While she’s drying her hair she hears her phone rings, someone’s calling. She answered it.
“Hello?” She said with a frown. “Who am I speaking to?” She added.
“Hey, food is ready.” a man’s voice answered. “Aren’t you Eileen?” He asked.
“Sorry but I think you had the wrong number.” she stated but when she’s about to hang up someone knocks on her door. She opened it and saw Carson standing there. “It’s me, Carson.” He smiled and Eileen heard him from her phone. She felt some butterflies in her stomach, it was like everything slowed down and she could only see Carson’s face. He flicked her forehead that made her wake up from her daydream.
Carson put his jacket on, when everything was ready he went outside and locked the door. He glanced at Eileen’s door and continued his way to Amana’s office. He knocked and the door opened. He asked her about the task that was given to him, his task was to stop a man that was hiding in one abandoned factory in the city. “Adrian will meet you there and you should go back with him,” he’s on a mission today.The man has a hostage with him, which is his girlfriend who knows nothing about promises. Carson must defeat the promise user and take the hostage to the academy to heal her and take her memory about promises.Carson went outside, he put his hood on and drove to the place. As soon as he got there he heard a woman screaming, he rushed into the factory and there he saw no one. He’s so confused, then he heard the scream again. When he’s about to turn aro
Staring at him while he’s asleep, Eileen saw the bruises on Carsons arms. Her phone started to ring, Tracey was calling her. “ Have you seen Carson?” Tracey asked and she’s worried. “Yeah, he’s asleep.” Tracey sighs, a sign of relief. After talking with her she sat on his bed and stared at him again. She can’t imagine anything worse happening to him, seeing him in pain makes her in pain too. Eileen went outside to answer her phone; It’s from the same person before. She’s not able to answer the phone when she saw Amana running towards her direction with Adrian and Tracey with her. She quickly put her phone in her pocket. “He’s asleep.” She smiled. “You okay?” Amana asked and Eileen nodded. “You sure? You look not good, did something happen?” She’s about to talk then suddenly her phone rings; the same number is calling he
Kevin walked her to her room. “This is my room.” Eileen was about to go in but he grabbed her hand, she looked at him with confusion. “Nothing.” he said but he didn’t let go of her hand. “You can let go now.” Eileen smiled. “Leen?” She withdrew her hand and faced Amana, They’re from Carson’s room. They were shocked from what they saw. “ Who are you?” Carson asked. “ Guys, this is Kevin. Kevin, these are my friends.” Kevin offered his hand but Carson didn’t accept it. Tracey greeted him and Kevin smiled. They went to the garden to talk about what to do for the camp. Both Tracey and Eileen don’t know about training camp because they are in their first years. While they were talking about what to do and what it’s like being in camp, Carson stood up and walked away. Eileen followed him, everyone continued talking.
Eileen quickly took her phone and she rushed to the training room. Panting as she pulls her luggage, everyone stares at her. She can’t believe that she’s the only one they’re waiting for; the vehicles are there.After one week of training Eileen was able to make a promise ball, and Carson was always there to train her. She gave them a smile. She sat at the back of the bus; Kevin was waving at her, she waved back but when he’s about to talk someone sat beside Eileen.“Excuse me, but that’s my seat.” Kevin smirked but Carson laughed at him, everyone looked at them. “What? I don’t see any name written on this seat.” Carson smirked.“Hey! We’re going! Aren’t you guys going to sit?&rdq
After arriving at the island they were asked to draw cards inside the box at the entrance of the hotel they will stay in. The island is huge but there’s no one living there because it has a barrier on it and no one can enter if they’re not allowed by the maker of the barrier.Eileen was mesmerized by the view from her room, she can clearly see the sunset there. After fixing her things she took her phone. It has 10 miscalls from the old man, the one who claims to be her grandfather.She turned her phone off, put it in the drawer beside her bed. She lay down on the bed and took a deep breath. She’s thinking about things that have happened to her since she entered highland. There’s many bad things that happened to her that she didn’t expect to experience.
After what happened that evening, Eileen can’t stop worrying about her friends. Carson noticed that something’s wrong with Eileen; he approached her. He tapped her shoulder but she’s startled. “Is there something bothering you?” She shook her head but she really wanted to tell them what’s going on. “You sure? Leen, you can tell me what it is.” He smiled. “No, I’m fine.” She stood up and was about to go inside her room. “Am I the one bothering you? If you don’t want me to talk to you then I won't.” he went outside to have some air. Eileen sighs and goes inside her room, she can’t understand why he acted that way. She wanted to go after him but she chose to rest. After an hour someone knocked on the door, she frowned and stood up. “Leen? We need to go. The boat
They went to find another player, while walking Eileen accidently trip. She frowned in pain, her knee was bleeding again. Carson rushed towards her, helped her to get up. She can’t walk properly; she’s in so much pain. Carson grabbed her by her waist and helped her to stand properly, taking her underneath the tree. “ You stay here, I’ll get some help. I'll be right back I promise.” She stayed there and endured the pain. The wound is not that bad but the pain is more than usual. After minutes of waiting Carson is still not back, she can’t endure the pain anymore so she decided to go back. Using all her strength she stood up and started walking, She stumbled, her wound bleeding badly. “ Eileen!?” Someone shouted. She turned her back and saw Kevin worriedly running towards her, she sighs in relief, finally someone can help
Eileen asked them to find Kevin because he might know how Luke went in. They found him in his room and asked him to come back with them to Eileen’s room. They asked him if he knew anything about Luke, he said that it’s his first time hearing the name. Kevin also told them that the barrier was opened once, it was opened when they went to the island and closed afterwards. Adrian asked Amana for the lists of students, they found out that one of the students was injured before they went to the island and was not able to go with them. “What did he do to you? Did he say anything?” Tracey asked her, Eileen trembles remembering those words that Luke said to her. “What did he say?” Amana asked her again but Eileen avoided any eye contact. “Come on, you have to tell us something.” Eileen felt her head hurt. The thing she only remembers
Carson remembered the earring that Tracey gave him just in case something bad might happen. He whispers her name trying to reach her and tell her that he’s been taken.Adrian found it suspicious because it’s been an hour since Tony left with Carson so he went outside to look for them but they were nowhere to be found. Adrian suddenly felt the tension and hurriedly rushed back to the cafeteria. When he got there he found Tracey talking to someone. “Hello? You hear me? What happened?” Tracey asks with worry in her voice.“Leave the academy as soon as possible.” Tracey looked at them and you can see the fear in her eyes. She can hear the panting and the tiredness of Carson’s voice. “We have to go, Adrian, let's go to the base.” They hurriedly went to Amana&rsq
Eileen sat on their table, eating the fruits that Kevin gave to her. The announcer started the event, he first welcomed the visitors then called Alastair to come up on stage. “Good evening everyone, I’m so glad to have you all this evening. I would like to thank all of you for coming. I’m so happy to welcome my granddaughter, Eileen. Please welcome! My granddaughter, Eileen!” Alastair smiled at Eileen. Kevin stood up and offered his hand, she took it and he guided her to the stage. She felt her heart thumping in nervousness, she grabbed the microphone. “Hi, everyone.” she shuttered. “I’m happy to be back.” She looked at her papa and her sister, they both smiled at her. “Honestly, I don’t know where to start, I’m prepared for the speech. I’ll just star
Eileen took a deep breath and glanced at the mirror for one more time, she’s wearing the blue dress and the black high heels that she bought. Kevin knocks on the door asking her if she’s ready. She unlocked the door and breathed, she smiled and opened the door.Kevin glanced at her and smiled, and continued talking to someone on the phone. Kevin offered his arm and assisted her going down the stairwell. Tony hugged her sister; they went to the garden to meet some guests.“They’re here!” Alastair exclaimed in joy; seeing his granddaughter in a beautiful attire. “You look gorgeous, how are you?” She’s taken aback when the lady suddenly hugged her, she smiled trying to hide the uncomfortable feeling on her face.
They went to the place where they were supposed to stay for the night. Carson looked for the owner of the place but he is nowhere to be found. They knocked so many times but no one’s answering, he paid for the place but they can’t enter.“Excuse me, Is everything alright?” a lady asked. Carson bangs the door, letting his anger out. He turned around and saw the lady, it was the lady earlier at the playground. “You’re the man earlier.” The lady said pointing at Carson, everybody was stunned.The woman took them to her home, a house with 4 rooms. The woman let them sleep there for the night. “Have some of these. I assume you guys are not from here. You should be careful if you're looking for a place to stay here, others are trying to take your money.” The lady
Carson packed some clothes that will be enough for a week, he waited until 11 in the evening and wore his jacket and went outside. He’s on a mission to find someone, he’s planning to look for Eileen that’s why he took this mission. He went straight to Amana’s office and saw them waiting. Adrian ready himself and they teleported to a basement where they usually talk about their missions. Adrian was not able to teleport to places that he had never been before, that’s one of his weaknesses. It's a basement under Adrian’s family’s house which is on an island and the only way in and out is by teleportation. They used to hangout in that place when they were in their first years, their father built that basement for both Carson and him. Now
He opened his eyes and sigh, he looked at his phone, he’s late for class. “It’s been a week.” he stood up, went to the bathroom, took a bath and wore his uniform. On his way to his class he encounters his brother with Tracey and Amana. They asked him why he’s not in his class but he just ignored them and continued on his way.Entering the classroom, everyone stares at him. The professor looks at him frowning in anger. “You’re late again Mr. Hale!” The professor exclaimed in anger. He sat on his seat, took his airpods, putting it on and closing his eyes. The professor clenched his fist.“Mr. Carson Hale. Would you please behave yourself when you’re in my class!?” Carson took his airpods off and looked at him. “I’m not doing anything w
Eileen opened her eyes and saw Kevin reading a book. She sat, Kevin put the book down and sat beside her. “Glad you’re awake.” He smiled. “What happened?” She asked, scratching her head. “Your wound started bleeding. Your grandfather was so worried that’s why we let you rest. I understand that you’re in shock, I’m really sorry for not telling you.” He explained. “Is this why you entered the school? Are you really my fiance?” She asked, frowning. “Here, wear this, your grandfather’s waiting. I’ll explain everything later.” He smiled and left her there with a simple blue dress. She wears the dress and looks at herself in the mirror. The dress fits on her well, the dress is up to her knees. Is this the time? Will she really meet her family? Will she remember everything? Or things will be worse.
