*flashback, 15 December 1967*
Zeihra: my lord, i see you're upset, what's wrong?
Sebastien: Nothing zeihra, and still if i had something, it's none of your business
Zeihra: I'm sorry for my intrusiveness, i'll leave you alone, call me if you need anything sir
Sebastien: yeah sure
Zeihra then left the room as she fell on the floor, her legs were tired and her head started spinning more than usual, the maid took her on the bed and gave her a glass of water with sugar, to make her feel a little better
Maid: How are you feeling miss?
Zeihra: Good, thank you
Maid: What happened if i may ask?
Zeihra: I don't know, it happens everyday since i met him
Maid: It should be normal then, our lord knows what he's doing, and since you're his favourite, that means that he may have gave you new powers!
Zeihra: while i do appreciate the gift our lord is giving me, i'm kinda worried cause this happens everyday
Maid: ohh don't worry dear, it's normal, your body still needs to get used to it, i'm 80 and my body's perfectly fine! And it's been years since I got blessed by our greatful master
Zeihra: if you say so, i'll trust your words then
The Maid then carefully gave Zeihra a cup of hot tea as she grabbed it and drank it without any regrets, the maid stayed there, watching her slowly closing her eyes, to then grab her body and take it in a secret room
Maid: here she is my lord, I gave her the sleeping pill and she fell asleep faster than the others, it may be easier for us to work on her body
Sebastien: Good job katherine, you can have a piece of her body then, you starved for too long, it's time you finally eat
The maid happily giggled as she closed her eyes and transformed in a snake, not entirely, but her other half of the face became full of scales, and her left eye pupil has narrowed.
After revealing her real form, she slowly got closer to zeihra's body, took her arm and sucked her teeth on it to release poison on her veins.
Sebastien: now let's leave her alone, the poison would do it all
Katherine: her blood is soo sweet, can i have more lord?
Sebastien: no katherine, i need her alive.
Katherine: uff, another meal lost
end of the flashback
Akisa woke up sweating, in panic from that, nightmare? was that a nightmare?
Akisa: it felt so... real
Akisa checked on her arm to see if she had snake bites on it, everything was fine, she didn't see anything on it, apparently it really was a dream.
Still scared by the nightmare, since it was only 5 in the morning, akisa decided to go downstairs and head to the bathroom, so that she could've wash her face with cold water and calm her nerves down
Akisa: it was too real to be a dream, that was real I know i'm not crazy... well maybe I am since i'm talking to myself
Could it be a Vision? But why was zeihra in it? And why was she... NONO AKISA DON'T THINK ABOUT IT
after a while, she got out of the bathroom and went to her room again, still trembling and her face was covered by sweat, the fact that zeihra could've been already dead scared her a bit too much. While she was going upstairs, something made her trip off the stairs and crash her head on the floor, when she got up, she found herself in a room, which wasn't hers, but still had a familiar vibe
Akisa: why does this place feel so...familiar, i don't know where i am i've never been here, but i can tell this is not the first time i see those desk, they feel so warm and comfortable, if i didn't know them, they shouldn't be so comfy, they give me peace, and it really doesn't make sense
akisa kept walking around the room, in circle, she just kept going round and round the room without knowing what to do, she tried to wake herself up, thinking she was dreaming, but she wasn't, she was fully awake. But, even tho the room felt so good at her touch, she kept watching all the stuff placed on the desk she first saw, and none of the objects belonged to her in anyway, so why were they there?
Akisa: This are like, chemistry bottles? i don't even like chemistry
Sebastien: Oh yes you do, Octavia.
Akisa: You again? what do you even want from me? isn't the torture you gave to my sister enough?
She got so angry that she took the bottles infront of her and throw them against him, he immediately started to avoid them but one of them hit him on the head and suddenly, he wasn't there anymore
Akisa: what, where did he-wait come back you moron
Not even the time to finish the sentence that she found herself on her bed, as she woke up, her head felt heavy and her nose was bleeding (TW: BLOOD). She kept touching to try and stop the bleeding but as she looked down the sheets were already stained
Akisa: How the fuck did i lose that amount of blood? i didn't even hit my nose, and i- i wasn't on my bed(?) what's happening for the love of christ
She tried to get up from her bed, but even the slightest move would've make her head spin and her body weak, everything felt so strange around her, she wasn't able to understand if she was finally in the real world or stuck somewhere else again, it was even harder focusing in that condition
Zeihra: Kisa, kisa, can you hear me?
Akisa: Zeihra? no, it can't be, she was, i saw her, how...
Zeihra: Please kisa if you're here give me a sign
Akisa: I'M HERE, EVEN IF I DON'T KNOW WHERE THIS HERE IS
Zeihra: FOR THE LOVE OF THE FOURTH MOON KISA HONEY HOW ARE YOU
the shadow of Zeihra slowly came closer to akisa's body, hugged her tightly and caressed her face
Zeihra: you're nose is covered in blood, what happened, have you met him?
Akisa: Him? who are you refearring to exatcly?
Zeihra: I can't say his name, or he'll know i'm here, but i think you know who i'm talking about, listen, there's not much time left, he's gonna find you soon, train yourself, be ready, and don't let him touch you, understood?
Akisa: Ok, i'll do as you wish, but don't disappear again, please, ple-
Rowena: KISA, WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU? WHY ARE YOU BLEEDING THAT MUCH? HUGO, HUGO, CALL AN AMBULANCE
Khaliki: don't worry kiki, we won't let you in this state
A few minutes later
Akisa finally woke up, at the sight of her cousin crying, she tried to reach her out for an hug as she almost fell of the bed, it took her a while to see the drip attached to her arm and a something like 10 gazes to understand she was in an hospital
Khaliki: So, let me imagine, it was him again right?
Akisa: who are you talking about?
Khaliki: That one strange man who appeared last time in the kitchen, i've never seen him so i can't describe him to you
Akisa: Yeah, now i know who you and Zeihra talked about
Khaliki: ZEIHRA? WHAT DO YOU MEAN? YOU TALKED WITH ZEIHRA?
Akisa: yeah i, had various visions, i think? one didn't felt like a vision tho, in the last one she was there and i talked with her, it felt, great
The two got interrupted by the sound of some steps, unrecognisable steps, because they couldn't tell who was coming inside the room, khaliki immediately put herself in a defense pose and...
Leyla: WO, WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU? WAS IT NECESSARY TO HURT ME?
Akisa immediately started laughing as khaliki knelt down to apologize, Leyla did the same just to mock her and then the three girls started laughing together
Akisa: Anyway why are you here? who told you that i'm hospitalized?
Leyla: You wouldn't answer you phone so your cousin did, when she told me i immediately asked the school for a permission to leave earlier and i came here to see what happened to you, thanks to you i avoided maths oral test
Akisa: aww so kind of you
Leyla: You're welcome, so, what happened? why are you here?
Akisa: Should i tell her the truth or not?
So, should akisa tell leyla the truth or not? what will she do? surprise!
