Dream City

Chapter 31

Chrystal's POV

I saw a mountain. All of me rejoiced when I saw the mountain. At last! I found them. With all hapiness I immediately landed.

I immediately hid from the bushed and trees when I heard footsteps.

Guy: We have new prisoners.

Guy2: Really? Good thing. The other ones were close to death no one to torture.

When I heard those words I readied my power and faced them.

Me: Where are they?

Guy2: Easy!

He said while his hands after him.

Me: Where are they!

I said in a very scary. They didn't say a word so I blasted a fire ball over Guy2.

Me: Answer me!

I shouted and he became startled.

Guy: Ok! I'll tell you, just promise you'll keep me safe.

Me: Promise.

Guy: Ok, follow me.

He threw a rock into the the mountain.

Me: Are you joking?

He just gave me a glare and then a door opened up. So this is the secret door the riddle mentioned.

Guy: Follow me.

He looked at me and whispered something.

Guy: Stop doing that. You gonna catch attention.

I followed what he said.

Me: Start doing something crazy.. I'll kill you.

Guy: Shut up. I'm too young to die.

He said as he laughed. I don't know why but that laugh was music to my ears. I looked at his face.

To admit it. He was actually good-looking. Those eyes, nose, lips and tantilizing jaw line.

Guy: Finish examining me?

My expression changed when he said that. We continued walking with full silence until I asked something.

Me: What's your name?

The boy chuckled.

Guy: You're interested in me now?

Me: No! I'm not!

He laughed again and answered.

Guy: Dave.

Me: Ok. Dave... Where are we?

Dave: We are here.

I glanced and saw a door.

Me: Open it!

He opened it and we entered in a much darker room.

Me: The lights?

I don't know what he did and the lights turned on.

I closed and rubbed my eyes hoping that what I saw was a dream..

The scars..

The wounds..

They were all too painful to watch. My tears began to flow. I hugged Shan.

Me: Shan..

I cried. Her eyes opened up. She was trying her best to smile when she saw me.

Me: I'm gonna get you out of here.

I took off the handcuffs over her hands and assisted her to stand.

Me: Dave.. Please help.

Dave: It's a good thing I'm interested in you.

I handed Shan to Dave.

Me: Stop it!

I said as I took off the handcuffs of Mika.

Me: Mika!

Mika: Chrystal?

She said without opening her eyes.

Me: Come on.

I said when I turned back he was able to make a stone as a bed available for 5.

Me: Why only 5?

Fear trembled in thinking that someone died.

Dave: A guy was separated.

He said seriously. I don't know if I should be relieved with what I heard.

Me: Chrystal! Where is he?

I said as I took off her handcuffs.

Chrystal: I don't know.

Me: Now rest.. I'm gonna find him.

I said to her and she didn't disagree she just gave me a sad smile.

Me: Dave! Please release the boys and get them out of here.

Dave: Ok!

Me: Fail and I'll kill you.

I threatened him.

Dave: Don't worry.. I won't.

I smiled because of that. I was about to go when I forgot to ask where Xander was.

Me: Where is he?

Dave: Turn right then the last door.

Me: Thanks.

Then I smiled.

~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

Me: I found you!

I said as I saw him he was sitting on a chair tied up in pure steel.

Xander: Chrystal! Don't go near me!

He screamed.

Xander: Don't save me.. You'll die.

Tears flowed from his eyes. Nothing was more painful seeing him like this.

Me: No!!!

Then I broke the chains. I don't know how but I did. Alarms broke out. The door creaked knowing it was opened.

Voice: So, you are the chosen one.

Slowly turning my head. I saw him. Is he the one I'm going to defeat?

The most powerful esper in Dream city.

Master Kleid.
