XI. Outcast
Lowan - the following day...Living with complete strangers is really awkward. Since my brothers were erased, history rewrote itself in which I was an only child who ended up being adopted by a couple after I lost my parents from a car accident. There was no evidence of my brothers' existence; no records, no pictures, and the people that I knew because of my brothers don't even know me because in this new reality, we’ve never even met. All I had left are the memories we built together; however, every passing day was difficult because I feel like the memories get vaguer and vaguer. At times, I can't even recall how they look like and it hurts thinking about what I did to them. It hurts even more that both of them were corrupted in my behalf. I was just barely getting over the death of my parents and now I mourn for more people; two more people who never existed in my new reality.All these thoughts keep invading my mind as I lay on

XII. Agape
Lowan - the same dayMs. Reina and I caught up with the others. I finally got rid of the discomfort I was feeling a while ago and I was able to smile again. Without hesitation, I emerged from the trees to meet up with my friends along with Ms. Reina. Friends. I can't believe I have them. I deserve them; I deserve to be happy. With these people, I have a purpose and that's what makes me feel belonged."There you are! I was about to go back to look for you. Got me a little worried there," spoke Ross. It feels nostalgic to have someone feel worried for me. I was used to have two brothers doing that for me, now I have these people; not exactly siblings, but family. In the corner of my eye I noticed Cass with a palpable smirk on her face. I realize she was smirking at Ross and me. She's probably shipping the both of us together with that deluded mind hers!"What do you have there, Lowan? Is that food?? If that's food, That'

XIII. Maura's Will
MauraFor a few seconds, I forgot how to breathe. My mind was conscious, but my body isn't responding to my will. I felt trapped in my own body; like a nightmare I couldn't wake up from. Please, somebody wake me up. Hugo. Ruby. Pietro. Erika. Someone please. Anyone...Memories of my childhood flashed. A little girl in a nice, expensive dress playing alone in a grand garden while her parents were somewhere else doing business. She sat alone on the grass with her dolls and tea set as tears rolled down her cheeks. She was lonely and sad until a pair of fraternal twins sat next to her and played with her. A handsome butler served her real tea and a stern-looking woman with a pony tail handed her a slice of cake. Since that day on, that girl wan never lonely again; she gained friends, she gained a family.Seeing my staff's faces gave me strength. My soul struggled to break free from the prison of my own body. In a quick gas

XIV. Elpis X Eris
Maura I opened my eyes and saw a face just inches from mine; I sat up straight from the shock and accidentally hit the person on the nose. It was still dark but I could tell that someone was holding a torch. "Ow. Ow. Ow. Maura, what was that for? You just broke my nose," said the annoyingly familiar voice as he fell to the ground grabbing his nose. "I told you it was a bad idea," replied another familiar voice holding the source of light. "What were you trying to do, Noah?!" I asked as I stood up straightening my skirt. Lowan helped brush off the dirt from my uniform and hair. I noticed that Lowan was not actually holding a torch; he had a rotating card floating over his shoulder producing a flame. "Haven't you heard of CPR?" answered the bleeding Noah. This guy really gets into my nerves like nobody else. "What made you think that I needed CPR? I was only unc

XV. Black Cat
Ross So I've been wandering this strange jungle for hours now and I still couldn't find any trace of my friends. It felt like I've been walking for miles; I needed a break. If things go the way the stories go, something interesting will happen if I take a rest, so I climbed the nearest tree with the biggest branch. I sat there for a while, placed both arms behind my head, relaxed, and pondered about my friends. Noah would be alright given the fact that he has fought countless battles in his juvenile immortal life. Cass was probably fine; she had good battle skills and a keen instinct. Maura may not be able to de-soul but with her great tactician's mind, there wouldn't be any problem. Ms. Reina does not look like it, but with her vast knowledge of the dark, I believe she can manage on her own. Lowan. Hmmm. I have to admit I worry about him the most. He may have the power and all but he could be such a klutz at times. Don’t get me wrong

XVI. Pandora's Heart
            Ross            "I refuse to believe it. There is no way Cass is Eris," said Maura who sounded agitated. I guess they figured out something for them to mention the name Eris.            "You're completely right Ms. Calma," Ms. Reina replied. Maura, Noah, and Lowan turned to us as we emerged from the trees. She continued, "Cass is not Eris; I am." Maura’s jaw dropped and the boys’ eyes widened with shock.            "What?!" exclaimed Noah in disbelief. "You’re lying. You’re just saying that to protect that pretentious Cass," he added.            "How dare you?" scowled Cass lunging at Noah. Maura embraced the enraged Cass trying to hold her back
