"Right okay, step, step, Y/N step!" Mum laughed guiding me. I had a blindfold on and she was guiding me to my surprise. Tom and everyone had gone ahead to 'get ready' so it just left Mum and I. "Okay okay I'm stepping" I said laughing too. "Not much longer" Mum said. We walked a little further, "Okay, open!" Mum shouted. I opened my eyes and "SURPRISE!!" Everyone shouted. I gasped and started crying. "We wanted to make this a special birthday. I know your only 19, but over the last couple of months you haven't had the best of times. We wanted to show you how so very proud of you we are! Happy Birthday sweetheart" Mum said crying. "Mum, this is amazing. Thank you so much! I love you!" I cried giving her a hug.
All of my friends and family were there. I went around and spoke to them and thanked them for coming. There was karaoke, a dance floor, a bar and a lovely spread of food. I was getting some food when I heard Tom behind me say "whenever we can't find you, you can guarantee we'll find you where the food is" he said laughing. "What, I love food" I say taking a bite of a sausage roll. Tom was laughing. "Hey!" I said laughing giving him a hug. "Thank you for everything Tom. I love you" I said looking at him in his beautiful eyes. "You deserve the world Y/N" he said leaning in to kiss you. You melted into the kiss. Tom pulled away. "Anyway, it's your turn on the karaoke" "What, nooooo" I said backing away. "Yep, come on" Tom said pulling you towards the dance floor.
"Birthday girl!!" Paddy shouted. I took the microphone and started looking though the songs. "Oh goodness, I have no idea what to sing!" I said laughing. I finally chose. "Okay okay, this is my favourite song from my favourite film! 'This is me' from the Greatest Showman" I said. The music started and I got into position. "I am not stranger to the darkkk. Hide away they say cuz we don't want your broken parts" I sang. I was getting into it. "When the sharpest words wanna cut me dowwwwnnn" I looked at Tom and I could see he was grinning from ear to ear. I smiled widely at him and carried on singing and dancing. I beckoned for him to come up on stage. He did and started twirling me around. He even started singing too. "I won't let them break me down to dust

I know that there's a place for us
For we are glorious!" He sung as he put his arms around my waist. I forgot everyone was there and it felt like just Tom and I. I looked into his eyes as we both sung and I didn't want it to end. It was perfect.

And Simon answered their call with a single statement that nobody understood "Et super mos absit hoc hodie!" "Yah!" "WWWaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!" "AAAlllllaaaaallllaaaaallllaaaa!" "EeEEellllleeeeeelllllleeeeeeuuuuuuu!" I, too, yelled a battle cry at the top of my lungs. I had no idea what Simon had just spouted but from Camilla's giggling, I could guess that Simon thought that spouting nonsense was his way of getting out of the earlier predicament. "I forbid death upon this day," Camilla said. "What?" I answered a bit at a loss. "Ancient Latin," she replied smugly, "He said 'I forbid death upon this day'." I laughed aloud "Then he is gonna be really disappointed in everyone here," Camilla did not reply and instead took a deep breath. I did the same, zoning out everything in my surroundings. The environment became a world of electrical pulses traveling across several networks. I perceived the world through my lightning and sped my heartbeat to inhuman levels. I was present now, at this moment, at this point in time. I could feel the electrifying air saturating my lungs, the electrified ground vibrating at the rhythm of the approaching enemy. Then I took a step forward, everyone followed in tandem. Camilla the first, and then the others. Then I took a second step, and this time everyone followed simultaneously. Third step… Fourth step… Fifth step… Then light jogging… Speeding up… Running … Running faster…. Then suddenly, everyone disappeared into motes of light particles that re-constructed itself hundreds of feet above the horde, dozens of miles away from our initial position. We were literally 'diving' into battle.-------------------------------------------------------------------Despite a rough childhood in the slums, Omari had everything a guy could want - a loving girlfriend, an understanding sister, a wonderful teacher, and his dream job.
