He felt surprisingly embarrassed when he stopped some metres off from where the chase began and stood hands on his knees panting like a starving panda thrown into the deep wilderness. How foolish was he to think, nay, to believe that whatever it called, magic or not, will effectively save him from the menacing growls of a hunger-struck Lion. Thanks to his fate, the lion was wounded, tired and bereft of any atom of energy and most importantly, will. If not, pray he's not the stubborn praying mantis the finds peace at the belly of the fowl.

Freedom is taking another meaning to Tom right now and no, it's not the freedom to believe, it is the freedom to live.

    Where to work, she did not know. She just wanted to have something to do to occupy her mind and soul. At least she knows she can't finish this college if she doesn't find such an endeavor to invest herself. She just have to stroll more like wander some more and some random store might take her. After all she is a college student and that is more than enough qualification for most stores within this vicinity. And so she strolled down the street for what was about four hours for a sane mind but not even worth noting for Heidi who needs the stroll more than she needs the job.

    CHAPTER ONE “I don’t understand mother” the little boy’s face squeezed like a mop, he is in obvious disarray. “More, I am growing hungry, you’ll understand later.” There a woman lying by the corner answered. “Why not now? Mother!” the boy is getting really exasperated. The mom seems to be unperturbed. “More? Leave mama alone, she’s carrying a baby.” She touches her bulging tummy. “A baby?” he glowed in excitement and confusion. Those words sounds exciting seeing how his mother announced it but really, he cannot understand them. “Who is a baby?” Relieved that at last he seems to have been distracted, she heaved a sigh. “A baby is another you. It is coming to stay with you and play with you.” The boy’s face crumpled. ‘Another me?’ he thought. That’s bewildering and his little face showed it all which made his heavy mother chuckle. “So mom?” will he be turning to a wolf like us?” His mother felt like this is taking a whole turn, she allowed the smile that crept to her face, an int

    It was a bursting scene, he roared to the heavens, as he knew how to do. These kids are scaring the day light out of him, their eyes.

    The mountain ash stood tall and proud, its leaves rustling in the gentle mountain breeze. Morekish stared at it, his mind still reeling from the bizarre dreams and encounters with the mysterious girl. The mountain ash seemed like a silent sentinel, a witness to the strange occurrences in Morekish's life. His mother, ever perceptive, observed him closely. "More, something is bothering you. I can see it in your eyes. Tell me." Morekish hesitated, his internal struggle evident on his face. The lemon fires burned brightly, a symbol of his mother's unwavering support and guidance. Finally, he sighed and spoke, "Mom, I've been having these strange dreams, and there's this girl. I keep seeing her, and every time I do, it's like the world around me fades away." His mother's eyes softened, understanding dawning in them. "Dreams have a way of revealing hidden truths, More. They're messages from the subconscious. Tell me more about this girl."

    Under the moonlit sky, Morekish and the mysterious girl ventured deeper into the mountains, guided by the ancient whispers of the mountain ash. The air was charged with a palpable energy, and the landscape seemed to transform into a surreal dreamscape. As they walked, the girl began to reveal the purpose of their connection. "Morekish, your spirit is entwined with the magic of this land. You are a guardian, chosen to protect the balance between the realms. The mountain ash has sensed your calling." Morekish listened intently, his senses heightened by the mystical aura surrounding them. The mountain ash, with its leaves now glowing softly, seemed to validate the girl's words. "But why me? What is this balance you speak of?" Morekish questioned, his curiosity mixed with a hint of trepidation. The girl explained, "Long ago, a great darkness threatened to engulf this realm. The guardians, like yourself, were chosen to safeguard the delicate equilibrium between the mystical and the mund

    " I've found you Rose." he swatted out the droplets of rain from his face and the beard."You ran through the rain." Rose stated which was more like asking, quivering and holding up on her own drenched in the rain."Yes, of course, I have to come after you," a little bit of unease in which Rose found time to turn her back to him, prepping to jump down from the precipice of the roof and into the night sky or so it seemed."You didn't need to run away. Especially like that." he walked up to her, coming close enough to swing his arm around her, only to be ward off by an invisible barrier, something is wrong with Rose."What's up with you dear? you seem to be blowing off heat. Are you okay?" he was deeply worried." I made the run for it because he wanted to use me for his rituals."" What?!"
