Teleport Scroll

Just a while after Malay fired the <Flaro Linea>

"So, everything you said is true?"

A wordless nod followed. The person who just asked the question opened and closed his mouth like a fish, the weird scroll in his hand. Naturally, he didn't understand a single thing it said.

Warret ran his hands over the scroll, sweating crazily, trying to search for clues. Mino sat beside him, dried blood sticking to his face obstinately.

He was trying his best to hold back tears. The situation seemed hopeless. The rain suddenly turned weird, gouging everything it touched. The basement was locked and was therefore unreachable.

"He's fucking senile!" a panicked voice declared that.

Amene stood up and said, "Don't jump to conclusions Alison. I feel something from the scroll, the same thing I felt when I was near... them."

"......It doesn't lead us anywhere..."

Mino was hopeless, his shoulders were slumped, his back arched inwards. He was looking at the floor quietly, averting his eyes from the group of bullies who were standing close by.

"M-maybe we can d-do something..." Maina tried to dissipate the ominousness, but her attempt failed miserably.

"Oh fuck what are we gonna possibly do!"

Ashu cried out in rage.

"Don't vent out your frustration on others you dickhead!"

Gareth's eyes were bloodshot.

Warret, Royo, Maina and Amene had went to take shelter in the school shed when it started to rain heavily in the middle of their outing. They being athletic, could easily climb the outer metalled gate and enter the campus. Surprisingly finding the door open, they went inside and took shelter. They were not the only people there though .

They found Alison, Gareth, Nesson and Aster coming back from someplace. They didn't reply when asked what they had come for, or how they managed to open the door.

Soon Ashu followed, he was on his way to Mino's home but the rain was too hard for him to continue. That forced him to take shelter in the school shed, but he went inside the building upon finding it open. Now, they found themselves stranded.

Mino arrived soon after, completely battered, and tired after so much running. He managed to climb the gate with a lot of struggle. By the time he was running, the <Rupturing Rain> had already started. So why was Mino unharmed? Yaleena had put a barrier on him.

"Gurrrruuuuuummmmmmm.....Gurrrrruuuuuuuuuuummmmmm...."

Deep, rumbling noises sounded out of nowhere.

"The lightning's too violent... and very sudden... just like this rain..." commented Royo, opening his mouth the first time after arriving here.

"Because it isn't lightning."

This single comment from Mino instantly earned him confused looks.

"W-what are you trying to say, you bitch!"

Alison's deathly pale face was worth seeing. Grabbing Mino by the collar for the second time of the day, he threatened, "I'll throw you out in that hellish rain if you try to joke!"

"Alison, stop this if you want your arms to stay intact..."

A slow deep growl from Ashu quickly silenced Alison.

"Guys it's not the time TO FIGHT!!!"

Warret shouted his lungs out while facing upwards, his eyes shut tightly.

"A thunder clap from a momentary lightning strike can't be this long..." Mino continued, finally released from Alison's grasp as the rumbling went on, "And lightning bolts can't be this continuous either..."

"T-then... what is it...?"

Ashu quietly whispered.

"Maybe a beam of fire? Just like in the morning?"

"...!..!....!...."

Mino's reply earned him shocked looks.

Alison looked like he would start thrashing him any moment.

The rumbling sound grew louder and louder, forcing them to cover their ears. And then Royo pointed towards the window, "Guys! LOOK!!!"

All heads turned towards the window. A beam of white was seen. It was reducing everything in it's path to dust while advancing towards their school building rapidly.

"Hah! I was right!"

"FOOL! It's NO TIME to celebrate! Think Warret think, what can we do..." Warret was looking downwards, his hand covering his mouth and chin.

"Hey Warret, the scroll please."

Ashu made a sudden request.

"Heh? What are you gonna do with this."

"The scroll please."

"Uh... okay..."

"W-wait! Don't! He's gonna get us killed!"

Alison's eyes were as wide as saucers, and his voice filled with terror.

Warret conceded to Ashu's strange request.

And surprisingly, Ashu threw the scroll in the direction of the beam!!

"ARE YOU FUCKING NUTS!!!"

"That was our last gamble, let's hope it pays off."

It did pay off.

The beam redirected itself towards the scroll, as if it wanted the scroll to be destroyed at any cost!

The scroll unrolled rapidly, the text in it glowing. The moment the beam touched the scroll, it left behind nothing but ashes...

Or so it should have. But to everyone's surprise, the text area greedily devoured the beam.

The witnesses couldn't believe their eyes.

"We are save-Aaaaahhhh!"

As Ashu shouted this, not only he but each and every one of them got pulled towards the scroll.

The space around it was swirling chaotically, a multicoloured portal appeared! And just like that, all of them were sucked into the portal, their screams drowned away while the portal closed.
