It`s meee!
Zhalia`s POV
Dante, Sophie, Lok and I were walking through Jersey on a mission. Den was moved to another team so Dante joined us again.
"What are we looking for again?" Lok asked.
"The Organization attacked somewhere around here." Dante said. "We need to find out where and why." We walked a litte further when I heared something. Usualy I would ignore it, but something drew me twards it.
"Do you hear that?" I asked.
"I`m sensing a strong power." Sophie said.
"Where`s it coming from?" Dante asked. Sophie led us to an alley not far from where we were. As we got closer the sound got stronger. When we reached our destination, I saw a young girl crying. She looked about fourteen. Her platnum blonde hair spilled over her face like a curtain. The two guys didn`t think much of it. But something felt wrong about this. We ducked behind a corner so we wouldn`t be seen.
"This is what was letting of a strong power?" Lok asked in a hushed tone.
"Yes." Sophie said. Matching his tone.
"It`s just a little girl."
"I don`t think so." I said.
"What do you mean?" Dante asked.
"I heared the crying and something didn`t feel right. I was going to ignore it but I felt drawn to it. I thought it was just me untill Sophie sensed the power."
"She`s letting off strong magical energy." Sophie said.
"We need to check this out." Dante said.
"I`ll go." I said. I stepped out of the shadows and slowly walked twards her. I knelt down beside her and touched her shoulder, making her flinch. She looked up. Staring at me with wide creulain (I think thats how you spell it) eyes. The strange part about them was they were completely blue no pupils or white. "Are you okay?"
"Get away from me." She said. Panic rising in her voice.
"I`m not going to hurt you."
"You have the necklaces. Like them." She looked at the others and backed away. Shaking with fear. My hand found my Garion amulet.
"I`ll take it off. Okay?" I unclasped the necklace and put it in my holder. The others did the same. "We woun`t hurt you. Can you tell us your name?"
"Aria. Aria Lesley."
"Why are you scared of the necklaces?"
"The men. The men in suits. They broke into my house. They used the monsters in the necklaces to... to kill my family." I gave Dante a worried look. "They wanted something from me."
"What did they want?" Sophie asked, kneeling down beside her.
"Something on my laptop." Further inspection sowed she had a backpack. Proably containing said laptop. "I grabbed the bag as fast as I could and grabbed some money and my phone as I ran out the door. I have nowhere to go. They killed the only family I have."
"You don`t have any grandparents to go to?" I asked. I really felt horrible for her. She was in the same possition as Den and I were.
"They`re all dead. My parents don`t have any siblings, so no aunts or uncles to go to either." She started to sob into her knees again.
"It`s okay." Sophie said. "You`re safe now."
"We can take you somewhere safe." Lok offered.
"Who... who are you?" Aria asked.
"I`m Zhalia." I said. "This is Sophie, Lok and Dante."
"So you`re not like those people who attacked my family?"
"No," Dante said. "I can promise you we`re not."
"Come with us." I said. "We`ll make sure you`re safe." I stood up and pulled her with me. She wiped a few stray tears away.
"Thank you." She said. Her eyes went from the strange blue. They looked normal. With pupils and the white. But they were like rainbows. They had yellow, red, blue, green and purple. I decided not to ask her about it untill everything was worked out.
We led her back to the car and decided to bring her back to the safe house. Sophie and I sat in the back with Aria while Dante drove and Lok sat up front in the passenger seat. During the ride she didn`t speak. She seemed to be in another world. I noticed her eyes changed color again. This time purple. We got to the safehouse and it took a while to get her out of her state. She looked at me suprized. Her eyes that rainbow color again.
"Come on." I said. "We`re here." She grabbed her bag and followed us into the safe house.
"I felt it again." Sophie said to me. "In the car. I felt the power coming off her. It was different this time though."
"Did you notice her eyes?" I asked. "When we found her they were completely blue. There was no other color anywhere. No whites or pupils. Then they changed. They had white and pupils. But the irises were raibow. And in the car they were completly purple."
"Maybe it has something to do with the powers I`m sensing."
"What are you gonna do with me?" Aria asked suddenly.
"Keep you safe." I said. Meeting her rainbow eyes.
