Chapter 5

The city slept, but Clara couldn’t.

She sat on the rooftop of Mike’s house, hugging her knees as the night wind brushed her hair. The glowing symbol the villains left—AWAKEN—still burned in her mind. What did they want her to become?

The door creaked behind her.

Mike stepped out carrying a small device and two mugs. “Couldn’t sleep either?”

Clara shook her head. “No.”

He sat beside her and handed her a cup. “Warm chocolate.”

She held it carefully. “Thank you.”

Mike hesitated. “Clara… whoever those things were—they knew your name. They knew your blood. If we’re going to protect you, we need to be ready.”

Her eyes lifted. “You still want to help me?”

“Of course,” he said without hesitation. “You didn’t run when things got dangerous. Neither will we.”

Footsteps approached. James and Bridget joined them, both dressed in dark clothes.

Bridget clapped once. “Alright team—Operation Trap The Shadow Clowns starts tonight.”

James grinned, spinning his baton. “Time to figh

  • Between Worlds   THE GUARDIAN AWAKENS

    Chapter 10 The dawn broke over the city, golden sunlight glinting off glass towers and streets that had once been battlefields. Clara stood atop the highest rooftop she could reach, her pendant glowing softly against her chest. She had spent the night meditating, channelling the energy she had inherited from her grandmother, the strength of her lineage flowing steadily through her veins. Her team—Mike, James, and Bridget—stood behind her, eyes scanning the horizon. They had tracked the Shadow Council to an abandoned industrial complex near the edge of the city. This time, they were prepared. Clara’s heart beat rapidly. The Shadow Leader had stolen a fragment of her grandmother’s power before, but tonight, she would reclaim it and end this threat once and for all. Mike adjusted his tech visor. “All drones are in position. Energy sensors are active. They’re inside, Clara. And it’s quiet… too quiet.” Bridget’s eyes narrowed. “That’s exactly what makes me nervous. Shadows rarely stay

  • Between Worlds   BETRAYAL AND CAPTURE

    Chapter 9 The city’s night air was heavy with tension. Clara and her team had been tracking the Shadow Council for days, hoping to recover the stolen fragment of her grandmother’s pendant. Every alleyway, every rooftop felt like a potential trap. Mike scrolled through the drone feed, brow furrowed. “They’ve been setting patterns. Repeated movements near the old docks. I think they’re planning something big.” Bridget’s eyes narrowed. “Sounds like bait.” James gripped his staff tightly. “Then let’s not fall for it. We’ll split up—Clara, you stay with me. Bridget, cover Mike. We move fast and hit hard.” Clara felt the familiar surge of golden energy within her. She had trained hard, but the shadow of doubt still lingered. Could she fully control her power? Could she protect her friends? The team approached the docks quietly, the moon reflecting off the water. The silence was broken by the faint sound of chains rattling. Shadows flickered in the corner of Clara’s vision. “Stay aler

  • Between Worlds   CHASING SHADOWS

    Chapter 8 The city had never felt so tense. Even the hum of traffic seemed quieter, as though it were holding its breath. The aftermath of the Shadow Council’s second strike left the streets scarred: shattered windows, overturned cars, and the faint echo of terror lingering in the alleyways. Clara sat on the rooftop of Mike’s house, staring at her pendant. It no longer glowed faintly—it pulsed strongly, as if calling her, reminding her of what she had lost: the fragment of her grandmother’s artefact stolen by the Shadow Leader. Mike joined her silently, holding a small tablet filled with surveillance feeds. “We’ve traced their energy signature to the east side of the city,” he said. “They’re regrouping—preparing another strike.” Clara clenched her fists. “Then we have to stop them before anyone else gets hurt. I’m ready to try controlling my power fully this time.” James leaned against the railing, twirling his staff. “Finally. No more holding back. We hit them hard and fast

  • Between Worlds   THE SECOND STRIKE

    Chapter 7 The night air felt heavier than usual, thick with a strange tension that no one could quite explain. After the Shadow Council’s threatening message, the team knew they had little time before the next attack. Clara barely slept. Every time she closed her eyes, she saw the burning village, her grandmother’s face, the looming shadows… and now the message echoing in her mind: “The bloodline will fall.” Morning light spilt into Mike’s apartment as the team regrouped, exhaustion etched into each of their faces. Mike stood in front of a large holographic map of the city, pointing at glowing red indicators. “These are the energy spikes detected in the last three hours,” he explained. “They’re moving in a pattern… almost like they’re scanning the city.” Bridget leaned forward. “Looking for Clara.” James folded his arms. “Then we stop them before they find her. End of story.” Clara hugged her arms around herself. “They’re getting stronger. We saw how fast they moved at the ban

  • Between Worlds   REVELATION OF CLARA’S LINEAGE

    Chapter 6 The city skyline glittered under the night sky, but Clara’s mind was anything but calm. After the first battle, her hands still trembled from the raw surge of power she had barely controlled. The team gathered in Mike’s high-tech apartment, every surface glowing with screens and gadgets. “Okay,” Mike said, flipping through holographic files, “we need answers. Who are these villains, and why are they after you?” Clara swallowed. “They mentioned… my bloodline. Something I carry. But I don’t understand.” James paced the floor. “It’s obvious—they’re looking for a power. Maybe your family hid something, and now they want it back.” Bridget leaned on the railing overlooking the city, her face serious. “If they know your grandmother or parents were special… then they’ve probably been tracking your family for generations. That’s why they attacked your village.” Clara’s heart sank. “So all the people in my village… my family…” Mike crouched next to her, placing a comforting han
