Olivia is a saleswoman in a very peculiar Mall. That mall's owner despised a book so much that she made a rule that anyone even the customer can not bring that book inside the mall and those who will are going to be thrown out. Olivia does her job spectacularly as her smile dazzles everyone walking by her aisle. Her words can persuade anyone who is having doubts to immediately be assured and buy her designated item.
"*sigh* If only I could be as good as you with words this job would be much easier," Sky said while staring at her. I giggled in response to Sky's statement. Feeling a tug at the hem of my skirt I looked down to see a cute girl holding a book. Smiling softly I crouched to her level to ask. My action made the cute girl smile more brightly. "Where's your mommy?" I asked softly at the kid. My friend Sky walked away from me as a customer is questioning the products so it's just me and this kid in this aisle of dresses are left. She shook her head and smiled bigger and weirdly. Immediately I felt red flags and oh how right I am. She flipped the book that she was holding to show me its cover. And Oh to my surprise it's the forbidden book!. I immediately shivered out of fear. I do not know why that book's secret but I know what will happen to people who have those.
I grabbed her hand as I sprinted to the stairs of the mall. No one uses the stairs in this mall because it is run down and the boss never invested in cleaning the place. "Where'd you get that?" I asked solemnly. The smiling child looked more mature but didn't answer me. She just looked at me with teasing eyes while smirking. Sighing I immediately went downstairs still holding the child to hide the book. We found ourselves in the garage after walking down that horrid stairs. I looked at the spacious garage and started walking. The child let me lead her everywhere as she felt colder and colder. In the garage, there are special garages for V.I.P people and that looks like a shop in the garage. Looking at those rooms I snuck into one of the special garages and hid in front of the car. Crouching I looked at the girl that I'm dragging all this time just to see her gone...
A chill ran through my spine as I had goosebumps all over me. The book is still in my hands so I quickly composed myself. Glancing around the fancy car and king-like chair I decided to hide the book in a box full of fancy books. (They probably bought it and is waiting to be brought home) I pulled those books out and put the forbidden book on the bottom and all the other books on top of that book. Getting up from the crouching position I found the entrance closed. Widening my eyes I almost fainted. Slouching from tiredness, I walked slowly to the king couch to rest. I slept soundly as this day has been stressful for me.
Waking up the first thing I saw was a man's face. Startled I immediately sat up with great difficulty. I sat up straight as I looked at the round face of a man. "I am very sorry sir I have been locked here and I do not know what happened I was just" flustered I tried explaining my situation. The man frowned as he looked at my manager that is smiling. I can see that she is pissed. I'm going to lose my job now. She grabbed my arm and pulled me out of the garage. She looked at me and took a deep breath as her hand on my arm tighten. When we stopped she held my shoulder and looked at me with angry eyes. "You messed up now blondie and you are fired," she said gritting her teeth. My shoulders drooped low as she called my friend for my stuff. "Get lost," she said walking to the VIP garage again.
Olivia walked out of the mall in her red dress and black high heels. Walking to my car I opened the door as I slumped into my seat. Such an unlucky day. 'If that girl had not been there I wouldn't get fired' I said gripping the steering wheel. While driving back home my head became muffled with anger as I thought of what would happen If I was not nice to that girl, If I did not help her If I.....
My car fell down the cliff. I'm not unconscious. I cannot feel anything. I'm numb and I can't move. My face is stuck with my last expression, frowning. I darted my eyes around as three people came near me. "Is this her?" An old brisk voice sounded looking at me like a piece of meat. "Yup," a childish voice sounded. IT'S THAT GIRL! I HATE HER DESPISE HER EVEN AGHGGHGHGHGHSDGHAFGDSADGHSAFG. "Well, it looks like she's not dead....yet," a young manly voice said.
Picking me up like a sack of potatoes he walked straight to his car before putting me down on their back seat. His butt is terribly hard that my nose is red from bumping to it from time to time. The child sat next to me as she ate some lollipops. "Let's find someplace to rest first then get her treated," The old man said sitting in the driver's seat. Excuse me? did they literally ignore all of my scars, blood loss, and broken bones?!..... AGHGGHGHGHAGHGHAGH!. Screaming internally they talked for a while before drifting to sleep. My rag doll-like body fall on very weird angles as we made turns. The young girl seems to be called Riza the young teenage guy is Christian and the old man is called Ben according to their conversation.
Finally arriving at a resort, Christian tossed me again at his shoulder. I cannot see anything but his butt, I cannot move, I cannot turn my head or anything. As Christian moved, I noticed by my side that Riza was going near him and me. "Hello, guests" a sweet, creepy, old voice sounded. Honestly, I am spooked out by her voice. "Can we still check in miss?" Christian asked letting go of one of his hands from my legs. Slowly and surely my body slid down as I embraced my mind for the impact on my neck. "Careful," Riza said whispering to me? as she held my shoulders up. "Yes we do" the old woman replied. Christian seemed to notice how I was slipping off his shoulders as he grabbed my legs and pulled me back up. As I looked up (with my eyes obvi not my neck) Riza waved before walking to the old man.
"Please follow me to check In," the old lady said. "Can we put her down first?" Christian asked as he poked my legs(probably pointing at me). "Oh! You can put her in the sun lounger down there" the lady replied. "Thanks," he said turning in a left direction. Finally placing me down as he pulled back and probably walked with the group to check In I saw one of the most breathtaking views I have ever seen In my life. "Though I do need to remind you to take your friend to your room before 6:00" I heard the old lady say as they walk further and further away. I gazed at the beautiful sunset as the time struck 6:00. Slowly from the waves, beautiful mermaids emerged from them as more and more got drifted to the sand.
My paralyzed face suddenly cracked as my face was filled with terror at the sight. As the mermaids, beautiful tails dried up and turned into human bones, a light blue skin enveloped them from the toes. The gills on its arms also turned to a bone with light blue skin. Sadly they did not get any muscles and fat to turn into beautiful maidens. They played volleyball as my whole body shook from the sight of this abomination. Just a slight bump on their bone makes it shatter making them return to the sea to be a mermaid and dry up again to remake their bones. I can hear one of them talk excusing their selves from the game. Magically a TnT launcher fell to the sky to my side.
Moving my body surely but slowly I got used to the pain I feel every time I move. Picking up the heavy launcher I placed it in my broken shoulder as pain enveloped my brain threatening to make me pass out. Aiming it on those abominations I pulled the trigger as blood and bones scattered on the sands and air. "What the heck?!" the old man shouted as he ran to me. The old woman came running to me as she shouted "WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY BABIES!." So she made these abominations? I turned to her as I pulled the trigger once again. A sharp pain came unexpectedly as I kneeled down putting the mouth of the launcher to the ground. I looked up to the people I shot. I saw a half of their body is ruined and scattered. I gritted my teeth and stood up as Christian ran to me shooting with his pistol. Not one of them hit me so I pulled the trigger once again as I flew back from the third impact.
I flew to the wall behind me as my body stickily stuck to the wall. Among the fumes of the impact, I saw Riza walk to me. My head lowered as my blood dried. pushing myself forward I fell to my face as I heard Riza's footsteps stop one step from my head. Taking a deep breath in my mind I used my hands to stand up. Extending her hand she looked at me with a soft smile as she winked at me. Stunned I stared at her for a while before I put my hand in her's. She helped me inside one of the rooms in the hotel giving me medical attention.
A loud Christian song blasted in my ear as I woke up from my slumber. "Mommy?" I muttered turning to one side. "Good Morning baby sleep more" she replied as I drifted off to another dream.
