Stellar Sovereignty

My feet hit the pavement with a thud sound when I recalled a shortcut that I got to know while talking to the cashier on my last visit to the supermarket.I increased my pace and took a quick right turn through the sketchy ally and then I took a left turn and reached the main street from there I started jogging straight ahead towards the supermarket without taking even a quick look behind me scared that it may slow me down.I finally reached my destination as I bent down while keeping my hands on my knees for some support. I panted like a dog. I felt like my heart would stop at any moment now.'I am really out of shape maybe I should join a gym. Now, me thinking about going to gym was funny.' After some minutes I finally stood upright and moved towards the entrance as my heart rate gradually calmed down.I entered through the opened glass doors with an exhausted look on my face. I looked around the supermarket and noticed that the place was crowded compared to the usual four or five sh

I sat still trying to comprehend his words. The only conclusion I was able to reach after he revealed that this guy was not stable and he had completely lost his mind.'He believed that he was not a human but the worse part was that he also believed that I wasn't human.'I prayed from the high above for my safety, not wanting to be killed by a crazy experiment of his if he decided to prove his theory.After some time I finally came out of my shock and the best question I could come up with was, "Oh really, So what do you think we are? Vampires or werewolves?"He started laughing hysterically while clapping his hands like a seal. He reacted like I said something crazy, the hypocrisy of the situation.He finally calmed down and took the water bottle out of the black polythene and chugged some water before passing it to me.Then he finally replied with a smirk on his face," Girly, I think you took twilight quite seriously but sorry to break your heart. Those things don't exist. Believe me

I was lost in my thoughts trying to comprehend everything that had been said when Samantha's delicate voice brought my attention back to her, " Pri..., I mean Celesta it's been a while since I have seen you. You have grown so much. I always thought that you kind of looked like your mother but now that you are aIl grown up I can proudly say that I was right. Haha, same hair, same eyes, same nose. Complete Replica."She said as she pointed at me like she was encircling my features and matching them from her memory. I couldn't help but follow her finger with my eyes. She noticed that and proceeded to boop me on the nose and than chucked lightly and moved back giving me some space. "Miss Samantha, How do you know my mother and what I looked like in my childhood?" I couldn't help and asked Samantha, I was curious to know about my past and about my parents. She gave me a sorrowful smile and said, "I am in no place to answer your questions about your parents and there is no time for us to d

I decided to change the topic and asked, " By the way why did you learn swordsmanship and not guns wouldn't it have been more functional? The amount of time it will take for you to take your sword out the opponent would have already shot you."" No, maybe it's true for humans but that's not how things work here, most people use swords, wand, bow and arrow and war hammer these types of weapons. They don't even know about guns and doubt that even if they used them they will barely affect anyone here." Jude said as he leaned back on his hands." And where is here and exactly where are we?", I asked with a sense of urgency." Oh yeah, you don't know about anything. So let me enlighten you, my lady." Jude said as sat up straight somewhat excitedly as he motioned to bow down. " You are on the planet Pitoniara, the homeland of pricers and right now we are in the silent forest." He said as he said gesturing around us."So you are saying we are on a different planet that explains why there is

I nodded and rested my head on the glass window as I looked outside, we passed through the clouds lit by the moonlight in the night sky. I continued to stare at the scenery and didn't notice when somewhere my eyelids grew heavy and fluttered shut. I felt a hand on my shoulder but I was too tired to react and succumbed myself to slumber.I was awoken by a musky fragrance as I laid my head on something warm and comfortable but firm as it moved slightly. I just leaned more toward the warmth and left a sigh. I stayed there for some time until my senses started kicking back and I realised my situation and sat back up with a sense of urgency. I looked beside me to find Jude sleeping as he laid back in the seat. For once he didn't look like an unnatural being but a really tired man and finally was getting some rest. His hair was all messed up and his shirt buttons were open, I couldn't help but blush and turn my head towards the window as the sun slightly peeked from behind the clouds and
