"It's starting to get colder," Donovan said as he trembled a little bit.

Leona nodded, her eyes lingering over towards the window. The seasons were beginning to change and that meant holiday season would be starting soon.

That, unfortunately, also meant midterm season.

The day didn't disappear from her mind, in fact everything was still vivid. The way Jaiden smiled at her, laughed with her, talked to her.

He's been like that a lot lately, Leona thought as a slight blush appeared on her face.

"Oh, you got a crush or something?" Khloe asked with a raised eyebrow during lunch, almost making Leona choke on her cold spaghetti.

"N-no! I was just thinking about something is all." Leona mumbled before quickly changing the subject.

"Anyway, we have to start studying soon for the midterms right?"

Khloe gasped, her face of amusement towards Leona's embarrassment turning into a face of panic.

"I feel like I haven't been paying attention all year."

Leona chuckled at Khloe's antics throughout the p

    "What's Atlantis?" Donovan asked, a face of confusion equally plastered on both his face and Khloe's."W-What? You know, Atlantis? We've been researching it for a while now.""Doesn't ring a bell to me..." Khloe mumbled, looking at Leona with concern in her eyes."I don't remember but if you ask me to research something for you then I'll be happy to do so!" Donovan exclaimed with a grin."Guys, don't you remember? Atlantis, the mythical kingdom? Khloe, our incident at Oak Lake? The... music box?"As if to remind them, Leona turned the music box on and let its tune play. Khloe and Donovan's eyes widened as they looked from Leona to the music box."Right, right, Atlantis! Wait but I could've sworn I was just reading up on it a moment ago after my exams."Donovan proceeded to pull out a book from his bag, showing the front cover which said, "Mythical Legends.""Well I actually hummed the tune of Leona's music box whenever I lost focus while studying!" Khloe said proudly before looking do

    "Have you ever.... been confessed to?" Jaiden asked, and for a moment, time was at a halt.Leona hadn't really noticed, but for some reason she could feel her hopes rising up within her.Is he confessing to me right now? No, he's just asking a question, it's probably not like that."Ah, nevermind, that was probably a weird question to ask," Jaiden muttered as he turned around with embarrassment. Leona could suddenly feel her heart drop to her chest, a bit taken aback by how disappointed she felt.Nevermind. I guess he isn't curious about it anymore. But should I still answer?Leona rose up from the bench and nodded as Jaiden offered to walk her back to the auditorium.Hopefully, Lucy notices me this time.Once they made it back to the auditorium doors, Leona turned around and looked at Jaiden with a small smile on her face. For some reason, all her moments with him began to flash back in her mind; from the time they first met to their interactions during the field trip.It's crazy how

    The seven seas battled against each other as the waves roared like thunder at a boat crashing down from the top of waves. Men on that boat were shouting orders as they scurried around like mice."Sir, there's a big wave coming about 50 feet tall, I strictly recommend we turn tail," a rather young lad of 20 years said to his captain mildly in the control room."No, Matthew. We must go on." the captain declined bravely.Matthew Leverton had just graduated from University only 3 years ago. He had charming, shaggy, or rather messy, neck-length hair, dusty gold like the beach during a sunset, and his eyes were brown like the fresh maple leaves of a maple tree. Despite the soft, gentle look, Matthew preferred adventure and exploration; going on missions, and so he was in the midst of one, right in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, though he would miss his mother and his neighbour who lived right next door: June Calloway, who also happened to be his closest friend in the same University he h

    Tossing her phone onto the bed, a young girl of 20 years ambled out of her room and plopped on to the sofa in the living room. It was really peaceful for her- almost- for her peace was rudely disturbed by a voice that called out shrilly, "June! Where's my pen?"A six year- old stomped like an elephant into the living room and glared at her sister."What is it now?" June groaned as she turned to her sister, her ponytail swayed to a side wildly as she turned to her sister, Jacie.June Calloway looked extremely beautiful with brown eyes which matched her dark brown hair, every boy would've fallen for her at the first glance. Her sister, Jacie Calloway, on the other hand, looked as though she could fight a whole pack of lions single-handedly, but most of the time, she seemed pretty helpful and encouraging."My pen!" she demanded."I don't know, okay? I didn't take it!" June snapped, "Besides, that pen looks really bizarre! Is it even a plane or a dinosaur?""No it's not! It was given by t

    Hearing the soft, long groaning of boredom and exhaustion from June, Matthew gulped as he peered into the horizons beyond the coastal line. He forgot how it was like to feel the breeze, brushing his hair back, the fresh smell filling the air as he took a deep breath. The next moment he found himself miles away from the equal rows of piers, all he saw now was water; high above water.The ship moved at a moderate speed as he ambled over to the other side of the ship to settle down next to June, who was resting her head on her hand, frowning into the distance."You forgot what it's like," Matthew began. June didn't answer. He continued, "I also forgot what it's like to be out here. In the breeze, watching the sun peaceful set down to the horizon."Hearing the last few words June looked up, she looked from Matthew then to the sun, which was getting ready to make its way down to the horizon as Matthew had said."Being out in the seas is way more fun than to hang around in the city."

    Opening his eyes, Matthew found himself covered in sand. He sat bolt up, spitting out sand from his mouth. Dazed, he looked around. There was no sign of June, Alexander, or any of the men."June! Alexander?! Anyone!" he yelled. The only reply was the soft wind as the waves pushed themselves off the shore back into the ocean repeatedly. Matthew squinted at those waves, he noticed a slight movement. Heart thumping fast with hope, he stumbled clumsily to his feet and ran towards where he saw the movement."June!" he breathed as he turned June around, who was laying on her stomach. Staring at her silent face, Matthew thought of doing CPR, but his worried thoughts made him feel too weird to even rest his hands on her chest. With his hopes going higher and higher, Matthew pressed an ear against June's chest. Nothing.She isn't breathing, what now? Matthew thought urgently. Having no choice, he pressed his hands on top of each other, his fingers dug in between the fingers of the hand below a

    Opening his eyes, Alexander found himself in a little hut. The roof was built out of straw and the door in front of him was made out of bamboo. He curiously sat up and shook his head till he got back to Earth."Where on Earth am I?" he asked himself grumpily. Just then a door opened and a figure walked in. A man dressed in thick animal-skin clothing was in sight."Who are you and why did you bring me here?" Alexander demanded. The man stepped closer and closer to him. Alexander gulped, doubting his chance of living...Cutting through the bushes, Matthew and June went all over the place looking for Alexander."Alexander? Alexander! Alexander, where are you?"' Alexander! Come on, if you're hiding this isn't funny! '"Alexander!- June where is he?""I don't know." June said, looking as though she was tempted to give up."It's almost nightfall. We'll have to work a little faster." Matthew said, looking at the sea which was now a shade of orange. They continued searching: looking behind t

    Matthew tried really hard to ignore the cursing from Alexander as he made his way through the bushes."Okay," he turned to Alexander who abruptly stopped his muttering. Matthew continued, "make sure you act normal. Try to blend in with the others- okay?""Yeah yeah alright whatever let's just get this done and over with." Alexander said grumpily and continued his muttering as he stepped into the clearing.Matthew and Alexander were wearing animal skins as disguise and blend in. Matthew decided he should look for June, so he disguised himself as much as he can. Now he looked completely unrecognisable as his face was entirely covered in some stuff he had puffed onto his face and his head was covered buy a round band of leaves and he was covered in bear skin. He drew fake scars on his arms and one long one across his right eye. He practiced changing his voice so the leader wouldn't recognise him by voice. He also went to a river nearby to change his hairstyle. When Matthew returned to th

    As Matthew lay there in the silent hut, the caretaker ambled about, digging through loads of ingredients. June sat there, staring at Matthew. The hut was warm and was bathed in light; the light was so strong it managed to travel straight through the walls of the med hut, flooding it to the brim. June started to feel a little tired as she let put a yawn. She slowly settled herself down to her side next to Matthew. She felt a little awkward though.As haven't been mentioned, Matthew had to be bandaged, so his shirt and jacket had to be removed, and now the lower half of his upper body was bandaged, but June didn't care, she simply lay there. As she waited patiently for herself to fall asleep, she stared at Matthew, hoping to see those dazzling eyes she had been hoping to see. Turning to her back, June was now staring at the blank ceiling. There were just so many thoughts in her head, like how Suka was doing, whether Atlantis would be protected, if they would even win. Just as she was ab

    As the sails drew nearer and nearer towards the shore of Satilant Island, Matthew raced past the trees as June followed. He ran back to the tree with the carved symbols."This could be leading us to Atlantis. Look! There's another tree with the symbol," Matthew said as he followed. There was a trail of trees with the symbols carved on them, leading the two all the way to the other side of the island. They stopped by a tree, which was the last one with the symbol; beyond that was just a huge stone wall."What now?" June asked."There should be a gap somewhere where we could put the tooth." Matthew said as he dragged his hand across the wall, trying to feel a gap. Suddenly he felt an edge. He looked at where his hand was at. There was a gap, shaped of a tooth."June! Look! This is it!" Matthew gasped excitedly. In a hurry, he pushed the tooth into the gap. Nothing. He pressed against the tooth. It seemed like a button, for a huge hole appeared beneath the two; and the next moment they w

    As the villagers packed the entire village with meat and vegetables everywhere, Matthew and June sat in Suka's house, questioning him.“...then how did you get that?” Matthew pointed at the tooth-like souvenir with the symbol of water."This, Matthew."Suka placed the necklace in Matthew's hand."Is the only key to open what covers Atlantis. It's a secret door, no one knows about it except me and my tribe. The door will lead to a very secret part of the island which is highly protected. Look for the missing hole which will fit this key perfectly."Matthew stared at the tooth with great interest. He looked up," Wait- you're saying I can keep it?"Suka nodded."I need a break from being the guardian of this secret location, might as well step down and pass it on."June gasped with excitement as she hugged Matthew's left arm tightly. He looked at her and smiled; he looked back at Suka."Thank you," he said warmly yet gratefully. Suka nodded.Outside the hut, Matthew and June joined the f

    Matthew, Alexander and June set a campfire by the shores, but they made sure it wasn't too near to the water. They thought that if they rested near water, they'll somehow end up in the next level of finding Atlantis.The waves gently brushed against the sand. June lay peacefully sleeping on a huge leaf. Matthew lay beside her, whereas Alexander would rather sleep on his own than sleep on the same leaf with gits.Matthew still lay wide awake, resting his head on his hands, staring into the starry sky. All he could do was just lay there and do nothing until he falls asleep. June tossed to the other direction facing him. Matthew knew that she was probably still awake."June? " he whispered. June opened her eyes and looked at Matthew, dazed."Is anything wrong?" June asked."No," Matthew sighed, "I was just wonder if you were awake.""Yeah I'm awake." June said as she sat up; Matthew sat up too."I was wondering, well—if you'd like to take a stroll around the island since we have nothing
