Chapter 8:

Best Friends

I am the heroine


The teachers brought out something they termed as "DDs". While asked by Stella they said it's that depression virus. The test depression virus , for the 7 boys to practice. Ultimately they need to slowly wipe this out from the world. This just a practice. Stella while drinking strawberry milkshake and a bar of chocolate was watching their match against the DDs while thinking about everything. Everything feels so magical and it feels like she is in a dream. After that breakup she always thought of herself big but there was still a piece in her heart which didn't really believe in herself, and didn't believe she is powerful and she is special . But, though this whole thing was creepy, here she is considered someone special, who will fight against DDs. She always wanted to do something for the world. This was it for her. She was looking carefully at their match. "I hope everything goes well", she said to herself. The best among them was Tom. Though all the boys had separate quirks, all of them had an invisible sword, they all had the power to wipe out the virus physically, but for that they just had to imagine it visually closing their eyes. They could also see the virus. Stella also had the power to see the virus. Tom was the top rookie among all. He manipulated the viruses in such a way and slashed them very easily. Jake on the other hand was kinda bored at this. He didn't have much of a wish to wipe out viruses, because he believed in the beauty of darkness as well. Sam was the one enjoying it the most. "I shouldn't just sit here , right?", Stella said to herself. "I should at least motivate them in some ways. Ever since I came here, though it's just been a few days, I feel so connected to them. I don't even see them as an idol now. They feel more like me. Honestly, I get along with them more than the world I used to live in. Though I don't know how this all happened...I guess I don't need to know now because I am liking it", Stella said to herself. Something rushed through her. She stood up from her bench, "Guys you can do it!!!! ". Jake felt a rush of excitement and motivation on him and wasn't bored anymore. Same for the others. They seemed more of an expert in killing DDs then before. 

After the training, everyone came back home. Everyone sat down round a table to discuss about the day. Ron Rowl  said, "Did you guys feel it? We suddenly were so good at it. Don't you think?" Tom for some reasons looked down and smiled. Jake felt something too but didn't tell it. He was looking at Stella. When, Stella looked at him, he looked away. Stella wanted to really talk more with all of them, "Guys...I know that you won't believe me if I say who you were in your previous world, so can I ask you a number of questions?". James smiled telling her to go on. Stella said, "Why do you guys look so young, as if you are 16 to 22?" Rowl laughed. "Because we actually are?" James smiled and said, "and the first day, you kissed a 15 years old boy hahahahaha. Where is the police? " Jake awkwardly looked at him pinching him secretly to shut up. Stella blushed and awkwardly said, "I-I thought he was 25 or something......".Stella thought to herself, "Strange, in our world he is 25...." Jake with a grin on his teeth said, "Sissy, do I look old to you?? You look older like a 55 year old  to me bwahahaahha." Stella clenched her fists and was thinking of killing him ( not literally). "You idiot, come here. If I am older you should respect me" In this way almost all the time they went to do trainings, she and Jake would have these Tom and Jerry fights. Tom and James was her best friend and Rowl was like a big brother to her. As she used to live with them she was closer to them compared to the rest. The other room not only contained Sam , Jojo and Peter but also two people who for some reasons always used to wear masks. Weeks passed like this. One day when they were all talking in the room, Jake revealed something shocking...
