Chapter 4

Special stood looking sullenly at Abel who was crying real hard.

She squat to her level and patted her back soothingly, she couldn't think of better words to say. she gat a job to do and not to pet some human girl.

she thought of a plan and giggled when she got one.

Abel heard her giggle and started at her to know what was amusing.

"Why are you crying over a horse. it's just a horse, you shouldn't be crying over it, special said and earned a bad stare from Abel.

"Right? she shrugged and continued. Look am from a very rich home and my father has a lot of horses, I can give you one if you like, just stop crying okay.she offered starring at her swollen eyes due to how hard she was crying. 

Abel gawped at her taken abacked. she was too overwhelmed about the whole Jeiel accident to even think about her offer.

On a normal day she would have been so happy to receive such offer but this was no ordinary horse. there's a human soul inside it.

Her Jeiel was inside it.

"Abel.. you're not saying anything,you don't like my offer? Special pressed knowing it was impossible for her to ever accept it but she could still give it a try to know how much she love him. Okay I will double it for you, she beamed.

Abel stared at her angrily and screamed ferociously. "What makes you think I will ever take your offer huh?

"He's more than a horse and he means so much to me.. so much... she paused and stared out tears. so much that you could ever imagine, she smiled and went further.

"To me he is family, he's the only person that has made me rethink committing suicide, I love him so much, so much....., she broke down in tears and resumed calling his name, listing out reasons why he shouldn't leave her behind.

Special stared at her amused. she's never seen such a caring human, she is like him but nobody cares. How much she badly needed someone like her in her life.

Hmph, she heaved and relaxed her chin on her palm.

"Hey, why don't you sprinkle him some water, she suggested and Abel nodded and stood up to leave but something crossed her mind and she stopped.

"Let's go together. you don't look so good, you need a bath, she told her and Special shrugged and left with her.

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-

Special had taken her bath already and was putting on her clothes. Abel was sitting on a rock close to the river starring admiringly at Special. She couldn't help but gwak at her blemishing skin.

"Why are you gawping at me lady? Special asked when they locked eyes.

Immediately she stared away and said afterwards. "I was wondering.. she paused playing with her leather of water.

"Go on, special nudged her and she stop to stare at her.

"Nevermind. I have gotten my answers already, wanted to ask why your skin is so soft and golden yellow, she chuckled. You must be living life to the fullest. you have maids at your Berks at call. Hmm.. oh how I love that life, she beamed starring dreamingly at her.

"Oh really? she scoffed. You're such a nut case, let's get out of here.

Abel stood up from the rock and they started up to the fields. Something in her kept urging her to tell Special about it after all she's a stranger so it could be of no harm to her.

"You know the horse... it's human, Abel revealed and Special coughed.

She needed to act up so she won't notice a thing.

"Are you high on something? How can a horse be human, that's ridiculous, she acted surprised maintaining a straight face.

"Yeah, she nodded.

They were now close to the field where they had left Jeiel and Abel thought it could be good she told her everything.

"I had met it on the battle field where my dad was killed by the wizard kingdom. He sat like a loner and stared at me from the corner of his eyes, I walked past him picked out a tree and attempted murder. That was when he spoked to me, she sniffed and looked at her nails.

"What did he say? Special asked interestedly.

"He asked me to kill him before trying to kill myself and I had ran out of fear, she chuckled. And then I knew i never wanted to die, why would I run away if I ever wanted to die, she sniffed and her sniffs later turned to tears.

Special walk up to her and hugged her.

"Oh c'mon Abel, you're such a cry baby, she patted her back.

"How... how do you know my name? Abel asked.

"You..... told me, she stuttered.

"No I didn't. I can't rem..

"He's awake! your Jeiel is awake. Woah! she screamed twitchgyly.

"Are you a witch? Abel asked all of a sudden pointing fingers at her.

"Why am I asking. you're a witch! she shouted with her eyes gleaming danger.

"Am not, she said innocently and tried walking away.

"Admit it, you're a witch.she shouted grabbing her hand at the process.

"You swept me away with some mighty force I couldn't withstand and then the scar, she said with her eyes popped out not letting go of her hand.

"The scar?

"Yes. right there on your arm...

Special checked her arm and it was there. she was so surprised, how come she never knew about it.

She stared at Abel then the arm to be sure she wasn't imaginary things. she should have noticed right?

Heavens! it was on her right arm and there seems to be bare.

She swallowed and stared at Abel confused.

"What's wrong with me having a scar?

"Alot is wrong with you having a scar, she snarled. especially having that x symbol.

"I don't... what do you mean? Special raised questioning brows at her.

"You having that scar only means one thing.. it means you're a witch.., she stopped and shot her a glare.

"You're a witch but how come you have elf's ears?

"Just get away from us, she snarled pulling out her sword, her voice filled with coldness and venom.

Special gave out a nonchalant look and with a weird smile she walked out of her and went to Jeiel who was now conscious.

"Jeiel. she called trying to touch him but it moved backward.

"I am Special from the underworld and am here to give that which you yearns for, she whispered grinning widely at him.

"Now I want you to be good to me because I am your saviour and am here to help you, okay, she fluttered her eyes at him.

She closed her eyes and focused her mind on Jeiel. She watched the tiny memories of Jeiel and clicked past them like her gallery.

Roaming through his head she saw an image of Jeiel and a girl so in love. it caught her attention and she paused to view it and immediately her vision got blurred.

What's happening.

She panicked and shot her eyes open only to find out Jeiel was gone.

"Arghhhhhh!!

Why does she always gets on her nerves.

That Abel girl is just so fustrating, she clenched her fist and screamed.
