“People think that a liar gains a victory over his victim. What I’ve learned is that a lie is an act of self-abdication, because one surrenders one’s reality to the person to whom one lies, making that person one’s master, condemning oneself from then on to faking the sort of reality that person’s view requires to be faked…The man who lies to the world, is the world’s slave from then on…There are no white lies, there is only the blackest of destruction, and a white lie is the blackest of all.”
― Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged
Earth is not the only livable planet in the galaxy. Hidden was a world called Kankyo, taken over by things that are not human. Vampires, Angels, Demons, Lycans, etc. They have created their own version of planet earth, time to time do they decide to explore the earth. Rarely do they stay for the reason of 'love'. Their continents include Ruhen, Paradeiso, Dorchadas, Darnvia, Eukasia, Almanzu, and Kenguru. But this story will focus on the continent of Dorchadas.
Dorchadas is the home for Dragons. Their life is a fantasy utopia version of medieval times. With a King and a Queen, but inside that castle is not Utopia. The first one had died, soon to be replaced by the King of Darnvia many years later, a Demon. No one really suffered much from that....except for the son. That son is Sohrab, a Prince with inheritance to the castle and also the ruling of the country. But according to Dragon law, he has to be at least 100 years old before ruling....and he is only 65 (which is barely a teenager for Dragons). So during that wait, he had decided to do some schooling...though no one know what he does.
The first father Sohrab had looked up to, the father even encouraged him and brought him a book that would push him past the ranks for his dream. But the second Father (named Nando Veridoro) seemed to see it as an excuse from 'duties'. That began the cycle of abuses for the Prince.
It lasted for a year, with insult to insult...it was considered mental and emotional abuse. With his Mom not even aware of what is happening, Sohrab decided that enough was enough. He knew it was best to get out of the situation so with his big wings, he decided to run away to Planet Earth....not looking back.
The girl in this story is...well...not average. Her mother is a big tough cop, as she had to live in dangerous situations. But their relationship is good, nothing wrong with it. Her Father though is the Mayor so she does have some sort of expectation to live up to, making sure she did not get any trouble of some sorts. The day that would change everything was her 16th birthday....a sort of tradition for girls to enjoy that sort. So to enjoy herself, she decided to go shopping at the mall with friends..just wanting to relax after a hard day's work at school. But when she arrived at the mall, she was met by a purplish fog that made everyone faint except for her, and a monster that planned on killing her for her 'special blood'.
About to meet Death in the eye, she was to be saved by a man that seem to be around her age who dealt with him no problem. Only problem is the guy said that this was not the last monster she will witness. And in order to be safe, she has to allow him to guard her....a contract of some sorts if they shake hands and she proposes him to be her guardian.
The girl has no idea that Sohrab however, is using her as an excuse to stay away from home. As he is aware that the 'special' girl was suppose to meet her 'true' guardian soon. So a white lie would not hurt right? He is protecting her after-all, even attending the same school as her to make sure no one (And the Seven Deadly Sins Gang) goes near her. But only time would tell if the White Lie will succumb him and the girl down the black hole....and if their relationship is the only way to avoid it.
