Chapter 21
Yo, The Eclipse Mark has 1k reads.
What?
Way more than I ever thought, so thank you.
Jesus
Okay. Hi! This is Luna. It's um... been a while. I just want to say... I'm sorry.
But... um, I know what's going to happen and I felt like maybe I should tell it. So, here I am.
I'm not scared.
I think.
So, I don't know what happened on the other side. I know Solar enchanted a spear to be able to kill gods. However, it needs... needed magic energy. The more mages he killed, the more it charged.
He was ready.
So, I come down. Sunrise and Solar are talking, yelling really. I don't see anyone else.
They have already fought a little, both are a little shaken up. Sunrise doesn't want to let her brother go, Solar wants to forget her. The Eclipses are all together.
We try to talk him out of it, but it only gets him angrier. He raises the spear.
He aims at Sunrise.
~~~
"Solar, please. You don't want to do something you'll regret! Please! Just come back... just come home. We'll forgive you eventually, just please..."
"Shut up! SHUT UP! I'm not coming back! She left us, you left me... Sam left me. I'm Yin, you're Yang. I don't want balance, I want this! I'm not gonna regret it!"
"Balance will come one way or another. You kill her, something else kills you. Just... please."
Or something like that. I don't know.
So then, I come in.
"So, the absentee mother is here."
"You need to stop this. I don't want you to become Lucifer, Etheria does not deserve-"
"Who cares about Etheria? Why can't I have what I want for one second? You left us, you left right when I thought you were back."
"That's the price to see her, you know this."
"THERE SHOULDN'T BE A PRICE TO SEE MY MOTHER! SHE SHOULDN'T HAVE PUT ONE PERSON OVER HER FAMILY!"
"Solar..."
"SHUT UP! I'LL SHUT YOU UP!"
He points the spear at Sunrise. I see the sun and the moon dramatically move across the sky... right above him.
They line up to form a perfect eclipse
Oh how I've hated eclipses.
And a beam shoots out.
And I make my choice.
"MOM! MOM NO!"
"This is what should've happened... all those years ago."
Solar looks... shocked.
He knows what I know.
"You... why?"
He breathes out the words, probably a little shaken.
Because...
The beam couldn't hurt humans. Only gods.
And I knew.
"I'm sorry."
And that's how he killed a god.
And I... don't blame him.
I've never been scared of death... but I suppose this is different. I'm not dying... I'm disappearing. My being will disappear. I won't be among the dead... I'll just be gone.
I suppose I should've said goodbye to my friends first... but I don't think I could've done it if I had to face them. And I knew he wouldn't stop until...
I can't wait?
I...
I'm sorry.
I'm so so... sorry.
A god is dead...
Such a silly thought.
"MOM! NO! COME BACK, PLEASE! Mom... you can't die again. I need you... don't say sorry... please. Just come back."
"Mom... thank you..."
