The Atlantean Compensator 63 The Forbidden Floor 1

Everybody went to sleep, as they were told from Heracles that tomorrow's training is going to be one of the toughest ones so far.

But for some reason, Herald and Elara did not sleep.

Herald was lost in his thinking and thought he was the only one awake at that moment, until Elara messaged him.

She created imaginary words on top of Herald saying.

"I can't sleep.

Would you go out for a little walk?"

Herald smiled, knowing its Elara.

So he got up and through signs he asked her to go out with him.

It was 2Am. as dark as it could be but Sahaqiel's lights never shut off. They light the castle in such a majestic way.

Herald. "..How did you know I wasn't asleep?"

Elara. "You normally snore..."

Herald felt embarassed.

"Oh do I.... Hhahahahah Well i won't deny it."

Elara. "What were you thinking of?"

Herald. "Well...Many things.

I am sure we share a lot of those thoughts, all of us 7."

Elara. "I do not think..

I only imagine, If I miss something I imagine it and it feels real.

Thinking brings the worst in me."

Herald is a bit shocked.

"Wow...Well, I can see where you're coming from.

You never told me though.

How did you manage to come into here?

I'd figure out your family had issues with that..."

Elara. "Guiado is the friend's family.

He knew my father long time ago, when he came asking to pick me up.

They were all for it, he told them it was an educational trip.

They trust him."

Herald was shocked. "..Guiado!"

Then he linked all the events together.

'....Then he's no where near our age.

He must have....'

Elara replies. "Yes Guiado.

He's a good man... I remember once i lost control over my powers.

I had a mental breakdown and everything arround me seemed to get destroyed.

He came out of nowhere and saved the situation."

Herald asks. "How did he do it?"

Elara. "I still don't know for sure.

But Guiado has similar powers to Alkeyder.

So I guess he put some sort of a spell or a seal on me to keep my powers under control."

Herald. "I see...

It's very ironic because i always saw him studying at the same University I did.

All of that was just an image...To keep an eye on me."

Elara. "Hmm..

You're still not sleepy?"

Herald. "A little bit, you want to get back to bed?

Heracles won't take it easy on us."

Elara. "Yes.

Don't worry I'll make you have a very nice dream."

She smiles.

Herald gets shy of seeing her beautiful smily face.

"Oh...That's sweet."

In these moments.

Two others haven't slept yet!

But they're not one of the sevens.

They're none other than Alkeyder and Aciya!!

Having a very intimate time, a long hot night.

Alkeyder says as he's kissing Aciya's neck on the bed.

"...I sure can't make you forget your two heartbreaks, but I can make you feel just as good."

Aciya smiles as she's heavily breathing.

"..Oh stop it!

Don't say it...like that...."

Alkeyder. "Say what?

We have been too busy for so long you forgot I am your husband?"

Aciya. "Never did i forget that!"

Alkeyder only answered with his kisses and touches.

Aciya. "...I sure hope they won't hear my moans from up there."

Alkeyder laughs. "Well I can block the sound from reaching outside, but not if your moans were that loud!"

Aciya. "...They will be."

Alkeyder gets all over his wife, as they got deeper and deeper in their sexual fantasy....

On the other hand,

Herald and Elara are climbing the stairs calmly towards their room.

Suddenly, he stops for a moment!

Looks up at the stairs and thinks of something...

"Hey Elara...

Where do these stairs lead on top?"

Elara. "...I don't know.

No one has reached that floor."

Herald. "...And why is that?"

Elara. "The Masters banished us from doing so..."

Herald. "Is that so....

Makes me even more curious to know."

Elara. "You'll go there?"

Herald suggests. "...Wanna join?"

Elara stays silent for a little..

Then without saying anything, she joins him.

Herald. "Alright let's be very calm so no one hears us.

Sebastin is a deep sleeper so he desactivates his powers at such time."

Elara. "...What if there was something really dangereous?"

Herald. "...I doubt.

I think there's a hidden secret in here they don't want us to know about..

In any case, i got my powers and you got yours."

*They climbed the stairs, now they're on the second floor..*

It's vast one, very dark and gloomy!

Only one big spooky door for what it seems to be a big hall room is in front of them.

Elara asks. "We'll enter?"

Herald. "We came this far..

I got an idea.

Stay here, until i come again to tell you it's safe."

Elara. "But It's better if I was the one doing that.

My powers are more pragmatic for such situation..."

Herald. "No they're not.

Just wait here Okey?"

As soon as Herald completed his sentence....

THE DOOR OPENED ITSELF AND SUCKED THEM INSIDE!!!
