Chapter 4 - chapter 4: Eyah

Inside of the nine fox entertainment building in an office on the 23rd floor sat a young a beautiful girl doing homework at a desk. The girl had blackish hair with a blue tint and dark blue eyes, her hair went down unto her neck, she had a small and cute face with a small nose and lips.

This girl is 17 years old and and her name is Eyah, She is an orphan who currently works for nine fox entertainment as a body double for one of their most popular artists. This artist goes by the name of lily and she is apart of an idol group of young girls that are the most popular girl group that officially debuted this year.

Now one might ask themselves why a 17 years old idol would need a body double and what job would said double be?

The answer for the most part is that lily is the little princess of a noble family and wanted to be a famous idol worshipped by millions and her family paved the way for her. But parading around in the public may damage her reputation and some people may have ill intentions because she is a noble lady so they looked for alternate solutions. Eyah happened to be an orphan in the middle of school who had above average grades and no future plans in life yet.

The noble family had partnered with nine fox entertainment and approached Eyah a generous offer to sign up as an idol for 5 years and get paid enough to go to college and live comfortable for a few years off of the payment alone. The conditions were that she would be the body double of lily and do any performances or activities when lily couldn't or didn't want to.

She would essentially be handing control over her entire life over to an entertainment company for a few years so that life could then be used for the enjoyment of another girl.

She was approached when she was 15 years old and after she signed the agreement she spent a year and a half training in singing and dancing with lily sometimes accompanying her. She was assigned a manager and her actions were restricted like what she can eat, where she can go or who she can associate with.

It wasn't really that much of a bother to Eyah, While she was not socially awkward or inept she tended not to get too close to people. She would be polite and get acquainted with her classmates and those she would often interact with such as the teaching staff. But beyond being a good student or a quiet girl she was really no one special.

On this ordinary day she was diligently doing her homework while lily was in a small meeting space discussing what she wanted to do for the weekend with their manager. While princess lily was a little spoiled and a bit narcissistic she was also prideful and intelligent. She seemed to have a genuine passion for music and being an idol.

She would not artificially inflate her popularity or suppress other artists to rise to the top but neither would she allow herself to struggle for no reason or be bullied. Eyah, the manager, the other members of her idol group and the staff that interacts with her are the best of the best in their field and have been thoroughly vetted privately for the safety of lily. They have abundant resources and a diligent work regiment so although Eyah was restricted and controlled in some aspects she didn't really care because none of her morals were violated nor was she forced to do things she didn't want to.

After doing her job for a few years shell have a smooth journey through college and if she doesn't majorly screw herself over she'll be set for life in a tier 1 city. She thinks pretty realistically because 1st tier city's are extremely competitive and being forced to leave to a 2nd tier city is considered shameful because its a sign of lack of ability or incompetence.

While Eyah was sitting back on her chair and twirling her pencil between her fingers as she looked down at the work she had done so far.

Meanwhile the small patches in the sky started to burn in a colorful fire, at first it was a small patch of blue and then some yellow and orange flames the vibrant red flames. This was happening all over the world and was spreading every minute which on a planetary scale is terrifying.

The clouds gathered like a storm was brewing in many areas and those clouds continued to gather and grow.

Those clouds rumbled and flashed with thunder and lighting like a hurricane of immense force was brewing.

The ground started to rumble and shake and began to crash against itself like waves in the ocean.

Mountains collapsed on themselves and the oceans formed tsunamis hundreds of meters tall.

The sky fire started to spread and burn rapidly like a god performed a chemistry experiment on the worlds atmosphere.

While all of this happened on a matter of minutes Eyah noticed something odd when the sky began to darken on a day forecasted to be sunny all day.

"I swear that the weather forecasts are unreliable these days, now I have to go let lily know"

Eyah packed up her work and out it in her bag before heading to the room where lily and the manager were conversing. She approached the blurry glass door and knocked on it three times and after a few moments the blurry effect disappeared leaving crystal clear glass.

Lily was sitting at the table and waved at Eyah when she saw her with a smile, The manager got up and answered the door looking directly at Eyah asking what she wanted to say. Eyah told her that clouds were gathering and darkening at a fast rate and that they should get prepared for rain and call the chauffer for lily to get home.

The manager leaned out of the doorway and looked towards the large glass window, seeing the she she quickly agreed and pulled out her phone to make a quick call.
