“And what if I say no?” Zachary asked with a daring look on his face.
“Then I’ll have no choice than to use for-ce” Angie replied with a sm-irk.
se-nsing that they wanted to fight Gianna immediately stood at their middle.
“I don’t think there’s any nee-d for you guys to start fighting, Angie just leave him” she said.
“No way” Angie shook his head.
“I’m serious leave him, he’s going to give me back the book” she added, looking at Zachary.
“You think I’ll give it back?” Zachary asked.
“I know you will” she replied.
“Keep dreaming then” he scoffed and walked p@$$ed her, Harmony immediately looked down when he got to her.
He paused and looked at her for a short while before finally leaving completely.
“You’re seriously going to let him leave like that, why didn’t you just let me hit him?” Angie asked angrily.
“Because fighting is against the school rules and I don’t want you to get into trouble” she pouted.
Angie smiled wi-dely when she said that.
“So you care about me?” He asked.
Gianna nodded slowly.
“Aren’t I suppose to care since you’re my friend now?” She muttered.
“Yes you should care about me because I’m your bestie and I should also care about you” he agreed with a smile.
She smiled too and arranged her hair backwards.
“So what do we do about your book, want me to go take it for you?” He asked and she shook her head.
“From the way I see things, Zachary looks like a strong headed guy if you wanna go he might pick a fight with you” she replied.
“So what?, I can also fight look at my muscles it’s bigger than his” he showed her his muscles.
Gianna narrowed her brows as she stared at him, the image of Zachary shirtless b©dyappeared in her mind and she smiled.
“Ahhhhhh, you’re smiling…” He wiggled his brows and she chuckled again.
“I’m smiling because I think Zachary’s b©dyis more bigger than yours and he has a pretty tattoo too” she replied.
Angie frowned dee-ply.
“Pretty tattoo??” he repeated and made to take off his shirt.
“No no” Gianna smiled and held his shoulders ti-ght to prevent him from doing so.
“My b©dyis so attrac-tive if you see it I’m sure you’re gonna faint it’s just that I don’t have a tattoo but I promise you that I’ll get one” he scoffed.
“What do you wanna draw or write on your bo-dy?” She asked and he smiled.
“I’ll write your name on my left arm” he replied and she shook her head and let out a short laugh.
“So let’s get to cl@$$, it’s orally right?” He said holding her hands but she immediately withdrew.
“Why?” He asked.
“Because people might think that we are a thing” she replied and he laughed.
Gianna was about to reply but paused when she remembered Harmony.
She immediately turned to her left but couldn’t find her, to her right and she till couldn’t find her.
“Looking for someone?” Angie asked.
“Hmm that girl that I came here with” she replied.
“She must have left” he said and she sighed.
“She was a new friend I just made this morning, we were coming to cl@$$ together but I guess she left because she felt left out” Gianna replied.
“It must be because of me then, sorry” he muttered and she smiled.
“It’s okay, now that you’re here let’s go but first let’s go to the cafeteria I’m super hungry” she hu-gged his arms and pulled him towards the direction of the cafeteria.
*****
AFTER CL@$$
“So stressful” Gianna stretched her b©dythe moment she stepped out of the cl@$$room.
Today’s cl@$$ was super boring to her, she sat alone because Nevaeh wasn’t well. Speaking of Nevaeh, she better go check up on her.
She went to her locker room to keep her books before going back to her hostel room.
When she got there, she met Nevaeh still slee-ping, she walked up to her and tou-ched her forehead.
She was still burning up.
“I hope she gets better” she muttered and crossed her arms, thinking of why she got sick at the first place.
She sighed and shook her head then looked at Nevaeh one more time before stepping out of the room.
“What should I do next?” She asked herself.
Her eyes brightened when she remembered that her book was still with Zachary.
“I better go look for him” she muttered and ran out of the girls hostel.
❀❀❀❀❀❀
BOYS HOSTEL, ROOM 150**
No one is in the room apa-rt from Zachary who kept going throu-ghGianna’s book with a confused look on his face.
He continued fl-ipping pages to pages as he check each chapters out.
Just what kind of novel is this?, Why does this book looks so damn familiar??, Was it because it has Chuyun, Daiyu and the Ouze palace inside??
But wait!!, Who is Xia Meilin because that was what he has been seeing on the book.
As he thought of that question, his heart began pounding really fast, his head began spinning, he began sweating and he began seeing double.
Xia Meilin…. Why does that name sounds familiar??
He held his head ti-ght and the book fell from his hand, slowly, he began seeing some flashback of a woman, fighting with a sword and baby cries filled the room but he just can’t seem to get what was happening in his head.
While facing this truma, his door kicked open and Gianna stepped in with a smile.
“Ahha!!” She exclaimed and pointed at him.
“Finally found you and hey, why did you drop my book on the floor?” She asked, rushing to pick the book.
She picked it up and dusted it then looked at him with a pout, he does not look okay.
“Hey” she called slowly but he just covered his face with his both hands.
“Are you okay?” She slowly again.
“Get out” he reply in a hoarse voice.
“Huh?, You don’t look okay” she added and slowly dropped her book on the table.
She moved closer to him and made to tou-chhis face but he cought her hands ti-ght.
“I told you to leave didn’t I??” He said angrily, his eyes were still closed.
“But you…”
She suddenly g@sped with wi-dened eyes when she flew up from the ground and landed on the be-d.
That’s right, Zachary had just lifted her up like she was nothing and threw her ontop of his be-d, then havored her with her both hands above her head.
“I told you to leave didn’t I??” He repeated, staring directly into her eyes this time.
His eyes… They were pure red, what was happening??
“Your… eyes” she stuttered.
“What happened to them?” He asked.
“They are red” she replied.
“Are you a scared?” He asked again and she shook her head.
She stared de-ep into them, she stared like it’s the most beautiful thing she had ever seen.
“They are beautiful” she finally spoke.
What followed next was silence she kept staring while Zachary began leaning closer to her face.
Her eyes wi-dened as she watched him, his eyes were on her l-ips, it looks as if he wanted to crash his l-ips against hers, her heart was beating really fast but she couldn’t stop him.
She shut her eyes ti-ght as he finally got closer to her and just as she thought his l-ips were about to tou-chher, he suddenly p@$$ed out right beside the crook of her ne-ck.
Gianna’s eyes flew open and she immediately came back to her se-nses.
She pushed him off and immediately jumped off the be-d.
“Just what the heck is your problem!!” She yelled and didn’t even wait for him to reply before rushing out of the room.
When she was finally out, she slapped her heated cheeks immediately.
Just what the hell was that, what was she even thinking when she closed her eyes, was she expecting him to ki$$ her or something??
What if he hadn’t p@$$ed out, would she have allowed him to ki$$ her??
“No no no Gianna, don’t start thinking of things like this, I nee-d to get out of here” she said to herself then took some de-ep breaths before rushing out of the school.

THE FORBIDDEN ZONE**
Gianna smiled the moment she got there. This place still remains her peaceful sp-ot.
She smiled as she looked at everywhere, the flowers had grown to be more beautiful than ever.
She inhaled the fresh saint of the rose petals and as expected, it just made her to forget about everything she was thinking.
“Time to concentrate on this book, I bet no one will be here to disturb me” she smiled and sat down on the fresh gr@$$ then opened the novel and began reading from where she stopped.
~
Years later in the Ouze palace. Things had been really sour after Xia Meilin died, the king has been meditating, the queen was still in a comma
The palace is now being ruled by Chuyun’s order and the palace had been a mess, people kept dying anyhow due to the sudden short storage of food and water
And that was how things kept going, years kept p@$$ing but nothing good was happening, people kept dying, violence was the key to all the problems
The palace really got damaged with care of Chuyun until when it was finally time to face reality..
In the crown Princess chamber, Chuyun could be seen sitting on her golden throne, her eyes closed as she listened to the soft tone of the music coming from the palace musicans
A paper suddenly flew into the palace and went straight to her but before it could tou-chher, she immediately cought it.
She opened it and her eyes wi-dened at what it says, it says: Jade heavens had decided that the formal crown princess Xia Meilin will be getting her recan-alization, her spirit will enter a pure hearted and naive girl who lives on earth”
Chuyun immediately stood up in anger and the music stopped.
“Everyone leave!!” She ordered.
The musicians bowed together and left.
Chuyun faced her private maid and she bowed.
“Where is Daiyu?” Chuyun asked.
“Her room my lady” the maid replied.
“Go and call her and tell her to summon black lake now” she ordered.
The maid bowed and left.
FEW MINUTES LATER**
Daiyu slowly opened her eyes and a dark vortex appeared into the crown princess palace hall, it opened and black lake came out.
“Why have the new crown princess summoned me?” She asked.
Chuyun stood up and moved closer to her then showed her the paper.
“Explain this!” She ordered.
Black lake collected the paper and looked at it, she looked at Chuyun then Daiyu and laughed loudly.
“This is the written fate from the Jade heavens, it says the spirit of the formal crown princess has been roaming about none stop, it is very angry and it’s looking for a way to come back, any way” Black lake replied.
“How can we stop her?” Daiyu asked.
“By looking for the chose-none and killing her” Black lake replied.
“I heard she is on earth, how are we supposed to find her” Chuyun fumed.
Black lake laughed again and closed her eyes.
“Can you help us locate her?” Chuyun asked.
“I can but it’ll be so ha-rd, I won’t know the exact girl”.
“Then just tell us where she is and we’ll take care of it” Daiyu said.
Black Lake sat on the floor and closed her eyes, she began humming some strange words.
Chuyun and Daiyu looked at themselves and looked at her again when she opened her eyes.
“The girl is a college student on earth, she attends…
That page suddenly to-re out of the book and flew up, Gianna shook her head immediately and stood up too.
What just happened, no way, not when she was already enjoying the book!
“Come back” she jumped but the paper only flew higher.
“Come back” she jumped even more but the paper began flying away.
She angrily chased after it but it managed to squee-ze itself inside the forbidden gate and entered.
“No!!” She yelled and began hitting on the gate.
She turned back to the original novel but the moment she carried it, it burnt her hand and she immediately dropped it back down.
She wanted to tou-chit again but the novel began burning then the ashes flew above the air and disappeared.
“What is happening?” She asked herself and turned back to the forbidden gate.
❀❀❀❀❀❀
“Nevaeh watch out!!” Gianna yelled and rushed to hu-g Nevaeh immediately.
The moment she did that, the scary dragon di-pped his head into Gianna’s back, his mouth came out from her che-st at the front and her eyes turned de-ep red.
“Anna!!” Nevaeh yelled but a tear drop fell off Gianna’s eyes, her mouth opened and moved, whispering something silent to her.
It looks like she was telling her to run and get out of here.
“Anna” Nevaeh called again and the dragon released Gianna and Gianna began falling slowly inside a hu-ge river.
END OF DREAM
“Anna!!” Nevaeh screamed and her eyes flung wi-de open immediately.
Her heart began beating fas-ter, that was a nightmare but it felt real.
“Anna” she called, slowly standing up but no reply.
“Anna” she called again.
Looking at the weather now it was already dark.
“Anna” she called worriedly and rushed to her phone to check the time.
It was already nine o clock in the evening.
She immediately wore her hu-ge fl-ip-flops and rushed out.
On a norms, she doesn’t believe in nightmares not this time with all what she saw in her dream, she was really scared.
She tried Gianna’s line but it wasn’t going, it kept saying network busy.
She finally got out of the girls hostel only to meet a heavy storm outside.
That’s it, how would she leave now.
“Anna, please be okay” she said fearfully then gulped her whole saliva down before running un-der the rain.
❀❀❀❀❀❀
BACK TO THE FORBIDDEN ZONE**
Gianna kept looking for how she’ll get it not minding the fact that everywhere was already dark and raining.
Her phone was outside but the rain had already drenched it.
“What do I do, how do I enter” she muttered and tou-ched her head then immediately she did that she felt her hairpin.
Her eyes wi-dened and she immediately took it off, she intersected it on one padlock hold and it opened.
She smiled and did it for the another, then another and another till they were no more left.
“Finally, so my hairpin can open this along, why didn’t I think of this” she smiled to herself and made to enter but a faint voice made her stop.
“Don’t go in” ….
She paused and turned back with a confused look only to find Nevaeh running towards her.
She got to her and began pa-nting heavily.
“Anna are you crazy??, How many times will I tell you to stop coming here!!” Nevaeh yelled angrily.
The rain had already drenched her hair and her bo-dy.
“What are you doing un-der the rain?, Don’t you know that you’re not well” Gianna asked worriedly.
“Who cares about my health, please Anna come with me and let’s go home now” Nevaeh pleaded.
“But I just want to look for a paper,you can wait for me outside I promise not to take time” Gianna pouted.
“What stupid paper, come with me and let’s leave now” Nevaeh pleaded.
“But Nevaeh…
“Please” Nevaeh said in tears.
Gianna sighed and nodded.
“Fine” she muttered.
Nevaeh smiled wi-dely and stretched her hands for Gianna to accept and just as she was about too.
The paper came out of the building and flew at her front.
Gianna’s eyes brightened.
“The paper” she said happily then jumped to catch it but it flew back inside the building and without thinking twice Gianna ran after it.
“Anna!!” Nevaeh yelled.
