Chapter 3 — Chapter 4 — Chapter 5

With the beginning of the next day, Evil slowly opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling, questioning his own existence, guided by a feeling from the depths of his heart. He got out of bed and walked to the kitchen, where he drank a glass of orange juice. The angel went to Sasha's room, but she wasn't there. Faced with this, Evil hurried to dress and went out to look for her, finding her sitting on the sand in front of the house, playing a lyre made of water. Sasha was completely immersed in her music and Evil, more relaxed, walked towards her.

—You play very well. —He remarked, sitting down beside her and observing the musical instrument. The girl turned to look at him, somewhat surprised as she hadn't noticed his presence.

—Thank you, I love music. —Said in a pleasant tone before directing her gaze toward the sea. —By the way, I figured out why I lost my scales yesterday.

—Oh, really? Why was that? —asked, standing up and also staring at the ocean.

—It's because I was dry. Without a wet or at least humid body, my scales vanish to blend in with the human species. —She explained before looking up at Evil from below, losing concentration and causing her instrument to turn into a puddle of water.

—I understand. — Said the Angel noticing what happened with the lyre. —Is there something wrong?

—I lost my concentration a bit. I'm still not very skilled with my powers. —said the girl in a more serious tone.

—Well, I could help you. I have trained with the element of water before. —he suggested in a friendly manner, seeing her seriousness and intending to get closer to her.

—Yes, I noticed that yesterday! I would really like to know how much you can do. —said cheerfully, showing a wide smile, causing her face to blush. Evil noticed this and, standing by the sea, moved his arms to control the water, forming a flower.

—Join your hands —instructed Sasha, who did so without hesitation, feeling a comforting sensation. Then, Evil carefully placed the rose in her hands. With each passing second, Sasha blushed more, and her heartbeats quickened. Evil gently blew on the flower, freezing it. The mermaid was left fascinated by what she saw.

—Amazing!, it is... so beautiful —expressed, looking at Evil as he stood up again.

—It's for you, keep it.

—Thank you very much... I'll take good care of it. —said with a smile and a joyful expression, it was ironic how that cold object gave her such a warm feeling, this man was making her feel things she had never felt, did this mean this was an opportunity to escape from the burden of her past?

—By the way, Today, I'll go fishing again, but this time, I'll bring back enough food for several days. —Before Sasha could answer, both of them heard a sudden and violent noise coming from the ocean. They noticed a gigantic shark-like creature emerging from the waters, its skin mostly gray but with strange blue lights highlighting various parts of its body, like its dorsal fin and around its eyes. Evil gave Sasha a cold look, she understood and ran towards the house, however, she remained by the front door. The large beast opened its mouth, releasing a series of individuals in technological suits which had containers filled with water and had holographic panels on the facial area. The strange seven individuals walked on the water's surface until they were in front of Evil.

—Who are you supposed to be? —Evil asked threateningly, with an angry expression on his face.

—That's the question we should be asking you. —man at the front replied in a robotic voice, with an offensive  tone as he confronted Evil. —We come on behalf of King Dand, ruler of the Fangs kingdom.

—I see. Let me guess, those suits allow you to survive on the surface, right? —Evil pointed, smiling manically as he thought about ways to punish them. The men around him took out something like a handle from which two coral blades emerged from both ends, forming a double-edged sword.

—Lower your weapons —ordered the one who seemed to be the leader of the group. —Sir, we demand that you identify yourself. You've been seen swimming in our waters aggressively and hunting our people.

—It's called hunger. If you guys spend your time devouring seaweed, that's not my problem. —replied sarcastically and mockingly, but then returned to his serious expression. —My name is Evil, now get out of my beach.

—Listen, Mr. Evil, these are our waters, and if you do not obey our laws we'll--

—You'll what?! —Evil shouted with a deep and strident voice, tired of this nonsense, interrupting the captain while the sand under the demigod's feet spun in circles. The group's leader remained calm while the rest were already in combat positions. As this happened, Sasha was worried and frightened because she knew about the strength of the Fangs realm.

—It was a pleasure negotiating with you, Mr. Evil. —All individuals returned inside the beast and departed the same way they came. After this, Evil turned and walked toward the house. Sasha immediately hugged him, and he noticed the girl was trembling.

—What's wrong? —he asked, concerned, placing one of his hands on her head and looking into her eyes.

—You shouldn't have angered them, they are very powerful and can easily destroy us! —she said, trying to explain her concern to Evil. However, her voice broke in the process, and her eyes became teary with growing fear.

—Hey, hey, calm down. They won't do anything, we are safe. —He said, placing his hand behind her head and leaning it against his chest to comfort her. —Everything will be alright, I'll protect you. Trust me. —he said with a gentle voice, trying to make her feel more relaxed.

It seemed to work, Sasha closed her eyes and enjoyed the peace that Evil provided. Evil carried her in his arms and placed her on her bed.

—Rest a bit, you need it. I'll take care of dinner, alright?

—O-ok. —replied with a small smile. After this, Evil walked out while Sasha gradually felt more tired, finally falling asleep.

Evil rushed to the sea, dove in, and, using his powers, propelled himself at high speeds into the vast ocean and its depths. After a few minutes, he stopped and created a bubble around himself. Suddenly, a crab-like man about 4 meters tall emerged, breaking the bubble by hitting it. Then, he threw another punch at Evil with his large pincer, but Evil easily stopped it with one hand and tossed him forward, causing the monster to crash into a rock. Evil created another bubble and approached the creature, which began to mutate back into a more human-like and smaller form but retaining some crab-like features on his body.

—Why are you attacking me? Who or what are you? —Evil asked the pained individual.

—Don't you recognize me? Monster! I was there yesterday when you attacked my friends!

—Friends? What do you mean?

—Don't play dumb! —he shouted angrily at Evil, who was now confused.

—Listen, I don't come from this place, and I don't know what you're talking about. —The guy sighed and replied, still full of rage.

—I don't know where you're from, but it seems like you don't know much about life at all. Don't you know that most of the animals in the universe are Shapeshifting Animals? You killed and took away my friends!

—Oh, well that's interesting... I'm sorry. I didn't know, but I needed to eat, so... —Evil apologized, even though he wasn't really sorry.

—You can keep the apologies. This is my revenge! —At that moment, a series of enormous chains began to attach themselves to Evil, causing him to sink faster into the depths, leaving him trapped at the bottom of the ocean.

Prologue — Chapter 1 — Chapter 2

It is year 25 a.e (After the Expansion). Evil, now an adult, wakes up willing to face this day, a day of pursuit, a day of liberty. He looks at the mirror, tall, strong, handsome, he was a man, no, a creature of huge beauty. But along with his grown appearance also came an arrogant behavior. His expression was full of frustration, powerlessness, it feels like he was a totally different person, like if that young and happy boy had gone forever along with his pupils. Now his eyes were totally white, his body has lost the gates to his soul, no one could see through him ever again. 

Standing in front of the mirror this new man showed a big smile filled with sharp fangs like a shark. He was forcing himself to hide his weakness, disguising it with darkness and violence. Evil walked outside his house, wearing an elegant outfit, white shirt, black pants, tie, and long trench coat. He saw his surroundings filling his chest with cruelty as he breathed, he spread his large black wings out and pointed at the sky with his open hand. 

A dark and mysterious smoke came out his hand, this substance flew away as an embodiment of Evil's desires. The smoke seemed, somehow, alive, it was chasing every soul on that damned land. It looked like a snake moving through the air, turning the skinless souls in something else... something malicious. This new creatures, born from punishment and whim, were now our protagonist's legion, the Specters, the spirits of darkness. With this action, Evil had sentenced all those lives, now the specters, seduced by the dark, wanted to live, but unlike before, now death meant the end. 

This foolish doing cursed around 250 spirits representing a spit on the face of the Gods, the angel of black wings felt like he was beyond the Gods' will. A deep and dark feeling was being poured inside Evil's heart and suddenly his army appeared in front of him. The specters were like monsters, shadow creatures with large fangs and claws, some of them were standing on two feet and some behaved like animals. The angel wide opened his eyes ready to face his destiny. 

—Death! —yelled his father's name, filling his chest with courage and ego. A few seconds passed before the scary god appeared, once again coming out of shadows and causing a bit of fear on the angel's eyes. 

—Greetings, my son —said the huge god showing no emotion or surprise about the specters, in fact, he was dragging the blade of his scythe on the ground as an act of boredom

—It is time to talk the truth! 

—You didn't have to mess up those souls for that —answered with sarcasm and mocking his son as he kept playing with his scythe. 

—Tell me... Tell me the truth about my mother! —Evil was angry, he even lost his manic grin, his voice showed weakness dressed as rage. His father stuck his weapon into the ground like a flag and lied down calmly. 

—So that's what this is about —muttered before giving his son an answer. —Your mother was divinity like myself. She was the Goddess of harmony and peace —Suddenly, his voice, dark and cold as it was, turned a bit nostalgic  —She was beautiful as life, her hair was long as the universe itself, her eyes were the brightest stars I've ever seen. 

Those words were confusing for the son, however, he wouldn't let his weak feelings control him. So with the same attitude as before he asked. —What did you do to her? —That question caused the god to stand up and grab his weapon intimidatingly.

—She got what she deserved. Your mother was a fool, she was in the wrong place at the wrong time and for that I had to act.  —Evil was angrier than ever before, these words were giving him an awful mix of emotions, he was even moving his wings slowly in order to calm down. —I fooled and trapped her in a place with no way out, alone. I used her as I pleased before I... 

Every new word was increasing the hate within the angel, he was giving his father a despising gaze, a creepy silent filled the air for several seconds, until the god said a single word, making his son watch what happened the last day of her mother's life. 

—Remember

Suddenly, Evil found himself in the middle of space, there, he saw a woman's silhouette behind a curtain. She was giving birth to a sphere of light, while other four men were watching her. He looked around and identified what seemed to be a gigantic palace with five castles. When he turned and looked for the woman he saw his father stabbing her several times with his scythe. As the blood left her body, the angel was feeling the worst sensation of his life, he was trembling horrified by this scene, fear was binding him to the deepest pain inside his heart. He thought it couldn't be worse, until he saw her mother being beheaded by his father. 

When the illusion came to an end, Evil's mind came back to his body, he fell on his knees and threw up. Tears were coming out his empty eyes and rage ended up dominating him. —Kill him!! —screamed, giving his troops a clear order. 

The specters obeyed and ran towards the God, in response, the father created a force field repelling his enemies and leaving them unconscious. Evil, even angrier, yelled at Death and scratching the ground with his nails. From the right eye of the God emerged a red light and as he pointed at the sky with his weapon, it turned the same color as the light. Not only the sky changed, but everything else on that arid ground turned black and red. The angel stood up quickly, both surprised and terrified by this power. Drops of blood started to fall, however, not a single one touched Evil's body, it was like a nightmare, and among this chaos, the God began to float on the air.

—By my position and duty as master and lord, the virtue of being king, god and creator, within death is my life and I live for death. —recited as a chant. —I raise my voice and release my power!

—Who are you...? —asked Evil, dominated by fear and powerlessness. 

—I am the Primordial God of Death.

Chapter 4 — Chapter 5 — Chapter 6

With his arms chained and a mask covering his mouth and nose to help him breathe, Evil is escorted by four guards to the White Palace, the central hub of the Fangs kingdom and home of their king. The individuals escorting the pale man looked like Sasha when he first met her; instead of legs, they had long shark tails. However, their skin had a grayish hue, and they had gills in the neck area. As they advanced, more beings with human-like features emerged, glaring at the prisoner. Eventually they reached an area filled with enormous buildings, bright lights and several aquatic creatures swimming around. It was like a grand underwater civilization, which they easily traversed as the inhabitants feared the guards and made way for them. At this point, Evil began to understand what the young man had told him earlier about the shape-shifting creatures; many of these beings were more advanced than he had initially believed.

After passing through the city, they stood before a massive silver castle with several watchtowers, covered by a spherical force field. With their arrival an opening was created in the force field for Evil and his captors to enter. After a series of protocols, they arrived before King Dand, a Fang measuring about 3 meters with impressive musculature. He had white skin in the front and black skin in the back, a dorsal fin, dark eyes, a long hair floating over his shoulders, a mouth full of sharp teeth, a blue crown atop his head, and the characteristic gills of his species. He sat on his grand throne, which matched the castle's color, and to his left was a massive black lance with a blade resembling an axe head.

—Your majesty, we have the criminal who has been attacking our citizens —One of the guards reported, bowing before the king and referring to Evil.

—So, this is him, huh? He doesn't seem very threatening —King Dand remarked. Descending from his throne and swimming toward Evil, the Fang grabbed the angel by the hair. —He looks like a mere human to me. —A statement he was about to take back as soon as he noticed Evil's pupil-less eyes. —No, not just a human, something else...- Dand smirked, chuckled and returned to his throne. -Take him away, execute him, and...

—Is there something wrong, my lord? —A guard asked upon seeing his king in total silence while staring intently at the prisoner. The soldier did not know it, but the king was receiving a telepathic message from Evil.

—Believe me, I can be of use to you. As you can see, I'm not just any human; I have abilities. If you spare my life, you'll have a new resource for whatever you might need. —Evil transfered, the monarch seemed reflective about this offer. —Change of plans, take him to the cells and leave him there. Perhaps he'll be useful to us in the future.

They quickly took him to a remote area deep within the kingdom, a complex of high-tech prison structures ensuring that those who entered could not escape, an almost perfect system. When they reached a cell, Evil was left there and a massive metal door covered the entrance, completely trapping him between four walls. Moments later, a device removed the water from the area and took off Evil's chains and breathing mask. After a couple of stretches, he used his powers to create a thick smoke cover and teleported back home. Unfortunately, his house was in ruins; furniture, decorations, books, and various items were destroyed and worst of all, Sasha was nowhere to be found. Evil let out an scream full of wrath and, using his powers, reappeared back in his cell.

Now in the Fang Kingdom's prison, the angel enveloped his body with white light energy, with his supernatural strength, he broke the cell and used the energy to move as fast as a bullet, going towards the castle. When he arrived, he collided with the force field and subsequently separated all the water outside the castle, creating an opening to the surface. Using a water whirlwind, he rose into the skies, where he floated near some clouds, compressing them into rain clouds that began to shoot lightnings. At this point, Evil himself was struck by the energy of the lightning as he stood at the center of the clouds. In an instant, he dispelled the clouds and his body was surrounded by electricity, resembling a walking thunderstorm. His face reflected an incredible rage over Sasha's loss and his suspicion of the Fangs. He was determined to eliminate them mercilessly. He extended his arm toward the castle and released all the energy from the lightning that coursed through his body. Though he couldn't shatter the force field, he left it cracked. Evil dove at high speed and delivered a powerful kick to the weakened area, ultimately shattering the barrier. He then descended into the throne room, destroying roofs and towers along his path. The inhabitants, and even several guards, fled in terror to save their lives far from the area. Finding himself in the king's hall, he saw the king on the floor struggling to breath.

The angel restored the sea, returning the waters to its place. The pale man held his breath and grabbed Dand by the neck. —Where is she? —Interrogating with his mental powers, he searched for Sasha's location in the Fang's memories. Why here? Why them? Evil was convinced it was them, given Sasha's fear. He suspected that they had a past connection and he did not have any other leads.

—I don't know who you're talking about! —Dand replied, confused, visibly angered, and somehow powerless after witnessing such a display of power.

—Don't play dumb with me! —Evil shouted, causing the waters to move violently, knocking down walls. Then, he placed both hands on Dand's face and entered his mind, seeking information. Unfortunately, he found nothing about Sasha. Instead, he discovered the location of the second king, Fog. To buy some time, he shattered Dand's mind, leaving him unconscious.

He quickly shot out of the water and flew towards a vast land of jungles and forests. Controlling the air, he propels himself to glide silently over a palace amidst the jungle, devoid of any signs of a city or villages, unlike the Fangs realm. Stealthily, he descends and hides among the trees. From the shadows, he observes guards with green scales and tails, carrying various weapons like shields, swords, and spears. He then looks into the distance, identifying King Fog, a two meters tall individual in gray clothes and a long cape, with a large tail, white scales, and hair of the same color covering his body. He had slit pupils in his eyes and a crown that complemented his cape. Beside him are scantily clad women, one of them being Sasha. As he witnessed this, he lunges at one of the guards, biting his neck and tearing it off. The king is surprised and rises from his throne. Meanwhile, a dozen guards arrive, surrounding Evil. He slowly stood up, and black lines appear all over his body; his blood had turned this color, and his veins had swollen. This was Evil's regenerative ability. When his blood and veins returned to normal, his large black wings extended from his back. All the guards were stunned, and the king seemed nervous. Evil, with a maniacal smile, dissipates into shadows and swiftly appears behind each guard, decapitating them one by one by cutting their necks with the strength of his hands. Blood jets cover the ground, leaving no time for them to react, bones, heads and vomit of those who were seconds away from dying decorate this gross puddle. The monarch remained calm, knowing that one wrong move could lead to his death, but internally, he was terrified by the scene. With the same speed, Evil stands in front of the king. By now, all the women had seized the moment to escape, while Sasha was lying on the ground, looking at Evil with great fear for what was happening before her. Fog steps aside, allowing Evil to take Sasha. The angel walked towards the girl and delivers a surprising kick to Fog, sending him kilometers into the jungle. He crouches in front of Sasha, embracing her and covering her with his wings, saying a phrase:

—Now everything will be fine, my mermaid.

Chapter 2 — Chapter 3 — Chapter 4

They didn't stop looking at each others eyes, the salty breeze ran around them, and the waves danced calmly. After a few moments, they instinctively embraced as if their bodies were urging them to.

—Thank you very much for wanting to help me, Evil. —Sasha expressed, looking into his eyes.

—You don't have to thank me, I'm as well receiving your help —he replied, releasing her and turning with a smile to look towards the jungle. —Now we should focus on finding a place to live in.

—Do you have any ideas? —Sasha tilted her head slightly as she asked.

At that moment, Evil extended his arms forward. Suddenly, the wind's force increased, moving his hair and clothes. It also lifted the sand to waist height. Evil's shadow expanded, merging with the shadows of the trees, forming a black snake-like creature. It slithered around the trees, Evil snapped his fingers with both hands, and a sphere of darkness began forming from the dark serpent. It enclosed a large portion of land, trees, and rocks, finally, the pale man lowered his arms, and Sasha approached slowly, standing beside him.

—And now what? —Sasha said, gazing at the black sphere. At that moment, Evil applauded softly, and a flash of light illuminated the ball from within. The shadows dissipated, revealing a beautiful wooden house predominantly white, with a yellow triangular roof and stairs leading to a small balcony. —Wow! That was amazing! How did you do that? —Sasha was impressed and enthusiastic.

Evil chuckled and placed his hand on Sasha's head. —Those are my powers, little one. Now let's go inside. —They both entered the house, however, Evil's mind couldn't stop thinking about his father, his mother, losing what he loved, his solitude. He looked at Sasha warmly, pondering what he was supposed to do. Every time he loved something, he lost it, friends, family. Would he be alone again? Perhaps Sasha was just another loss, or maybe, just maybe, this strange mermaid would finally be a gain. These thoughts were torturing him from inside, and he found himself standing in the middle of bedroom, with an empty gaze.

—Hey, how did you make such a comfortable bed? —Sasha indicated, lying down and running her hands over the mattress. Sand from her feet and salt clinging to her hair adorned the scene, where the main actress, the unaware girl, was in full nudity.

Evil turned his gaze toward her, a bit surprised. —Hey, I'm not sure if you've noticed, but you're... —His comment was interrupted by Sasha's scream. She didn't understand why her body lacked the characteristic scales her species used for coverage. Immediately, she grabbed a sheet and covered herself.

Then Evil removed his coat, tie, and shirt, leaving the first two on the couch and handing the shirt to the trembling girl. Afterward, he turned, leaning against the door frame with his arms crossed. Sasha placed the sheet aside and dressed in the shirt, which covered her to her thighs. However, something buzzed in the mermaid's mind. She couldn't stop looking at Evil's muscular body; his marked back and arms evoked a sigh from her.

—Well, we need to find you some clothes —explained the young man, turning around with a serious expression. He snapped his fingers, and shadows enveloped Sasha. A few seconds later, they dissipated, leaving the girl wearing a white checkered shirt over Evil's, blue jeans, a pearl necklace, and turquoise-colored sneakers. —There are books on the living room shelf. You can read while I clean this room, then I'll go hunt something.

—Okay, but could you catch me a stingray? The venom from their tails tastes delicious. —She said with a cheerful expression, looking at Evil's face and swaying her hips side to side.

Evil started laughing a bit and then placed his hand on Sasha's head. —Is that a common meal for your kind? It's quite peculiar.

—No, actually, I just love it. My father used to criticize this habit of mine.

Sasha then sat down and took a book from the shelf, reading passionately, but the sound of the door opening caught her attention. When she looked up, she saw Evil ready to head out for fishing.

—Wait a moment, please! —She hurriedly got up and stopped him by grabbing his arm. —I have to warn you about something. There are three rulers on this planet, three kingdoms, and you must be very careful with them.

—Alright, anything else I should know? —he asked, turning around.

—Yes, the first king is named Poseidon, the ruler of the northern and southern seas. In his realm, we mermaids and tritons live. Generally, it's a peaceful place you can go if needed.

—Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.

—The second king, Dand, rules the central seas. In his domain live the Fangs, less evolved versions of my kind. They struggle to breathe outside water and have big claws and fangs. I recommend not going too far into the sea.

—Don't worry, I can take care of myself.

—The third and final king, Fog, is the dominator of all the planet's lands. His race, the Taken, are beings that can inhabit both land and water. They're like a strange species of reptilian men. I'm not very informed about their customs, but I understand there are some limits if you visit.

—Wow, you seem to be well-informed. Thank you very much. Now I'm off. —Evil headed toward the sea and began swimming before submerging.

As night fell, Sasha grew increasingly worried since her friend hadn't returned yet. To distract herself, she started rummaging through Evil's belongings. She found a large, heavy, black book, with silver ornaments, a diamond skull adorned the cover. When she tried to open it, a small electric shock burned her fingertips.

Half an hour later, Evil returned, leaving some fishes in the kitchen and heading to his room, where he found Sasha.

—What happened? —He looked at her fingers, noticing their condition. —Did you take my book?

—What? What book are you talking about?

—It's meaningless to pretend. I can trace the origin of those burns. —He approached and took her hands, healing her fingers slowly. —That book is my father's diary. I took it secretly when I was 15. He doesn't use it anymore, so he didn't notice its absence. Even today, I haven't been able to open it.

—Thank you, I'm sorry for getting into your things. Did you have any problems while you were out? —Her fingers were healed, and Evil stood up, looking at her.

—No, I had no problem, everything was quiet.

Afterward, they cooked and had dinner together. They chatted a bit and eventually went to sleep. But despite the sense of security they felt, creatures from the jungle observed them, malevolent beings searching for something from these young individuals.

Chapter 1 — Chapter 2 — Chapter 3

The angel remained stunned as he heard his father statement. "A God?" He thought, what did that mean? How should he feel? Maybe weakness? Frustration? Everything changed, he felt his body was being shattered and his bare soul was trembling. However, he saw himself and relied on his rage. "What am I? Am I a God then? Didn't he say he was going to make me a God?" A long chain of thoughts was built, one that extremely increased Evil's ego. Nevertheless, the crash between his upbringing and this new knowledge sowed the seed of madness, and it manifested with a great grin.

-Show me your worst! -yelled, practically losing his mind.

-Go away -said the God calmly, immediately after that, portals appeared dragging the specters to different planets.

The angel was just watching this "show", smiling as if he was insane, for him, his army was just a bunch of ants. But he didn't know, until he felt a strange force pulling him, that his father opened a portal behind him. Evil, desperate, tried to fly, he even stuck his legs in the ground, which didn't help him. Death stopped flying, the red light disappeared, the sky and ground recovered their color. Surrounded by smoke, the God was looking at his son. At last, Evil was absorbed by the portal, and his last thought was clear: "I will get my revenge". Despite the fact that his father took every piece of joy from him, that place was still his home, and somehow he was willing to destroy it if it was necessary.

The portal closed, Death calmly walked towards his house, and saw something uncanny which gave hope to his heart. On the ground, some blood, spilled before by Evil, was approaching to what seemed to be a tear of the angel. When those fluids touched, they started to glow, the black grass around turned white and flowers started to grow. The god looked at the sky and sighed with relief.

Meanwhile, in a different corner of the universe, all the specters were sent to four lonely and arid moons, as a punishment for these souls to exist in isolation. Our protagonist's destiny was very similar, unlike the dark souls, Evil was sent to a planet full of life. The pale man was floating in the middle of space, apparently free from his father's will, he was amazed , this was the first time he could actually see the universe. He looked at the beautiful landscape around him, the stars, galaxies and planets, the oceans and islands on the planet in front of him, it was the true art of life. But suddenly, he felt a mysterious force pushing him toward the planet, it was like a huge punch, when he was close enough, a new force appeared from the planet itself, it was pulling him with strength.

He reacted as soon as he could, however, nothing seemed to work, the angel was falling so fast that his wings turned on fire, he was able to protect the rest of his body but the pain for his wings was unbearable. A few seconds passed until Evil fell on a beach, leaving a great crater; due to his efforts he survived, however, his wings were reduced to burnt bones. Full of pain and gasping, he hid the wings inside his back and jumped out of the crater easily. Despite his state, the pale man took some time to admire this place, the beautiful and clean waters, the salty scent, the jungle behind him, everything was so full of life and colors, it was better than he imagined.

Something immediately surprised the angel, there was a woman a few meters away, she was lying down on the sand. Evil approached her, he felt curious, she was thin, with white skin and a long black hair, her breasts and private parts were protected by blue and green fish scales. The angel caressed her face, her skin was so warm and soft, he slid his hand from her face to her waist. He noticed something odd about her, her aura wasn't there, it was gone, she was lacking the fuel of life but her body was still living. He put his hands on her chest and a white light came out of his fingers; the aura behaves like water, it flows within the body, maybe her aura was somehow blocked, in that case he could cure her.

Evil stood up and carried her on his arms, he could see how the aura was slowly flowing again. The woman opened her eyes and looked at him, she was slowing recovering her consciousness, and when she did, she jumped out of his arms and hid inside the sea. The angel was glad for her but this reaction was quite... unexpected.

—Hello? Are you still there? —asked, hoping to receive an answer. A few seconds later, the girl emerged from the water, now her body had more scales, specially on her waist, and her legs seemed to be replaced by a tail.

—H-Hello, who are you...? What do you want from me? —The girl was confused, she was lost, her thoughts were trapped in a hurricane of doubts. Bit by bit, she started to recover her memory.

—My name is Evil Blackestar. You were unconscious on the sand, I thought you were dead due to the lack of aura. —The angel was being as kind as he could be, this first encounter was as strange as exciting.

—I see... Thank you very much. My name is Sasha, I am a mermaid. I am sorry for my reaction earlier. —This man saved her from a fatal fate, she was wondering how long it's been since"that" happened.

—Nice to meet you Sasha! A mermaid huh? I have always read about them but never really saw one. I am an angel demi-god. —Evil chuckled a little, he was trying to make a friend. When he was a kid he used to practice with the damned souls. —I fell from space making that hole over there.

Sasha was slowly approaching him, her tail was being replaced by two legs. He seemed interesting, although she thought he was lying about a couple of things. —Can I ask you how did you survive that fall? You say you are a demi-god, but how?

—Well, if I'm not wrong every culture should know about the creators of the universe. I am a demi-god because I am the son of two of them. If you mean how exactly did I survive, I protected my body with aura, however, it was too late for my wings.

—Oh... That must've hurt. And how old are you? I am 17 years old, you look a bit older than me. —The man's explanation sounded believable, after all, mermaids were capable of more than just protect their bodies with aura. She was seeing him with curious eyes, nevertheless, his eyes were... unsettling

—I am 25 years old. I read that mermaids live in kingdoms under the oceans, is that true? I used to live in a different..."place", with my father, but I have no intentions of coming back. —Evil's voice was casual, trying to make his uncommon life sound normal.

—You are not wrong, I used to live in a kingdom, along with other mermen and mermaids. —Judging by his words, she decided not to ask more about his past. This man for some reason had abandoned his divine father, could she trust him to fulfill her goal? They just met but did she have any other choice? —I was exiled from my home, they trapped me in a spell, but you broke it. Could you...help me?

Sasha's story surprised him, she reminded him of himself, this girl was suffering something similar to what he suffered, and now Sasha was asking him for help. —I will, I know very well how you feel. And I promise, as long as I am alive I will protect you. —said putting a hand on her shoulder. Was that promise actually real? Did he mean that or it was a product of his thrilled heart? Either way, he was willing to do it, before his vengeance he should enjoy this wonderful universe, right? It could be an excuse, but the mermaid's eyes were so beautiful that he chose not to think, but to accept this moment of his life.
