The Love From Vengeance

179 DETERMINATION

LUKE’S POV

I was still here in this building, searching for two little children I had no knowledge of I didn’t even know if they were actually in the building, but I couldn’t just give up now. If I was going to die here, then so be it. I’d die with the things established by my grandfather. It would even be better that way. But saving these children now was all that was on my mind.

Looking in different directions, I walled carefully, so I wouldn’t get toasted by this crap right here. I could even feel the heat of the dreadful fire, and dann, It was hot as hell. The people in hell m passing through a lot, no lie about that. This heat was so intense that I could melt someone in seconds. In minutes, actually, like a candle or something. I was just lucky to not have gotten hit by this flame. Right now, it was grace covering me.

1 paused for a moment, looking carefully to see if I could perhaps see any souls around here. Close to me, far from me all counted. But there was no one, so I needed to keep on moving

As I decided to get into action, there was this crap that fell right in front of me, covered with fire–an item, actually, probably a part of the building. But I was lucky that I didn’t come into contact with it. Who knew what I wouldn’t have become right now? Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

Yes, I was sweating like hell, and my breathing wasn’t normal. I kept on inhaling the smoke, and trust me, this was something I wasn’t relishing. But I got to live in the moment. I could never tell what would take place in the future, I just had to live up to it, predict whatever I wanted, and sometimes get a shocking result in the end. Yeah, what life had to give me.

I kept on with the search, not giving room for terror, not panicking, but standing boldly with optimistic thinking. I could get out of this one alive; I hoped that.

More noises, more falling things that could cause one to stumble–that would increase the fear. But I chose to stand firm, not sticking in my brain how the fire could casily turn one to ashes.

The search continued, looking everywhere carefully, until I heard the voices of two little children, a little bit far from me. They were screaming for help, and indeed, I knew they were the ones I was looking for. I fastened my pace, but I did that carefully, becoming really great with each step.

So yes, the voice was coming from somewhere up the stairs, which was almost burnt down. So I needed to be fast to walk back through these stairs before they burned down fully. I carefully walked through it, and the voices were now close to me.

“Someone help, please!” The voice of a little girl echoed right in my ears. But it sounded kind of familiar. I couldn’t just remember when, but I could tell that I had heard that voice before.

“Is anyone there? Please help!” She kept on hollering.

“Hold on, I’m coming. Just stay calm!” I vocalized loudly, taking some steps forward. “There’s no need to be scared!”

And even as I walked further, I still couldn’t see them. But I had a feeling I was getting close, and in any minute, I might get to where they were. I just hoped I would be able to make it.

“Please help!” A boy’s voice this time is also familiar. But I couldn’t stress my brain by thinking about where I had heard their voices before. Right now, I needed to be really careful. It seemed like the fire

was getting worse each minute.

“Don’t worry, the both of you! I’m almost there. I’m coming to rescue you guys!” I sounded off. I stepped on something immediately, and a huge fire blew right behind me, leaving me shocked to the point that I shifted back in a flash, moving like a lightning bolt.

I shook my head as I breathed out. “That was a close one,” I said softly to myself. The heat was much, and I was sweating like never before. For a moment, I thought I was going to be blown up. could call this a stunt, and if I get out of this place alive, I think I should get this written down.

“Help please!” The scream of the little girl got louder as I heard a thunderous sound produced by the fire. I was frightened for a moment. I needed to act fast now.

I quickly moved in that direction, transposing fast. I didn’t care if I was going to get burned. I took all those negative thoughts off my mind, as my movements were like those of the Flash. And finally, I spotted them, not too far from me. There was a huge fire separating us. Now I was thinking of how I could pass the fire so I could get to them. It was really terrifying, as I just wanted to give up at the moment. But what gain would it be?

And it was now that I knew why their voices sounded familiar. These were these two kids I had seen at the party–Ariel’s children. But what were they doing here? How did they end up at this location? Who was the heartless scumbag who placed these children here? Because I knew for a fact that they didn’t come to this place all by themselves. The person who broke in took them along. He must be an enemy of Ariel, and since this person had come to do this shit to my building, I could call the fool my

hater.

“You two, don’t be scared, okay? I’ll save you, I promise,” I told them, and some frightening sounds popped up.

I looked around and noticed there was another way I could get to them. Or they could just pass there and get to me. Okay, the second option wasn’t going to work.

“The both of you stay right there, okay? I’m going to pass that direction and come get you guys,” I gestured towards the way. But before I knew it, the little girl ran in that direction.

“What the..” I panicked, but I was quite surprised that she safely got to where I was. But as for the boy, he stood there, still looking terrified.

“You need to save him,” she told me, pointing at her brother. And all of a sudden, she ran off. I was confused, and I wanted to go after her, but I couldn’t just leave her brother.

I turned to him, and he was looking so terrified, but I began to assure him not to worry. “Come on, you can do this. Follow your sister’s footsteps, okay? You got this.”

He stood still, extremely frightened, but I kept on encouraging him, giving him the assuring words. If

his sister could move like that, he could do it as well. But the moment he decided to make a move, things went terrible. Not as I had expected, not as I had thought.
