Kylo’s Point of View
Darkness made it hard to see the people who attacked us with arrows. We remained alert for their next move. The cool wind blew through my nape that I shivered as my hair stood up.
They said that our sense of hearing is stronger when our eyes couldn’t see. I have proven it when my head automatically turned when I felt something behind my head. Before I could make another move, Wagner’s hand caught the arrow that they struck straight to my face.
My eyeballs almost fell off when I faced the tip of the arrow an inch away from my eyes. I heaved a sigh before I dropped to the ground. Agitation trod softly within me as it took my breath away.
“We surrender. Please don’t harm us. We come in peace,” Wagner said.
He raised his hands and knelt down. The pirates followed what he did.
The night was mute, enough for me to hear our heavy breathing. There was tension while
After the ecstasy that I felt during the dance, Sojin led us to a door. It was an immense door made of stones with intricate patterns. It has a shimmering crystal at the center. As Sojin pressed the crystal button, the glow of the crystal flowed down to the patterns like a stream, but something colored it green. My eyes sparkled in amusement. The door creaked as it opened. A cozy room welcomed us. It surprised me to see something normal in their place. The tile of the floor was radiant. They placed a king-size bed at the center, and a lampshade to the left side. “Suit yourself. Tomorrow, you need to wake up early,” Sojin said. “Wait. May I ask why you have this kind of room?” I asked. “We built it especially for humans.” I gaze from side to side to look for the three pirates. “Where are the pirates?” “They escaped.” “What? I didn’t notice.” “They brought some emerald stones with them, which w
Wagner’s Point of ViewSojin’s emerald eyes pierced through mine like the eyes of a poisonous snake. He commanded the dinosaur to stop without looking at it. He can’t take his eyes off me, and it’s the most irritating thing I’ve seen. I told him to get out of my sight, but he heard nothing.I flung his arms and rolled over. My death stare wasn’t enough to shake him when I made it on top of him.“What a wild girl. I like that,” he said.That was it. I lost control and punched him in the face.“Pervert! Do you think you’re cool? Geez. You’re below average.”I stood up and wiped away the dirt on my clothes. The dinosaur growled like thunder. Its sound echoed through the dark tunnel. Without the shimmering emeralds splattered all over the path, it wouldn’t be nice to stay there.“What? Do you want to fight? Come on. I’m not a s
Sojin led me in the middle where there’s a wide space, and everyone looked at us with little emotion. Among them, Kylo has the brightest smile. Deep inside, I want to punch her until her teeth fall from her gums.I’ve been telling myself that in everyone’s eyes, I am a girl. I have to get used to this scenario when men approach me and flirt. Seriously, I’ve never been good at this. Maybe I have to learn from Sojin because someday, a goddess might come after me. I do not know how to flirt because women usually do the chasing, and I’m just chilling while ignoring their stupidity.
“Have you seen the library of congress?” I asked.“I haven’t.”“It’s the largest library in the world. But I guess this place is larger.”The ceiling of the library was so high that it almost reached my pride. Hanging from it were five gigantic, ancient chandeliers with the brightest light I’ve ever seen. Its diamonds glitter as light touches it.We stood up and walked toward its bookshelves. I traveled my fingers through its edges to feel its texture. The curio cabinet with glass doors screams elegance. Master artisan constructed the wood with an antique finish. It contains three drawers of various sizes and six shelves for storing books or display decorations. It has a stylish accent for each living room.
Without hesitation, I flipped the next page.Lights gleamed from the book as it opened so wide, stretching its pages. My fingers almost got burnt, so I immediately threw it away. It floated above us while glowing so bright. I raised my hand above my forehead to shade my eyes from its luminosity.Something suddenly came out from it. It was a colossal creature. It has the body of the largest black horse in the Guinness Book of the world record. His upper body was a human form with the face of a man. He has two gray horns and magnificent golden wings. He flew above us in a circular motion.Kylo fell to the floor while staring at the weird creature. Her jaw dropped and her face marked a terrifying sight.The creature landed on the floor and walked toward us. His
Kylo’s Point of View We followed Vitton and entered another door. My eyes glittered in awe when a marvelous sight welcomed us. They led us inside an enormous mansion. There’s a mansion underground? It’s unbelievable. Indeed, there’s more than what meets the eyes. There was a grand staircase at the center. The furniture was vintage, like they created the place a long time ago. The Demis were roaming around the area. They dressed them up like royalties. They gathered in circles and chatting, some were alone at the corner while reading a book. People were cleaning around, wiping the frames, and sweeping the floor. I smiled when I felt safe because somehow we were one of them. Vitton faced us and said, “Feel at home.”
I raised my hands as I surrendered.“What do you want from me?” she asked.I know she’s Niah.“Is this how you welcome your guests? With a knife on their back? Quite peculiar.”I have proven that I’m not a righteous judge of character.“I’m sorry to tell you I’m a better actor than you are. So, tell me. What do you want?” she said with agitation in her voice.“I never know that Demis are violent without a reason… Put that thing down while I’m still being nice.”I heard her sarcastic chu
Vad’s Point of View Pieces of chips crackled as the girls munched the fried potatoes and licked the cheese on the tip of their fingers. The crispy fried chips may look the same as what we have on Earth, but it tastes better. We circled all over the round table as they exchanged sassy conversation. They sat with their legs crossed and chin up like a well-groomed lady. It’s something that the current generation on Earth lacks.The girl with curly hair delightfully spoke.“Are you ready for tomorrow’s event?”The girl with round glasses smiled at her.“Yes. I’m so excited.”“I can’t wait to see the fascinating firewor
