When he wakes up
A Mysterious Death
Detective Vanilla Lawson packed her plain police cruiser outside the Bennett home, its tyres crunching on the rock carport. The rambling chateau was washed in moonlight, at this point murkiness stuck to its mysteries. She ventured out, her ragged cowhide boots making an unpretentious crash on the ground. A whirlwind stirred the trees, and a shudder ran down her spine.
Dr. Richard Bennett, an eminent researcher, lay unmoving on the front room floor, washed in the ghostly gleam of a close by light. His inert eyes gazed into obscurity. The scene seemed heartbreaking however clear - a straightforward mishap. Be that as it may, Vanilla's stomach told her in any case.
"Anything uncommon, Official Johnson?" she asked her formally dressed accomplice, who was cautiously looking at the room.
Johnson, a youthful and enthusiastic cop, scratched his head. "Not actually, Detective. It appears as though he stumbled and fell. There's a wrecked container on the floor, and he has a cut on his brow."
Vanilla's eyes waited on Dr. Bennett's inert body. She had seen an excessive number of crime locations to acknowledge the undeniable face esteem. "Require the coroner, and how about we get legal sciences here as quickly as possible."
As Johnson transferred the orders, Vanilla's look meandered to a close by shelf. It was loaded up with logical diaries and dusty books. Something about this spot felt off.
Similarly, as she was going to research further, the entryway opened up, and a troubled young lady burst into the room. Lucy Bennett, the researcher's girl, wheezed as she took in the scene.
"Father!"Lucy raced to her dad's side, destroying her face. She supported his head, unmindful of the blood staining her hands.
Vanilla moved toward Lucy tenderly. "I'm Detective Vanilla Lawson. I really want you to move back from your dad, please."
Lucy looked into, her eyes loaded up with agony. "What was the deal? Is he... is it true that he is OK?"
Vanilla delayed the slightest bit, her sympathy fighting with her Detective's impulses. "Please accept my apologies, Lucy, yet it seems your dad has died. We're researching the conditions."
The young lady's face wound in dismay, yet she hesitantly got away from her dad's dormant body.
As Lucy sat on the lounge chair, Vanilla saw a glint of something on the edge of the shelf. She carefully went after it — a small sound recorder taken cover behind a few dusty books. It aroused her curiosity, however, she slipped it into her pocket, keeping it stowed away from Lucy's view until further notice.
The coroner showed up, and the investigation proceeded. Vanilla couldn't shake the inclination that this passing was no mishap, yet she had no proof to help her hunch — yet.
With a last look at Lucy, who sat overpowered with misery, Vanilla realized that this case would be not even close to clear. She would need to dive profound into the insider facts concealed inside the Bennett manor and find reality before it asserted more lives.
What's more, as she drove away from the scene, the minuscule sound recorder in her pocket appeared to the murmur of stowed-away secrets, alluding to the tangled trap of misdirection and peril that lay ahead.

The Great One Epilogue (2)
"Are you sure we are good to go now, leaving your majesty alone? HEY! SAY SOMETHING!" I grab at her shoulders which showed me her crying face. I got startled and don't know what to do, I saw her wipe her tears and made a protective barrier made out of mist.My brows furrowed and I couldn't understand why. We are staying a float in the sky. We couldn't land in the ground burning in fire."Mnnng.." I heard Fall gaining his consciousness and grabbing his head. Ciel and Alena were holding one another, he seems like feeding him with essence to keep her from losing control of not having being fed. While Thanato was keeping herself together. I couldn't understand what is wrong with her.A blinding light made us sleepy and then everything went blank. I heard the ringing sound of someone calling my name and I feel like it was something familiar.---"Nestor! Nestor!" Som

The Great One Epilogue
I thought that death is something painful that I would go through excruciating pain and my bones felt like being pound into dust but true to what the others said that what it would feel like.I lifted my body with eyes still shut close. It felt peaceful. Is this what it feels like being in heaven? Does Skyscraper have this Heaven and Hell? I'm sure Hades' palace is too grand to be called the dump of evil souls. But anyway, why does it feels so gentle and warm in here? I opened my eyes since I think it was safe not to pretend that I was sleeping.My limbs forgot to move. It was a utopia before the pollution from human waste for upgrading their way of living. Greeneries are abundant and the water from the stream I am near were as clear as crystal blue that reflects the bright sky. Animals from big to small were coexisting with one another. A predator taking care of a prey is a rare sight to see! I am mesmerized from what I am seein

The Great One Hold my hand I'm sleepy (2)
The space felt peaceful but there is a lot of scattered bodies drifting with the dust. They had been piled one after another and almost making a wall to protect Skyscraper. I went inside the mana ball that is pushing the carcasses away and I could see Arao happily humming while still shutting his eyes close. I tap his shoulders. He looks frail pitiful in his child's form. Maybe that's why Mother is always beside him. He looks like a child that needed attention."Brother Sky! Are we done? Can I open my eyes now?" I was pulled out of my thoughts when he suddenly talks. I smiled and patted his head."You can open it up now Ra. Don't be surprise to where we are alright?" I informed him since this is rather a new place for him to see. He move his head up and down before putting down his hands and jumped towards me. I chuckled and then I patted his head again."Are you ready for the journey that we will take?" I
