Chapter 17: Town Hall
Alice walked around the earth aimlessly until she go the homes of homes, the place where you could always find a home no matter what you are or who you are.
This city was created by the elders, the wizards when they saw that the humans and some of the night creatures do maltreat their own kind
This place was just like an orphanage but better, here they find their forever family and they feel loved and happy for the rest of their life.
This town was also the smallest and the least visited town on earth but it was one of the town fillies with the most love. This town always had each other backs.
Alice was new to the town, just like everyone who lived far away, she also did not know this town existed. It was like dream to Alice, it had been long since she saw humans or night creatures give so much love out, they were always at war or planning how to destroy the earth.
Just as Alice walked around the small town, she was spotted by an old friend Ursal. She was nothing like others and only Alice understood her when they were growing up.
She would always behaved like a boy to the extent she preferred to be called a boys name than a lady’s. She would play football, hangout with the guys more than the girls and there the problem came in, the people in their city called her a hoe,
They said she was all around guys because she was looking for a way to sleep with them for money because her mom was poor. This made her parents angry and since rumors spread faster than good new, her parents pull not take it any long so they kicked the little teenager girl out of the house. She was probably not sure what sex was then because she was around eleven twelve years.
But thanks to the city of the elders, Homes of Homes which found her a new home after few years of suffering in the hands of the wrongs ones she managed to find in the far far away cities.
“Sorry but who are you?” Alice asked as she felt the texture of the hand covering her eyes.
“Guess, a long time friend” Ursal said as she could not help but blush behind Alice who was lost and tired.
“Well at moment” she stopped to take a deep breath and Ursal removed her hands from her eye and was ready for what was coming next,
“I am too tired to Guess, I am too tired of anything at all, I just want all this to be over…” she stopped when she saw the face of the person behind her and she managed to squeeze out a fake smile
“Ursal!!”
“Don’t stop, what happened? Why are so tired?”
“Don’t worry, was just been dramatic. Well how have you been?”
“You know I got you right? Well I have been cool and doing great until now”
“Don’t let me change your mood Ursal, I am sorry if I did already. I could be on way out of this town if my sadness would spread across all this happy people.” Alice said as her face got more sadder.
“Let’s go inside, talk and have the best tea of your life”
“Yeah heard a lot about the tea here, some says it’s the best while some says the tea is not just the best but the best in the world”
“You would be the judge of that” Ursal said as she walked along with Alice towards the hut.
What century are we in? Why is there still a hut here? Alice thought to herself as she walked into the hut. But it was a lot different from all the random huts she had been into, the inside was epic,
Lots of light that came from some kind of crystal, it was not the normal size of other hut, it was so big inside that it could contain all the colony in the world. The part they had their own type of art was so surprising, they had their own images crafted into the wall of the hut.
“Where is this Ursal?” She asked as she was still busy looking at the wall which were covered with some type of crystals too.
“Well this is the little wonder of the Homes of Homes, this is the little town hall we are building”
“Town hall??”
“Well we have always been ignored all our life so when this war is over, we would be one of the most important people just like the witches, Blue-fox and the rest.”
“So how would the town hall help you guys achieve that?”
“Well when this war is over, this would be the only hall that was not destroyed and it would be the hall all the colony would use to reunite.”
Alice laughed a little at the plan before saying her mind,
“This looks a little stupid to me tho, once the shadows are done with the south, West and East, they are heading for you guys NEXT” she made emphasis on the next so it could ring a bell in Ursal little head
“So?”
“So?? You would all be dead if you did not find your way to the end of the earth to the city there”
“Well one, before the shadows get here, the teenagers in the prophecy would appear and help us out and two, this wall was made to stand any attack, spiritual or physical and three, we can show the shadows love”
“Love???!”
“Yeah, love conquers all” Ursal said as she tapped Alice shoulder and walked further into the hut,
They got to a place where they finally had the opportunity to drink the tea and just like all she had heard, the tea was all, it was nothing like she had tasted.
“No tea in the universe can defeat this taste.” Alice said as interrupted the silence at the table.
