In a place unknown to man a majestic castle made of pure white comes in view the light bouncing off the wall giving it a pure glow making it shine amidst the darkness. On the walls of the castle cracks and crevices are seen depicting the lack of proper maintance for a long time . On the doors statues of tall men we grotesque features are seen giving it the haunted house feeling .
Deep within it in a spacious bedroom a figure with full white hair is seen lying on the bed the movement of her chest being the only sign of living.
The chest movement come to a momentary stop followed by the flattering of her eyelids and the gradual opening gracing the world with her white irises.
The moment she gains clarity she looks around and yawns. "Aaah...it's been long ...I'm finally awake..."
........
Back to the dilipated apartment a kid with messy hair lying on the ground stares blankly holding into a piece of paper with large words written in bold EVICTION NOTICE.
He looks around the room and laughs lightly. "Hahaha...seriously ...who would think that this shabby place would cost so much...well guess I have to collect my side jobs salary ahead of time."
He gets up from his matress puts on his hoody and heads out of his room. He comes into contact with the bustling night life of xandria city. Street light chasing off the darkness providing a fleeting sense of security. The moving vehicles driving off the silence making it more lightly. But despite all this one couldn't miss the figure of the scrawny boy heading into the mall area wearing a large black hoody and large white glasses.
In the mall he heads towards the reception where a middle aged lady sat reading a fashion magazine.
"Hey miss S" he says slowly .
"HMH" she lifts her head and replies " Oh hey kiddo how you doing long time no see" she puts down her magazine and looks straight into his eyes . She then furrows her eye brows and let's out her breath lightly.
"Hah...let me make a guess you're here to cash in another favour adding up more cash into you're already heavy dept ." She looks at him awaiting his answer.
"Sigh you know me pretty well Sandra...and yes would you lend me some cash and I'm gonna payback with Labour worth the cash this time..."
Even before completing his words Sandra interrupts him " how much ..."
He takes out the notice and hands it over. She picks it up and checks it out for while before releasing a deep breath. "Three months.." She finally says.
"Three months what ?" He asks confuses. She looks at him deeply and says " Three months worth of Labour and we have a deal ". Kael thinks about it finally relents." Three months worth of Labour and a cup instant noodles every night." She takes out her hand " shake on it "
They both shake on and she hands him the cash.
He quickly counts and finds that it's hundred more than the required amount. He looks at her gratefully before keeping his money in his pocket and heading out .
While this money business was going on, in the mall a man in his late teens was there checking out the entire turn of events . He followed up on their conversation and the moment he saw the bundle his eyes shone with stars before calling someone through his phone.
" Hey check the kid coming from Sasha's shop." He quickly hangs up and exits the shop.Sasha with no idea of what happened went on with her work not knowing that the little she saw today wasn't going to be the same again.
On the streets Kael kept on walking growing uneasy as time went on till he heard a faint sobbing voice coming from the alley beside him.
" Help...somebody..please don't do this..."he creased his eyes hoping to see what was going on but couldn't .
"Sigh it doesn't involve you Kael you're no hero just go home as usual....but then what if...awash let me check it out ." He walked in while shouting.
" Miss are you okay..." but the moment he took his fifth step he saw a scantily dressed lady in black with a cigarette in her lips mimicking the same words with a bored expression "please someone help..."She stops midway when noticing his arrival . The moment Kael saw this immediately cursed " shot..." and turned to run but he was too late.
The moment he turned around he saw four men checking him out with wretched smiles.
"Olaaaa...we have a cute one today I call dibs "
One of them says while slowlyapproaching him
Kael kept taking two steps back whenever the man took one." Please leave I have nothing on me...."
The moment he talked the lady behind him result invaded his hoods pocket taking out the cash.
"No..." kael said lunging towards the ladies hand ònly to be kicked mercilessly towards the wall.
"He's all yours now boys and make it fast." She said to the guys while heading deeper into the dark alley.Kael watched pleadingly "Please you have the cash let me go.."only to be interrupted by a pocket knife thrown at him.
"Two options..."one of the men said"...1.take you're own pitiful life and rest eternally or 2.you head over with Suzy here and have some fun." He points at the rhin figure that called Kael cute while smiling.
"Choose wisely kid you're life or you're dignity." The other said plainly." Tehehehe...don't worry I'll take good care of you." Suzy added only to notice that the silent Kael was staring into their eyes one after the other. Then after releasing a sigh he picks up the pocket knife and places on next to his throat.
"Don't be rash kid" kid the man who hadn't spoken up said trying to stop only to be splashed by blood on his face from Kael's neck." Hope we don't meet in the next life coz you won't have a choice." Kael said his consciousness fading deep into the abys
.......................
In a faraway place in the white castle the white haired lady turns to a random direction her eyes gaining clarity before smiling and saying "interesting so they survived though the bloodline is faint but it will do." She stretches her hand in the direction she's facing and in that random alley Kaels body stops twitching and abruptly vanishes scaring them to death.
