PARADISE-REGAINED.
"Then try it, and I believe that it will not fail, just try" Zara said as Stella nods at her.
"But what could have killed her?" Zara asked as Stella looks at Jade's corpse on the sick bed once again.
"After I examined her and discovered that she was raped and strangled to death, she was bleeding all over" Stella replied as Zara approached Jade and spread her feet and gazes at her closely.
"Well, I don't care what happened to her, all I know is that you must bring her back to life, she's needed right now, very very needed" Zara said.
"Okay, Mistress, but could you please give me some space? as soon as I am done I will let you know" Stella said as Zara stares at her with a none happy look on her face.
"I don't understand why I have to give you space? am disturbing you?" Zara asked as Stella waves her head.
"No... No, that is not what I am trying to say" Stella responded.
"Then what are you saying?" Zara asked.
"It is just that your presence always frightens me while working because I will always be thinking of a way to do it that wouldn't annoy you"
"And that you will make me do my job restlessly and I might make some mistake during this time, Mistress, I would be happy if you can just do me a favour and leave" Dr. Stella said while Zara gazes at her continuously.
"I think she's right, Mistress, she needs some space to do her work, remember that this requires her full concentration, she is not to be distracted by any means" Scar said as Zara looks at him for a few seconds and nodded.
Then left and so did Scar and it was just remaining Olivia and Stella inside the room.
"So how do you intend to bring her back to life" Olivia asked as Stella stares at her and waves her head.
"I don't know... I just have to try my best" Stella responded and Olivia nodded at her.
"I believe in your faith" Olivia said as Stella nods at her with smiles.

FEW MINUTES LATER.
Zara and Scar was outside the room eagerly waiting for news as Zara was walking up and down.
And just in the door opened and Stella stepped out of the room with Olivia as Zara and Scar's eyes flashed on them like a torchlight.
Stella looks steadily at Zara and they looks closely to each other waiting for the first person to speak, it was more like she was challenging her Mistress.
"Umm... I am not certain about her, it has two options, she maybe able to wake in the next few minutes or die and there will be nothing like life remaining in her" Stella said as Zara placed her hand on her forehead and sighed.
"Ow... okay, you have done well Stella, just go and attend to others while we wait to know what her fate has to say" Zara said as Stella bows at her.
"Thank you, Mistress" she said while Scar and Zara left to the room immediately and then Favour looks at Olivia who was staring at her with a strange look on her face.
"Olivia are you okay, I mean what's that look for?" Stella asked as Olivia approached her and looks into her eyes as she waves her head.
"Stella, you should know that you are getting yourself in danger by trying to play with her feelings, you should have told her the truth instead of lying" Olivia whispered to her.
While Stella shrugged her shoulders "Come on Olivia I didn't lie to her? I told her..." Stella was still saying and Olivia interrupted.
"You didn't even know what you were working on, I watched you and your reaction! you didn't know what you did, you only mixed up some medicine and injects it in her body" Olivia said as Stella breaths out.
"Then what would you have me do if you are in my shoes? she's making it under must and I don't know what else to do"
"I just mixed up some drugs and I felt like it's capable of healing hearts and that's all, you know I might still get into trouble, If..."
"If I should just step out and tell Mistress that I can't bring her back to life..." Stella was still saying until Olivia interrupted.
"It's alright Stella, you did what you felt it was right and I equally thinks that's the right thing to do" Olivia said.
"Stella!" Scar's voice sounded from her back and she looks back being so frightened as she thought that Zara has been annoyed but the case comes deferent.
"You need to see this" Scar said as Olivia and Stella stares at each other and Olivia smiled at her.
"Maybe be you did it!" Olivia said while Stella smiles at her happily.
"But how could you be so certain?" Stella asked as she rushed in and Olivia ran after her as well and getting inside they discovered that Jade has started breathing like a normal human again.
"You did it Stella, I'm owing you a great debt, just think about wherever you want then come back to me and make a wish and I promise you that I will grant it" Zara said as Stella gazes at Olivia and they smiled at each other.
"Thank you, Mistress, it's a pleasure" Stella responded.
"Ah..." Jade groaned as she changes her posture making Stella to smile more then Zara approached her.
After Jade changed her posture it wasn't up to 2 seconds and she changed her posture again and slowly her eyes balls began moving till she finally opens her eyes.
Zara and every other person in there was watching her as Zara was the only one that stepped closer to her.
While Jade sits up from the sick bed and looks around with a misunderstandable look on her face.
Though her her vision was still blurred as she wasn't seeing everyone clearly so people were like shadow to her.
Then she finally cleaned up her eyes and was able to see Zara who was the closest person to her and she looked around and saw the others looking at her.
"Am sorry but who are you?" She asked as Zara approached her but she moves backwards in fear and Zara silently sat besides her.
It seems like she has forgotten everything about herself and cannot remember anything.
"Hey, it's alright, everything is fine now, I'm not going to hurt you, okay?" Zara said as Jade continues looking at her as she is still yet to remember herself.
"Am just here to ask you a few questions, and once you answer then I have no business with you again" Zara asked as Jade breathes out and looks around again.
"So what question is that?" Jade asked Zara holds her hand gently.
"Am looking for someone, by the name David, have you heard about that name before? does it ring a bell to you?" Zara asked and it was more like Jade remembered herself that moment as she began panting.
"David..?? excuse me where I am!!??" She screamed as examines under her skirt and discovered that there was nothing there to see.
"Hey you need to calm down okay...? we are not the bad guys, we saved you because we can help you" Zara said but Jade jumped down from the bed immediately.
"Somebody please tell me how long I have been here, how long!??" Jade shouted as tears began to steam out of her eyes making Scar and Zara to exchange eye contact wondering why she's behaving strange.
"Umm... well you have been here for as long as it took for you to recover" Zara replied as Jade pushed Olivia who was standing on the entrance away and began to run.
Though she can't run well, she was still feeling the pain of being raped but she was managing and struggling to put up with herself.
Scar chased her and grabs her down "No! get away from!!! leave me alone!!" Jade shouted as Zara approaches.
"Don't you understand what it means that we are trying to help you!?" Zara yelled at her but Jade was never ready to listen.
"No! I don't need your help!! Please get away from me, it's not about me but it's about my sister, I need to find her now or else I will lose her" Jade said with tears.
"Alright!! you just have to calm down and tell us what happened!!" Zara replied with a loud voice as Jade waves her head in tears.
"No, I don't have time for that, the more I waste time explaining the more my sister is getting closer to her death, please I need to get to her as soon as possible! she's the only thing I have left on Earth" Jade said as Zara looks held her hands.
"Tell me, where is your sister?" Zara asked.
"Amelia's Sanctuary, she said I must bring David to him, or else she will kill my little sister the way she killed my mum" Jade said as Zara stares at Scar dangerously.
"That bastard lied to you! she is the one that came after David and lied!" Zara said with an angered voice as she fixed her gaze on Scar.
"Scar, go to Amelia's Sanctuary, bring her sister back and I want Amelia dead after she tells you where she kept David" Zara ordered as Scar bows for her.
"Yes, Mistress" Scar said as he turns to leave but Jade interrupted.
"No! there is no way he is leave here without me, it's my sister!! I have to go with her" Jade said and Scar looks at Zara who nodded her head at him.
"Take her with you and do all you can to protect her" Zara said as Jade looks at her with tears.
"Thank you, you must have seemed to be the most brutal Mistress in the Darklands but you are doing it for good, protecting the people you love"
"You are one of a kind, you are just different from the others, thank you, Mistress" Jade said as Zara nods at her and so she joined Scar on the vehicle and they left to Amelia's Sanctuary.

AMELIA'S SANCTUARY.
Her guards are still in the compound looking after the Sanctuary for her and they will continue working till the day she will be back, either her or her daughter's, any of them is entitled to take control.
Just in Scar arrived with his Vehicle and Jade jumped out of the car running to the Sanctuary but held on when she discovered a kid's head hanged on a wood outside besides the gate and she trembles in fear as Scar was staring at her.
Then she slowly stepped closer to the head and it was her sister's head that has been cut off and hanged like that.
"Mariam...? no!!!!!! No!!!!" She screamed with a loud voice as she fell down on the ground and cries bitterly while Scar was watching, he doesn't even know what to do.
Then he approached her and tried to hold her but she pushed him away angrily as she was already exhausting on the ground.
"Hey, you are too weak to cry like this, you will die if you continue" Scar said as Jade yelled at him.
"I have no one else to live for!!! she was the only thing I have! she was the only thing I have!! and they killed her mischievously like this!??"
"Amelia deserves to pay!!" Jade screams painfully and in tears as she kept on sobbing and her heart was already beating unnatural.
"Hey!!! you need to stop!!! stop it!! hey! hey!!" Scar shouted but noticed that she has lost her breath again, girl has no one else to live for, she just have to give up, it's no friendly world to her.
