(PH 2)
Inside the library,
the silence that once existed had already shattered.Books were scattered across the floor.Tables had shifted from their places.
The glass windows still trembled faintly.
Anie stood frozen.Her hands were still shaking slightly.
Even she didn't fully understand what she had just done.But the Hunters
had clearly seen it.One officer grabbed his radio.
"Subject confirmed.She has awakened."
Another Hunter raised his weapon.
"Don't move."
"I… I didn't" stepped back.
"Enough."officer walked forward.
"It doesn't matter whether you understand what is happening to you."
His eyes were cold.
"You are now
in Hunters custody."
Anie looked around Mira,other students.
Time was still frozen.
But the Hunters were moving normally.
That made her even more afraid.
"Who are you…?"
Hunter laughed....
"We are the ones
who find people like you."
"Called."
looked directly at Anie.
"You're not the only one."
Those words
sent a cold shiver through her.
"What does that mean?"
Before the officer could answer
A sound.
Footsteps in the corridor.slow,calm.
Hunters immediately turned.
Their guns pointed toward the door.
One Hunter spoke into the radio,
"Movement detected."
Someone
was standing outside for a few seconds,no one spoke. door slowly opened.
man stood there jacket,hair moving slightly in the air.calm expression
on his face the moment Anie saw him
she froze.
"…Eli?"
He slowly walked into the library.
his eyes scanned the hunters.
Then he looked at Anie Just for a moment.But inside that moment
were many memories.
college campus old days inside this library.Simple conversations,then
he turned back toward the Hunters.
"What do you want
here?"
Hunters reacted immediately,
"Stop right there."
officer raised his weapon.
"Identify yourself."
Eli stood still,"I was a student."
faint smile appeared "Once."
officer said impatiently,
"Step back now."
"Are you okay?"looked at her
"I… Eli… they"
"Enough!" officer shouted,
"Possible second subject." He spoke into the radio,Hunters formed a circle.
Eli,let out a small breath
"Do you know what this place is?"
"We're not idiots." hunter laughed.
"It's a library." looked around.
"People come here to learn."short silence,then he added
"Not to hunt."
"Fire."!!!!!! officer shouts...
BANG.,,,
gunshot
echoed through the room.but bullet
never touched him.because before that
he was already gone hunters
were shocked.
He was standing behind them...,
"You make decisions too quickly."
One hunter quickly turned.
But,,,,
CRACK....!!!
Elijah grabbed his arm and forced the gun to fall.another hunter tried to strike him. Eli stepped aside With a quick motion,the Hunter hit the floor.
she stood there her eyes wide.
"Eli…?"
Was this really the same person
she knew?
Hunters,were trained fighters.But Eli
was moving like they were nothing.
three hunters attacked together,One pulled out a knife.another raised a stun baton.Eli stepped back once,
Then his eyes changed...
faint light appeared inside them.Anie
saw it.she didn't understand but the air
around him shifted.
Hunter swung the knife Eli raised his hand.The knife stopped before touching him It froze in the air.hunter trembled.
"W-what?"
Eli spoke calmly,"You wouldn't understand this."
He moved his hand slightly, hunter
was thrown backward.
another hunter charged with the baton.
Eli avoided it then he touched the floor.
for a moment,
The air exploded outward!!!
A powerful shockwave hunters
were pushed back again.Anie
saw everything,Her eyes filled with disbelief.
"You too…?"
Eli looked at her,short silence.
"Yes."
Hunters finally understood. officer shouted into the radio,
"Second Called confirmed!,Requesting backup!"
Eli sighed, "That won't be necessary."
"Shoot him!" officer shouted angrily,
BANG...!!
BANG...!!
BANG...!!
Bullets flew toward Elijah,But the air
around him twisted. bullets changed direction.
They struck the wall hunters stared in shock.Eli walked slowly forward.
"Let me tell you something."He stopped in front of the officer.
"Leave her."
officer stepped back,"Impossible."
"Is that so?"he smiled slightly.
he raised his hand,pressure formed.
Hunters dropped to their knees.
air itself forced them down.Fear
appeared on their faces.
she stood there,only one thought
inside her mind.
Eli…
Was he
always like this?
Why did he
never say anything?
he,looked at her.
"Anie."
"Let's go."said her name softly.
she,was still confused.
"Eli…who are you?"
Elijah stayed silent for a moment.
Then he said,
"You're the one
asking that question now."
"That's good."small smile.He extended his hand.
"Come."
she looked at his hand,then at the hunters.then back at Eli,her world
had completely changed,slowly
she stepped forward.
she held his hand,together they walked out of the library.behind them the hunters remained,defeated.
That night one thing became clear.The Called,was not just one person.Now
there were two and the hunters had not realized something yet If these two stood together, the war would change.
