“A p-portal?” Alex asked confused.
What did a portal have to do in the discussion they were having?
“Angela and the bandits have been training to enter a portal for two days.” Actually two weeks. “You are ready to enter a portal.”
“A portal to where?” Alex asked anxiously.
He was tired of standing. He needed to rest his body and get some sleep too but he was confused for a moment. When he was in the tower it was late afternoon and when he got to Persimmon it was late at night.
“Remember, a day in Persimmon is a week in the real world. There will also be a time difference. You need to rest. Let me take you to your room.”
“But what about my question?” He was eager to know.
“I will answer it on the way.” Leila began to move and Alex followed. “Did your mother tell you why she wanted to kill them?”
He didn't rem
It was a young boy of about fifteen with golden blonde hair, green eyes, spotless skin, and on top of it all. He was very good looking.Angela’s eyes sparkled as soon as she set her eyes on him.The first thing and person Alex set his eyes on were her. The angel he had wanted to save. The angel he sacrificed so much for. She was here…right in front of him.It was a dream come true. He was speechless and completely out of words. She was beautiful.The picture took most of her beauty away. The black and white image he saw of her was different from the girl in his front.She had beautiful blue eyes that could make him bow before her. Her smile was contagious. Her platinum blonde hair was priceless. Everything about her was magnificent.She was the most beautiful thing he had ever set his eyes on. No other lady—not even his fake-made mother that had used magic to cover up the true ugliness inside
They didn’t need Leila to tell them to follow her before they did. They followed her outside and were stroke with a terrible cold.This reminded Angela of yesterday. They could have died and it was her fault. She swept the thought off of her mind. This was the time to get to a new world, not let the past haunt her.It was time for a new revelation.“We have been waiting for this day for a very long time, now it has come. We have trained…”“We?” Kale said huffing.“…as I was saying.” Leila gave her a quick glare. “We have trained hard for today and now it is time to reap the fruit of our labor.”“Our?”Kale needed to stop doing that. Leila ignored her and moved on.“Are you all ready?” Leila’s voice was low and smooth.Her short speech was satisfying. Not too long and not too short.
“What is the prophecy saying?” Octavia whispered angrily.“It says your son whom we sent on the mission to save Prestoria will betray us. When he gets there, something might happen that will make him change his mind. The brainwashing affected him but it is also possible that…”“I have heard enough!” The Queen clenched her fists and held the banister of the staircase tighter. “So it means Angela is still alive and she is with my son. I will kill her.”***“Angela…Angela.”The whispers shook her out of her sleep. She found it hard to raise her eyelids but placed all her power on it and saw Miles. The first person she saw was her handsome Miles, then her loveable prince charming, Alex, then Justin and Kale.She rubbed her eyes to see the background. What she saw was shocking.Jesus H. Christ. No way, this was a whole different world. Was this what
Magic was their only reasonable explanation and there was nothing any of them could do to change it.She wondered how the bulb worked. What if they wanted to turn it off?Her question was answered when Justin flipped a switch. He had been looking at it for a while but found the courage to flip it. That must be the switch for the bulb.The bulb was okay but the standing fan was scaring her. What if it walked closer to them and ate them up. She gulped at the thought of that. She would stay far away from it.There were two bunk beds and a single bed at a corner. She went to the single bed. She was scared to stay on the bunk beds, especially the top one. How can there be a bed on top of another?That was bonkers.Kale didn’t hesitate. She climbed up to the top of one of the bunker beds and began jumping on it.“I will not do that if I were you,” Josh warned.She stop
“I can get up by myself. Thank you very much. In our world we are very gentle and we do not scream.” He huffed, going back into the kitchen.Kale didn’t care. She sat on a chair and rubbed her hands in preparation for a delicious meal.The others did so and sat on the chairs, looking at their covered plates. There was water beside them and a folded napkin placed at the top of each glass cup. The setting was different from the normal one she knew.There was a neatly ironed table cloth on the table. The plates, cups, and food were placed on the table cloth, not directly on the table.There was a vase of lilies placed in the middle of the table. The nice smell of them filled the air. Everything about the table setting was different but yet nice.Josh walked back to the dining room and cleaned up the broken plates. When he was finished, he joined them on the table.Josh gave Kale a scornful look be
“Where are my sleeves?”“Where did the mustache come from?”“Why do we have to wear matching shoes?”“Were you trying to kill me by giving me those shoes of death?”“Enough!” Josh’s scream made them stop talking. They were driving him crazy. “They are here and we are leaving now whether dressed or not dressed.”He was about to walk away but Kale stopped him.“Why not show us the way this time?” Kale said eyeing him.“Sure,” he answered giving her a fake but wicked smile.He led them out of the room. They were going in a different direction from the dining room. They wondered where he was leading them too.Angela didn’t like the pants she was wearing. They were tight but they were amazing on her and she knew it.Miles and Alex had been admiring her from the moment she put them on
A princess? That was expected since most of the princesses he knew were beautiful. He didn’t know any princesses but his daughter was his little princess and she was the cutest thing ever.“My kingdom was destroyed and I need to save it but first we have to go into the spirit world and talk to the man that was able to put a spell on it, so I can have the chance to save it.”“Really?”“Yes and some people are trying to kill us!” Kale said blowing a big bubble that got stuck on her face. She had no idea how she did that but it was great. “Awesome!” she said licking the stuck chewing gum from her face.“Sounds like you guys are going on a real adventure.”Why was he calling them guys? They weren’t all guys. At least Kale and Angela were girls. Everyone in the room could see that.“More like a death sentence.” Miles scoffed.“
She would do just that and she would get her son back from the monster.She recalled when she found him. Orphanages from around the world were showing her different babies and children younger than a year old. She wanted a son to make her look more befitting to be a Queen.She didn’t like the way people underestimated her but if she had a son, it would make things better.For three good days, she had not seen any young child or baby fit enough to mold into what she knew as—perfection.None of them were good enough for her.Some women were even handing over their own babies because she would pay a large amount of money to the owner of any baby she picked.Still, none satisfied her until she saw one. He was crawling out of the city. That was against the laws so they arrested the baby.Octavia didn’t want to waste time beheading the baby but when she saw his, she knew he was the
