Chapter 3 - Xiang

I stormed out of the garden angrily. I walked back to my room and I kicked a plant potter over. I rolled my eyes and frowned. Suddenly sharp winds blew and smashed everything in my room. "Just great." Then I got the faintest scent of blood and I noticed my hand holding a piece of glass very tightly. I sadly smiled and dropped it.
I remained in my room for months and I simply stared out the window. I never bothered to clean the mess my powers made from me being so upset that they went wild for a second. Suddenly I heard a knock on the door one day but I didn't pay attention to it. The door opened and a sweet voice rang. "Xiang?" I turned and noticed Astra. I looked back at the window and sighed. "What do you want little spark?" She looked at me softly and sighed. "As much as I'm your friend this can't continue. What happened to make you do this?" I looked over and sighed. "I figured that one would've been obvious." Astra narrowed her eyes, "I don't know what is going on with you so please tell me." I looked over and sighed. "It's much of an issue anymore since I don't care about anything at all anymore." Astra tenses up and a light blast of gold light filled the room and then there was Headmistress Lightwood. I looked over and sighed. "Can you all just stay out of my business!" My powers go slightly berserk and I accidentally shoot lashes of wind everywhere and I ruined my room even more. Lightwood and Astra were covered by a cold sphere. I teared up slightly and looked away. "Please just leave me alone. I don't want anyone to see me like this right now." Lightwood lowers their shields once the wind stops and she says, "Oh honey. I am here to let you have a leave of absence for a few days, go back to Japan and cool down." I looked um and calmed down. "Why are you always so nice?" Lightwood sighed, "Because you are family, and family should always stick together and be there when they are in need." I looked down at my hand which was cut and then I looked up nod. "Lightwood I would've been happy if I ever had a mother like you." Headmistress Lightwood gently touched my hand and it heals, "I am your mother ok?" I looked up and softly smiled. "You are like one to me."
Headmistress Lightwood gently touched my hand and it heals, "I am your mother ok?" I looked back up and softly smiled. "You are like one to me." Lightwood smiles back, "That is an honor." I quickly looked up and smiled. "You have earned it long ago." Headmistress Lightwood folded her arms, "That so… well enough didalling you should be on your way Xiang." She looked over at Astra who was shoving cake into her mouth and sighed, "Astra, would you see to that Damion is preoccupied?" Astra's cake and plate disappears and she points her fork at us, "Yes ma'am!" She disappears in teal sparkles and I sighed. "I guess I should be. I still have the house in my hometown." She looked back at me and said, "I would see you on your way but I have to get back to the class I am supervising because Nova is nowhere to be found." I looked away and nod quietly. "You go do what you need Madam Lightwood." I quickly get up and give her a hug before leaving.

When I finally appear in front of an oriental house in Japan I sighed. "Hopefully this is right." I walked into the big house and the mats were smooth. I quietly sat down and a bowl of grapes appear. I grabbed a grape and popped it into my mouth. I laid down quietly and fell asleep listening to the sound of humming.
