Daughter of the Damned That's messed up
" Kian... Do you hear me? I am scared. They have me tied up... My hands have bruises, my leg hurts...They won't let me go until you come here. "A very squishy voice came through the loudspeakers. Kian was up on his toe. The rest of them looked around but the other passengers or officials were unbothered. It seemed like they didn't hear that voice or they heard something else. " Good Lord! I swear that's Betty? What's happening? " He looked around at the others. Just then there was a shuffling sound. It seemed like a mic was passed around. The voice that spoke in it made Kian grab his hair and sit down on the airport floor. " Kian, I am so sorry my lad. Betty is just scared. Don't pay any attention to her... no matter what you do, don't come here. We will be fine... (smack)! " A loud punch disrupted Kian's grandfather's speech. The group hadn't recovered from the initial shock of it when another voice yelled in the microphone. "Braze, listen to the old man. Don't come here no m
Daughter of the Damned Crazy girl
***At some distance***" What? Is that Rozelle? Did I hear that right? "Robert turned around at Quill and asked him, amused and surprised at the same time. His brother had his hands and legs tied up as he lay in his back. Robert went around him in circles as they talked. It had been like that for days. That was how Robert forced-fed Quill to keep him alive. He was absolutely resilient. Robert had no choice but to act that way since his brother would not believe otherwise. In front of them was the body of Layla. Even though it had been days at a stretch, there was no decomposition or decay in it. But Quill was unable to see that in his madness. " How dare you do this to me Robert. I am your own flesh and blood. Was it not enough that you killed Layla for your stupid ego? You stoop so low as to disrespect the dead? Why would you not give her a proper burial? What do you want from me? You took her away from me forever. At least let me bid her a proper goodbye. "Quill had sobbed l
Daughter of the Damned Great escape
At the Mafia's den -Xen eyed the helicopter stationed at the helipad through the tiny holes in the worn out warehouse. His old boss wasn't in town, he had just flown in. It was his private chopper right there. It seemed like the Watchers had tried reaching him for collaboration, which he turned down in hope of higher profits. Like they said, these scumbags are used to selling their souls to the devil for money... all the love he professed for Xen was gone when money dangled in the border. " You know what, there is something that I have been keeping from you... " Xen whispered, his voice almost inaudible as his hands morphed behind his back. " Come again son? " The boss brought his ears close to Xen's lips when suddenly Xen pulled him under him and grabbed him with his giant limbs. Shouts and yelled went about as stray gunshots hit here and there. " No shooting. Ask your men to drop their weapons or I rip your head off . " Xen ordered. "Screw you.... you son of a b*tch.... wha
Daughter of the Damned Another Chemorian? Or a half breed?
Robert and Rozelle were deep in conversation when the commotion outside caught their attention. Both of them ran out. Rozelle looked at her brother walking in with one hand around the shoulder of a Chemorian lad , instead of arresting them. " George! What are you doing? " Rozelle yelled. " What do you think? He is injured... knocked out... I am trying to help him. " George was too innocent to be Rozelle's brother from the same mother. " You should have helped yourself instead and arrested him while he was out. He is an alien, George. Gunshots will not kill him. " She walked up to him, probably to take the custody of Xen, herself. But something terrible happened in the next few moments. Both Rozelle and George suddenly froze in their tracks. Their eyes started turning black as their hair started to turn all white. " What's happening... "" What's going on? "Whispers and astonishment started filling the air. Mira was only half way down the ladder and she watched them, while d
Daughter of the Damned They have her
Outer space -As they pulled her past Earth's atmosphere, Mira noticed that her captors were pixelating and slowly vanishing piece by piece. She thought they would take her down the same route that she used to travel to the Chemorian borders. However that was not the case. After crossing the earth's atmosphere, it started to feel like they had entered a different dimension. It's matrix was not the same. Mira could feel it. Even her own body started to feel heavier and strange. " Where are you taking me? Why? " She tried to utter but no word left her mouth. That same feeling of helplessness that she often experienced in her sleep, was back. Mira felt like she was getting sucked back inside her nightmares.The space around them was unusually dark even for the outer space. The further they went the weaker her captors became. Mira thought it might be her only chance but she was mistaken. She tried to summon her fire but nothing happened. Little did she know, she had already entered t
Daughter of the Damned Action
"Sacrifice who? "Braze forgot all about his mother. His hands were around Robert's collar and he demanded an answer. " That girl they took... that Chemorian... She... She isn't a normal girl... we cannot let her die. Her death will usher in endless darkness. A Darkness that no one will be able to ward off. "Robert was shaking so much Braze had to let go of his collar and hold him instead. "Mira? Are you talking about Mira? I thought you were a Watcher... why do you look so concerned about her? "Kian came forward. " I think he knows something beyond what we know... look at his eyes... "Robert's whites were gone when he had had his vision but they were gradually returning. " Kian, we don't have any time to lose. Let's get that Heartstaff and find Guardian Yvonne. Every second we lose, puts Mira at risk... "" They are waiting for the right time... "Robert murmured. " What? " Braze turned around to look at him with irritation. " They are waiting for the stars to align... with
Daughter of the Damned Closing in
" It should have been right here... "Braze was digging through the cave like a mole. They were back to the Mountain of Forgetfulness, but without any fruitful results. They had been going around in circles around the place. They looked inside every crook and creek, went around every bend and corner. But it seemed like all their attempts were futile. " This was the cave... wasn't it Xen? Tell me... why are you not helping? Don't you care about Mira? "Braze was on the verge of losing his sanity. Xen didn't mind him pouncing on him and punching the air. " Yelling and shouting is not going to take us anywhere."Xen pulled his hand away from his collar. " Do you care about her or not? Time? Who knows how much time we even have... don't tell me you believe the shit that Watcher spewed. He looks like a psycho. He is waiting for a dead woman to come back to life... What is she? Jesus? Like...that psycho looked very capable of killing her... I don't trust him ... not even a little bit.
Daughter of the Damned One of us
" Thank you mister. I cannot believe I had to go through all this just because I had agreed to this engagement. "Betty could not stop spewing as Robert helped each one of them up and out of their bondage. " Well Betty. I had given you the option. I told you that I had no control over how Kian felt. If he isn't going to go ahead with your relationship... I can do nothing about it. " Kian's grandfather looked absolutely fed up with her tactics. " He didn't even stop to check on me. He went away as if I didn't even exist... all because of that witch... serves her right... abducted and sacrificed.... that's how it should be... " Apparently, her sharp ears didn't miss any part of the story. She was rooting for the Dark Mages and was met with nothing but frowns. " Betty... just go home and rest. I do not have any more strength left for this. " Kian's grandfather caught Robert's arm and whispered. "Please tell me how I can help my grandson. I don't understand what is going on but I can

Several Years Later At Chemora -"Baba! Baba! Who is that girl? Why does she have a star over her head! ""Sssshhhh! " The little girl asking the question was instantly hushed. " Don't you know dear that we don't talk about her? Not in the night. No, my little darling. Never. I will tell you all about her in the morning. Alright? "But the little girl looked very angry at her mother. " But why mother, was she not the one who brought peace and tranquility over our planet? " Her tiny voice was fierce and strong. The woman quickly pulled the blinds around her place and closed her windows. The little girl had been looking at a statue at the Central Square. It was snowing in Chemora and the snow made the star above her head absolutely white. " I will tell you the story. I will tell you the story again. But not during the hours of the darkness, my little angel. It is not safe. You know what's going on. " The mother begged. Almost terrified. " Alright. I will wait till the sunrise. Yo
Daughter of the Damned Birth of star
Braze had his eyes glued on the telescope There was something happening amongst the stars. Something that he had been anticipating but could not really fathom. He was yet to complete his research papers. They were due for submission within a month . He has been lost in stargazing lately. Particularly gazing at a distant star. His phone rang breaking his undivided concentration. " You must come over at the observatory , Braze. Something phenomenal is happening with your star. You cannot miss it. The telescope at your place is not strong enough to capture this miracle. " What is it? "Braze asked as his breath picked up pace. Even though he could not properly see what was happening, he knew something was different about his star that day. Braze hit the brake hard as the voice from the other end hung up after telling him that, " It was the birth of a star. "***From the depths of the cosmic cradle, a celestial ballet unfolds as if orchestrated by unseen hands. Through the lens
Daughter of the Damned Start of a New Dawn
" It's time to say our goodbyes, my sweethearts. Let's meet again in the next life. "The boys opened their eyes as they sat up with a jolt. They were under the stars. There was darkness everywhere around them. They were on top of the highest peak around. Their clothes were around as they sat there and looked up at the twinkling wonders above their heads. A particularly bright star shone so bright that it made every around them as clear as the moonlight. They looked at each other and then they looked up above. They could not understand what they were doing. They immediately ran towards their clothes when the realisation of their n*kedness finally hit them. " Do we know each other? "One of them asked as the others looked at him with more confusion. " I think we do. Are we waiting for someone? " Another one asked. " I think we are here because of that. " The third one pointed at the Southern Star. " My knights! "They turned around as they heard a voice. " That's her. She i
Daughter of the Damned Mating in the Stars
" Why are we back here? "Xen called out in astonishment as they found themselves inside the enclosure from where they had retrieved the Heartstaff. " Hello boys! Hi Mira! Thank goodness, you didn't keep me waiting. "Razzak's voice startled them. "Why is she here? " They asked in unison immediately coming in front of Mira like a shield. Razzak laughed as she shoved them to the side and went ahead and hugged Mira, who reciprocated the action with a smile. " Thank you for giving my memories back. "Mira was looking extremely refreshed and strong. The fear and unease that was darkening her face was gone. " You don't need to thank me. I took my chance. I always wanted to know more about you. Stella made it possible. I went against my ancestors in stealing that stone for you. I but all my eggs in your basket Mira. And I am glad that I did. "She smiled. " I will leave the rest to you. I think you might need some privacy. "She hugged Mira once more and winked, before leaving. " Wha
Daughter of the Damned The final countdown
" So you figured a way around, huh? Do you think the power of the Heartstaff can keep me away? It literally runs in my veins as well. "Mira was in the centre and the boys were around her. She clung to her father, scared, afraid, unable to understand why the universe turned so violent ? And it seemed like it all revolved around her. " Attack! " One blow after another sent tremors all around as the boys fought hard to maintain their defense. Even with their collective effort, it was difficult for them to counter so many successive attacks. " Mira, you can end this! " Kilian yelled from the other side. " All that I ask from you is to come back with me. Everything can be like it used to be. Just come back to me Mira. "Mira grabbed her father's shirt tighter as one blast sent Kian reeling behind. Calex kissed Mira on her forehead, " Always listen to your heart. " And without another word, he darted off towards the Kakarian formation. " You fool! " Kilian personally sent one blast af
Daughter of the Damned Scattered incidents
Earth had become a ragging battle field. There was news about random blasts and terrorist attacks all over the news. There was a frenzy everywhere as people ran indoors to hide inside their homes and basements. The Watcher Headquarters was going crazy, trying to handle calls from all the Presidents and Prime Ministers. It was true that they were answerable but the situation had blown out of proportion. They had no other choice than to call back their very best. Rozelle, George and Robert, walked back in the building, matching their steps. "Never thought that I would be back in business! " George stretched as the humanoids greeted them with coffee mugs. " Who would have thought that Gala had developed such a wonderful anecdote. She is talented, isn't she? " Rozelle read Robert's expression closely as she asked the question. Robert knew that he was in a tricky situation. He had to praise Layla for her credibility but he had to do so without making his lover jealous. " Life, my d
Daughter of the Damned Their power in their unity
" Why did we stop here? We should be running. This place is not very far from Guardian Yvonne's place. Kilian can catch up at any moment. "Xen yelled, paranoid. " Wait! Martha is relaying a message. We wouldn't get it if we crossed this perimeter. Ssshhh! Listen carefully, it's Yvonne. Is he... is he talking with Kilian? "Calex looked concerned. There was absolute silence as they listened to their conversation carefully with the help of the connection that Martha had created -" There was a time when I used to admire my sister. I used to look up to her. But then they began to shower unnecessary praises on her while all she did was sneak out to meet with men. Like I didn't know what she was doing in the name of training for strength. "" What rubbish! Kiara never saw any men apart from Calex.And your tribe ostracized her for that. " Yvonne tried to counter Kilian's claim. " She did a lot more than that. I saw her myself with Netera... "" You cannot be serious.... " Yvonne fumed
Daughter of the Damned Kilian
" We will talk about this when you get back! " Kian's mother had just left when the front door almost blasted open. " He is coming. Where is Mira?"It was Xen. It seemed like he had run a million miles but he went straight for her, scooping her off the ground and kissing her in front of them all. " We need to get her out of here. Kilian is on his way. He is coming with his army. "Xen turned around at Braze and Kian, as if nothing had happened." How did you know that we were here? "" How does Kilian know? "Came the dual accusation. Xen signed and slowly unbuttoned his shirt and pointed towards his chest. " I did not know that we could still use this but when Kilian was chasing after my ship and wrecked it into half, my instinct kicked in. I could feel the two of you. And the power of the Staff manifested from my chest. "Xen pounced over the two of them and grabbed them into a bear hug with both his hands. " I missed you both! "His words came out of nowhere. " So it was you
Daughter of the Damned Moving forward
They had been sitting beside each other for hours but neither had been talking. Finally Calex took the initiative to break the ice. " I am sure you father would understand. "Braze was startled by his statement. " Love makes us do all sorts for stupid things, " Calex continued as Braze looked at him with confused eyes. " I hope you are not being too hard on yourself. Guilt is a very dangerous weapon. It keeps cutting you from the inside while nobody get to know how you are exactly feeling. " He tried to smile at Braze and that definitely made Braze feel more awkward. " You know, I used to love Kiara, Mira's mother, just like you love Mira. " Braze could tell that he was putting real effort into that conversation. His voice was shaky and his eyes were turning red as he spoke. The topic was sensitive, yet he was willing to make things clear. Guardian Yvonne had gone to look for Kian and the Marine Queen while Mira was sleeping in her room. " I was in love with Kiara before I was
