Chapter 39 - FORCES II

for some reason Lucy felt familiar with the voice but she didn't know where she heard it from

" If I knew earlier I wouldn't have asked that queen of theirs for help but it was her loss and my gain as I would have a fist on the blood of her people they day I finally attain victory "

Lucy turned to look at all the people who were locked up

" hey their " a little girl from behind her called

" you can see me " Lucy questioned surprised and the little girl nodded with a smile

" yes and I know who you are " she said

" really " Lucy became more surprised at the attitude and courage of the little girl

" yes I know you are the one who killed our queen and also don't get worried as am the only one who can see you " she assured

" why "

" because am blessed with a gift of vision

your time is running out and your husband is becoming worried"

" but why are you here "

" it's a long story "

Lucy didn't want to leave without the little girl and she knew that her time here was becoming limited

something told her that this little girl would be of great use to both her and Zack so she made up her mind to help her

" where's your mum "

" she's in in other world " on hearing this Lucy suddenly became guilty

" don't feel guilty you weren't at fault and if anyone was in your place they would have done the same " the little girl comforted on seeing the sudden change of Lucy's expression.

Lucy looked around and when she saw it was safe she held the chain breaking them with her powers

none of them wanted attention so they carefully swan to shore unnoticed

when they arrived the little syren with Lucy suddenly had legs making her tail vanish

Lucy suddenly began fading away and within few minutes she opened her eyes and saw Zack worried sick

" Lucy are you okay " he questioned and she nodded she looked around looking for the little syren but couldn't find her

Zack noticed that she became worried and also started looking around worried that something bad was about to happen

" Am right here " they both heard her say as she came out from behind the boxes.

" I had to wear something and I didn't have anything to wear so u tied this piece of cloth

Zack who didn't know who she was turned to question Lucy but found her unconscious.

he picked her up about to leave the room when the little girl stopped him

" I feel danger outside the room " she warned

Zack didn't want to risk anything so he decided to check how things were going with Catherine

'Catherine where are you right now ' he questioned through telepathy

' I and Alex are going to the room because their was a suddenly wave outside ruining our dinner '

' Lucy just passed out '

' shit I'll send him back so you can bring her here '

' no it would look suspicious

just lure him to the store room I'll take it from their '

Catherine turned to find Alex staring at her with a smile

he must surely be day dreaming

" hmm Alex can I please get an extra blanket"

" sure but it's in the store room "

" fine by me but please let's go and get it now please " she hugged him and it seemed to have done the trick

Alex led the way to the store room when they got to the corridor the lights suddenly went out and a heavy metal fell

Alex clicked his fingers and their was suddenly light

he found Lucy lying on the floor he rushed to pick her up and took her to her room

meanwhile Catherine transformed back into her form and teleported back to the room as if nothing happened

Alex called the doctor and left the room while Zack and the little syren teleported into the room

she walked towards Lucy placing her hand on her head

" she's just tired and weak the effect would ware off in due time"

" and who are you " Zack questioned and walked towards her

" am princess Anasia , the future queen of the syren "

" the syren you say where is your mother "

" she passed on arent you aware it was the same day she and you wife had a fight "

" are you trying to say my wife killed your mother and what do you mean by that " he asked infuriated but little Anasia just laughed.

" I might look young but I can tell you this am way older than you are

we syrens take time to fully develop and I don't know why you got annoyed hearing what I said

so I'll like to remind you

remember the day you jumped into the sea because you didn't want to harm your wife

that was the same day her and my mum got into a fight and during the fight she got a nail scratch from my mum and got posioned which you somehow managed to heal her from

do you remember? "

after hearing what she said Zacks mind went back to the time they were both at his island but he didn't remember Lucy getting involved in a fight

" don't be worried am not like my mum , I did warn her but she didn't listen "

Zack didn't know what to say he just stood their dumbfounded.

" and how do you plan on staying here ".

" only those I want to see me can see me ". she informed and he nodded

he suddenly sensed Alex presence so he teleported out of the room

Anasia sat and watch as the doctor attention to Lucy

*. . *. . *

I opened my eyes and saw the little syren smiling at me

" why are smiling " I questioned

" nothing just that you look cute while sleeping " she smiled also making me smile

" what's you're name "

" Anasia princess Anasia "

" nice meeting you am princess Lucy "

" are you also a princess"

" yes " I smiled

" how old are you " she questioned with all seriousness

" am twenty four what about you "

" am older than you are " she said I nodded I knew syrens do take time to develop so I understand

" so won't they noticed that you are gone "

" no they won't as they don't know who I am "

" but who's that man do you know his name or anything " I questioned raising my hope

" am not sure but I think its Lucas "

" what "

I couldn't believe what I was saying

Cathrine suddenly woke up and looked at me

" sorry " I apologized and she laid back

" your cat loves sleeping " Anasia said and I nodded

" do you know how I'll save my people "

" as of now I don't but am hungry" she complained and I nodded.

I made my way for the kitchen but when I got to the stairs alex was their

" Lucy are you okay ? how are you feeling and .... "

" shh Alex am okay am just hungry "

" okay hold on " he said and led me to the sitting room I sat and waited for him while he brought a tray of food

" hmm Alex do you mind if I go to my room I ... " I pretended to feel dizzy and he supported me from behind

" don't worry I'll take you their "

I couldn't refuse as I didn't want any suspicion from him

I turned to face him pretending to be bothered about something

" a ... Alex"

" yes Lucy what's wrong " he questioned raising my face to face me

" actually i want ice cream".

" really so what's their to feel shy about

feel free asking me for thinking so why flavor do you want ". he asked

" chocolate, vanilla and strawberry " I smiled placing my hand around his neck

" hmm okay I'll get it "

" thanks " I smiled and took the tray from him heading to my room
