Chapter 51 - Chapter 51: Black Wings

Deep in the Underworld, Shiki walks through a destroyed village. It was pure silence; Shiki stood in front of a building in ruins. She stood in the middle of the building as she let out a gasp of air, saying, "It's been a long time, but I am finally home." Shiki removed her jacket and the bandages around her chest; cold air brushed across Shiki's chest, revealing a massive scar that covered her whole chest. While looking at the floor, Shiki noticed a black handle in the ground. She pulled the handle; it opened a hatch that had a massive amount of clothes inside. She grabbed a purple shirt and black jacket that fit perfectly. After putting on a new pair of clothes, a dark blue and purple spirit circled around her. The spirits spoke in a distorted voice, "Where to now, Shiki?" END appeared in her hand. With a few swings, Shiki was able to cut through the dimensional rift connecting the realms together. Before she stepped into the rift, black magic started building up through her fingers before she released the spell called "fengária", destroying every last bit of the village before saying, "I will create a new home for us." While travelling through the rift, the spirits started speaking again: "What is our goal, Shiki? You have the soul of a bloodfallen; do you plan on reviving them? Shiki laughed in response before responding, "Of course I plan on reviving them, but there are some tools I need before I bring her back." The rift opened as the moonlight shone on Shiki; she arrived in the nether realm. Shiki felt the mana in the atmosphere to be rich and pure; she took a deep breath before slamming her hand on the ground. Black veins started going to the ground as she used the spell "ríza". While in deep thought, Shiki used her spell to locate something. Shiki said, "Before I revive Melty, I need two things. First I must make a new body for the soul to be in, which can only be done at the Nether Forge. Second, I must find someone with a close link to the abyss." As the spirits flew in front, saying, "We understand. Did you locate the forge?" Shiki stood up and shouted out the names "Thanatos" and "Styx"; two wings appeared on Shiki's back, one pure black and the other pure. End flew beside her as Shiki set off into the night. Shiki grabbed and said, "This realm is peaceful; it's a shame that it will become a war zone."
