2024-10-29 19:42:56Elle went up to her room after she dropped her phone with her mum, she took her bath and changed into something more comfortable.
She jumped into her bed, wrapped herself up with a blanket and quickly brought out the book and started reading.
_______
Thousands of years ago, the earth was one. The sky was still radiant and beautiful, the sun didn't hurt the bodies of the creatures rather it caressed them beautifully.
Humans and other creatures coexisted beautifully, a human child could easily touch the fangs of a vampire and nothing would happen, there was no blood lust, no thirst for power, everything was peaceful untill the greed of humans set in.
"Hey Ruri!! Look here, I can finally fly" A tiny cute fairy boy boasted to his friend while beautifully showcasing his wings
"Yes yes I can see your rainbow coloured wings Aiden" Ruri said while pouting, she doesn't have wings and she hates that
"Aww.. is little Ruri sad cause she doesn't have wings?" He teased her as he flew aaround her
"Quit teasing her Aiden, she's from a special specie that's why she doesn't have wings" Amanda said as she came out from nowhere with a stick in her hand.
"Hey Manda" Ruri and Aiden greeted the new girl and Aiden flew down and sat beside them
"congrats Aiden on finally learning how to fly and Ruri I've told you to stop feeling down cause you don't have wings. You've got something better than wings and you know it" Amanda said trying to cheer both of her friends up
"Hey! It's not better than wings" Aiden protested and the girls chuckled.
"sorry for the wrong choice of words Aiden, they are not better than wing, they are as good as wings" Amanda corrected herself, a small smile gracing her face
"Damn human, you're good at this" Mamock praised as she came out from the place she was hiding. She's a teenager just like all of them, but her specie made her look taller and older and on that too she didn't have normal hair, she basically has leaves and branches as hair.
"What can I say, I'm human and cheering up is my ability" Amanda replied her and they all started laughing.
"By the way where is Rus?? Is he still goofing around looking for rats to eat?" Mamock asked while looking around for the wild werewolf boy.
"Watch it Tree!! I don't look for rats." Rus shouted as he came out with a rat in his hand
"That's not what your hands say" Aiden teased him and they all started laughing at him
He raised the rat up and smiled "you mean this?? It's actually for you" he said and started chasing them all around with it.
They looked very happy playing together, so happy and peaceful that if someone ever told them that in a few days from now they'll not be as happy, they would have cursed the person.
"Hey when does the training selection start?" Amanda asked them when they were all getting ready to go back to their homes
"Next tomorrow, make sure to come watch us on the training field" Rus said to Amanda
"Sure, I'll be training too after all" Amanda replied and they all bid each other goodbye.
Life before the separation was really beautiful, it would have continued as a beautiful world but the greed of humans destroyed it...

"Elle, come down and eat your lunch. Your dad is back too" Anna called out to her daughter, who has locked herself in the room since she came back from the library. She herself has been apprehensive ever since she came back, she has been turning on and turning off the news channel too wondering if she went to the police station.
"No mum I'm not hungry, tell Dad I said welcome" Elle replied back from her room, not wanting to leave her room nor the book she's reading.
"Get yourself down here now young lady!" Anthony called out to her, she rolled her eyes and stood up from the bed
"Fine, I'm coming" she grumbled as she came out from her room. "Hi dad, hi mum" she greeted the both of them
"Is that how you greet?" Anthony asked while glaring at his daughter who was acting up, he definitely isn't ready to deal with the teenage nonsense
"Sorry Dad. Good afternoon parents" she greeted with a little bow and they all laughed.
"Why didn't you want to leave your room? You plotting something? Digging a hole?" Anna asked while looking at her suspiciously
"No mum, I'm just engrossed in the book i brought back from the library" she replied nonchalantly as she ate her food, Anthony's eyes widened with anger and he slammed his hand on the dinning table.
Anna and Elle looked up in fear "she left this house? Despite the orders I gave Anna? What if she went to the police?" He questioned them angrily
"But she didn't so calm down" Anna tried to reason with him
"Calm down? Did you say calm down? What if.." he started shouting again
"But I didn't Dad, the what ifs and buts you are thinking of right now didn't happen. So calm down" Elle said while looking straight into her father's eyes, Anthony calmed down when he saw the look in her eyes
"By the way dad, you work from home so which work did you go outside to complete?" she asked and watched her parents stare at each other wide eyed and she scoffed "you want me to be your perfect daughter who follows all your orders with no question and secrets right?? The try being the same way too" she said as she stood up and left the dining room.
Her parents always wanted to know her every move and she has kept to that, but they should try being the same way too.They want her to be open and perfect while they are the complete opposite, she barely knows what her parents are doing and in as much as she tries to ignore it; it's there.
The gap between them as a family is there, and the only reason they all turn a blind eye to it is cause of their imperfections that they don't want to confront. Her father's anger issues and need feel in control and, her mother's need for everything to be perfect and the want to please her husband.
She's the one that always felt the brunt of it, she ran into her room and slammed the door. She laid on her bed, staring blankly at the wall tears rolling down her face,.
_____
She stood there in the middle of nowhere, when she felt something trickle down on her face. She touched it and it was blood, she quickly looked up at the direction the liquid fell from and a dead body laid on top of a tree and it's blood was trickling down.
She quickly screamed and ran away, she had no idea where she was running to but she ran. She ran so blindly that she didn't notice the stream right in front of her and she fell in. She struggled to stand up and when she finally did she was coated in red. The river was filled with corpses and their blood had turned the river into a deep shade of red
She let out an ear piercing scream and immediately ran out of the river and continued running, but the more she ran the worse it became. She saw dead bodies after dead bodies, the earth dried their blood till it couldn't no more and their blood just flowed on the ground
With each step she took she got more scared and everything got more horrifying, she thought she was going to pass out when she saw the little girl again, staring at her with bloodshot eyes and this time both of them mouthed "help"
_____
Elle quickly woke up with a gasp and sweat all over her body, she quickly touched her face and when she felt nothing apart from sweat she heaved a sign of relief "slept to escape a nightmare just to meet another nightmare" she muttered as she curled up in her blanket.
But her eyes met the book she left on her table and she realized something, she quickly stood up and grabbed it. She opened up to the page that described the children's feature and she immediately dropped the book in shock.
"You've got to be kidding me" she muttered as she stared at the page she opened, the little girl in her dreams fit so perfectly with Amanda's description.

Elle stared at the book in her hands for a while before she started chuckling "This really is fucked up" she said. When her laughter died down she took the book and went up to her bed, she opened up to the page she stopped at and took a very deep breath before she continued reading the book again. ______ "Common Manda let's go" Alicia, Amanda's younger sister called out to her in an annoyed manner. She wants to get to the training arena early so that she can get to sit at the front and watch the training selection. Amanda sighed and muttered "I'm coming". She isn't as excited as Alicia because she will be training too and she'll be super embarrassed if she doesn't get selected to be trained by the higher ranking. Training has always been a very important thing for

Elle and her parents were currently stting in the dinning room and it was really awkward, no one talked to the other person neither was anyone eating. Elle sighed and rubbed her forehead, she really didn't have the time for all this. She wasn't able to sleep last night cause of the repeating nightmares and right now, she just wants to go back to her room and finish reading the book, she picked up her spoon and started eating. "where are your manners young girl?" Her father asked her the time she was about to put her fifth spoon in her mouth, she angrily slammed the spoon on the dinning table "I guess they went on a vacation" she replied and left the dinning room. Anna looked at her daughter's retreating figure and back at her husband, she doesn't want her family shattering right now "why don't you just talk to her quietly Anthony"

The children looked at the stranger skeptically, he looked their age but they've never seen him around before. "Hello? I said I'm Ansel" The boy said while waving his hands over their faces "Where are you from? We've never seen you around before" Mamock asked the question that is on everyone's mind "And how are you so sure you've never seen me before?" Ansel asked as he stepped closer to them, they all looked at each other and kept quiet "well, you are right. You've never seen me before and before you ask, it's because I'm a rare specie that chooses when he wants to show himself" "Umm.. we would appreciate it if you are a little bit clearer" Amanda said and the boy looked her with a smile on his face before he replied "Well, you can say I'm a God" he said in a cock

"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

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. She wants a definite answer from him before she conti

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

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. They were stupid enough to refuse the deal I made t

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
