72"So this was one of your foolish trickery." I said to Helen, angrily."What has happened has happened. How does it matter now? It's too late to go back now." Helen said and laughed.I tightened my fist, trying to control my anger."You can't possibly go through with this. She got involved. She tricked Melanie into it so she could have her way." Kyle said to me."I know all that but my word is my word and I can't go back on it. I have to do this." I said to Kyle and picked up the crystal.Melanie held me back. No! I won't let you go! I should be the one in your place right now. This is all my fault and I should be the one in your place right now." Melanie cried as she kept her grip on me from behind.I turned and hugged her for what I knew was the last time. "I'm sorry I can't stay." I said to her then pulled away from the hug. Delanie held Melanie close to herself and I took the crystal ball towards Helen and stopped right in front of her."So tell me... What is the truth?" I asked
73"So what you are saying is that Helen used a spell to capture Kyle? It wasn't like it was bound to happen to whoever gives her the crystal ball?" I asked."Yes. So now we need to find Helen and get the crystal ball back." Denver said. "You said you weren't sure if it would work. You sound pretty sure to me." I said to Denver."I sound sure because that seems to me like the only logical way to get Kyle out. I said i'm not sure because it wasn't exactly said, the way to release him." Denver said."There's a way to get Kyle back?"We both turned to see Delanie standing not so far from us."You found a way to bring him back and you both wanted to keep it a secret from me? What did you want? For me to continue wallowing in drepression?" Delanie said to us."It's not what you think Delanie. Denver was just worried about you. He isn't sure if breaking the crystal ball is the way to get Kyle out of it." I said to Delanie."Fine." Delanie said. "But don't try to hide such information from
(MELANIE MARTINEZ POV):I watched with great interest as she moved her body like a delicate flower. The way she swayed with ease and passion amazed me immensely. I couldn't believe it myself. This was what I wanted for myself when I get older. I literally daydreamed of the day hundreds of men would watch me in action as I portray my talent on that stage. But little did I know that my twin sister already had my life planned out for me. Hello, my name is Melanie Martinez and this is my story. The story of my unfortunate life and how I got to meet a powerful demon king, Denver Hale.You see, what you read earlier was something that used to happen when I was just a little child.My mother was that graceful woman on stage. She wasn't a ballerina and nor was she some other sort of dancer.Well, she was actually a dancer but not just any kind. My mother was a pole dancer that I adored so much as a kid.
"Melanie? Delanie? You're back so soon?" Mom asked us."Obviously." Delanie answered."Don't mind her mom. What's going on here?" I asked."It's nothing girls. Just go to your room and wait it out a bit okay?" Mom answered."Nothing? Go to their room? Don't you think it's about time you start treating you children as adults Barbra?" Our uncle asked."It's non of your business the way I train my children. So stop sticking your nose where it doesn't belong." Mom answered back.Uncle Gavin grinned cunningly at mom then wiped it off and turned directly at I and Delanie. He walked till he reached where we stood and whispered to us."Do you want to know a little secret?" Uncle Gavin asked."Gavin!" Mom shouted his name but that didn't stop him from speaking up."Your mother here is about to loose everything to me. That's what." Uncle Gavin said, smiles and wal
Delanie also got off bed and stood up to stretch."I have to take a bath first before going anywhere." Delanie said."This is serious Delanie. No time for baths. Take this." Mom said, shoving Delanie's luggage into her hands and mine into my own hands.She rushed out of our room and we followed her from behind as quickly as we could."Mom"Could you please explain what is going on?" I asked her."Not now sweetie." Mom said and opened the front door but only to bump into uncle Gavin.Mom almost fell on her butt but I wedged her from behind just in time."I never thought you would so much be in a hurry to follow orders." Uncle Gavin said to mom."Stay out of my way you freak." Mom replied uncle Gavin."Freak? Oh dear sister in-law. Is that any way to speak to your late husband's brother? Oh, I forgot. He's dead so of course it's an opportunity for y
"Please sir. We have nowhere else to go. No one else to run to. You are our only hope." My mother begged him."No. You can not and will not live here." Mr Levinson replied, sternly.My mom bowed her head in shame."I'm willing to do anything sir. Even if it means working double shifts sir. I dance dance here morning, afternoon and night for the guests." My mom offered.Mr Levinson rubbed his fingers on his chin then he got up from his seat and paced let and right."The both of you can stay here and you don't have to work for more than tour shift Barbra." Mr Levinson said."I... Don't?" My mom asked, unsure of what she had just heard."Yes. You don't. I will make your stay here very comfortable for you and your lovely daughter for just two days. After these two days, you and your daughter will be presented with a condition. Your answer will determine if you will stay here for long
"Talking a lot today aren't we Delanie?" Helena asked, slyly."Hmm... I don't know. I talk a lot all the time." I replied."It's time for us to start work. It's night and a few individuals are still out and about. Our perfect moment since there's not much people." Helena said."Kelvin, Celia, and I will got South and the two of you, Delanie and Sandra will go North." Helena stated."Of course she would always make sure that Kelvin and herself stay on the same team.We parted ways and our stealing began just like other nights." I don't get it. Why does she always group us this way? It's always you and me then her and her boyfriend and Celia."Sarah complained."She just wants to keep Kelvin to herself that's why. And Celia? Haha, I don't think I have to explain that part. Celia is the only one in our group of thieves that she can easily manipulate trust me." I answered.
#####6The man I pushed and stole a bicycle from was shouting at me to return it but I just laughed. Did I steal it to return it?I'm trashing it somewhere as soon as I'm done with it.The car kept increasing speed but I was much smarter than that. When all seemed lost I went through a short cut.I wasn't someone they could easily escape in these parts. Never.The car would take a sharp turn but with each effort they made they couldn't wave me off their tail but then I got confused. The car seemed to have doubled and I thought I was probably all in my head.However, no matter how much I blinked it was still doubled and from a transparent form became two solid cars.I could have sworn it was just one car. It's a clear road. Where did the other one come from?Nevertheless I followed them both but unfortunately for me they came to a T junction and split paths.I paused f
