Awakening of the Darkness's Heirs 10
"Time for what?" asked Raven, trying to reach him."Time for you to remember who you really are," Simon replied, his eyes blazing with an intensity she'd never seen before. "And, when you're ready, I'll be back to take you home."With those words, Simon's image vanished, and Raven awoke with a heart full of fear, but also curiosity.All the questions that had been haunting her began to press for answers, and she knew that no matter what, Raven could no longer run from the truth of who she was.And, deep in her heart, Raven felt that night was the beginning of a journey into the darkness she had been avoiding.That night, after the anxiety continued to haunt her, Raven decided to take a walk on campus.Raven chose to walk alone even though Meredith offered to accompany her to spend the night. The blonde-haired girl walked outside, down the hallway around her room to the dormitory courtyard. Under the moonlight, her steps echoed in the deserted dormitory hallways. Suddenly, she felt l

The next morning, Raven woke up with a heavy feeling in her chest. The dreams that had been plaguing her felt more and more real, as if the line between dream and reality was starting to fade.However, that morning she was determined to go about her day as an ordinary college student, without the shadows of the past demanding more and more answers and making her head hurt more and more as she tried to remember everything. After showering and getting dressed, she walked out of her room with slightly hesitant steps. Meredith, her cheerful roommate, was already waiting for her outside shaking a lunchbox in her hand."Good morning, sleepyhead!" greeted Meredith in a cheerful tone. "I even had time to get this for your breakfast before you woke up. I know, you must have overslept again, right?"Raven smiled embarrassedly, then accepted the lunchbox full of toast and fruit. "Thanks, Mer. You always know when I need a saviour.""Yeah, yeah. I know that." Meredith replied with an artificiall

In the days that followed, Raven tried to live her life like a normal student - greeting every activity with enthusiasm and enjoying her time with Meredith and her friends. That morning, Raven and Meredith sat on a bench in the campus park, enjoying the warm morning sun. Both of them were busy eating the chocolate muffins they bought at the cafeteria."I don't understand why professors like to make impromptu quizzes," Meredith grumbled, munching on her muffin. "Look, I didn't even have time to eat breakfast. I'm told to think about it in the morning!"Raven giggled. "That's practice too, Mer. You're still answering anyway, even if it's just the original?"Meredith glared. "Of course! It's a good thing I'm sitting next to you-at least I can follow your confident gaze for answers."The two of them laughed so hard that it attracted the attention of some students sitting nearby. Raven enjoyed little moments like this, away from the hustle and bustle and tension of her strange dreams.No

In the days that followed, Raven and her friends became more and more immersed in Professor Lorry's assignment.They collected various materials for their research project, from interviews to analyses of books that inevitably required them to return to the haunted library.Every day, the atmosphere was full of anticipation. Raven and Meredith were already feeling the nerves building-the day of the project presentation was fast approaching.That morning, Raven and Meredith sat in class, each holding a stack of notes. Lucas and Ben arrived with hurried steps and tense faces. "Hey, I heard Professor Lorry is going to give us a mean grade if we can't answer all the questions," Lucas said as he sat next to Raven.The young man's face looked panicked, it was only natural for Lucas to feel that way since their class was almost all upperclassmen repeating Professor Lorry's course just because they couldn't answer the killer lecturer's questions. Raven bit her lip, unable to hide her worry.

The next few days were filled with various activities for Raven, Meredith, Ben, Lucas, and Maya. They began to grow closer as they had to get together frequently to complete additional assignments from Professor Lorry. Between the stacks of ancient books, spontaneous jokes, and tense moments while compiling research, they found a rhythm and cohesiveness that made the days feel lighter.That afternoon, they decided to meet at a small café near campus after class. The cool air made the café feel cosy. They sat in a corner, ordering coffee and chocolate cake to get rid of their sleepiness after a long lecture."Phew, finally got out of the most boring class. My eyes are so sleepy from earlier." Ben stretched his body that felt so tired. "Hmm, yes. I'm the same, I don't know why this course feels so boring." Meredith replied to Ben's words, "It's even more fun when we do the project from Professor Lorry," she continued."You're right, Mer. But I really didn't expect this project to be

"Alright, looks like we've got enough information," Lucas said quickly, trying to sound brave. "Let's get out before we get caught."Quickly, they returned to the bookshelves that now blocked off the secret passage. After reorganising everything, they took a small run out of the library, their nervous laughter filling the night air.When they arrived outside, they laughed loudly, releasing all the tension that had been building up. Maya looked at them with a relieved smile. "Okay, this is crazy. But I'll never forget this night for the rest of my life."Raven smiled, feeling such a strong sense of togetherness between them. With these friends of hers, even the most mysterious and terrifying journeys seemed easier to traverse."If we can face all this, we can definitely conquer Professor Lorry too, right?" Ben said with a laugh.They all laughed in agreement, promising to return to class with the most complete report and ready to face all questions from Professor Lorry.That night, fu

As time goes by, the excitement of life on campus for Raven, Meredith, Ben, Lucas and Maya never wanes.They found new ways to liven things up, including pranks that only the five of them knew about.Every weekend felt like an opportunity for adventure and freedom together.One Friday night, they gathered in the small park near the dormitory, looking for ideas for new activities.Ben suddenly leaned against a tree and chuckled, "We need something more exciting than just a party."Meredith raised an eyebrow, curious. "Like what, Ben?"Ben smiled mischievously. "Why don't we play hide-and-seek at midnight in the faculty building? They say there's a floor that never opens because... there's something weird there."Raven laughed outright. "Gosh, that's just a story to scare the new kids."Lucas, however, seemed interested. "Come on, this should be fun! Hide and seek in the faculty building at 12pm? I'm ready!"Finally, with unstoppable laughter, they decided to do it. As the night wore on

The lives of Raven, Meredith, Ben, Lucas and Maya continue to be colourful. Each day is filled with laughter, jokes, and the occasional tension that comes from new challenges on campus.One of the most thrilling moments they face is when they have to complete a big assignment for Professor Lorry - a middle-aged man who is notoriously strict and often makes students nervous just by looking at them.The assignment this time was a research project that they had to present in front of the class. The topic was quite complex, and they had to spend weeks in the library, digging up information and preparing solid presentation materials. The five of them often stay up late into the night to make sure everything is perfect, with Lucas in charge of ensuring interesting supplementary materials, Ben designing the presentation slides, and Maya looking over the data they've collected.One afternoon in the library, Meredith rested her head on the table and sighed. "Why does Professor Lorry always ch

Then he raised his hand.In an instant, the air in the room shook with tremendous force.Adrian and Sister Helena felt as if gravity had changed.Blue light gathered in Professor Valtorius' hand.Then-with a swift movement-he pointed his palm towards the creature!"EXURO!"A blast of blue energy shot towards the creature.PeopleBLAARRR!The creature screamed in pain, its body was thrown backwards, hitting the wall.Black smoke billowed from its body.However, before the attack could completely destroy it, the creature moved.With incredible speed, it darted out of the room!Leaving only the faint sound of laughter that echoed in the night.After the attack, it was quiet again.Silence fell over the clinic.Adrian was still breathing heavily, while Sister Helena continued to clutch her pendant with trembling hands.Professor Valtorius took a deep breath.Then he turned to Meredith who was still unconscious.His eyes narrowed."This is just the beginning."Sister Helena nodded fearfully

But before he could react further-the shadow behind him suddenly changed shape.Entwined like a mist... then vanished.Beltharion frowned. "That thing is playing with us..."On the west side, Thalvador Grimshade stood atop the Lorrywood tower, watching over the area below.From above, the campus looked like a maze filled with darkness.The night breeze was strong, but something in the air felt... heavy.She frowned. The sky was getting blacker.Then... in the distance... Thalvador saw something moving on the roof of the dormitory building.A black figure. Hovering.Thalvador wasted no time. He darted down from the tower, landed lightly on the ground and immediately headed in the direction of the figure.But as soon as he arrived-there was only a trail of shadows that began to disappear.And on the dormitory wall, a strange red symbol was carved.Thalvador's eyes narrowed."This is getting wors

The room was filled with serious conversations about the Meredith incident."This is... not the first time," Thalvador said in a deep voice. "And I suspect it still has something to do with the incident five years ago."Beltharion nodded in agreement. "If it is indeed the same force we face, then we must act quickly before more victims fall."Magnus looked at Valtorius. "What are you going to do?"Valtorius took a deep breath, about to answer.However-the meeting room door suddenly slammed loudly.CRACK!The five university heads turned their heads in alarm.Adrian stood in the doorway with a pale face and shortness of breath.His robes were rumpled, sweat soaked his forehead, and his eyes were full of panic."What are you doing here?" Malveric asked coldly.

Under the moonlight sneaking through the glass window, Meredith stood in the centre of the hallway with a terrified face. The girl stepped back slowly, her body trembling violently. Her mouth was slightly open, as if she wanted to scream... but no sound came out. Sister Helena felt a chill creeping over her skin. "Meredith?" her voice was low, but filled with worry. Adrian tried to get closer, but before he could go any further, their eyes caught something that took their breath away. At the end of the hallway, a black, ragged creature stood still, watching Meredith. The creature was taller than an ordinary human, with a body as emaciated as a living skull. Its clothes were torn and dirty, as if they had rotted with time. But the most terrifying thing was its face. It had no eyes, just two deep, pitch-black empty holes. Its mouth was torn down to the cheeks, forming a hideous smile full of bloodied pointy teeth. Adrian's body stiffened. His heart raced. Meredith

Sister Helena nodded. "Mr Adrian and I saw it ourselves."Several other lecturers looked at each other, their expressions a mixture of disbelief and fear. Lecturer Anita, who was known to be the most sceptical, leaned back in her chair and crossed her arms. "We're talking about something nonsensical here. We should be thinking of a logical explanation. Maybe Meredith had a sleep disorder-like sleep paralysis?" "Sleep paralysis doesn't make someone float in the air, Mrs Anita," Mr Adrian replied coldly. Lecturer Llyod, who had been silent, finally spoke up. "Are you saying that last night there was... a figure watching from outside the window?" Sister Helena gulped. "I didn't see it directly. But... I felt it." Llyod nodded slowly, his expression growing serious. "I don't like this," he muttered. "Especially if there's any resemblance to the case five years ago." The other lecturers fell silent. Mr. Wira rubbed his face. "We can't let this develop any further. If somethi

It was getting late, but neither Sister Helena nor Mr Adrian showed any sign of wanting to stop. They were now sitting in the clinic's administration room, piles of incident reports and student records scattered across the table. "So," Sister Helena said with a sigh, "you're sure those footprints came from someone who was in the garden before Meredith was found?" Mr Adrian nodded, his hands pressing against his temples. "Yes. The footprints are bigger than Meredith's, and too deep. Someone stood there for a long time. And the direction of the tracks is towards the library." Sister Helena bit her lip. "And Raven was in the library that night..." "True," Mr Adrian leaned back in his chair. "But what puzzles me are Meredith's words before she fainted-'She was there... but not her.' What does that mean?" Sister Helena shook her head slowly. "Maybe... something 'other' took Raven's form?" The atmosphere in the room was suddenly colder. Mr Adrian straightened up. "You think th

Sister Helena stared intently at the pale face of Meredith who had regained consciousness. Beside her, the school guards still stood with questioning expressions.Meredith's last words echoed in their heads."Raven."Sister Helena let out a long breath, trying to think clearly."How much do you know about that child?" she asked the school guard.The man shook his head. "Not much. But if she's Meredith's roommate, then they're pretty close, right?"Sister Helena tapped her fingers on the table. "Could be. Or it could be the other way round."Her tone of voice made the custodian frown. "What do you mean?"Sister Helena looked straight into the man's eyes."We don't know for sure what happened to Meredith, but she mentioned Raven's name before passing out. That could mean two things-she asked for Raven, or she accused Raven."The school guard swallowed."And given her condition..." Sister Helena continued in a

The days at Lorywood Campus are still full of colour. The festival continues, and the ball is just days away. There seemed to be no room for fear. On the centre court, the dodgeball game is getting more and more exciting. Cheers erupted, fuelling the spirits of those competing.Jeremy performed another amazing manoeuvre, dodging the ball with an almost impossible leap. "Jeremy! I swear, you're not human!" shouted Lucas from the stands. Jeremy just laughed smugly. "Of course not. I'm superhuman." Meredith, who was sitting with Maya and Ben, just shook her head with a smile. On the other side, the prom committee was busy with the final preparations. The main hall had been decorated with dim lights, and in the music room, rehearsals were going on. Everything was peaceful. It was almost like a little paradise. However, amidst all the excitement, something felt... odd. Something that could only be sensed by those who were sensitive enough. Meredith let out a long sigh as sh

The Lorywood campus seems to have turned into a different place in the past few days.Whereas before the atmosphere on campus was tense and mysterious, now all the students are busy enjoying all the excitement.The sports field continues to be filled with cheers, the campus park has become an impromptu picnic spot, and in the main hall, the organisers have started arranging the decorations for the dance party that will be held soon.For the first time in a long time, everyone forgot their fears."It smells so good!" Maya almost jumped for joy as she approached one of the food stalls at the small festival being held in the centre court of the campus.The stalls were lined up neatly, selling various foods from different countries. There were Japanese takoyaki, American hotdogs, Korean kimbap, and Indonesian speciality fried rice
