Chapter 3
Amara
“Good luck my princess, you’ll return home with success!.” Mother prayed with a kiss on my forehead. I smiled in return facing everyone who gathered to wish me well on my journey to the other world. My eyes darts at Zania among the crowds.
“Its time to leave princess Amara.” Mazu voiced out.
Suddenly a magic entrance to the other world appears. I glanced at mother and everyone one last time, a tear strolled down my cheek, am going to miss my kingdom.
“Bye….” I waved slowly getting into the porthole…
Everything was blank and white as i kept falling to an unknown destination.
I finally came out of the porthole appearing in a large busy street. What is this place? Where am I? Its almost dark, I thought I left Amelia this morning…
“Hey watch out nitwit!.” A man screams at me, a bright light flashes at my face. I had to move away from the light that’s from the man’s strange moving object. He yells at me and zoomed past me.
What was that? This place is so different from Amelia.
I walked further still don’t know where I am.
“What’s she wearing?.” I turned back to see two men grinning at me, they are both puffing out smoke from a stick like thing.
“How much for a night b*tch?.” The first man says.
“Nice ass..” The second man says. He attempts in moving close to me.
“Who are you two? Where am I?.” I asked politely. They stared at themselves simultaneously with a smirk plastered on their face. I sense trouble..
“Come here b*tch. We’ll show you around.” The first man touches my left arm roughly.
“What’s a b*tch?.” I thought.
As he held my arm, knowledge about this place waved at me instantly.
I blinked my eyes, everything happened in just a sec.
I smirk at them. “Leave my arm or else…..” I warned..
“Or else what b*tch?.” He snaps.
“Bark.” I utter low giving him an intense look. He left my arm and began barking like a dog. The other man looks at me and stared at his friend with frightened eyes.
“Who are you? What did you do?.” He stammers shivering.
“Fílu mîråtá.” I cast as he disappeared into the thin air.
“F**k you two.” I muttered.
Oh don’t mind my language, have gotten to know this place immediately that guy touched me. Its part of my powers.
I just have to look for a place to stay tonight and search for the amulet tomorrow. I glimpse at the bracelet grandmother gave me with a deep breathe.
My eyes caught a lady about my age, she’s holding two bags of groceries as she walks towards my direction.
I’ll have to put on an act.
“Hello miss.” I said stopping her as she got close to me. She stare at me, confused.
“Uhm do I know you?.”
“I’ve no place to stay, please help me.” I plead shedding fake tears.
“I…..uhm..don’t…” I couldn’t let her complete her statement, I deliberately fell to the ground.
“Miss? Are you okay? Miss?..” She calls shaking me vigorously.
Can’t believe princess of Amelia is doing this….have no choice anyways.

“Oh she’s awake. Thank goodness.” I quickly dropped what I was doing and moved close to her. She slowly opened her eyes, sits upright and stares at me.
“Are you alright miss?” I ask concerned. She nods affirmatively. That’s a relief!.
“Where am I.?” She ask staring at everywhere.
“Oh, you are in my house. So what happened? Where are your parents and love ones?.”
Amara

Immediately she asked that question, I kept thinking for a suitable lie, I knew she was going to help me when I sighted her. She’s kind hearted❤.
“Uhm they are…dead.” I finally found a lie. She shakes her head sadly. Obviously, she bought that.
“Am sorry. I’ll be of help in any way I can.” She says.
‘Thank you so much miss.”
“Actually am Tricia Fredrick. What’s your name?.”
“Amara Pik….Amara Adams.” I reply.
Yeah I can’t possibly tell her my real surname. most importantly I have powers and my mission here.
