In what seemed to be a reception office, a woman and a man was talking. The woman was pretty, with an oval face and dark hair that fell in bangs over her face. She wore a white uniform typical of nurses. The man was bland looking. His hair was in the color of sand. He had a small nose, and wore a large white coat. "You're new here, huh?" The man asked, placing an elbow on the reception table. "Yes," the woman said, there was a hint of uncertainty in her tone. A mask. "Well, can I give you some advice?" The man asked with his voice lowered and his neck stretched. "Well, it is that whatever you do in this hospital, don't—" The man was unfortunately never able to say what he was going to say. Just beside them, a woman appeared out from nowhere. She was wearing dark clothing, a black loose dress that swooped over her in its large volume. On one of its oversized sleeves, was blood stain on the edge. She was holding a young woman on her arms."Who are you?" The man asked, plunging bac

Elena and Isaiah were now right in the middle of the Henge. Isaiah was sure the stone structures in front of him were fake but this did not stop him from admiring it. He placed his palm on one of the edifices. "This is magnificent" he said, looking upon it like it was some form of god."The real thing is in England. Wiltshire to be precise," Elena interrupted what he could only describe as the one time he was finding peace in the place. But he did not react to her and so she continued her commentary of the place. "It was built in successions, and it's construction started around 5000 B.C. So it's older than all the civilizations that have lived there."She observed Isaiah's seemingly connection to the place. "Of course the English would like to have us believe for all propaganda purposes that the Stone Henge is a part of teikt British heritage, whatever in our green and blue earth that means, but it belongs essentially to no one of them.""You've lived for more than three hundred yea

Isaiah's jaw was down, but he couldn't produce any words. Elena had said something so different from what he was thinking she would say, that his mouth moved but no sounds came of them, but mere mutterings."You seem like you have something to say?" Elena asked cheekily, checking her watch. The time was almost at twelve o'clock now. Close enough for all the historical figures in the room to begin moving. Isaiah got back his cool, took a deep breath and said, "in essence, what you mean is that hate is useless if you do not have the power to exercise it."Elena smiled. Not the same demon like smile that had dangled on her face before. This was somewhat different. It was warm and inviting. "You're sharp. You understood that quicker than I had thought." "I am not dumb" he said, looking away, placing his hands over his body in a self embrace, and trying to shield him from the cold that had started to become more obvious with every passing time. "I am just trying to guage how much of an

The white walls of the hospital collided perfectly with the bright lights that shone from the ceiling of the building. Asides the smell of disinfectant, this was the one other thing that welcomed Isaiah into the hospital. He hated hospitals and tried by all means to avoid the place. But here he was, staggering into the hallway like an excited toddler who had just been bribed into the house with a new toy.Please be fine, Jenn, please.... He hoped as he sped down the halls of the hospital, his heart beating against his rib cage in worry. Kate trailed behind him like a ghost lurking in the shadows, her head high and graceful like she was walking a runway. He wished she would move faster than that, but it seemed as though that was too much of a request to ask the brooding quiet and dark woman. "Where is she? Which room is she?" Isaiah asked impatiently as his eyes shot at all the ward doors within his gaze. "Which room?" He had finally come to a halt since Kate was far behind. His eager

Joshua Reeds was a calm man. This and his ability to stay composed no matter the situation always got him recognition everywhere he went. But what the public didn't know was that before all this, was a deeply troubled, and ill tempered teenager who had stabbed his father once. His mother, who was ridden with shock called 911 immediately. Joshua was arrested and his father was rushed to the hospital, where he stayed just three days.Upon his quick release from the hospital, he had rushed to the police station and had gotten Joshua released on bail. This had come as quite a shock to his wife because he was usually very strict when handling Joshua. Although, she had always been softer when it came to Joshua, but this one time, she had wanted him behind bars for stabbing her husband.Joshua's father had him admitted into an anger management program in another city that was three miles away from their hometown. And that was the beginning of the change Joshua never thought he needed."You'v

"Do you think I am playing with you, boy? You think this is a joke?" Joshua Reeds voice was bitter. His hand pulled on the collar of Isaiah's shirt, pushing him against the wall at the same time.But Isaiah was not looking at him. Isaiah was staring cautiously at the killer seated just there who was already about to make a move."Don't do anything" he said to her. "Please" his voice was begging, pleading. He knew what Kate could do. He had seen it nearly enough."Answer me now!" Joshua said in anger. "I shouldn't do anything?" Kate scoffed, watching Joshua like he was a prey. "Yes, don't do anything. I'll handle this myself." Isaiah said to her again. Mr. Joshua Reeds merely observed the woman beside him for a second, but he was too angry to think about her when who he really had to talk to was right in front of him. His eyes went back to Isaiah. "Answer my question. Are you the same Isaiah from the news? The one who got mixed up with Anthony Bradley?"Isaiah was silent for a whi

The next morning, Isaiah woke up with a great feeling of emptiness inside of him. It was not strange considering the emotional turmoil he had gone through the day before. He laid in bed for a while, his eyes shut as he forced himself to go back to sleep. But it seemed sleep had eluded him even if he barely slept through the night. He opened his eyes, but the weight from not sleeping all night weighed his eyelids down.Jackson brushed Luke's shoulder gently as he signalled at Isaiah. They looked at each other, perplexed. They could not help but wonder what was wrong with him because since he came back to the room last night he hadn't said a word to either of them. And it was now 9 in the morning and he was still in bed, which was unlike him. "Are you okay, bro?" Jackson walked towards his bed, a pair of socks in his hands. Isaiah stirred and faced the wall right opposite where Jackson stood."Hmmm" he hummed."What's the problem? You've been quiet since yesterday." Luke pitched in. Is

Isaiah and Nathan walked outside of the boy dorms, quietly strolling side by side, trying their best for their shoulders not to brush one another as the other boys breezed past them, going in and out of the hall way. Both of them knew that the other person had something more to say about what had been said inside of the room, but was just stalling, taking their time before they said it. They only stopped walking when they were outside, over looking the school's fields, the wind blowing across their faces. Up above, a bird darted across the sky with a straw of grass between its beaks. "So, tell me," Nathan began, his hands tucked into his trousers. He was wearing a white loose collared shirt over a black trouser. He had that serious look that he always had on him. The look that differentiated him from his brother in facial appearance. "What really happened in the museum? Because from what I could deduce from it, you did not tell the full story, did you?"Isaiah's eyes were dull, just

The room was dim, only illuminated by a faint blue light that hid more than it revealed. At the center of the room were three chairs placed opposite one another. Each of them was occupied by a person. One of these persons was an old man with a very frail looking body. His body was nothing more than a bag of bones. His eyes were shut to the world, but he seemed as if he did not need eyes to navigate the world. On his ears were black piercings.Another was a woman. She has black long hair that flowed down her back like a black river. Her eyes were sharp and beautiful. Her face bore the look of what beautiful evil would be like. She seemed to be made to scorn and be scorned for how beautiful she was, and she was as beautiful as well as she was scornful in look.The last person was a boy. Atleast he seemed very much to look like a boy. His head was shaven, and he wore nothing but a plain T-shirt, pink shorts and sandals. He had the look of a playground kid through and through. On his han

One. Two. Three times. Three times Elena sneezed while lying on her couch. Her body shook as if it were pinned by a thousand needles. She sneezed again, again, and again."What's wrong, my lady?" Kate asked. "Did you catch a cold?" She was standing just by the window, still and steady like a black statue on a large dark cloth."I don't think so," she said. "Maybe my name is being called somewhere," she joked. Elena has almost never been told a joke, Kate noted. If she was doing so this time, then there must be a reason for it.Kate let out a quiet laugh, even though she barely laughed usually, just to placate her master's joke. It only lasted over two to three seconds."You have the time to laugh, Kate," Elena began, eying her servant and rolling her eyes afterwards. "You have a case to settle with the court; don't tell me you have forgotten. They certainly wouldn't let you off the hook for killing someone in cold blood in the museum. Your actions have drawn considerable attention t
