Chapter 7

PYRRHA

It's so noisy.

What's going on outside?!

What is up with all these commotion?

"Hey, didn't you say you're going to join The Hunt?"I heard a deep voice somewhere.

I opened my eyes.

This seems to be the village where the Witch once lived before the incident.

It looks like these one of the fragments of mine that Jack was talking about. But I cannot control my actions though so I'm just gonna watch what going to happen.

I got up and exclaimed, "Of course, I'm going to join!"

"Then you should get ready now! The Hunt is about to start!"

I quickly got my bow and my arrows and fixed myself.

"Goodbye!" I exclaimed and ran out of the house.

There are lots of people everywhere.

It was even more noisy and crowded.

"Pyrrha!"

I heard someone called out. The voice was very familiar. I looked around to see where it is coming from.

Seems like I could control my movements now.

"Pyrrha! Pyrrha!! PYRRHA!!!"

I woke up and realized it was my mother. She was banging the door this early.

"PYRRHA! YOU'RE GONNA BE LATE FOR CLASS! WAKE UP ALREADY!" shouted my mother.

"I'm up! I'm up! I'm up!" I calmly said and scratched my head and walk to the door.

"Did you stay up late last night? You know that you'll have classes tomorrow! It's Monday, Pyrrha!"

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Calm down! I'll be on my way now!" I exclaimed.

I quickly fixed myself up and got my bag prepared. I ate my breakfast and drank my milk in one shot.

"I'll be going now!" I said after I got my shoes.

"Be careful, bye! Don't let this happen again!"

"Yes! Yeeeeees!" I went out and started running to my school as fast as I can.

I'm so screwed! I'm so screwed! I'm so screwed! Shoot!

But fortunately, I got in just right it time. I buried my face on my desk. I'm so tired and I could hardly breath.

Later I felt the chair beside me move. Seems like Nauri already here. She always comes early. She'll nag me about being almost late again.

"Stayed up late?" she said. I knew it.

"Meh. I was just so tired."

"What happened to you yesterday?"

"A lot." I sighed.

"Did you do the home works?"

"Yeah, since last Friday."

"Dayum."

"Hey Pyrrha..." she nudged me.

"What?"

"This guy's been starin' at you since you came."
