Healed | Haechan

thirty two

Haechan and Zhi Ping arrived infront a gate flashed with red lights. Haechan fell down a thud and got down his knees feeling weak. Zhi Ping worriedly approached him, "Chan, you okay ?" She helped him got up and supported him with all her might. Haechan shifted a blaze of fire from his hand and the gate opened.

Haechan guided Zhi Ping inside a building and she saw lined up dragon sculptures and swords that seem to be brought down by ancestors. They stopped on a big hallway and he finally got to speak up since they arrived. "Wait here, she'll come." Zhi Ping nodded while stomping her feet, feeling the nervousness spread across her face.

Haechan saw her worried and uncontrollable expression then pinched her cheeks, "Hey, you look ugly when you're nervous." Zhi Ping smacked his hand and it made Haechan fell down deliberately and laughed. The lights flickered bright red and a very elegant and tall woman sat on the throne in front of them. "A guess, yes?"

They walked closer and Haechan stepped forward, "Now, am I done?" Zhi Ping who looks perplexed looked at him asking for an explanation, but nothing came out from his mouth. She got impatient and started to keep up the conversation. "I'm sorry but who are you and why are you here?"

The one sitting on the throne, or you can call the queen of fire stood up and evil laughed. "I'm actually the queen of fire my dear and I need your help to take care of this throne. "Wait what ? I'm not." Her eyes blazed with anger and when she was just about to attack Zhi Ping with her powers, Haechan blocked. "Chill mrs whatever."

The queen sat back, "Call me Melissa." She pointed to Haechan and he can only look down. "Zhi Ping." She looked up to him and showed a confused face. "i'm sorry i made a promise with her, you'll continue her throne." Zhi Ping backed up from him and asked for further explanation. He explained from when the accident occurred until he was brought back to life. "What ?" 

Zhi Ping tried so hard to stay strong but then can't help herself. "Chan, you betrayed me? I can't believe you." She ran to go out but the door was closed, "I'm sorry Melissa, I'm going back." Melissa laughed and approached her. "Ooh, pretty little girl hm ? I'll give you my powers, inherit it and you can go wherever you want." 

Zhi Ping was dragged out to a room so similar to the room she had back at her home. She sat on the bed and started to stare out the window with an empty mind. How can she be stuck in a mess, a world of imagination more precisely. She decided to wash up and get herself some sleep rather than just staring at something useless. 

After washing up and getting ready, she got down and went out. She walked around until she arrived at a door, a shining one but a blue one. She peeked inside and saw a sword shimmering the room. It's red and it is indeed pretty and magical. She was about to open the door when Haechan interrupted her. "Zhi Ping. Need to talk."

They then decided to walk around passing the lake and sat at a bench next to the library. "What are you gonna talk about ? Happy being a traitor ?" Haechan sighed and held her hand which she refused. "If I don't do the promise, I might have never be here meeting you again." Zhi Ping looked at him and then sighed too. "But I thought there must be a way other than that. I'm scared Chan."

Haechan embraced her and whispered, "You'll be fine."

Zhi Ping and Haechan was suddenly teleported to another foreign room and not long after, Melissa arrived. "Ready ?" Zhi Ping looked at Haechan then back at her. "My dear, nothing to be afraid about, Just stings a little." She laughed then asked her to sit at the floating bed. "I'll be back."

"Zhi Ping, it's fine. I promise." With that he left her and Melissa came back. Zhi Ping laid down and Melissa gained together her power and shifted it right to her whole body. It caused the room to shake and also her body. She tried but nothing worked. "What ?" Melissa felt perplexed but then continued to try again. "I can't reach it." The power she used bounced back to her and it made her fell.

Melissa went out and told Haechan about it and he was beyond worried. "Will she be okay ?" Melissa ran without telling him anymore further.  He wanted to catch her, but Zhi Ping's condition is more important. He went inside the room and hurriedly check on her. "Zhi Ping, hey wake up." But she didn't even move an inch. A soul outside passing by looked at them both then said, "Let her rest."

With that, now her condition is the same as what happened to him a few months back.
