Kalama
Hunched over with the taste of bile in my mouth, I inhaled and exhaled, trying to calm my racing, aching heart.

Apocalypse Elements Book One: Fire The Young Women
KalamaThe sight had me frozen to the ground. The cavernous room was a holding cell and looked more of a torture chamber with all the iron shackles hanging from the walls. It was dark and damp, the stone walls were black with grime, there were no windows in there. The only light in the room came from some torches mounted on the filthy walls.There were big slabs of stone tables in the middle of the room, with leather straps, I counted five tables. Two had big black spots on them. The spots made me queasy, as I was sure those were bodily fluids. And judging by the red, brownish color they had, it's most likely to be blood.And the smell in that room had me gagging. The foulest stench I have ever encountered . It was a mixture of rotting flesh and musty, earthy scents such as sweaty socks. It was a very pungent smell. A scent that crawled into your pores.However, none of these things mattered when I saw the three young women that were locked up in this vast room.The sight of them made
Apocalypse Elements Book One: Fire The Disappearing Act
KalamaJust standing there in the middle of the entrance of the castle stood none other than Antone Grim.I have to think quickly, if we were found by him, I really don’t want to know what he will do to us. By the look on his face, he is not in a good mood. He had his jaw clenched, hands balled into fists, and his eyes were darting everywhere.I tried to see which direction he was going without being discovered, before I got back to the women. I looked again around the corner and to my horror, I saw him coming towards us.I turned swiftly and as soundlessly as I could and ran back to the women. I saw some other rooms in this hall. If we could hide and wait for Antone to go back from where he came, we might have a chance to escape.While I ran back I checked the doors, to see which ones were open, heart beating in my throat. The next-to-last door on the left before the staircase was not locked. “We have to hide in here quickly.” I told the women, not even bothering to see what was in

KalamaI let out a breath I didn’t know I was holding. What the heck is going on? I stood up cautiously, looking everywhere, almost expecting Antone to materialize back.The tall woman with the emerald green eyes stood up and walked towards the massive wooden door. Reaching for her arm and miss. “Hey wait, we don’t know if he will come back, or if this castle is empty?” I said, my voice came out tight with nervousness, while I followed her to the door.She stopped and turned to look me straight in the eyes with those blazing emerald eyes of hers. They looked ancient. “Kalama, I don’t want to wait for him to come back.” I saw a shiver run over her entire body when she said that. “And we need to get my little sister somewhere safe, where she can recover from our ordeal. So can we please join my sisters outside?” She said with a bit of sharpness in her tone, while she kept my gaze.With no hesitation at all, I walked past her toward and through the enormous wooden door. I did not know w
