♟Chapter 37♟
BELLA
"Are you asking us to believe you, mortal?" I heard the Gamma ask loudly.
When would people stop calling me a 'mortal'?
Clara opened her mouth to speak but I interrupted her.
"Stop calling me a mortal! Why won't you believe a human?" He looked down before snapping his head up to stare at me with his blue eyes.
"A human is a selfish creature who would just think about himself/herself." I opened my mouth to protest but he beat me to it. "You're just a slave to us!"
Hurt filled in me. They still treated humans as their slave? But now wasn't the time to think about it. I and my mate reincarnated for this matter and now was the right time to fulfil our purpose.
War for love and equality.
"Let's go." I weakly whispered. "And you, a poop creature would come along if you want to get out of here," I said to the Gamma.
"Poop? What does that mean?" He asked.
Oh yeah, they still don't know about the new curse words.
"Your excretion." With that said, I hopped inside the dimly lit whole.
"Bella!" I heard Clara yell.
"Follow me!" I shouted as the path got very slippery. "Ahhh!" I screamed as I felt something hit my leg.
Soil and other particles entered my nose and eyes. I made an effort to breathe properly but I couldn't. I pathetically attempted to get oxygen through my nose but the only things that entered were mud particles.
I heard another shrill outcry echoing behind me. But I didn't bother about it and concentrated on my breathing. Due to almost lack of oxygen, my ears and my face began to ache. My head was heavy. I could almost feel the weight of it on me.
I closed my eyes shut when I saw a huge stone in front of me.
Oh God! I totally forgot about the blockage! I exclaimed in my mind. What should I do? What should I do?
"Ahh!" I screamed continuously waiting for the impact but I felt myself land softly on a hard surface.
I coughed loudly and squeezed my eyes to open them. I turned to a side and groaned in pain but gradually lifted myself from the hard surface. I greedily breathed in as much as the oxygen I could before sitting properly.
My eyes burnt as I slowly opened them. I sighed as I rubbed my hands together before putting them on my face and wiping it off.
When I fluttered open my orifices, my vision got blurry. I blinked a few times to get a clear vision. I wasn't surprised at where I landed.
I was in a forest with tall trees around me. I glanced at my left and noticed that I fell from a cave. But I remembered seeing a stone blockage there...but then I reminded that the realm I was in is filled with magical kinds of stuff.
I got up and made an effort to move forward only to fall again. I stared at my knees and saw there were scratches on them.
"Ahhh!" I heard screams after screams from the cave. I assumed they were coming too.
I felt really bad when Onyx's gamma uttered those words. It honestly stung me. I recollected myself being a slave but then I was a slave for my own mate which didn't really affect me much except when Vlaxin would appear out of nowhere inside Leonardo.
My Xanthos.
Each and every minute I could think was about him. I--
"Oof, it was really suffering to reach here!" I turned my head and gazed at the person who said those words.
Crouching there was a boy who seemed to be nineteen or twenty. His black hair shone under the moonlight and his green eyes were of the same colour as the forest around me. Twigs and dirt covered his entire tan skin and hoodie.
Hold on, hoodie?
"Onyx? Is that you?"
"No, I'm Micheal Jackson." He coughed.
"How do you know him?" I asked and tried getting up only to fall on the ground again.
"He is the king of pop in the upper world, how wouldn't I know him?"
Another scream was heard before a girl in red dress flew out of the cage.
"Clara? Are you fine?" Onyx stood up from the ground and limped towards Clara who almost seemed as though she fainted.
"I-I'm--" she wheezed.
Onyx wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close. He helped her clean herself off of mud and whispered soothing words in her ears which I wasn't able to here.
Were they mates?
I didn't want to disturb them so, I got up and limped towards the cage.
Another loud, more shrilled scream was heard.
Came out an almost naked man.
"Oh, my goddess!" Onyx shouted, at the same time I yelled, "oh my God!"
I covered my eyes with my hands and turned around.
"I told you all to not listen to this flity mortal!"
"Could you shut your mouth and wear my hoodie!"
"Oh, as you wish my Alpha."
"Don't use that tone on me."
"Oh, I would, Alpha--"
"Could you two stop fighting like a married couple?" I heard Clara exclaim in frustration.
"Has he dressed appropriately?" I asked before removing my hands from my eyes.
"Yeah, he is now," Clara answered. I turned around and saw Clara glaring at Onyx. "Why am I on your lap?"
"You weren't feeling well--"
"So? Get off of me."
"Well, you should get--"
"Now, you two please stop quarrelling like this!" I exclaimed. "We need either get back to your clans or go directly to the palace." They all glanced at each other.
"Do you know the way to the palace? None of our clan members is in their kingdom for past ten or fifteen years."
I thought for a while. Did I remember the route to the palace? I don't think so. But I may remember if one clan name is known to me.
"Hey, werewolves? Could you two smell and tell me where are we now? Like...umm, can you sense any nearby clans?"
They breathed in deeply and closed their eyes. I patiently waited for them to answer me.
"Bella? Do you think whatever you're planning would work?" Clara inquired.
"I just...hope so. But the main part would be played by my mate who I guess was still in the upper world." I sighed.
"You've found your mate?!" She yelled.
"Shh, let them focus on their work." I pointed at the two werewolves. "And for your question, yeah I have a mate," I said as I scratched my head as I felt it itching.
I saw Onyx opening his eyes. "La Unité."
Unity.
I tried to recognize it.
Then it clicked me.
The clan which helps the supernatural community.
"We are at the back forest of the fort," I whispered.
"How do you know so many things about us?" Gamma scowled.
"Stop scowling." I ignored his question. "I never got your name."
"I don't believe you enough to give you my name."
"Then fine, don't come along with us."
I pulled Clara's hand and started moving randomly in anger.
"Hey, Bella! Don't get angry about this!" Onyx shouted and came alongside with me.
"That guy is a poop! I'm telling you!"
"I'm not an excreta!" Gamma yelled. Clara giggled beside me.
"Me no going to listen, you poop," I yelled and jogged to God knows where.
Cool air caressed my cheeks but then almost fell when my knees started to hurt. All of a sudden I bumped into something and lost my footing. However, someone wrapped their arms around me and straightened me up. I started forward and noticed there was nothing in front of me.
I lifted my hand and slowly kept it in front of me to check if there is anything. As soon as I properly placed my hand, I felt a hard surface underneath my touch.
Startled, I moved back and whispered, "there's an invisible wall."
I saw a blue ball-like structure gradually coming in my vision. We watched silently and Onyx stood in front of me and others in a fighting stance.
When the ball completely disappeared, I stared at the person I least expected.
