《Hanami》Her heart raced
Advertisement
The white one-piece was a simple sundress, designed by one of the most famous designers in the fashion industry. From afar, it looked like a simple, bright, and sparkly spring dress, but that was far from what it truly was. The thin shoulder straps were made of pure rhodium and studded with all diamonds aligned on each strap. Not just the straps though, the entire dress was lined and decorated with rhodium to give off a bright reflection from the sun. How much is rhodium? The current market puts it at about $2,100 per ounce, where platinum sits around $800. Now, the fabric used for the dress was a special silk and wool combination, both from Vucana sheep. These two fabrics range from $1,800 to $3,000 a yard; for reference, a scarf costs around $20,000. The market value for this dress was placed at 2.2 million dollars. It was indeed one of a kind.
Isabelle wore this very dress to Biscord High, on the first day of school. This was her second year attending this high school, so she had no business going to the freshmen orientation. But she wanted to go there anyway. She had hopes of finding the boy that helped her the other day at the park.
As she excitedly walked through Biscord High's main entrance, almost everyone around stopped in their tracks to stare at her. Everyone knew who she was, but no one dared to approach her. It was partially due to her security detail, but we all know that's not the real reason why… They could only look from afar and adore her.
In her head, she was thinking all sorts of things: "What should I say to him If I see him? Will he recognize me? Does he even remember?"

BA-DUM, BA-DUM, BA-DUM.
Her heart raced, and her face flushed red. Seconds later, she felt as if butterflies were flying all around in her stomach.
"What is this feeling?" she thought, "Am I embarrassed? The great Isabelle Royale? Me? Feeling embarrassed?"
"Or am I excited? Excited? Excited for what?"
"Maybe I'm nervous? But what am I nervous about?"
"Is it him? Is it because I'm going to see him? Is he the one making me feel this way?"
BADUM-BADUM-BADUM-BADUM-BADUM-BADUM-BADUM
Her heart raced even faster at the thought of him.
She kept on walking while lost in her thoughts with a smile on her face. Before she realized, she had arrived at the gymnasium.
BUMP
She ran into something hard and fell back onto her buttocks. Her sunglasses dropped to the ground, and her right hand landed on it while she attempted to break her fall with both her hands. Her mind went blank for a second before anger erupted within her like a volcano.
"Are you ok?" a voice asked.
She realized it wasn't a thing that she ran into; it was a person. This person tried to apologize and help her up to her feet, but her bodyguards stopped him. They came swooping in and clearing the crowd.
When she got on her feet, she started screaming at him.
He offered to pay for the dress and the amount that she announced destroyed his mentality.
'How could a dress cost so much?! My life is over…' Jack thought.
She fell onto the floor in front of everyone. Her new dress was dirtied, and her sunglasses were broken. Her face flushed red again, but it wasn't because of the same feeling as before. Isabelle felt embarrassed to the max, and she saw red.
She was so startled and angry that she didn't recognize the boy in front of her, and Jack was so shocked by the price that he didn't recognize her either.

'I've just moved to the city and spent all of my money on rent. I haven't gotten a job yet, and now I'm already slammed with a huge debt… ' Jack thought, with his mind in utter despair.
"I'll work it off to pay for the dress!" Jack begged.
"You think you can just work it off to pay for this dress?!" Isabelle screamed.
"Please! I'll do anything!"
"You'll do anything? Who do you think you are? Who do you think I am? I don't need anything from the likes of you!" Isabelle claimed as she turned her head and crossed her arms.
Then, Jack got on to his knees. The most shameful act a man could do. With an ugly frown on his face, he continued to beg.
Suddenly, a lightbulb lit up in Isabelle's mind.
She thought that of employing him to find the boy, she met at the park.
'What a great idea! Yes, yes. I won't have to embarrass myself like today if I have someone else find him for me!' Isabelle thought.
"Get up, peasant. I do have something for you to do for me. If you complete this task, I'll clear this debt. It's just a dress after all," Isabelle said.
Jack quickly got up and thanked her, "Thank you, miss! I may not look it, but I'm a hard worker! I won't let you down!"
"Yeah, yeah, whatever... Let's go!" she said.
She turned to the entrance and started walking. Isabelle's thoughts continued, 'Oh my god! How unsightly! I hope 'he' didn't see what happened!'
BA-DUM, BA-DUM, BA-DUM
Her heart started racing again. Her cheeks flushed red, and she held her face with both hands to hide it, as she walked out of the gymnasium.

The Ruined Monks of Rothfield Monastery
Erin is the youngest member of the dark monks; a supernatural brotherhood whose ultimate mission is to improve the dire circumstances of poor, war-torn villages using powers unique to each member. Or so he was led to believe. Erin, like his brothers, does not age, and that is, unfortunately, the only trait he shares with them. He cannot charm or compel like Woodrow, he cannot cast illusions like Knox, he was not swift like Swithin, not powerful like Blake. He was barely an assistant to his dear brother Wilbur, with his herbology and alchemy. He was told to lie low and make himself scarce. That is what he did. The dark monks temporarily reside in abandoned monasteries scattered around the country, feeding the poor and healing the sick, nurturing the monastic lands until it was fertile enough to raise crops and rear animals. As the years passed, they would leave these reformed, repopulated, self-sustaining monasteries and venture froth to help the next settlement. Yet, after years of toiling and quiet servitude, Erin notices that people and the country itself are declining. The villagers look gaunt, the once-lush soil now barren and cracked. He begins to feel disheartened, thinking that their mission is proving futile. Still, their leader Blake is steadfast and charges onward, and lately has his eyes set on a certain monastery in a thick, thorned forest that seems to diminish, even nullify their powers. A thick forest that Erin somehow has a connection to. A thorned glade where an ethereal voice calls his name with one simple request along with a promise:Heal the land, child. Heal the land and I promise to give you sanctuary so long as you stay. I promise to nurture you as you nurture me. As Erin cultivates the land, the land, in turn, gifts all its caretakers with new, enhanced skillsets on top of their unique powers -- skills of protection, healing, and magic. Magic. Erin had long wished to see the world fill with it again. The people, regardless of common or noble blood, still believe that magic will enter this world again. Magic to bless the king like it did the Saints. Magic to dispel the miasma befouling the world. Magic to bring back the fae folk and their many forms. It is up to Erin to forge the many paths leading to a bright future; to build a prosperous paradise that welcomes all races and bloodlines, by mastering the rewards gained through agriculture, horticulture, and animal husbandry, smithing, crafting, and fishing. Erin may also find a lifelong friendship and romance with his neighbor, Claude, if he decides to pursue him, and may even join him in the military campaign outside the monastery. The darkness still lurks outside, after all, and the mastery of his skills, along with a few good friends, may finally be enough to turn the tide in their favor. Most of all, Erin wants to keep the vow he set for himself: to protect everyone and everything he loves until his dying breath.
