Chapter 1:
There is a Hidden World in the Planet Earth. A world that is completely different. They have some special abilities. Can be called as a human that has a superpower.
They are no ordinary.
The two worlds, Mortal World and the World of Special Abilities that is called Enchantria, both of them didn't know of each other's existence.
The Portal that placed between them can only open inside the Enchantria. The Enchants(name of the people that lives in the Enchantria) of the Enchantria did not know about this. Only the most strongest Enchants called the Five Legendary Enchants and the Kings and Queens from the three Main Kingdom (Main Kingdoms-three great Kingdoms that rule over the whole Enchantria)knew about this.
They kept it as a secret for more than thousand years already.
If the two worlds will know about this, it is sure that it will bring a big chaos.
45 years ago, a serious conflict from the Kings and Queens of different Kingdoms, gave a secret chaos in the whole Enchantria. But before it goes big and spread to every Enchants of the Enchantria, they immediately forget about it to keep peace. And that is the time, that a traitor has appeared.
The traitor silently stole a bunch of babies and brought it to the Mortal World. The three Main Kingdoms was so shocked, they didn't expect that the traitor knew about the Mortal World and the worst was the traitor had opened the portal!
They were curious how did the traitor know such confidential secret. They conclude that maybe one of the Kings and Queens of the Main Kingdoms and the Five Legendary Enchants, has a traitor between one of them.
They sent a few Elite Enchants to deal with the problem. They found the traitor but it is already late. The babies has scattered all over the Mortal World.
They we're anguish when they heard these news. They silently sent a few more Elite to bring back the babies no matter what it cost. They can't let their existence exposed!
The Elite Enchants that has been sent, brought back a few babies. They can't find the others. Especially that they are more than a stranger to the Mortal World. They don't know anything about them!
The traitor was still not confirmed who is it because when the Elite Enchants saw the traitor, the traitor made itself explode hence they did not confirmed what it's identity.
The Five Legendary Enchants decided to erase everyone's memory about knowing the Mortal World, including the Five Legendary Enchants themselves. Many years has passed and no one knows about the Mortal World anymore.
But during the moment the Five Legendary Enchants and the Kings and Queens of the Main Kingdoms discussed about the traitor, Astria's mother overheard it. Astria's mother was still a child back there, and Astria's mother's father was one of the Five Legendary Enchants.
She was following her father until they arrived at their secret location, they didn't know that a child followed them without being noticed.
She heard everything about the Mortal World and their plan about erasing their memories. She is still ignorant child and was just curious but she was not a child that has a talkative mouth.
When her father suddenly vanished,she realized that they were protecting the secret. She can't let her father's death go in vain so she kept the secret in her heart.
Many years has passed and Astria was born. She gained many traits from her grandfather. Astria's special ability was to read minds, also she can communicate to every people using telepathy, control things that has a life or not just using her mind. With just a wave of her hand, everything around her would be destroyed entirely. She can either be a destruction or a creator. Her mother trained her and tought her everything. She made Astria to become like her grandfather.
Astria's mother decided to give the important case to Astria and it is to found out who is the traitor, the reason the traitor brought the babies to the Mortal World, find the remaining babies and bring them back to the Enchantria.
But that babies should be a parents right now and it has a big possibilities that their special abilities should be inherited by their children.
Astria accept it naturally and whole-heartedly. She went to the secret portal and open it using a spell. She was having a hard time to find the exact spell. She investigated the portal for a few days and listed all possible spell. She has a great and calculative mind.
She recited everything until the exact spell come out to her mouth.
Now, when she opened it, a big portal appeared in front of her. A violet colored flame was sorrounding the shape of the portal.
Her eyes narrowed slightly. The violet colored flame is so strong, it would greatly affect your strength and suppress your special ability. If an ordinary Enchant face this portal, their special ability would be dissipated bit by bit and their heart beat would slow down. The violet colored flame is like a curse, it is like eating your strength and power,until you'll die. But, she is no ordinary.
She was about to step forward when she realized something.
If this violet colored flame was this strong, then is it mean that the traitor was quite......strong?
She shook her head. She needs to gather every Enchants first before finding out the identity of the traitor.
She finally enter the portal, and on this moment, her journey begins.
*****
Astria appeared in front of a small restaurant. She appeared silently so everyone didn't saw her appeared in the middle of nowhere.
Her big bright eyes roamed around her surroundings. The small restaurant was filled with many people. Some are talking, laughing and whispering. This scene in front of her was a little bit queer.
Both Mortal World and Enchantria have similar kind of things. Except of their high tech technology.
The cars, TV, billboard, gadgets, and etc., the Enchantria didn't have that kind of things. They only used their special abilities. Also their clothes...
Astria's eyes are focused to the clothes of a bunch of woman had wore. They are so sexy. Like they are lacking of clothing.
Sleeveless, shorts, make ups.....
What is that? The Mortal World use this kind of thing? Isn't this dangerous? And ugly?
Astria was curious.
When she saw a motors and cars, her eyes narrowed. She went silently and touch it's part.
"What is this thing? "she whispered.
In the Enchantria, they use a horse carriage. For her, came from the different world, it was natural that she was being ignorant.
"Hey, Miss. What's up? "the owner of a motorcycle appeared in front of her. This man was carrying a smirk and his eyes are staring at her face down to her body seductively.
Astria frowned deeply. This man has many tattoo. An earings on his ears that was not look good.
"Isn't it hurtful? "she asked curiously at his earings at his ears.
The man smilingly touched his ear. Haha, how lucky I am to have this beauty.
"Ah this, of course it hurts a little. "
He thought that this woman in front of him was worried for him. But Astria just found it disgusting. He did not look good with that thing on his body.
Astria just nodded her head and turned around to walk when a hand hold her arm.
Her face darkened. In just one second, the man's hand was broken.
"Don't touch me. "
The man frighteningly looked at his hand and shouted in pain.
"Ahhh! "
Astria ignore him and just tour around the surroundings. She inspect silently and carefully.
Some people noticed her being arrogant of everything, they laughed and sneered at her secretly. Of course, Astria didn't know this, she decided to not use her special abilities in this world to avoid some problem. She also has a great respect of everyone's privacy. Unless, it's needed.
"Aiya, a crazy woman is here in front of the restaurant! "
"Geez! Look at her clothes, she looks so poor! It's just so ordinary! "
"Right! She just wore some historical clothes! Didn't she not think that we are now at the modern time? "
"Unbelievable! Maybe she is a beggar! So ignorant! "
Astria's ears heard everything they said clearly. Her brows raised a little as she did not expect that the people here at the Mortal World has this kind of attitude.
But of course, she did not have any plan to face them for their criticism. She's just wasting her strength.
Her clothes were not some historical clothes. They are just similar but if you will see it closely, you can say that they are amazingly beautiful. It's design showed luxuriousness.
Her whole body was covered by her long clothes and her face was covered by some strands of her hair. They did not saw her unbelievable beauty.
The owner of the small restaurant also heard the discussion. When he saw Astria, he also had the same thoughts. But because of her, their restaurant's name might be damaged so he did not have a choice but to chase her away. Their restaurant is small so they should not create some problem that might affect the costumers number.
Astria heard some footsteps on her back. She did not turn around and just stared at the highway where many automobiles was passing loudly.
"Miss, as you see, our customers did not like to see you here. Don't damage their eyes and just go away! "he demanded arrogantly with his both hands on his waist.
Astria's mouth twitched up. Arrogant, eh?
She did not bother to face the owner and just slowly walked away.
The owner's face brightened immediately when he successfully drove away the beggar.
While Astria who was chased away, was silently walking on the road side. Her eyes did not stop looking everywhere.
Many things are unfamiliar to her. Planning to stay here, she need to fully understand everything here at the Mortal World.
Her eyes secretly memorized everything she saw until it stop to an old woman who was just a few meters away from her.
The Old woman has a trouble of walking and she walk very slowly. The Old woman did not notice that a car drove fastly, few meters away from her. Their distance rapidly decreased. The car's owner was just a newbie to driving hence when he noticed the Old woman he panicked and immediately step the breaks but he droves very fast so it needs some time to stop.
His heart beats so fast while his mouth was open. It's too late! The Old woman will get hit!
Astria's eyes swiftly look at the car and the Old woman named Mrs. Miller, her body moves very fast and went to Mrs. Miller's direction. She quickly took Mrs. Miller on the side of the road safely away from the upcoming car.
The car stopped with a loud screech. The man's hands were trembling. His forehead gave a few drop of sweat. He did not know whether he had hit Mrs. Miller or not.
"Are you okay? "Astria casually asked Mrs. Miller.
Mrs.Miller panted in shock and her body trembled. She looked to Astria with her eyes full of gratitude. If Astria did not save her, then she should be a corpse right now!
When she saw that a car would hit her, her heartbeat stop and her whole body froze in shock. She can't move and was ready to accept her fate but Astria appeared out of nowhere.
"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you for saving me! "she thanked her nonstop.
Astria just smiled and an another woman was hurriedly came into their sight. She was catching her breath and her eyes showed anxiety. She held the Mrs. Miller tightly with her trembling hands.
"M-mom! Are you.... are y-you okay? "she asked worriedly.
The woman dressed very elegantly. A white suit and a skirt with high heels. Hmm, she looks like a rich woman.
Mrs. Miller just wore some casual clothes but her face and the woman's face was greatly similar.
She smiled. "I'm okay Tanya, don't worry. "
Tanya hugged her. "You scared me to death! "
There was a man with black suit on the back of the woman called Tanya. He was just standing firmly. He was Tanya's secretary. Tanya was handling a branch company of a big corporation.
Astria wants to left immediately when the owner's car went over. His face showed a great amount of anxiety.
In their surprise, he kneeled in front of Mrs. Miller.
"Please forgive my actions! I did not mean it! I am just a newbie in driving and was careless of my actions!"the man begged for forgiveness sincerely.
Astria nodded in satisfaction. It's good that this man has a kind attitude and knows his mistakes.
"I will accept any kind of punishment! Just please forgive me! "the man begged again.
Mrs. Miller's face softened a little. "Hmm, thankfully that some good lady save me earlier. I'll let this event pass, just be sure to be careful in the near future. "
The man's face brightened a little but a trace of regret showed on his eyes. He knows that he should be punished by his actions. He almost killed her!
Mrs. Miller forgived him as she was pleased by his sincere apology. There was just a few people that has a good heart.
Tanya sighed displeasely but she can't change her Mom's decision. "Go now. Remember what my mother said. "
The man thanked them with gratitude before left.
Tanya and Mrs. Miller faced her. Astria frowned. What is this about?
"Young lady, thank you for saving me. I'm really thankful. "Mrs. Miller thanked her sincerely. Her face showed gratitude.
Astria just nodded her head. "Welcome. "
Seeing her turned around to left, Tanya immediately stop her.
"Wait! Ahh-I am very grateful that you saved my Mother. Please let me repay your kind actions."
Astria stopped and turned around again. Tanya smiled and give her a card.
"I am a manager of a branch company of the big corporation..... If you would like, please let me treat you a meal. "
Astria inspect the card. She ignored the words and was amazed by the plastic card. She can't find this thing to her world.
"Ahh, Miss? "Tanya seeked.
Astria looked up and scratch her nape. "Uhh, I am really a busy person. I can't agree to your request. "
Yes, she is busy right now. She has many things to do! She needs to fully understand how the Mortal World works.
She can't just stay as an ignorant person.
"Then, you can just state what you want. I'll guarantee it if it's within my capabilities. "Tanya said softly.
Astria thought for a while. Hmm, this is a good opportunity.
"Well, I need a place to stay."
Tanya and her mother looked at each other. Even if they are curious why she ask a place to stay, they agreed nevertheless.
"Come with me. "Tanya said and all of them get inside of a car.
Astria who is now inside of a car can't help but to looked everything curiously.
Tanya was puzzled. Base on her reaction, it looks like it's her first time seeing a car. That can't be right, everyone knows it.
"Oh, what is your name? "Mrs. Miller asked softly.
Astria's eyes turned to the old woman.Her eyes flickered. "Just call me.....Astria."
She smiled. "What a great name... "
"Astria, how old are you? "To Tanya, Astria looks like in her early twenties or 19 years old. She just looks too young and very beautiful.
"23 years old. "
Tanya was surprised. She did not expect it. "Is that so? You looks so young."
Astria just chuckled and they chit chatted a bit. Astria was just merely answering their questions until they arrived at the big white House.
"We're finally arrived. "Tanya stated and they got out on the car.
When Astria saw their house, she was amazed. It's big and has a nice design. She's in awe. A manager really got recieved many money? How nice....
But, she detected something.
"Is this your house? "Astria casually stated.
Mrs. Miller smiled proudly. "Yes. It is."
"It's beautiful. "
Tanya was pleased by Astria's actions. She was merely a polite woman, and has a kind attitude.
"Thanks for the compliment. Let's go inside."she guided Astria inside.
When they got inside the house, a beautiful view came into her house. It can't be called that it's a luxurious one, but there are so many antiques that make the entire room viewed prettily.
Tanya smiled and looked at her wristwatch. "Mom, you should go and rest. I'll take care of our visitor."
Mrs. Miller smiled again and looked at Astria with full of gratitude. "Thank you again, Miss Astria. I can't forget your kind heart. Please, make yourself comfortable at home. "
A trace of warmth came through her eyes."I will. "
She watched the Mrs. Miller disappeared from her sight. Her knee seems to have a problem so a maid helped her walk.
"My Mom has an arthritis. She can't walk normally."
Astria was bewildered. She did not know what is arthritis, but she did not say anything.
"Astria, we have an empty room upstairs. You can use it while staying here. "Tanya suggested. She treated Astria kindly because it was her who saved her mother. She can't be rude to her mother's savior.
Astria looked upstairs. Their house has a third storey room. "The two of you are the only person who live here? "
Tanya sat down at the sofa and Astria followed. "Nope. My cousin is on upstairs, maybe sleeping. "
Astria nodded her head. "Is your cousin a girl? "
"Yes, she is a girl. "A glint of disappointment can be found at her eyes. She just shook her head.
Astria saw it clearly and already has a guess about it. "Is something wrong? "
Tanya sighed. "It's just that, my cousin rarely go out in her room. "
Astria frowned. Rarely go out in her room?
"Well, she just have some kind of trauma. Her mother died while she's still 11 years old. And her father was died early when she was born. She was affected greatly to her mother's death. "
Astria chuckled secretly. I think it's not like that. Aiya, I'm so lucky to found her immediately.
