(Atlin's Pov)
The child who is with me sat in the log and watched the campfire for a while now. it's really quiet this time around, I wanted to bring this brat to capital, as fast as I can.
This child is not holding me back, and they're very calm in a situation like this, I gradually take roasted food I had in my hand and the child there didn't ask and they knew they eat without asking, what a strange kid.
As we eat and do our own thing, the child said to me. "Are you going on a walk, cause I'll just stay here if I want to?" "Sure, suit yourself kid."
After I left the child alone and as I have walked and went straight to the forest, then I stop at the hill and looked up at the stars, and it's beautiful.
Sparkling around the skies, it just felt like something in this world after all.
I sat down at the hill and I think to myself after this, then I try to make myself fall asleep. How silly, undead can't fall asleep, they are restless and ageless, I'm no longer human.
The rain started to drip and I stand up and hide beside the trees, I looked at puddles, I saw myself even if it rain, I saw my past before I became this.
The ghost that haunts me, forgotten, hatred, revenge, and despair.
The ghost is me, I couldn't control myself back then, my sanity is gone, my brothers and sisters felt pity over me and try to help.
But then, a figure came to me, the boss of the mercenaries that I'm working with, the man with threatens me and my family.
His name is Patil Gridz, he's the boss of this group, he's basically doing it for money and money gives him power. He was a muscular appearance, battle scars on his face have a normal hair grayish and a beard, he's in his 40s, now in the 60s.
He's a very cunning man and a man of his words, and a mentor of mine, teach me the ways of how the mercenaries work with their employers.
He taught me, the strategies, tricks, manipulations, and everything useful for assassinations.
He told me that he has no side, no matter how the employers pay him, he'll really backstabs anyone for the price.
He has a caring side for his mercenaries, trying to survive in a harsh reality we're living in. Before I came to this group.
I had my normal life there when everything is fine, my brothers and sisters are still there, they're having fun with their new friends and so does I, and so I thought.
I was betrayed, by the person I trusted the most, which broke my heart.
He pushed me into the land of the dead, suddenly I died. He took my stuff and ran away like never coming back to this godforsaken place, and as I raised my hands in the sky and become blinded by rage.
It feels me with anger, and as I rose the upon the grave. I have already come back, my appearance is fine, but I felt more dead.
My body is not alive but decaying, I'm not decaying and I'm already an undead, I become the Undying.
"I longer need to wear these old clothes, I need new ones."
I said in a grim voice. "The dead follows me everywhere I go, I felt more powerful. I am the Ghost, I am the vengeance resides in you."
I swore today that those who ever betray me will have a living hell. I took the gray robes and the mage clothes of the dead they once were theirs.
I made myself a mask and a skull-like appearance, I saw this man in front of me.
"Do you need guidance?" The man said in a serious tone. "Boy, you not ready with that kind of way you have now." "What do you know," I said in an annoyed voice.
"I can teach how to do the things properly in my way, not all the time magic is all you do." "And what reason do you have to help me in this?" As I gritted my mouth and starting to get angry.
"I know you're angry, but don't ever do yourself, you may be experienced in magic but not in combat." Replied with a worried look on his face. "I want you to join and I'll fulfill your quest for it, what do you say?"
"Hmm?" I think myself and starting to think, maybe he's right I must be patient for this and we still have time.
"Fine, but only if you keep your promises." "Of course." As he sighed in relief.
And that's how I met him, he's basically like a father to me. He helps me at times when I'm upset, and I wanted to repay that kindness and the day he took me in.
The Ghost is still here, and he's a part of me, the one who is insane and very violent. I tried to calm my mind and try to find peace.
My brothers and sisters never saw me and it's good, it's better they won't find me, I wonder what they're doing.
(Calden's Pov)
I looked at the sky and as I feel the wind in the air, it felt so nostalgic, it reminds me of my childhood, a stubborn child with a muscle brain, I still am healthy and strong, which doesn't mean I am very weak as always.
I just can't even save a brother that is the eldest of us, it's my fault, if I haven't been there and go with him, this wouldn't have happened.
I just want to reverse the clock.
I still remember the day before this happened. I lived a pretty decent and nice family, had gone to school due to us being the next heroes. People treated us like trash, and think we are easy to deal with, it makes me sick and so angry for what they really are to us.
I can't even think anymore, I just really can't now.
I still remember the word of my brother's friend that he died by protecting and tell them that elder brother loves. Damn, why did you have to leave?
Without you, we're nothing and we still have friends, but you gave us some guidance to be helpful in the future.

"I can't take it anymore!" I yelled in the nothingness. "What, where am I?" Calm down, I just fall asleep on the ground meaning I just sleep by the tree.
That's ok, it's all going to be gone and it's all going to be normal, it's not going to be normal stop lying to yourself.
I wish all of us siblings to be back together again. I don't want it to be gone, I just don't want to. I just don't want to... I don't even understand anymore...
