The man is standing at a 6 meters distance.
He was giving a very dark aura around him.
Cliffdon becomes stiff he is not moving.
"What is going on I can't move." In a panic voice he says.
Is this because of this creepy man, I need to get out of here.
The man takes out a pocket watch from his waist coat and starts looking at it. After which he keeps it back again.
With the same creepy smile he says,
"what's wrong?"
"Is something haunting you?"
Cliffdon is sweating. He can't move, the only thing he can to is stand still.
The man again takes out something from his pocket. It was a locket which had an art of an nacked woman wearing a thick scarf on her body.
"Do you know what is it?" The man asks.
He is still giving the creepy smile looking at him.
The man now taps his head and says,
"Ofcourse you won't know."
"Because you are not from this world aren't you."
Cliffdon is in a complete shock as he never thought that somebody will know that he is not from this world.
He thinks, (I thought that nobody knew
(about this but this man..
Wait, is he..
The man comes closer to Cliffdon and then takes out a very sharp knife from his waist coat. He touches the edge of the knife with his right hand index finger and then suddenly strikes at Cliffdon.
As the knife is about to hit him, it stops. The man looks satisfied and then keeps his knife inside.
He looks up and says, "Finally..."
"My Lord, I have found the spirit of darkness"
Cliffdon thinks, What is he talking about? Is he planning to kill me?
Sh*t I need to run. But I can't move. The man suddenly starts to coming closer to him.
He was giving creepy smirks and was planning to do something.
Cliffdon knows that he was not going to do something good him. Cliffdon is scared and worried.
Suddenly, something strange starts happening on Cliffdons body. Black smoke were starting to form around his legs and hands.
His body was starting to react. Suddenly he falls on the ground, he was now able to move.
The man looks stunned.
"What did just happen?" Cliffdon says while he massages his bud.
"Wait, now is my chance." Cliffdon stands up and starts running.
As he runs he finds something unusual.
"Wait something is wrong?"
"WHY AM I MOVING ON MY OWN!!"
Cliffdon was running towards the open window with full energy and then..
he jumps.
"Ahhhhhhh....." With terror he screams.
Cliffdon was falling from a building which was about 613 meters tall.
He was screaming as he falls. He is thinking, am I going to die, is this the end.
The force is pulling him hard and the wind is hitting him.
His hat flies away and his coat floats. He screams hard and his eyes tear up. All he can do is scream. Suddenly he starts felling dizzy and he starts losing his consciousness. His eyes starts closing up and he stops screaming.
As he closes his eyes the only thing he saw was the same black smoke forming from his body.
And as he is about to hit the ground
he suddenly faints.
_________________________
Cliffdon opens his eyes.
"Uh..where am I?" He could hear a voice.
It was becoming louder and louder.
"Hey! hey! I am taking to you." A man angrily says.
Cliffdon wakes up as the man shouts at his ears.
"Stop sleeping here, you are chasing my coustomers away."
Cliffdon shock. "What, how did I came here?"
The man holding his broom says,
"What to you mean how did I came here, you have been sleeping here for more than three hours now."
Cliffdon dumbfounded looks at the surrounding, he was near a family restaurant in the middle of the city.
With curiosity on his mind he asks, "what colony is it?"
The man replied. "Wait are you dumb, this place is camdon." Cliffdon is completely shock to hear it as camdon is a ward that is located in the center of the capital.
The man with a rude posture says,
"Now I would request you to get out of here, please."
Cliffdon suprised stands up and says.
"I am very sorry I will leave." And then Cliffdon walks away.
How did I got here, I was falling from a tall building so how comes and most importantly, who was that creepy guy that tried to kill me.
Suddenly, After walking a few steps he hears a noice. It was loud scary noice coming from his stomach,Which means he was hungry. Cliffdon checks his time, it was 06:05 in the evening. The sun was starting to go down and people were starting to decrease.
After a long walk Cliffdon finally reaches his home safe and sound. He is scared to open the door as anything could happen after the scary encounter today.
His hands are shacking. He could not open the door. He thinks for a moment and then takes a deep breath. With faith on himself he slowly opens the door.
The first thing he says after opening the door is I am home. He is shocked as all the lights were open. Something is on the table, it's food.
"Brother, where did you went today?" A teenager girl comes out. It's sara, Cliffdons younger sister.
"Um...Sara?" Cliffdon asks.
"Why are you looking at me as if you are seeing me for the first time." Basically annoyed.
"Do you know what time is it." Says as she arranges the food on the table.
"Oh, I am sorry I just went for a little walk." As cliffdon scratches his head with his right hand.
Sara looks confused as she looks at Cliffdon and then she asks, "Why aren't you wearing your hat?"
"You usually never take it off." She asks.
"Ah..I...aa..ctually lost..it while coming home. That's all."
"Ok whatever let's have dinner before it gets cold." She replies.
Cliffdon is amazed to see such a beautiful girl being his sister. She has long hair and has a short but sharp nose. Her eyes are big and her eyebrows are thick. Her voice is gentle and sweet and she is pretty tall for her age as she is only 16 years of age.
Sara says, "You don't want to eat brother?"
"Oh! I will eat." Cliffdon sits on the table and starts thinking should I eat it.
Cliffdon is curious. The food looks nice but he is too nervous to eat it.
"Why aren't you eating?" She questioned.
"Uh..yes! yes! I'll eat." Cliffdon takes the spoon and then takes a bite.
As soon as the food reaches his tounge he is overwhelmed with joy. His eyes are wide open and he keeps on eating.
The food tastes like heaven. Sara looks at him and smiles. Cliffdon looks at her she was smiling. With curiosity he asks,
"What's wrong?"
Sara replies "You look like you haven't eaten anything since morning."
Cliffdon embarassed. "Sorry I was too hungry."
She replies "It's ok eat as much as you want."
Such a good sister she is, Cliffdon thinks. and the original cliffdon was going to leave her alone.
"So..Sara." Cliffdon asks.
"..yes?" She replies.
"What are you planning to study after schooling." Cliffdon asks.
Sara suddenly becomes quite and her mood changes. She keeps her spoon on the plate and then says "I...want to study Law."
"Law?" Cliffdon replyes.
"Why Law?" He asks.
Sara tells that despite the poor condition of their family, she wants to follow her father's path. She said both of their parents wanted them to do something good in life.
After the murder of their parents the killer was released because of the poor judgement of the court, so she wants to change everything so that people won't face difficulty.
After hearing everything, Cliffdon goes into a deep thought that this world has no difference compared to his previous one. Sara even after losing what she loves she never gave up and she is keeping on going.
Whereas Cliffdon his own brother who had completely given up, plus he decided to take his own life by cutting himself.
There is a huge difference between them, and if he thinks nicely, which type of person is Arisawa. Even though he has some memories of him, but the fact those not change that he is not more Hiroshi Arisawa, he is now Cliffdon Williams.
Cliffdon goes to his room after dinner. He takes his chair puts it near the open window and then sits.
Wind blows by, now the city which was once lively were starting to close up. Less people are walking and there is no sign of horses around.
This world is darker than I thought. After the crazy encounter this afternoon I am pretty sure that there are many secrets hiding. No matter what I need to survive in this world.
But, that is not the only problem. I need to find out the secret behind the my past life and my present.
Not as Hiroshi Arisawa but as Cliffdon
Williams.
