Chapter 14 - His Awakening

BALLERINA TRAINING ROOM 1

Lascrea at that time was stretching her body along with other ballerina friends.

"Ouch, it hurts so bad. The pain is still there even after the body patch are attached," said Lascrea while rubbing her waist.

"Lascrea, are you all right?" asked one of Lascrea's ballet buddies with a worried face.

"Hehe, I-I'm fine. Only this was bitten by a beast," answered Lascrea without thinking.

"Wild animals?" His friend's face became confused at that time.

"Haha, n-no. It's nothing. Oh yeah, let's help each other stretch," said Lascrea to her friend, because ballet dancers have to stretch their bodies to the extreme.

After that, they also played some songs and danced as a warm-up.

At first, everything went smoothly and dynamically, until Lascrea felt a female voice calling out to her.

Lascrea suddenly turned around and saw who was calling her at that time, however, when she turned around there was absolutely no one there.

"Geez, what's this? Why do I feel bad, huh?" Lascrea muttered while holding her shoulder which was starting to get goosebumps.

One of her friends who saw Lascrea not continue her dance and just stood there rebuked Lascrea and asked her, what happened?

Lascrea, who at that time only felt that it might all be an illusion, immediately replied with a shake of her head, then she continued her activities again with her friends.

***

Exactly noon.

Now was the time for them to rest after almost half a day of dancing and moving their bodies.

One by one Lascrea's friends said goodbye to take their bags and went to the cafeteria to enjoy their lunch.

"Lascrea, we go first," said one of her friends along with other friends who also followed behind her.

"Yeah, you guys go first. I still have to do one last dance," Lascrea replied with a smile, then her friends looked down and walked to the cafeteria first.

Lascrea returned to her training after seeing her friends leave at that time. The vast training hall, now there was only Lascrea alone.

"Alright, this is my last dance." Lascrea then prepared with a ballet dancer-style pose ready to dance.

Ting. Ting. Ting.

The music began to play along with the beautiful phoenix-like dance.

In the dance, which tells the love story of two people who are making love, she begins to imagine the face of Allail who she feels is right there, and looks at her.

Suddenly, without Lascrea realizing it, another female voice called out to her.

"Lascrea, Lascrea." The woman's voice grew clearer and clearer in Lascrea's ears.

Lascrea, who was starting to get scared at that time, immediately stopped dancing while exploring all corners of the empty hall.

"What's this? Why do I keep hearing strange voices? Why does a woman's voice keep calling me?" asked Lascrea while holding her neck once again, feeling very goosebumps.

"Lascrea." The woman's voice felt right in Lascrea's right ear, she turned around as fast as lightning to her right, but there was no one there.

The frightened Lascrea slowly backed away and started running towards the exit.

Bang!

The door closed itself.

Lascrea started to look this way and that with her breathing becoming erratic and a feeling of dread starting to overwhelm her.

Suddenly, there was a hand that tapped her shoulder. Lascrea, who was scared, screamed uncontrollably.

"Kyaa, aaa, aaa!" Lascrea looked down while closing her eyes and ears tightly.

"Hey," a man called.

Lascrea slowly opened her eyes when she heard someone's voice and who was standing in front of her at that time her foot stepped on the floor.

Lascrea slowly looked up doubtfully.

It turned out that what was standing was the main supporter and investor for the ballet dance club that Lascrea was participating in at that time.

"Oh, Sir?" Lascrea got up from her bowed position while smiling shyly at the time.

"What are you doing here?" asked that guy.

"I'm practicing, sir," answered Lascrea politely.

"Oh, didn't you hear that woman's voice calling you again?" asked that guy.

Suddenly Lascrea's eyes widened, she immediately looked with a scared look on the face of that guy who was grinning at that time.

Lascrea began to back away, slowly away from that guy, and then ran.

"Why won't it open." Lascrea was stricken with anxiety when the door to the hall where she was practicing would not open at all, while the old man, who was acting strangely, drew closer to her.

"Lascrea."

Suddenly there was a woman's figure translucent like smoke, approaching her.

"Give me half of my soul!" the woman asked as she continued to approach Lascrea.

"W-what? What soul? I have absolutely no idea!" Lascrea tried to stay away from the woman who was getting closer to her at that time.

"Lascrea," she called again as she continued to approach Lascrea's mouth and tried to inhale something from it.

The woman inhaled what looked like a lump of red smoke from within Lascrea's body quickly.

Lascrea was terrified, but she couldn't do anything to fight the woman. Her body was completely powerless, immobile, and unstoppable.

About 10 minutes later, the woman had taken all the red smoke from Lascrea's body and now Lascrea was lying weak.

She saw dimly the woman who was originally just white translucent smoke, slowly changed and took on the form of a normal human, with a face similar to Lascrea but she had a thorny plant tattoo around her stomach.

"Welcome, Amone," said Bahkil, an angel who had just emerged from the body of the investor.

Lascrea immediately fainted after hearing Amone's words and saw the form of the woman who took something from her body.

***

"Lascrea, Lascrea wake up! Hey, wake up!" called Moore who was trying to wake her up by shaking her body.

Not long after, Lascrea, who felt someone shaking her body, slowly came to her senses and opened her eyes.

"M-Moore?" She saw Moore and the other friends standing around her at that time.

"Are you all right?" asked Moore, helping to wake Lascrea.

"I-I..." Lascrea tried to remember what had happened, but she couldn't remember it at all.

Suddenly, a man ran and pushed his way through the crowd surrounding Lascrea at that time. Yes, it was Allail who had been called by Coach Lascrea the first time he saw Lascrea faint.

"Lascrea, honey!" Allail also pulled Lascrea from Moore. He hugged her tightly to comfort her.

"Allail, I-"

"Shhh, just shut up, calm down I will always protect you," said Allail who seemed like he already knew what happened at that time.
