Episode 2: Mystery Light

The sky becomes white, there's no cloud in sight, just white light...Everyone was stunned and awed at the same time.Ash and her mom walked outside to see what happened outside.

Suddenly Ash's head hurts, It hurts so much as someone is knocking her head with some hard metal bat."Ouch...Ouch.."Ash screams in pain. Her mom looks worried. "Ash! What's wrong?Ash! Look at mom!" "AHHHHHH....It hurts!" Ash's mom is looking for help."Babe..Help me! There's something wrong with Ash".Her mom called her father Mr Danny.

"Wait, wait, I call an ambulance." Then suddenly her mom, father and other guests collapsed suddenly. Ash's eyes are still open slightly to see everything that happens in front of her. "Mom...Dad.." Ash called her parents'name slowly as she began to lose her consciousness.

Ash opens her eyes slowly..."Mom?" Ash saw her mom Ms Elaine sitting beside her seem sleepy."Ash?you awake?" "What happened mom?you ok?is everyone ok?". "Yes Ash, everyone is ok..You okay?". "My head hurts a little.""Your head hurts?wait mom takes pills painkiller for you. wait a while".Ms Elaine opyen drawer to take some painkiller pills for Ash."Ash..."."Yes mom?". "Do you just feel hurt in your head only?other places?"."Other places?" Ash asking confusedly..."No no,only my head"."Oh...ok what a relief...since you are awake, do you want some food?mom cooks some porridge for you." "Sure, I'm feeling so hungry too cause I'm not eating yet".The barbeque party was delayed due to the mystery event.

[Back to real time]

"Actually..."Ash is waiting for the Belle story. "Actually what Belle?don't keep me hanging like that.""Actually..."

"Ouchh..." Ash screamed painfully..there someone stumbled on her shoulder. "Watch where you are going sir!" Ash raised her voice to the person who hit her. "Oppss, sorry I didn't notice you there."Ash looks at her front to see there's a group of boys.'Huh! You guys?' Speak Ash inside her head. The one that hit Ash shoulder is none other than the popular boy group of the school. The HS Boys...The handsome boys...for Ash they are not HandSome boys..but more to The HideouS Boys...Their behaviour was so bad and immature even though their faces were more mature. As people said...Don't judge a book by its cover. It's really suitable for those boys.In that group there are 3 members, (Freddy,Gen,Henry), all of them are from wealthy families. Don't know why they school here. As far as Ash knows, it is because of their parent business that all of them school here. Even though it's a rural area, that place is still in development.

"Don't you see me?" Ash angrily asked the boys."See you?"Henry looking left and right. "Bro, did you see anyone here?" "Nope." Reply Freddy and Gen."Hahahahahahaha" Three of them laugh frantically." I guess you are too short miss...I didn't see you at all"."Hahahahaha..." All of them were laughing then walking away from Ash and Belle. 'Bastard!' Ash speaks in her head. "What? I'm 167cm...he called me short?I know his giant.Like 187cm something?But did he lose his eyes?or his eyes at the back of his head?didn't see what was in front?" Ash muttering with angry faces next to Belle. "Am I right Belle?" "Yes,yes, just let them be Ash. Let's go to our classroom.

As soon as they arrive at their class, Ash and Belle start cleaning their classroom.They swipe the floor, clean the windows, wipe the whiteboard, arrange the chairs and table. Then Ash starts to remember.."Belle, just now you want to say something to me right?on our way here?" "Oh that?yes, actually I want to ask, Is there something abnormal happening after the white light appears?

"Abnormal?hurrmm as I remember my head hurt so badly, then I start to faint. I also remember that my mom,dad and other guests collapsed at the same time." "Oh...I see.. that's all?". "Yeah.Thats what happened.Anything happened to you Belle?." "Huh?What?Me?Same..same..we all collapsed...Hehe". Belle answered Ash question then smiled awkwardly." I see...then all ok right?seems like nothing bad happens yet" Ash smiles at Belle." Yeah nothing bad happens" Smile Belle back.

While Ash looking at the outside windows, Belle looking at Ash back..her face seems confused.What Ash didn't know that Belle had gained superpower since the incident. Belle eyes can see what other eyes cannot see.She can see words at someone back, not some random word. As far as what she already saw, her mom wrote 'Promotion in 2 days'. Her dad wrote 'Outstation 1 day'. Her brother's 'Dating in 3 days'. So as Belle confirmed all info was correct, she knows all her family activities are aligned with the word writing at their back. For some reason Ash back wrote something that she cannot understand. 'Not yet..' 'What is that supposed to mean?' wonder Belle in her head. I thought Ash faced something similar with me? but to her surprise Ash doesn't have any superpower like her do. So right now Belle keeps it secret from Ash and she keeps gathering information to understand more of the situation.

"Belle!Belle!" "Yeah?what?" "What are you staring at? You look so lost.." "Me?haha nothing." Then their classmate walked one by one into the classroom. Belle and Ash both go back to their seats. Ash feels something wrong with Belle but she just ignores it cause Belle hasn't said anything to her yet. So she doesn't want to burden her friend, let her be ready to spill it all, then Ash will be by her side to hear.

"Ok classes, sit down." Mr Irish walking inside the classroom with someone.
