Tragedy 67 - Invisible Village
...'***...
"Where am I? Who're you?" elvina asked the woman sitting in front of her.
"You're doing fine. Tomorrow morning all your wounds will heal on their own" the woman told Elvina. Ignoring his words.
"My answer, please. Where'sisthis? Why am I here, and who are you?" Elvina asked him the same question. He still did not understand why he suddenly could be in this place, even though the last thing he remembered was Elvina was at the bottom of the cliff after falling deep enough.
"My name is Dorothy. You're in Invisible Village, this is my residence. One of the villagers accidentally found you and two friends in the woods unconscious. Not having the heart to see you, they decided to take you to my place. Lucky they came at the right time and brought you here, otherwise the guards would've caught you and brought you back to the lab."
"Invisible Village?" Reload Elvina.
"Yes. A small, invisible village, where evolvers who managed to escape from the laboratory gathered and tried to hide from the guards who were looking for them."
"You mean.. was there another evolver who had escaped besides us?"
"Yes. And they're all gathered at my place" he explained. The attention of the two of them instantly shifted as William's shouting voice filled the entire room.
Elvina turned towards the sound of William running towards her, followed by the veiled woman and a tall, tanned man who was none other than a man of European descent.
"El!" William hugged his brother's body.
"Will.." Elvina held him tightly, she was moved and relieved to see her sister was fine after the incident they experienced.
"I'm glad you're sober" whispered William.
"I'm happy too, you're fine" Elvina replied with a smile.
The people who were there just kept quiet and looked towards them with a knotty smile. All three were equally surprised to see the closeness of the two brothers.
"No. It's also thanks to you fighting so hard to protect me even if your strength drains away." William smiled knot.
"I should have fought to protect you, you're my brother."
"What about you, is your body sick? Are you hurt too?"
"Your brother's fine, you don't have to worry." Dorothy answered. William and Elvina turned towards him.
"really? Thankfully, I was really relieved to hear it" William said.
"Well, Will, it turns out you're such a loving sister" said the man who had originally come with William.
Elvina and William looked up at her. The man, who had a tall body with white skin and tanned hair like a European, had beautiful green eyes.
Elvina looked surprised upon hearing the man was able to speak Indonesian so eloquently.
"Of course, we've been very close since childhood. So, I love her very much" William replied to her.
"That's what it looks like." The man was a beard.
"Will, who is he?" Elvina looked questioningly. William had just opened his mouth, but his voice was stifled when the man suddenly cut his sentence.
"Oh, how disrespectful I am. Sorry, for not introducing myself right away" the man told Elvina.
He drew a little closer to Elvina, then thrust his hand in front of her.
