The Shoujo
Parallels: Eri
“Let the Sky fall.”
She
took her pistols out, facing the other side of the battlefield. There stood a
smirking Celeste and an irritated Alpha, but Eri wasn’t even paying attention
to them. She had her green eyes on the one in the center, the one with a
brandished sword that bore an orange hilt and dark gems. She gripped her
weapons tighter as Amaya turned to look at her, her own eyes stoic and
emotionless, warriors behind her. From her sides, she could feel Cissa and
Lisa’s tension and in that moment the truth hit her.
They
were in war, and it was lose-lose situation for them. If she would win with her
comrades, there would be a possibility these past friends of hers would rot in
jail or be buried in the soil. If they lost, then she would either be dead or
kicked out with her family. She grit her teeth, maintaining her stare with
Amaya. Silence filled the air and no one dared to move.
It
was only Cissa’s deafening yell that initiated the battle.
“ERI,
LOOK OUT!”
