Chapter 21 - Poor kid

Heavy rain poured down on the earth, their breath froze, drawing it in, then exhaling it into a thin mist, their eyes filled with worry, but they remained steadfast, staring straight at the innocent mirror.

They turned to each other, looked at each other, then nodded their heads to understand each other, without needing to say much.

"We need to get behind the mirror as fast as possible."

Jerry's fingers touched the cold mirror, the mirror had a smooth texture, but it felt like it was tearing at every soul, his eyes remained cold regardless of anything, her long hair fluttered a few times as the wind blew through it.

"Is Kama perhaps already behind the mirror?"

Yadz's question hung in the cold air, several pairs of eyes were watching him, Fizen lowered his head, while others don't know what to answer.

"Currently Danji and Lyzky are heading to the last place Kama was found, if he is not there, it is possible that he was pulled behind the mirror just like Ray"

Dark clouds covered the sky with gray clouds, their eyes seemed to trace every drop of rain that fell.

"I can't be calm like this, I have to join the search."

Jerry just stared blankly at Yadz who was walking away, his back fading away swallowed by the silence of that moment, Fizen was still standing there, his back leaning against the wall, still maintaining his relaxed gesture.

The sound of footsteps was heard, the figure became more visible, her snow white hair fell down beautifully, her light blue eyes were like an ocean that swept the air with warmth, Luna stood there, her face looked very worried, slowly her footsteps getting closer.

"I heard from Yadz just now, Kama disappeared, is that true?"

"That's right, and it's not wrong, he disappeared a while ago."

Luna's eyes widened, but then she shook her head quickly, trying to get rid of all her negative thoughts.

"I will come along to look for him."

Fizen smiled, then turned his head to Jerry who was still studying every drop of rainwater, he sighed, his hands folded across his chest casually.

"We don't have to just still here Jerry, I don't think joining in the search is such a bad idea."

Jerry turned his head, then he nodded, agreeing with Fizen's idea.

"Now Queen, come on, hold my hand"

Queen's eyes widened, her gaze looking sharp at him, her eyeballs rolling to avert her gaze, Fizen only reacted flatly to Queen's sulking actions. His hand then reached for hers, Queen gasped in surprise, her cheeks slightly heating up.

"Hold on your sulking for now, okay?"

Queen nodded even though she had to turn her face away after that, her lips pursed with an annoyed expression implied there.

"Cestele, Luna, hold Queen's hand, we'll get there quickly."

Luna didn't protest, she just held Queen's hand like that, then her eyes fell on Fizen in confusion. Cestele rubbed her chin, feeling doubtful about the advice given. She sighed then her hand started to rise to grab Luna's empty hand.

"What are we going to go with huh?"

Her hand touched Luna's palm, and in an instant, they were transported to a park, their minds immediately blank, while Fizen smiled mischievously.

"What was that just now?"

Cestele was stunned, her eyes swept around, the place was completely different from the school, or near the neighborhood, it was a place with a hundred percent difference.

Queen was silent, now her eyes looked to the left, seeing a figure who was still smiling while looking at the heavy rain.

"Who are you actually?"

Fingers turned, his lips were deliberately made to widen by him, his teeth peeked out from the gap between his lips, giving a cheerful smile.

"I am only ordinary human."

Fizen took a few steps to get closer to Jerry who was far ahead, at that time Queen looked at his back, her heart screamed because of something, her eyes were shining.

Far ahead, two men were seen holding umbrellas in the rain, Danji and Lyzky, they had finished checking on Kama, they both jogged to approach.

"How? Did you find anything?"

Danji and Lyzky looked down, then their eyes drooped, and stared at Jerry intently, he shook his head slowly, Jerry's face became even more flat when he saw the silent answer from the two of them, he took a deep breath.

"Then we didn't find any clues at all."

They lowered their heads together, it felt like the fire of hope within them was fading, two of their friends had disappeared who knows where, without any news at all, it made their hearts restless.

"Well... We should get back to school, we'll discuss this later, right now we should go back and calm down."

Jerry's voice broke the silence so gently, warmth spread in their hearts when they saw Jerry's calm face, they then parted their lips and nodded slowly.

Luna felt restless, her feet took a few steps forward, to feel the raindrops with her hands, her eyes drooping seeing the almost dead plants. Her light blue eyes lost their light a little, her thoughts spinning.

"Luna, let's go back."

The faint voice of Queen broke her reverie, she turned her head quickly, just regaining her consciousness, with a bitter smile she stepped closer to them.

Her eyes widened, staring at something strange, the wet mud seemed to be asking for a call, Luna's eyes trembled with curiosity and fear there. She crouched down to see what she saw clearly, when she was shocked to see the tiny body lying helplessly.

"Ahhh!!!"

A small scream escaped her mouth just like that, the others' attention was diverted to Luna, their steps hurriedly approaching.

"What's wrong Luna?"

Jerry infiltrated the atmosphere that Luna felt, his eyes shifted to see the tiny body lying completely helpless.

He quickly crouched down to get a closer and clearer look, his hands going down to wipe the area around his face that was covered in mud, as his eyes widened at the sight.

"Isn't this Noah?"

Hearing that, Fizen approached quickly, he noticed the boy who was lying helplessly.

His body was covered in mud, there were several scratches on his body, as if he had been thrown by something big, his hands looked like they were gripping tightly, as if he was trying to resist in vain.

"This is really Noah, we have to help him!!"

Jerry blurted out, and as a look of worry appeared on several of the others' faces, they nodded in agreement without a moment's hesitation.

At that time the rain was pouring down even harder without any mercy at all, without a single sliver of light coming in, only a clump of grey clouds closing in.

Kama was nowhere to be found, and neither was Ray, they were both nowhere to be found, there were no clues about them, their only hope was Noah who was still in deep sleep.
