  …It started near a well…
                                 
  “Young Mistress… what’s a soulmate?”

   

   

   

  
    They say rejection hurts…
  

   

   

   

  “What? Xiao Jiu, you don’t know?!”

   

   

   

  
    The worst kind of pain someone could ever feel…
  

   

   

   

  “…Well, they are like the bestest of friends but more!”

   

   

   

  
    It’s akin to having something inside you break…
  

   

   

   

  “……More?”

   

   

   

  
    …Or worse…
  

   

   

   

  “Yeah! They are the one person who knows you the best of all! And will accept you, believe in you, and love you until the end of the world!”

   

   

   

  
    They say being rejected by your soulmate is the worst kind of pain that can exist…
  

   

   

   

  “They are the ones who will stand beside you when everyone else abandons you, and when the world stands against you, and when in need they will come and save you like how those immortal Cultivators do!”

   

   

   

  
    They say being rejected by your soulmate is akin to having your heart ripped out…
  
 
   

   

  “They are the ones who will love you forever and ever, and nothing in the world can change that!”

   

   

   

  
    …Or having a part of your soul destroyed…
  

   

   

   

  “…Young Mistress… how… how can… how can s-someone find their soulmate?”

   

   

   

  
    And when that happens…
  

   

   

   

  “Well, that’s easy! By following the Red String of course!”

   

   

   

  
    When you get rejected by your soulmate…
  

   

   

   

  “They say that everyone has a Red String that will guide them to their soulmates, no matter where they go, or travel, the Red String will bring two soulmates together, no matter what…”

   

   

   

  
    When you lose part of your soul…
  

   

   

   

  “…And when the time is right, the Red String will reveal itself to the soulmates so they will complete their bond!”

   

   

   

  
    When you become a shell of yourself…
  

   

   

   

  “And then everyone will live their happy ever after! Isn’t that great Xiao Jiu?!”

   

   

   

  
    …That’s when death seems more welcoming than life…
  
   
  “Do… do I h-have a s-soulmate, Young Mistress?”

   

   

   

  
    But for those who survive…
  

   

   

   

  “Xiao Jiu everyone has a soulmate in the world!”

   

   

   

  
    For those who decided to live their life with half of their soul…
  

   

   

   

  “You, me, A-Luo, and even those pretty birds that always fly high in the sky!”

   

   

   

  
    For those who decided to brave the world, even when facing rejection…
  

   

   

   

  “Because soulmates are our other half that complete us!”

   

   

   

  
    It’s said…
  

   

   

   

  “…Oh…”

   

   

   

  
    That they are doomed to search the earth for that someone… or something… to complete them…
  

   

   

   

  “I see… thank you, Young Mistress…”

   

   

   

  
    ……………They say rejection hurts……
  
             It started near a well… an easy mission to dissipate Wraiths in one of the surrounding villages at the base of Cang Qiong Sect, that should have been done and over in a Shichen or two at best. At that time, Shen Jiu had enough confidence in himself, knowing that the strategy he cooked up would have given the wanted result, not only solving the problem in a recording time but also preventing any causalities from happening.Shen Jiu should have known, that thinking positively for once in many months would have come to bite him in the ass, especially after discovering that he was paired with Shang Qinghua (A useless, nobody that Shen Jiu wondered how he even managed to become a succeeding disciple) and Liu Qingge (The annoying crush that Shen Jiu doesn’t know if he loved or hated most of the time) would be nothing but a recipe for a disaster.It started as normal as it can be; Liu Qingge rushed into the fray and ignored Shen Jiu’s orders, even when he was appointed as the leader of this hunt by the combined agreement of their respected Shizuns, while Shang Qinghua hiding somewhere behind the bushes, refusing to help when both Shen Jiu and Liu Qingge were busting their @ss@s trying to kill those Wraiths that kept on multiplying by the second.It started near a well, when Shen Jiu fought and fought, his heart pounding in his throat every time he saw those pesky Wraiths surrounding Liu Qingge; being attracted to a power-house that emitted Qi in uncontrollable waves that were like beacon summoning creatures from all around the forest; causing Shen Jiu to spent his time cursing as he ordered his Shidi to control his Qi, only for his words to be ignored as usual as Liu Qingge killed many Wraiths with just one hit.Shen Jiu remembered feeling angry, he remembered feeling wronged, disappointed… sad maybe? … all Shen Jiu remembered was feeling many negative emotions, not only because the mission took over three Shichen to finish, but because every order he gave to his Shidis went ignored. Be it by Liu Qingge who didn’t even spare him a glance in his quest to destroy and slash and kill every moving creature in sight, or by Shang Qinghua who hid behind safety and refused to give aid until everything was over…Shen Jiu just remembered feeling angry and helpless; wondering if he had enough pride and thickness in his face to give his Shizun a report of this mission; a report that would only highlight how inadequate Shen Jiu was as a leader that he couldn’t even managed to reign his Shidis probably, even when he was appointed as a leader by the combined orders of An Ding, Bai Zhan, and Qing Jing Peak Lords…It started near a well… when Shen Jiu turned to scold Liu Qingge who always had to make everything difficult, never giving Shen Jiu any regard or even doing the bare minimum by listening to him, even when ten times out of ten; his plans and quick thinking had managed to save many and gained him praise and respect by many Peak Lords who were waiting for Qing Jing Peak Lord to appoint Shen Jiu as his successor.Oh, how angry he was (How hurt he was) about how the righteous man that everyone swore by (The man that caught Shen Jiu's attention and managed to ensnare his heart on their first meeting) never even listened to his words or gave him any chance to prove himself. Never had Liu Qingge given him a crumb of attention other than demanding fights out of him, and when Shen Jiu complied against his will, he was spat on and called nothing but a cheater and disgrace.Oh, how furious Shen Jiu was, wanting to do nothing but start a fistfight with the spoilt Young Master who thought himself better than Shen Jiu just because of who his family was (Oh, how mad Shen Jiu was, because even when he was treated like dirt by the man standing in front of him, his heart still beat for the oaf who stole it during Shen Jiu’s first day in Cang Qiong; when the brute saw a lost Qing Jing disciple being bullied by his Shixiongs and beat them away, later apologizing to Shen Jiu and leaving before they even exchanged names… the only one who treated him like a human in a strange Sect who wanted to condemn him for his association with Wu Yanzi) maybe a hit or two would have straightened that idiotic way of thinking.It started near a well… Shen Jiu’s heart dropped to his stomach when he saw a surviving Warith attacking Liu Qingge’s blind spot with a speed too fast for the eye; his stupid, stupid Shidi did not notice the entity seeking his blood, and even Shen Jiu’s alarmed shout went ignored… It started near a well… when Shen Jiu felt his body move against his will; Xiu Ya rose high in the air as he attacked the Wraith that targeted the one under his command (The one he adored and swore to protect, hoping that this wouldn’t be another disappointing case of a past repeating itself with ‘Xiao Jiu and Qi-Ge’) making the creature give a silent shriek before disappearing.It started near a well… when Liu Qingge turned toward him with wide eyes that were full of shock; eyes that didn’t even take a second to turn murderous with rage and hate as his Shidi attacked him, drawing blood with his sword (For the first time being used for malice) and accusing him of heinous crimes with a voice full of disgust and anger. Ignoring how Shen Jiu was staring at him with hurt and confusion; every time he tried to open his mouth to explain, he was spat on and more accusations were thrown his way until he felt like he was suffocating.It started near a well… when Shen Jiu tried to make his stupid Shidi stop for a second and hear reason, instead of coming at him with the will to kill him (Making the fine hair on Shen Jiu rise on its ends, and for fear and terror to size his heart; because… because even when Liu Qingge and Shen Jiu spent their time fighting day and night… never once was Shen Jiu at the end of such killing intent that almost made him fall on his knees) making Shen Jiu rise his shaky hand and use Xiu Ya to protect himself…It started near a well… when time seemed to stop and both Shen Jiu and Liu Qingge froze in their places when they saw a Red String manifested in front of them, causing both of their breaths to still in their chests as their eyes widened; gazing at the threat that coiled and turned and snap in its place, rending the clearing silent as realization sat in and both of them turned toward the other.“You are…” Shen Jiu whispered to himself, his eyes widening as his heart picked up speed; the hurt that almost crushed him all but disappeared at the realization that his rival (The person he adored and looked up to) was his soulmate all along. A fact that made Shen Jiu tremble as he took a step toward his Shidi; the joy of finally having his soulmate (The happiness of knowing that he had a soulmate! Soulmate! Someone who would protect him, someone who would always stand by him and never leave him… someone who would love him regardless of him being a street rat with no future in sight) almost blinded him to the look of horror that seemed to mount and mount of his soulmate’s face until Liu Qingge’s shriek brought him back to earth.“No!” Liu Qingge snarled, his scream bringing the world to a halt and Shen Jiu could only stay frozen in his place as he saw his soulmate’s face become red with anger. “I refuse! I refuse to be shackled to a scum like you! I refuse for a lecherous backstabber like you to become my soulmate! I reject you!” Liu Qingge screamed with all his might, and Shen Jiu could only gasp as a soul-crushing pain seized him.In detachment, Shen Jiu could hear the sound of breaking glass in the distance, and part of him couldn’t help but think this was the sound of his heart being broken into fine pieces that would never be glued back together no matter how much he tried. In detachment and fascination, Shen Jiu could only watch the delicate thread that connected him to his beloved pull taught before snapping, leaving behind nothing but burned ends with no way to reattach them once more.“Why…?” Shen Jiu could only crock out, his wide eyes refusing to abandon the sight of the thread that once upon a time connected him to someone, even if it was for a split second; his eyes refused to shed the tears that brimmed in them, as his sight never once, left the burned end that attached to his pinky fluttering in the air and refusing to vanish completely, as if feeling the desperation and agony warring inside him. The self-deprecated part of Shen Jiu, couldn’t help but laugh and laugh until there was nothing else left for him to do; finding the thought of his soulmate leaving him and finding him lacking not even five seconds after the thread manifested itself too funny and fitting.“Why?! You dare to ask why?!” Liu Qingge continued without a stop, almost as if all of his inhibitors had vanished, and in its place, an angry beast was left. “A lecherous scum who spent his days and nights in brothels; a cheater and a liar who won't hesitate to stab someone in the back if given the chance, a spoilt Young Master who never had an honorable bone in his body. A dishonorable wretch that brought nothing but shame to our Sect… do you want me to continue?” Liu Qingge sneered, looking at Shen Jiu like he was something foul at the bottom of his shoe.As for Shen Jiu, he could only bite the inside of his cheek so hard to stop the tears that desperately wanted to leave his eyes from escaping; his heart was hurting so much and his soul screamed in agony, that Shen Jiu thought he would drop dead then and there. “Understood.” Was the only thing Shen Jiu managed to spit before turning around and walking toward their temporary camp, planning on gathering his things and returning to Cang Qiong to give his report.Shen Jiu could only feel his body move on autopilot, guiding Shen Jiu to complete his tasks when his mind and heart were thrown into chaos which left him shaking and confused. Shen Jiu could only continue on his path, feeling like his body was moving through thick molasses with every jerky move that seemed out of place; he could only furrow his brows in confusion at the road that became nothing but a blur with no defined way… Shen Jiu could only stop in his place as the realization sank and his tears managed to escape without being held back as his soul screamed in agony… oh…… Shen Jiu should have known… he should have known that a street rat like him doesn’t deserve a soulmate… he should have known and not let his hopes blind him as those rosy dreams of finding someone who would understand him and stay by his side filled his mind and heart with hopes and what-ifs… he should have known…   
  The Young Mistress had lied…
      
  “Soulless…”

   

   

  “Rejected?!”

   

   

  “…What he deserved!”

   

   

  “That lecherous?!”

   

   

  
    “The heavens must be mad for pairing the Liu scion with that scum…”
  

   

   

  “Did you hear what he did?!”

   

   

  “Murderer!”

   

   

  “…always knew he was a backstabber…”

   

   

  “Poor Liu-Shidi… to think…”

   

   

  
    “…being forced to spend his whole life alone because his soulmate was that scum!”
  

   

   

  “Liu-Shixiong…”
  Shen Jiu could only snarl, his body moving as fast as it could toward Bai Zhan, anger was what moved him, and rage and spit were what kept him alive. Tears burned his eyes in their desperation to make themselves known by sliding down his face, but Shen Jiu held them back, refusing for his tears to fall and make it known to everyone how hurt and in pain he was.Days… that’s how much had passed since the day he was rejected… only days since they got back to the Sect after the disaster that was the well’s mission; a taboo that not even the Peak Lords dared to ask the three of them about, not when the faces that greeted them made them back a step back… days… that’s how much the silence and self-doubt and hate had choked Shen Jiu; making him curl in the woodshed and berate himself over and over for not being enough, and being so vile and disgusting that his own soulmate rejected him without giving him a chance.Days… that’s how much Shen Jiu spent muffling his sobs and shriek of agony at night, as he felt his heart and soul being ripped over and over again, every time he remembered the red thread that connected him to his beloved shriveled and snapped and become nothing but chard and burned thread that floated in the winds unmoored, its dark black color making a bile rise in Shen Jiu’s throat before he forced it down and continued on with his life…Days… that’s how much Shen Jiu spent trying to rebuild himself after having the only thing that kept him going, the only thing that kept him sane, being ripped apart and spat on without caring for what his feelings were… days… that’s how much time Shen Jiu sat starring at the wall of the woodshed that served as his home, wondering what was so wrong with him that everyone he ever loved ended up abandoning him. What was so repulsive about him that everyone who ever crossed his way, ran away with disgust and hate shining in their eyes, or gave Shen Jiu dark looks that made him hurl and shiver in fear and disgust…Days… before the words finally reached him… days… before his Shizun looked at him with pity… days… before Yue Qingyuan came and ask him if it was true… days… before the whole mountains started buzzing up like they were flies surrounding stool… days… before it was known to the whole world that Shen Jiu was rejected by his own soulmate for being a scum… days… before everyone started looking at him with mockery and eyes full of delight as they watched and waited for what he was planning on doing next… days…To think that Shen Jiu believed Liu Qingge to be honorable enough to keep what happened to himself; to think that Shen Jiu thought himself to be human enough to deserve the bare minimum of courtesy for this to be kept a secret… to think Shen Jiu believed himself to be something above a slave and entertainment that Liu Qingge would give him the respect of licking his wounds in peace… to think…“Liu Qingge!” Shen Jiu snarled, his shout causing everyone on Bai Zhan to turn their head to him in confusion, some with disgust and hate before whispers started to descend on everyone on the peak; not that Shen Jiu cared about them, as he found his target who as always was ignoring him. “Liu Qingge!” Shen Jiu shrieked, causing the man to turn toward him with annoyance and disgust; a look that didn’t stay long on the brute’s face as Shen Jiu punched him hard enough in the face to break his nose.After that… fists were thrown, kicks, punches, and so many hateful words and threats that some disciples got scared and went to call their Shizun. After that… accusations and disgust-filled words, and so many more were thrown at one another until all were left to watch them were shaking at how intense and mad the scene in front of them was. After that… Qing Jing Lord and Bai Zhan Lord had to get involved and pull them apart, not wanting them to rip each other out more than they already did.“Honorable my ass!” Shen Jiu remembered shrieking as his Shizun pulled him away, his eye swollen shut, and his lower lip bleeding heavily. “I thought you would have the honor to give me the courtesy of keeping what happened between us, but lo and behold, a snitch is a snitch no matter which family they come from!" Shen Jiu screamed, tears running down his face as he fought his Master’s hold, he shouted a few more hurtful remarks, hoping that Liu Qingge would feel as hurt as Shen Jiu was at this moment.“A snitch?!” Liu Qingge snarled as he all but tried to break out of his Shizun and Martial Brothers’ grip, his eyes wild and his hair even more so as he all but dragged everyone holding him back to descend on him. “As if a scum like you deserves a f@ck@ng courtesy after what you have done! I gave you a f@ck@ng courtesy for not reporting what you did and getting you kicked out of the Sect, but no more!” A few more shouts after that, a few attempts to escape to beat the other down before their Shizuns managed to drag them away to their respectable peaks, making sure to not let those two cross paths for the next day or more. 
  After that…
 “I didn’t try to kill him…” Shen Jiu said, trying to control his voice in front of his Shizun; his Shizun gazed at his kneeling form for a few more seconds before letting out a tired sigh, making Shen Jiu twitch. “There was a Wraith behind Liu-Shidi; I exorcized it before Liu-Shidi noticed, resulting in a misunderstanding when he turned and saw my sword pointing at him.” Shen Jiu repeated for what felt like the millionth time, his dry eyes were stinging him, and his heart squeezed painfully at the resignation look in his Shizun’s eyes. “You can ask Shang-Shidi if you do not believe me." Shen Jiu bit the inside of his cheek, trying to stop his hands from trembling as he waited for the judgment that would befall him.“I believe you, A-Jiu… it’s just… the Liu Clan is threatening to get involved if we don’t do something; this is the best I can do to protect you… this way you won't be kicked out of the Sect, and no one can say we didn’t do something to handle the situation…” His Shizun said, his words soft and tired, causing Shen Jiu’s lips to tremble before he gathered himself to sit straight.“I am not guilty, and sending me off the Sect for a prolonged night hunt is the definition of me admitting guilt.” Shen Jiu said, hoping to make his Shizun reconsider this unfair treatment and unfair judgment; hoping that his Shizun would see the truth in his eyes and stop the Sect from kicking him out because he knew… he knew… that as soon as they threw him, they would never allow him to take another step inside of Cang Qiong, even if his Shizun said otherwise.“I am sorry…” His Shizun said, and Shen Jiu could only swallow and nod his head, ignoring how his heart dropped to the bottom of his stomach as the realization he was going to get kicked off the Sect for something he didn’t do sank in. “It’s just for six months, A-Jiu, nothing more; you can consider this… a vacation of a sort, some kind of gateway from the Sect and the bullies…” His Shizun tried, but his words brought nothing but dread and resignation in Shen Jiu’s being.“I understand…” Shen Jiu whispered, ignoring how his Shizun went on and on as he tried to comfort him; ignored the demands and rules and whatnot that needed him to comply with as he went on a night hunt, ignored how his Shizun told him about the weekly reports that were required of him and how his Shizun put his hand on his shoulder to comfort him… 
  After that…
 “Xiao Jiu!” A voice called out, causing Shen Jiu to still in his place as he felt something crawl under his skin hearing that that wretched name that informed him no matter what he did, no matter what position he acquired, he would never be more than ‘Little Nine’ nothing but a forgotten and hated slave that everyone considered a scum. Turning around Shen Jiu was greeted by the sight of Yue Qingyuan, running toward him with a frantic look in his eyes. “Don’t call me that!” Shen Jiu could only snarl, hoping for once in his life that Yue Qi would hear him and stop using that cursed name.But as always Yue Qi ignored his orders, ignored his pleas, ignored his will, as he came running and screaming ‘Xiao Jiu’ on top of his lungs until he stood right in front of him. “Is it true? Xiao Jiu… is it?!” Yue Qi asked, and Shen Jiu could only clench his fists tightly as he glared at his once-upon-a-time brother and confidence.Whatever Shen Jiu planned on screaming at the stupid man standing in front of him was cut by the annoying voice of a woman whining and running after Yue Qingyuan; Qi Qingqi, the woman who hated his guts for no reason, the woman his brother forsaken him for, the woman who went out of her way to make Shen Jiu’s life more miserable than it already was… Qi Qingqi… his brother’s soulmate. “Qi-Ge! Why did you run like this all of a sudden?” She asked in a high and shrilled voice, the title she used almost made Shen Jiu spit blood as his fists clenched tightly, feeling like his heart was going to give out any moment now when he saw how his brother had all but forgotten about him in the presence of his soulmate… not even caring that only a few seconds ago he had rushed toward Shen Jiu to talk to him, not her…   
  After that… Shen Jiu left…
     
  It ended near a well…
  Shen Jiu didn’t know how long he walked aimlessly, his eyes vacant as he saw his legs move without his direction, taking a step after the other propelling him forward. It had been some time since he left Cang Qiong Mountain to go off on his solo Night Hunt, and with every step he took he felt something in him crumble, causing the tears he held on for so long ever since he was kicked out to make their appearance known. 
  “Just for six months, A-Jiu… just until everything calms down and the Liu Clan stops in their demands…”
 His Shizun had said, no doubt he was unaware… or maybe refused to acknowledge the fact that as soon as Shen Jiu left the Sect, he was never permitted to come back to it. Want it or not, the Liu Clan had already put a mark on his head, not only for ‘Attacking’ their beloved heir but also for being unworthy of being their only heir’s soulmate; it would be a cold day in hell before they even allowed Shen Jiu to step anywhere near their son and the Sect their son lived in.Shen Jiu walked… his lips trembling as he tried to control the tears that threatened to escape from his eyes at the thought of being kicked out of the only stable home he could have had; a home that had Yue Qingyuan (The brother he loved and hated in equal parts, the reason he was this broken scum that everyone hated and scorn) and Liu Qingge (The person who Shen Jiu was foolish enough to fancy and hoped to gain his love; the person that Shen Jiu used to fantasies about being his other half… oh, how the fates and Gods were laughing at him from heavens… Shen Jiu’s wish had come true, and his soulmate turned out to be Liu Qingge as he had wished for, but at what price? A burned and snapped thread that brought tears into Shen Jiu’s eyes every time he saw it) a home that offered him protection and a place to rest his back in for the first time in twenty years, allowing him to get attached to the idea of safety and hope. 
  It ended near a well…
 So, he walked… biting his lower lip hard enough to split it open and allow blood to ooze, hoping that the pain in his lips would take his attention away from the tears stinging his eyes, and the unbearable pain that was consuming his heart ever since the day he was rejected by his beloved (Trying not to break apart as he remembered how cold Liu Qingge was as he saw him get kicked off the peak; face twisted in a sneer and eyes full of disgust and hate). He walked, trying to erase the sight of how everyone came to see the promising disciple of Qing Jing getting kicked out of the Sect; trying to erase how they laughed and pointed at him and tittered behind their hands, eyes shining with cruel light as they finally got rid of the scum that tainted their pure mountains. So, he walked… The Qiankun Pouch that his Shizun prepared for him was heavy in his robes, holding as many Taels, clothes, accessories, and food as it could, bulging out with how heavy it was; his sword clutched tightly in his hands as if fearing it would be taken away from him because pure swords aren’t allowed in the hands of scum…Shen Jiu didn’t know his destination or where he was supposed to go, all he knew was that he was told he was going on a Night Hunt, and that was that… no directions were given, no mission was assigned, no beast was he ordered to slay… nothing… they just told him their piece before throwing him off the mountains to wander aimlessly until he no doubt decided to set his roots somewhere far away from Cang Qiong (Or as many no doubt hoped) or get mauled by a beast to death so he don’t come back. 
  It ended near a well…
 Shen Jiu’s feet led him away from the mountain and through the forests, until his mind finally noticed that he had returned somewhere familiar… somewhere that started this mess, and how fitting it was for Shen Jiu to come to this place when he saw his Red String for the first and last one time before it was burned away; leaving behind nothing but broken hearts and shattered dreams, leaving behind a soul that forever to be denied their other half and not allowed a chance to be loved and completed…It was there, near this well, this cursed and wretched place when all of Shen Jiu’s dreams become true only to shatter later, that Shen Jiu finally crumbled and allowed himself to cry. Sobs wrecked his body, and wails left his lips; tears slid down his cheeks like a never-ending river as the pain that had taken hold of him ever since that fateful day when everything turned upside down was set loose. Shen Jiu remembered sliding down to his knees as he let all the pain he felt ever since he was rejected; clutching his chest (Where his heart was) tightly as he begged and begged for any entity or a God out there to take this pain that was killing him from the inside, turning him more rotten than he already was.Shen Jiu wept; breath heaved, and eyes red. The feeling of being forever lost and unwanted took hold of him, clawing at his throat and refusing him a respite despite everything he had gone through… his parents… his Qi-Ge… his soulmate… everyone… they all left him in the end, they all branded him as scum in the end; the cursed child that no one wanted, the lecherous scum who tainted everything he touched; the backstabbing liar who never had an honorable bone in his body and always plotted people’s downfall… hated, unwanted, cursed… 
  It ended near a well…
 The sound of his pain was so loud that Shen Jiu didn’t notice the shrilled cry until it was too late; causing him to turn around sluggishly, only to be greeted by the sight of a familial Wraith; a Wraith that as soon as it saw Shen Jiu it let out an ear-splitting screech before it attacked… by then it was too late for Shen Jiu to move and defend himself, even as the Wraith gripped him with claw-like hands and dragged him to the well (No doubt planning on drowning him and pulling his lifeforce like it did all the victims who dared to cross this forest) its grip was so tight, and its strength was so great as Shen Jiu tired and broken body couldn’t overpower it, even with Xiu Ya in hand…It ended near a well… where Shen Jiu was thrown in, by an entity seeking revenge, planning on sucking his life as retribution for the ones he took the first time he came here to purify this place… it ended near a well… where Shen Jiu’s body hit the water with a hard impact causing his breath to leave his lungs as he was dragged to the bottom of the well; the water surrounding him, making him feel both heavy and weightless as he sank by the order of the Wraith holding him… it ended near a well… when Shen Jiu closed his eyes and accepted his fates, knowing that no one was coming to save him and no one was going to miss or mourn him… it ended near a well… when Shen Jiu knew that everyone was no doubt going to celebrate the death of the scum that tainted their mountains and saw himself above them just because he was the Liu scion soulmate… it ended near a well… when a blinding light engulfed them and an inhuman shriek filled with pain and agony was heard, and Shen Jiu’s only regret in this world was not being able to see his soulmate’s face one last time before he left…  
  …It ended near a well….
                                               
  
    …………………….It started near a well…….
  
                   “Holy sh@t!” Shen Jiu managed to hear as his consciousness returned to him for a split second so he could expel the water from his lungs; coughing and heaving until all there was left was a burn that brought tears of pain to Shen Jiu’s eyes as his lungs squeezed tightly to expel every burning drop from his body. “Hey, can you hear me?” A familiar voice asked, causing Shen Jiu to shake as he was turned to his side to throw up, his body shivering as he finally fell to the ground like a doll with strings cut. “Shush, it’s ok, you are ok…” A voice whispered to him gently, causing a whine to leave Shen Jiu’s wrecked throat, and against his will, he opened his teary eyes, wondering if the Gods had taken pity on Shen Jiu to grant him his only wish before his death.What greeted him was familiar grey-blue eyes that looked at him with concern and bewilderment; eyes that were attached to a familiar face that made a sob wreck Shen Jiu’s chest as those eyes held concern and fear in them. “…Qi… Qing… Ge…” Shen Jiu only managed to choke out through his burning throat, his hand trying to stretch toward his savior and killer… his salvation and doom… but was too weak to move. Shen Jiu could only close his eyes, his body finally starting to shut down after the roll coaster he was forced to endure; his heart feeling strangely light at the thought of his wish being granted and that the Gods had allowed him to see his soulmate one more before his death…
