Chapter 4
As she walked back through the forest she heard whispers surround her, the trees themselves seemed to part before her. She could feel the eyes of the animals of the forest staring through gaps to catch a glimpse of this creature that disturbed their rest, the creature that gave off so much power that even a glimpse of it made their hearts soar with hope. As she got closer to the edge of the wood she paused for a moment to glance behind her and smile a gentle smile at the beings that had snuck out to stare at her. She may not get a chance to see this place again so she would spare as much kindness as possible to those that deserved it. As she went to step out of the woods pain seared through her body, she could feel her very essence being torn apart inside of her; it was all moving to fast. The binding spells were crumbling with each passing second; how she was meant to stop the world from crumbling if she herself was crumbling she did not know. With each stab of pain that coursed through her flickers of fire spread across her body for everyone to see. The animals which had snuck out to catch a glimpse of the creature now ran in opposite directions; this was not the hope that had glided passed them a few seconds before this was a whole new creature…this creature seemed to ooze pure evil and hate. A scream ripped through her and as it was released from the confines of her lungs the woods echoed with pain and anguish. She would not let this…this thing be release. She would rather let the creature that was trapped and bound to her very soul destroy her than let it take over and be set free on the unsuspecting people of this world. Phoenix may not have been the kindest or most friendly individual but she would let no one damage the world in the way this thing wanted to.
I told you this would happen Phoenix, you're weak and you always have been. You can't control me, I'm a pure monster and monsters always get their way. Let me out Phoenix, let me show them why they should not doubt you, let me put them in their place like they deserve.
The cruel voice sneered from inside my head, pushing its way through my conscience to try and seep through and win over my body.
"I won't let you out, I will rather have you kill me than let you out. They may not always listen to me, or care for my opinion but I would never let harm come to any of them. Destroy me but I am not a monster, I am not invisible, I am someone to somebody out there even if I have not met them yet."
As soon as Phoenix had said these words the pain passed, the creature that was inside of her had gone back into hiding, it had felt the resolve that had spread through her body and had gone into hiding. She had finally done it, she had beaten down the monster inside of her; it may not last forever but it would last long enough for her to finish the task at hand. It would give her to time to help The Order win. There may be casualties on both sides but Phoenix would make sure that there were less casualties on her side…while the other side was wiped out from the face of this earth.
