Raven POV
Finally I'm back home.
I can't wait for all this to be over. I stretched my wings and laid on the bed like a dead bird. I heard footsteps approaching the door, my 'leige' is here. I said with mirth in my tone.
I looked towards the door waiting for the offering to come through.
"What the hell is taking long him to enter?"
Suddenly the door was slammed opened, and the ant was rolling of the floor while moaning in pain. The pain has to be something, else he won't be squealing like a pig right now. I flew towards to the top cupboard to get ambrosia for the insect, and drop the bottle for him to pick. Watched as he hurriedly rushed to pick it up and drink. Almost like his predecessor 'too beautiful but weak' and weakness is not appreciated in this situation.
Finally he stopped siezing on the floor, and stood up properly. His snow white hair fell down like a waterfall reaching his back, his neon blue eyes took on a hazy hue. His dark wheat colored skin marred with various injuries from his folly, although well built...
BANGGGGGGGGGGGG!!
Like as if lighting was going through my veins, something changed. I looked at him from the corner of my eye covered with chain like tattoos that appeared all of sudden. He was screaming like someone being skinned alive, scratching his own skin a little too much. If I genuinely paid him mind well, I'll notice clumps of his flesh and blood in his fingernails.
But right now something was wrong, everything was wrong. The ground was shaking like there was an earthquake, I flew out of the window. The sky was bellow the ground, like everything switched. I looked down below people crying, praying, panicking while some looked at everything with fascination in their eyes. Suddenly the sky went pitch black, the sun disappeared. What everyone saw was a hand, a necrotic hand. You could see the bones and the worm burrowing through the flesh, the hand had seven fingers with the extra two being weird tentacles. It was holding the sky in it's hands, the greenish haze around it was the only source of light, you could see it reflecting from everyone's eyes. That instant everyone became mad at the same time and started running towards the light.
This..
This where all elves, higher than thou elves rushing towards the light like barbarians. Even slaves, animals rushed out towards the light, everyone climbing above each other like zombies. This was not supposed to happen, I thought she knew everything....
The foundation of the castle couldn't take it, it started crumbling down, walls started falling on people everywhere.
Overseer's POV
Everything paused.
Everyone got frozen, the weather took multitude of forms still. From rain to hail, but nothing could move.
I couldn't move too, but I could still think.
All of a sudden, every single cloud disappeared.
Letting mortals see the void for the first time in their sad life. Then we moved, faster than our atoms could hold together, stretching everything impossibly. Till somehow absolved from death.
I could hear music still. Like the grim reaper was playing us a comforting piece but it wasn't. I looked at the time frozen wasteland, it looked like a cruel artwork. It felt like it was eternity suddenly the void disappeared and all we saw was red.
Red!!
Everything was red, it looked almost like a sordid painting as the spectrum disappeared. As the symphony increased in intensity and the painting of impossibly stretched mortals at the background.
Mortals?
The Gods too, for the first time we all share the same fate.
I shifted my perception towards Evore, that bird can think too...
How?
Adonis POV
I opened my eyes to red, impossibly bright sordid red everywhere. I can't move too.. I saw outside, two elve children earlier playing, now stretched almost to a thread.
We where moving, I could feel it. I'm sure most people could feel it. I tried looking at my body, I saw worms all over my body, burrowing through my body. Eyes later appear all over my body. Somehow I gained the ability to move. I thought somehow I was absolved from the stretching, but my body parts was scattered everywhere. I moved like I was moving through a vicious fluid and picked up the body parts I could get. After what seemed like a while my leg was complete and I got my left eye, although it was layed sideways on my face. Then the excruciating pain, like my body was rejecting itself.
I couldn't get my right arm, but at this put my only goal was reaching my window to see properly. A toads mouth appeared on my stomach with jaggared nail-like teeth. It started mumbling.
"Sepyu uio magnum favep erochi"
"Sepyu uio magnum favep erochi"
"Sepyu uio magnum favep erochi"
"Sepyu uio magnum favep erochi"
The eyeballs all over my body started twitching left and right, with pus coming out of them. My body started bloating unnaturally, gaining mass.
I could only watch helplessly as I continously mutated... No disfigured towards something sick. I felt something with the crazy headache I have, like something was trying to break free from my skull.
Arghhhh...please...stop.
My head..
Please stop, I cried.
No one could hear me, I couldn't hear myself.
I was loosing something too..
Oxygen!! I desperately gasped for air but nothing. The firmament has gone!!
So I continued screaming for the headache to stop, scratching the itch on my skin. My hands filled with blood,flesh and pus from my body meanwhile the mouth on my stomach continued its cruel repeat, never ending and the eyes never stopped twitching. My body continued growing bigger, I couldn't do anything.
I prayed to every god I knew.
I prayed to the Outer god of my dreams.
To the demigods.
To my enemies for forgiveness.
To my father.
To my mother.
To anyone.
"Please help me, ma ma make it stop. Please anyone. I'll do anything, just please make it stop." I pathetically cried out. But it was like talking in a vacuum. Snot and tears was all over my tumor ridden face. My head it continued ringing, plus that evil hymn sounding.
My prayer changed..
I wished to die.
I wanted to die.
Continued praying to anyone for death. I found out I've been struggling for air for hours to no avail. I can't die either.
All of a sudden I couldn't feel my mouth. I could somehow see myself in another view from the eyeballs on the right arm I couldn't collect. As this information entered my thoughts, the visual perception of every eye entered my head at the same time. Worsen the headache, it looked like a slab of flesh has sealed my mouth, I tried using my teeth to bite the flesh off.
I couldn't still do anything. I switched perception to my arm and watched my abominable self. Utterly wretched, I couldn't help but to start crying.
What could I do?
"Nothing!"
I looked towards the grotesque smiling mouth at where my stomach used to be, in fear.
Please help me.
