My Way To You - Chapter 371

“So tell me what am I supposed to do? Hmm?! Who am I supposed to trust? Should I only believe in myself or live like my mother? Locked away and hidden from the world? I’m sorry Breeze but if you didn’t get the memo I am not my mother. I don’t want to be like her, actually I can never be like her, all I need to do is find a way to live a normal life and be done with this nonsense.” Ariana said as she slapped Breeze’s hand away from her chin.

“You? A normal life? Don’t make me laugh! How naive can you really be?!” Breeze shouted. “Why are you acting like this?” Ariana asked as her eyes started to water.

“You’e funny! Did you think I couldn’t get mad? Or upset? That I’m just your carefree guy friend or did you forget that little incident from before? You which one I’m talking about. The time I tried to kill you?” Breeze said with a mocking smirk. “That wasn’t you.” Ariana rebutted. “My hands and my master’s wish. I did what I was told and you forgave me without hesitation. How stupid can you be?” Breeze asked with a dark laugh.

“Forgiveness has always been my strong point.” Ariana said courtly. “No, it is a weakness, along with that bleeding heart of yours. One day it will be your downfall.” Breeze said as he pushed Ariana against the wall and pinned her back.

Ariana kept glaring at Breeze and dared him with her eyes to keep pushing her. Breeze sighed as he brought his hand to the bridge of his nose and massaged it. “You’re impossibe.” He said. Ariana felt a wave of relief wash over her and let he guard down. She was too wound up because of Waldemar and Ottis. “Sorry.” Ariana said sheepishly.

Breeze moved his hand from his face and laid it on top of Ariana’s head. “You… you are getting too emotional these days. You’re not thinking well and now are just telling everyone your secrets. You really need to keep your mouth closed, especially these days. How are we supposed to keep you safe? You’re making things so difficult…. Ariana, the church will be coming soon.” Breeze said as he looked at Ariana pitifully.

“When?” Ariana asked as her body tensed up. “They’re coming during the winter holiday in order to make things a little less obvious… So please lay low for now.” Breeze pleaded as he rubbed Ariana’s head.

“I will but you said soon. They are actually coming later, why?” Ariana asked. “The attack in the City had delayed their visit. Well, no the ones who are knowledgeable are delayed. Now they are sending some trainees to make a show of coming and convince the students that they saw wrong. Once everything settles the trainees will leave. Then the moment we enter December the real members will make their appearance. So no one is allowed to go back home for the holdiays.” Breeze explained.

“Breeze how do you know this?” Ariana asked in shock. “The Headmaster will be telling the students tomorrow at the emergency assembly.” Breeze replied with a sad smile. Ariana felt a cold chill run down her back and she quickly grabbed Breeze’s hand. “Did something happen to Edlyn?” Ariana asked in a hurray. “No. She’s fine, they’re all fine but the attack… You’ll find out tomorrow. Things are looking bad for us.” Breeze said as he pulled back his hand.

Ariana froze. She didn’t know what to do. “Go on. Kyrie is waiting for you.” Breeze said as he took a few steps back. “Breeze?” Ariana called out. Things were going to be getting worse she just knew it but she wanted to be lied too so she could hold onto a glimmer of hope. “Keep your mouth shut from now on.” Breeze said before he generated a gust of wind.

“Breeze!” Ariana called out again as she tried to fight against the wind but it was too late. Breeze left. ‘Are you okay?’ Vasu called out. “You’re awake!” Ariana said happily. ‘We had a boost of energy.’ Loralei chimed in cheerfully. “Thank goodness.” Ariana sighed. She then started to walk again. “I think I really screwed up this time.” Ariana muttered to hersellf.

‘No, I think this mght have been our fault.’ Aroha said with a heavy sigh. “Why? I’m the one who went out and opened my mouth to Waldemar. You guys did nothing wrong.” Ariana said as she furrowed her brows. “We with held information.” Aroha replied. Ariana froze. “I’m not forcing you to tell me your stories We can take our time.” Ariana said coolly.

‘No. We are running out of time. You were right that some of us are holding on to our wishes with the Goddess but at the same time I could have been more of a leader and pointed out that without you are wishes are useless. You are our last chance. If you die before you fulfill your role we will die along with you.’ Aroha stated matter-of-factly.

‘What are you talking aout Aroha? The Goddess can call another person and have this started all over again. Ariana can’t be the last one.’ Loralei said with a sightly trembling voice. ‘No. The Goddess has gotten weak. She can’t call anymore people. Evangeline helped the Goddess call Ariana by using the Taboo method. After Ariana passes away, we will die, the innocent will die and this world wil be left to the victors.’ Aroha explained.

Ariana ran trough the halls. She changed her direction and decided to go into the forest. She stumbled as she ran, her heart was racing and her breathing became erratic. ‘Where are you going?’ Rahul shouted but Ariana kept running. She desperately searched with her eyes as she ran for dear life. Until she found what she was looking for. The giant stone doors.

“Vasu what will happen if I use the doors?” Ariana asked in a panic as she tried to catch her breath. ‘What are you taking about? These are just some old ruins.’ Duko said as he appeared and started to sniff at the doors. ‘How old are these?’ Davita asked as she and the others appeared. “Vasu!” Ariana shouted.

Vasu turned to Ariana and gave her a weary smile. ‘Hell will be let lose and you will go home as Ariana.’ Vasu replied. ‘WHAT?!’ The Lumas shouted in unison. Ariana went silent as she dropped her gaze. ‘Vasu explain yourself! What did you mean hell will be let lose?!’ Aroha shouted butt Vasu kept his mouth shut.
