Joon-ho grabs me harshly by the collar of my shirt…. He takes a deep breath in… his crimson eyes glaring at me with suspicion…
I try not to panic….
Yet…
My sky blue eyes widen…. My pupils shrinking and darting around…
"I will repeat one last time—" Joon-ho groans in annoyance sensing my hesitation and fear "how did you open a personal aura dimension?" He lets go of me making me stumble back slightly onto the hard healing chamber bed…
Marcy tries to interfere and help me… but Duke Kota stops her before she could even attempt aiding me…
"I just learnt it based on the principle of aura sound barriers…" I lie trying to make up a believable story…
"You are lying…" Duke Kota laughs coldly…
"Just because I gave you what you didn't want… doesn't mean I lied…" I defend myself placing my hand on my chest…
"No… you are lying… because sound barriers and personal aura dimensions have opposite principles…" Joon-ho chuckles mockingly…
I frown…
How can I get out of this without spilling the real tea…?
As my thoughts consumed me…
An explosion could be heard nearby…
Everyones attention trailed away from me and to the looming threat ahead…
I got up from the hard healing chamber bed…
My eyes wide and alarmed….
How can THE MIDDLE be attacked…?
It's one of the safest places in the merged realms….
Suddenly shouting boomed from the hallway… some were yells of fear and sorrow… while others were barks of command and authority…
At that moment we all realised what those attackers are after…
"The golden kid must be here…" someone from behind the door said to his companion…
I hurriedly went to Philip who was sitting down on a hard chair…
"Hide…" I whisper quietly to the kid he looks up at me with a confused expression…
"What's all this about?" Duke Kota questions with a tilt of his head…
"She must know something…" Joon-ho groans as he grabs his sword…
The men from the hallway kicked the door down… making it fall with a heavy thud…
"Nobody told us the trouble maker and the elven duke were with the golden child…" one of the masked men shouts angrily…
"Just grab the kid…" says the other one as he walks past Joon-ho with confidence…
Joon-ho glares at the masked guy… he grabs the poor guy and shoves him onto the floor harshly…
"How dare you ignore me!" Joon-ho whispers dangerously as he steps on the masked man's back with his boot…
"Joon-ho stop your ego… and help the people who are in danger!" I yell at the stubborn main character of my book…
"I still have some business with you… goody two shoes…" Joon-ho smirks at me as he continues torturing the masked guy…
I grab my rusty magic infused pipe with a loud sigh…
The other men come closer ignoring their struggling accomplice…
"Where's the kid?" The leader of the masked men approaches me…
"I don't know…" I smirk as I prepare my fighting stance luckily I am not wearing that stupid daisy dress…
In a shot….
Another person appears…
It's Martha the snail lady…
Who scanned Philip…
Wait…
So my gut feeling is right…
They are actually after Philip because of that idiot slimy woman…
"I have been watching you… miss know it all… you treat that child like a little brother…" she laughs making a sound of two gooey objects interacting…
"And he is always with you…" she adds confidently…
"I am not handing him over…" I glare fury spilling out of my eyes like a waterfall…
"Then be it…" the masked men whisper in unity…
They charge at me… Kota… and Joon-ho…
I start bashing heads and limbs using my rusty pipe… me breathless for I already used much aura and energy when I opened the personal aura dimension….
Joon-ho just slashes the men with his long sword…
While Duke Kota uses elven spirit magic to make the men float high up and then he drop them mercilessly onto the floor…
The peaceful healing chamber became a battle field within seconds…
As we fought…
Marcy sneaked out and started helping the injured for the explosion hurt many…
As we were all distracted Philip hid under the desk him trembling slightly…
Because he wanted to help and he knew all this fighting is the result of the need of those masked men to kidnap him to who knows where….
Suddenly Philip felt a slimy octopus tentacle grab his foot it was Martha…
"Got him…" Martha announced happily…
"Ahhh…. Let… go… of… me…!" Philip screamed in terror…
"Philip!" My eyes widen in horror I run quickly towards him…
A crimson portal tears through reality…
Making us all stumble back almost tripping on our own feet…
Martha holding Philip by his foot using her tentacles steps into the red gate…
I follow them desperately….
As I enter it…
The world wraps around me…
Turning into dark nothingness…
I jolt up…
My blue eyes flutter open slowly…
I take in my new surroundings…
The blood red sky…
The dead trees…
The agonising dark cliffs and mountains…
Without a doubt…
I landed into the…
Abyss….
I am not sure why Philip was taken here….
But…
It must relate to something I wrote…
I did mention Philip was a part of a Abyss terrorist group…
Yet…
This is too early…
He is 10 years old right now…
Philip wasn't with Joon-ho until later of the story…
Did I change the plot too much…?
I hope not…
