ACADEMY OF IMMORTALS - CHAPTER 49
★★★
(AT THE NICK OF TIME)
★
“No he can’t die” Gold said in tears
“I am sorry he is dead”
“Noooo!!” Blue said going down on his knees
Everyone present there is at the point of crying, the scene is too emotional and sad
“No, he can’t die, he can’t die”
Elizabeth muttered under her breath she took some steps back and rushed out, she didn’t want anyone to see her tears, she took to her heels and ran out of the academy in bitter tears, her parents were ki||ed because of her now Dreams is dying because of her, she is a real curse
“This is so hard to believe” Rhonda and Sasha said at a time
The physician made to covered Dreams with the white cloth when Jessica barged into the room
” I got the antidote, am I late?” She said panting heavily
Everyone turned to her immediately, when they saw the antidote in her hand their sadness reduced a little, at least there is hope
“Pour it in his mouth quickly” The physician said
Jessica quickly opened the cover and opened Dreams dry patched mouth and poured the content in his mouth
Everyone watched for what will happen next, soon his body started transforming to it normal self, his dry lips started coming back
His skin started slowly coming back
The physician felt his pulse and heart beat
He stood up and smiled
“It work” He said
The sad look on everyone face turned into a big smile
“Just in the nick of time” Avril said
“Jessica”
Everyone took turn to hug her, she stood with smiles as he survived
“You didn’t get hurt or injured right?” Terri asked
” No I am definitely fine, though it was not easy” Jessica replied
“Thank you for saving him” Genova said
” It’s my pleasure my prince” Jessica said
” Is that necessary I prefer being called by name”
” When will he wake up?” Rhonda asked
“Today or maybe tomorrow, it depends on how quick he heals” The physician replied
” Today is a day to smile”

Elizabeth walked through the woods absent minded blaming herself for the death of her parents and Dreams
“I ki||ed them, I caused their death, I h@?? myself, I shouldn’t have signed a deal with the demons, no wonder they were casted out of the pure realm, I think it’s better I die” Elizabeth said and summoned her sword
“I deserve to die, I couldn’t risk my life for the guy my heart beat for, I don’t deserve his love, maybe when I die will not have to live with this guilt, Dad, mum, little brother and Dreams I am sorry” She said with tears flooding out of her eyes
She raised the sword to stabbed herself in the stomach
” Do you think ki||ing yourself is the solution?” A voice asked
Elizabeth quickly turned to the direction to see Xeira standing there
” Who are you and how did you get here?” She asked still holding the sword
” Committing suicide is not the solution, your parents death was something beyond you, you never wanted to signed up for the deal but you were forced to, you only wanted to save your family, you allow your dark side to take over you, that’s your only mistake, I didn’t not blame you for your family death, this is not the end, you can’t ki|| yourself, fate designed everything, fight your dark side and overcome it, you need to start being yourself and mind you, you have to be careful from now on cos the other demons won’t stop at nothing but to seek for your blood” Xeira said and vanished immediately
Elizabeth stood reluctantly for some minutes before taking her sword down
” Maybe she is right”

Jessica entered her room after going to the master’s chambers
She pulled down her clothes and went into the bathroom
She bathed herself and walked out heading to her closet
She stood before the closet and then walked to the mirror
She checked her naked body in the mirror, she sighed as she saw no wound or bruises on her body
She started seeing the scenes in the forest of death playing in her head
The hot chase she was given by the giant one eye demon
“Sadly he won’t be seeing again” Jessica said and laughed remembering how he stabbed his other eye completely blinding him
She got dressed and came out at the same time with Elizabeth
Theirs eyes met and both of them looked at each other for long
“You’re back?” Elizabeth asked
“Yes with the antidote” She replied
“Did it work on him?”
“Sure, see you later” Jessica replied and walked away
Elizabeth found a smile appearing on her face, she held her chest and sighed heavily, breathing in and out
****
“Hey Scarlett” Gold called after her
She turned back and smiled
“Master” She bowed
“Stop it” He said
“You’re my trainer so I should be calling you master” She said pouted and Gold felt something move within himself
“You’re smiling today”
“My best friend is okay, I think there’s no need for keeping a sad face” He replied
“You’re right, I really appreciate Jessica and my love for her increased” She said
“Can you have a drink with me?” He asked now staring directly at her face
“I am sorry I can’t maybe some other time, I want to see Genova now” She replied
“Okay next time” He forced a smile
Scarlett smiled and walked away
Gold folded his fist
“Genova” He called silently
****
“You’re here?” Sasha asked sitting beside Terri on the bench
He turned to her and before she could talk he kissed her
“Terri” She smiled
“You’re glowing in beauty like the sun rays” He said
” Really?” She said blushing
He cupped her cheeks and placed a kiss on her lips, Sasha melted in to the kiss, she deepened the kiss and they started kissing
” Hey kissers” Blue said getting their attention, they quickly broke the kiss and Sasha look away shly
” Something is going on between you two and I don’t know?” Blue asked
” Why are you here?” Terri asked in his usual cold voice
” That cold voice won’t scare me away” He said and Terri chuckled
” See you later” Sasha said and rushed out
Blue shake his head and sat down
” I just wanted to talk to you but are you two dating?” He asked
” But you’re kissing unbelievable” He gasped
” Let’s talk about something else” He said avoiding the question
****
” Nova” Scarlett called raising her head up from his chest
She is hugging him
” Hmmm” He replied
” Why are you so cute?” She asked
” Why are you too cute?” He asked back
” I am happy Dreams survived” Scarlett said
” I don’t know what would have happen if he died, I like that guy so much” He replied
Scarlett look at Genova and pouted her lips closing her eyes, after a second she opened it and frown
“I pouted my lips and you couldn’t kiss me” She said
“Oh! sorry I didn’t see it” He replied
Scarlett pouted her lips again and he captured her lips
MIDNIGHT**
Jessica came out of her room and began walking to the treatment room, she got there and opened the door entering inside
She looked at Dreams laying on the bed
She walked to the bed and sat on it, she looked at his face which has returned to it normal form
She smiled at his handsomeness despite his unconscious condition he is still looking dashing
She took his palm into her own and began caressing it while looking at his face at the same time
“Dreams, p@zzy king, the ladies are missing you, try and wake up” She said
“I don’t know how but suddenly my heart start beating for you, I h@?? playboys with my life but I can’t h@?? you no matter how hard I tried, wake up I miss you, I miss your disturbance, I miss your flirting tactics everyone is waiting for you” She said and bend towards his head kissing his forehead
She stayed there for almost an hour before standing up, she kissed his back palm and made to go
” Jessie” His weak voice came up and she quickly turned
His eyes was partially open, she squatted down beside him
” Jessie” He called again smiling
“You’re alive, you’re awake, I am so happy, thank you for being alive” She said excitedly taking his hand
He smiled faintly
