Chapter 3: Gifts that aren't meant to be stolen
A tall, black haired man stood clutching a knife in one hand and Lauriena in the other. He was the sort of man who was dangerous, the kind when you walked past them on the street you shuddered and hoped they wouldn't rob you.
"Don't say a word" said the stranger in a voice both deep and rough.
Lauriena looked around for some kind of help. No one was there; no one but her and the man and her uncle in the next room, if she could only get his attention somehow.
"Give it to me!" he whispered into her ear harshly with a murderous tone.
Lauriena spoke rather loudly saying, "give you what?"
"I thought I told you NOT TO TALK!!!!" he whispered the last words with such intensity that he brought the knife to Lauriena's throat as an automatic reaction. The blade shimmered in the light of the only light source in the room; the light reflected onto the dirt wall where it was absorbed.
Lauriena's opened her mouth to retort but decided better of it remembering the knife threatening her existence. She thought she looked very much like a fish when she did this.
"Give it to me or I'll kill you"
"You won't get what you want that way" she was doing her best to remain calm as if to challenge the source; but failing miserably on the inside.
"Oh really?" a smirk came to his face, "I can do this the easy way or the hard way: I can have u give them to me.ALIVE or I can kill you and get them that way" he answered shattering any hope of Lauriena's attempt of 'challenging the source'. "And I have no problem killing you" he finished with an evil grin.
Lauriena kept as calm and collected as possible and acquired the courage to say," Then why haven't you killed me yet?"
The man stood for a moment in thought and grimaced. Lauriena took this moment to her advantage by stomping on the mans foot and then pushing his arm away and escaping from his grasp.
"HHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELL------" it was supposed to be help but it was cut short by an excruciating pain in her stomach; he had stabbed her. Her clothes became instantly soaked with the red of blood; she looked down at the wound and covered it with her hands in a hopeless attempt to keep the blood from coming out of her. No sooner had she done this that the man kicked the back of her knees, which instantly gave in.
"you had to choose the hard way didn't you?" He beganto chant in strange languages.
"Mobilius giows en me" over and over the man chanted those words.
Lauriena could feel herself being drained of blood, her whole body was giving out on her. She withered to the ground like a flower that had been deprived of water.
"Mobilius giows en me, mobilius giows en me" the man's eys turned red and rolled back into his head as he was lifted from the ground by an unknown force. "Mobilius giows en me" he paused, "I summon from thee to me" his voice thundered throughout her room.
Now something else was leaving Lauriena's body.her gift. Then Lauriena remembered that she could use her gifts. She shut her eyes and concentrated, nothing happened. 'COME ON WORK' she pleaded with herself as the puddle of red liquid on the ground grew larger. The tension was rising and she could feel her gift being taken away from her; then it happened. Her fingers tingled, her head ached, and then the man disappeared.
"what in the name of Je---" Lauriena's uncle had burst through the door and rushed to her side, seeing that her blood was making a puddle the size of Lauriena herself.
"Lauriena.SPEAK TO ME"
"im fine .honestly it doesn't even hurt anymore. Im -" her voice faded away and her eyes closed and the puddle of blood grew ever larger.
