"She will be okay, she has always been strong so there is no way she wouldn't be able to overcome this" Huo Lian said as she wiped away the tears on her face, if they were the one lying on the bed there is no length that Huo Ying wouldn't go to in order to save them but they couldn't do anything for her other than waiting for the herbs which they weren't sure they could get, Huo Mei cried herself to sleep while Huo Lian was still awake to watch after Huo Ying then she fell asleep after a while. Some minutes after both guardians fell asleep, she started shaking and sweating profusely, she kept on mumbling something.
"Huo Lan…. Huo Lan" Huo Ying mumbled, the guardians woke up when they realized that there was something off with her. They realized that she4 was sweating profusely then Huo Mei quickly dipped a cloth in a bowl of water, then she squeezed it and used it to dab her forehead in order to wipe away her sweats.
"What is wrong with her, she wasn't like this a while ago," Huo Lian asked anxiously
"I think she is having a nightmare; this means that she will be gaining consciousness soon," Huo Mei said as she wiped the sweats off Huo Ying's forehead.
She entered a dark cave slowly, she felt like that place seems familiar to her but she just didn't know where she was, she kept on walking and walking deeper into the cave but there was no one inside the cave.
"where am I," Huo Ying said in her dream, she wanted to leave the cave but she couldn't, she felt like there is a force that keeps moving her forward that she couldn't resist.
"is anyone here, Huo Mei, Huo Lian, Huo Qiang!!!" Huo Ying shouted, she didn't feel afraid but she was wondering why the guardians weren't with her when they always followed her around and she didn't even know how she got there, then suddenly she saw someone, a young girl with red hair and red eyeballs smiled at her from afar, the girl also resembled her, everything about them was the same apart from the red hair and eyeball, they were completely identical. The girl from afar smiled at her and kept waving at her, she was more than happy to see her, Huo Ying couldn't believe what she was seeing, her sister was smiling at her and waving at her, she just couldn't believe it.
"Am I dreaming, Sister is that you?" Huo Ying asked as she slowly walked closer to the girl standing in front of her, tears of joy welled down her face. How could she not get emotional when she was seeing her sister for the first time in eleven years, the sister she has always missed every day and night but she couldn't see or touch. Right now, she didn't care if this was a dream, as long as she could see her sister, she couldn't care much right now. She ran towards her sister and held her hand.

"sister is it really you," Huo Ying asked, the tears just couldn't stop, she was just too happy to laugh
"silly girl, I am the one, I have missed you so much," Huo Lan said, then she placed her hands on Huo Ying's cheek and wiped her tears.
"you don't know how much I have missed you; I am sorry for being so useless, I can't even bring you away from there all this while," Huo Ying said, she held Huo Lan hand even tighter after she cleaned her tears.
"I know, you don't have to blame yourself, I know that you have been doing your best" Huo Lan said
"Sister, let's go home now, don't stay here anymore, I don't care about the consequences of bringing you away just come with me," Huo Ying said
"I can't, you all need to wait for me, one day I will come back to you all and we will be together once again," Huo Lan said, Huo Ying started crying once again, she shook her head profusely, she just couldn't let Huo Lan go, she had just seen her for the first time and they have to separate again.
"you have to go back now," Huo Lan said, tears had already started falling from her eyes.
"No, I am not going to leave you here let's go together," Huo Ying said, then Huo Lan pulled her to her chest and hug her tightly, Huo Ying also wrapped her hand around Huo Lan, she has never had the chance to feel her sister's warmth for eleven years. She closed her eyes and tightened her grip on Huo Lan then the tears found their way to Huo Lan's cloth, then suddenly Huo Lan started to disappear little by little from her grip, Huo Ying opened her eyes, she felt her sister slowly vanishing her grasps, she widened her eyes and extended her hands to hold Huo Lan's hand before she fully disappeared but she couldn't, she had completely disappeared. She became devastated, she just kept on shaking her head profusely, then she fell on her knees and shouted "NO!!!!".
She cried aloud hoping that she would come back, the heartache she felt was just too much for her to bear, she felt like her chest was too stuffed and suffocating so she just kept on hitting her chest as she cried loudly while kneeling on the ground.
"Huo Lan!!" she shouted loudly as she clutched her cloth, then all of a sudden she found herself in another part of the cave, she kept on hearing someone screaming and the voice seemed like a girl's voice so she just followed the direction where the screaming was coming from, she just kept on walking and walking.

......
"she just shouted Huo Lan now, didn't she," Huo Mei said to Huo Lian, whenever she wiped the sweat on Huo Ying's forehead after some seconds the sweats appeared again, they were now worried about her condition.
"I think she is dreaming about Huo Mei, I just hope she will gain the will to live through her sister" Huo Lian said with concern on her face.
"one thing I am sure of is that her sister is the cause of her condition, know that she hasn't seen her sister for eleven years but their bond is just too abnormal, I have never seen such love between sisters," Huo Mei said
"We are also a twin but we are nothing like them," Huo Lian said then she sighed.
"I am very certain that there is more to the both of them," Huo Mei said, then she breathe in a sigh of relief when she stopped sweating.
...…
As she walked deeper into the cave, she suddenly saw the figure of a young girl who is chained, the place she was chained in was very large and there seemed to be everything that she needed inside the cave for her. Then another young girl walked into the room and removed the chains from her hand and feet, the other girl helped the girl who was chained to eat and take her bath, then he changed into another set of cloth then she returned to where she was chained and started meditating. Huo Ying smiled when she saw her sister happily chatting with the other girl, she was happy that her sister was living happily and she had something to talk to. Then the scenes changed, suddenly her sister was chained again and three masked people entered the room and they started dispelling her sister's martial art, she heard her sister screaming in pain then she wanted to rush over to where her sister was o help her but she couldn't move, she was horrified at the sight of her sister screaming in pain, she kept on trying to move her feet but it wouldn't budge.
"Huo Lan!!" she shouted, then she gasped and opened her eyes. They were surprised that Huo Ying had already woken up.
"young mistress, you are awake," Huo Mei said as she held Huo Ying's hand but all of a sudden, she burst out in tears, they were all taken aback by her actions.
"Young mistress, what is wrong," Huo Lian asked, she wanted o stand up but she felt too weak to sit up then Huo Mei helped her to sit up on the bed.
"Huo Lan…she…she" Huo Ying stuttered amidst her tears. Huo Mei used her hand to wipe away the tears on her face, then she placed her hands on her shoulder.
"Huo Ying it is alright, look at me and tell me what happened," Huo Mei said, as she looked at Huo Ying with a sad expression on her face. Although they always called her young mistress, she had always wanted them to call her by her name since they all grew up together.
"I saw her…then…then she just disappeared" she stuttered, then she sniffed her nose and continued "she...she was smiling before but some people were trying to dispel her powers and…and she was screaming in pain but I couldn't help her".
"It was just a nightmare, it's alright," Huo Ying Mei said then she hugged her.
"she was in a lot of pain but I couldn't do anything to help her," Huo Ying said as she cried while Huo Mei hugged her, Huo Mei released her then Huo Ying stopped crying then she wiped the tears on her face.
"Why did you have to hold it in without telling us, you should have left before it got worse, unless Huo Qiang returns with the herbs you need, the worse might happen," Huo Lian said to her.
"Am I going to die?" Huo Ying asked
"don't say such things, you are not going to die, trust them," Huo Mei said, then she laid her to sleep.
...….
It was already midnight but they were still riding at a very high speed, with their horse-riding expertise, they were very confident that they could reach the vitality sect within three days.
"We have to keep riding without stopping, we need to reach there within two days not three days anymore," Huo Bingchen said, then he whipped his horse to increase his speed.
"Alright" Huo Qiang and Huo Li chorused
"But we don't have any plan to get the herbs," Huo Li said
"We absolutely can't ask them for it, we have to steal it," Bingchen said, then he whipped his horse again while the others did the same to catch up with him.

Essence Eater (A Super Progression Fantasy)
Gods. Demons. Aliens. Superheroes. Supervillains.Consume them all for power. Eighty years have passed since WW2, when Prime took to the skies and ended the war. No one knows what gave him his power, or what birthed the wave of supers that came after. Some claimed the nuclear bombs dropped in Japan cracked the barrier between Universes, allowing alien energies to enter the dimension. Others believed the wars finally triggered what humanity needed to reach a new stage of evolution. Daniel Das lives with his uncle in post-super London, the League of Hero's primary hub. He's spent all of his twenty-one years pushing himself, training in martial arts and studying supers, hoping he'll awaken his metagene and gain super powers. The cut-off age is close, but he hasn't yet awakened superpowers. Meanwhile, the League is steadily losing parts of the city to the growing villain factions. Daniel's uncle wishes to keep him away from the world of supers, but with the hot zones closing in, that's easier said than done. There are villains selling unregulated superpowers to gangs and dark days are on the horizon. Despite his limitations, there is no stopping Daniel. He is ravenous for power. If needed, he will ally with demons if they give him the power to protect his family and home. -------------------------------- This world building is heavily inspired by Worm and The Boys. It features dark, realistic storylines, corporation-funded heroes, and villains who aren't necessarily bad guys. The protagonist's powerset involves the crowd-favourite consuming enemies for power trope, too. The GameLit/LitRPG elements are super light and takes a while to kick in. The powercreep is slow as well since I don't enjoy overpowered protagonists. Chapters everyday until book 1 is complete. The schedule will change once I reach that point.
