Lost

"YOU COULD HAVE DIED" Hoseok shouted , his eyes obviously swirling red.

"IT WASNT MY FAULT"

"I-I HAD NO CHOICE"

"You did" He continued.

"YOU HAD A CHOICE , you could have asked me or taehyung, in fact, ANYONE" Hoseok pointed to himself.

"WHY WOULD I RISK ANY OF YOU? I WOULD RATHER DIE THAN LIVE WITH REGRET IF THAT HAPPENS" Celeste flared back, eyes slowly turning green.

"Guys , quit it" Jin stood up and pushed hoseok away sightly by tapping his chest.

"Arguing wouldn't bring us anywhere, now that Calseloux knows that Astalet (celeste) unlocked her powers, we don't have much time to lose. They are turning every house down at this very moment"

"Fine, we can settle this later " Celeste slumped back on the couch.

"Suit yourself, what do you suggest then" Hoseok replied.

"We head north, directly to Delcanville, no more hiding, i cant risk anyone getting injured anymore" Taehyung glanced softly over at celeste who just avoided any eye contact by looking straight ahead.

"Prepare to leave by dusk"
———————-
Celeste looked at the road in front, heading North at dusk wasn't easy. I mean she hated being in the basement and living outside was way better.

But at least she slept enough back there, now? she couldn't even remember the last time she didnt have broken sleep. All these running and hiding, she was sick of it. Honestly who isn't.
(They have been hiding n running away for 3 weeks already, they move daily so)

She tried to kept her eyes focused on the path ahead, one hand holding the lighted lamp while the other gripped on the horse reins as it walked through the dark night.

Unconsciously, her eyes would land on hoseok, he was on her right side, as silent as the night he was.  She looked back and what happened yesterday replayed in her mind again.

Celeste quietly snuck out the safe house, teleporting to where the guards were. They were at the South-west, searching for her. 

She held her mirror (refer to prev few chapters if u forgot where the mirror was found) tightly where her mother was once seen. She didn't tell anyone, her mother had requested her to visit them.

Her mother told her that the captain of the guards (also Vlyin) would be able to break her free out of that mirror cage at a certain angle. Zero. And celeste just needed to do as she instructed.

Oblivious, celeste was easily persuaded and she told no one. Her mother told her to keep it a secret as she wanted to surprise the others. Including her brother. But lets just say...things weren't quite the way celeste expected.

"Ive reached the destination mom, what now?"

"Bring me nearer to him, if you place me north-east of him and on a rock, preferably 45 degrees of angle, i could break out of here" She spoke.

"You need to distract him, and let him use that one spell that will hit at the correct angles in order to free me"

Celeste nodded as she slid into the temporary rest place of the guards as silently as she could and towards Zero.
