The Concealed Shadow Released

Akaharu and Dalvin stands in a forest with spirrigan, lost and confused.

"Where the heck are we?" asked Akaharu.

"Don't ask me! I have no idea either!" said Dalvin, panicking. "I didn't even realise that your uncle was Oberon!"

Akaharu then thought of Oberon and Titania. He still felt shock from their unexpected appearance and identity. It was like his heart was going to explode.

"Oberon…Who is he?" asked Akaharu. Dalvin and Spirrigan sighed.

"Oberon is the King of fairies." Said Spirrigan.

"Then what of Aunty Tia?" Akaharu asked Spirrigan.

"Do not call her majesty such name, even if it was to cover her identity, it's useless to call her that name now you know who she is." Said Spirrigan in an annoyed tone.

"So she's queen I pressume…" Akaharu asked. Spirrigan gave him a cold shoulder, Akaharu feels like Spirrigan doesn't like him.

"Then what about you?" asked Akaharu.

"I am Spirrigan." He replyed. Dalvin then quietly chuckled.

"Save your laughter imposter. Just because you look like one of us doesn't mean you are." Said Spirrigan.

"Whatever, I don't care if I am a fairy or not. Not that I care that there's even ugly fairies…" said Dalvin smirking at Spirrigan.

"I don't have time to play with your games imposter. I have an order to follow giving by her majesty herself, whether I like it or not…" Said Spirrigan as he started walking in the forest.

"Now come, Hybrid. I shall lead you out." Said Spirrigan.

Akaharu became confused till there was dead silence, he then realised Spirrigan was talking to him.

"Me?" asked Akaharu. "I'm a hybrid? What does that mean?"

"It means you are a breed created from two complete different species." Spirrigan explained. Akaharu then thought of the thorns that came from his shadow from before.

"Does it have to do with the thorns that came from my shadow?" asked Akaharu as he felt desperate to get an answer.

"You know something about me! All of you! What is it that I don't know?!" then the area of the forest suddenly rippled.

"Whoa! What the heck was that?!" asked Dalvin.

"What was that Spirrigan?!" asked Akaharu. Spirrigan Then raised his staff to shield Akaharu.

"Stay back!" he said.

There was nothing but trees rustling from the strong wind.

"What happened to her majesty?" Spirrigan thought. He knows how Titainia's magic works but he had never seen it rippled so aggressively before.

Akaharu and Dalvin stood quietly, they feel like something was coming but don't know what.

Then out of the blue something grabbed Akaharu from behind.

"GAH!"

Spirrigan and Dalvin were alarmed by Akaharu's scream.

The man in black and green cloaks locked Akaharu's neck with his arms. This gaze glared at Dalvin and spirrigan.

"You! What have you done to her majesty and his Highness?!" Spirrigan shouted.

"Oh fear not ugly fairy, I managed to… escape them. It wasn't hard to infiltrate 'your majesty's' magic." Said the magic collector. "I don't have time to fight royals, all I want is the Hybrid."

"What do you want from me?!" Akaharu shouted as he tried to escape from him but he was to strong.

"Don't you get it? You're a Sleigh Beggy and a Pilum Murialis! Who to thought two can be one in the same?! I saw it myself! Your shadow, IS real!" Then he leaded his head closer to Akaharu.

"You're the perfect creation!" He hauntedly spoke to Akaharu.

Akaharu shivered. He didn't like the way the magic collector talked to him. He felt like a shiver crawled up on his spine. His hand was sweating, he was trembling. He never felt immobilised before. He wanted to run away, somewhere afar from him. He wanted to be swept away from the strong wind.

"This boy…IS MINE!" The magic collector declared. Akaharu couldn't take it anymore.

"GAHHH! GET OUUUUTTTT!" then shadowy thorns appeared from his shadow again as it this time protected Akaharu. The thorns swirled like a tornado as it flung the magic collector away.

"Yes! Such power! He is the one!" said the magic collector to himself before disappearing in a puff of smoke.

The thorns continued to swirl around Akaharu.

"AKAHARU! STOP!" Dalvin shouted. Spirrigan looked at Akaharu as he began to worry. It was clear that Akaharu cannot control the thorns. Akaharu crouched down with his hand covering his ears. But the magic collector's whispers echoed in his mind.

"Akaharu! Snap out of it!" said Dalvin as he charged into the thorns. He kept getting hurt but still charged right in.

"fool! You're only going to get yourself hurt!" said Spirrigan.

"I don't care! Akaharu…He…" Dalvin was about to burst into tears.

"He made me his friend, something you stupid fairies don't understand! He's my friend and I'm not going to lose him! " said Dalvin as he kept charging in.

Then when Dalvin charged in once more. The thorns stopped in motion as Dalvin hit Akaharu on the head.

"OW! Oh it stopped?" Dalvin became confused. He looked at Akaharu who was still crouching down with his hands covering his ears.

Then the thorns formed into a sphere shape that encased Akaharu and Dalvin inside. The thorns started to become restless as it then disappeared into the shadows.

"He disappeared!" Spirrgan became shocked.

"..aru…Haru…HARU!" a voice called

Akaharu opened his eyes to find himself in a foggy and unpleasant looking forest. Then he sees Dalvin on his knees.

"Dalvin?" Akaharu spoke in confusion.

"HARU! THHHHAAAANKKK GOODNESS YOU'RE ALIVE! I was so worried! WAAAAAAA! Don't scare me like that again!" Said Dalvin as he hugged and cried on Akaharu.

"What happened?" asked Akaharu.

"Dunno, we just suddenly came here…" said Dalvin. "But I gotta be honest, I don't really like the look of this place."

"You and me both…" said Akaharu as they both look around the dead looking forest as if no soul has ever stepped foot in here.

"C'mon, we got to get out of here…" said Akaharu as he got Dalvin in his hood. Akaharu then started walking.

"Hey Haru, do you think we're in one of those things you humans call it 'horror movies'?" asked Dalvin.

"No we're not! Besides they were movies. Nothing is real when it comes to movies, well not all of them…" said Akaharu.

Akaharu looked around the dead forest. It was all murky and foggy, he could barely see any colours.

"I wonder what happened here…" said Akaharu. Then something caught his eye.

"Hey what's that?" Akaharu then walked up to something that was glimmering in the fog. As he got closer, he then saw a black stone. Akaharu then picked it up as he realised it had strings attached to it.

"Is this a necklace?" asked Akaharu having a closer look at it.

"A pretty weird one if you ask me…" said Dalvin. "I mean look how the strings are placed! Looks like it formed like a tie. You know like what those silly humans wear to look fancy."

Akaharu looked at the black stone closely, then looked at the strings.

"I feel like I've seen this before…" said Akaharu. "I saw something like this in a picture book, it was something like…made in the US… around….the mid-20th century?"

The grass started to rustle as the wind became strong again.

"Are you sure?" asked Dalvin "What did Oberon even make you read?"

"It was aunty Tia! I mean Titania! She made me read history. But I did see this in one of the book. But what worries me is this." Said Akaharu.

"SO WHAT ABOUT IT?! THERE'S NOTHING WE CAN LEARN ABOUT THIS PRETTY SHINY BLACK STONE!" said Dalvin.

"No that's not the point! The thing is it still looks clean and new, if it was left here a long time ago wouldn't it be more old and broken or disgusting?" asked Akaharu.

Dalvin was catching on what Akaharu meant. "Wait, you don't mean…"

But then a giant shadow covered the both of them as they exchanged glances.

"We're not alone, are we?" said Dalvin shivered.

"I don't think we are…" said Akaharu as he gulped.

They slowly turned their heads as they looked behind. To their surprise, some kind of life form shadow started forming in front of them.

"What the heck is that?!" asked Dalvin

Then the giant shadow slowly formed into a human form. Akaharu watched as the shadow formed legs and arms till it formed its head. Akaharu was lost for word as what was standing right in front of him was a humanoid Shadow beast with a Wolf skull and goat horns. Its eyes then shimmered as if the crimson light was fixated on Akaharu's green eyes.

"Could…it really…?" the shadow beast spoke as it got closer to Akaharu. Its hand reached out to Akaharu.

"Who are you, what do you want!?" said Akaharu as he backed away, swatting the beast hand away from him.

Akaharu then saw the beast's eyes glimmered as it looked if it got brighter. Then the beast sighed that you could even see its breath.

"I…I think you made it mad…" said Dalvin.

"Well…I think….WE SHOULD RUN!" said Akaharu as he grabbed Dalvin, running for his life. The shadow beast then started crawling behind him as it was slowly catching up.

"I think we are in a horror movie!" Akaharu shouted. He then tripped over something as he tumbled on to the ground.

"Akaharu!" Dalvin shouted.

The shadow beast was slowly coming towards Akaharu. Akaharu looked at its eyes, to his surprise, he felt like he wasn't scared of him, but he felt like he couldn't move.

Akaharu and the Beast stared at each other for a long time. Then the beast started to look like it was becoming sluggish or weakened. Akaharu couldn't even tell what's going on anymore.

"…Why….Why…do I…always see you…" the beast spoke.

"What?" Akaharu became even more confused. "What do you mean?"

"I think that's enough of playing chase…" said a voice. A little golden tornado appeared between the two of them.

"I know that voice!" said Akaharu.

Then appeared Titania, Oberon and Spirrigan.

"Titania! Oberon! Spirrigan!" said Akaharu.

"That coward decided to run away, well the next time I'll make sure that he doesn't…" said Titania looking annoyed.

"Now I think it's time to do some explaining between a Father and Son" Said Titania

"HUH?" Akaharu and the shadow beast looked confused.

"You said…Father…and Son?" Akaharu starts piecing everything together as he slowly realised what Titania meant.

"Wait so I am…" Said Akaharu pointing at himself.

"The son" said Oberon finishing his sentence with a smile.

"…and That is…" Akaharu slowly pointed his finger at the shadow beast.

"Your father." Said Titania.

If you noticed the reveal was quicker than expected. I mean all stories have things like 'the main character finds his father in maybe in the next 100 chapters' thing
To be honest I find that a little boring now that is a thing to all stories. I mean not shake things a little?

then again I might be making the story better or worse. Who know

I mean- To be continued!
