Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE: THE HERDINGQueen Hayley was riding a unicorn, and so did her daughter Princess Aldea. The latter hasn't stopped crying ever since Carmichael chose the human Julia as hisFirstMate. He dared insult the entire Fae Faction, and he's going to get what he deserves tonight. There was something wrong with the whole forest, for the portal they managed to construct sent them pretty far from where they intended to go. As steadily and as calmly as they could, they started the procession. They were halfway to the Garrison when she detected three faint presences hovering above them. She found two boys and a girl perched up the trees when she looked up.

Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTY: AND THE PLAN ISThe Fae will soon be arriving from the East, and the Darken will be taking what they came for.The Dimensians and the Association want the Talisman and complete control of the Lower Realm. Dylan has this nagging feeling that the Welkins are scheming, and they are out there waiting. This is going to be a long night, he thought. Dylan rounded up every one of his friends so they could start brainstorming about what to do with their current predicament. He didn't know that everything would escalate this quickly. "I'm starving," said Titan, and the sound of his rumbling stomach reverberated inside the conference hall. He received a couple of glares from the people around him. "What?! I bet all of you are hungry too!" "How

Chapter: CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE: GOODBYESWisteria was pacing inside her room, thinking of what she saw inside Osprey's head. She was about to devour every single memory he had when suddenly, something woke the boy up from his sleep. How fortunate he was to be spared from her power. Still, it doesn't change the fact that she saw the image of the talisman in his head. Selena Comia, the Blitzkrieg blessed human, finished making it, yet she dutifully gave it to someone else. The reason why was the abrupt return of his beloved brother. She squirmed in exasperation. The glass windows shattered to pieces. Her husband smiled at her outburst. No matter what she does, he'd still find her amusing. Bryna stormed inside the room, face

Chapter: CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT: IN DISARRAYGustavan opened his eyes and found himself chained on his bed. He tugged at it forcefully and winced in pain. The pain meant he's not dreaming, so this isn't the work of the well-regarded Queen of Dreams, Ruler of Dimensia, Queen Wisteria. He looked around and knew well that this wasn't the work of the Darken Great Leader Carmichael, who is also known as the King of all Beasts and Monsters. Nor is it the scheming of the virtuous Clans of the Association of Faith Healers and Witches. The only creatures capable of catching him so quickly are those who can travel through space, the Fae. They regard themselves as magical Porters and Gatekeepers. Now, why they would do this, Gustavan wondered. The first reason would be as a hostage against the human race. Among all the faction

Chapter: CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN: WELKIN KINGDOM"I sent the winged-beasts to Laguna and the Welkins to Cavite," said Azalea. "If you're planning something, you may as well do it now. I witnessed those Welkins teleport from the Welkin Kingdom to Earth using a portal they erected. They could be back any minute now." "You were brought to the Welkin Kingdom?!" Julia asked, awed. "How was it? Is it nice there?!" Azalea took a step back away from her. It didn't escape their notice that she seems to be avoiding Julia and the fact that those Welkins practically returned her? A lot has happened to Azalea in the few weeks of her disappearance, and everyone is dying to know what those are. "Selena---"Dylan started only to be cut off.

Chapter: CHAPTER TWENTY SIX: HERE THEY COMESelena stood in the middle of a vast field with Julia, Zach, and Titan. The breeze may be relaxing, but the sun was scorching hot. She can see the humidity of the weather by merely looking at her company's faces. Unlike them, she' doesn't feel the heat. They'll need the heat to strengthen their concentration. "Gloom is controlled anger," said Selena. The three of them waited for further explanation, but a whole fat minute passed by, and she spoke no more. That was it. When the realization hit them, they exhibited different reactions. Julia suddenly whined and thrashed in disbelief. Titan's jaw dropped in disappointment. &n

Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTY-FIVE: THE COLONELThe next day, I woke up and found a note on the bedside table saying, 'Be right back. I had another bone scan. They said my hands were mending faster than expected. They commented about the drugs doing better than expected. They had me escorted back to the room. Fran gave me a visit again, brought the usual tray and food. She helped me eat, and although it didn't taste as pleasant as the food from the canteen or the food from the underground floor, I ate with vigor. I need my energy back as fast as I can. I can feelit. I know something's brewing out there, and I'd bet my toes this time that it has something to do with the captain. I did squats until my legs cave in.&n

Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTY-FOUR: FINDING OUTI opened my eyes and turned to the clock on the bedside table. I wasn't surprised to find myself insidemyinfirmary room. My body's a stiff as stone. I must've slept for a long while now. I stood up and stared at my hands. Only my thumbs survived the beating. I couldn't help but feel sorry for my little fingers wrapped thoroughly with bandages. Fran entered the room holding a tray topped with a water bottle, a couple of medicine, and a kettle. There was food, too. I smiled at her, and she just sighed. She gave me three tablets of different-looking capsules. I took it and gulped it down with water. &nb

Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTY-THREE: FEELING CRUSHEDBee became the highlight of my life, diligently helping me avoid detentions. During the past few days, the class managed to escape detentions with her wits, thus making my wounds heal in peace. One of these days, I'm going to thank her. Still, Lieutenant Margaery is nowhere to be seen, twice the sergeant had personally gone to me for information, and twice I told him I didn't know where she was. We were in the middle of Flight Lessons when Victor got pissed off and attacked Viper, his co-pilot. Roses stood up to watch them brawl. Private Lowell found them rolling on the floor, kicking and punching. &n

Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTY-TWO: BEE AND AMETHYSTAnother month passed by, I managed to avoid seven detentions and survived three. The first one was when Eagle and Howler snuck into one of the warplanes parked outside. Bee punched me in the gut when I asked her to tell the superiors that I made them do it. The captain and I made a happy reunion and later drowned me. I had also started teaching Muscat some tricks like stay and fetch. Minnie said I was mistaking it for a dog, but I ignored her. As long as I can prove that it's atrainedcat, who would argue against it? It had also refused to eat cooked food, so I do covert burglary missions to the kitchen for Muscat's everyday food source at night. It's either piece of meat or a whole fish. Even Minnie doesn't know this. The second time was when Reaper, Barrel

Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE: MUSCATAs soon as I opened my eyes, I realized that my nap had taken longer than I had planned it to be. It's 4 o'clock in the morning, and my back feels like it's gonna cave in. The jelly pads must've worn out. I stood up and limped my way to the shower room to wash my face and brush my teeth. I turned around and lifted my clothes to check my back. The deep blue pads had faded to a whitish blue. I fought the urge to remove them and look at how grave my wounds were. I lost and succumbed to curiosity. "Awawaw," I muttered as I lifted the corner of the pads to take a look. I watched my reflection as the weight of the situation dawned on me. I looked at my half-exposed back with self-pity and

Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTY: SO WHIPPEDThe lieutenant found me wearing the suit from last week's detention. She stared at me for a second and sighed in defeat. I saluted. "They said a kid's up for detention," she told me. "I should've known it's you again." "I got really pissed off with my bomb," I told her. "Whose ass did you save this time?" she asked and turned right. "No one," I said. "It's all me." I looked at the room where I was electrocuted and frowned. "Where are you taking me?" "The captain must've heard that it was you again, so he changed the venue," the lieutenant looked pale. And angry. "He's not gonna cut my fingers, is he?" I asked and cleared my throat. &
