[Ultraman] Lonely Heart

What happened afterwards, Sylvia actually didn't remember very clearly.

She had long dreams in the ice, so long that at one point she thought she had reached the world of the dead.In fact, Sylvia wasn't very scared. After all, before being frozen by the oncoming cold, she staggered to the edge of the Spark Tower with the remaining energy, and died beside her best friend.If there is no way out after entering the Netherworld, then being able to go to the end together with your companions may be a kind of perfection that is not considered complete.

However, she had prepared for the worst, but her fate still refused to end there.

"...Sylvia, Sylvia?"

When he opened his eyes again, the ice and snow had melted, and the surrounding area had returned to the usual prosperous light.Silvia was stunned for a while before realizing that the big face above her head that was looking down on her belonged to Sophie, who was shaking her shoulders lightly, trying to wake her up: "Are you okay?"

"...if you count being frozen and then thawed, then I'm alright?"

It took ten seconds to find her own voice. She held the hand offered by her elder brother and stood up with strength, but she still couldn't fully recover from the series of shocks.

Looking at the other party in a daze, she took a deep breath: "I seem to have a dream, Sophie... I dreamed that Sero came back, defeated Beria, and took back the energy core of the plasma spark tower."

"Ah, this shouldn't be a dream."

Patting the other party's shoulder very sincerely, Sophie nodded:

"That's what Sai Luo did. After all, children have grown up, don't be surprised, and don't feel complicated because he defeated Beria, who couldn't defeat the entire Kingdom of Light."

"..."

Have you accidentally spoken your heart out?

They looked at each other and fell silent, maybe 1 minute, maybe longer, until the cheers of the surrounding crowd had already moved away from the plasma spark tower, and the sound of the timer flickering in the air became louder and louder. It's getting clearer, like some kind of merciless mockery.And this behavior of turning on the red light under the Tower of Sparks, with or without Sero as a comparison, seems embarrassing at this moment.

"Can I ask you one more thing?"

Staring at the energy core that was still flickering on Sophie's chest, Sylvia looked at it for a long time, until the eldest brother finally couldn't bear her straightforward gaze, raised his hand to cover his chest, and then spoke slowly:

"I walked to the Spark Tower before and observed the crime scene before being frozen—"

"Okay, I know what you're going to say."

He knew it was not good when he heard the beginning of a sentence, and immediately made a gesture of 'stop here'.The elder brother who had been hurt too much interrupted her without hesitation, and suffered too much grievance that he shouldn't have at his age: "But you know how much Beria is capable, and I am not the only one who was beaten this time."

"But so many people were beaten, but you were the only one who was beaten so badly," and Sylvia was heartbroken: "Sophie, think about it carefully."

"..."

What do I reflect on? Didn't you persecute me together from the beginning to the end?

Thinking of the misfortune I have suffered in these years, I feel a dull pain in my heart.Sophie walked away in one breath, stood there panting for a while, opened her mouth to speak, but she didn't know what she saw, her eyes widened suddenly, and half a word was choked back in her throat.

"What?" Sylvia tilted her head in confusion, not knowing why he was convulsed: "Is there anything behind me?"

... There is a very big rabbit.

Sophie was silent for a moment, then nodded.Without waiting for the other party to ask, Hikari, who was passing by from nowhere, suddenly appeared, grabbed the elder brother's shoulders, lifted him from where he was, and dragged him in the opposite direction.

"I'll take him to the Silver Cross to have a look, so I won't bother you to reminisce about the old days."

Throwing such a sentence to Sylvia, the black technology boss grabbed Sophie and disappeared from her sight, covering his mouth while walking, the speed was not running too fast, but flying too low .

"?"

A row of question marks slowly appeared above Sylvia's head.Before she could realize what Hikari meant, she heard footsteps behind her, steady and powerful, as if stepping through time, connecting the past and the future in her life again.

She froze for a moment and turned around.

It happened to be a familiar face, but it also became a little strange.

"Sylvia."

He has grown into an indomitable boy, a hero who can save everyone from darkness.Amidst the bright light of the plasma sparks and the cheers of the surrounding crowd resounding through the sky, Sai Luo stood quietly on the spot, staring intently at the change of every inch of expression on her face: "Long time no see."

Indeed, it has been too long.

He can take a long time to transform and become the person he once wanted to be.The chasm-like years and arduous practice can wear away a lot of things, but they can never quench the fire of yearning that has been burning in my heart, and even become more and more vigorous, fermenting into another kind of blazing that is more forbearing, but also more persistent .

"I am back."

Another half step forward, completely filling the gap between the two.Sai Luo leaned forward, as if he wanted to crash into the opponent's arms like he did when he was a child, but in the end he opened his arms and hugged her in a possessive gesture.

"I'm back, Sylvia." He lowered his head, his forehead resting on her shoulder, and there was an imperceptible choke in his voice: "I really miss you."

"..."

This hug is like confinement, almost suffocating.Silvia stood where she was, her mind blank.The shadows of the past and the present were intertwined before her eyes. Only then did she finally realize that the boy holding her was no longer the child in her memory. He had grown into an existence that even she needed to look up to, able to stand alone , to fulfill all the dreams I have ever dreamed of.

After a long silence, he finally lost to the deepest desire in his heart.Sylvia heaved a long sigh, stretched his arms back, and buried his face into the boy's warm neck, feeling the urge to cry for the first time in his life.

She never dared to underestimate the significance of Sai Luo to herself, but in the end, she found that she still underestimated the huge waves caused by companionship and separation over the years.

"you have grown up."

After hesitating again and again, facing Sai Luo's already broad chest, Sylvia still chose the most innocuous sentence: "It seems that I missed a lot."

"No." The boy shook his head, his tone was very firm: "It's just some insignificant things... With you, I have never changed."

The days of hard training on K76 remained the same, without Sylvia, the years always seemed so dull.He was always afraid of being abandoned by the other party, but when they were really separated from each other, at the two ends of the distant nebula, he realized that accepting reality was actually more difficult than he imagined.

"I thought you didn't want me anymore."

It's the same as acting like a baby when I was a child.Sai Luo lightly rubbed Sylvia's forehead, aggrieved as if the parting these years was all the fault of the other party: "You never come to K76 to see me."

"...If you don't touch the Plasma Spark Tower, I can see you every day in the Kingdom of Light."

Feeling the same angry and funny helplessness as before for a long time, Sylvia reached out and patted the child on the back of the head, for fear of making a "dong dong" sound:

"And it's reasonable, Sai Luo. Even if you have Leo and Astra training with you, you should have the awareness that you were exiled to K76. Ordinary people really can't find your prison. You can't blame me for this."

"I do not care."

But children don't want to be reasonable, they just want to make trouble for no reason.In five seconds, he completely abandoned the reliability and maturity of the previous battle with Beria in the monster cemetery. He hugged his titular guardian and refused to let go, rolling around in full view, as if he had been abandoned in the wilderness The puppy in the middle, with a face full of grievance and fear, no matter what, he burrows into the softest place in the heart:

"You were the one who didn't want me in the first place. I don't care. You can't do this. You have to make up for me and agree to all my demands!"

"..."

This is really a big pot on her forehead.

After being silent for a long time, Sylvia carefully recalled the past, but no matter what, she couldn't figure out where she had abandoned the other party, she couldn't laugh or cry.And immersed in the head-splitting with the child, she didn't realize that since she reunited with Sai Luo, her expressions were actually more than the sum of the past few years.

"... No wonder you insist on pulling me away."

Crouching at the corner, sneaking out half of his head to watch.It is said that Zuofi, who was taken to the Silver Cross, glanced at Hikari, who was also listening to the corner, and felt a little uncomfortable: "So you already knew that Sai Luo was standing behind? Why didn't you remind me."

"I didn't expect you to be so blind."

Gaving him a very indescribable look, the great scientist sighed silently, with a trace of melancholy on his expression: "Sai Luo stood there for so long to give Sylvia a surprise, but you are still chatting with her. Biting you is enough restraint."

Sophie: "..."

So he shouldn't be here, should be under the car, right?

On the other side, unaware that her two children were watching silently, Sylvia let go of her arms and looked at Sai Luo, who was almost a head taller than her, with the same helplessness in her tone and expression.

"What compensation do you want?" She said slowly, and decided that if the child made a very unreasonable request, she called Seven to come and take the brat away.

And Sero never hesitated.It was as if he had always known what he needed. Looking at Sylvia's dazed face, it was as if he was making an unchanging oath for the rest of his life:

"I want to be with you forever, Sylvia."

Every minute, every second, day and night, this life and the next life are together.

Forever, until the end of the universe.
