Kellen's jacket started to blink again but this time the blink was normal and at a steady pace. He smiled and looked around. As soon as his eyes caught the mere sight of her light caramel skin, he waved his hand up calling her name, "Hey, Ella come here."
Ella who had just entered the lawn after having finished her routines was walking around the lawn to see if Kellen invited her for something. She was too scared if it turned out to be fake planning. Ella didn't know how guys think or react when they are around girls. She thought that having just known her, Kellen would easily bail on her and move on to his important tasks. But here when she saw the jacket bearer waving his hands in front of the whole discussion group who gawked their faces at her, brought cold chills over her body. Her face was turning redder than before. She tried to shoot a small smile at him as she walked near to the duo.
"Hi," She said slowly after she caught up to them. Cassandra was boiling the fire of jealousy as she saw the same girl having an alone conversation with Kellen. On the other hand, she couldn't withstand the fact that Kellen was giving her attention instead of her.
"What are you, Ella? That the Talented Shimer Kellen couldn't give his eyes or ears to the Shimer Queen." The Shimer Queen blinked with a narrowed eye look and watched in disgruntle as the trio seems to be having some happy conversation which killed her from inside.
"Alright, before anyone makes any assumptions and starts to make discussions on their own, I have to say something first." A charming voice entered the group. The silky wavy hairs over his shoulders were sounding like a sudden order and yet when he used his voice it was truly appealing.
Ella looked at her front while the duo beside her smirked at the owner of the voice, "Go on Dylan" Kellen said looking at him with a short pulled-up nod gesture.
"The reason most of you are gathered here today is for finding out what the hell is in that Illusion Land?" He put up his index finger to show he was counting the number of reasons. His firm face was exclusively prominent of his charms. Dylan had a more attractive appearance and yet he didn't like big talks and meaningless conversations. His silver eyes held the power of silence towards him from the others around. He was always tying a bun over the back of his head to avoid his hair disturbing him in the matter of serious conversations. Thanks to Isla his hair was all messed up. 'Damn you, Isla' He cursed her inside his mind. He saw the group of students as well as Kellen and Jareth always fighting and messing around while leaving the important topics to be untold. His traditional clothing made his appearance more sacred to others. He had a leather bracelet over his right hand since his birth, which he had never removed.
"Second thing, there's a dangerous witch living there, who might be leaking the evil entities" He brought his second finger up.
As soon as he caught notice of the locket bearer, he smiled at her and then his eyes fell over at the locket slightly gleaming under the night light. Ella smiled back, "Hello, Ella. After your recent admission, you seem to be the talk of the town here." He added after he shared a glare with the Shimer Queen. "Well, people say meaningless things because they can find the time to do cool things and bitch about things, but cannot find time for rather such important discussions. I mean look at the Shimer Queen, the Masters had to write an official letter to her so that she can look into this matter." Cassandra rolled her eyes at his statement.
"Isn't it right Shimer Queen?" He asked her, Kellen looked at her and blinked his eyes away at Dylan. Ella saw her rolling her pearl blue eyes.
She looked at him again who was waiting for her response and so were the others. Cassandra had a warm olive skin tone which highly emphasized her curvy figure and her slit dresses. Being the Shimer Queen she wore a deep-neck empire dress which had a front slit till her upper thigh. The orange-coloured dress covered her legs and just her right thigh was swept open with her leg pulled out in front as if she was just getting started to show her slither and slim body.
"As we all know, that someone here doesn't like wasting their time, then why don't we move ahead of this rather meaningless topic" She flattered a huge smile showing her flakey teeth and then looked away in annoyance.
Dylan sighed a short breath out shrugging his shoulders, "And the third thing is that only a certain amount of people will be selected to go into the Dark Tunnel- that is the place where the Witch is rumoured to be seen recently in the Illusion Land."
"Take your time to think for a few minutes and then we will share our talks." He clapped his hands forward denoting a sign to the group standing around him for continuing the discussion after thinking for a while.
Ella looked at Kellen, as she found him too preoccupied with some thought. The locket bearer looked around herself from the learners who had gathered to discuss the topics together. 'If it's a discussion, then I should have some points ready on my own' She thought to herself.
The crystal scoffed catching her attention. "No one can catch that cranky witch, or let alone can find where she lives." Ella entered inside the living place of the Crystal with her soul. As if her soul was slowly getting threaded to the crystal with the power he was giving her and yet Ella could only feel rage over his rugged behaviour toward Kellen. She could never forgive him for being too over-smart about his takt powers. But when he used a certain cursed adjective for the Witch of Illusion Land, her thoughts were forced to stop fighting against it. She curiously walked inside the glowing two concentric crystal colour circles of twelve and walked near the same place where she encountered it last time. The crystal was glowing the same colour, "How do you know about her?' She asked him or rather ordered him.
