Semua Bab HELION MARY.: Bab 1 - Bab 10

We were just a family of four trying to survive somewhere in the big country of Claudia. I am my mother's first daughter, Helion is the name and I have a younger sister who I am five years older than. Yuvonne is having a hard time settling with the fact that our dad is gone for good. I don't quite blame her because she's just fifteen years and dad had been her best friend before the sudden break up with mum. We use to be an average family because my dad worked in the fish factory at the end of the town. And, well, my mum was a non-academic staff at Make It highschool where I and Yuvonne schooled. We were a one happy contented family who could put up with three square meals every day and fish was inevitable, my mum gives us different recipes of fish foods with the leftovers dad comes home with; fish barbecue, fish and bread, fish fries and Yuvonne's best, fish sauce.But one day, something I perceived as a normal couple misunderstanding and fight got so intense that mum was yelling and

I broke down and I cried my eyes out hugging my pillow. The past weeks had been hell for me and Yuvonne, I hated dad for leaving us in this trying times. From mum's story the other night, I learnt that dad may or may not be my biological father. Mum had a very dark story growing up and she doesn't share alot. I felt like I don't know my mum and there is more to what she had not and would never tell me. She mentioned also that she had three sisters and a brother, where will they be now? Aren't family supposed to look out for each other? At this point I knew that if some how mum doesn't come back, the responsibility would automatically be shifted to me and I don't think I'm ready for that, I can survive on my own but then what about Yuvonne?I went to Yuvonne and I asked her to give me her hands, she did and I prayed for mum's safety as we hugged each other, slept and hoped to see tomorrow.Tomorrow came and she was nowhere, I dialed her line but it was not connecting, I stayed calm an

The next day was hectic. We were woken up by a very huge bell, we wore our sweat pants and went out to the field for morning exercise by 5:00am. With my sleepy eyes, I almost fell on my way to the field, Yuvonne is an early waker so she had no problem with that instead, she made fun of me. " Hehe, girl I almost forgot you are a log, don't worry, I will catch you if you fall" " They could have allowed us to atleast wash our fucking mouth or even face" I said after I checked my breath, damn it was bad."Welcome to Marshalls love" She mocked as she held me and we walked to the field to join the others. Bull, Julius Arms was already at the field with his deputy as they guided our exercise routine. During our resting time, a girl walked up to us with a paper. She was putting on a double lensed eyes aid, it made her look like a nerd but she was gorgeous by the way." Hola!, you are the occupants of uhmm room 101?""Right" I answered drinking from my flask not looking away from her. "Is t

It was a Saturday morning. Yes, it's been couple of weeks and I and Yuvonne are getting comfortable with the people around us. But I can tell you, I am not yet comfortable with the environment.Mercury is doing well with the Vikings language learning and I have been patiently waiting for her to get there.On the walls of all the berets camp is the Viking's language, the reception not left out. Like every other day, we woke up, went for morning exercise, I could see myself growing muscles and getting light by the day. Our orientation classes ended few days ago and we have learnt a lot.After the morning exercise, we went in to shower and dress up for the day, I am still getting used to a uniform everyday.We went to the refectory for our breakfast. I also happened to make another girlfriend from my camp, Asher, she had a social spirit, driven and intelligent and was very good with handling guns and weapons. Mercury came out of the dorm very late, which is strange because she rises even

I went to the infirmary the next day. Of course, not by myself. Yuvonne passed the news to Mercury and Asher who came running to meet me. "Well, I somehow knew he was going to confront you. But he is a cunt to lay his fornicating fingers on you. Feeling better?"Mercury asked. "Better than last night." I answered.Asher gave me a hug as she and Yuvonne left to get our breakfast from the refectory."I have a good news, Hel." She looked around to make sure no one was listening. Then she bent towards me as she whispered. "I know what the words on the Alphas walls says" "That's a job well done Cury. Tell me what it says" "You gotta be kidding me Hel. You just shortened Mercury, Jesus, you are impossible." She said as she opened her book to find it. "Cury is easy going, I don't want to be stressed regarding my condition." I told her. "Okay. So uhm. Getting my facts right, I found out that it says, which is very ridiculous to me ; THE SCHOOLING SOLDIER, or something like THE SCHOLAR W
