Chapter 1: The new life
Alice sat down on the beach, her hand playing in the sand, making diffrent types of drawings. She looked out at the never-ending sea, it was so beautiful. The waves gently lapped at Alice's feet, the water warm as the sun beamed down at the shining sea, the beam swept over Alice's face, dazzling her bright blue eyes. Her dark her swished in the breeze, I smile emerged onto her face as she saw her sister, Stephanie, walking up to her. Alice got up and brushed the sand off her one-piece outfit, Stephanie opened her arms and Alice rushed into them, embracing each other. Stephanie let go only to hold her by arms lenght.
"You wear that alot, just because black and cute doesn't mean you have to wear it 24/7" Alice laughed and looked at the sea, that wasn't the reason why she wore it i wear it because you gave it to me. Stephanie looked at Alice,
"I'm going away" she whispered. Alice looked at her sister, disbelif filled her eyes,
"Again?! You only just came back five days ago!" Stephanie looked at Alice now pleading,
"I have to, it's part of my job, and you're thirteen, you can look after yourself!" Alice shoved her sister away,
"Your job! It's always your job and not your family! I bet your going with your boyfriend Skulduggery aswell!" Stephanie grabbed onto Alices hand,
"Skulduggery isn't my boyfriend! You know I love you, mum and dad, but I have to do my job! You would understand if you knew the truth!" Alice turned around and started marching away from her sister, Stephanie caught up and walked beside her,Alice yelled at Stephanie
"And why don't I understand? I don't understand because you won't tell me! Why don't you trust me?!" Alice sat on the floor and curled up into a ball, Stephanie started talking in a soothing voice,
"I do trust you-" Alice cut her off,
"No you don't, or else you'd tell me." Alice buried her face into her hands and sobbed soundless tears,
"I'm not telling you for your saftey" Alice snorted,
"No hone-" there was a crash to Alices right and she looked up in time to see a wooden floor-board hurling towards her,ALice rolled forward to avoid it then stood up,
"Alice stay there!" Stephanie called out, running head first into the chaos, fire started burning and people were getting out of cars, running away in a opposite direction of the terror. A man with dark hair and a scar slashed through his face stood infront of Alice, Alice looked up into his eyes to see a endless corridor to his cold soul, the eyes were black and narrowed in hatred. He held out a hand towards Alice and spoke in a smooth voice,
"Come." Alice reached for the mans hand until she heard a shout, and a figure comming out of the smoke, it was her sister. Stephanies black whipped across her face as she stared at the man,
"Don't do it!" Stephanie started running towards them, but Alice already took the mans hand, he picked her up until she was saftley on his back, Stephanie reached out to grab Alice, but her hand closed around nothing but thin air...
