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
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
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
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
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
"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
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
We 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
