Dark Queen

The shock was an understanding, but it was terrifying, that's what everyone thought. The whole room was silent until Irkan started, "This can't be true. A black hole is a tunnel to Voids. But only if anyone can survive them, how can you turn that power to living life?"

Chungyong looked down and said, "Eight years ago, I was a normal child, at least for me and my parents, if not for the world outside our Kingdom. We were happily living our lives, dad was the leader and use to deal with the big meetings about how can we increase the export, so we can feed not only our people but people outside too. My mom was blessed with extraordinary intelligence about biology and dad provided her with all the technology she needed. Then she grew things for us which proved a huge help in making dad's dream of feeding the poor come true. Then on my fifth birthday, they threw a party as I completed my first book, they were really proud of me. We were having a fun time until she came. My dad and mom though first that she is some kind of pirate or something, even when she introduced herself, we couldn't believe it. But then I sensed her power, the aura of hers was radiating, no living energy but still her life was to fullest. Never before in my life of five years, I had seen such a beautiful thing, which was breaking every law of nature but yet was so exuberant. I recognized her and told my parents too. When they understood, they were sorry, but Queen Anika was so kind to forgive her insults and told us that she has come to us to make an official kingdom. She then gifted me with a cloud, but no ordinary one. Chi is not just a flying cloud, it is much more than that. As for her elder daughter, we all know what happened to her. So we can assume that she has created him with blackhole's power."

Gabriel said, "Even if we can assume, we need a proof to believe it."

Frea gave her an eye asking, "What are you getting at?"

Gabriel said in a very normal and obvious tone, "We need confirmation. We should ask them, you know."

Hearing this much was more than enough to make everyone suck their last breath. They all looked at Gabriel like she was a madwoman but she just shrugged saying, "What? It's the easiest way to find what are we trying to fight against."

Irkan took a sharp breath saying, "Why should I not think that something has possessed you?"

Gabriel gave him a stinky eye and was about to make a smart remark about him as well, but Chungyong interrupted, "But she's right."

Frea asked, "Are you for real?"

Chungyong started, "We need to-"

But Mingyo first time said something without others telling her to, she stood up from her seat and started, "Umm, I-I think you shouldn't go." Her words were nothing special like before but it was the first time she protested something, she had never said a single without others guiding her to explain, neither in her house nor in her school. Saying just a mere sentence, she felt all eyes on her. Suddenly her stomach twisted in knots and she felt the heat rising up. She blushed furiously and sat down on her seat.

Chungyong being himself, looked at her with the most adoring smile as he said, "Don't worry nothing will happen to me. I promise I will be back."

Mingyo didn't dare utter another word as she looked down with her face completely void of any emotion. At the right moment, she just wanted to be all alone, but to her sadness, she wasn't, but she was glad they all again merged in the conversation.

Gabriel said, "I would have asked them myself, but I have never seen them outside their dorms. Plus, I have heard the rumours that two hotties of the boys' dorm won't come out of their room. Not even to roam freely in the school. I doubt why they are here."

Frea with disappointment clearly oozing her mouth added, "Now that you say, I haven't seen two gods either." They all gave her a look and she blushed looking away excusing, "What? they are kinda good to look at..."

Gabriel only rolled her eyes, but Irkan said, "So you want me and Chungyong to spy on them?"

Gabriel smirked, "I never said spy, tell me you're interested in their good looks too?"

Irkan just gave her a death glare as he said, "Trust me, I am more dom in bed then I already am."

Gabriel taunted, "I doubt you are."

Irkan just smirked saying, "Then why don't I show you my tape next time?"

Gabriel gagged at his words as she started coughing fake, she said, "I would pluck my own eyes before that."

This time Irkan said, "Why? You wanted to see how much of dom I am, why so shy now?"

Gabriel made an eww face as she said, "Stop it already! I am your cousin! You moron!"

Irkan smirked adding, with sluttry dripping at every word, "We can do oni-chan act, can't we now?"

Gabriel felt her cheek getting hot at the mention of oni-chan act, she was about to launch at him, but Frea interrupted, "Stop already. What has happened to you, Gabriel? Lately, you have been acting wired. We know you always have anger issues but these are now getting out of control. Is there something wrong?"

Frea asked as concern was crystal clear in her voice. But Gabriel was as shocked as others. She went all calm and thought for a moment before replying, "I...don't know..."

Irkan had known Gabriel for a very long time now, he knew something was wrong, but he wasn't sure if Gabriel really knew what was wrong or not. But he didn't open as he let Frea say, "You should rest for some time, while our soldiers work."

In the end, Frea smirked at them making a frustrated Irkan more irritated and a quiet Chungyong to sigh. As Chungyong stood up to go out, Gabriel started to cough, hard. As attention went to her, Frea asked, "You okay?"

She shook her head and Chungyong offered her water on the table. Gladly accepting the offer she gulped all of it and Frea asked again, "What was that?"

Instead of saying anything, Gabriel unlocked her phone, shoving it to her face. Frea snatched it from her hand and started to read herself, the more she read, the larger her eyes became and when she was done, she saw eyes lingering over her wanting answers, as everyone except Gabriel was looking at her face.

With an almost numb mouth, she said, "This year matches for pillars would be judged by Dark Queen Anika herself and right now she's in the school."
