SELENA
Selena didn't dare take a step away from the monsters in front of them. The big one who seemed seven feet tall landed like a hawk before them. She raised her gaze to his and decided to hold her ground. She made a mental note to cover both herself and Cynthia thoroughly.
The big guy spoke, and they didn't understand a thing.
Damn. This is more troublesome than I thought.
"We can't understand you!" Cynthia yelled, crossing her hands in the air, telling them they couldn't comprehend. Her shouting only aggravated the
DYLAN "WHAT IS THIS CAGE?!" her voice was frenzied, and she's visibly having a moment. She's thrashing in her seat. Her gaze looked around the place like, just by doing so, she could actually flee. "What cage?" Zack asked and stopped her from leaving the bed. "Let go of me!" she screamed. Dylan cursed when he started hearing the nurses' anxious footsteps. "Hey, calm down," Dylan said and pushed her back on the bed. "We're here to help you!" She continued muttering, eyes wide with panic. "This cage… This cage…" Her rage was really disturbing.And what cage?
ZACHZach had made a few visits to Selena's house ever since that Saturday night when the two girls fell out. He searched for her at school first thing that Monday. They basically share the same classes, but Selena was nowhere. Tuesday came, and again his search was for naught. When he asked her mother if she went to school that day, she said that she did. He's not much when it comes to patience, so he knew he was running out of it.He had been finding it hard to sleep ever since he left Zach and Cynthia at the hospital. He hadn't even seen Selena since then either. He's been feeling extraordinarily wobbly and irritated. His thought went to his classmate, who had the weird power to conjure some force field. She doesn't even have a face.&
ZACH The next day, Wednesday, he woke up late. He got to school feeling morose. He parked on the basketball court and scoffed at the sound of women swooning at him. He basked in their unwavering affection and scanned the crowd for the familiar-looking hairstyle, and still, he found nothing like it. Where the fuck are you? The school isn't that big either. Why was he finding it hard to find Selena? He checked with the teachers and learned that she'd taken the quizzes like a typical in attendance student does. He went to the library dozens of times, and there was still no sign of her. He decided that today, he was going to mingle with the other students for a change. He walked to the building only to be thwarted by a puny girl w
CYNTHIA There was an event coming up at school. Cynthia was chosen to play the part of the evil witch of an enchanted themed play that Dylan was forced to write. Since he failed to bring Cynthia to Jon's party, Jon practically punished him by announcing to the whole campus his nerdy nature. Jon informed the Theatre club of his personal endeavors as an aspiring writer. As soon as Monday came, he was scouted by the President of the Theatre club to co-write the play. Cynthia had formerly declined to join the theatre club, but after hearing of him writing the play, she was ecstatic to play even the role of a tree. Opal, who had reconciled with Cynthia, having noticed the absence of her Radiance, was busy helping him assemble the trees as the stage's backdrop.
ZACH Zach was feeling excited. They're going to watch Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone at Selena's house. Selena told him that she had mentioned his visit later that morning to her grandmother and mother. Her gran, after a bit of persuasion, approved. But as soon as she got home, Selena's sister welcomed them with a panic-stricken face. She threw her backpack on the sofa and steadied her. Zach entered the house without being invited. Lyka held unto her as the world depends on it. "It's Ruben! He… He got into a fight, and Gran and Mom…" she burst into tears. "Mom tried to be a mediator, and she was hit by a bat on the head... She passed out. Gran brought her to the hospital. R
DYLANDylan looked down at the Trevian Prince, who was having a face-off with a woman Earthling. She's particularly eye-catching for an Earthling, if Periuz shall admit. And the Radiant Earthling they came there for was now sprawled on the loamy soil. Looking as every bit a Welkin as an Earthling can. "What is the Prince doing?" Prowlaz asked, annoyed. "What's with the delay?" "I'd dare say he's in love," Morton said, chuckling. "Look at him. He's smitten." "Well, I don't think he's fallen, love. I think he's merely surprised," Perez said. &nb
KING ODENCLIFFE He looked at himself in the mirror with satisfaction. His white complexion rendered him the most attractive King in the history of Welkin. His brothers envied this part of him so much that they used to bully him all the time when they were younger. One of his concubines, whose name he had long forgotten, handed him his most favored weapon, the rapier. She murmured a couple of praises that he subtly ignored. Odincliffe is the King known for his fondness for beauty. He likes collecting things that are appealing to his eyes. Unlike his brother Trevino, who's a collector of everything unique, or his brother Altaire, a fanatic of destruction,
Trevino called fort for the Eye, Resmeia, as soon as he arrived back at his Fiefdom. He waited patiently for her in his throne room, answering his consort's inquiries about the summit in a passive tone. Resmeia strode inside the throne room, but he sent her flying across the place as soon as she had gone near enough. She landed in a dull thud on the marbled floor. "How dare you let yourself get spied on?!" his wrath sent a ripple of raw power throughout the room. "You careless fool!" She rose from the floor, clutching her throbbing chest. She heard a husky chuckle, and she didn't have to look that it came from the King's consort. What valid reason can she offer? She thought of none and settled on silence. &nbs
