Lahat ng Kabanata ng Daughter of the Damned: Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 30

It was almost sunset. Robert was sitting at an abandoned, deserted car shed. He had walked as far as he could and his legs had led him straight to where he was sitting. This place was outside the main city where the Watchers Headquarters, Raven Towers was located. It looked like an average corporate office from inside out but only people who knew about its Depths, knew about its true purpose. The place where Robert was sitting at the moment, was nothing like that. Parts of the rusty shade were falling off and parts crumbled under Robert's feet as he walked in. " A glass of water please, " he asked as if there was someone waiting to take his order. " Something happened at work, is that right? "A figure appeared out of nowhere and asked as he poured that glass of water for his brother. One would think Robert was standing in front of a mirror. They looked exactly the same. The same height, face, age, hair and everything else. They were practically twins but were born one year ap

Mira's POV" Mira. They are after me. "Those were the exact same words Braze uttered before passing out. He fell right on top of me and collapsed on my lap. I fell along with him on the ground. My phone slipped from my hand. There was no way for me to access it, to call for help. I tried moving Braze's weight but he seemed unusually heavy. " Mira! Is that you? "I turned my neck to find Xen. He stamped on the piece of cigarette that he was smoking and then ran in my direction. " What on earth are you doing here on the ground... "but his legs slowed down as he saw Braze. " Please come and help me. I cannot move his weight. He lost consciousness. We need to get some help. "Xen did come forward to help but the light on his face seemed dwindled. He pulled Braze up and swung him on his back. " We must call an ambulance... "was about to make a call but Xen shoved me a little as he walked forward with Braze on his back. " No, need! There is a first aid corner at the end. Let's take

Mira's POV" Mira stop! Where are you going? Stop running... Mira. "One could only repeat the same mistake twice. Right? I was running at full speed again, without looking anywhere and was in the middle of the busy traffic, almost about to be hit by a truck that was coming in my direction, definitely driven without any speed limit. As had happened before, I froze, like a cat, on my track instead of running faster and moving out of danger. The truck was inches away from me, there was no force on planet earth that would save me. Or so I thought. Kian was running after me when he saw me tear through the crowd and huff away. I could hear his voice. He was still half a mile away but before I could brace myself for my evident end, he came flying at me. He literally flew in my direction,well it was more like an elongated jump that transformed into a glide. He wrapped me up under his arms and jumped out of that spot, gliding in the air once again till we both fell several feet away, o

The crisp rustling of fallen foliage intensified as an Akhashi ran for his life. He quickly transformed into a wolf and leaped forward and after a few feet, he changed back into a fox galloping as fast as he could on all four of his limbs. The Akhashi tribe from Chemora had the ability to shift between canines. With repeated transformations,they were able to diffuse the scent left behind on their track.But this particular Akhashi wasn't trying to do that. He was trying to shift into the fastest four legged canine because for him it was life and death. He was a spy ,sent to the Xoron clan. The Xorons were a shady tribe and nobody knew much about their territories or rulers. They never participated in inter-tribe dialogue either. A thick wall made of dense, thorny, carnivorous shrubs, marked the starting of their land. Nobody dared trespass because of two main reasons. First,they were monstrous, unruly creatures. And second, their territories were believed to be on waste lands, anci

Mira's POV We couldn't keep up with our conversation for much longer as the clouds around us darkened. The howl seemed like it was getting closer and suddenly it started raining. " Let's get out of here. We will talk about this later. I promise. " I grabbed Kian's hand and literally pulled him along with me. I was immune to the rain but he was sophisticated and delicate. I could not put my only companion in that desolate place in harm's way, not to forget that he was also my savior on several occasions. Kian ducked as I sped up. Branches and leaves from several trees brushed against us. Some scratching our skin and some tearing parts of our clothes. " Here, use this to shade your head. " I stopped as I saw a banana tree and tore its biggest leaf for Kian to use as an umbrella. It was raining cats and dogs. " You take it. I'm aaa... al... alright.. tttt... (achooo) " , he stuttered, trying to stop the sneeze but it came out amplified. " The rain never bothers me, " brought my lip
