BEYOND PERFECT - CHAPTER 12
Luka : I know it might sound strange, but I think I’ve seen you guys when I was studying ancient myths.
Alice 🙁 looks around nervously) y-you-us you must be seeing things Luka :no I’m not. I know what I saw.
You guys are the last survivors of a lost species called nymphs.
Will: woah woah woah.
You’ve got a lot of nerves accusing us like that.
Luka : I’m sorry. But if you are nymphs. I’m giving you chance to redeem yourselves in front of the goddess of nature. I’m giving you chance to save almost half of humanity’s teenage population. If you guys change your minds. I stay on the east wing of the school. My dorm is E35
And with that Luka stood up, praying in his mind that his hunch will get him somewhere.
Will’s pov
I couldn’t believe it, we tried so much to hide who we were, but somehow this little kid apparently recognized us. I don’t know if this is bad or good news, but Alice is freaking out right now.
I’m sacred, Alice said, with tears in her eyes.
I held her in a tight hug.
It’s gonna be okay baby, maybe it’s not all that bad, maybe this is a chance for us to make things right.
But what if they try to make us atone for our ancestors sins.
No he won’t, he’s a good person. I can feel it. And if he’s not… I guess that’s our destiny then.
Luka’s pov
I couldn’t sleep that night, I kept in wondering if they would come or not.
What if my hunch was wrong? I had no other options but to keep hoping they would show up cause if they didn’t there’s no way for us to proceed our investigation. We only have theories, we need to get facts and evidence. At that moment there was a knock at my door and to my surprise it was them.
THEY CAME. I was so happy.
Luka : i’m so happy you guys came. So are you nymphs.
Will : yes. The last species of nymphs left.
Alice : you won’t hurt us, right?
Luka : of course not. I just want you guys to come to me before the beginning of lunch tomorrow, we have somewhere to be.
*The next day *
They came to me and I took them to the rendezvous point. I already told the other members about them.
Alive : h-hello
Maya : hey I’m Maya, and I’m guessing you’re Alice.
Welcome to the squad girl (hugs Alice tightly)
Max : woah woah woah.
Don’t you think you’re getting a little ahead of yourself Maya. They have to be accepted by major the members for them to stay and I for one am not to keen to the doll.
Alex : don’t be such a meani Max. Hey Alice, hey Will. I’m Alex team leader.
Will : first person to notice standing here.Thanks
Ella : I think we should get to know our member first
Sophie : I agree with Ella
Will : OK then, we’ll tell you the story of how we became the last nymphs in existence. A long long time ago, after the dinosaur period, humans were brought into existence. After a thousand years in human existence the first nymphs were created by mother nature. The humans accepted nymphs as a part of their community but nymphs saw themselves as superior because of their abilities.
So they started enslaving humans and harbouring h@?? towards them.
Humans cried out to mother nature, and she decided to do something these tryants. She sent a virus that only effected nymphs. She k!lled all the nymphs but spared us, because we were the youngest nymphs alive then and she couldn’t bear to destroy kids with no evil intentions but we had to promise her that we will take the side of humanity and never turn on them.
The day we turn on humanity is the day we’ll d!e. We both grew up together disguised as human kids, we fell for each other in the long run and now we are inseparable. Our powers are linked we get weaker when we are not happy with the other or angry at the other.
Luka : so let’s vote , it you want them to stay hands up
Sophie, Maya, Alex only Ella and Max didn’t
Alex : welcome to the team you too.
