Their leader spoke seriously to them. They nodded.
“ I gave you the coordinate to find the person “
“ I’m sure you will be able to know who it is right away “
After that, their leader hangs up the communication. He didn’t want to risk being caught. He doesn’t know what to expect in the human world. Beside having humans dressed up in a uniform is how they describe it. But, in human terms they are called ‘ police officers ‘. They don’t have that in their world. So, I'm the first to experience it. They noticed they were in the alley after a quick look. The alley they were in was enough darkness to hide who they are. They were speaking in native language. They look at each other. And they both came into the same conclusion. They decide to blend in with human society. It was the only way for them to find the person they are looking for.
Along with doing their duties faster. Since, the human president won’t find it suspicious. The man’s partner decides to lift the barrier around them. They cast a protective barrier around their bodies. It was the only way to mask their scent. They had to smell as human as possible. The clothes they were wearing automatically changed. It changes into normal casual clothing. It swiftly did its job at will. The mask they wear helps blend in with the human society. Instead of a fox mask they wear; the mask changes its appearance to be more convenient. They were wearing a ‘ human ‘ mask to blend in with. After that, it didn’t take them ten minutes to do that.
They came out of the alley. In human eyes; they look like formidable handsome men. Their next task was to find the person who would help them. To do that, they decide to follow the coordinates that their leader gave them.

Back at Alcatraz Island
The leader’s POV
I was sitting on the roof of a building. My fine warriors were there ready and on high alert. They had my back. I was waiting for good news. I had to hurry to find HER. It was the only way to do so. She would be the one to save our people. And also it would be awesome. Especially myself. I didn’t trust any humans for that matter. Not after what the humans did to someone important to us. I remembered it all. We all did. It all started on July 2 1991. That was the start of everything. The start of someone important to us. She didn’t want to have anyone die on her watch. No matter how small or big of the situation. It was in their nature.
We were there to witness it all. We shouldn’t have tapped in. And help the humans. With that choice, it not only causes distortion between time and space. In the world we came from is the original world. Where we know every human. We know who dies and who lives. But, the human world we live in; is the what if world. A world where anything is possible. And this world we live in is a dream world for the person we save. Scratch that. The world that SHE did for two humans. And they shouldn’t be alive in the first place. Not only that, we heard rumors that the same one is taking advantage of HER. The same person who saved their lives. If my memory serves me right; it would be coming from The Johnson Family.
It seems like they don’t want to live anymore. And because of HER saving the lives of two people in the Johnson Family; strange things start to happen. Many lives are dying. Anyone who knows the person or spreads it or whatever; their lives will drastically change. They didn’t follow the rules within the promise. And now would be a great day if SHE remembers everything. That way the world can go back to normal. In this world we live in; two humans are saved. But; the cost would be the lives of someone important to us. And they took advantage of it. And we must take it. The ones who broke the promise that was made between them. It seems the Johnson Family didn’t understand that.
“ We will find you Heather no matter how long it takes “
“ I will not allow another one of our kind die for the mistakes of those two pathetic humans “
“ They shouldn’t live. I just don’t understand why my Heather has to die to save theirs “
I sigh. I remember everything that happened. It wasn’t supposed to be like this. Bad things always happen when hidden secrets are still hidden. I closed my eyes. I start to look into my memories.
** FLASHBACK **
27 years ago [The original world]
“ We aren’t supposed to be here “
A man’s voice spoke out.
“ Aww come on babe. Don’t be like that “
A female voice came.
“ But, we aren’t supposed to be in the mirror of life “
“ What if we get caught by the royal family “
A man spoke out his concern. There was a beautiful girl. Her hair shines brightly like the sun. Her eyes were gently but cold as frozen as an iceberg. Her skin glows like a snowflake. She was similar to that of a snow queen. Except her heart was warm. And filled with love and life. They were standing next to her was the opposite of her. He was gloomy and full of quiet. He wasn’t that talkative. He was only like that to his girl. His hair reflects his emotions. And his spark the hint of passion for her.
“ Come on Heather, we aren’t supposed to tamper anything in the mirror of life “
The girl’s boyfriend spoke out to her. Heather turned around. She was about to touch it when suddenly she heard footsteps coming. She had no choice but to hide behind the pillar. She pulled her boy with her. They were in close contact. He could smell her arousal. They had to stay quiet.
“ That’s strange. I thought I heard someone here “
A gentle and angelic voice spoke out. It somehow sounds like a female voice. But, It was a mixture of sweet and rough.
“ See? I told you there nothing to worry about, your royal highness “
A man's voice came out.
“ But, I did felt someone coming close to the mirror of life though “
The same gentle and angelic voice spoke out. The man next to her shakes his head.
“ Come on, your royal highness. You have to go back to your twin sister. The royal princess “
“ What if the king and queen see us here ? “
The same man’s voice.
“ That’s the thing. I’m sure I’m not the only one here. My twin sister tells me that she could feel that something bad would happen to the humans “
“ That’s why I was done here to make sure no one tinkle the mirror of life “
“ We can’t have our world split for the mistake of someone who’s trying to change someone’s death “
His royal highness spoke out to his royal guards. The mirror of life starts to sparkle and glow. A strong gust of wind appears out of nowhere. The wind could sense that someone was in the mirror of the living room. It took out two people. His royal highness and his royal guard turned around.
“ What are you doing here Heather and Heat ? “
His royal highness spoke to them.
“ Do you know this place is off limits ? “
“ What will happen if my father and mother catch you ? “
“ You two would be instantly in death row “
His royal highness shook his head. He heard his royal guard lecturing them. Heather whimpered at what she heard. The strong gusts of wind disperse. When it did so, his royal highness twin sister appeared from it. The little girl slowly opened her eyes. Instead of her natural eye color; her eyes and hair turn into white. And her voice wasn’t normal. It was as if it was talking in riddles.
“ A twinkle of light will vanish “
“ Two star will fall from its grace “
“ It will starts to call forth to them “
“ Landing into an empty world “
“ A world bless with the gods and goddess “
“ Nature blooms and new life begins “
“ But two lives of humans will dance into darkness “
“ One star will help and that will be chaos to everything “
The audience in the room heard it. The little girl finished. She closed her eyes. And she starts to fall. Before she fell, his royal highness caught her fall. After she says that; the room starts to shake. It was as if the little girl predicted it. The whole building starts to shake. The royal family felt the change in the air. Within the magical portal; there were plenty of tentacles coming from it.
“ My babies ! “
The queen’s voice spoke out. The queen protects her children. She protects her people. The tentacle grabbed the ones closest. It grabs the little girl’s foot. Heather saw it. And she grabbed her hand. But, it was too much to bear. The tentacle continues to come for more. The queen could see the magical portal to another world starts to open. It continues to suck in stronger air. The king and its royal guards hold onto the pillar. It was the only way to keep them safe.
“ Protect the queen “
“ Protect the heirs “
The king ordered. But, what is the question in his mind? The cries of help continue to grow. And in doing so, the magical knights appeared. They were floating in the air. They try not to get close to the portal. They destroy the tentacles grazing the little girl. But, this time; the tentacles that looked like an octopus were angry. It grabbed the Queen’s foot.
“ Mother !!! “
“ My queen !! “
Both her husband and her children called out to her. Strange thing occurred. A mysterious symbol appeared on the little girl’s forehead. Her twin also has it too. They both react to it.
“ What is it now ? “
“ It’s too early for them to awaken to their other halves “
A bright white light glows around the little girl’s body. The queen and her child were close to her. They grab hold onto them with their hands. They pull as they might. And it wasn’t enough. The strong gust of wind drowned everyone nearby. It was already too late to save them. Heather, her boyfriend; Heat, the queen, and her two children were sucked into the portals. The magical portal was closed. The building stopped shaking. They can’t do anything but to watch it in the magical water. They could see what’s down there. All of them reach the human world. It was pushed in green in nature. The stars have reached their destination. It leads to a hospital in the human world. There were tons of pictures. And a sign. A sign that says ‘ San Francisco ‘. They all landed in their butts.
“ Ouch where are we ? “
The queen spoke. She looked around. Her eyes grew wide.
“ We are in the human world “
The clothes they wear automatically change. It changed into fancy clothes. The human doctors and nurses saw them. They bow to them. The humans weren’t stupid. They know they are powerful due to their outfits.
“ Our ladyship you came “
A human male doctor spoke to her. She turned around. She swiftly changed her attitude. It was easy for all of them to adjust their surroundings. The queen spoke in English. A language that humans spoke of.
“ What’s going on here ? “
The queen spoke in authority. The humans bow down to her. The other two royal princes were with the king from their world. They call it the ‘ original world ‘.
“ Mother; I sense death lingers in the air “
A little boy’s voice spoke his opinion. The queen looked at her son.
“ Mother; I could hear a plea for help. It’s coming from someone “
A little girl’s voice informs her opinion. The queen looked at her daughter. The humans were impressed. They showed them where it was coming from.
“ What happened? Speak now !! “
The queen spoke in authority. But, it was gentle. The humans complied.
“ Well it’s like this “
Another spoke out. She spoke for the doctor.
“ A mother was given birth to a child that was unexpected “
“ It was unplanned. They already had a son and daughter “
“ I believe they are the Johnson Family “
The nurse spoke out. She gave them the clipboard that has all the information about this family. It was quiet. Until the little girl spoke out.
“ Can you hear mother ? “
“ The cries for help becomes stronger “
“ It’s pleading for help “
The little girl spoke out. She pointed where it was coming from.
“ There “
The door to the patient was swung open.
“ That’s the room where the Johnson’s Family were “
“ Mr. Johnson and his family are there “
“ Mrs. Johnson is laying in the bed. She was heavily bleeding “
“ She was heavily bleeding due to the fact that her premature unborn child was given birth “
“ Her premature unborn child is trying to receive life from the nurses here “
“ The infant’s lungs weren't developed well enough. So if she was able to give life; her physical body will not be the same “
The doctor and the nurses explained further. The little girl starts to frown. The queen was shocked. It was the first time her daughter displayed this kind of power.
“ The mother and the child will soon die. They won’t be able to be save “
“ It will only take a miracle to actually happen “
The Johnson Family continues to go to church and pray for their recovery. The queen saw her daughter full of life. It was very powerful. She could tell her daughter wanted to save the human life. But, she cannot interfere with death. Strange. She has a part of darkness within her. It was as if death was lingering inside her. A surge of power to save the life of two humans. But, it would cause chaos. That’s one of her daughter’s powers. The power was too strong. In a fit of rage; the power continues to grow. And as it grow; it starts to explode quickly in a flash. The world starts to split in half. Heather was there and everyone else witnessed it.
There was already a paper signed in blood. The blood came from the ‘ Johnson Family ‘. Heather could see that the royal princess was the one who saved these two human lives. But, Heather decides to transfer the fate of it into her. Heather disappeared. The royal princess didn’t open her eyes. The lives of the two humans were saved. The Johnson Family was happy. The paper that was signed in blood and a video was recorded to show that they did promise it. It was given to Mr. Johnson. The dream world ‘ what ifs ‘ were created. And the original world was the only world closed. It was the start of all chaos. And the lives of many in the human world start to crumble.
Death after death. The only way for the two lives of the humans from the Johnson Family to continue to live on was to kill people unconsciously. It was the only way. The death curse appeared on Mrs. Johnson and it's infant daughter. We heard the name of their unexpected daughter. Her name was Joceylnn Johnson.
