The Hierophant-

More Than Meets the Eye

Chapter 7

"..." talking

'...' thinking

The guy looked at them and then stopped on Kamila again, facing her calmly. "There's one more clue that the judge would love to hear."

"Which is?"

"You are the witch from 1000 years ago." He said calmly, confidently.

Air seemed to have stopped circulating around them, the guy and Kamila just looked at each other. The Blade Breakers looked back and forth between them. Unconsciously, Kenny grabbed onto his laptop tighter, looking at this scene in front of him.

A wind blew over and lifted up Kamila's long black hair, she looked at the guy in front of her coldly, her hands, which are in her pockets, cluntched together tightly. A corner of her lips turned up in a smirk, Jana looked at her, wanting to say something, but caught her breath.

As much as she doesn't believe in ghosts and other super natural beings with super natural powers, somehow, Kamila really did look like a witch. Just now, she looks unhuman... she looks... devilish... a dark aura seemed to have covered her. Jana looked at Kamila confused, is this the same girl that she befriended with, is this the same girl that had saved Kai from that bear and saved them from Diego when they first met. Is this the girl that she really likes and wants to get to know better?

Kamila snorted and tossed her hair back, "what proof do you have?"

"You're living in this castle, aren't you?"

"Just because I live in this castle, so I must be the witch? Then what about Jana? She could be the witch as well."

"She's a foreigner."

"And you know for sure that I am not?" Kamila threw that question back at him, he opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but shut it again. She's right, he doesn't know for sure if she's just visiting or not. Kamila look at him falter, then smiled again and tilted her head.

"Let me tell you something, this house is not mine. It's my relative's... so, if you think that whomever owns this house must be the witch, then I suggest you look for my ancient ancestor's grave and maybe go ask them if they know about it or not. For, I know nothing of what you speak, and I am not the witch. Does that answer satisfy you?"

The guy moved his jaw around, wanting to say something, but nothing came out. He looked at Kamila, breathing hard, she sure is smart, playing her cards right and staying cool.

"Just you wait! I will catch you in action someday!" The guy said with anger in his eyes, Kamila just smiled good naturally.

"Good luck."

With that, she moved back and closed the door in his face, the door slammed shut with a loud sound. It echoed through the entire place, no one said anything. Kamila just stood there, looking at the closed doors, she can feel everyone's eyes on her. Taking in a deep breath, she turned and faced their eyes.

"Sorry you had to see that." She started off first.

"Kamila... are you okay?" Max asked softly, that acussation was harsh.

Kamila just smiled and shrugged, shaking it off like nothing.

"Can you explain to us about this castle? What did he mean by the witch and this castle?" Ray asked curiously, Kamila sighed and leaned back onto the closed door.

"It was said that the witch lived in this castle before she was trapped by Thgil, and after that, this castle had been abandoned, no one came up here nor lived here. I'm the only one that moved in about 12-13 years ago, but it was a quiet move, no one knew much. So, when they first saw me exiting these doors, they automatically think that I'm the witch."

"That's so unfair." Kenny stated softly, Kamila just smiled.

"Then... what is your background? You said that your relative own this place, then... that must mean that they lived here before you." Kai asked, suddenly, everything seems so out of place.

Kamila looked at him, then looked down again, her dark hair covering her face.

"I'm not really sure about my family history either, because my family history extends over a long period of time. I only know that someone from a long time before me owned this place, she appearantly wrote in her journal saying that she'd like her next generations to come and live in this place, to take care of this place. The people before me wanted to come, but all went away after they heard about the history behind this castle. However, I'm different from them, very different. I like quiet places, so that's why I came here, to live on my own. As you can tell, I came from a pretty rich family, so I don't have to worry about anything from food to cloths."

She explained slowly, then a bitter smile appeared on her face as she closed her eyes. 'Liar. You're such a liar. And you're a good liar as well, making them believe everything you speak.'

No one said anything, no one knows what to say. She had already told them her life story, so she can't be the witch, but why does she feel so... not human like. Taking in a deep breath, she looked up at them again, back to her old self, as if nothing happened. She looked around starred straight into Kai's eyes.

'Do you believe me?'

'You probably don't, because you know me.'

That thought made her glance down again, but found herself looking back into his eyes again.

'Do you know me?'

'Do you really know me at all?'

"But... Kamila, don't you find that unfair? I mean, after all, they're just accusing you because you're living here. Aren't you mad that they don't understand you?" Jana asked, concerned.

Kamila looked away from Kai's eyes and shook her head at Jana.

"Not at all, I'm used to their pointings and their gasps, I'm fine this way. Do they understand me? No, they don't."

Sudden sadness appeared in her eyes, she shifted her gaze back to Kai's eyes again.

'Do you understand me?'

'Do you know me?'

'Can you tell what I'm thinking'

'Can you tell what I'm feeling?'

'You can't.'

'Or else, why can't you see that I'm in love with you?'

[Night]

Kamila's lavender eyes snapped open as she felt something moving her, touching her face. She glanced beside her and found herself starring into Diego's green eyes. Sudden alert rang through her entire body, she sat up on her bed immediately, her black sports bra covering up the right places.

Diego turned towards the windows, and Kamila followed his gaze. Flinging her blanket aside, she stood up in the darkness, adjusting to it perfectly fine. She walked over to the windows, looking outside, her movements seem so graceful in the dark. She parted the curtains a tiny bit, and looked outside, figures lurked in the backyard of the castle, looking for a way into the kitchen.

With a snort, she dropped the curtain and walked over to her closet, swinging it open, she has a sudden urge of anger boiling within her, Diego's already walking to the door gracefully. She pulled out a see through black shirt and hastily pulled it over her head and shook her head, letting the hair fall natually. She then pulled out a pair of black leather pants, low rise, tight, clinging onto her figure perfectly. She looked around her room and grabbed something off her desk, it's her jade necklace. The green shone in the dark as she fastened it around her neck, then looking ahead, she walked towards the backyard with long strodes. Her eyes shining dangerously.

[Jana's Room]

Jana sighed and flipped down her blanket, her blond hair a mess on her head, she blinked, trying to get the picture and this morning's conversation out of her mind, but having no luck what-so-ever.

'Maybe a glass of water will help me.'

With that thought in mind, she got out of bed and threw on her robe, then quickly walked towards the stairs that leads down to the ground floor. She looked around her, how come this castle is so quiet at night, too quiet.

[Outside- Backyard]

Kamila walked out of the glass door that separates the kitchen and the backyard, Diego is already facing off with some men. She walked over a bit with easy steps, her eyes scanning the crowd. That guy from the morning isn't here, but they're probably with him anyways, she crossed her arms in front of her chest and tilted her head.

"Can I help you?"

The guys just looked at her and said nothing, they are well trained.

"Well... if you can't speak, then maybe I can help you."

With that, her eyes widened, wind started blowing around, tree branches snapped off and hit the guys over and over again. The leafs combined together like a whip and hit their body. Kamila's hair flew around her, Diego just sneared at them.

[Kitchen]

Jana shivered and pulled the robe closer to her as she entered the kitchen, she has to talk to Kamila about the air condition tomorrow. Walking to the over sized fridge, she opened it up and grabbed a bottle of water. Then shutting it gently, she turned and pulled out a glass, and poured half of it. Then she raised the glass to her lips, wanting to take a sip, but a loud cry startled her. She turned and looked towards the backyard, in the darkness, she can only make out outlines of people. With a frown, she lowered the glass and walked to the double french door, and found it open.

'So, that's where the wind is coming from.'

She then walked outside as well, wind whipped her immediately, but she proceed on.

Kamila raised a hand, the guys flew up into the sky, twirling around and around, then tightening her hand, they were thrown onto the ground, bones cracking along the way. Then with a frown, they were lifted up again in a circle, and she touched her hands together, suddenly the men shattered into ice like pieces and disappeared, the backyard is back to normal again.

Kamila slowly breathed out and lowered her hand, everything stopped, it's back to normal again. She closed her eyes, taking in deep breaths, to calm herself down.

Suddenly, a loud shattering sound woke her up, she snapped open her eyes and turned around quickly. She came face to face with a wide eyed Jana, whom is just looking at her. The glass of water that was in her hand had dropped onto the ground, Kamila just looked at her, waiting for her reaction.

Jana blinked and then blinked, then slowly everything sank in, she just saw Kamila kill a group of guys using her 'powers'. Her eyes shown fear as panic rose in her heart, her mouth opened for a scream......

TBC....
