"What the hell?" he says stumbling back as the thing covers his eyes with its claws. "Zel get this thing off me!"
"Okay just remain calm remember our training."
"I'm calm, I'm calm but I would appreciate it if you could get this thing off my back."
We are surrounded by creatures that look like mini demons. They have long horns that curl at the tips and wings on their backs. Their bodies look like it's made out of ash. Their eyes are huge glowing red orbs that are bulging out of their heads.
"Alright stand still."
"Don't hit me," he shrieks. I raise my hands and aim it at the creature but Ri, keeps moving around and the thing is now laughing. Its voice is so deep and demonic for its tiny body.
What are these things?<

Going into battle with Rizor took its toll on me. When I saw my mother walk up the steps it proved all my efforts to be worth it. I could only describe that moment as a dream. A figment of my imagination showing me my deepest wants.It seems like a happy ending, but something doesn't sit right with me. I'm happy, too happy and I know there's a storm coming. I can feel it in my bones. As I stand in front of my full body mirror and look at the dress Morgan and I got from the mall yesterday. I don't feel like how I used to before. I feel different, I feel at peace. My thoughts are finally at bay and my mind is free to think frivolously.The dress I'm wearing is cut in a sweetheart neckline and is covered with silver diamantes. The train of the dress is an oceanic blue and my gloves are silver and come up to my elbows.A slight knock on my door gets me to turn around and see my mother standing there. "Wow," she says and a sing

"Move," I yell as I run towards Ri and tackle him to the ground before the ball of energy collides with him."Oof." He loses balance and falls causing me to fall on top of him. "Zel," he says in shock and then looks up at me. "You crushing my ribs," he says taking a sharp intake of air."Weakling." I stand and dust my hands off. I'm exhausted we have been at it for hours."Hey it's not my fault you way a ton," he says."Are you trying to say that I'm fat!""Oh, no I'm not trying to say anything," he says standing up."So you saying it then!"The sound of hysterical laughter gets both of our attention and we turn around to see Kyra hunched over in laughter. "You two are something," she says and bursts into laughter again."Take a break. Tonight is the night we get your mother," she says looking at me. "Your goddess," she says looking at Ri

Ri dropped me off at home after our conversation. Both of us were adamant about refusing to give in to each other's wishes so the car ride was spent in silence because there was nothing else left to say.I currently sit in my room by myself. Solitude gives me peace, it gives me time to arrange my thoughts and give myself the mental pep talk I need. The house is silent and I rest my back on the headboard as I listen to the wind whistle and stare at the curtains that move ghostly across my window revealing glimpses of a full moon.A gentle knock on my door startles me and causes me to jump out of my bed like a spooked cat. I stare at the door for a second. I was not ready to face whoever was on the opposite side. I didn't feel like getting a lecture from Klara nor was I in the mood to argue with Kyra.I reluctantly pull open the door and come face to face with the fresh air. No one was here. I took a step out of my doorway t

Focus Zelenia!" Kyra yells from across the room. We were currently in the lounge with the curtains down and the furniture pushed to the corner of the room so we had space to train.Last night when we came back from Clive's, Ri and Luke were gone. I wanted to speak to Ri again, but I guess he had enough for one day and left.Kyra takes advantage of my lack of focus and conjures up three orbs of golden light and with a swift movement of her wrist. The orbs hover in front of her waiting for her command to be set and before I can think of what to do the orbs all come hurtling towards me at once.I dodge the first two by moving out of the way just in time but the last one gets me and collides with my bare shoulder. It hurts. It hurts like hell."Argh," I groan clutching my shoulder in pain. "How can I focus when you keep hitting me with blasts of magic like that."She shrugs and the look of smu

I walk into the house and lean on the kitchen counter. Kyra shuts the door and comes to stand in front of me. I run my hand over my face as I try to arrange my thoughts of today. "What?" I question if I heard her right. "A book was written by the creator?" I repeat in shock."The book contains a spell to trap a god in his or her respective realm for all of eternity."The door bursts open getting our attention and our heads snap up."Look I don't care what kind of deal Zel made with you but it's not happening. She is just a child," Klara says emotion straining her voice."She has been on this earth for eighteen years hasn't she?" Kyra knowingly asks and Klara doesn't answer. "Didn't the mortals declare that at eighteen you are no longer a child?" Kyra furthers."Look I don't care what the 'mortals declared'," Klara mocks. "She is still a child and I'm telling you she made the wrong choice!" Klara yells

After the debate on who was the better-looking brother. Luke ended up driving to the lighthouse. "How is Anna?" Luke asks glancing at Ri from the side. Ri doesn't answer and looks out the car window. "You two used to be inseparable when we first moved here," Luke presses."That was a long time ago," Ri says abruptly."If you say so," Luke says and drops the topic.Finally, we arrive at the beach and I immediately jump out of the car. The lighthouse isn't that far from where I'm standing so I begin to walk on my own. It's warm out today. I finally reach the lighthouse and wait for the boys."Wrong lighthouse sweetheart," Luke says walking past me."What?" I ask in confusion."The one we were talking about is farther down the beach. No one goes there," he says not turning around."Urgh," I moan. I'm not an exercise kind of person.After a fe
