Chapter 4 - I WANT CHAOS! (1/2)

When a flower doesn't bloom, you fix the environment in which it grows, not the flower.

****************

The realm of the supernatural creatures knew him as Chaos, that was the name that was given to him, the name that he lived upto, although nobody knew how long he had been walking in this realm.

He was an ancient creature, an old damned soul, who roamed around this realm and created chaos in his wake.

Most of the creatures feared him and didn't want to have anything to do with him, letting him do his own business, which was beyond their understanding.

Nobody knew what his purpose or what he wanted, but they avoided him all the same, as if he would suck their soul out.

However, the little girl with hazel eyes, white hair, and was wearing his black sweater, which looked much bigger than her skin and bony body, stared at him and wanted him to take her in.

”Take me with you,” she said.

Her voice was hoarse while she was covered in dirt, her small feet stained with blood from the people that he ordered to be killed, but she fearlessly looked at him in the eyes, making him wonder, what kind of disaster that she had seen to be able to face him like this.

”Take me with you,” she repeated her words when she didn't get any response from the man in front of her.

”No, go away,” Knox said. ”You should be grateful that I didn't kill you.”

Yet, she ignored him. She just looked at Chaos expectantly.

”Your name?” Chaos asked.

But, instead of answering the question, the girl asked him back. ”What is your name?” She cleared her throat, so her voice wouldn't sound so raspy.

All the men around the room were taken aback by the girl's boldness. Who was this girl? How could she talk back to him like that?

However, she was completely unaware of those strange gazes she received.

While Knox furrowed his brows deeply, upon hearing that question, Chaos just stared at her without so much as a change in his expression.

”Chaos.”

”That's not your name,” she said stubbornly. Father said to not talk to strangers or give them her name, but her father was not here and she was all alone, and also, she wanted to leave with this man.

Chaos gave the girl one last glance before he turned around and walked away from there.

Seeing that, she immediately rushed to him and walked beside him, while saying, ”Blue. You can call me blue.”

Chaos glanced at her, but didn't say anything, yet he let her walk beside him.

This was something that had never happened before. All the men there exchanged glances with one another and when one man came to Knox to ask about it, he just raised his hand, as a sign to let her be.
