Crucial Desires Trust.
”There is one problem, though,” June said, as we all turned our attention to her.“What?”“Ms Laura, she..uhhh. She decided that it would be better if I didn’t take part in the races. She fears of me transforming again if I competed against Victoria.““Speaking of her, where the hell is she?” Eve asked.“She’s being questioned by Ms Laura. She already questioned June about it. It’s her turn now.”“Well, let’s just hope something good comes out of it.”“But that can’t be possible, right? I mean, June transforming again? She can control herself, I’m sure. She’s no threat to anyone...right?” We all stare at each other because deep down we all knew there was a possibility of her shifting again.She knew the truth, and we knew the truth. We just didn’t want to believe it.“Look, I’ll work on it, I swear. I...” She took a deep breath and fell down on the grass in disbelief, “I...I don’t know. I don’t think Ms Laura would allow me to engage in it. And I don’t want to waste each one of your t
Crucial Desires The Tournament.
--Day 1 of the Tournament--It was miraculous. I never thought that so many students were fond of games like these. They were going on for generations, that’s for sure. But I guess my thoughts of ‘the modern world taking over the supernatural one’ were rather stupid.We don’t lose faith in our morals and the way we used to live. We stick to our traditions. And we loved them.Ms Laura was calling out the rules. There were a total of 8 teams including ours. We were number 4 and Victoria’s team was number 1.“Okay, I’m a little scared,” Eve says while hopping up and down.“It’s okay, Eve, you don’t have to worry about anything. I’m here, aren’t I?” Dario speaks to her as he softly and awkwardly patted her shoulder.They both were weird and geeks, but they looked perfect together.“Okay, the university sure does change the whole cycle of the games every year, but there is one game that’s the most difficult. And that is the last one.”“That is?” I ask Max.“Getting in possession of the gre
Crucial Desires The Dark Forest.
“Hailey, look!” Eve screamed as she pointed towards a few scary, black trees. The dark forest, we’re here!"I look in the direction of June joins me. Since Jace was the second strongest in our group, he had no difficulty driving the boat alone.“Look, we’re late and already on number 5! We have to hurry!” June exclaimed as me and Eve helped Dario and Max climb up.“You both okay?” I extended my hand to Max, and I could clearly see he was hella shy taking it. Even if it was just a small decent gesture, he couldn’t maintain and control his cheeks turning red.“Ugh, come on, nerd,” Dario shifted back right after his lower body was out of the water. He helped Max climb up on the boat instead, as we all made our way into the forest.The surrounding trees weren’t trees, they were giants. Literal giants.“Okay, June. What should I know about this dark forest?”“This is a game of trust, Hailey. We can encounter anything here. From a fly to an animal. Anything.”“Even snakes,” Eve added.“Snak
Crucial Desires Resist.
“Hailey?!” I hear screaming and I knew I was dead. I closed my eyes and shielded my body with my own hands..before...“Hey, Grandpa!”Everyone looked around to see where the voice was coming from, but we couldn’t find anyone. The giant bunny ignored the voice and continued his process to crush me, but before he could see me, Jace had already picked me up and had me hide behind a tree with him.“Are you okay?!” Jace had his arms around me, he was practically holding me up like a baby. I could see his perfect crystal eyes, which were turning red.I knew that whenever a vampire is tensed or under pressure, their body reacts to the situation, implying a threat to others and automatically turning their eyes red.Jace finally settled me down, carefully addressing and securing the surrounding area. We were a few seconds away from the others. We could see our friends, but they didn’t know our location just yet.“Y-You saved me!?” I stare deep into Jace’s eyes. Suddenly, I realized that I had
Crucial Desires It's here.
“Eve?! EVE?!!”Ouch.. “Jace? June? Anyone?!”My vision was still blurry and fluctuating colours. The area around me was pale, yet all I could feel was darkness.“Agh,” I look down at my knee and figured it was injured. Blood was streaming down like water and I couldn’t find it anywhere near me.“J-Jace?!”I fell down on the ground and lay there for a while. Looking up at the sky, I thought I’d already died. It was looking so peaceful.“How did I get here?” I ask myself. I must be going crazy if I’m talking to no one but me.Suddenly, I see a reflection in the corner of my eyes.“Look, if you’re Satan, give me a second. My leg hurts even if I’m here.”“Baby?”I quickly got up, as I figured it wasn’t just anyone but my mother.“Mom? W-what are you doing here?!” I tried to get up and walked over to my mother’s side. “How did you..?”“I’m..sorry, Hailey. I shouldn’t have kept this from you.” She said.“W-What? What are you talking about?!” I asked, all confused about every single thing th
Crucial Desires Pay the Price.
The apprehension was growing as the trembling of the earth grew louder.“W-what do we do now, Jace?” I whispered to him. Before he could say or react, we catch a glimpse of the giant.It was....giant. He had two horns on each top side of his head. His eyes were big, his skin was dark brown, and his mouth was like a rogue wolf. I could see those big fangs coming out.The fangs weren’t the big issue here. The giant was. Even the small finger of its foot can kill us. The giant still didn’t know that we were here, so it’s a good sign.It turned around and walked right to us, taking the jar away, through which we were hiding. But it still didn’t see us.“Jace?” I call him. “Look, it’s braids. See that one on the left side? There’s a cloth that’s covering something.” Jace stared at the giant’s braids and figured, that is what we are looking for.“It’s the key! It’s tied to the giant’s braid!”“We found it,” I smile as I glanced at Jace, who was already melting in mine. “Good work, Hailey,”
Crucial Desires The Key.
“Hailey, NO!” I hear Jace screaming, and the Giant launching an attack, not showing any level of mercy. But I didn’t back up. I knew two things.First, I can’t let my team lose, not because I chose to be weak. I had to fight this off. Because, second, I knew giants are slow.Before the giant’s fists could reach me, something changed in me. My body temperature rose, my skin was burning like fire, my eyes went broad and my nails left my skin like bullets coming out of the tips of my fingers.What came were claws.I howled as I shapeshifted into a wolf the second I jumped off the cabinet. I landed on all of my feet in a perfect manner and opened my eyes, staring at Victoria right in front of me.“W-what the?!” She stumbled on the floor, looking confused.“Y--you can’t shapeshift. I..I knew you weren’t able to shapeshift..I..” Victoria fumbled as I smiled in my own wolfy way.I took a few steps towards her, showing my perfectly sharp teeth and growing at her.“This is exactly what you’ll
Crucial Desires That Crystal Orb.
I opened the door and revealed what was behind it. Sheer heaven. It was something I’d never seen before. That we all haven’t seen before.I walk in, and the others followed. I stare at all these orbs and crystals lying on the ground. It was the perfect reflection of the universe filled with stars.All these fairies, these birds, mystical creatures. Everyone was here.“We made it,” Eve says. And before anyone else could respond, our eyes lands on the shiniest star. The Orb.“It’s...beautiful,” say as we all make our way to the monument where the Orb was kept safe. We circle around it, holding hands.“Who wants to take it?” June asks.“It should be you, Hailey,” Jace replied, and everyone agreed.“Wh-what? Why me?!”“Isn’t that obvious? We won this tournament because of you, Hailey. Without your sharp thinking and courage, we couldn’t have come this far.“It’s not true, you guys. We all were in this together. We all did this together. Without your support and without you all believing i
