"Is there anything wrong?"

I sighed. "There is something I needed to see. This body over here seems odd. My instincts tell me there's something off and I don't know why I feel like checking it out."

"Well, you need to check it out to clear your doubts at least, you would know what you're up to."

I stared at the guard who had brought the body."What was the cause of death?" I asked.

He lowered his head in respect."Your highness, I have no idea. While we had gone for patrol in the forest, we found the body lying lifelessly."

I shook my head."Is that so?" I asked.

"Yes, your highness."

For the fact that they found the body in the forest, it was something I felt I needed to investigate. And from the look of things, it clearly looked like an attack. But to be certain I wasn't mistaken, I took a close look at it.

I realized there was something strange indeed. I looked at the neck and felt something was wrong. Knowing that it wasn't a matter to guess, I needed to have a practical aspe

    SeleneI couldn't just get what was going on. It's been several months since I set my eyes on Everest and now that she had returned, she was acting strange all of a sudden. I could say that I was completely in a confused state. As a matter of fact, It was so terrifying to behold. I just couldn't explain what it was all about. I stood still watching all Everest did and could say nothing. I watched her being taken away. Afterall, I didn't give a fuck.Miss Phoebe folded her arms as she stared at me. "Are you just going to stand there?" I sighed. "Of course I am. What on Earth do you want me to do? Do you expect me to run along?"Miss Phoebe chuckled. "You're unbelievable! Don't you know what she's going through?""As if I cared."She glared at me. "Just so you know, Everest is suffering from an illness, a severe one. She has schizophrenia!" She announced.Her response turned out to be a shock to me. I widened my mouth in surprise as I exhaled. "Schizophrenia?"She shook her head."Yes

    Finn “I…am…Emily!" Caleb also burst into laughter."So you were the one who had taken Everest out of the academy huh?" She shook her head. "Apparently. Well, the academy was so boring to stay in and so I was in need of something to keep me busy or better still give me fun. And you know how that can be. I can't imagine that brother could be so blind, he was blind that he had suspended the innocent girl without making proper investigations. And if only he did a proper investigation, he would have known that it was Alice behind the whole thing. Caleb furrowed his brows in surprise."Alice behind the whole thing?" "Yes. And not only that, she had also tried to kill Everest but ended up killing one of the contestants." Having heard her response, I was shocked. I was amazed she knew all of this all along. And heard I was still investigating and was unable to trace Alice. What then, have I been doing? I wondered in guilt. Caleb folded his arms as he stumped his feet."I said it! I kn

    Finn Seeing Everest go through such pain made me feel a huge sympathy for her. I felt hurt to see her behave in such a manner. She was completely innocent after all. And once again she had to go through such trauma. It's so sad that I couldn't do anything. And even if I were to do something it won't change anything. As she had stood before me with a smile, I was helpless and totally devastated. The only way we could calm her down was only when she black out. I can imagine the pain she was going through. I clenched my fist in anger having recalled the response which my parents had made concerning her, and to top it all, right before my presence. After she was knocked out, she was taken into a private room so she could take some rest. But then, I spent some time with her before I decided to return to the palace. Having seen her in such a condition I got really pissed. It was all absurd. It turns out that she wasn't lucky after all. Caleb and I returned to the palac

    EverestOf course I know! And so also you are my only friend." "You actually came at the right time. I know you would never lie to me but rather tell me the truth. Everyone here seemed to say things which I don't understand. Tell me what they had done to Elena. I want to know where Elena is at the moment. Is that why she's in hiding, what did they do to her?" Adrienne smiled gracefully."Everest, you don't have to worry. They did nothing to Elena. Absolutely nothing! Oh goodness! Is that why you're panicking? Come on! Cheer up now, Elena had stepped out. She went on an errand. As a matter of fact, she went to get you a surprise gift. Besides, I'm not supposed to tell you because it was meant to be a surprise."I heaved a sigh of relief and burst into laughter as I let out a perfect smile, facing the others. "You see, I knew it! After All, I knew I wasn't insane nor was there anything wrong with me in the first place. So why would you all say that I'm mad, that I had lost my sanity? E

    EverestAfter a series of pains and tears I let out, I couldn't keep up any longer. I was as weak as a cat. While in search of Elena, I shouted and shouted but there wasn't a response. She didn't turn up anymore. I was confused and devastated. Totally exhausted!In my current condition, it isn't advisable as a pregnant woman to move about in such stress and tension. It could equally affect my unborn child in any way. There was no way I could stay back any longer. And having recalled all that happened, my heart hurts.I moved towards Miss Phoebe. She stood still as she watched me search for Elena. On second thought, Elena must have returned home. I concluded. All that had mattered to me was to find her as soon as possible.And from the look of things the perfect the place to find her would be at home since she was nowhere to be seen around the arena. I would use the opportunity to confirm things for myself.I stared at Miss Phoebe with a sad face as I reached out to her. "Miss Phoe

    Everest I staggered backwards in shock as my heart raced heavily. I widened my eyes in shock, it seemed my senses were failing me. What was all this? No! No! This can't be happening!! My heart beat changed completely, the fast rhythm felt like it was going to pop out of my chest. Paraventure If I was told such a thing would happen on such a special day. A day which I hope I would never forget as a result of the excitement I felt, I would never have believed. Who would have thought it could happen? There I was overwhelmed with Joy not knowing that my past would come hunting for me in the future. I must say that indeed, everything had worked out according to how Alice had planned. She let out a sinister smile as she displayed it. The more the audience spoke harsh words, pointing a finger at me, the more excited she was. So this was her plan all along? The moment she stated she had something to say to the audience, my heart skipped though I had no idea what she was gonna say. Deep
