Strange things happen every day here. I never thought that Trinity Mora will die so soon after talking to me. They say that it is a natural death. Trinity has been sick for a few weeks and she kept coming back and forth from the clinic. I didn't let my apprentices go to the clinic if they are sick or something. Since I study a little of medicine, I am the one who checked their health status.
I was about packing a few things when Mrs. Hudson visited me in my office. She roamed her eyes around my office. I offer her a seat on my lounge. I asked her if I could serve her a drink. She declined a drink and insist on talking to me. I sit on the single leather-brown sofa across her.
"Your, office is cozy and tidy." She noticed.
"I practice being organized all the time. What brings you here, Mrs. Hudson?"
"I was told that you are with Miss Trinity Mora a while ago before her death."
"Yes, I am. She left my office immediately after her consultation. Then, I directly go to the faculty hall to consult Miss Margery about her apprentice. What is it that you wanted to know about Miss Mora?"
"Have she perhaps said something a little noticeable?" she confuses me on her question. But I immediately understand what she means or what she wanted to know. I look at her a little confused playing my role. She's afraid that their little secret leaks.
"Specifically, like what, Mrs. Hudson?" I asked and she shrugged.
"Maybe her dying words? I don't know."
"Well, I talk with her about her grades in my class and why her quizzes are failing."
"I am concerned that there are few kids, died this year. And yet, Catastrophe is nowhere to be found. Have you had any news about her?"
"Well, as I talk to Marcus, she's somewhere in Europe and it concerns her that his connection with her has been cut. It confuses me that there are lots of stories about Catastrophe's disappearance."
There's not much talk with Mrs. Hudson, but somehow, she looked pale, worried, and anxious. She left my office after we talk. I walk towards the window to look outside. I can see that there lots of Security guards that is called, Warriors of Ares. Ares was a psychopath, God of war. Yes, I just said that he's a psychopath. Because, his warriors are crazy, dangerous and mostly they kill innocents.
I drove my car with Clarence and Davin with me and their overnight backpacks. Davin looked better now, relaxing on my mellow music. Clarence, yawns, and yawns, sighing and keep telling me that my music is boring. That's for the fifth time.
"Are we there yet?" he asked in a very boring tune and slump his back again.
"Not yet," I said patiently. I already feel like old when I am with them.
After fifteen minutes, we arrived on the private road that leads to our house. Marissa is already waiting outside. She's so beautiful in her summer dress with a scarf around her so she won't get cold. I parked my car and immediately hopped out.
"Hurry up boys," I said. Because I was too excited to kiss and hug her, I almost run to her. She did too. She threw her arms around my neck, and I wrapped mine around her waist, kissing her very, very passionately showing how I missed her so much.
"Davin! Close your damn eyes. You don't want to witness our mentor kissing some chick." Clarence said loud. When I turn to them, he playfully, covered his hands-on Davin's eyes. Marissa giggled.
"Hi, boys."
"Miss Gregory." Clarence put down his hands and smiled on my girlfriend, in a nasty smile. What I mean is, he has a crazy thing about my girlfriend. He got crushed on her. I smack his head off from thinking that my Marissa is a great catch.
I smelled delicious barbeques and other alluring smells from the kitchen and patio. When I got into the kitchen, I am amused seeing Andrew and Mr. Sanders wearing pink aprons that have panda and bunny in the very middle of the apron.
The skillet is burning in red-orange while he's adding few spices and some-oils, alcohols. I stood there a few minutes watching Marcus do it.
"Aren't you going to change clothes?" Marissa asked removing my neck-tie.
"Later." I kissed her temple. "I just can't believe that he knows how to cook."
"Yeah, I can't believe that too. He's cooking all Adhiti's favorite. Nobody requested it, but it seemed like, he knows almost everything about Adhiti's favorite."
When Marcus noticed my presence, he glanced at me with smiles.
"I love a lot of seafood." He said.
"What comes into your mind, cooking all of those?"
"They are my favorites." His favorites? I can't just believe this. "So, I just wanted to share with all of you my specialties."
This is my time to talk to Davin in really private. I kiss Marissa again, telling her that I just need to talk to Davin. I invited him to my study room and ask him a few questions.
"Why does your face become horror when you saw Marcus?"
He nervously played on his hands.
"I saw him in my dream again. With the goddess… he's dying so as the goddess… their daughter is crying in pain that makes the whole world shakes… The world was disastrous."
My jaw drops when I realized what he's talking about. Marcus was with the Goddess, dying and the Goddess was dying too. That only means, that… The same mannerism, the same favorites. She has his feature mixed with a beautiful woman's feature, which is the Goddess. There's no doubt. Adhiti is Marcus's real daughter.
I can't help but chuckle in the irony of life. They both don't know that they have been with each other. It will be a lot painful for Adhiti if she knows about this. But, I hope that she'll know soon. I hope that she's safe with Nick. People wanted to kill her, though some of them are all aware that her death will bring the earth to isolation.
"What else? What else have you dreamed of?"
"You." I stop and slump on my swivel chair. "You are one of them."
"What do you mean one of them?"
"The people of spirit sitting on the tall thrones. Each throne has a symbol."
I am one of them? I know that I am from the other world but, one of them? I hate to say this but, I don't want to be one of them.
"Adhiti is in great danger." He added. "I had the foresight, Trinity's death a while ago."
"Go on," I told him. He held on the arm of the chair tight, his fingers scratching the wood. I gave him a glass of water and he did drink.
"I saw lots of death of the people in Mystical Academy. One death at a time. Then, it was dark again. I saw lots of apparatus… lots of apparatus that were used by doctors or scientists. There are different kinds of creatures that were mutated from different genes…" he shakily almost throw out. "I can't bare of seeing it. They are disgusting."
"Have a rest for now. Tomorrow, I seek for all of your dreams."
"Okay."
"It is relaxing on the patio, meditate your mind so you will be ready for tomorrow." He nods and stood.
I think for almost an hour on how to find things out. I have to solve these things. They will keep happening. I have to save Adhiti's parents from death, so the world wouldn't get isolated. How can I save both of them, if I don't have a specific time and day? I need to relax and need all of the details of Davin's dream. I can't believe that this is all happening. The door opens and when I look up, I saw Marissa smiling at me like she already knows what I felt. She walked towards me and I turn my swivel chair in front of her.
I let her sit on my lap, as I wrapped my arms around her. Gently, kissing the crook of her neck. When I suck her sensitive part on her neck, she moans in pleasure, her heart throbs and I can feel that it makes her turned on.
"I miss you." She murmured. I know she does. I bring my lips down to her chest and was about to pull down the strap of her dress when Andrew knocks on the door.
"Guys, you know that it is already dinner time. You should eat first, have a hot long bath and then proceed, am I right?" he didn't even open the door. Damn, why is he always so right?
"Later, I will make you happy." I murmur to her ear that as she giggled.
"I should get going," Andrew said it loud. I hear his footsteps walking away.
Marissa and I walk downstairs to the patio. I am mesmerized by the string of lights around the patio that Marcus is putting together with Andrew. He did manage to put it there. Davin and Clarence are helping on putting plates on together with forks, spoons, knives, and glass.
Just right in time, my parents just arrived for our dinner. Marissa's parents had arrived too with extra foods that Mrs. Gregory made. Andrew attack Maven that Maven immediately block. They started using combats at each other and Maven's martial art skills and combat skills had improved a lot.
