Touya woke us too early that I didn’t had time to brush my hair so Scarlet let me a small mirror. My hair looked darker than usual cause we have entered into the winter season, I normally have a light brown color that Michael likes so much. One day he said it reminded him of a caramel and since then started to call me that way.
It was hard for me to refer as my dad while I was in this world as even if he looked like him the real one was in the london of the 21 century but then I told my self just like a said to Touya that no matter if my dad's body in this world was not real, his actitude was still the same so it was pointless to make difference regarding in which world I am.
I had heard stories about people having a Deja Vu but not one inside a book and all of this had been a torment if Touya had not came into my life. He makes me feel like I am living a new life even if I already passed twice the same things. However, from now it will not be this way as we are the ones creating the story. The book just give us a deadline and even was an awful one, I thank him for letting me forge my own destiny.
I wonder if my mom knew that we descended from a celt tribe and if she ever knew I had a special blood. I doubt it, doctors would have told her as babies blood are examinated when they are born. Could it be that they just find me ordinary when I really was not? Something similar to what happened when only I could read the book cover?
I was getting bored of seen the same road all the time so I started playing Pac- Man in my phone until Touya told us we had trouble. Three grey Mercedes Benz were blocking our way and two men with dark sunglasses and wearing a black suit and a gun. One was with long curly light brown hair and his partner had long blonde hair. It was hard to guess their age but I would say they were around forty years old.
—Touya, you are responsible for killing our comrades
Touya is about to get out of the car when Scarlet hold his arm begging him not to go but before he could reply a bullet broke the windshield.
—The next one goes to your head. If you don’t come here now!
—I am going—shouted Touya,
Before opening the door he looked at Scarlet and turn slightly his head to the right. As I watched him walk closer to them my heart was beating fast but I told my self that I must have faith in him.
—I didn’t kill them. The wave just turned the boat.
—That is not what the lightkeeper said. He saw you looking at the waves like waiting for something. I bet you knew when the big wave would come and turned the boat.
—If you want revenge, well here I am.
—Oh certainly we will but before that, there is something you must know. We know about the book, we went and ask a descendant of the celt tribe. The book needs a lot of energy to maintain Arya fake body in this world but because of that this world and their characters will dissapear.
—Who told you that?
—The lightkeeper is a descendant of the tribe. He doesn’t want his tribe dissapear so he asked for our help as Arya is speeding the events in this book vanishing everything around her. She must return to her world now.
—She cant, the book said only when Cosmo and Starlight made peace and we finish our company investigation—said Touya.
—We don’t need to wait for it. If we kill her now our world would be saved.
—Over my dead body.
—We have orders. So move or you are done.
—Okay, but first, may I say a last word?
—Go ahead.
—Please take care of my leopard.
Boom. The man shot Touya and he fell into the ground. I screamed but Scarlet told me to shut up and trust her.
The men walked toward us and opened the doors. The blonde guy pulled me roughtly and pointed a gun to my head.
— Now that you will kill her, can I have this beauty?
The man gently touched her chin but then Scarlet used her kness to kick him in the balls making the man scream. Then, she took a small gun from the size of a pea that she was hiding in her bra and shot the man.
—Let her go —says Scarlet holding the gun of his comrade.
—If you make one move she is dead. Who has the upperhand now?
—I just wanted to give you an easy death but seems men always wanted it the hard way.Do it now!
I heard a strong noise and then I see the grey car coming towards him. The man was trapped, wether Scarlet shoots him or the car driven by….Touya!
The man lets me go and start running to our car but Scarlet shot him before could opened the door.
—Efficient as ever, Scarlet.
Touya smiled at her proudly and they both exchange a deep glance make them look like lovers.
—I don’t get it, how did you knew Touya was not dead.
—He always carries a bulletproof jacket.
—But still there was no way you knew what his plan was.
—That was a coincidence, we found ourselves in a same situation once. Some men wanted to kidnapped me when we went on a date, of course by then he was not a bodyguard yet.
—After that, Anthony hire her a security services.
—excepts when he is with me. Daddy trust him so much.
—Arya, I hope you had learned a lesson today—Touya said—. Scarlet remained calm and brave. I expect you to be that kind of woman.
—I will.
Scarlet says that probably the lightkeeper will notify the celt tribe and we could have another ambush.
I studied there are many celts tribes with different names, if we discover which one he belongs to.We can visit another ones.
—Good idea, give me your phone. I will text Witterby.
—We need to get out of here, the police will come soon —suggest Scarlet.
—Our car is running out of fuel. We will take their but before we must do something.
Touya tells Scarlet to go to his car and take out a bottle of glue and I follow him to take out the platecard of his car. I asked him what was the plan and he said we will paste their plate number over his.
Scarlet came back with the glue and Touya ask her to throw the plate of his car into a small pond next to the road.
When we were ready Touya speed up to the port as we had originally plan.
—Are you aware this plate number trick will just by us some time?— asked Scarlet.
—And for now that is all we need.
We arrived at Holyhead Port located in Pembroke. The whole place was built over a pretty green area that gave him this perfect combination between a city and a country atmosphere making you feel if you didn’t know wether in what kind of both worlds you were standing on. But the most impressive thing was the water. It looked so turquoise that made me wanna swim even I may catch a cold, it was the Northwest after all.
Touya went to buy us some tickets but told us that they were sale off. Suddenly, someone beside me scream and I froze when I saw a ginger old woman without a hand. Everyone was looking at her when she was saying that her hand dissapeared like magic.
—I told you, Kate. God is mad with us—says an old man dressing like a priest.
— Look, it is her —a man was pointing at me—. Is the girl Cosmo posted on their social media, they say she came from another world and as long she is alive we will all dissapear because she is cursed.
People started whispering.
—That is impossible.
—But Cosmo had never leaked fake news and they always know the things before anyone else.
—We cant rely on what event to accused a poor girl —said a young woman carrying a baby in her back.
Scarlet said that we better get out of here soon so we headed to a quite place under the docks until people clear the place were they were selling tickets.
—They wanna get sure Arya dies by increasing their chances.
—Yeah, by using innocent people—replies Scarlet.
—Scarlet, you could dissapear too. Why you don’t wanna kill me too?
—Dont get me wrong, if I get to that point I will.
— Scarlet! —Touya was furious, his eyes were so scary
— I have lived all my life in this world, I wont be apart from my loved ones because some girl just came and ruin it all.
—It is not her fault.
—It is! I started writing that book and turned into a cursed thing. I just wanted a life were someone could love me and protect me.
Arya started crying and covered her face but then she continued saying after Mark broke up with her in the real world she wanted a man could be with her for ever and that at first she justify him for giving up on her but after knowing Touya in this world she learn from him that no man should quit on someone he loves. She added than even Touya who doesn’t love her he never abandon her and followed his duty as a bodyguard which is what Mark should have done. He should have offered to go with her to pick up the gym elements when the teacher sent her.
—Scarlet, she is trembling. Can you go and by her something hot?
— Okay.
Touya told Arya to look at her but she refused so he hug her and told her that she must not feel responsible for having dreams.
— Arya, your dreams made me exist in this world and I am grateful for it. Otherwise, I would have never met such a beautiful woman.
Toucha kissed her forehead.
—I don’t want you to dissapear—Arya said.
—I won't—he gave her one of his silver pearl—. This is my promise.
—I am back, take this tea.
Scarlet sat in the sand and point to a small whited- yellow striped cruce coming to the port. The orange tones of the sunset were reflecting in the waters.
Touya said that was our ride and we walked to the ticket point but I turned one second to look at the ocean to say goodbye to the land had always raised me.
Once all of this ends I will return to my world and will never be able to see Touya again and I am not ready to say goodbye.
Maybe my ancestors know a way so I can bring my real body here so I can leave by his side forever, even if he doesn’t love me. Just with seeing his face from time to time will be enough. I know I would miss my family but Touya even more.He was what I have been missing all my life and now that I have found him I can’t let him go. Also, if I return to my world Scarlet will conquer him and I can’t let that happened. He was created just for me.
