The Price of Divinity

Chapter 11: One Fifth



Note is back in the scenario, however, this time he isn't in Nala's body. He again becomes the same as the one in the room. Note starts seeing Nala very happy with the change. He can only feel happiness to see a person who became one now be happy. Note feels as if he is the one who won.

Note managed to touch her shoulder while she was crying and trying to find the answer to her sudden loneliness. Note could not communicate with Nala, only managing to graze her shoulders. 

"Thank you, Note." Nala managed to understand the meaning behind everything that happened.

Note felt a sudden calmness from those simple words. He finally felt that he wasn't just someone who was lonely; for the first time, he thought that he was getting recognition for his hard work. Note could only look at Nala as she stood up, her dress covered with blood but still retaining her unparalleled beauty. 

Note was still just there, floating in the realm of Nala. He could not return to the room only spectating what Nala does. Note wasn't ready to leave Nala; he wanted to see what would happen to this scenario. He still doesn't know if he will ever see the future of this scenario. 

Note followed Nala as she left the mansion to greet the people. Nala, with a new light blue dress, captured everyone's attention. Note like a father a father tried to cover Nala, but he could do nothing. Nala started to speak to everyone and present herself the way she always presented herself. People were all drawn to her; she had a spell on everyone: kids, adults, and animals. No one was safe from the charm that Nala emits.

After Nala introduced herself to everyone, she started to order people to start the reconstruction period. The first part of her plan was to start with feeding everyone well for they to have better energy to start on a road to connecting the people. Nala still hadn't forgotten the people living closer to her district. 

Her district still had no idea of the change but prayed that it would be the same as the one where she currently is. Nala decided to check and break the news, bringing with her the others to show that they weren't joking. Her main concern is the kids since they always tell the story of the monsters outside, unlike here where there is no such story, only more guarding preventing anyone without confirmation from leaving or entering.

Nala was ready to fight back against any rebellion from her people. The only hope she has is that she is highly valued by her district. Everyone is in love with her. It was her only card, and she is willing to use it when needed.

The long journey back was similar to that; however, before leaving, everyone started clapping and screaming her name. This time she felt very happy and decided to have and blow kisses towards the crowd. 

Nala, on her way, started to order her followers to spread the news that they were going to live better, and that change was happening. Every town started cheering at the news; some believed it was fake, but the use of the people from those towns being very happy made them believe that it was true. 

Nala reached her home. Arriving, she went towards her mansion; seeing her home made her feel extra confident that this was for the best. Nala ordered an emergency meeting for all the people to listen to the news.

Nala saw everyone cheering from seeing her. Her heart felt more at ease. Nala took a deep breath, grabbed the microphone, looked directly at the people, gave a small smile, and started her speech.

"People of Lara! I am here to tell you that today you will be part of history. Today we will unite as one. The people we ostracized for centuries are similar to us. They all have families and lives worth living. For the kids, there are no things as monsters; the things outside are people. That means that there are many more friends to play with. For the adults today, I am in charge; my father died due to his own mistakes. All I am wishing for is that you all should accept this dramatic change. I am proud to say that I am part of the first generation to create change!! Long live Lara!!!" 

"New friends? No monsters? Yay! A small girl broke the silence.

"If that is what the queen wants, then what are we to challenge her word!!" The people united to chant.

"Nala!! Nala!! Long live our beautiful queen!!! Long live Nala!!!" The crowd breaks into a chant of Nala.

"Everyone, I love you all so much. Thank you for being the best people in the world!!" Nala, with tears in her eyes, raises her hand for her people. 

Note watched with happiness from this development. He finally saw a happy ending; everything he went through seemed to pay off.

Note felt the pull once again, but before he left, he heard.

"Long live Note!!" Nala screamed before going inside her mansion.

Note now in the room I could only feel so many emotions inside of him. The amount of happiness was too much for Note. A point from the star began to glow, changing its blue color to a lavender color. Notes emotions were put at an abrupt end; he was paying close attention to the change.

One-fifth of the star was a new color. Note felt a surge of lavender color streams leaving his body and entering the top point of the star. Note became a new person as if his entire persona was left in that one top point of the star.

Note's new persona was ink. The true note was sealed off in the top point of the star. Note now as ink was teleported into a new star. The star was the same size as the star that entered him Nala, but instead of a green color, it was a dark purple color. 

Ink was very surprised to see the star; feeling the pull, he tried resisting but was overwhelmed by the power of the pull.
