Ace Vs Deva

CH 1: Who is she?

Delta

"Deva...." Women's voices keep coming there.

He looked around the area. But the dark around him.

"Who are you? Where are you?" He asked loudly.

"Deva... It's hurting... Deva." The woman's weak voice makes him scared and worried about the woman he is just hearing at the age of six years old.

First, he thought this woman was his mother. But his grandma said his mother was dead.

This woman must be related to his past. He lost his memory at the age of six due to a big accident. He forgot everything about his past.

"Deva... Come to me, my son..." Women's voices sound weaker and more painful.

"I'm coming!! Hold it there. Today I'll find you." He shouted and ran in one direction where he found his voice getting louder.

Running five minutes he stops at one place where the spotlight is glowing into one place. As he stepped close to that spotlight. he saw there was blue fire growing around the person in the middle of the fire. He stepped a little closer and he saw that the person was a woman who was chained by her wrists. She was barely standing, her long burgundy hair was hiding her face as her face was looking down.

"Who are you? Why are you calling the name 'Deva'? Who is he?" He asked in a desperate tone.

"Deva...." The same painful voice came out of that other's mouth.

"Who... who are you? Why do you come in my dreams? And who is this Deva?" He asked the woman.

Hearing his voice, the woman looked up weakly. He didn't see her whole because her half-face was hidden by that fire's flames. He knows that fire is a magical fire. Someone traps her into that magic so she can't get free until the magic key is used.

He knows very well about magic so he understands what's happening to her. That magic sucking her energy and power killed her slowly. And seeing her situation he understands she doesn't have much time.

"Ace... It's that you? Finally, you find me! Please, get me free from this." The woman said in a weak tone.

"Ace? Who is he?" He asked a woman.

"No. You are my Deva. Deva...." She said confidently.

"I'm not Deva. You got me wrong, Aunty." Delta said.

"Deva... You are my son... Deva...." Women still murmured in her weak voice.

"No. I'm not Deva or Ace. My name is Delta." He said as he kept looking at her.

The woman's body twists as she hears what he says.

"Delta is dead! He can't be alive." Woman murmured.

"What? What did you just say?" Delta was so shocked to hear that the woman knew about Delta.

"Who are you? Why do you keep coming to my dreams? What relation do we have? Aunty, did you know about my mother too?" He kept asking many questions.

"Find Deva... Or Ace... I don't have much time." The woman said as she cried in pain.

Her body is getting black from the fires.

"Hold on, I'll get you free from this fire," Delta said in a hurry.

"No. You can't break this magic. This was created by a witch who snatched my son and locked me into this painful magic. Only Deva can get me free. Please, find him." The woman said in a desperate tone.

"Where do I find Deva or Ace? I didn't know where I found them?" Delta said in confusion.

"The... Blue... The Blue Moon... Ah!!" But before she says more she cries in pain.

"Hold..." Before he could do anything, Delta was pulled back from his dream by a sharp voice calling his name.

"Brother Delta!! Get up!" Someone shouted outside the door.

Delta gets up from his bed and tries to remember what his dream is. As his mind came to reality he stepped out of the bed and looked at his mirror. His body was blue like usual. He always wakes up with blue body skin with red eyes that were his real form. That's why he locked his bedroom door.

He looks at his body change as his mood gets lighter. He breathed a sigh of relief went close to his big wall painting on the wall and pressed a lever. With that, the picture was removed from its place.

There was a room behind the picture. This room was discovered by Delta when he was six years old. And he had kept this room a secret so that no one should touch his things which were dear to him. The room has many of his half-completed drawings. Since childhood, he keeps trying to sketch the same woman whom he sees in his dreams. But every time his dream is broken, he forgets the face of that woman. And whatever he remembered, he used to quickly draw on the paper.

Delta stepped forward and picked up the pencil and started drawing on the blank paper. After ten minutes he saw the paper. He was able to draw only the eyes well in the picture of the woman.

'Delta.' A woman's voice echoed in his mind.

'Grandmother.' Delta recognized the woman's voice.

'I am coming today. Remember that you will not go out of the house. Today is the night of the full moon.' Grandma said in a serious voice.

'Yes, I know. Is Uncle Manson coming?' Delta asked.

'Yes. Uncle Aoi is also coming with him. Grandma said.

'Is Angel coming too?' Delta asked courageously.

'How many times will you have to say that I don't even want to hear the name of that cursed girl? She was born in this world is her biggest mistake. It's Aoi who took that girl along with him. Otherwise, I would have killed him long ago.' Grandma said angrily.

'Sorry, grandma. I had forgotten. Now I will not mention her name again.' Delta said quickly.

The mind link was closed from the other side. Delta heaved a sigh of relief. He looked at the picture made on the paper. Her eyes were so beautiful. That he could not forget even if he wanted to. He looked at the picture for the last time and came out of the room taking a deep breath. He locked his secret room and went to the bathroom.

"Brother Delta, you have to come to my school today. Don't forget." Said the younger boy Ian to his older brother.

Only three people were sitting at the breakfast table. One of them was Ian. Right in front of him was his younger sister, who was fifteen years old. Ian's older brother Delta was sitting on the biggest chair at the dinner table. Ian looked at his older brother. Who was still busy having his breakfast.

"Ian brother, elder brother will not come today," Jade said calmly.

"Shut up, little bird! I didn't ask you. Don't poke your nose in my matter." Ian growled.

"Ian, don't talk to your younger sister like that," Delta said in a serious tone.

"It's her fault," Ian said, pointing to his little sister.

"Still, you should say sorry to Jade," Delta said in a calm voice.

"Ah... Fine! Sorry!" Ian says sorry to Jade with a fake smile. Jade just smiled proudly.

"And Jede is right. I can't come today." Delta shakes his head.

"But why? You promised." Ian frowned.

"Yes, and I will definitely keep my promise. But not today." Delta shakes his head calmly.

"You are avoiding me like every time. You never come out of this cold palace. Always live like a prisoner serving a sentence. Don't you go out and see real words? That caller has kept you a slave. There are lots of things you never see. I want you to meet…." Ian talks desperately.

Deva's hands stop him in the middle, and he looks up at Ian. Ian looked angry and sad at the same time.

"No more words," Delta said.

“Grandma is coming here today. And Dad is also coming with her. That’s why brother is not coming, duffer. You know brother is forbidden to go out in daylight. Did you forget what happened last time when Father and Grandma found Brother nowhere?” Jade scolds him.

“I don’t care! Brother, promise me! But as usual, he broke it too. I'm Done." Ian gets out of his chair and grabs his bag before walking out.

"Brother De, don't take him seriously. When his anger calms down, he will be Okay." Jade tries to cheer Delta, who looks blank face all the time.

Jade knows her elder brother never shows his emotions to others. No one sees him with any kind of expression. But Jade feels Delta is sad knowing that Ian gets disappointed by him.

"Call me if he does stupid things or does harm to himself," Delta said and walked inside his study room.

Jade looks at both sides where her two brothers walk away, and she sighs helplessly.

"I have to keep Ian calm," Jade murmured and ran behind Ian.
