1: Second Life
Samantha Corey woke up grasping for air. Explosions, deaths... The scenes from her dream were terrifying. Truly a nightmare.  Mabuti nga sana kung masamang panaginip lang ito. Unfortunately, all of it happened in reality.  The explosions... Shereen's and Marco's death... Nanikip ang dibdib niya. It was all her fault. Her plan which she thought was placed properly turned out a plot twist for all of them. Nasa ganoon siyang sitwasyon ng magbukas ang pinto at bumungad doon ang isang babae. Nang makita siya nito ay agad itong namutla. "Emy... You're awake." For a moment, mukhang hindi alam ng babae kung anong gagawin niya. Was she going to rush towards her or go outside to inform others? In the end, she did the latter. "Everyone, gising na si Emy! She's awake!" Pagbalik niya ay marami na siyang kasama. Three adults, four teenagers and a kid. But none of them she coul

2: Hans Family
Emerald Hans.  That was the name of the owner of the body that she woke into. They said she got into accident habang naglalakad lakad sila ng mga step-siblings niya na sila Lory at Daniel sa may riverside. She fell into the water and unfortunately, didn't know how to swim. Bukod pa doon, the stream of water in the river at that time was very torrential. Nagtamo siya ng maraming sugat sa katawan at dalawang buwan din siyang nasa comatose state bago nagising. Samantha calculated that this Emy got into accident the same day as she died in the explosion. It must really be fate's work then when she woke up in this body. Hindi siya relihiyosong tao but this event of her life was totally mysterious. Anyway, habang nasa ospital siya ay inalam niya mula sa mga taong kasama niya kung anong klaseng tao si Emy. Turned out na isang buwan bago ang aksidente niya ay namatay ang kanyang Papa due to car accident naman. Emy

4: Grey City
There was a huge difference between Royal City and Grey City. Royal City was already considered as modernized in terms of their machineries and the likes. Probably because it had long been a democratic country despite its name. Bukod pa doon, they were trading different kind of products and most of the people living there were well-off.Kagaya na lang nila Emy. Her father owned a toy factory and it was profitting more than the expenses they had. And since student pa rin naman si Emy, Uncle Shin was the one running the business temporarily. May sarili din namang business si Uncle Shin pero from time to time, isinisingit niya ang toy factory nila Emy in his schedule just to make sure that it was still doing well.On the other hand, Grey City was totally different. Ganun din si Uncle Francis. Grey City still had an imperial government. It was being run by an Emperor. And one of the subordinates of this empire was the family of Uncle Francis.There were
