Prologue:

Everything seemed to be still. The dusty roads are empty, not even an engine roared to life. The houses are empty. Even the wind carried the tragedy that hung over the village as a veil. Not even a single thing, to show the existence of life. Fear creeps through your spine when you look at this village.
At the distant end of the village, a cry of pain of is heard. One sight at the building from which the cry is heard, can paralyze even the most courageous person in the world.
There is a circle of hooded figures in the main hall of the building. The hooded figures are so tall that anyone can mistake them as giants. In the center of their vicious circle, a girl is kneeling and begging for her life. She knew it is her end and she is doomed for the worst fate. One of the hooded figures walks towards her with a malicious grin, he catches her hands fiercely and another one lungs at her throat. The girl screamed with terror when the person sucks her life out,her body lay limp on the floor.
The circle moves aside giving way to another hooded figure. He radiates power and fear. He steps towards the girl’s body and put his cupped hands at her throat, where the other person sucked her life out. A silver thread began to enter into the body from the cupped hands. When the silver thread vanished, the girl twitches. She is not the same girl, technically the body is same but the person is different. When the other girl looked innocent and fragile, this one is murderous. She stood on her feet and glanced at the circle.
"Come my Queen to our new Kingdom." the hooded figure that created this being said.
Other person's forming the circle kneels in front of them. Together they walk to the front of the circle hand in hand.
"This day marks our first step towards creating our new Kingdom." he says in a rough tone.
"No human will be spared; they will not be shown mercy since they are not worth it. Today it will only be this village and tomorrow it'll be another. The creation never stops, until the humans are completely eliminated from the face of earth."
"Long live King! Long live Queen!" the followers chanted.
The queen looks at her creator, the king and whispers something in his ears. The king grins wickedly.


1.New Start


I am being chased by a dark hooded figure, I ran into every possible direction trying to escape from him. He is closing on me with a rapid pace. In few moments, I'll be under his clutches. Even if I beg for my life, he may not spare .It seems that he is so interested to rip my soul apart. I thought it better to run until I find someone to help me.

I have been running since like years but there aren't a single people to help me. Where did they all go?

I ran without a glance at the hooded figure, I can feel him close to me. It's a dead end. I dropped on to my knees cursing my bad luck. It's time I say goodbye to my life. I prayed for the well of Granny and Grand pa. The hooded figure is laughing with full malice of its victory. I crouched hiding my head in laps. It spread its black cloak over me. I shrieked with pain.
I am shaking uncontrollably sweat all over my face. Gran ma's hands comforted me. She wipes away my tears soothing with her words. Her blue eyes filled with concern and her fragile her hands wrapped around me, as if to protect me from my dreams.
"I'll tell you girlie, stop seeing those horror movies." Grand pa said standing at the post of the bed.


Invasions on the earth? Gifted people trying to protect the mother earth? A school for training the gifted to fight against the invaders? Don’t you think I'm taking about a sci-fi movie? It's true. Til now, I thought the same way as you probably do now.

It all started with my stupid cousin. Granny arranged a party on my 15th birthday. My aunt and cousins were invited to the party.
Aunt Annie is very amicable, she looked beautiful that day, her brown eyes matching her Kurtis, her jet black hair touched her cheeks gently and the cheek powder she put is so vivid against her pale skin.
My cousins are weird they say things, that I don't understand and they boast for their knowledge. They even call me names.

I am sick of their bullying me. I screamed at them to stop but they went on and on. I was so mad at them that I wanted to throw them high into the air and kick their butt.

It all happened so sudden, I don't even remember the details of how it happened, all I remember now is my elder cousin falling on the ground as a failed rocket missile, far away from me. It was really wonderful sight to see him all covered in dust and the arrogant look, replaced by a bashful glance.

I was sent into my room by Aunt Annie. There was a lot of talking going on downstairs. After what seemed to be 3 to 4 hours Granny sent for me. Mean while I sat on the bed, to make head or tail of what happened.After a brief thought, all I decided is to apologize to my cousin.

"Rose, come here my darling. Meet Mr. James." Aunt Annie said.

"He is the caretaker of saviors’ camp and he will accompany you there." she added.

I didn't understand a word of what she said. I frowned but all I got as an answer is, you will be answered everything on the journey to the camp. I requested that I wanted to stay with Granny, for it's my birthday. All she said was that I have to leave now, before it's too late. Aunt Annie can be so hard sometimes. I packed a few things but when I went down.
Aunt was practically screaming, "Will that be all? If you’re going to stay there for the year."

"You said it's a camp, so I packed for a week." I stammered.

"Annie, stop yelling at her and go help her packing." Granny said.

Here I am now, with a complete stranger traveling to an unknown place. At first I couldn't make conversation with this person. He is really weird frantically looking in all directions, as if ready to pounce on any person near to me. It makes me really nervous. It's like I am back in one of my dreams.

"HI, I'm rose,"

"Hi," he says.

"Where are we heading to?"

"Saviors Academy."

"What kind of place is this?"

"A school”

"School."

"Why should I go without saying goodbye to my grandpa?" I thought to myself.

"It's for your own safety." he said as if reading my thoughts.

I frowned. He shrugged his shoulders.

I thought about what I did to my cousin and thought maybe that is the reason why they are kicking me out from my home, to this school for weirdo’s where I will be taught to be good. Am I really bad? I even thought of apologizing to him. May be I should apologize to him and then they may ask me to come back after all.

James burst into laughter. He is middle aged with thick beard, big black eyes, and ruffled hair and he is tanned. He is like a villain in films.

"I'm sorry, rose. That's not the reason why you are kicked out of your home." he said smiling.

"How did you do that? Do you read mind?" I asked appalled.

He nodded.

"DO you know how I did it to my cousin?" I asked.

"Nah, but you will know it when you meet Mr. Harry." he said.

"Who's Harry?" I asked.

"He is a very intelligent being; you'll find him amusing too. He is a member of the academy." he said.

Before I could ask him any more questions, he gestured to me to get off the bus. The cool air is practically biting my skin, I think it's midnight. I stared to look at my watch but there isn't much light. James sat beside me on the bench, clicked his fingers, a tiny spark produced. I am looking at him dumbfounded when he gestures me to look at the watch. It's half past one.

"How did you do that?"I asked dumbfound.

"A little trick." he said.

"Are you a magician?" I asked.

"Sort of," he said.

I nodded. It's freezing here and I don't think any transport will be available, at this odd hour in a deserted place.

"In five minutes, there is a bus for students of saviors." he said.

"Please don't do that." I said embarrassed that he is in constant vigilance over my thoughts.

"I'm sorry but I don't hear every thought, just the ones that concerns Me." he said.

I smiled. He is right a bus arrived, he handed my luggage to the conductor and gave him a note and waved me good bye.

"Wait, where are you going?" I asked.

"Don't worry, you are safe now." he said.

"Won't you come with me?" I asked.

"NO, I can't travel in a student bus." he said.

I hugged him. Though he is a weird, I kind of liked him. If at all papa is here maybe he would be like him I thought.

"Will I see you again?" I asked.

"At the pet house," he said.

That's when I noticed kitty purring in its home. Kitty is my pet. It's with me, like forever. In all my 14 years, I never saw kitty away from me a second. It follows me everywhere. While in school, it sits on the wall outside my classroom and looks at me with those weird blue eyes. People were always saying that it's really weird, that how it watches and when they ask me about its age. They say cats don't live that many years but all I could say against that fact is, kitty is an exception for that.

There are many people of my age so deep in sleep. Conductor showed me to a bunk on the other end of the bus. I thought of every minute detail that has happened past these two days. Sometime in between, I dozed off to sleep.

The same dream and the same hooded person but this time it's not Granny comforting
