last tear fell. Her back looked like it was much harder than any of the time.

To be continued.
