View MoreWe were just a family of four trying to survive somewhere in the big country of Claudia. I am my mother's first daughter, Helion is the name and I have a younger sister who I am five years older than. Yuvonne is having a hard time settling with the fact that our dad is gone for good. I don't quite blame her because she's just fifteen years and dad had been her best friend before the sudden break up with mum. We use to be an average family because my dad worked in the fish factory at the end of the town. And, well, my mum was a non-academic staff at Make It highschool where I and Yuvonne schooled. We were a one happy contented family who could put up with three square meals every day and fish was inevitable, my mum gives us different recipes of fish foods with the leftovers dad comes home with; fish barbecue, fish and bread, fish fries and Yuvonne's best, fish sauce.
But one day, something I perceived as a normal couple misunderstanding and fight got so intense that mum was yelling and breaking things at the living room while dad was also very red with rage that night. I was so scared I didn't know what to do but I just hugged my little sister who was already crying her eyes out as I tried to get a clue of what the problem was. I managed to over hear them from the corner of the living room;"I cannot put up with this, Mary. You just can't do shits because you feel like you can. You have two daughters now and you don't even consider that when making your decisions" Dad said almost not breathing, I could see his fists clenching." They are the reason I'm doing this Paul, you think bringing home fish crumbs everyday will pay their school fees and clothe them? You know your salary and mine put together is not even enough to raise these girls and this is not the life I wanted for myself, this is not the life you promised me. I had to do something, Paul and if you cannot put up with it then leave me be!"Mum said with her hands on her hair like she was going mad. After a brief silence, my dad stood up and made the quickest and to me, the worst decision ever. He went to his room, and came out with a luggage, he looked me in the eyes, I could see the sorrow in them and he was trying to fight back his tears, he leaned in and gave me a temple kiss. That was when I broke into tears because I knew right then, I may or may not set my eyes on him again. He went over to Yuvonne who was tired of crying and he hugged her crying behind her head.Yuvonne broke down again as she said;" Dad, please don't leave us. I love you"" I will come back, for you" My dad said as he left the house without looking at mum.My mum, not wanting us to notice, cleaned her eyes with the back of her hand as she stood up to lock the door.She took us to our room that night and left for hers."Is dad going to come back, Hel?"Yuvonne asked and I went mum for a minute. Then I put myself together, turned to her as I caressed her cheek and gave her a promise I knew was uncertain; "He will come back, Yuvonne, we will have to stay strong. Now let me tuck you in so you sleep tight" She turned to the other side as I tucked her in and cuddled her till she dozed off. It was the best I could do as her older sister.I couldn't sleep that night, I was restless, apart from these few weeks, my parents have been good. I don't know what dad was sad for and I don't know what mum was sad for either, but either way they were just selfish and proud that they didn't put us first before making any decisions. Looking over my shoulder, I found out Yuvonne was long gone in her slumber, so I climbed out of the bed and went for my mum's room. The door was open and her light was still on as I approached. Maybe she couldn't sleep either. When I came into her room, she was counting some money and smoking some weed. She abruptly stopped when she noticed she was not alone."It is late, Hel. You should be sleeping." She said as she continued with what she was doing.My mum's smoking habit was one of the problems my dad had always complained and tried to stop her from. Though, she started improving but whenever she is down or in her worst moments, she seeks solace in it. Standing there, I was disgusted looking at the woman that bore me. I felt like she was the reason dad left and it seemed she doesn't care." Are you happy now mum? We are the latest fatherless kids in town now, all thanks to you"I said not even looking away from her, my face said it all as I stood against the door with my hands wrapped around each other, looking towards her with utmost disgust.Mum turned to look at me, she then looked away as she dropped her head looking at her legs. Then she said,"I was born in the streets. I had three sisters and a brother from different fathers. My mum never cared much about us. We had to roam the streets for food. We will wear the same clothes all year. Nobody cared. It was a hell of a life. So I promised myself, I was never going to give birth to children with this status. I rather not bring them to the world than let them suffer."She drew from her weed exhaled, sniffed and continued. I was looking and listening all this while to get her point."But love is a bitch you know" She laughed painfully as tears dropped from her eyes. I was softened a bit."Love is an emotion that weakens the mind. I met Paul and I forgot my promise. I don't know how he did it. The rule was not to fall in love, but I broke the rule. We got married and I gave birth to Yuvonne. I already had you, Helion, before I married Paul. I wanted the best for you, and for Yuvonne, but Paul was not helping and time is running out. So I went back to my former hustle. Trust me you don't want to know about it, Hel."She gulped and poured herself whiskey. Thinking about it makes her sad. I only stood and listened, not moving."I want a better life for you girls. And I won't stop until it's done. Look after your sister, Hel. Lock the door on your way out."She said as she turned, put off the light and went under her duvet. After a while of thinking what she said to me over, I became confused but I don't want to ask because I know my mum so well, she was done talking that night, so I turned and went back to my room and prayed for sleep to come. That night was a nightmare I and Yuvonne would not forget so soon.It has been five years since tranquility and harmony was restored in the three country's affected by the historic prison of stones.My mother came home to us and we nortued her back to a human being because she was looking like a scarecrow after serving some time behind the bars.Just like I imagined, a monument was built in our names and the nine of us, including Anderson, became the government's most valued assets and our accounts specifically was weekly blessed by them. I wished so badly I had a bet on that with Washington.Now, you must want to know who the chosen one became eventually, little Nora opened the spellbound vault because she had the bloods of a Shalonian and a Dogma running in her veins.Owning to the fact that she was fiery and dauntless regardless of her age, she did a magnificent job. Karl Sullivan and Gal Mayer were later convicted and were serving a life sentence in the state prison while Ragnolf Henry committed suicide when he found out that the Capleton's weren
"What do you mean?"I asked Julius who provided me with the first answer with my calmest voice ever."She said something that got Karl angry and he took her away."My chest began to heave up and down.I got infuriated to the point my heart swelled up and in my rage, I roared heavily making everyone in the other cell to stand up and hang onto the cylindrical rods that created a barrier between us.-"Helion?! Please stop! You are hurting yourself."-"Oh my God, this is not good.""Anyone with water?!"Most were trying to help while some just stared blankly. Everyone acting according to their reaction towards panic.My muscles became stiff as if my tendons was growing apart from my bones, the chains got hotter by the minute but I couldn't decipher which was burning up; my hands or the chains? There was a rush of strength in me, I couldn't contain my being.In the next minute, the chains clamping my wrists began to glow. A cobalt-blue rays as though it was being subjected to an oxy-ethylen
An hour en route to Ramoha, we started growing cold about everything.So many ambivalent thoughts began to slip into our heads through the windows we unknowingly created; doubt, fear and anxiety. We couldn't picture a future after Ramoha, it felt like the beginning of the end as Claudia and Shalonian's future where in our hands.But I brought our minds together, made everyone to take a deep breath and exhale as many times as possible our morbid thoughts away with it. Then, we said our war prayers before the last navigation, bringing us up above water.Ready as expected, we marched stealthily into Karl's HQ, but unfortunately, there were uncountable number of armed soldiers scattered around, alert and enthusiastic."This was not the plan guys. Julius promised that they wouldn't be this much."Mercury whispered."There was never a plan. I only speculated.""You what!? speculating in a matter of life and death? Aren't you a joke in a handsome face?"Collins looked like he could have kille
In twenty minutes, we all gathered round the oblong table we dragged earlier in the middle of the coven, Julius was the one to lead us in the plan but the problem is, he said everyone was allowed to opine.He stood up and started while we sat down and watched keenly waiting to interrupt when necessary, of course a bottle was going round already and you know who the waitress is."Guys, this is no child's play and take it from me, Karl is preparedly waiting on the other end for our arrival. Now he probably have over a hundred armed soldiers with him and we are apparently.....""Wait...we are literally sacrificing our lives? As what burnt offerings? for what again, can someone please remind me?"Collins was beginning to freak out, it just dawned on him."Okay how about I look after the boat while you all go and do your....'thing'?""Dude, it's 'our' thing now, it's either you do this with us or you swim back to the Marshalls."Henry was not having it at all.Julius sighed and continued, h
Literally like forever later when I managed to open my drowsy eyes, goodness I was having a very hard head bang as if a drum roll was going on in my head, I actually got up because of a muffled high pitched noise I heard in my subconscious state, but now half awake I observed that the noise was coming from Julius' compass wrist band and he had that hand over my head through the night.Darnit! It was an emergency blaring alarm and Julius was so stoned and was sleeping beautifully like a new born, he didn't even notice. How professional, Janet took the odds though.I frantically wiggled his sleeping butt to wake him up and when he did, he stood up immediately, cursed and rushed to the helm while Henry and Washington followed behind him."We are all gonna die!"Collins whimpered in fear waking up the rest of the crew who were oblivious of what was happening, we all felt the urge to go see what was going on but the helm is not a place to be crowded, also it's the most sensitive part of th
Henry and Daniel headed to the coven while Julius made to trail after them but he needed to tidy up one or two to make sure of our safety, I stood by the door, floating in my head at the thought of the beauty that stood at the helm, I was drawn by his charisma, his aura and personality, I hypnotizingly tiptoed behind him, stood on my toes and hugged him from behind as I caressed his neck with my nose taking in his fresh scent and aftershave, I got tipsy already, he was simply alluring and I felt proud, knowing he somehow belonged to me, alone. My hand made for his nipples as I gently squeezed on each bud, he was giving out short helpless gasps responding to the touch."Not you avoiding my stares earlier and here you are now, going all shameless and naughty, you don't know how much those cute acts of yours arouses me, Hel. I don't mind making love to you here."Hearing that, I needed no wizard to tell me to let go of him, because he doesn't bluff when matters like that came up. As if he
Morning came and the seven of us already came out standing before the Bay, out front. The Bay was facing the pacific directly for easy take off. My head was swelling up at the vast water body and the breeze it produced, it was simply overwhelming. The ship was already halfway into the water, she just sat there looking pretty and gigantic and waiting for us.All of us but Janet was ready and present, we had to wait for her. Just like Julius promised, he already serviced the boat and made sure we had enough gas, I was feeling a little nostalgic about the whole situation because I never knew our quest would bring us to the point of using a submarine, I made sure I brought a lot of bottle water, talk about staying sane. Everyone of us was on a travelling backpack with our stuffs prepped inside of it. I didn't forget to bring along the phone, I went online last night right after Yuvonne got done with praising the hell outta Julius, she slept off immediately and I brought out the phone and s
"Wait, we are traveling on submarines?"Yuvonne asked with a narrowed brow. "Yes, SNX-921 precisely. Our safety is ninety percent assured if we ride on her."Julius encouraged. "Pfft, ninety percent? What happens to the ten percent huh?"Washington pressed on."You can't be so sure Daniel, even if we are to fly, you wouldn't be sure of our seventy percent safety."Julius answered. "Ok, guys I want out! I mean I don't have any specific or special skills to be in this team apparently, I will only wish you guys luck! I can't even last three minutes on a ship without barfing and messing myself up, not to talk of a submerged submarine? I am an alpha by the way and for a reason, so yeah byeee!"O'Connor said as he stood up and briskly left the country yard, swinging his butt sideways with his hand dangling beside him and the other one in his pocket. "Good riddance dude."Henry muttered to himself. "Who else wants to use the door?"Julius asked but nobody said nothing, so he continued,
Julius looked around and found out that most of us were freezing cold already and with what he was about to disclose, it was going to be a long night. Looking over at the hearth place, there was no woods to make fire. He brought out his key bunch and started, "There's a cellar down here through that door..."He said pointing at the door but Janet interrupted him,"There has been a cellar all along?" "Yes Janet, but unfortunately for you, it only stores woods for the hearth." "Oh c'mon!"Janet grunted in disappointment. Henry stood up and took the key from Julius and Linda accompanied him to get some woods for the hearth. Collins stood up and went to the bar to fill a glass for himself as we waited for the two."Make two please."Yuvonne requested and Collins came back to the sofa with two glasses and gave one to Yuvonne who smiled thankfully at him and started sipping."You know, Anthony was the only person that actually owned a phone in this place untill I saw you with one Helion
