Chao's everywhere, their were undead surrounding her and a man next to her, lying
in her embrace breathing his last breathe she stood middle of all it silently weeping in the
middle of all it, she wishes "...If...only if this was all a dream, no...if I could go back if I knew this was coming....I shouldn't have ignore it...."she mumbled as the hoard was coming nearer and she decided not to try lost in her regrets, the man lying besides her who's breath was slowing which was obvious enough why.....she kisses him as a last goodbye, the man smiling at her respond in a soft and weak voice ".....its not your fault, daisuki...." and the man shut his eye and lie silently their...not that weak sound of breath was to be heard...that was his last word.....he was gone...tears repeatedly falling she hold him tightly and cried, and suddenly before her eye she vaguely saw a women standing their gazing at her straight it seems as if all the earlier voices and busting noise....quite...she lock her eye to her gaze....her eyes widen
" its her....." she murmur.....the women she was searching since the begining of all this
" why...why did you show yourself now...after all this...why now...its all because of you...."
(......)'Will you want to go back?' she said "I can help you...." "why should I believe you...after all you have put me through!" " You will eventually know....now do you want to save them?" she was silent but realizing that she had no other choice than believe her she decided to forget about her own feeling and follow her" yes" ".......after you go back things won't be same anymore it will be more hard-"
" I know so just send me back I won't repeat it again.." " remember everything comes for a prize". A strong bright light display tearing everything it touches and she felt the very pain of it as it burn and tear its skin until it vanishes.
When she regain her consciousness she felt a strong headache and dizziness she open her eye and saw a bright light which turn out to be her table light and her book shelf at the left side and all the notice paste in the wall....she was in her study table she quickly stand up and glance around it was the same.....everything she could remember and haven't seen for a long time then she hear a voice....people taking....she look up and saw her roommate sitting in the China bed all facing each other gossiping and cracking jokes she stand still for a moment trying to collect her thoughts....she was happy...but her happiness didn't last long as she remember what's going to come next she hurriedly claim the small stairs to the China bed, they stop and look at her in her sudden approach she was gasping and trembling they could see her tears...everyone was shock, very quite then her one friend broke the silence and asked

" alright let's see this portal and dimension of yours, if it turn's out to be false than you are so dead..." Shashmita saying that came down other also follow her " You won't get to" she reply and smile, she told her friends to follow her outside and to stay close so that not to get lost, even though they were not convince by that they went along as she said thinking that she will give up soon, Leina hold the torch and light before her so she could she the way she guide her friends and went on the long hallway, it was taking longer the hallway seem endless but they convince themselves by saying it was because of the lights out, but to her it didn't bother her, Leina seem to be knowing where exactly she was going.
To be continue:
Nancy... she was not yet fully awake when Irfana pull her out of the bed when asked Irfana briefly told her about the situation she was surprise to hear that and seeing that all her roomate were gathering and seeing the tension in the atmosphere....Leina seem to be trying to explain something then before she could say anything they were down and ready to go, Irfana told her to just come along " come with us I will tell to outside..." "okay.." " Oh....Nancy your up? you were sleeping so I guess you don't understand any of it yet" " well....Irfana tell a bit but I don't understand...is it true?" " hmm....it is I will explain latter" Nancy didn't say anything she was still confuse but decided not to asked further, " take a bag and just take what you will need no need to bring unessarry stuff oh yeah bring eatable and water let's not waste time, alright you guys ready? once out their no returning back, follow me closely..." she open the door and keep it ajar signally to follow her, they follow her outside it was pitch dark nothing could be seen, the hallway seem hollow
somehow the quietness scare them it felt ominous, Leina took out a torch and use it so to see the way if not all other did the same, in the dark hallway only the voices of their wishper and the sound of their footsteps were echoing...."Leina...what about the others? we need to tell them and what about warden? we should tell them first..." Preety suggest "we can't..." "huh?" "even if we want to we can't......we are all separated"
"of course we are.. they are in different room......let's go and tell all this okey?" Thelei said..." U won't find them .... right now only our room...and only us is here but I do know that if we stay here we will die...so we need to find the portal" everyone was struck to know that but not so convince by it, Albina says " what if we try checking around maybe we can find them?" she turn around and replied " its no use you can find nothing.....our priority now is to escape from here...." " how can you say that...you mean we are going to leave them here? to die? although I am not saying I completely believe you still something is weird anyway how do U kno-" "wait! I forget something" Raibila turn and rush back" wait! Raibila! its dangerou-" they all hurriedly follow her, Raibila suddenly stop and she point in front of her, her hand were shaking" pant*" What were you thinking!? running off like that! do yo know ho-what wrong!?" " its gone...." " what?" everyone rush to her and ask what was wrong but what they saw there they find it impossible to believe... " everything is gone....our bed, furniture and windows...." Cindy mumble the girls cover their mouth in disbelief " t...their is something their..." Thelei aim the torch..." yes is it moving? gas?" Nancy guess " no...that's..GET OUT!! get out of the room!! hurry!!" everyone was taken aback in her scream they hurriedly run out, " hurry! follow me this way!" behind them in the room a moving wheel like shape was to be seen which seem to be sucking the whole room and everything in it....it was getting bigger...loud sound of the footsteps and scream echoed the whole hallway.... they run without stopping nor turning back, after running for few minutes nonstop when they thought they couldn't see it anymore they halt their race and take a deep breath......everyone was out of breath they collapse on the floor and breathe heavily....." wha...ha...what was that!?...ha" Irfana breath out " what the hell! that scare the shit out of me! phew*...." Linthoi join her " what...what was that Leina!?" Thelei ask, Leina. was still shock with what just happen she was sitting on the floor with her legs spread and her hand was at the floor supporting herself her eye had widen she lock her eye at the long dark hallway where they just run off from.."ha...ha...that's...no way...how can it be here..." " wha...what!?" Raibila shouts panicking she was lost in her thoughts " how can it appear here?.....but in my previous life nothing like this happen...it wasn't this dangerous from the start....what..." then she suddenly remember that women " is it because I change the past? is this what she meant!?....I.." a sudden jolt disturb her though
" na..Leina!!?" Nancy was calling her "oh....I.." then she was back to reality, Preety look at her and ask " Leina what was that? it was...it was eating the room...no not only room the whole thing just got sucked! and it was following us..."
" its a *Space guzzle*" all was quite for a moment in astonishment, they were putting an expression that says 'what's that!? U kidding me?' " its just pull in anything like eat up....and their's no guarantee when it will appear again....if it can appear from now then maybe that's why everything disappear....I don't know...but its no good if we got suck....its very dangerous...ha*"
" so you mean it can appear anytime?" Linthoi ask, everyone was in despair they all sat their silently...after few minutes the dark and silent atmosphere added the girls were very frighten
they finally realize how serious was the situation and that what Leina was telling the truth they were silent as they didn't know what to say....after the life and death situation they all were put in a deep thought some of them were break down and cried other also give up and started calling home and praying, Leina who was watching all of it didn't know how to console them that they will all fell assure she knew she can't do that and she didn't wanna make uncertain commitment and disappoint them latter she though " after all its uncertain what to come and I can't always protect them..." she let them cried out thinking it will at least make them feel lighter she was reminded of her past...." Nana* ....if U want to protect someone you have to be stronger than the stronger one" she remember a strict yet caring voice....she look at her watch realizing that they don't have any time to waste anymore she stood up " guys we don't have much time, if we don't leave now....it not safe here-" " We will be leaving this place and going home right? U are gonna get us out of here.....I am sure U will take us their right Leina?" Chetnashrie cried out and hold out her hand towards her waiting for a positive answer,
but she was freeze to see her cold emotionless
expression her hand was left cold everyone could feel the chill...they thought it was someone else that is before her not that soft or easy going Leina anymore...Leina...turn around
leaving her be " get up I don't have much time....if you all are gonna just sit their crying then be my guest I can't wait for you all...get up
brace yourself up....even if the world end its not the end of us...this is just a 'New Beginning'..." They all thought Leina was just bragging about all that stuff at first but after seeing her composure and confident after all that and not losing oneself at the critical time...that was not just anybody can do...she was bold but the aura that she gave of right now seem to be overwhelming it is as if she had long live this all and she could do anything...this was not the Leina in their memory, Nancy was watching at her Sharp eye as it was sparkling " You..Who are you?" she queried
To be continue:
"You...Who are you?..." "........." she pick up her bag she move her left foot forward and move along saying" I am your friend.." she relax her forhead muscle and smirks*" ah...." she pick herself up and follow that big figure*....she turn her head and tilts a bit and said " well what R U guys waiting for?...U heard her, no time to dely daly" " Wait...Leina...." Irfana run along "oh..man no use sitting....come on" Linthoi pat chetnashrie's shoulder and stood up gesturing others to follow...the girls start their race again
preety run up....tap* tap* " so where to?" " Can you see any other way?" "no..." " don't worry we will reach soon..the portal" as they continue to walk they could feel the change in temperature,
although it changes but it was still very dark and it made them even more anxious*, they would stop for a moment and rest when they could not keep up, some take off their outer attire because it was perching hot and sometimes it would be so cold that they could freeze so they would run but they can't keep up for long like that as they all were tired (drinking water)*glup* " this temp is quit well let's rest a bit....." Leina said closing the bottle cap..
"ohh....I am worn out*" Irfana flopped down on the floor she handed the bottle to her..smile*
..." thanks"she takes and have a sip.." how are you guys hanging?" she asked the girls, they all seem exhausted..." well.... not dead yet..." Thelei replied " I think I will be dead even before reaching portal" Raibila said taking the bottle...
from Irfana "I am so tired..and hungry...." Chatnashrie said in distress " me too.." Albina
join her " how much food is left?" she asked
" I still have some biscuits and a cake" Cindy took out from her bag " I have some can juice..."
Nancy shake the juice, other also took something out and they gather them together "hmm...okey let's have it for now and we will continue after we are done" they all sit together and have the snack " you know what...I was very excited for tomorrow...I had all this stuff I thought of doing and I never expect something like this to happen...now I don't even know whether I could see my parents ever again..."Shashmita saying that put her head down and stare at the biscuit in her hand suddenly it was quit.... everyone had something or other to say.....but this doesn't effect her..she keep silent the entire time while here friend talk about their regrets and disappointments while her friend were telling about how bad her live had been...she was reminded of her home.. not like she miss them she remember one day in Call day she receive a call from her home" ......yes...." " I am sure you do remember what I told you..right?" after spending so much time and effort in something like you....I hope you don't forget our kindness , if you can't even place first...but I am sure you can...after all you can't effort to be disappointed...I think I can look forward to your result...and I will tell your aunt to pick you up after you exam.. okey now go back do your stuff" "don't worry....U won't be disappointed.."
...such easily spoken words but to her it was like a shackle to her, everyone had different expectations, some praise her but she know it was not really a praise it was hollow and empty word....jealousy...admiration...expectations.....
...hatred and disappointment....but she like it here...
she like when the doom started after all it was what taught her teamwork, hearing a sincere praise and the feeling of someone caring for her the feeling of love.....and the feeling of guilt...she never had this much emotions in outside world....at least she was free....from the those shackle....but if not this than other will again occupy her.....the heavy regret and the heavy grive....she realized after all she was never free....it was her life...so she didn't care how much worse it will get she just try her best not to repeat her mistake...this time she will really be appreciate and thanks and she wanted to save them and.....Johnathan its better not get involve with him... after they finish eating, now their food and water had run out they need to hurry, she brace herself up and get up ready to go....they again continue....it was peaceful for a while but not for long....they saw a light from afar....it seems to be twinkling from the distance.." what is that!?" Nancy point her figure
" oh its light! finally we are getting out..." said Thelei with expectations " not so early.....wait don't approach yet....let's observe from here" Leina tells them " yeah I think she right I don't want something like earlier to happen.....again"
Linthoi reminded looking at Raibila...." You mean that was my fault!? how will I know something like that will happene?" " did I say it's your fault?" " then why did you say that while looking at me you were obviously telling it was my fault!?" " ohh...looks like you do know it's your fault since you have being saying it"
"what? when did I- " " guys stop arguing" pretty said gesturing with her hand...while Cindy was carefully watching that light....." Leina don't you think it is ....like moving towards us!?" she shout looking pointing her figure..." yeah..." said
Thelei..." oh no....not again...I will die for sure this time" Chatnashrie said in panick " don't panick as long as it don't touches us we will be fine its something like electric....I think its the complete *shut down* I am sure the portal is their...we need to hurry before the electric line grow.....follow me closely..its dangerous don't get shocked" after saying that Leina rush towards the sparking zone, the girl in the back were not willing to move further..." I am scared..." cried Chetnashrie and Albina...Shashmita told her it was gonna be okey and to move quickly...." just think of it as a video game...like dozing and all that stuff we need to hurry or their will be to manny for us latter..." " but I can't do that" said Albina.....Leina

Leina shout as the sound of cracking and crashing was quite loud...they turn to see that the way they just pass was filled with the electric line jumping in the air and reaching out like hands they became pale just by looking at it thinking what could have happen if they were late even by little they could have been burn to ash..." get inside its dangerous out here we need to get inside the portal..hurry after you guys!" Leina again scream, everything was too shocking to be live their own eye but they don't have time for that..." Leina are you sure this is not dangerous I think the moment I touch I will die.."
