This chapter is specially written for Roberta__Amber’s eyes darted towards the entrance and she struggled to move towards it. It felt like something heavy was hanging around her body, making it difficult for her to move and the next step she took, she saw herself going down with a slight thud. “Ah!” she sat up and groaned before her eyes lowered to look at what she was wearing. It was a pastel long ancient-like gown where several layers of clothes were added. She huffed in frustration and moved her eyes around the room, looking for her own clothes and she saw that there was particularly nothing to see in the room. She suddenly laughed, her body jerking and she cursed under her breath. “These people must be kidding me for real,” she said and packed the clothes with her hands before managing to stand. “After ruining my city, now they want to hold me captive and turn me into a princess I clearly am not. I wonder who the prince charming will be. Not that I mind if I stab him in the neck
Amber descended the stairs along with Jade, Bathilda and the vampire and they walked along the spaced corridor. She had requested to see her mother before anything else because she does not trust anyone of them and she wanted to make sure that her mother was okay.As they walked, their boots marching on the ground while she walked barefooted, she could not help but wonder how the world had suddenly changed. It was like waking up in a world she never knew where the kind of people different from her took her as someone important. It made her feel like she has an important mission to accomplish, but she was not ready, at least not yet. Everything still looks so strange to her and she will need a lot of time blending in before doing anything. At least, that was what she thought.On getting to the front of a room, Bathilda stopped and turned to face her. “Your mother is in this room,” she let her know.Amber quickly nodded and turned the handle but realizing it was locked from the inside,
It was only after she placed the sword on Aiden’s neck did she realize what she was doing, but there was no going back now.“What do you think you are doing?” Bathilda asked with a frown and made her way towards her but she was quick to stop when Amber glared at her with anger in her eyes.“Better to stay where you are,” Amber warned her and moved her eyes back to look at Aiden who stood there calmly, his expression barely changing and that was enough to make her furious. “What did you do to my mother?” she demanded and tilted her head to the side a bit. “Why does she not want to see me all of a sudden after we were brought here? Is all these...” she moved her hand and pointed them towards the crowd, “...your doings? I should have suspected you when you called Emma and I to your office the other day and said those things to us. It was after that day I started experiencing strange things and my mother changed. Tell me, what exactly are you planning? Thanks to you, the world is already
“It is my fault,” Kevin blamed himself as he stared up. “If I had convinced her to leave that boy alone and come with me, she would have been here now and safe.”Mirabel frown deeply and she shot at him, “You would have been dead if I did not save you. Remember I found this place and it is only because of me that the three of you are alive right now. I saved you and if you feel bad for Amber, you should have just stayed with her and die together. Every time, Amber this, Amber that. Did you even think about Harper?”Kevin turned his head to look at her and he asked, “Do you think she is still alive too?”Mirabel wanted to yell at him because to her, he is so dumb, but she kept her anger to herself and said instead, “I will go out and check if anyone is still alive,” and she turned around and walked out of the hiding angrily.Mirabel walked in the open space with a stick in her hand which she held firmly, it’s sharpened tip pointing ahead and her eyes scrutinized the whole place as she
“How do we get in?” Amber asked as the entrance has been blocked and there was no way to get inside. “I think I know how,” the vampire; Sage, said without looking at her and he took up to the sky, his wings spreading out. He flew towards the window, above the lower class and he bent one of his wings in a bow before flapping it against the window which shattered to pieces. He landed on the foot of the window frame and looked down at them before jumping inside. Amber moved her eyes to look at Bathilda and as if knowing what she was about to say, she took her hand and spread out her wings before flying up together and she made her balance on the window frame. She jumped inside the classroom and looked around the place in recognition. Her own classroom should be two classes away, she thought and looked behind her to see Bathilda whose eyes was busy scrutinizing the place. “Jade and Samantha are checking the lower floor,” she said, still looking around. “I should be watching out for any
Mirabel was taken into a dark cellar led by Klaus who had brought her and with a snap of his finger, the place became lit. All along the way, since they left the store and journeyed to where they are now, she has been left in awe. She had flown with Klaus on his back and she had admired his wings which spread out on each sides. she had felt the rush of the wind on her face and everything looked so surreal. She could see all the world right below her and she felt she can do almost anything, but that is only if she is one like them, and now, she wishes to be one. Maybe they were not so bad after all, she thought.She looked around the place they were in and her eyes moved to fall on someone in the room whom she recognized immediately, but standing behind him was a huge vampire who had a shiny sword in his hand and his looks are intimidating. She returned her eyes back to the boy; the junior who had wounded Kevin and she looked at him menacingly when he waved at her with a smile.“So now
“What are you both doing?” Amber turned and they both saw Bathilda standing at the entrance of the classroom.“Someone is down here,” Sage said and added, “still alive.”Bathilda walked to where they stood and she looked at the both of them before looking down and she moved around a bit before stopping. She tapped her boot on the ground and said, “This spot should be good.”“So?” Sage asked, looking at her with a raised brow.Bathilda raised her head and moved it to the side to look at him. “Smash into it,” she said and when he didn’t move, she tapped her boot on the spot again.Amber watched the both of them and she took her time to guess who is older between them. To her, Bathilda should be around the age of twenty five while Sage should be a few years older. And now she could not help but think about Mirabel at the moment. When Jade had visited during the bonfire, she had tried to gain his attention. So now that the world had come to this, if she happens to set her eyes on Sage, o
Samantha who was busy checking out the faucet, not understanding what it was and how it works, left it and turned her body to meet Harper’s eyes just in time as she was staring at her. Her brows moved up a little, seeing that she is now fully consciousness and Harper quickly looked away from her. Amber pulled her body away from her and she helped her get on her feet. Sage also stood up straight and he walked to stand a few distance away from them, checking something out just to keep himself busy.“Your outfit...” Harper said, just noticing the fitting outfit that Amber wore and she moved her eyes up to look at her. “Did you find a safe place out there? Like a camp?” she asked, her brows going up with each questions. “Did someone come to save us? Do you think my mother is safe too? What about our friends; Kevin and Mirabel? Did you all escape together?”Amber blinked at her questions. It was one she did not have any answer to but it was not like Kevin and Mirabel had never crossed her
