"Kids, hurry up! Story time!"
"Come on, It's story time lina."
"Okay now let's count okay?"
"Ron, One."
"Lina, Two."
"Zin, Three."
"Wei, Four."
"Mei, Five hihihi."
"Gelo, Six!"
"Okay, we're going to sit at the floor okay?"
"Yepyep story time yeheyyyy!"
"Quiet down Mei tsk." Ron complained.
"Okay okay no need to fight, now the title for tonight is....Midnight Child."
"Wow! It is like a powerful character?" Gelo asked.
"No, It's a love story right Mr. Zax?" Lina asked while looking up to me.
Aww they are so precious and cute.
Hope they'll like this story.
"No, It is about the six Children who wander around at midnight."
"Then why the title called midnight child and not Midnight children?" Zin asked. The girl who is so serious and very intimidating person among them.
"Very good Zin, what a good question."
"Yeah why 6 children and not 12? It's midnight so it's 12 o'clock right?" Wei asked. The one who is so very opposite of her twin sister, mei who is so loud and always smiling.
Wei is kinda giving me a serious vibe too like Zin.
While Gelo and Mei is so very loud and cheerful.
And Lina is the one who is very caring for others while Ron is the one who is like a Leader and acting like the older brother who will always guide his siblings.
"There are only 6 of them because the other six are always wandering around daylight." I Explained.
"And the title is called midnight child and not midnight children is because of their name."
"What's their name Mr. Zax?" Ron asked.
"For the midnight child, Their name is, Twelve, One, Two, Three, Four and Five."
"Whoaaa numbers."
"Cool, I want a name like that too Mr. Zax!" Gelo shouted while facing at Ron.
"Shut up, your breath stinks."
"Now now, come on, I'm going to start the story already okay."
"Once upon a time the six children wanders around the city and stealing food aroung the city."
*Somewhere in the city, Nighttime.*
"Twelve is their leader and the most brave and most powerful among them."
Twelve's POV
"One and two, the 2 of you will guard this Food we bought."
"Three, four, and five, y'all three will come to me and will steal food around the cities."
"Yes sir twelve!"
"We must steal food so that we can survive during the day time, don't give up and always find a way to solve your problems!" I shout at them before going to work.
Well, It's not like we have a choice to pick with.
We are awake at night time and asleep at daytime while our body automatically eat all the food we gather so that we can survive the heat at daytime.
Even though there's snow here, we still feel the heat coming from the sun. Those Daylight Children! Always picking at us huh.
If I saw any of you 6 daylight children, I'm going to punish that person by feeling the coldness when the night time Is on.
"Sir twelve sir twelve!"
"What? Why three?"
"We, we stole a lot of food but the food we stole were stolen by the daylight children!"
"What?!" I shouted at him. "Hold this food and give them to one and two and the three of you will guard those."
"But what about you?"
"I'm going to steal back what ours."
"Yes sir, Keepsafe sir goodbye sir." He left after saying those words.
Shit! 30mins left before The clock turn to 6am.
"Four, Five! Come at once!"
"Why sir?"
"I'm here sir."
"Come with me, we have to get our job done to survive later."
*At daylight children base*
SIX POV
"HAHAHA, To think that the coldness of the nightimr are not affecting us in a bad way but in a good way by keeping us calm and cool."
"Sir six, Sir six!"
"What?! Can't you see I'm celebrating our victory here after we succesfully stole the food they gather?!"
"Yes sir, I'm sorry sir but Seven and Eight are missing."
"What?!"
"Yes sir."
"Then what are you waiting for you nincompoop?! Find them!"
What a lucky day, so you made a move already hah Twelve.
TWELVE'S POV
"Ahm sir twelve?"
"Why four?" I asked.
"Is this gonna work? By trading and not fighting?"
"Ofcourse! Fighting is not the solution for our problems, we need to talk to six so that there will be no war will start."
I walked to seven and eight who is now blindfolded and their hands were tied.
"You will never defeat us you evils!" Seven shout.
"Stop that, I'm just going to bring back what ours and then I will free you."
"Sir twelve! They're here already!"
"Oh hi Twelve long time no see, *wooosh* so windy."
"Give back what you stole."
"What did I stole?"
"Don't lie to us Six or else you know what's going to happen if you don't give us what ours."
"So what will happen? I'm curious about that." He slowly walk to me.
"Stop walking!"
"Oh, So what will happen? Twelve?"
"War."
"Oh war, but I'm ready for it, are you ready for it twelve or are you scared?"
"I'm not scared of it."
"Then can you? Declare a war right now? Daylight vs Midnight, What a war right?"
"Don't do this Six, we got seven and eight here." Please stop this. I don't want to start a war with you.
Little Brother...
"Oh, So what?"
"But sir six." His ally enter the conversation.
"I'm talking, Nine, I'm still talking."
"Sorry sir."
Six turn to me and run to me.
"TWELVE!!"
I run to him too while preparing myself.
"SIX!!"
Just when I'm about to kick him, he... He...
hug me.
"Please come back to us, I miss you." He whisper to me while hugging me tight.
A tight hug. What a relieve.
But...
"No, I'm sorry so please stop this and I'm not going back, they need me."
"So your friends are more important than me? Your brother, your family."
"I'm sorry, they are a family to me too but you knoe if I come back, things will get worse. So please stop this because that's what our parents wants, to start a war against each other you know that right?"
"Okay I understand, I will not give up to find a way to cure us."
"Okay so please give back our food please and we will give seven and eight to you."
"Okay, you knoe that I did that just to meet you right?"
"Yeah, And please don't do this again, It's dangerous." I warn him and he took out the food.
"Okay? here's your food."
"Okay, now stop acting seven and eight, we knoe that you two can escape."
"Fine fine, you two brothers are always doing this to us tsk." Eight complained.
We laughed it off and then say goodbye to each other already.
*At the midnight base*
"How's the meet up sir twelve?" One asked.
"A wonderful night. An amazing meetup, you guys the best!" I shouted at them and hug them tightly.
"Now let's gather all the food. Oh look there's some chocolate six left for us."
"Wonderful, now we can sleep peacefully."
"THE END."
"What?! That's all?!" Mei exclaimed.
"Tss, shut up mei, there's a lesson behind it tsk."
"Good ron. Now what's the lesson kid?"
"Never give up and your loved ones will always find a way no matter how hard it is just to see you."
"Very good kids, now it's time to sleep okayy?"
"Aawwww, but--"
"No buts gelo, come on, before granny sees you awake."
"Fine but tell us a 2 story tomorrow okay?" mei asked.
"Okay."
"Promise?" Gelo asked.
"Promise." I said, "Come on goodnight my babies."
"Goodnight Mr.Zax." They said before giving me a kiss on a cheek and turn off the light.
