CHAPTER 54

Kilo stumbled out of the craft, holding the man in his arms tightly as he slowly walked across the landing pad stationed to the right of a low and long, luxurious residence. Following the winding sidewalk connecting the pad to the residence, Kilo shifted the man in his arms to drape over his back and shoulders as he approached the house. The angel quickly entered a code into the screen positioned on the wall next to the dark, wide door. The locks to the door clicked, and the door became ajar with three beeps.

Kilo managed to swing the door wider with his foot before swiftly entering as the door automatically closed behind him. Sensing movement, lights flickered on, indirectly lighting the residence in a warm glow. The setting sun could be seen through the tall, wide windows which provided perfect views of the beautiful landscape of Mythos. Two steps led down to the common area eight feet in front of the angel where three sofas were positioned in a U formation with a low table stationed in the center. A modern kitchen stocked with all the necessities for cooking a luxurious meal with a corridor leading to guest rooms and baths just to the right of the kitchen lied to the angel's right while a long hallway leading to the master bedroom and study resided to his left.

After taking quick glances of his surroundings and making sure the house was safe and unoccupied, Kilo started down the hall to his right. After bypassing two guest rooms and a few storage closets, the angel arrived at the room at the end of the hall. The setting sun cast the room in a golden glow, while the motion-sensed, indirect lighting compliment the warm glow, making a very homey and safe environment for the two whose only longing was to live together peacefully.

Kilo carefully laid Castyr on the soft bed before searching for the command switches. After finding a screen in the wall beside the bedroom door, Kilo activated it, turned off the lights, and lowered the white shades over the windows. Even without lighting, the room remained in a low, warm glow, making Kilo relax as he walked over to the bed and joined his star in slumber.

<<<<<<<>>>>>>>

Kilo and Castyr remained in the bed consumed by the energy bubble for four days, only leaving for occasional baths and when Kilo felt hungry.

Kilo woke with the fifth sunrise and was met with a beautiful sight. The energy bubble surrounding Castyr sparkled in the morning sunlight, projecting beautiful patterns on the star. A soft smile came to Kilo's lips as he looked at his star fondly, unaware of the small tear escaping his eye. Oh, how he longed for Castyr to open his eyes and gaze at him with his bright smile.

Castyr had remained stable the past four days, so Kilo had a chance to search for the screen which controlled the commands and other features of the house. Finding the screen in the study down the opposing hallway, Kilo set the protection perimeter around the house to alert him if any movement was detected. Once the security measures had been set, Kilo quickly returned to his star, making sure he did not leave for too long of a time.

Night came slowly for the angel. Kilo returned both Castyr and himself to bed after grabbing himself something to eat. Even though the angel was not too hungry, he knew he needed to eat to upkeep his strength, so he could put more energy into the cycle. Kilo kissed Castyr on the top of the head before pulling his star in and putting his body in the mode to keep the cycle going while he got some shut-eye.

...

"Kilo...Kilo!"

The angel jerked awake when he heard Castyr's voice. It took a few moments for the angel to calibrate his surroundings. He was in a dark void; it seemed to be endless.

"Kilo!" The cry sounded once more in the distance.

"Castyr?!!" Kilo called as he began to dash madly toward the direction of the cry. "Castyr!"
