“Have a good life” Argon wises as I step out of the car.
“I wish you the best life of your choice” I wish him back and walk to the palace. The guard has smiles and opens the gate for me; it wasn’t long ago when he didn’t let me enter without the residence card. Now he grew so familiar with me that he lets me enter as its my own place. But sadly I wouldn’t stay long here. I smile at the guard and enter the gates.
The entire garden was in full bloom, every single flower was enjoying the sun rays to the fullest. The gardener smiled and greeted me. I greet them back and walk past them to enter the palace.
“You’re back?” Jessica questions as I walk in
“Guess I am” I nod and walk up to her
She grabs me into an embrace and almost crushes me, I try to crush her with my arms too. It felt stuffy, “Too tight” Jessica whispered panting and we withdrew at the same time lau
{A few months later}“Aish” I sigh and swipe the alarm to snooze. It buzzes again, I roll on the bed a few times and finally sit up.The sun was about to raise in a few minutes. I rush to the restroom and fresh up for the day.‘Today is another day we get to spend with our family' my brain says excited. It wasn’t many months ago when I believed that I would always remain alone on this planet with just my sweet buddy Oliver. But now I not only have I met my biological parents but also have a beautiful twin who chirps in my ear almost every second calling me sis. Such a blessing my life is.I stroll down the stairs quietly after hoping into a hoodie and jean; my regular casual outfit. Mom was already in the kitchen preparing food“Good morning mom” I wish her“Good morning love” mom greets me back and opens her arms. I rush into them and embrace her. After a brief
The chill breeze along with the sparking rays of the raising sun brought a red and bright shade to my closed eyes. I could feel the very lively surroundings and smell my freedom that was almost achieved. Just as I was about to my eyes I could feel the tiny weed saplings tickle my leg with the winds force. The smell of nature was so lovely that I would do no matter what it takes to never return to 'Zeon orphanage'. I take a deep breath and open my eyes ready for today's fight, Armed with strength and confidence yet no physical weapons. I look around and all I see is greenery and a beautiful sight.At 'Zeon, all I could see was the cemented walls. The only day I could see light was when the investors came by and the management wanted to deceive them. My friends, orphans like me would do anything to get out of there but luckily I made it. After what happen last night, I don't even know if I would ever meet them again.The chirping of the little lovely birds br
Jessica hurries to the table I was seated in with a worried expression.'I don't think we're on earth' I speak first before she could even get seated.'Yes I found the same facts although its the same calender year''Where are we, if not on earth?' I ask again.'I suggest that this is a parallel universe. We might have entered it when we touched the silver wall in the tunnel.''So the tunnel is a portal?' I find myself speaking again.'Yes, seems like it' Says Jessica puzzled.'Do you have dome cash on you? i'm hungry''Let's buy something but its not much. Just a little of my savings''Thank you Jessica. Once we're energized let's decide on our schedule.'We order the least priced food on the menu and decide to leave the restaurant with a bottle of water and some packed snacks for the night ahead. It's half past six in the evening when we leave the restaurant.
As the dust settles we notice that we've been surrounded by'Wolves?' jessica and I speak simultaneously confused. We look for a way out as the last thing we wanted was to die in a foreign universe and a prey to wolves.'Stop. We need to talk' We hear it again. We look around for a human but find no-one.'Who is talking?' I ask finally. A roar from one of the wolf drags our eyes to it. It is larger than the rest, with brown fur and grey eyes. It must be the alpha.'Did you find me now?' We hear again.'So you're communicating through our mind?' jessica asks mesmerised.'We wolves can talk to anyone we chose on our land through mind communication' explains the alpha.'Why do you want to speak to us?' I ask puzzled.'I don't like you both here, so i'm heard to warn you to return''And why is that?' asks Jessica.'You two don't belong to our world, and things that don't belong here are not welcomed.
I wake up earlier than usual on a sunday morning. Its just 5 am and i'm already ready for the day. I try to wake Jessica who looks at the time and rolls her eyes before covering her head with the quilt.'Its our last day here. We need to make it meaningful' I try to being her to consciousness.'The most meaningful thing I would lobe to do is sleep. Now get off my bed Laura' I hear from beneath the quilt.'You're hopeless. I'm heading downstairs.' I say and slam the door a little louder than required and hear a compressed scream from behind the door and walk down the stairs smiling on successfully annoying my only friend.I greet Grandma Liza and everyone else who were either knitting, playing chess, cards, reading a novel or painting some amazing landscapes. The kids were busy playing snake and ladder, word builder and a few of them were admiring the work of the elders. 'What a pleasant sight' I thought to myself. Maybe we could op
'Fiona accidentally entered a portal when she was 18, the Late princess was desperate to expand her power far and wide then and when She found out that Fiona didn't belong here she wanted to use her to gain power over the other universe as well. So the late princess made her train as one of her personal guards and Fiona was equally willing to accept the offer.' explains the princess in brief.'What happened then?' I ask'She served the late princess for two years and one day she started behaving like a maniac, as her soul in this world was facing an impact too. So we decided to open a portal and send her back to Earth.' she takes a deep breath and continues 'The late princess didn't want to let go of the oppertunity although she didn't know how to use Fiona to gain power over the other universe. She asked her to make a promise, that she would return anytime the late princess needed her' the princess sips on her tea and we look at her like desperate puppies. 'The wolves
We walk into the palace gate, through the screech of the metals, mentally prepared for what lies ahead.'Do you think she will hypnotize us into willingly sacrificing ourselves?' questions jessica.'Let's not talk about it here. I'm pretty sure she can hear us' I whisper and Jessica agrees. We walk through the creepy out-garden and knoch on the palace door; it was the right thing to do as we were an hour early than the appointment time. The large wooden doors opened automatically allowing the chill air to gush out from the inner palace. We get goosebumps due to its suddenness. The wind had a mix of earth and anxiety; the earth from from the dead and the anxiety was the two of us standing at the entrance of our unknown future.'Welcome, my lovely children. I've been eager for this moment ever since I met the two of you' we hear the late princess from the main area. We walk slowly towards the sound.'Greeting princess' I speak trying to so
The alpha followed by the pack walked heavily into the main area and questioned us again through the mind 'Have you both gone insane? How can you agree to her proposal?''Not this lowly animal again' says the late princess. 'I've had enough of your trash talk. Leave my grandchildren alone so we can go ahead with what we were doing earlier.''Did you forget the pact you made with the previous alpha? You swore you would not try to come back to life.' said the alpha following a howl.'And you lowly creatures swore to never intervene in my work' says the late princess by tilting her face and raising her left eyebrow.'We're here to warn you, princess. You need to stop!' stressed the alpha and we hear the words as clearly as someone spoke them out loud.'I don't need warnings from lowly creatures. Leave or I would have to force you out''Ma princess, please don't forget that its your greed brought you death.'
