Hello Everyone. Here is another chapter. Happy reading and remember to vote 🙏

Morning light bathed the bustling city streets, painting the scene with a vibrant energy as citizens hurried along, immersed in their daily routines. The air hummed with the symphony of urban life, filled with the chatter of voices and the rhythmic cadence of footsteps.

Suddenly, the atmosphere shifted. Tension threaded through the wind as a creature materialized, its ominous presence casting a shadow over the once-bustling street. Gasps of alarm rippled through the crowd as they beheld the creature's sinister form, frozen in stunned silence.

With calculated precision, the creature unleashed its power, a beam of energy that struck its unsuspecting victims, rendering them motionless statues trapped in stone. Panic erupted as the chaos unfolded, a torrent of bodies scrambling to escape the creature's malevolent gaze.

Laughter, cold and merciless, echoed through the now-deserted street as the creature continued its onslaught, transforming more unfortunate souls into lifeless monuments until the thoroughfare resembled a silent graveyard.

Meanwhile, in the tranquility of Blade's home, she wrestled with her studies, her mind consumed by equations and formulas. As she completed the final step of a chemistry problem, she closed her textbooks with a heavy sigh, the weight of her thoughts evident in her furrowed brow.

"Darling."

Blade's aunt's voice, a comforting presence in the midst of her turmoil, broke the silence, accompanied by the clink of a plate of fruit being placed on the table. Blade turned to greet her aunt, her expression a mask of forced composure.

"Hi, aunty," Blade responded, her tone tinged with weariness.

Concern etched her aunt's features as she approached Blade, a maternal instinct driving her to inquire about her niece's well-being. "Are you okay, sweetheart? Ever since you got here, you've been a little down."

Blade offered a faint smile, attempting to assuage her aunt's worry. "I'm fine, aunty. Just a little stressed from studying."

Her aunt's frown deepened, her gentle touch soothing Blade's troubled thoughts. "Why don't you go out for a bit? Hang out with your friends, Vida, was it?"

Blade's response was swift, a reflexive defense against her aunt's assumption. "Aunty! I have other friends than Vida. There's Maddie and Xander and Chip and Clara. There is Glenn and...and...." Blade's voice trailed off, a hint of desperation seeping into her words as she grasped for reassurance.

Her aunt's response was a gentle yet steadfast affirmation, her unwavering presence a source of comfort amidst Blade's uncertainty. "And everything will be fine," she reiterated, her tone imbued with unwavering confidence. "I know leaving them will be hard, but everything will work out eventually. For them and for you."

Blade's troubled thoughts circled back to Glenn, a knot of worry tightening in her chest. "But Glenn..."

Her aunt's reply was swift, her conviction unwavering as she quelled Blade's apprehensions. "Will be fine." The assurance in her aunt's voice was palpable, dispelling any lingering doubts. "Everyone deals with loss in different ways. Even if you stayed here, you won't be able to change anything if he's not ready to move on himself."

Blade absorbed her aunt's words, a sense of resignation settling over her as she accepted the truth in her aunt's counsel. With a faint smile, she reached for the plate of fruit, a silent acknowledgment of her decision to heed her aunt's advice. "Right. I'll finish this, then go hang out with them."

As her aunt nodded in approval and exited the room, Blade was left alone with her thoughts, a glimmer of hope flickering amidst the shadows of uncertainty.
