The Dark Heir

The Dark Heir
Fugitives


"Gerald"


"Gerald"


The voice of a man filled my head.I experienced this incident again.Genesis where I could not see anything.Genesis where only darkness enveloped me.


"Gerald!"


Slowly a speck of light was seen by me.L slowly open both my eyes.See Lilia and Robert with their clothes are messy and dirty.Their condition is like being panting.


"W-what happened brother?" I asked while trying to wake up.


"Ah Gerald, I-I think it would be better for you not to stand first" Lilia said


I looked at Lilia's face.The face that used to look very beautiful dazzling, now turned dirty covered by the dust of the fight.Similarly with Robert.The face that used to look handsome and cold, and, now it looks red with blood from its enemies.


I decided to sit down to see the surrounding conditions.We were in a large park of the royal capital.Some Sentinels were seen gathering in several places, looking for our lost existence.


"Sir, what happened to our family?" tanyaku.


Lilia and Robert looked at each other, even they themselves did not know the answer.Take my eyes to the road to our house.Thick black smoke was seen soaring high in the night sky.And slowly, my tears dripped.


I haven't cried like this in a long time.


"Gerald! you're okay, right?" lilia asked with a worried look.


"How can I say it's okay? we lost everything! parents, homes, even people who are always with us!" sahutku.


Lilia flinched looking at me.It is rare for me to vent all of my stored emotions like this.


"Pardon us Gerald, really forgive us" said Robert who suddenly grabbed me.


That night I cried for quite a long time.The three of us hugged each other and shed our tears.And from that night, difficulties began to fall on our lives.


...****************...


"Since when have you had that dark power, Gerald?" robert asked without taking his eyes off the smoke in the distance.


We went from the main park of the capital city to the top of the clock tower of the capital.This place was almost never entered by ordinary people.Therefore we went to this place to rest.


"You-maybe about a year ago brother", I stammered.


"Why didn't you ever tell us?" tanya Lilia interrupted the conversation.


"I-I'm afraid brother, I'm afraid you'll hate me when you know that I have this power" I replied.


The sound of the animals of the night sounded quite loud, filling the silence in this conversation.


"You kidding me?" ask Robert.


"Eh, what do you mean, brother?" my reply.


"You don't have to keep your powers a secret from us Gerald".


Eh? I didn't hear wrong, did I? Lilia told me not to keep it a secret to them?


I looked at Lilia's face with a carefree smile that I used to see was not very visible on her face.I know Lilia and Robert hid their emotions in front of me.I know they tried to hide their tears so as not to come out in front of me.I know in front of me.


"Did mom and dad know about your powers?" robert asked with a cold look.


Robert sighed, He looked like he was disappointed with the strength I had.


"Eh, why is this fence open?"


Me, Robert, and Lilia immediately stood up.Someone was already near us.


"Have you forgotten to lock it?" answer someone who is with him.


"No way, I lock this fence every night"


"Hey look, it looks like this was forcibly opened by someone"


Robert sighed to hear it.I think Robert was the one who forcibly opened the fence.


"Damn", whispered Robert.


"Hey, I think there's someone here"


"Truely, this fence can't possibly open on its own"


Suddenly one of them turned to look at me.I immediately hid and away from the place.My heart skipped a beat very fast.Similarly with Robert and Lilia.


One of them began to approach where we were.We had already started to get cornered.Robert started making a sharp ice sword from his hand, preparing for the worst possible.


"What are you doing there?"


"Eh what?" answer someone near us.


Gosh, I think they know where we are.It feels like my heart will completely stop.


"You still ask? quick fool, we're ordered to go to Sentinel headquarters"


"What do you mean?"


"You still ask? come with me before I open your head and clear your brain"


The men began to move away from our position.Lilia let out a sigh of relief, and Robert removed his ice sword.


"Hahh, that was quite stressful" said Robert while stretching his entire body.


"I'm shaking", Lilia slapped Robert on the back.


"Sister, I think we should get out of this town" I said with a serious look.


Robert and Lilia turned their eyes to me.Wondering expressions were clearly visible on the look on their faces.I guess I really had to explain.


"Would I hurt or even kill someone?" my many.


Robert and Lilia were silent.Already expected, I must have injured someone.This power of darkness made me lose consciousness.And finally endanger the lives of others.


"Listen to Gerald, what you're doing is not wrong, you're just defending yourself" Robert replied.


"Did I hurt or even kill people before?", I said again asking.


Robert did not speak at all.He just nodded slowly assuring.Had expected, I must have endangered someone's life.


"You have also previously injured people, we must leave this city before the Sentinels catch us" I explained.


"You're right, Gerald" Lilia replied.


"We have to get out of this city, brother, we can be in prison or even sentenced to death if we stay here" I explained.


"Well, Gerald, we're leaving in the morning" Robert replied with a cold look.


I'm grateful that Robert and Lilia understood what I was explaining.It's only a matter of time until we become the people we're looking for in this town.


And it really happened.


A swarm of flying ball-like creatures spread throughout the city.Each of them looked like they were carrying a small box.


One of them stopped right in front of us.The thing brought by them looked like a screen.


"Consideration to the entire population of Heragon Kingdom.We issue a warning to immediately report to the Sentinels when they see these people" said a person on the screen.


At once the three of us were surprised.Our faces were inside the screen.I and Robert looked at each other.


"Robert Adelio, the owner of the ice power.With the demands of injuring civilians", a person continued on the news.


I squeezed both my hands.What do they mean by civilians? are civilians people trying to kill innocent young people?


"Lilia Adelio, the owner of the power of lightning.With the demands of injuring civilians".


Lilia growled to hear him.His face now looks filled with anger.Similar to Robert, which makes the atmosphere around us become very cold.


"And lastly Gerald Adelio, the owner of the power of the damned, with charges of wounding civilians, murder, treason, and assault to law enforcement officials".


My emotions felt like they were going to explode, they were trying to lie to the whole city.They were trying to make us look like enemies of the kingdom.


"With this the kingdom will reward 50,000 gold coins for anyone who can capture them alive" the insider continued.


Robert sighed.We really have to leave this city.Lilia also seemed to agree with my decision.


Slowly, the sun began to appear, accompanied by the national anthem of the Kingdom of Heragon.


Right on this day, we are the most wanted fugitives in this kingdom.And we will not allow ourselves to be caught by them.Even though we must dirty both our hands with blood.


Seriate....
