" Let's go to Layla. She will give you some pills to relax. You need to sleep if you want to function properly. You can't just let another panic attack set in. "Robert hated doctors. It was a reflection of their unbothered attitude towards his problems. Most dismissed his physical ailments as mental issues and referred to psychologists. They could be of no help either because he could not share his secrets with them. Layla was an exception. She was a vet. She believed in divination,believed in the paranormal and most importantly, was always attentive to Robert's needs. Oh, I forgot to mention, she was also Quill's ex-girlfriend. Quill missed her terribly though she had already moved on. He always found issues with Robert just to go see her and spend a few more minutes watching her talk. They went to her hospital with prior notification so they had to wait. " My goodness. Robert! It has been quite long...Hasn't it?Come inside. " She called them inside her chamber the moment she arr

Braze's phone vibrated in his pocket as he angrily strutted out of the amphitheater. He pulled it out, very annoyed, because it won't stop buzzing even after trying to switch it off for a few times with his finger inside the pocket. His eyebrows narrowed as he saw the name. It was the lady vet. " Hello... " He immediately put his air pods on, thrusting the phone back inside his pocket again. " Oh, Hi Braze! How are you doing? " She asked. " All good. Thank you... and you? " " Good good. All good. Umm... I called to share very important news. I think I have been able to draw some similarities between your conditions and an old patient... I was just checking his blood behavior when it struck me how similar it was to yours. I can't give you all the details over the phone. Can you please come down to my office? " She asked. " Now. Right now? " Braze looked at his watch. It was way past school time. The campus was deserted. It was well past afternoon. Layla returned to her files. She

" What's the emergency? Why are you calling in the middle of the night? This was my first night of peaceful sleep after so many weeks , boy... why did you have to ruin it? "Xen was still rubbing his eyes as he picked Kian's call. " Braze is missing ... Mira and I have been trying to reach him... His phone's switched off... I am standing in front of the house he is staying at... the house lady says he hasn't come back... I don't know where he could be..."Xen sat up, adjusting his neck. " Why are you so worked up? He is a grown ass male. He could be anywhere... it's not like he is missing for days... "" No. It's not like that... But it's urgent... We had a small fight... with the Watchers around, it's making me worried.... I have a bad feeling about this... and so does Mira... "" Okay... okay... "Xen cut him short, " I'm on my way. Gosh! Are you a married couple? Like seriously dude... had a fight... worried about him... Ewww! You make it sound so tacky.... "Xen hung up, leaving

Xen's head was hammering from the inside. It was that constant sound of metal clinking which was making him go deaf. " Don't be scared... I'm here... don't be scared... " He could hear the voice of his sister fading as the sound of the metal began louder and louder. He could feel their presence. He had no clue who they were but he knew they were not human. He was scared.And so was his sister. But sje shielded her with her body while Xen twitched and turned under her weight. " Calm down... little brother.... we cannot go out... " And then they heard their mother scream. Panic over took their little hearts and minds. " Noooo.... " His sister pleaded with her eyes but Xen could not restrain himself and let out a guttural war cry but all he wanted to do was vent out his fear. His sister hurriedly stood up and shoved her brother out of the dog-door. " Run and never come back.... " She warned as she mimicked his voice exactly and sprang out of her hiding stop in an attempt to deter t

Kiara's POV " Mira??? What is she doing here? " It had completely skipped my mind that she was in that neighbouring country as an exchange student. In running away from her, in keeping her safe, I had in reality, brought the Dark mages, right at her doorstep. Like an idiot I ran. There were a lot of them. And I was not the Kiara who was one of the best warriors that Chemora had. I was weak, I was vulnerable, barely a notch higher than those average humans. I ran harder, even though it was difficult with my feet bleeding and the thorny vegetation scraping my skin. I could feel her. She was just a few feet away from me. And I could feel them as well, swirling around the spot, scattered for the time being, for some reason. I ran and ran and then finally I bumped right into her. We both fell on either side of the bush. " Mamma? " I heard Mira's voice as I tried to get the dirt off my face. " Mamma... is that... is that really you? You came for me??? Mammaaaaaaaaa! " She fell righ
