THE ESCAPE BATTLE I

FIRA’S POV

Two days ago…

We prepared in the evening. I put on the bag everything that we needed in a hurried way.

"Mama, where are we going?" Ember was gazing at the bag and then went to me.

I down my knee and grasped both of her cheeks. "Listen to me."

She moved her head in an up and down direction.

"I love you." My voice was just low.

"I love you, too, Mama."

I swallowed my saliva and grabbed a deep inhale. "You’ll be a good girl like what Papa Janus and King Fire said, right?" She nodded again. I exhaled harshly and continued. The nervousness was on my chest. "When we out in this room. Do not create any single noise. Just follow me, okay?"

She nodded again. She was a smart kid. Once she agreed, she would do that. I kissed her forehead and then sat on the bed.
