7 years passed,
Zia grew into a beautiful woman. Long hair with her round black eyes clearly visible with her pure white skin.
Along with Zia, the garena also increased in size.
But the powers didn't get equal.
Zia stopped at the familiar and since then not a single bit of her power got increased nor exhibited.
Zia, Amber, Nora, and Noah, on the word of Zia's interests, stayed in the school to do research on the "wall of death"
In these past 7 years, Zia found that her mother is not an accidental death.
No matter in what way she started her research regarding this matter, it always ended up near the wall of death. That made her extremely interested in it, and she started researching it.
Noah as always to protect Zia rejected the post of a social security officer in the town.
Amber, who has no hope of ever returning to her home decided to follow Zia in her research while forming her own life.
While coming to Nora, she never revealed her reason for staying back with Zia and Amber to do research purposes. Although Zia was concerned at first, time faded away, looking at how much she is enjoying the research.
For the last two years, Zia collected a lot of information concerning the line of death. Mr. Harper who is a history lecturer gave her a tip of his knowledge about the wall of death.
While also researching concerning her mother's death, the reasons for a tiger to kill her mother might be two
1) Either the tiger was hypnotized
Although many found this reason as dumb. Zia back in her village always heard from a kid who bullied her that his father is a great hypnotist.
Animal or human, anything and everything can be hypnotized by him.
By getting that in her mind, "there might be others who can do that too" is what she thought and started searching for them.
While
2) Might be the work of a shape-shifter.
Shape-shifters are high in demand for almost 20 years now from when a shape-shifter defeated a powerful monster, absorbing its image and also its power.
Shape-shifters work for money.
But Althea is like the strongest warrior woman, who never lost a fight till then.
Then the person who can kill her has to be someone who is more powerful than her …someone like her father.
That's when she started researching her father. But always the only information found about him was he was the strongest MANA user and his name is Evan.
A mysterious person who disappeared just after Zia was born. Being her power sealed and Althea losing her power, at the same time interlinked in her mind.
"If the answer is within her or something related to her. What is it?"
"Why can't she talk?"
"Why did her mother lose her MANA?"
"Why can't she use her power?"
There are many questions in her mind, but everything always leads to a Wall of death.
No matter the shape-shifters or the hypnotist.
Her father and mother were once got very curious about the wall of death.
Everyone got somehow involved with it. Might be a person's influence of their own mind's interest.
Evan who is the strongest led the team and Althea who can also use the healing magic helped them in a fight and also as a doctor.
"These are the things we obtained till now," Noah said sorting the papers on the table
Noah is now a handsome man with wavy black hair, brown eyes, muscle-fit body with 4 times exercise in a week and a proper diet …he looks just like a bodybuilder
"We have much information, but everything seems to miss something like two or three incidents have a link, but the others have a different story again," Amber said eating a chocolate
Amber made a boy cut. Completely turning herself into a boyish girl. She cut her hair very low and started wearing clothes according to her preference, which she couldn't do for many years fearing her family.
"No wonder these are histories," Nora said yawning
"Zia, what is the thing exactly you want to find? We have been looking for things for the past 2 years and the only information we found is this! …we still have to meet the shape-shifters and any person who knows about your father! " Nora asked
Nora's body grew in many aspects in a perfect form.
Noah who has a secret crush on her always picks on her like a small kid, hiding his intentions completely.
Zia took her book and wrote
"I want to know who killed my mother …even if it is my father... I have to find"
"I have a question again ...even, if your father is the killer, what is the reason for a husband to kill his wife after leaving her with the child for 10 years alone?"
"Nora, do you have the power to know past and future?" Noah asked interrupting
"No?" she replied doubtfully
"then why the hell are you speaking like a judge? If we need answers we have to search" he said angrily
"you shut up I am not talking to you," Nora said angrily
"Me too. I am talking to a wall," he said, looking at her up and down.
"Well me too... I am just talking to a dog," Nora said angrily
"shut up"
"you shut up" Nora shouted.
"Ahh ...it started again," Amber said slowly sipping her cup of coffee
Zia chuckled
"Why do you always fight with me" Nora shouted angrily.
"Oh stop it you both" Amber shouted, slamming her coffee cup on the table
They both sat down silently. After a few minutes of silence.
"Right it's your birthday tomorrow right?" Nora said excitedly.
" Tomorrow is your birthday?" Noah asked Amber
she nodded uninterested
"let's go shopping then," Nora said very excitedly
"Not interested" Amber spoke, ignoring her.
"No way …we are going shopping and that's it. No arguments"
Zia nodded excitedly
They both are looking at Amber with glowing eyes
*sigh*
"Okay," Amber said with no choice.
