"Mommy!" She screamed with all the air in her lungs. "Aaaaaaah!".
The man looked very confused and didn't know what to do. He drew away from her quickly and took a few paces backward to the foot of her bed and stood there. He look around for how to calm her down, but found nothing. And before he knew, the door of her room flung open and her mother rushed inside with the most perturbing look on her face. She switched on the light's of the room and met her immim "What is it darling?" Lilian scooped Lilith in her arms immediately, with fear all over her face. "Mommy look over there" Lilith panicked as she pointed at the strange man who stood tall at foot side of her bed. " there is someone in my room". Lilian was very confused, because she could not see anyone in the room. Despite the fact that the lamps were switched on and whole room illuminated. But, still there was nothing or no one in sight. Who then was Lilith talking about? "But baby there is no one here" she said being certain of her words. "No mommy there was someone in my room, over there" Lilith still pointed at the area of the foot of her bed as she still saw the strange man stand there without moving. "Lilith look at me" Lilian urged her daughter as she cupped her face. "There is absolutely no one here, ok let me look around to make you more certain ". She stood from the bed and walked to her wardrobe, passing where the strange man stood and walking through him like he was vapor. Lilith could believe her eyes, she felt like every thing happening was unreal or maybe she was still asleep. 'Did her mom just pass through someone or was this all in her head!? To make cases worst, the strange man disappeared immediately her mom passed through him to the wardrobe. "There is no one in here" Lilian called from the wardrobe and then moved into her restroom, and still found no one. "Nor here" she continue her search to the balcony of her room, and still found no one out there. Satisfied, she back to meet a very scared Lilith wrapped under the sheets of her bed. "Come on baby there is no one here, l have looked every where and found no one. Come out now honey, you are safe". She unwrapped her from the sheets and found her fidgeting in fear. She hug her tightly, trying to give her comfort. "lt 's aright now love" she stroke her hair as they were still in the hug. "Nothing will ever happen to you, so long as l am here". "Hmm" Lilith heaved a sigh of relief, as she seemed to calm down. She began to believe now that maybe there was no one in her room and she was just seeing and imagining things, and none of it was real. "You know baby you would never make a good ranger if you are always this scared" Lilian drew away from the hug and stared into her purple eyes as she spoke. "Rangers are supposed to be brave and strong at all times, not scream like scared babies whenever they feel that they are in danger". "Really mommy" her eyes became radiant. "And l believe my father is very strong and brave too". "Of course dear" Lilian replied with a sad smiled. "You father is very brave and faces any kind of danger by himself without fear". "From now henceforth mommy l promise that l will never be scared and will act brave all the time, just like my daddy" she promised with a smile. "And l hope to see him soon right mommy?" "Of course Lilith. Your father will be back very and will teach you more about becoming a good ranger of Triven". "I can't wait mommy" she gave her mom a big hug and let out a yawn as well. "Ok now sleepyhead " Lilian teased. "Go back to sleep now, tomorrow is your big day". "Ok mommy" Lilith lay back on her bed and let her mommy tuck her in again. She kissed her goodnight and turned off the light's before leaving her to sleep again. Not long after Lilian left, the strange man came again. This time he decided to talk to Lilith, so as not to scare her like before. He walked up to her bed and turned on the bedside lamp on the left where he was. The light shone on Lilith, making her flash her eyes open to meet the strange man from earlier. So he was real she thought but was not fully convinced. Without a word, she stretched forth her hand and touched his face to know if he was real and indeed he was. She sat up properly and looked into his strange multicolored eyes. "Who are you?"..."Who are you?" She asked him in confidence and boldness. "I would have said you were my daddy but my mommy said that my daddy has my purple eyes and hair and l have seen his pictures too to know what he looks like. So who are you?". 'Bold' he muttered to himself still staring at her in astonishment and not speaking a word. "Mister? I asked who you are" Lilith repeated as she didn't get a reply the first time and neither did she get any this time. Without speaking too, she stood from her bed and walked to her door to open it. "Where are you going?" The man finally spoke. His voice sound so rhythmic that little Lilith was very enchanted by it. He words where as if he was singing, as it had this very soothing melody. But that didn't make Lilith forget why she was at the door. "I am going to tell my mummy that you are back, so that she will tell me who you are since you have refused to me anything". "Hahaha" he burst in to laughter. His laughter was even more enchanting than his
"Lilith" Lilian called from outside her room as she knocked lightly and came in. She saw her lying on her bed and sleeping peacefully. Of course she wasn't aware that it was morning already and the beginning of the most wonderful day of her life so far. "Wake up sleepy baby" she drew her curtains to give the peeking light more right into the room as the beautiful world of Triven came into view. She tapped her a bit, trying to wake her from her slumber. "Wake up baby, it's morning already". "Hmm, hmm" Lilith groaned as she fluttered her eyes open like the wings of a butterfly, turning round her bed like she wanted to feel every part of it. "Wake up baby its morning and your first day at the institute". 'The institute!' Lilith opened her eyes immediately and stood from her bed. "Mommy l need to get ready for my first day at the institute!" She squealed. "Of course baby" Lilian chuckled "let's get you washed up first". She carried her straight to the bathroom, to get her showered.
*Nine years later*"I am so sorry baby. You were still too young to know of what happened to your father. I hid the truth from you, not because l wanted to but because l didn't want to see you hurt and ruin your childhood with your knowledge of your father's death. Please Lilith try to understand me and forgive me. Please baby would never hurt or wrong you on purpose. Please stop crying now"... Lilith sobbed to her pillow profusely, as her mother’s words reoccured to her. She just couldn't believe how her mother had hidden her in the dark for such a long time. Telling her lies that her father was a ranger among the Triven warriors. She had grown up, hoping to meet her father one day, not knowing that he was long gone. How could she have kept het in the dark for so long. She felt so hurt and pained as if her heart was about to tear apart. She still couldn't accept that her father was dead and she never got to meet him. Why was this happening to her? Not now that she had finally gr
"Hmmm something is not just right here" Lilith paced in her room with her hand creasing her chin. She just arrived at Nerwin and was trying to settle in before it gets to dinner time that they would be called to the dinning hall for their meal. She was done unpacking and she was sure she put everything in its right spot but she still wasn't satisfied with the look of the room. Although it wasn't big because it was just one of the institute's single room but she was sure that wasn't the problem because she found it just right and comfortable. The bed was cosy and the view from her window was the training ground, which was totally awesome because she would always stay training conscious. 'Then what was the problem?' She asked herself, with her eyes darting round the room like she would spot it with one roll, but she didn't. "Andreas l feel something is not right, but l don't know what it is" she turned to Andreas who just lay comfortably on her bed with crossed legs, not caring to k
She got a hug! By who? She froze for some seconds before drawing away from the hug to get a better sight of the person who hug her. "Nexine!" She called out with joy. "H... how come you are here?""Oh come on Lilith are you not happy to see me?" Nexine asked as he made his way to her bed to sit comfortably on it. "But l am" she hurried to say as she closed her door and went to sit beside him. "I am, l just wonder how you got to know my room because it has not been long l arrived". "I can't believe you just asked me that Lilith" Nexine looked at her displeased. "I am the son of grand sensei Velskud, and he is the head of of Triven's martial art's institute and all its aspiring rangers. So all l did was seek your file and and find out the room you were given and date for resumption, and here l am easy peasy" he smiled proudly, showing his perfect white teeth which really went well with his white hair, and added flash to his black eyes. Lilith looked at him with admiration. He was
"The most crime of a prince is being late to a noble counsel" king Radia raged on sighting Andreas walk through the door. "Why are you just arriving?" "I am so sorry father" he bowed to him in apology. "I take the blame for my actions and will willfully accept any punishment you wish that l suffer". "You know Andreas l have just realized that you care nothing about saving our world from this abyss, but only focus your mind and will on the useless people of Triven! You hardly spend time here with your people, nor do you search for ways with our star specialists to spot our location on the galaxy and set us free. Infact, it irritates you to help build our cosmic lumens in the reviving of our dead core. What kind of a prince are you?!" "I deeply repent of my actions father and l shall surely put my enthusiasm on bringing our world out of this void space". "Your apology changes nothing Andreas" Radia thundered again, now rising from his seat. His anger made him comb his pink mou
"You should not have sent him out like that your grace” lord Gerrant let out a sigh as he spoke in disapproval of what the king did. "He is still the prince of our world and his dignity must always be respected". "Oh please, spare us the sermon lord Gerrant" lord Varnaak definitely did not want to hear any of his words of empathy. "You saw what the prince did, he failed terribly in an ordinary task that was handed to him long years ago. I agree with the king that prince Andreas must not return to Gorgor again until he has found the mutant with the illumination ability". "But what if the prince was right. He is very powerful and strong enough to find the illuminator. His fighting skills are worth it and the range of his powers are outstanding. I sternly support prince Andreas that the mutant may not be from Triven, but from other planets in Omania. Let's be certain of our words, so as not to make rash decisions". Lord Gerrant was for sure not accepting defeat from Lord Varnaak espec
"What do l do?" She asked herself as she rubbed her face. "What have you done Lilith? You are a murderer"."No no no Nex" Lilith cried. "It was not intentionally, l didn't mean to do any of this. Please Nex you have to believe me. It is not my fault". "Oh really Lilith but you just murdered Lrya in cold blood. How could you even be capable of such. I might be your friend, but l won't conceal evil. I am reporting this straight to sensei Moran". He said with a serious face as he walked out on her. "I am so sorry Lilith". "No Nex please. Not displine sensei Moran. Please Nex don't do this to me. I might get expelled or even worst, serve a nation wide punishment. Please Nex". Lilith fell to the floor as she cried her eyes out to Nex but all her pleas fell on deaf ears as he just left her there all alone. "Oh no, no no!" She screamed into her palm out of fustration. Why was all this happening to her, why did she make the mistake of hitting Lyra. She placed her forehead on the ground i
Florate just had to let the tears fall. She was right. Her quiting the match even though it was worth it would make her to repeat a the previous level. Her stats would be brought down and she would join the current level seven aspirants and train better to get to her original level although that would be when her mates must have graduated. That was the main reason why he had Lilith get him disqualified instead of just quitting. Also, she was also right with the point that none of them would want that. In as much as they wanted her to leave the match, having her become reduced by a level won't be nice at all. So she did well by bearing the pain and he was so proud of her right now. "But I did it right?" she continued. "I got a point at least, didn't I?" "Although the sensei saved the results for later. As you both were injured but left for me, I can proudly say that my girlfriend was incredible. I am so proud of you Rain" he kissed her hair again. “I am so proud that you are mine
"Nanny Adelaide!" Florate screamed, obviously perplexed about Lilith's condition. "Nanny Adelaide!" He kept calling his nanny immediately he enter the main doors of the clinic and couldn't stop yelling till he found her. She was not attending to anyone, so she was free and walked around to check how the others were doing. She was startled clearly with the way he was screaming her name but before she could ask why, she noticed he was carrying a lifeless girl in his arms. "Oh my goodness!" she gasped before running towards him immediately while he too ran to meet her. “Thelma?" she called a nurse she had been walking around with. "Yes nurse Adelaide" "Get a stretcher immediately!" At her order, the young nurse left to do as she was told. "Nanny..." Florate found it hard to explain when he got close to his nanny he was already out of breath to. "What is it Florate? Tell me! What happened to her?" "Nanny this is my friend Lilith. I don't know, I just found her like
"Hey Nex!"Nex had beaten Dodge in their match against each other. He beat him both judging from the match and judging from their stats. It was not a surprise to anyone, Nex was strong, muscled and agile. He could easily over power his opponent if the person was not very resourceful as Dodge was not. He was strong too but Nex was always a step ahead of him during the match and that granted him victory.He had just received his handshake from his most proud father, not like he (Nex) cared and was now heading back to his room before he heard some one yell his name. He turned back to see who it was and he was not surprised at all."What do you want Florate?" he asked with a relaxed and calm voice. He looked like he did not know why Florate had to stop him and also pretended they were just casual people who stopped each other on the way to say one or two things."And why would I ever want anything from you Nexine?" he retorted, returning an angry frown for the calm expression on his face
"What has every one on Omania got to do with bringing light back to Gorgor?" Lilith furrowed in confusion. "Everything Lilith. Everything. Once light is restored to Gorgor, We will be free from the abyss Triven put us in and we will finally spot our location in the galaxy and you know what that means?" She shook her head, still not comprehending what she was trying to say. "It means that the door has been made open for my father to take his revenge on all of Omania especially Triven. And trust me Lilith when I say that with the height of the rage burning within him, it would be a death sentence for you all and sweet revenge for him. So no. I won't tell you how to restore light to Gorgor, for the sake of greater good" he said sadly. "Is there no other way to relieve you of the darkness?" she asked again, not really hoping to hear something good but she had to ask. "There is no other way Lilith". "Then we shall go with the first" she blurted making him almost believe she w
"It means I might kill you if I try to go beyond the kisses. You might die Lilith". "What do you mean by that? I will die? Why?" She looked a bit scared. "Listen" he held her both hands as he spoke "I once told you that i am not really here, that l am still stuck in a star with the rest of my world". "Yes" she nodded. "But I can see and feel you". "That is only because you have me in here" he touch her head like he did the first time they met. "I am confused Andreas. If you are in my head, then why can I feel your touch, inhale your scent, hear your breaths, Just why? And why will I die if you try to touch me?" she had lots of questions going on in her head right now and she needed reasonable answers to them all. "You only have those feelings around me Lilith because you welcomed me into your head. You made my story your favorite story because you loved me. I have always felt this attraction towards you since you were born and I remained stuck in your shadow till I found th
"Is that really a necessary question Florate? Well if you must know, I am here to see my girlfriend, Rain". "Your girlfriend?" Florate was now loosing his cool. "Let me remind you Nexine incase you are having some kind of memory loss, sight loss or brain issues. That girl lying on that bed" he pointed at the bed where Rain lay "is Rain Flake, my girlfriend. So you better get yourself out of here before I make you leave myself" he clenched his fists. "Don't be ridiculous Florate" he scoffed. "We both know that Rain truly loves me and not you. She has eyes only for me. She is only with you because I allowed her to be. But now, I want her all to myself so just drop whatever moronic claim you have on her because she is mine! Isn't that right Rain love?" he touched her cheeks as he spoke which got Florate really fired up. He had purposely got himself disqualified with Lilith's help only so he could get the chance to see Rain, to be with her. But now this idiotic Nexine is here! Claimi
"What about it?" "I felt this shock when I touched it. Does it hurt?" she asked with much concern. He kissed her jaw before answering her question. "No" he said with the most sexiest voice she has ever heard. "Then why did I feel that jolt?" "I guess we should stop here" he let his hands fall from her body, placing them by his sides and waiting for her to stand from him but it did not seem like she was in any mood to. "Stop here? Why? What did the jolt mean?" she asked again. "Trust me Lilith you don't want to know" he said simply still waiting for her to get up but she wouldn't yield. She rather drew closer to him and touched it again. "Ouch!" she flung her hand. "The tension just increased. What is going on? Are you alright?" "Lilith don't push me" he said lightly as if pleading to her. "Don't push you to what Andreas? I am not scared" she widened her eyes. "Tell me what the problem is? Why is your mark electrocuting me?" "You are not ready for that yet Lilith" he
"Congratulations Lilith" Lilith was cheered by many other rangers and sensei's as she stepped down the stairs after she got a handshake from the grand sensei. “Thank you" she faked a smile. To be honest, she really did not feel good about this winning. She knew she did not deserve it, she did not even do any thing, Florate just let her win only so he could see Rain. She wondered if she was ok. She tapped her bracelet to view her stats and was indeed pleased with what she saw even though she wasn't sure how she earned them. Lilith Amnell, LEVEL 8: Responsibility: 100%, exceptional self-defense skills 96% attack skills 100% emotional mastery 78% respect 99% honor 99% discipline 100% courage 95% strength 89% empathy 100% speed 85% counter attacks 78%. However, the smile on her face changed to a frown when she remembered that Florate's stats would be drained seriously after the disqualification. 'Oh my' she slapped her face, looking sad. What was she doing here anyway, she should go
Lilith gave it a quick thought…But why would she do that. That was going to drain his stats big time, did he not care? She stood up immediately and glanced at the timer. They still had three whole minutes and two seconds till the end of the match. She looked directly into his green orbs and shook her head slightly at him. He understood what she meant immediately. She finally got his message and wasn't willing to do it. "Please" he whispered to her and with a sour face, she nodded. She really had no choice, he was begging this of her and she had to fulfill it as a good friend. She took deep breathes through her mouth before running towards him with a grievous attack, the knee kick. She raised herself from the floor with all strength in her and hit him hard on the jaw with her two knees, one after the other making him stagger backwards and almost out of the circle. He would have just stepped out but deliberately leaving the circle would get the both of them disqualified and he did
