Author. It was a slow dance. Girls holding their partners and twirling around with their ball gowns. It was just wonderful to see. One would call this a romantic movie seeing the couples touch their nose as they danced slowly. No matter what you say about everyone, you can never get your eyes off of the Cross sisters and the Hudson brothers. They were the ones standing out from anyone else on that ground. Melissa smiled as she danced happily with Jonathan. Her eyes were locked on him the whole time. Patricia and Alicia danced with their partners as well. For the first time, Morgan felt different. His heart was racing so fast that he could barely catch a breath. Every time Patricia smiled, she could hear his heart thumping. Mark was the happiest man today. He loved the little moments he had with Alicia every day. But today, he was loving it even more. At times he felt bothered, wanting to know about her visions. But then he thought to never bring up the to
Author. Day 30 Everything was just going fine. The students were having their day, The Cross sisters and the Hudson brothers just had their first dance, Catty confessed her feelings. Everything was just so surreal. But as you know, this was all just the calmness before the storm. Simon lay on the bed unconscious till dawn. There was no sign of him waking up. Catty and Erica sat outside the room waiting for the doctor to give them the good news. But to their disappointment, the doctors had no news. They didn't visit the forest last night. It wasn't good timing and even Catty hated the fact of leaving Simon alone. It surprises me seeing how this young woman was so eager to save his life without caring about her own. She had just met him a few weeks ago, but the bond between them grew stronger as he was the only vampire with who she could truly share her weakness. The only vampire, who helped her when she fall from her weakness. And she was the only vampire who
Author The Dark Palace. I wonder, what made Geoffery name his daughter, Krulisa? Only one word could pop up in my head, every time I thought about her name. Cruelty. Cruelty, Krulisa. Not bad! "He is awake! They woke him up!" Borham stormed into Krulisa's room just as she was busy getting dressed. "Can't you knock? If only you were a second earlier, you'd have found me naked!" "That's not our concern right now! That man is awake!" Krulisa fixed her robe and looked at him. "Who the hell are you talking about?" "DAMN YOU, KRULISA! Don't you get it? I'm talking about the vampire we killed in the mountains! In front of the Hudson brothers!" She was angry. Her face bulged in anger and turned red. She glared at Borham furiously. "How? How IS THAT POSSIBLE?!" Banging and throwing everything around, she created a whole mess inside the room. Her anger was at a point where she could kill anyone who interrupted her. "If that man gets to talki
Author Catty sat on the bench outside the main hall. Resting her head on the wall, she wondered where Henry was. Anger was rushing through her head as she pictured Simon's body in her head. "Control!" She whispered, trying to control her anger. As time passed by, her condition kept getting worse. Nothing was helping. Even the look on her face was changing. She looked just like a walking corpse. Since sitting in the halls for some fresh air didn't help, she walked back to her room. "Why did I expect to get some fresh air in an isolated room?" She complained. Upon arriving, a gift box with pink paper waited for her on her doorsteps. She was flustered seeing the present as she unwrapped the box and pulled out a bottle of blood. "Aww Henry!" She whined. In an instant blink of an eye, the bottle was empty. She drank it in one go. I guess that's how hungry she must've been. "I feel better now!" She said, laying her back on her bed. ……….
Victoria."What was that?"I hold my head as a sudden ringing noise interrupts me. Raphael and Benjamin stop their horses and turn back."Everything alright, Victoria?" Shouts Raphael.I can't say a word. The ringing just came and left. But for some reason, I'm starting to fear what it was all about. I've never heard this ringing before.Not getting a reply from me made them curious. Raphael and Benjamin got down and came to me."What happened?" Raphael's hands were cold. We have been traveling for so long with no rest. I feel sorry for him and his people."I don't know. But there was this sudden ringing in my head. Like a screeching noise.""Any idea what it was all about?" I wish I could answer that question easily. But No."I have no idea. I've never heard this before."Raphael eyes Benjamin in worry. Biting his lower lips in doubt.
CatherineDay 31 ( D- Day )Breathing hard. I had these terrible visions the whole night.I'm sweating, nervous, scared and lonely. Something is happening to me.I didn't visit the forest last night. When Erica got back this morning, she told me that they all had waited for me to show up. But my legs were numb, I could barely feel my body.Ever since I drank the blood yesterday, a strong force has blocked me. I feel trapped and suffocated. But then it gets better. Everything turns back to normal. I feel relieved.Laying on my bed, I waited for someone to get me atleast a plate of food, so I could ease my hunger.I can't move. My chest was burning. My blood was boiling. And the visions I had just kept getting worse.Today I had the vision of a place burning in fire. All I could see was the smoke that suffocated the people in the armour suite. Once the vision was over, I started sweating and my m
Jonathan. I'm shaking. My hands, trembling from the murder that took place last night. I look at the blood, smeared on my face, dry and it stinks. My tears have left marks under my eye bags, my nose still stuffy. Everything felt different as I washed the blood from my face. He killed my parents! He deserves to die! I murmur the words on and on while washing the blood. It doesn't come off easily. The thick layer of dark red blood made me nauseous. I vomited three times since I got back. Looks like I was about to throw up again… After getting rid of the bloody clothes, I switch to my usual black shirt and loose pants, with a long coat and high boots. Everything will be okay. Breakfast was served. I was sitting next to the table where Oliver was. He looked at me and smiled happily. The boy was clean and neater than before. Oliver started dating Amy after the weekend party. According to the rumours, she wanted to take her revenge on me, so she got close t
Alicia. It's the last day today. I am ready to go back and see my family. But that's not the issue here. It's been days since I sent Mr Bumble with the letter. I haven't told my sister's anything about the vision I had, but it haunts me to keep this to myself. Why haven't they replied to me yet? What is going on in there? Not even a single letter came from the Academy. What scares me more is that even Mr Bumble didn't come back. Are they alright? I sit next to the lobby, staring at the picture on the wall. My mom and Krulisa look so happy. One would say, they were the happiest people in the world. But the ugly truth was, that the first person was someone who had sent her daughter to stop the most evil vampire, who is about to take over the world. Yes. That's the second person. What went so wrong between the two that they changed? Krulisa looks like a good person. No one would believe that a person with that face is actually about to destroy the wo
Being a lost soul isn't easy. You never get to touch the one you care about, or make them believe that you exist, or even save them from all the dangers. I have been wandering around, looking at all the misery and happiness people have been facing. Who am I?Well,My name is Author. I am just a lost soul.

I've seen Catty grow and now, I'll follow her in this new path too...you want to find out more? Well, hold my hands. let me show you what happens next........~ Author~
Thirty three years later. 1st January 2023 "Catty, please open your eyes! Catty you're not dead! Please, I'm sorry. I'm sorry! Catttyyyyyy!" My eyes shot open. Once again I'm having those terrible nightmares. "What's wrong with these dreams?" I say to myself, rubbing my eyes. Why are my cheeks wet? I wipe the tears from my eyes. "I've been crying?" Weird. It's not just today. Almost every week, such nightmares come haunting me. And then there's this specific name that I keep hearing. "Reno." Stupid head! Stupid nightmares! I hated telling my dad about my nightmares. He would only ask me to go see a therapist, which I hated the most. I am not crazy! At times I would tell my little brother, Tyler all about it. He was only fifteen and thought I had some fantasy movie playing inside my head all night. "Hey! Are you awake?" There he is! The guy I was just talking about. "The door's open, Tyler. Get in!" He got inside, holding a pen and a book. "So, what have you seen today?
Henry. One day later. I've been practicing non-stop with my brothers. There was no rest, for the first time it felt weird to not sleep. Victoria let me and my brothers get our belongings from the institutes. Though Jonathan couldn't go, the rest of us sneaked in during the night and got everything. I found Krulisa's letters, rolled into balls and hid under my bed. "Someone must've been here!" I picked them up and tossed them in a box. And lastly, I found a new letter, folded neatly under my pillow. What surprised me were the words written on top of it. "My words......may they come true. From, Catherine Cross." Catherine wrote a letter? For whom? If she was in my room that means she might've seen Krulisa's letters. "She threw them under my bed…" the words sank in me. It hurt me to even think that she knew about Krulisa. Yet she embraced me with love when I met her outside. My tears dropped on top of the letter. I cry everytime Catty's thoughts flash in my head."I will foreve
Victoria My daughters did it. They saved the world from the wrath of Krulisa. Although the damage in the institute caught mortal attention, Dorothea and Rose helped me use the spell balls and wipe their memories. No students or anyone knows that The Journey Institute once existed. Nothing went according to the prophecy. Though we feared that Borham was the obstacle, little did we know that five mortals were involved too. Because of the Hudson brothers, Borham had his chance at getting Catty. And because of that, everything changed. My daughters had to make a sacrifice. I was surprised thinking how Melissa was so clever to come up with the plan of using their blood. When Ethel told me everything, I knew it. My daughters were the bravest and the cleverest children in the world. Melissa was always one step ahead at thinking. I didn't have to tell her about my father's sacrifice, she guessed it herself. About him using his blood to create the prophecy. You never get to enjoy what they
Author "Krulisa STOP!" Melissa shouted. Krulisa stood before them holding Principal Weathers by her neck. She laughed seeing the sisters before her. The institute looked like a war zone. Nothing in the interior looked the same it used to look. Only ruins remained. "Finally! The four of you together! You know how long I've waited here!" Krulisa laughed. She looked completely different. Her face looked better than before. It looked like she was reborn again. The immortal heart must've helped her. "Let her go!" Melissa felt nauseous seeing principal Weathers in pain. Her nose was bleeding as Krulisa tightened her grip, squeezing her neck to death. She dropped the body on the ground with a thud and grinned. "What makes you think you can order me? I have the immortal heart in me, I'm only an inch close to taking over the world. You really think you can STOP ME!" Her shouts echoed. Melissa's eyes were in pain seeing principal Weathers lifeless body. "We came this far, we can't just st
Author. The war was about to begin. Everyone prepared themselves. Catty's body was placed in a coffin. Principal Dorothea and Rose had finally met Victoria. The trio embraced each other. Shoulder to shoulder, bosom to bosom, their chins resting on each other's shoulders. Reno sat gazing at Catty's coffin. "I miss you." He whispered. All the happy memories of hers flashed in his head. Sad tears trailed down his cheeks as he thought about her. "There will never be another girl who will love me like you did, Catty." He whispered to himself.Victoria found him and sat next to him. "I wanted to tell you something. It's about your father." She took a deep breath. Reno could sense her next words. "Is he dead?" Tears dropped from his eyes. Victoria nodded, fighting her emotions. "I know you think he didn't love you. But everything he did was to save you and your people. He didn't want to lose you like Nala." Reno nodded. He turned to Victoria. The look on his face was a pity. I wanted
Author Henry fell on his knees. He didn't want to believe everything he witnessed. Tears dripped on his knees, his eyes were fixed at Catty's corpse. With Catty gone, the spell she casted died too. Krulisa walked next to Benjamin and picked the immortal heart along with the scroll of prophecy. "What is this?" Her eyes were scanning the scroll curiously. She smiled seeing the immortal heart. Henry was finally free. He slowly walked next to Catty's body. Hands trembling with sadness, as he touched her face. His tears dropped on her cheeks. "Hey…… You are not dead right? You- you're just pre- pretending isn't it? Catty? CATTYY?" He hugged her tightly and began weeping. Her body was cold as always. Her face, back to how she used to look, her hairs were all white now, with a little red stain of her blood.He wouldn't let go of her body. Pouring his heart out, he embraced her. "No no noooooo! Catty please come back to me! I am sorry, please, please come back to me!" Meanwhile, Kruli
Author. Krulisa stood facing her opponent, who she had waited to meet for days. Catty was just as frightened as Henry. She tried staying strong. But the pain kept getting worse now that Borham was trying to hold her back from attacking. Benjamin and Simon tried pulling Catty back, only to get rejected simultaneously. "I can't let you get hurt because of me!" She whispered to Simon. Krulisa glared at Catty. "You look just like your mother. Which makes me more angry!" "Well, I feel proud to hear that. You won't ever understand that feeling. Seeing how you've grown up, I believe you had a terrible past!" Said Catty. Borham pulled Krulisa aside and used a curse spell on Catty. "Bleed!" He said. And just then, blood started dripping from Catty's eyes, nose, and ears. Krulisa laughed, seeing her in pain. "Pathetic. Are you really the one that created this shield!? You look like someone who just woke up from the dead!" Catty screamed in pain. While Henry tried helping Catty, Simon an
Author Back at the Heatherhalls Institute, Simon's eyes shot open as he finally gained his consciousness back. Gasping hard for air, he looked around him. "Where am I?" He whispered. Principal Dorothea, who was sitting next to his bed, ran and threw her arms around him. "You are alive! You came back to me!" She cried. Principal Rose walked inside the room and found the duo hugging each other. She was just as surprised as Dorothea. Simon silently glared at nowhere. Looks like he was busy thinking about something else. "The Cross sisters, We have to warn them!" He said. Principal Dorothea looked at her friend and then back at her son. "Calm down, Simon. Tell us what happened to you? Who did this to you?" He shook his head in frustration. A part of him was still thinking about the event that took place in the mountains. His fight with Krulisa and Borham. "The Hudson brothers!" He said, gritting his teeth in anger. Principal Rose walked next to him. "What are you saying Simon? T
