Moments of silence and she left.What’s new? I bet she wouldn’t even come or attend that stupid meeting.I walked to my room and locked it. And----my tears shred on my best bestfriend, pillow!I poured my heart out until I stopped when my phone vibrated.“ Oh my gosh! I almost forgot. Tomorrow, will be great.”I typed and sent my response.

Future time.Third Person's POVAllisha woke up under an enormous tree. She stood up and looked around in so much confusion.“Where am I? What happened?“ She said she was terrified, trying so hard to calm herself down.“Ah, maybe I’m dreaming. Yeah! I’m just dreaming! OH MY GOSH! It feels so real,” she screamed after slapping her face.She tried to slap her face again, and again, but she just got hurt even more.“This cannot be happening. In dreams, there’s no pain,” she convinced herself. “Wait, am I dead?”She walked back and forth, trying to recall what had happened before all this. I tried so many things to wake up.“No! This cannot be happening!” She finally tired out. “I’m in so much pain. Come on, God, please; I’m too young to die.”She wailed helplessly while scanning her surroundings.Everything was unfamiliar, but the place looked so much better than her old neighborhood.She noticed a fountain and decided to go there.

Rojum cracked and gave in to his frustrations. He knew he’d lost digits, but he just couldn’t take it anymore.He picked up the shoe that hit him and threw it back to the girl, but unfortunately, he missed.Allisha couldn’t help but burst out in laughter. She found this boy funny for being so lame. The boy’s throw was powerless.“What’s that? Is that even a throw?” Allisha hardly spoke while laughing.Rojum pounced on Allisha so hard that he knocked both of them down on the ground.“What are you doing? Ha?” Rojum asked, really confused by what Allisha was doing.But Allisha didn’t bother answering; instead, she kept on laughing.Rojum was dumbfounded by Allisha’s behavior. But he couldn’t understand what it was about this girl that made him fine with wasting his time staring at her doing such an unfamiliar thing.He was drowning while he looked at and studied Allisha. Until he got startled by yet another unfamiliar sound coming from inside her.Allisha’s stomach rumbled.“What’s that
Third Person’s POVA time beyond time where the Purple Paragon was on the hunt for the other remaining human that looked like her.“Hey little human! I command you to never go anywhere. Do you understand?” Purple exclaimed.“But I’m hungry, Purple.” The little girl cried desperately.“Stay here. I’ll try to find a way to get you something to eat,” Purple said, turning her gaze away from the little girl.“But how? You can’t be seen,” the little girl said worriedly.“Did you forget I am a capable being, more capable than you humans could imagine.” Purple furrowed her forehead and rolled her eyes.“Ok. I trust you, Purple. Be back as soon as possible, ok?” The little girl sounded terrified, but she tried hard to look strong so that Purple wouldn't worry.“Whatever human.” Purple crossed her arms over her chest and stormed away.“Thank you, Purple.” The little girl giggled at Purple's behavior. "Silence!"Purple spread her wings and flew over a cliff where an overview of a small town cou
Purple then walked back and vanished back to the cliff. She returned happily, even whistling on her way to the hut."Who do you live here with?" a male voice echoed from a distance, which halted Purple from flying.She really hated walking. Flying was something for which she was so grateful to the Creator.She shapeshifted immediately and walked. She knew that the voice was coming from the hut where she and the little girl were living.She peeked through the bushes surrounding the area of the hut, which she made as protection. This was made as a camouflage so their existence could not be known to any being."Purple, you are here." The little girl cried upon seeing her.The little girl ran and hid behind her."Are you okay?" Purple asked, stepping out of the bushes."Yeah! But I am afraid," the little girl answered, trying to hold in her fear."I’m here now." Purple assured the little girl. "You, what do you need from us?" Purple then asked the man with authority. "Well, the little g
Purple woke up in a room vibrating with laughter and loud music.“Finally, she’s awake!” A woman said with colorful, unusual-looking face, as Purple thought.“Where am I?” Purple asked, still dizzy from the shock she got from Levine’s hit.“Whatever! Just wear this and go out. You don’t have to do anything but to serve them. Move now, quickly. Everyone was waiting for a long time," the woman commanded after throwing a shiny, thin clothing to Purple.“I am not wearing anything," Purple said this firmly and stormed out of the room, thrashing the cloth to the corner of the room.The woman was stunned in fright, disabling her to stop Purple. The woman was stupefied of the strange aura exuding out of Purple.As Purple stepped out of the room, there were drunkards everywhere, laughing and drinking. There were women wearing the same dress the woman inside asked her to wear.The women were barely wearing anything. Drunkards were touching them everywhere with faces that made Purple even more
