《Rosa Perri Gilbert》Chapter 14
Advertisement
In no time I made it to the cafe area. There weren't a ton of people around considering the fact it is still holiday. Well it looks like I beat Sammy here.
I was about to sit down when a voice shouted behind me,"Perri!"
I quickly turned around with a smile on my face knowing exactly who it was, "Sammy I missed you!" I said running to give him a hug, "How are you?"
"Better now that you're here, I've been dying of boredom in this place," he said letting go of the hug, "So why are you back so early?"
"Family drama," I said rolling my eyes. It isn't a complete lie, I mean I didn't tell him the whole truth, but that was a major part of it.
Sammy gave me a serious look, he could see right through me, "Obviously there's more to that story. But I'm not gonna push the subject...for now. But anyway, lets get something to eat."
"Finally, now you're talking!" I sighed happily, "Leggo!" I grabbed his hand and dragged him to the cafe cart.
Soon we were sitting at our usual table, eating, laughing, and just being carefree. I didn't realize how much I needed this, how much I needed to be around 'normal.' And honestly it feels really good, too.
Sammy stopped laughing and looked at something behind me, "Uh. Perr, do you know them?" he asked pointing. I turned around to see none other than the Mikaelson's...yay.
I let out an aggravated sigh, "Just ignore them, I do," I said, knowing full well that they heard me.
"Who are they?"
"Uh...friends of the family," I said, I noticed Nik chuckle.

"Why are they here?" Sammy continued to question.
I thought for a moment, "Because they don't know when to leave something alone," I growled, Sammy furrowed his eyebrows a me, but stopped asking about them. Thank God.
"So anyway, have you heard the rumors about the Prix De Fonteyn?" He asked excitedly.
This immediately lifted my spirits, "Yes! It was be incredible if it was held in Sydney! Aunt Tash and Uncle Seb aren't saying anything to me about it. But they have hinted that it will be."
Sammy's eyes once again looked being me, "Um Perri, they're coming over here."
When I turned once again I saw that they indeed were making their way over to us.
I groaned at laid my head on the table, "Just kill me now!" I whined, kinda dramatically, too.

Criminals from around the world are summoned by a mysterious being who informs them that they only have 3 months left to live unless they climb the mysterious tower that lies before them, through which they can gain another two weeks added to their lifespan for every floor conquered. They soon discover that they can harness powers that have been granted to them by this mysterious being to not only achieve victory against the enemies that they will face in the tower, but also attain their deepest and darkest desires as well. Watch our protagonist's journey through the tower as he struggles to endure the curse he bears, one which damns him to ever-repeat his climb to the top of the tower, until he succeeds. *** This is a rewrite of a story I started writing about 3 months ago which was written in the third person, and this rewrite shifts the story perspective to the first person. There will be occasional user polls to decide how the story progresses, interspersed throughout the story, and the polls that were done in the original version will still apply to the current version. Also if you have any suggestions for story ideas that you would like to see incorporated, leave a comment about it, and they might show up in the future. Lastly, I hope you enjoy the story, and thanks for reading. P.S. Thanks to gej302 for the cover art.
