Ash-boss
The return of Eren.

In the dense smog surrounding his figure, Laras kept his feet firmly following wherever the red-eyed shadow was heading. As he was led to follow the red-eyed figure, Laras was stopped by a hand that pulled him behind a stone between the black smoke billowing down the place.

"Shut up!" the figure hissed irritated at the bravery or stupidity of Laras who boldly followed the red-eyed figure.

The figure followed by Laras is the guardian of eternal fire, where the guard has the task to destroy everything that is outside the path of life. And in this case, the barrel is included in the intended variable.

While the figure of Laras himself was even silent with his stupidity staring at the figure who is now crouching in front of him who is watching the shadow behind the concentration of black fog that surrounds his figure and also Laras.

"You're such a stupid woman!" the raucous voice made Laras powerless to refrain from hugging the figure. He was as excited as to make dark and dense clouds lock their steps. But the figure of the young man with a raucous voice rushed to hide Laras behind his cloak. The tattered gray robe was able to hide the figure of Laras behind it.

From behind the robe of the young man with a raucous voice, Laras noticed how the wings of the bones were clinging but fragile to the back of the young man with a raucous voice. The barrel tried to touch some parts. The bone-shaped wings move slowly. But every movement he made some part of the wing was porous and fell to the bottom of his feet. The barrel looks at the fallen parts. How the falling parts immediately disappeared burned and left only the ashes scattered and mixed with the dense air around them.

"Why are your wings so fragile?" Laras murmuring. A great wind blew against the side of the robe and made Laras bounce far away with the figure of a raucous young man protecting him.

"Akh!!" I cried as soon as I fell to the ground.

Indeed, not all parts of him that touch the ground, because the figure of the young man with a raucous voice that protects him as before. Only a few feet and elbows were slightly chafed, while the young man with a raucous voice appeared unconscious. Seen some of the wings in the form of bones have been separated and porous. Making some parts behind the back of the young man with a raucous voice let out a pitch-black air.

"Eren! What's going on!" pekik Laras who immediately tried to escape slowly from the young man's embrace. Soon Laras checked the condition of the young man in front of him. The young man was indeed without injuries, but some parts of his body really looked chaotic. Her robes are tattered. Some parts of his clothes were torn and scarred like the image of a burning paper but without a flame. The difference was that the flame did not widen, he only formed a frame from the scratches on his left arm, cheek, and leg.

Baras no matter what really happened immediately memapah Eren figure down the path of red brick. The place where he was together with Aksara and Zara before parting ways due to the dense black smog earlier.

From a distance Laras noticed that the dense black smog was back down the road they were about to pass. So Laras tried to push Eren to the side of the red brick path to hide behind a tree trunk that soared so high.

"I hope it's safe here." murmured Laras trying to tend Eren to a tree branch beside him. Slowly Laras lowered Eren's hand from his shoulder.

"Don't make any noise." said Eren stammering.

Laras nodded slowly. He helped Eren who had suddenly regained consciousness, then did not move in the slightest as a dense black plume of smoke along with the figure of the immortal doorman passed through the part where they were hiding.

Of the things that happened, the concern of Laras was every wound that Eren received. I don't know what kind of fight he did that he had to get hurt that badly. Until making his robe is not as complete as before. Even the robe now makes his figure that used to look spooky but neat, now even looks really creepy. Even more sinister when Laras saw part of Eren's face turned into a human skull. It was no longer a mask like it used to be, but it had already become part of Eren's own face.

"What really happened?"

"You care about me?" Eren seemed to be smiling behind the face of his skull.

Laras nodded. "Why did you get like this?" the tears were no longer held back but still dammed at the end of his eyes.

"You yourself! What are you doing by following the figure of the eternal fire doorman?" eren's eyes suddenly widened. It was as if he had not expected the foolishness that Laras had done before his eyes.

"I just thought it was that figure..." Baras did not continue his words. He was silent stiff when the eyes collided with the gaze of a guard who he had thought was another figure Eren.

"Don't move!" Laras only glanced at Eren and then looked back at the glint of red eyes that had suddenly been at a distance of less than a handful of hands in front of him.

A cold Eve burst out all over Laras' body. Making Laras' body no longer feels stiff, but as if it is locked by a figure who is now exchanging views with him.

While Eren still trying to keep quiet so as not to invite reflex attacks from the eternal flame guard. Thinking of something to do if at once the figure of the guard attacked without warning.

"Too many souls depend on you." The echo of the voice echoed loudly in Laras' ear.

Fear attacked Laras heard a voice that was more sinister than the roar of another figure Eren. His body grew stiffer and his breath felt choked in the throat.

"You're lucky their souls are with you, otherwise today is the last day of your right to life. Too many sins will be created if you perish today!"

After saying that sentence, the figure of the eternal flame guard passed and passed through Laras and Eren by crossing them. Laras' body was penetrated by the figure of the eternal flame guard. It made Laras hear another sentence that was being thrown by the figure of the guard.

" There will be a time when we will meet again..."

Laras body that feels stiff immediately like it has been released in the bond that holds him. The barrel immediately took a deep breath with the hunt. Slowly he adjusted his breathing and turned his gaze to the figure of Eren covering part of his face with his palm.

"What's wrong?" Laras tried to pull the hand from Eren's face. "Why your face?"

Instead of letting Laras see his face, Eren held Baras' hand and looked at him even more irritatedly.

"What did you guys just talk about?"

Laras looked at the young man before him fixedly. The skull's face disappeared. Replaced with the figure of Eren at the beginning of their meeting. The annoying face that first snapped at Laras because of his own stupidity.

"It's nothing." Laras replied as soon as Eren turned that face away from him.

"It looks like you're getting away with one life now?" Eren got up from his seat. Wiped off all the wounds he had gotten before. Change his clothes just by wagging up his tattered ash cloak.

"It looks so." Laras glanced at Eren's face which the young man kept hiding from him. But in the mind of Laras, the last sentence of the eternal flame guard he could not forget at all.

His steps continued to follow Eren's footsteps to get out of where they were hiding, and who would have thought once Eren turned his back, Laras instead hit him and made the gazes of the two meet. Laras blinked his eyes. Staring deeply into Eren's eyeball which now seemed empty and hollow.

"What else do you want to know?!" eren's raucous voice returned along with the appearance of another Eren figure behind the young man's back. While Eren who was standing before him smiled in an unusual way.
