Luke grabbed my shoulders to spin me around. In the process, my hood flew to reveal my hair that fluttered from the wind. My hood fell down as my face instantly revealed my identity. He brightly smiled as he grabbed onto my wrist to pull me towards the helicopter. Shelly gasped as I was helplessly being dragged on the roof until he pushed me into the helicopter.
Both Alex and Shelly ran to join us as they soon locked the door. I squeezed my cloak as I couldn't believe this was where everything ended. There were so many things I was unable to do yet. I couldn't visit that movie set or play the games at the game centre. There were so many restaurants on my list and I had only scratched two of them out from my visits.
"We're not going to the villa, or we?" I trembled.
"We're going to the villa," Luke continued his bright smile.
"How was she able to get all the way here?" Alex grumbled with his arms crossed.
I knew I should have stayed at Melissa's house! With her generous heart, there was no way she would report me. But I didn't regret my actions as I had enjoyed going to the movie theatre, spending time alone in that hotel room and eating all the food I wanted. I knew I would be caught one day, but not this soon.
"Where were you able to get the money?" Luke held in his anger.
"An angel helped me out," I refused to disclose Melissa.
I would somehow pay her back on my own someday. I would pay her double or triple the amount I spent for the past few days. I also had the money in my bank account in the third district. The money there piled up as I rarely visited that district.
"There's actually some good people in this world," I mumbled.
"Well, you may never get to meet that person again. Tell me that person's name so we can pay that person back," Luke waited for me to answer.
"I will never tell you her name," I muttered, not having the courage to yell.
"You'll have all the time to tell me in your bedroom at the villa," Luke gave up in pressing me for answers for now.
I laughed as I tried to provoke sleeping beauty. It would be better to die than to enter another cage. I yelled inside the helicopter, "I will never kill you. Please rot inside your little coffin and suffer from being separated from your lover forever. You deserve it!"
Like sleeping beauty had heard me, my body wobbled like she was trying to summon me back into that cave again. I could only go to the place she rested when I was asleep. I felt my body collapsing onto the seats as my vision became blurry with each passing second. My head throbbed as my consciousness left me from all her efforts.
I was inside that horrible cave again, but this time, I wasn't the only one here. Jason held sleeping beauty in his arms. He frowned as he couldn't leave her to sleep on the cold ground. He returned to the same place with a large coffin and placed her inside. When the scene appeared too dreary, he brought some white flowers with him to fill the rest of the space.
It was like Jason and sleeping beauty were replacing the main actors in that movie. The space strongly resembled how it originally was before someone added that cage she was placed inside my prior dreams. He used the rest of his mana so that she would always be protected from anyone else who entered the cave.
He created a cage that I was familiar with. Jason didn't want anyone else to touch her until she woke up from using too much mana. This was what Charles and Ben warned me about in the sixth district. People who almost used up all their mana slept, never waking up until they recovered some of it. The myth of sleeping beauty was a cautionary tale to not repeat the same mistakes as she did.
I gasped as the movie was the tale of her life. But I couldn't pity her, she was the one who ruined my life. Jason never returned to her as he turned into a fairy after being murdered by his subordinates for his successful business. He couldn't move on as he had a great regret for not being able to wait for his lover to awake.
The only way she could be freed to join him was if someone killed her physical body. However, nobody knew how an entire tower had been built on top of the cave. The chairman's office also had to be enchanted as time had stopped inside that room. I sighed as I realized the mess I got myself entangled with the moment I decided to help Ella.

As usual, when I woke up, I found myself inside the infirmary instead of my bedroom. The smell of medicine filled my nose as I found Luke sitting beside my bed, reading another book. This was the room in the villa I stayed in before we went to the hotel. My eyes widened as I could properly move this time without anyone trying to heal me. How many days have passed for me to recover from sleeping beauty's cruel spell?
