2024-10-29 19:42:56"Inhumanity always existed, the greed and envy of humans has kept that beast in them alive" Elle said with tears welling up in her eyes as she closed the book.
The first time she opened the book, she didn't except something like that to be the reason the world was separated, she rubbed her hands over her face and sighed frustratedly, history is about to repeat itself and this time it might be her fault.
She glanced at the book for a while before she turned to the other side of the room, in as much as it gave her a much needed insight about the other realm, she wasn't able to discover the connection of her classmates' dissappereance to all of that.
Elle was still pondering over her classmates dissappereance when she heard the front door open and she heard her dad's voice as he came in, she stood up from her bed immediately to go meet him. She decided to apologise when she saw her mum crying "just for mum" she said to herself as she walked out of her room.
She made to rush to her father and apologise but halted when she heard her parents discussing "The genetics changes have been carried out, they need about 2-3 days to get used to it and they'll be returned to their parents"Anthony said to his wife, who just smiled and nodded at him
"That's good. You made sure that everything was carried out according to what I drafted in the file right?" Anna asked and he just nodded and hugged her.
"Genetics changes?" Elle repeated quietly "what genetics changes are they talking about? How come they are working together, Dad's not the one to pay attention to scientific stuffs" Elle said to herself but she pushed it to the back of her mind and walked over to her Dad
"Welcome Dad" she greeted in a very soft voice, Anthony glanced at her for a brief moment and looked away "thank you" he replied in a dead tone
"I'm sorry Dad" she quickly apologized "I was being a brat and I'm sorry about that"
Anthony looked at his daughter for a while before he smiled and pulled her in for a hug, "that's okay sweetheart" he said as hugged her tightly
"Thanks Dad" Elle replied with a huge smile on her face "I'll be heading over to my room again, I wasn't able to sleep properly cause I was thinking of what happened this morning" Elle lied through her teeth, she just needed an excuse to go to her mom's office.
"Alright sweetie, go rest" Anthony said as he freed her from his grip, Elle just smiled and nodded with a smile on her face before she dashed upstairs, but instead of going to her room she rushed into her mum's office.
She locked the door and scanned the cabinets her mum keeps her files, she made a mental note on how it was arranged so she could arrange it back like that when she finds what she's looking for.
She quickly started looking for the files in the different cabinets, she looked for it everywhere but she couldn't find it "where on Earth is the file!?" She asked as she looked around the office while biting her fingers.
"Wait! It seems like a top secret stuff so she wouldn't place it with other files" she said to herself and quickly arranged the files in the cabinet the way they were. When she was done, she walked over to her mom's table and trailed her hands through the drawers, she remembers seeing her mum open one of her drawers with a code.
When she got to the 3rd drawer she stopped and opened it, she saw a safe inside the drawer and she smiled before she inserted the code "0429" and the safe opened. The file was right there staring at her when she opened the safe, "GENETICS CHANGE" was written boldly on the file, she swiftly took it and left her mum's office.
She got to her room and made sure the door is properly locked before she opened the file, a lot of theories and writings were made about genetics change. She kept going through the documents, she saw her mum's final writing on genetics change but the moment she opened the next page, her eyes quickly widened and her mouth dropped open.
FEW DAYS AGO
It's been four days since the man visited the kidnapped children and within those days 5 Children out of the 30 kidnapped children fell sick.
They all were just sitting there quietly in darkness in their different corners, they were all tired of crying anyway, they've accepted their fate and bore everything quietly. The sick ones gave up the thought of receiving any medical care.
"Well... Look who's back" A voice called as the place lit up a lil bit and the children immediately sat up, fear clouded their eyes as they looked at the man "now now don't be scared" he said with a creepy smile on his face as looked at the children
"My my, I see some of you have fallen sick. No need to worry your choice today will decide if you will live or not" he said as he signalled one of the men to get him a chair.
"So about our last discussion.." he started as he sat down "what have you all decided?? Work for me or not?" He asked, this time the smile was completely wiped off his face.
The children looked down for awhile, they already know that whatever work he has for them will be something dangerous but, "I'd rather live and be seen as a Vilian than die like Coward." They muttered under their breath. That has been their mantra since they decided their answer.
"Okay..those that are willing to work for me, move to the right and those that aren't move over to the left" the man said and he watched all the children scoot over to the right. He immediately smiled "Good choice" he said as he stood up to leave
"Bring them out" he whispered to one of the men standing by the door before he left.
The children were brought out to an open field after their decision to work for the man, and some of them wanted to crawl back to the darkness they came out from because of the hotness of the sun on their skin."Now that you all are here, I'm going to tell you what will be happening to you guys now. Remember, you can't back out now" The man said as he watched the children glance at each other for a while, before he spoke up again.
"Today, I'm going to be messing with your DNA and genetics a little bit. I can't guarantee that it won't hurt but don't worry, it'll certainly stop hurting" he said and one the children raised up their hand "yes?"
"What do you mean by messing with our DNA and genetics?" The boy asked the question and the other children turned towards him with curious gazes.
"Well, let's just say that after this you won't be leaving here as humans" he said and the children's eyes widened in fear. "Tie them up" he ordered the men standing there.
The children were quickly tied up. And as soon as they were tied up, series of syringes were brought out; each containing a greenish liquid. 30 men stepped forward and each took a syringe
"This injection holds the DNA and blood of strong vampires and this stuff right here" he raised one syringe and pumped out a little liquid from it "this is the thing that will mess up your whole life"
"I know I know, you have many questions. Isn't vampire blood basically human blood? No! You see, unlike popular beliefs we do produce our own blood, it's not red like yours cause we lack some pigments but that's what makes it strong." the man explained as he looked at the children with a crazy look in his eyes and a creepy smile on his face.
"And the second question on your mind is.. how will this work?" He asked as he stared at the children that nodded their heads quietly "I guess we'll just have to find out" he said and signalled the men to inject the children.
The children were immediately injected on their forearms simultaneously and when he was sure that the entire liquid entered their body, he smiled and looked at his watch "5 minutes from now, your body is going to heat up. Your head will feel like it's about to explode, you'll feel your veins shrinking and you'll literally feel your insides twisting. it's going to feel like the world is going against you and then you'll slowly fall into a deep slumber, only to wake up as a new person" he said to the children who were beginning to sweat profusely.
"Take them in and lock the door firmly, they'll soon turn into wild animals" he said to one of the men "bye" he said to the children as they were dragged back in.
The children were hurriedly taken inside and the door locked firmly, not soon after cries and shouts of pain were heard from the room; he smirked at the door and turned on his heels, leaving the arena immediately.

It's been 7 days since Elle found the file and things haven't been the same, she goes to sleep every night with the fear of her now persistent nightmares and wakes up every morning feeling disgusted by what she found in the file. This morning, she woke up with sweat all over her face and her pillow was drenched. She couldn't figure out if it was her tears or her sweat, she ran her hands through her brown curly hair as tears rolled down her face and she curled up in her bed. It keeps getting horrible as the days pass, she had sneaked out and bought her self sleeping pills but that didn't change anything. "Elle I hope you're awake" Anna called out to her daughter as she continued making breakfast, she decided to turn a blind eye to the drastic changes she saw in her daughter's body because she's too busy making sure her project goes as planned Elle sat up when she heard her mum's voice a

"what is it?" Rus asked with a glare as Elle continued looking at him with a mischievous smile on her face. He honestly dislikes the girl and now she's creeping him out. "Well, like I said I have a condition" Elle stated and passed a quick glance around, and everyone was staring at her with undivided attention "my condition is very simple, it doesn't require much and it's basically for Rus here to fulfill" "Get to the point already" Mamock said to the girl in a semipissed off tone and Elle just smiled at her innocently "Alright alright, I see you all are getting impatient and annoyed at me so I'll get to the point but first, Rus do you promise to meet my condition"she said, purposely toying with them as she looked at everyone with a mischievous look in her eyes, before her gaze settled on Rus.

Anna and Anthony settled down in their seats facing the children who were staring right back at them . They were all staring at each other intensely, the tension around them could be sliced by a knife. After a few minutes of intense glaring, Anthony broke it by speaking up "You all have grown some courage and I like that" he said with a satisfied smile plastered on his face. "I'd love to speak to you guys now but I think it'd be better if my wife does that instead" Anthony said and signalled to his wife to speak up. Anna glanced at all the children first before she cleared her throat and started talking "I know you all probably went through a tough and painful journey during the change but I know the pain is all over now. I'm going to talk to you people about the changes your body has undergone, your newly found ability and how to control it and basically everything you need to know about being a vampire" she

"Why didn't you tell me about it the moment you noticed the file went missing!?" Anthony yelled at Anna in anger and she immediately flinched. "God damnit!" He cursed and brought out his phone and made a call "I need you to find someone for me" he ordered as he angrily walked out of the house. Anna sat on the floor crying and breathing heavily, her entire body was shaking. She honestly thought he was gonna shoot her to death when he glared at her with so much anger, she managed to drag herself up from the floor and walked over to their bathroom, she definitely needs a bath right now. ______ Elle opened the door and walked into the house, she was expecting to meet it dirty considering that none of them will probably enter there to clean it but it was surprisingly clean. No speck of dust can be seen. "Wow!!" She exclaimed while spinning around to get a better view of the

Elle finished her introduction hoping to at least get a reaction but the crowd remained quiet after that and her confidence started diminishing. The feeling of unacceptance started creeping into her mind and she slowly began to step back. But all of a sudden they all started cheering and choruses of "you're welcome Elle" boomed through the arena, while Mamock and and the other 3 started laughing "are they okay?" Elle thought to herself while looking at the cheering crowd with confusion written all over her face. "You should have seen your face Elle! Don't worry it's tradition, they always do this. It's fun to see the life force all riled up" Ruri explained in between laughs and Elle released a sigh of relief, they definitely got her with that prank. She looked at the crowd that was still cheering and clapping for her and she smiled, she's quite surprised that even tho they know why she's here, they act like nothing is wron

Elle sprawled out on her queen sized bed with a pink duvet covering her lower body, she stayed up late last night after her discussion with Mamock and only managed to fall asleep after reading a book from the library. She was still enjoying her peaceful sleep, when she heard a loud knock from the door and she opened her eyes immediately. She spent the next few seconds looking around the room strangely untill her brain recalled everything, she sighed and stretched on the bed before she then quietly sat up on the bed. The knock came again and she muttered "I'm coming" as she stood up from her bed and walked downstairs. Her eyes widened the moment she opened the door, Rus and Demi stood behind the door dressed up in a running outfit. "You aren't ready yet?" Rus asked her in shock as she opened the door, she stared at him with wide eyes before she st

"what the hell is this?" Elle asked breathlessly as she stared at the sight before her, she just finished running laps and this is staring right back at her. Demi chuckled at her expression "These are the type of things your physical training will consist of" He said and Elle stared at him for a while before looking back at the arena. A string of tyres laid there, and right after each tyre is a punching bag hanging on an iron hook. After that, a high fence that's over 6ft tall stood there and after that she couldn't see what lays behind the fence, but she's sure it's another set of traps. "I'm sure you already know what this is, but to be clear. You're to move into the next tyre perfectly with both of your legs while avoiding the punching bags, yes, they will start moving at a very alarming speed when you start." He explained and Elle just sighed deeply and looked up "Any questions?"

"I bet that she isn't awake yet" Rus said to Demi as they both walked to Elle's apartment. "C'mon man, I doubt that. Give the girl some credit" Demi defended Elle and Rus scoffed. "As if" The both of them continued their walk in silence till they got to Elle's apartment, and to Rus's greatest surprise Elle stood in front of the door in a properworkout outfit. "I told you to give the young girl some credit" Demi said to Rus; who was staring at Elle in shock. "Oh! You guys are here, I've been waiting for over 10 minutes now" Elle said and walked over to the them. "Well you can't blame us now, we were expecting you to be late" Rus said bluntly. Elle looked at Rus with a sweet smil

The creatures stood before the graves of those that they lost during the fight, all dressed in white paying their last respect to them. "It is indeed unfortunate and painful that we lost our loved ones to this fight, but let us not remember them with sad thoughts but by their heroic deed," Ansel said to the creatures who had tears streaming down their eyes "the ritual has been completed, let us all go home and morn them in the comfort of our homes" he concluded and everyone started dispersing, going their separate ways. He stood there looking at the creatures till the cemetery was empty and he then turned towards Elle who gave him a sad smile, "let's go" he said and stretched out his hand which Elle took gratefully as they both walked to the cove where the wolves, the turned vampires, Ruri and Demi were all waiting for them. Elle cleared her throat the moment they got to the cove, drawing their attention to her as she s

Elle stood there glaring at Anthonio while he kept looking at her with a smile plastered on his face "let her go" she said with clenched teeth, making Anthonio's face morph into a scowl."Last I checked, I don't take orders from you," he said in an angry tone making Elle take a few steps back in fear "I should have just killed you a long time ago, you wouldn't have become a problem now and you will probably just be resting with your parents" he stated and Elle's eyes widened."What did you just say?!" She asked in a low and angry tone, her eyes darkening."Ahh, I never told you," he said and smiled at her "I'm not your father and Anna is not your mother. You are a stolen child." Elle whimpered when he said that."Where are my parents?!" She managed to voice out, trying to swallow down the pain in her voice.Anthonio pointed two fingers on his forehead and made a shooting sign "Dead, dead and dead.

ONE WEEK LATERElle was sleeping peacefully when screams and stampedes woke her up, she immediately sat up on her bed and started looking around frantically when a heavy knock came on her door.She stood up from the bed, dressed in the shorts and top she wore to sleep and took the wristwatch that Mamock got her and rushed downstairs, manipulating the watch into a sword on her way down."Who is there?" She asked leaning on the door with the sword raised up, ready to swing."Elle it's me Ruri! We are under attack!" Ruri shouted, almost out of breath. Elle immediately opened the door and rushed out."What did you just say?""We are under attack, the realm warriors are upfront trying to keep it under control" Ruri explained as the both of them ran off together."What about the others? Have they been taken to safety?""Mamock is in charge of that, we have to hurry Elle," Ruri said and increased her pace."Is it Anthonio?" Rur

Ansel stood in front of Elle, patting her head softly "Are you ready?" He asked in a low tone and she nodded reluctantly.Today is the day they will be going back to their time frame, she spent the entire night with the others having a slumber party and it was her way of saying goodbye."Let's leave already, I might change my mind if we spend a minute longer here," Elle said, trying to lighten up the mood. Truth be told, she doesn't want to go back, this time frame is a lot more lively and peaceful and she doesn't have to worry about a thing, but then she can't just let everything fade away because of her selfishness.Ansel smiled at her and pulled her into his arms "either way, you will still have to go back. You don't belong to this time after all" he said to her, rubbing her cheek softly."Shut up"He let out a little laugh before he started muttering something making Elle gasp in pain

Anthony stood before the mirror, adjusting his tie till he was okay with it. He looked at himself one more time before taking his phone and briefcase and walked downstairs.Anna stood in the kitchen, looking a lot thinner and paler than before, Anthony placed a quick kiss on her cheek and sat down on a dining chair "Good morning, is the food almost done?" He asked, placing his briefcase beside him."Oh yes, it's done. Give me a minute" she said, bringing out plates from the shelf. She immediately dished out the pasta and placed it before him "here"He looked at the food and gave her a warm smile "You aren't eating?" He asked when he noticed there was no plate in front of her.Anna sighed and shook her head "No, I'm not really hungry"Anthony dropped his fork and grabbed her hand softly "Is this about Elle again?" He asked in a soft voice, making Anna release a deep breath. "Listen, I'll find her and I'll kill her for making you go through this, and

"So let's get started with mind manipulation, I knew from the beginning that this will be the hard part for you," Ansel said to Elle, they were both seated in his office."So you were planning to make a full appearance once I've mastered the two other abilities?" Elle asked with an amused smile."Well, you can say that. You mastered the other two with little to zero help, so my guess is this won't be as hard as I thought it would be" He said, standing up from his chair and walking over to her picking up a book."You already know that everything is run and controlled by energy, am I right?" He asked, raising an eyebrow and Elle nodded in agreement. He smiled and placed the book before her "can you see or feel the energy of this book?"Elle looked away from him and fixed her gaze on the book "I can't see it" she said and placed her hand on the book "but I can feel it" a smile lit up on her face, as she cares

Elle opened her eyes with a smile gracing her face, the memories of last night flooding her mind. She covered her face with one of the pillows and squealed into it "He is so sweet" she muttered, taking the pillow out of her face and cuddling into it."Breakfast will be ready in 10 minutes!" Mamock shouted, pulling Elle out of her dreamland. She released a deep breath, the smile not leaving her face as she walked into the bathroom to freshen up. She dressed up happily, humming a song as she walked downstairs."Good morning!" She said in a sing-song voice, dishing out the vegetable dish into her plate. The others looked at her in surprise, while Ansel was trying to hide his smile.She kept humming a song while stuffing herself with food, the others kept glancing at her and back at each other, "um... Did anything joyous happen that we don't know of?" Rus asked, making Elle glance at Ansel before shrugging her shoulders"Not really..." She said and returned t

"Here's your schedule for today," Ruri said, handing Elle a piece of paper "you better get to it, cause you have lots of stuff to do"Elle glanced at the schedule and grunted, she already had a rough morning with handling two hungover girls and making breakfast for everyone. She was hoping to get extra hours of sleep, but as luck would have it she can't."What about you and Mamock, can you guys handle your schedule with the hangover and everything?" she asked when Ruri was about to walk away."We'll be fine. We took the tea syrup and we just need to rest, and our work has already been added to either your schedule or Rus' schedule" Ruri said, batting her lashes and before Elle could say a word, she ran off.Elle stared at her retreating figure with her mouth open, and eyebrows scrunched up "I swear, those girls would be the death of me," she ran up to her room and changed into something suitable for the day's activities."So first things first, vis

"Elle! What just happened?" Ansel asked rushing towards Elle, inspecting her body with wide eyes. "I'm... I'm... " Elle started, her eyes on the fallen branch. She took a deep breath staring at Ansel "what just happened?" He looked at the tree branch with a small smile, then turned towards Elle "We'll talk about this later, let's get back to the party first" Elle nodded with her eyes closed. She opened it back and smiled at Elle "let's go then" Ansel smiled at her and they both walked back into the party. The party was on full blast when they walked back in, the soft beat of the drums has been replaced by a band singing on top of their voices. Various creatures were simply dancing away at the centre of the field, while most stood by the corner drinking and people watching. "Where have you guys been?" Ruri asked in a loud voice, trying to talk over the buzz "come on let's go dance" and without waiting for a reply, she dragged the both of them i
