I was woken up by the sound of people fighting. I grunted and forced myself to get up and see what is the commotion all about. I peeked through a small gap in the door that I opened. Again, there were people fighting but this time it was two women.
"Hey, Clarise. What's happening." I said still groggy from my sleep. "Two minors got caught for fighting in an alley and it seems that both are from rich families and have 'Karens' for moms," she said as she air quoted the Karens which made both of us laugh.
After a while and what felt like the longest fight I have ever witnessed, both sides settled on having both children go on community cleaning. Clarise said it was just another normal nighttime arrest.
When things seemed to have eased up I went back to the sleeping quarters and took out my dagger since I needed to reach my one-day, one arrest quota. "Let's go!" I whispered to myself as I tried to fill myself with confidence that I could do it as I was very nervous for my first day on my special mission.
I then leaped out of the building into an alley where I detected a magic source. It was very obvious where magic was in this world since there were only a very few of us magic bearers.
I sighed before I sneaked up on that attributer. I was taken aback when she fought forcibly battling me with kicks and punches if I hadn't known better I would've thought he was a werewolf with the immense power he has since we would detect werewolves because of their wolves as it's also a magical being, but other than that we can't sense them.
Those series of attacks were then by a blast of magic I was flown towards the wall. I groaned when my back met the cold wall just right then I whispered a restriction spell then whirlwind magic swirled around the limbs of that bearer.
This time he groaned and whispered a cuss word. With that, I could only smirk at his pain. The whirlwind slowly crept through his body until it almost swallowed the unknown bearer whole. That's when I held my amulet to seek advice from an elder in the ministry of magic telepathically, but I was surprised when the leader of the ministry of magic, himself, answered my call.
"Your highness, Princess Lilan, it's a pleasure to hear from you again." The leader said, sounding genuinely happy to hear from me again. "Oh yes, same here too your highness. may I know what spell I should cast to send hind over so I can complete my task?" I asked trying to focus on the guy I'm fighting whilst still minding my manner while talking to the leader.
"Oh, I guess I have forgotten to orient you, my bad. It's just the simple transporter spell dear." He said, quite nonchalantly for such a difficult spell he told me to do right at this moment. 'Simple, Huh? Guess that's why he's the leader of the ministry of magic. Only he could say that a very advanced spell is an easy spell, what more is that I have to transport him from one world to another.' I just smirked at the thought.
"Okay, I understand, Your Highness. Thank you." I finally said going back to that telepathic section of my brain. "Yes, Farewell then, Princess Lilan. May you have the best luck!" He said in a hurry. Of course, he'd be busy. He's the leader of the ministry of magic after all. "Yes, Farewell to you too, your highness."
As our telepathic connection ended, I started chanting the spell which made the mysterious man lose all color on his face and turn pale as a paper. Seconds later into the spell, the mysterious man suddenly started quivering and slowly started to dissipate into the cold winds.
I sighed. 'Finally done for the day. A job well done Lilan.' Phoebe suddenly said. Though we've been contacting like this for nearly six years now, I am still surprised by her voice in my head from time to time. 'Might as well go back for the day now.' I said telepathically.
I went back through the window that I left open and just when I was almost done changing my clothes when Clarise opened the door to check on me.
"Hey, kid we're getting breakfast what do you wanna eat?" She said while checking in on me. "Oh, it's fine I don't normally eat breakfast," I said. "You sure?" She asked quite surprised. "Yeah. Thanks for asking though."
"Are you going somewhere?" She said eyeing my outfit. "Oh. just some morning jog and maybe I'll end up finding a job I can apply to." I lied. "Sure. Be careful on your way back then." Then she turned her heel towards the door and was about to leave.
"By the way, I just want you to know that you could always stay here for as long as you want. The guys there ended up liking your company here and that you were really-- as what you kids these days say-- cool as hell back when you saved me there plus you're still a minor so you couldn't really go anywhere much" She said smiling. "OK. Thank you again, Clarise." I said smiling.
"Stop saying thank you over and over again. I just did what everybody would've done." She said surprisingly genuine for the sentence she just said. "Not everyone would've done the same thing you know. Some people would've just given me some couple of money and or worse they would've just chased me out saying I was some kind of annoyance or nuisance..."
She just smiled in understanding and left. One thing I've learned observing people when I went out earlier or even here in the station, this may be another world, there might not be any all-out wars here, but humans are selfish and sly beings and because of this there are some fights they have to fight just to survive. And unfortunately, it's a fight much crueler than that of a war.
After several months~After observing the mortal world for some time now, I could say, I have already adjusted to their lifestyle. And all I could say about is humans are already complicated as it is, they even want to complicate the simplest matter. *sigh* I got lost in my train of thoughts when Clarise came in."Hey, you okay? You seem out of it these days.""Yeah ... It's just that I'm nervous about the upcoming entrance examination for the school that I applied to go to," I said half lying. "Well okay then. Good luck later by the way!"And yes, I have decided that I will go to a mortal school while I'm here since I found out that mortals have also been studying their behaviors and the ways how their brains work, I really wanted to study more about it and also, since I've saved up some money from working in a restaurant near here and I was also considered some kind of 'stay-in intern' here in the station I also got money there I also sold some pieces of jewelry that I brought with
I was smiling from ear to ear the whole while we ate. I just could not contain my excitement about living together with Clarise! Passionately waiting for the time to go home. "Clarise, excuse me but, I would like to talk to Lilan for a second," Ophelia said after we finished eating."Why, yes of course. That would be fine. Then I shall go to the bathroom for a bit then, while you both talk." Clarise said while excusing herself. "Yes, that would be very much appreciated!" Ophelia said thanking her for the privacy given to our conversation.I knew from the tone they were both talking in that they were trying to be as polite as possible towards each other, and I couldn't help but smirk at them as there was no need for them to be so polite and formal as they both will be seeing each other a lot now that Clarise has become my legal guardian as she's taking me under her wing.When Clarise was now out of ear reach, our little meeting about my job as an MMDT Officer started.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'Impudent dumb bitch! How could you not even think about that!' I said to myself in a whisper-hiss tone reprimanding myself. *sigh* 'Phoebe! can you help me here? Please activate the invisibility spell.' I said finally giving up.'Yes, Princess. Good luck on sneaking out Lilan.' Phoebe said her voice filled with a brim of amusement. 'Ah, yes. I'll be needing all the good luck wishes in the world.' I took a deep breath and chanted the spell.I jumped off the opened window carefully trying to not bump into any of the items and appliances near the window. Once I got on the ground it was an easy feat afterward and I just simply carried out my mission for the night. As long as I also figure out a way to go back into my room without being suspected, I'll presumably have it easier in the future as long as I quickly get the hang of it.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~2 years after~It's not been a walk in the park for the past two years of my life here on Earth. There have been countless instan
He groaned as he fell to the floor after I hit him hard. The bloody bastard deserved it though. He was foolish and ignorant to even try to piss me off. "If ever in the future you so even try to piss me off or even just disrespect me, you're going to feel a pain far more than that you feel right now!" I said angrily at him.I heard him chuckle lightly under his breath."Hey Kid--" He said pain still evident in his voice. "Don't call me a kid I'm already 18 I'm an adult physically, mentally, emotionally, and by law!" "Okay, okay now. You said I can't disrespect you, now hear me out respect is something you need to earn." He said trying to sound oh so mature when in reality he's the exact opposite of it. "And so is disrespect. I didn't say anything yet but you already started blabbing about some sort of bullshit nonsense!" I said. I felt Clarise hold my arm to tell me to stop. He should be thankful to Clarise if not he would've already died."Okay, whatever you say!" He said as he raise
I internally scolded myself after that incident, of all times I have to get caught. Ugh... Just why do I always end up staring at that handsome-- no, no erase such ridiculous thoughts. God damn it... I'm fucked~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Because of Pheobe's very alerting and uncomfortable awakening words, I ended up avoiding the shit out of Xander. and Phoebe just kept teasing me every moment she was able to. Goddess, why him of all people.'Because you have a thing for unsubmissive men, take Ryan for an example.' Phoebe once again said in my head. 'Goddess, just shut up Phoebe, you've been going on with this for a week' I said annoyed. She just snickered like a little kid and her voice slowly vanished from my head. I just sighed and rolled my eyes at what Phoebe said.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Later that night... God damn shapeshifting mongrel! I already had a bad day now you want me to have a bad night?! Wait a fucking minute! That energy, I know that energy like the back of my hand! It's Rya
When I got home, I ended up crying myself to sleep. The moment I woke up and got ready for classes, I ended up having bloated eyes due to my dumb self crying. Which just made Clarise and Vinny(Clarise's daughter who is about my age) worry about me a lot and led to a nonstop hot-seat interview which wouldn't have stopped if I didn't have classes that day so, thank goddess I had them. And as time went on, in the daytime I had those little banter moments with Xander that I have grown to love. For Example, there was this time when me and him were tasked to buy some snacks while there weren't any civilians yet at the station, and as he has finished the most paper workload in the rest of them, he ended up the one doing all the grocery work. He fought with whatever snacks we should pick, that jerk being the selfish ass that he is actually got some great taste, the snacks that he wanted to pick were those that I liked. "Hey kid, this is way better, cheese-flavored stuff can never go wrong i
Xander's POVLife hasn't always been that easy for me, though I survived through all of those hardships, I can't deny that my looks did help me make life easier, but together with those advantages were a fair amount of annoyance and more nuisances in my life. Because for every decision you make there will always be a consequence. That's how karma goes.Xander 16 years ago~They're fighting again. I thought to myself. Can't they at least fight tomorrow, today's my 6th birthday. Kids in my class are always so happy and excited when their birthday comes. But then, why am I not like them? I thought seemingly questioning myself.I don't even know who's at fault here anymore. My Mom cheats on my Dad. While my Dad abuses my Mom. I went closer to my bedroom door and peeked through the small opening gap there. There I saw my father beating up my mother. Again. Though it wasn't a new sight to see, I could never get over how painful that must be for my mother."Please, please stop. I'm sorry.""
Xander's POVI wiped my face with my right hand from disbelief and grief. We had, we had a child and we didn't even know about it. He was gone before we even got the chance to rejoice in his existence. We didn't even have the chance to try... Why... why do the people around me keep dying and leaving me? Am I really that unwanted?Sasha was still crying in front of me, from a mixture of emotions; sadness, guilt, shame, horror, and grief. Our child, our dear child... I went beside Sasha and hugged her to console her. Just what kind of fucking game was faith trying to do with my life!Just when I've finally moved on from that toxic life I had lived. Just when I've finally moved on from the deaths of my grandparents. Just when I've finally moved on from the longing I had for Sasha for such a long time. And just when... Just when I've finally learned to fall in love again after all of those things I went through. Just when I've finally met Lilan...After she seemed to calm down, we said ou
