Hehehe
Emma bobbled her head, obviously pleased with the set of clothes she was wearing. "Now, you are talking…" She muttered, smoothening invisible creases on the dark green polo that accentuated the color of her eyes.The polo and jeans fitted her properly, even though the trousers were a bit tight. She could manage. She thought. Until she got home. At least it was better than wearing the princess gown all around the place. Apart from the fact that she always chose comfortability over the whole classic stuff, she felt that she was devaluing the beautiful gown by wearing it all over the place."You okay with it?" Lily asked, standing up from the sofa."Yeah, It's preferable," Emma replied, glancing at her."Where did you get it?" She asked, noting that the clothes she was wearing would be too big for a twelve-year-old."I got it from Cossy. She is my brother's girlfriend. It took a while convincing her though. With luck and time on our side, we might go shopping today. I don't want to be p
The neat, but bustling streets reminded Emma of the elites' area in Florida. But she thought that the streets here were of a much higher end, and it was for everybody. She concluded that Zipfarah was a good queen. She saw some elves across the road. They were getting a fried snack from a snack shop. Everything and everywhere was just so orderly and peaceful. The air was neat too. She would have loved to stay here for more days, but there was Derek's birthday to attend to. She decided that she would come back here, perhaps for the holidays. She would have loved to take pictures of the scenery but her phone was absent. As she walked along with the little girl, her mind although appraising her environment, still sometimes wandered to the reality of the evil witch being a good witch's daughter. What had caused their separation? The little girl hadn't said a word, except to tell her somethings about the area since they had left the mansion. She could tell that the latter's mood had been
"Emma, this is so cool!!!!"Lily screamed for the second time after Emma had convinced her to open her eyes.When they had taken their seats on the ferry's wheels, she had immediately shut her eyes, following Emma's promise earlier, whilst ignoring the chuckle she had heard escaped from the latter's lips. And when the moderator had made an announcement and had wanted to shut the short gate, she had almost zoomed out of the seat, but it was like the latter had anticipated the move, and had hugged her to herself, whilst whispering into her ears to take deep breaths and trust her.And she had done so.It had taken some minutes of coaxing before she had finally opened her eyes. It had taken more than her own guts to do that knowing that the fun machine had been in its highest level and speed. At that moment, before she had opened her eyes, she had decided that she would cast a spell of time-halt if she wasn't still comfortable, or wanted to disappear.But it had turned out that she hadn't
Emma felt a drop of a cold liquid on her face, then another, until it was dripping. A bit confused, she opened her eyes tiredly and took in her surroundings. It was dark already. Night fall then. She thought, as she did a rewind of the activities of the day, and how come she was outside by this time, sleeping on a bench, under a tree.She jerked up her head from its reclining position on the bark of tree, as the memories infused her back to a thoroughly conscious state. They had slept off, after a long discussion on family and friends.She had learnt that Damon and Daniel were Lily's twin elder brothers. Their parents were dead. Lily hadn't said anything regarding that. She had skipped the issue to how they had met Prescott. They had found the squirrel wounded in the forest when they had gone to look for a particular herb that had been suggested by their grandmother. While there, they had heard the animal talk, or rather curse at certain turn of events. They had communicated with it t
"Who doesn't know Lily? You aren't even curious about how I came to know yours?" The strange guy asked Emma, as he crossed his arms on his chest. "Not really." Emma shrugged. "Everyone around here seems to know my name for some reason they don't want to talk about. So, I stopped asking the how and why questions." She replied. "I see…not your fault though…you are quite famous." The guy who Emma guessed should be around Anthony's age said. "Famous for what?" Emma muttered tiredly, obviously exasperated with this fact that seemed to be more common than water nowadays. Why was she famous? She has only been here for a month plus, doing nothing other than going to school and frolicking with Derek. Or was it because she was Derek's girlfriend? Did they need her, so that they can get to Derek and the pack? She remembered then the dream she had had for two consecutive times. It was surety that her boyfriend had been that wolf with blue eyes, the wolf that had died trying to protect her fr
Emma grinned as she watched the variety of emotions display on Draco's face. The latter was of course puzzled as to why she had insulted him without an inch of fear. He was bamboozled. "What did you say?" He asked, stepping closer to her, his fists clenched tight, and his face masked with fury, and a little pinch of surprise, more like amazement. "You want to die?" He queried, with a sardonic smile on his face. "We will see who dies first." Emma uttered with a smirk which seemed to have infuriated Draco, because in the next second, he was lunging for her neck, but then, his mission was cut off by an invisible force which threw him far away from her. "What took you guys so long?" She asked, as a smile widened on her lips. "We were eating." Prescott said, with a shrug. Leila was beside him. Emma scoffed. Trust Prescott to remind her that he had eaten her breakfast. But that wasn't a case for tonight. Now, she was grateful that he had saved them. He and Leila. She had seen the bot
"Emma, you have to let us explain and clarify ourselves." Prescott said as he shifted his gaze to Emma. Following Daniel's train of thoughts, he had discovered some bits of what had happened between the duo, and the only thing he could think was that his friend had messed up big time, and that had been the reason why he had actually pushed him away when he had tried to touch the redhead. He could understand what the redhead was feeling now. He had been there, once."There is no need for that, Prescott. I only need to speak with Zipfarah." Emma replied."Can we be going?" She asked, even as she turned aside to glance at Daniel who was trying to get up from the ground. She noticed that his face was smeared with a dark brown stuff.Cow dung! She couldn't be happier.Serves him right. She thought, looking at his decorated face in satisfaction."I need to speak with Zipfarah. Can we be going? Don't you have an iota of respect for our queen?" Leila asked, after mimicking Emma's voice, appar
Double knocks on the door had Derek lifting his head from its bent position. Who was that? He didn't want to see anybody still, especially after the doctor's declaration after the morning's breakfast.When he had ventured into the pack house with Maya after the rigorous personal trainings, he had met the pack's doctor discussing some issues with his parents, but he had ignored them, since after all he hadn't been able to listen in on their conversations, and had gone off to the kitchen with his cousin, only coming out when he had heard his mother call out his name. It had grated on his nerves then that he hadn't been able to hear her speak through the mind link.Meeting them in the sitting room, he had gotten tensed up when he had seen the grave looks on their faces, including Anthony.And when they had broken the news to him, when the pack's doctor had informed him of the futuristic effects of the orb which was discovered to have been an instrument of control and death, created by a
