Season 1: Hell Games: Chapter 5: This is my family

It was a Saturday today. The first thing Eptosi did when he woke up was to look at his phone and see that it was 8 in the morning. He glanced at his room and saw that Alexis and Dicou were still sleeping.

' I will be waking them at 9 o'clock. Ms. Monica and Angel are surely awake by now. ' He thought to myself. So He headed downstairs to greet them.

***

" Good morning Eptosi. It's a pleasure to see you wake up first. " Angel chuckled. Yesterday it was very strange for her to see Eptosi wake up so late, so she joked about it.

" Yeah, so where is Ms. Monica? Shouldn't she be awake by now? " He asked. Ms. Monica was always the first to wake up, so the fact that she wasn't in the kitchen preparing breakfast is surprising. It wasn't normal.

" She drove to the supermarket, so you will help me with breakfast, right? " Angel replied. After what she said. They proceeded to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

***

Eptosi helped her make breakfast. Usually, she assists Monica with Lisa. Lisa, however, was still asleep due to yesterday's fight.

" So how did you find the fight, Angel? " He asked. He wanted to hear her opinion of yesterday's battle.

" It was a good fight, Lisa really gave her all but what can she do? She was fighting Dicou. " She sighed. If it were anyone of our age other than Eptosi, Dicou, and Alexis, she wouldn't have lost. Angel might win against her because she has a troublesome power.

" I'm also proud of her. Luckily Dicou respected the rules. If he didn't I would have beaten him with Alexis. " He muttered. It was a wonder that he could control himself to not use that.

" Do you think you can still beat Lisa? Angel " He called her out. Eptosi wanted to know if she was still confident in beating her. The power of Angel was mainly aimed at ranged combat rather than close combat. Also because of her wings, Lisa couldn't touch her. So Angel just sniped her down.

" She's more powerful than me but I'll always have the advantage. If she can't unlock 'that' like the three of you, she will never be able to beat me. Even Dicou has to use 'that' to defeat me because as long as I can fly he can't catch me. Not the same for you and Alexis though. " Angel replied grinningly. It was true. But the problem is that the battle will be too long and boring to watch.

" Alexis can easily shoot you down while you can't escape my grasp " He chuckled. Neither of the girls, even if they teamed up, could beat me, Alexis or Dicou.

***

It was nine o'clock, I had to wake up those two and Lisa.

" Time to wake up boys " Eptosi murmured.

" Let me sleep 30 minutes more, please. " Alexis responded. He wanted to sleep more.

" Same. " Dicou sighed.

" If you guys don't wake up now, there will be no food anymore. You will have to eat what Lisa is going to cook. " As soon as he said that. Alexis and Dicou woke up. You could see in their eyes that they were scared. It was the only thing that could beat them.

" Dicou, what are you waiting for? " Alexis said as he rushed downstairs as soon as possible.

" Coming!" Dicou replied. He felt the same urge as Alexis.

***

Everyone was eating now. Be it Lisa and the four kids that didn't wake up. Everyone was eating right now.

" Kyle, don't take another one. " One of the three small girls said. She had long blonde hair and a cute face. Kyle was trying to sneak another donut that Ms. Monica bought but got caught by her.

" How did you see that Anna?" Kyle squealed. Kyle can accelerate his limbs to a certain speed using his power [Body: Partial: Limbs superspeed]. But Anna's power [ Body: Senses: Slowed view] can slow down her view so she is always able to see him even if he uses his power.

" That's mine, Kyle. " Lisa stuttered.

" Sorry, Lisa. " Kyle responded. Gluttony just overwhelmed him.

" Why are you so grumpy today Lisa? Still mad that you lost to Dicou. " Alexis chuckled. He wanted to tease her. As soon as he said that They all glared at him with a mean looks. They called him out.

" Alexis, shut up. " He was talking a bit too much.

" Alexis you're really mean. " The little girl puffed. She had brown hair with blue eyes and big cheeks that made you want to squeeze them every time.

" Sorry, Lisa and Mia. " Alexis apologized. Mia the little girl just finished eating with Kyle, Anna, and Emilie. She thought of something to do after eating breakfast as suddenly someone talked to her.

" Mia, I already know what you're thinking, but shouldn't we help Angel and Lisa clean everything we used to make breakfast? " Emilie implied. They had to help, of course.

" What do you mean Emilie? Only girls clean up. " Kyle muttered. After he said that, he felt two hands stomping his head.

" Don't be sexist Kyle. " Anna and Emilie who hit him stuttered it simultaneously. They didn't like Kyle's comment even if it was just a joke.

" Okay, sorry. " After he apologized, they all began to clean up and helped Angel to do the kitchen.

***

Everyone had finished what they had to do. The kids left to play in the garden while the older ones headed to their rooms but still could see the little ones from the window if anything happened. The older ones must always keep a watch on their younger siblings.

In their room, the 2 older girls Lisa and Angel were talking to each other.

" Angel, when are you gonna confess your feelings to Eptosi? " Lisa asked grinningly. Everyone except Eptosi knew it. Sometimes it was so obvious that Alexis and Dicou laughed with her.

"What are you saying, Eptosi and me?" Angel stuttered. Right now she was blushing. She didn't want to believe what she just heard.

" C'mon, everyone knows you're in love with him. He's also in love with you, right?" Lisa muttered. It was true, they had feelings but never confessed them to each other. Honestly, it was annoying to see them blush sometimes. Alexis was so fed up with it that he even said one time. " Why don't you kiss already? "

" You're spouting nonsense. I see him like a brother. " Angel replied to Lisa. Her face was as red as a tomato. She just wanted to escape this conversation.

" Please stop saying cap right now. Can you just accept it? ", Lisa murmured in an annoyed tone. Angel never lied except on this subject.

" You can't understand Lisa. " Angel responded. She has already spoken to Eptosi and made a promise.

'You won't break it, Eptosi, right?' ' She thought.

They continue to talk about it and other subjects.

***

In the boy's room, they had a similar talk.

" Eptosi when are you gonna kiss Angel? " Alexis asked jokingly. But was still serious. He wanted to know if Eptosi ignored her or if he was stupid.

" Alexis, what are you saying? " He replied

"Don't act like you didn't hear it. " Dicou joined the conversation with a question. I always ignored them when they were talking about that. For me, they were just useless mumbling.

" Confess to her right now and then kiss her. Lisa will leave the room for the two of you if you know what I mean. " Alexis chuckled. He was thinking about weird stuff again.

" Stop thinking overboard Alexis. Eptosi you know how you can ask her out, right? Alexis. " Dicou muttered. Alexis was always talking about girls and stuff like that.

" I'm just a bachelor. Looking for a partner. " Alexis sang.

" Someone who knows how to ride. Without even falling off. " Dicou followed. Those two looked at me like they wanted me to finish the song. ' C'mon Eptosi ' He could read their thoughts for this moment.

" Gotta be compatible. Take me to my limits. " He had to do it. Then they all finish the verse together.

" Girl when I break you off. I promise that you won't want to get off. " They all laughed at each other. Despite the many personalities they have here, there is one thing they all have in common. As one family, they all accept one another. They will never give up on one another.

' What can I say? This is my family '

Sunday flew by like a flash, and it was already Monday. Eptosi, Alexis, Dicou, Angel and Lisa were all walking together to school.

" Man, I really wanted to sleep longer Eptosi. Why did you wake me up? " Alexis sighed. He was still a little sleepy.

" You know today is an important day, right? " He responded. Today we were finally gonna learn something new at school.

" Molungé, right? All the ups and downs of the categories and types of the powers. " Angel murmured. She was excited to hear the information that was never leaked onto the internet.

" Let's go and see what they're gonna talk about. " Dicou and Lisa muttered. They always had the most energy among all of us.

After the bell rang we all headed to our classrooms.

***

Everyone in the class sat down as we all looked at Ms. Taylor. She had a black skirt and a white blouse that highlighted her whole upper body.

"Hello everyone. Today, we are gonna talk about Molungé. As all of you know, there are six categories of Molungé, and they all have three types. However, before we discuss the types and categories, let me tell you about its history. " They were finally about to learn more about this.
