I took a walk down the dark hallway of the palace. I need to find the Prince and the youth rank; the group. I didn't change my clothes, I just walked. I don't care, in the First District we don't have a problem even if our clothes are torn, who am I to be choosy now? I have no right to this luxurious place in the first place. So whether I walk around wearing a rug-- it doesn't matter to me. I also tried to find Manang Omeng, I went to her room but she was not there. She seemed angry with me when I decided to join the group. I immediately felt that she was worried about me. And I'm glad to think that, even if it's just a thought for me, it's so sweet to know that someone is worried about you."Manang Omeng ..." I called softly when I went to the place with many books."Oh!""F*ckk--" We were both surprised by the person I met. I immediately bowed in respect even though I had not yet seen who it was."What are you doing here?"I looked up. My eyes dilated in shock. Her gorgeous fierce l

It will not be easy, but it would be better for me to join as someone who knows a little than nothing. The girls were snoring already. I smiled, they are probably wealthy and have tons of responsibilities but they are still among the youth who deserve pleasure and enough sleep. I don’t know what kind of storm I will face tomorrow, but I promise I will come back alive. I promised myself, Marcus and Laura, and I cannot let them down. My grandmother will be waiting for me, I need to survive here. So I began to study every detail written on the map. This is not just a simple map, Corinthians also wrote additional information on it while she e was probably studying it. There is also information about the gemstones we will be looking for."Eclipse... What time will the eclipse start?" I whispered.I think it's already midnight, but the Eclipse is still not happening. I thought it would happen tonight, it looks like the morning is approaching and the said event is still not happening. Beneat

The booming voices from the outside came thrilling my ears. The Echelons are ringing us so early in the morning."Wake up! Wake up! Rise and find, rise and find!" A bright light hit me in the face. It's not coming from the rays of the sun, it's Nathalia's light! Her hands were aglow again irritating our dear eyes."Get your light away from my face you witch!" Corinthians spat angrily as she tried to push the light away from her face. Nathalia seems to be enjoying as she just chuckled at our reaction specially to Corinthians's annoyance."I'm trying to wake you up, duh? Let's get ready!" Nathalia said, still chuckling as the light from her hands slowly ceased. Corinthians and I could finally breathe and move properly as our vision adjusted to the sudden darkness. I squinted my eyes and roamed around the smokey woodland. I could see nothing but white smokes, the early dusts in the forest.The sun hadn’t risen yet, but we had to hurry with the search because we weren’t the only ones loo

My screams rang out and echoed throughout the wilds when I felt like I had drowned in my run. I thought I was going to stumble down but then suddenly I felt myself floating in the air. Simultaneously, with my floating in the air was the fall of the tree beside me. The big bear just ran into the big tree that almost hit me.What the heck?"Oh gosh!" I cried out in pain as I fell to the ground. I turned to the prince who's now looking down at me. I trembled, I tried so hard to prevent my eyes from welling. I felt like I just failed, I felt like I did a very crucial mistake at such early game, and had not because of the Prince, I would have been injured so bad. The Prince saved me once again.Oh ghad! I really need to get myself together. But what can I do? I am fully awake, it's just that, I cannot catch up with their pace this instant. They trained their whole lives for this while I was just brought to be a bait, and here I am now, facing the consequences of being stupid. I know I can

From my normal vision my eyes went to the upper part of the cave tunnel."A STONE!" I shout. We stopped at once. It’s amethyst, the color is freaking amethyst — incant be mistaken, I know it belongs to the gemstones with high scores."Let's get it!" Nathalia shouted, just as she jumped to pick it up, the ground we were standing on cracked and the rocks in the tunnel fell."The cave is about to collapse we need to get out!" Corinthians shouted."But the stone!""Run fast!"I didn't know what to do, so I just ran out of the cave so as not to be trapped inside. Corinthians and Greyson were out, I was about to go out but I turned to Nathalia who was still looking for the gem."Nathalia stop it! Let's go!" I yelled.When she didn’t listen to me, I turned to her and tried to pull her away."Let's go..." I shouted."Let go witch! I can already see the gem!" She shouted.I can see it too. But the rocks kept falling on the entrance of the cave, if we could not get out immediately we would be t
