"The shadows screamed my name, but no one could hear them, for they are silent screams."
The three girls were now on their own, alone in the big town of Silverglade. Harmony has money due to the fact that she was with her mom so much here. She had enough to rent a hotel room for a month, but they had to make haste to get their room before sundown, that is when the killings usually happen. They had to try to not raise suspicion but for Amaryllis and Sage that would be hard due to the fact that they are both from the early 1800s so they weren't to sure about this realm. They tried blending in the best they could but it was harder then they expected it to be, they headed out of the alley and made their way to the nearest hotel. After they paid for the night, they would find a better less sketchy hotel in the morning, they began thinking of a plan.
"This is all messed up, but what if me and sage enrolled in high school." She had always wanted to go to a mortal school and now she had the opportunity to do so.
"That would work but how can we enroll we are both over 18." Sage pointed out
"I'm sure using a little bit of magic wouldn't hurt, just this once" she smiled and used a spell to make them look younger and made some fake ids. "There" she looked at herself then at Sage proud of herself.
"What if this doesn't work out"
"It will" Amaryllis was quite optimistic, she knew she had to stay strong and not fear the enemy, she knew she had to show her dad she could be a strong ruler. She was a little scared but she felt safe because she wasn't alone.
"Alright then tomorrow we will go enroll in school" Sage smiled, Harmony was already enrolled so she wouldn't have to and a few of the other God's kids were there, only the ones who come to earth often.
They went to bed Amaryllis couldn't sleep as easy though the shadows kept talking to her, this is the longest she's been away from her realm she got up and snuck out to go for a walk then came back a few hours later before the other two woke up. She got a shower and changed, once the girls were up they just saw her drying her hair and styling it. "Morning girls" She smiled and finished up.
Sage yawned and got out of bed "why, are you up so early? I couldn't get you up this early back in our realm."
"I just wanted a head start for today" She smiled even though she knew it was a lie.
"Uh huh" Sage rolled out of bed and got dressed for the day. They woke Harmony and just as any typical teenager she groaned but got dressed. After they were all ready they went to the school to enroll, they had some small difficulties but they managed to get enrolled. Now they had to deal with school, Amaryllis though began to get Knotted Feelings.
Tomorrow they would get their schedule but for today it was a tour and following Harmony around.
The school wasn't the best it was pretty run down, one hallways the lights flickered another had little to no light. The lockers look as though no one ever touched them, except to fight with, there was dried blood all over them. They continued down to their lockers in a slightly brighter hallway.
They got their stuff in their lockers then headed to class and it was hard since Sage and Amaryllis have never been to school. They tried as hard as they could, after a bit it was time for lunch, once again they had no clue about anything. They figured it out and sat with Harmony, she explained everything to them. They went back to class and after a few minutes someone walked in. Amaryllis felt something bad so she looked up and a girl with light blonde hair and sky blue eyes walked in. She had a walk like she had an attitude and dressed in ripped skinny jeans and a leather jacket and instantly she was recognized by Amaryllis. They glared at each other then the girl smirked and walked by her. This girl used to be her right hand person til she backstabbed her literally and emotionally. She stole her first love from her, he was a nice guy but he had eyes for another, this girl. She was the daughter of Athena, hence her rock hard attitude. Her name was Genesis, her mom wasn't around much but she was still alive.
At the end of the day the three girls left quickly, Sage and Harmony remember her well to. Genesis though stopped them in their tracks, with one sentence.
"To bad your mom isn't around anymore, she would he disappointed in you, coward". Amaryllis growled but walked away and flipped her off. They went back to the hotel and there was a letter attached to the door, the seal on it was Amaryllis's. They went inside and she opened it.
"Amaryllis, there are hunters lurking in the shadows but I would love to meet you anyways, meet me at the clock tower at dusk, alone. I've been dying to meet you. ~P~"
"That is a bad idea what if you-"
"Yes I know but if they are the killer then I have to go end them." She looked at Sage "I can defend myself" She sat on the bed, at least she hoped she could. She grabbed her cloak and got dressed and walked to the door. "If I'm not back before 9 come find me" She left and waited at the clock tower. And what she saw next made her hair stand up, and her stomach churn.
"Hello Amaryllis, did you miss me, Darling?"
