MEILIN’S REBORN (Battle Of The Heart And Throne)

Nevaeh bit her lips hard and immediately ran inside the building.

“Anna are you okay? Hurry up and come out” she yelled but Gianna didn’t reply, she was too busy staring at everywhere in delight.

The place was better than what the rumors had been describing. It doesn’t look abandoned or old, instead it looks like a beautiful paradise.

Nevaeh was also lost staring at the place.

Everywhere was covered with different kinds of flowers that made the place smell nice.

There was a beautiful waterfall, deep ocean and different colored butterflies flying around.

It was late in the night already but the place was covered with some blue shining lights and some fireflies flying around out.

A huge smile appeared on Gianna’s face as she stared at the place.

“Doesn’t look like a forbidden place does it?” She asked and Nevaeh blinked.

“It looks so beautiful and according to my imaginations, it looks like the place where Xia Meilin usually does her sword training,” she added.

“Xia Meilin?” Nevaeh asked.

“Hmm, Xia Meilin from that supernatural novel I was reading” she replied and Nevaeh nodded.

They continued looking everywhere in silence till Nevaeh suddenly thought of something.

“Anna” she called and Gianna looked at her.

“The rain, did it stop?” She asked, looking up because the moment she entered she didn’t feel any raindrops on her body anymore.

“I guess so,” Gianna smiled and moved closer to her.

She placed her hands on her shoulders and smiled.

“Don’t you think people are wicked, they made up a fake rumor so that we can’t follow them and enjoy their garden” she said, looking around.

“I admit that the place is really beautiful but I’d appreciate it if we leave right now” Nevaeh replied and pulled on Gianna but Gianna didn’t bulge.

“Leave??, You must be out of your mind” Gianna replied.

“If there’s anyone out of their mind then it’s you. Anna we are college students and it’s super late, we are supposed to be sleeping and getting ready for our classes tomorrow but look at where we are!?” Nevaeh almost yelled.

“So??, Not like we are gonna stay here overnight so chill out” Gianna rolled her eyes.

“Why are you talking like this Anna, what has gotten over you let’s leave now!!” Nevaeh yelled.

“Stop yelling at me!!” Gianna snapped back and crossed her arms.

“You can leave but I will stay,” she added.

Nevaeh stared at her like she didn’t believe what she had just heard.

Did Gianna just talk to her that way when she was just worried about her.

“Fine” she nodded as she stared at her.

“Stay here, in fact you can even sleep here. Spend the night here I don’t care, I’m leaving” she added with a scoff.

Gianna scoffed too and Nevaeh turned around and began leaving.

She got to the gate and tried opening it but it wouldn’t open.

“Why won’t it open?” She creased her brows, still trying harder.

Gianna who was watching her from shook her head and began going deeper into the place.

She took a flower and inhaled the fresh scent then smiled widely.

Suddenly the paper that she was chasing suddenly flew to her making sure that she saw it.

When she saw it, she tried catching it but it flew away making her run after it again.

The paper kept flying deeper into the place and she kept on chasing after it.

It felt like she was being brainwashed, like she didn’t know what she was doing.

The paper entered a cave and she went in too, still chasing after it till it stopped at the front of something.

Gianna smiled and walked up to the paper.

“There you are” she smiled and picked it up then dusted it but just as she was about to read it, her eyes caught something lying in front of her.

It was… It looked like a dragon or something… She’s not even sure.

The paper slowly fell from her hands and she moved closer to it.

Black dragon, black scales, long ears, strong bony wings, wide mouth and arrow pointed tail.

It looks just like that strange wild pet, the one she read about in her book.

In the book it was a wide dangerous pet that kept on flying around and burning down houses, markets, schools, palaces for an unknown reason. Because of this everyone had to start protecting their palace, no one could fight against it but Xia Meilin decided to go for it.

She went with the angels and there was a strong war between them, Xia Meilin had battled with that dragon even though she got severely injured, she never gave up.

Together she worked hand in hand with the angels, they finally captured the dragon and they sent it to a forbidden place on Earth.

It was said in that book that the dragon hasn’t eaten for thousands of years now, it feeds on the heart and blood of anything and….

Gianna shook her head and touched her chest immediately.

“There’s no way it’s real, that was just a book the book can’t be real” she muttered to herself then walked closer to the sleeping dragon.

“This isn’t real too, dragons, dinosaurs and all those giant creatures died millions of years ago so they can’t hear now, what is this?,” she said and moved closer to it.

The moment she brought her hands to touch it, it opened its wide blue eyes and she shifted back.

“OMG, it’s alive and real!!” She shouted in her mind, breathing heavily.

The dragon slowly looked at her, when their eyes met it turned angry and flew up above the sky.

Gianna couldn’t stand anymore so she fell. The dragon looks alot like Zachary’s tattoo, she couldn’t help but wonder about that.

The dragon screamed and spat out a huge fire and Gianna immediately stood up.

The dragon faced her and spat out another fire but she dodged it.

“OMG it’s real, I’m not safe!!!” She screamed and began running while the dragon chased after her.

***

Nevaeh was still trying to open the gate when she began hearing some faint noises.

She turned back only to meet Gianna running then there was a fire at her back.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“Anna?” She called.

“Start running Nevaeh!!” Gianna yelled and that’s when Nevaeh saw a huge dragon at Gianna’s back.

“What’s that?” She asked fearfully.

“Don’t ask me to run!!” Gianna shouted and Nevaeh began running too.

The dragon spat out fire and they both dodged it.

It flew to them and moved it’s long arrow pointed at them but the tail hit the ground beside them and it cracked.

Nevaeh and Gianna screamed and started running from another direction.

The dragon spat out another fire and they dodged, they finally got to a huge stone and hid behind it.

They began catching their breaths.

“What was that?” Nevaeh asked fearfully.

“A dragon,” Gianna replied, still panting heavily.

“I told you Anna, I warned you but you didn’t listen now how do we get out of this huh?” Nevaeh asked, crying already.

“Don’t cry it might still calm down” Gianna rubbed her shoulders but she pushed her hands off.

The dragon sound was heard and the girls looked at themselves immediately.

They both stood up and continued running. The dragon turned and used its tail to hit the stone, breaking it into pieces.

“I’m sorry Nevaeh I’ve endangered our lives” Gianna screamed while running.

“Sorry can’t fix anything, isn’t this what you wanted!??,” Nevaeh shouted back.

“I’m really sorry, I didn’t know what came over me” she cried.

“I think I was possessed by that book, I really didn’t know what got over me but you know I’d never talk to you the way I did earlier right?” Gianna added, still crying.
