Chapter 15 - Chapter 13 Running

The cell shook like a bruised body, the ground cracked and splintered beneath Neo's feet, its stone walls split and he smelled like a rotten egg, as Neo charged into the narrow corridor like a poisoned arrow, his black cloak embroidered with golden lotus flowers fluttering behind him like the wings of a raven, his steel mask hissing short with each step, his breathing heavy, his red eyes like two lakes of blood devouring the darkness greedily, his long black hair clinging to his sweaty neck like a hungry snake. "Sword of my soul… Awaken!" A growl emerged from within him, preceding the appearance of a crystal blade emerging from the void of air like a ghostly flame, wrapping around his right arm in a blue glow that melted the falling stones of the ceiling. The smell of sulfur and iron Burning fills the nose as the spiritual sword strikes the ground, creating a whirlpool that swallows up debris and opens an escape route for him. 

He ran. He ran, he would run out before he reached the end. He penetrated the collapsing cavern with a body as graceful as an antelope, his toned muscles tightening the strings like those of a deadly bow, his cloak chasing his shadow through the air like a poisoned spider's thread. Suddenly, white light explodes in his eyes, he emerges into the valley of Adoplist where red lilies laugh under the golden sun, the scent of wild vanilla and dew wraps his breath like a soft blanket, the leaves of the giant bamboo trees whisper their glassy songs, but Neo does not slow down, his steps pierce the dirt like nails, the spiritual sword gradually disappears like a tired ghost, leaving his hand trembling like a butterfly with broken wings. 

After an hour and a half of running that has turned his lungs into embers, he appears in front of the academy's transit gate, the glassy-eyed robot guard examining his flushed face beneath the mask. "Come on…quick!" Neo tosses a bag of copper coins into the slot, feeling the coldness of the coins melting into the power system, before a blue flash shocks him, sucking his insides into the void. 

The floating city greets him with a roar like the release of shackles: the smoke of the Leviathan's iron engines mingles with the smell of fresh cinnamon rolls, the sirens of the academy's patrols mingle with the screams of street vendors. Neo crosses the streets suspended by a glass bridge, his black cloak clinging to his wet back like snake skin, his amethyst-white face shining beneath the mask like a hidden ember. The towering academy smiles at him with its emerald towers, he climbs the spiral stairs with leaden feet until he reaches room 47 on the ninth floor. 

He pushes the door open roughly, entering another world: the smell of cooking oil, the scent of flowers creeping from the corner of the room to embrace him, "Finally... you're back" a voice like breaking ice slabs, "Bella" standing there with a slender body like a knife of frozen water, her long black hair hanging like a forest night, her black eyes shining like two extinguished traps, her full chest lifting the white academy shirt completely, her round butt protruding under the black leather pants like a silent challenge, her fingers firing icy crystals that extinguish the flames of his fatigue. "Don't die in the filthy cells next time." She smiles a smile that doesn't reach her eyes, as Neo collapses on the bed, his mask falling revealing his handsome face that reminds of statues of rebellious angels, his eyelids finally meeting, but before he falls asleep, he sees Bella's reflection in the ice mirror as she touches his black hair with a mysterious tenderness... She remembers the morning when her brother told her that he was going to his cell. He didn't want to tell her, but her instincts as a big sister knew that her brother would do something, so she asked him and insisted that he tell her and promise her that he would keep him safe. Bella strokes Arnos's black hair tenderly and says, "You are all I have in this life, brother. Please don't lose you." Then she kisses her sleeping brother's forehead.

*(heat : Of course I don't feel jealous because Bella kisses Neo🥲)
