Brihhhhhhhhhggg

Brihhhhhhhhhggg

Brihhhhhhhhhggg

A loud alarm sounded around the room as thick dark clouds sorrounded the room.

I was in a dream

Or not?

I stood up quickly my eyes struggling to stay awake,I raced towards Ryan.

"Ryan!!!"

"Ryan oh my God,wake up something is happening."Ryan stirred in her sleep as she murmured slowly.

"What the hell is y-"she was cut off by the alarm,this time around, everyone was struggling to stay awake.

The room filled with questions immediately.

"Are we going to die?"

Really?

"What the fuck is going on h-"we were cut off again but this time with the sounds of screams and the blood drain right out of my face.

Aubrey

I moved before I realized I was,and I placed my ear on the floor,it was hard to see where you wanted to go but it didn't stop me,the noise we getting louder and my fear of the unknown was getting stronger.

"Aubrey!? Aubrey!? Aubrey!?."I shouted but it felt like the room was sucking out my vocal cords as everything started to spin.
I couldn't help but think the worst,I wouldn't be able to live with myself if something should happen to my sister.

Suddenly the room quieted down,the screams reduced to sounds of nothing,the sounds of bodies falling filled the room.
I glanced back at Brittany in fear as she held on tight to Chloe.
While Grace held hands with Alexa, Ryan approached me with her hands towards me.

She was staring at me with a cautious look on her face and I wondered what put the look there until the first drop hit the floor.

My tears.

It kept on falling until she gathered me close to the soft comfort of her soft hands.

I sobbed loudly as she whispered"she's going to be okay."

I moved away from her hands as I raked my hand through my dirty blonde hair.

What's going to happen now

For all we know all the children have probably arrived at the Talent Keepers

"What about us?"Grace asked"are we also going to be taken?I know this Lucifer dude said we were going to be taken but it's starting to get crazy intense."

"I know and there's not even a way out of here,I mean where the fuck is the door?"Ryan shouted her tone of voice raised really high and I felt chills down my back.

Time for playing is over time to get things over with.
Except I was confused,what things exactly?I feared that if things were going this way then I need to be dropped in some kind of psychiatric hospital.

This drama was already getting too much,I was actually waiting for Mary or some kind of person to arrive with a script or something.

"Uhmmmm guys what is that?"Alexa spoke for the first time her pointy finger pointing to the ceiling as smoke came out from it.

"Everyone move to the back and try to hold your breath for as long as possible."Ryan said but I knew it wasn't going to work,if it doesn't work in movies or novels then how sure was I that it was going to work in real life.

Definitely 0000000000000000000001.000000000000% out of a 100%.

"Ryan I don't think that's going to work."Chloe said thick fear laced in her voice.

Before I could say anything, Grace's body fell with a loud thud sound.

Oh no,one down five more to go.

"Oh no."Alexa whispered

Everywhere was fast filling with whatever gas was in the room.

"What if we don't m-"Ryan's voice wavered as she held her head.

Oh no,we were totally screwed,if Ryan should go down then what was left of us.

This is bad

This is really bad

This is Definitely bad

Ryan's body fell criss cross from Grace and I felt so funny inside.

My tummy tickled as my head felt awfully heavy, something was happening to me but before I could shout out the sound of the rest of the bodies matched with my body also hitting the floor and everywhere blanked out.

=_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_=

The sound of the gentle crash of water hitting the surface of the land woke me up.

I held my hand to my head as I struggled to remember what happened,my vision still blurry as the colours all joined together forming a huge mess,I placed my hand on the ground with my eyes closed.

There was something soft under my hand like really soft,I felt a shock travel into me as a soft nip lightly socked on my finger.

Holy hell

My eyes snapped open in shock as a pair of dark brown eyes stared up at me.

My mouth water draped open as my gaze slid across the little baby drapes that held the little baby,his dark pink lips pulled back into a little smile as his black large curls sprawled all over his
head.

My head was pounding and I closed and re open my eyes to make sure I was perfectly awake.

How the hell did this baby get here?

Who even owns the baby?

I glanced around me to notice that I was surrounded by sleeping bodies of the girls?

I locked gazes with the baby again and I watched as he stretched his little arm in my direction,his lips quivered a little.

I couldn't help but pick him up,he was adorable and I don't have an idea were he came from,I made my ways towards the girls bodies.

I had a feeling we were closer to the Talent Keepers and I needed to wake the girls up so we could figure out where we were.

And I know who was the first on my list

Ryan

"Ryan!wake up."I hissed,I couldn't afford to shook her awake but a baby was currently in my hands and by the judge of it,he was close to be four months old.

She stirred as she slowly raised her head before standing up,I watched as she tried to open her eyes.

Been there
Done that

"Don't force it,after sometime your vision slowly clears."I said to her

She slowly nods her head."do you know where we are though,it smells like a beach."

"I have no idea where we are but it definitely is a beach."I reply, the baby was starting to get fidgety so he opened his mouth and belch?

"Is that a baby?"Ryan asked as her eyes slowly opened,she openly gaped at the baby who offered her a toothless grin.

The others were starting to wake up and I watched as they all stood up and struggled to open their eyes.

"How in the world did you get a baby though?"

"Is it yours?"

Ryan kept firing me with questions."no, he's not mine,I found by the edge of the beach.

"I think he was sold too."I finished and Ryan stared with a dumbfounded look on her face.

"Do you have an idea on how to get to the Talent Keepers ."Ryan asked.

By now the rest of the group was already up and awake.

And with a lot of questions.

They were all staring at me with a look of suspicion, it's not like I slept with a guy and then produced a baby with black curls right then on the beach.

"Do you mind if I hold him."Alexa asked and I stared at her with a pissed off look on my face .

"I told you, he's not mine."I almost shouted as I handed the baby to her.

She chuckled a little as the baby rejected her hand and folded straight into my chest.

"Are you sure about that."Brittany said"look at the way he's looking at you, like you were gone for a day or two."

There's no use,I couldn't find a way to make them believe me and the way the baby was staring at me,made me feel exposed in a maternal kind of way.

=_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_=

It was already late into the evening before we spotted it,a tiny light into the distance,it looked really far away as it stretched into the thick bushes.

"Uhmmmm guys."Ryan said"let's get moving,I think we are about to reach the Talent Keepers"
Even Ryan's hoarse voice couldn't contain her excitement,whatever it was we were going to meet in the Talent Keepers,we were in fact ready for it.

=_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==_==

We got to the bushes in little or more than an hour.

We approached a long brown trail of leaves facing a huge door,it felt like we were on our way to heaven,the door was stretched so long it almost reached the sky.

I could tell everyone was transfixed by this door, even the baby was quiet in admiration for this door.

We stared for about a minute before the door was slide open towards the sky and we were facing, probably the biggest place I have ever seen in my life.

The land stretched across untill it was facing this bushes,lights everywhere.

Nobody could talk,I felt like if I made a sound the big land would drown out my voice,if felt like I was in the middle of America and I had a feeling we weren't in California any more.

I looked on ahead as I stared on towards the path to ten houses,sorry mansion.

The houses stood magnificently and ridiculously high and highlighted with the colour black.

You could see the different acres of land dividing the buildings in what would take minutes to get to,I look beyond the houses and I saw another flicker of lights which exposed a large multi colored building written in front of it in bold words were Karaoke.

Besides the building another building stood erect in a very sharp white colour in front is written library.

There was up to fourteen buildings all in different colours,at the front of the buildings were large rose flowers cut together in form of a large T.

The sounds of footsteps made us all look towards the direction of the karaoke building, a short woman in dark scarf wrapped around her neck stood elegantly in front of us.

"Welcome,we have been expecting you."she said

"Let's get started."

Love you💓💓💓
