Chapter 121 - What Is The Police?

The royal family of Arimelari entered the town. They got to the nearest eatery to discuss their next plan. The set up of the restaurant was nothing like the one's in Arimelari and the writing on the menu was unreadable to them.

The food served was foreign in name and looks, they were lost for words. They also happened to witness a man with his tongue down a woman's throat with his hands roaming places in her body they wouldn't dare say. That too in public.

They had no place to go and no money.

"Can I see you outside for a moment," A girl offered to speak to them?

"Who?" Ella Questioned.

"The two of you," she said pointing at Ander and Amaru.

"Oh, I know you are not pointing at me," Ander let out ready to burn the girl's hand.

"Please," the girl pleaded.

"Let's see what she wants," Amaru told. Ander didny bulge, he remained in his seat pretending he didn't hear him. Amaru waited a few seconds before dragging him along behind the girl.

She led them to the back of the eatery, there were other girls there already waiting for them. She took her place next to the blond-haired girl and looked down.

"Wow, you got them to come," the blond stated surprised. "I'm Summer," she introduced herself to the two.

Ander stared at the hand offered to him without reacting. He could only think of various ways he could detach that arm from the girl's body for daring to attempt a handshake with him.

"Why are we here?" Amaru asked cutting to the point.

"You look so han..."

"We are good looking get to the point," getting irritated he let out. But he didn't need them telling him how he looked because he had a mirror back home.

"We were hoping to hang," she said to him putting her hands on Ander's shoulders. "I think you are cute. And with me being hot, I thought you plus me equals the best couple," she added in a flirtatious voice.

Ander's aura went from normal to cold in seconds. Having the woman be so close to him made him want to vomit. He glared daggers at the girl warming her of the dangers of what she was doing.

"I am going to kill you," The dragon spoke with the iciest tone he could master in his annoyed state.

The girl and her friends back off a little and involuntarily rattled their teeth in fear of him. His voice made them shiver and tremble in fright but their looks were so inviting they could overlook the scary.

"So, you want to hang us?" Amaru questioned getting his knife out of his pocket. His knife was so sharp it could cut through anything. The girls dashed off seeing his knife, only the one who fetched them remained behind.

She had her eyes wide open and clutched her hoodie in fear of the two men.

"You have a guardian?" Ander questioned. She nodded her head in response. "Call them here or die. Your choice," he offered her.

Amaru was lost, he found that with Ander he could never tell what the boy was thinking. The male wants to meet the girl's parents for reasons he didn't understand. It puzzled him why the dragon would waste his time for something so irrelevant.

The girl was so terrified she fetched her phone and dialed her mother's number. Her mother who worked at the eatery came rushing to her immediately.

"What is going on here?" she asked them standing in front of her daughter to protect her. Ander and Amaru smirked at her attempt of heroism. A second is all they would need to end her child's life without having to move from their spot and yet she thinks that she can keep her child safe from them.

"Your daughter has upset us. We were having a family discussion peacefully when she interrupted us and brought us out here just to waste our time so you have two options, you join help us or we kill her," Ander said to her.

"You better leave or I will call the police," she threatened.

Ander and Amaru stared at each other for a moment before looking back at her. The word police " was foreign to them like most of everything that they had seen and heard in this weird place they found themselves in.

"What is the police," Amaru dared to ask. He tried not to but he was curious who the person was that was being used to threaten him.

Having stayed alive for centuries it wasn't often he was threatened and forced into something he didn't want to do.

"Are you joking with me? You think I won't do it?" she threatened and reached for her phone. Ander and Amaru watched her with interest. The thing that the young girl used to call her even she heard. It seemed to glow when tapped like magic and it made them connect.

"I wonder what sorcery they are using?" he asked Amaru in a hushed voice.

"We will find out but first. We can't let her call the police or whatever here. We are in unfamiliar territories, it will be best if we proceed with caution," he advised.

Ander swayed his fingers in the air and drew the phone to himself. "That won't be needed," he said and used his other finger to draw the girl to himself.

"Do as we say or she dies right here," Amaru warned putting his sharp knife to her throat.

"Argggh," the girl screamed in fear. "Mommy helps me," she added her voice attracting a man walking past.

He approached them to find out what was wrong when suddenly he forgot why he went there in the first place and left.

"I hear another squeak out of you, I will kill you slowly to give you a reason to scream," Amaru whispered in her ear releasing a little of his aura to help her understand just how serious he was.

"Please don't hurt my babies," the woman pleaded to understand the seriousness of the situation. It was crazy and scary what the two can do. She had just witnessed them using powers, it was way beyond her and the police so she dared not act smart.

"Now we are getting somewhere," Ander said.

"What do you want from me. If it's money you want I can get it right now just let my baby go," her hands and feet were shaking terribly from the fear that he had towards them.

"What is money?" Ander asked her. "And why would you assume I want that?" he inquired when she didn't answer him.

The woman was shocked beyond words from the question. She never thought she would see the day when someone would ask her what money was. But judging from their clothes and looks, they didn't seem to be from around. It was as though they were aliens with their powers.

Thinking of the possibility her body went numb. She lost the will to talk and answer them.

"She is gone," Amaru let out pushing the girl to the ground. It was no fun to threaten a woman who was shocked out of her wits.

"We need a place to stay. Where can we find such a place?"

The girl looked up hearing their question. She was scared of them and her mother was paralyzed by fear to help her. "Our house isn't far from here," she answered in a soft almost non-existent voice.

"Do you have food?" the girl nodded her head to his question immediately. Being alive was more important, she thought.

"Good, lead the way," Ander said. He closed his eyes and liked with Annak. He instructed them to come to him with the family. Amaru helped the girl's mother up from the ground and helped her walk.

The family soon joined them and together they made their way to the house the girl offered to them. They got weird looks from the passersby, they looked out of place with their outdated clothes.

The girl hurried home and let them into the house. They got into her house and settled down in the living room. They observed the foreign things in the room wondering what each of them did not come up with good guesses.

The girl went to a corner and sat there praying for her father to come home soon.

"This place is weird and it just gets weirder," Malcolm said. The others nodded, his words were exactly what they all were thinking.

"But it is also interesting. I want to know so much of this place."

"All that is nice," Alex let out. "But for now we need to learn what we can of this place to survive. If we are going to live here then it will be best if we familiarise ourselves with this place," he added seriously.

"I agree, the people here seem to be using a different type of magic. I need to learn it to create a counterspell," Annak said fetching her spellbook.
