Endless Winter's
[Don't Break The Ice] Chapter 1: Prologue
“So that? That's her... What does the Emperor mean? Who exactly is that tall figure? What's the real purpose? No one knows, other than myself!” muttered Venatrix monitoring from behind her luxurious window.
The figure looked back at him...
“Ugh.... What is this feeling!? How can he mengeta-.”
“You already know many things.. Remember! This is just the beginning... Speaker Of Darkness will always be watching you!” The thunderous voice intimidated anyone who heard it.
“...”
Venatrix could not see, falling down in cold sweat. Even his breathing can not be adjusted, the possibility of shortness of breath.
“Paduka, let's hurry! We get out of here before it's too late!” said one of the queen's bodyguards just came.
“Eh... ah, yes.. please help me!”
“You all right, Your Majesty? Is anyone hurt?” The bodyguard was worried.
“No... no, I'm fine. Let's get out of here!”
“Good, Sire! Let me help you to stand.” said the Guards swiftly deliver him to the horse carriage.
“What about the others? Why are you two alone?” ask Venatrix.
“Before, I want to apologize. All the guards had been killed because of the giant puppet. And we got here too thanks to Amanda's protection during the attack. We had no other choice, we retreated and left them all.” A Controller said of the re-creation.
“Keparat! What kind of monster could kill such an army in an instant?!! In fact, my people became strange and approached the monster! This must not be allowed to continue!” inner Venatrix who bit her thumb.
“Take it easy, Your Majesty. We're going to evacuate to Elven Country for a while. After that is done, then everything will be fine.” A bodyguard who tried to calm Venatrix down.
“Hmmm.. I hope so, I guess.”
“Hey, how long does it take to get to the elf kingdom, buddy?” shouts Guard A to Guard B.
“I think about two to three days!” sahut Guard B.
Long story short, when they started to move away from the kingdom, Suddenly...
*.....!!!!!
“What rowdy sound is that?!” ask Venatrix.
“Entah... Hey, what was that noise?” A guard asked his friend.
“Oh shit! This is impossible! It's impossible!” exclaim Pangawal B which accelerates the speed of the train.
“What's up, man? Sounds like an explosion, am I wrong?” A's bodyguards questioned what his friend saw.
“Our magnificent palace exploded! And now, we're being chased by the shock wave!” the B Guards.
“What?! Who would dare to do that? Answer that! Why is this train getting faster?” firmly Venatrix widened both her eyes.
“Salju! The snow! Snow Avalanche Storm!!!!” exclaimed Guard B who tried to push his horse harder.
“What is this friend of yours saying?” Ask Venatrix.
“He's right! Hurry along! Faster! The snow avalanche is getting closer!” guard A shouted suddenly into a panic.
“Yes yes, I know, stupid! These horses can't go any faster!” guard B said with cold sweat drenching his body.
“What the fuck are you two, it is true there is a long-..”
The unbelieving Venatrix looked out. As if peeling due to too long peeping. How horrible the view he saw.
An avalanche caused by the previous explosion, with a high speed that tried to devour a horse carriage that was only a lump of insects.
“What are you doing, Your Majesty?! Quickly enter before frostbite strikes you!” resolute Guard A's pulling back Venatrix.
“...”
“You okay, your majesty? Stay calm, and don't panic! My friend and I will take care of everything. I'll be back.” ' said Guard A who exited the carriage of the horse-drawn carriage.
“Huh... ! It seems. This is the end. This is the last time.” muttered Venatrix pulled something from her bag in the form of a cigarette.
The queen casually inhaled the cigarette without thinking about the surroundings.
“Hmmpp... Aahh... this is life!” With his resignation, he once again inhaled it one last time, before being declared lost.
____________-----------------___________--------------_______________
For the past two years, cool breezes have hit almost all continents, and even the whole world has been unable to enjoy the morning sun. At worst there will be the issue of hunger in various places-There is nothing worse than hunger, some types of parasitic fungi are already waiting to release their spores, perch to the host and give full control of the infection of the central organ.
On the other hand, it looks like someone is rushing through the crowd and then running, bumping into some people because not focusing is just normal. However, it's different when he bumps into a drunken woman-it shouldn't deal with him next time.
“Hoi... hoi... what makes a rush, son?!” women with glasses and brunettes.
“Wait a minute, son! You think our business is done? Huh huh? Not so fast!”
The woman restrained the poor young man's shoulders.
“What do you want? I'll give you anything, but let me go!”
Shaking, the young man dared himself to speak up.
“Hmm.... How many do you have now?” ask the woman.
“Uh... anu.. sorry... I only have this, is it enough?” whispered the young man while reaching into his pocket and giving all his money to the drunken woman.
“Hmmm... huh! It's still less! And you know the consequences, don't you?!” taunt the woman.
The woman then carried the plain young man away from it, along with a few black robes moving swiftly following them.
"Why so fast?! Where do you want to take me?!" the blonde youth shouted to make it sound clear.
"Make nanya... Of course I'm taking you to the black market!" replied the mad woman who pulled the young man's arm to make it go faster.
"What?!!" the screams of the plain young man who was trying to take off his grip.
Shortly after, the woman stopped in a dark, empty alley.
"Huh.huh... Huh...! What was that? Why should it be sudden! Are we spared from them?" cetus the young man.
"..."
Not long after, those who were chasing the young man just now, showed themselves with bandit-style equipment. They were cornered by him, and there was no way out anymore.
"How is this?! We're finished!" the blond man's moans.
"Hmmm... Hehehe...! How else!" muttered the woman while discarding and turning off the unfinished cigarette.
Without a second thought, the bandits directly attacked them simultaneously, yet it was before...
Reacting to that, the young man was resigned and could only duck and close his eyes. What he heard, a cry of pain, a slash of fresh blood everywhere, even then he still remembered to pray to God.
Feeling safe, he slowly turned around and opened his eyes wide to believe what he was seeing now.
Justjust right...
"Who are you really?" ask the young man who is amazed.
"Hehehe... Only a drunken drifter would profit from it." the woman replied while taking off her glasses.
Increasingly confused, the young man tried to permeate the words just now. For so long, he could only watch the drunken woman cleaning her glasses from the bloodstains.
"Anu... Ma'am, can I go now?" ask the young man again.
"Hmmmph...?"
Instantly make him stop cleaning his glasses.
"..."
The young man was too nervous to wait for his answer, plus a cynical look that made him want to disappear from it as well.
"Well... You may. Before that, I want you to answer all my questions honestly." added the brunette while looking at her glasses that looked clean.
"Ah... Thank goodness! Earlier, I said a big thank you, Good Mistress!" said the young man who gave thanks by bowing his body.
"Don't call me madam! I have my own calling." insisted the woman.
"Oh, really? Then what's your name?"
"Hmmmph-g... We're not gonna do this here. I know the right place for this." suggested the grimacing woman.
The young man could only swallow his own saliva.
