Get ready to take a trip into the mind of Lily. Hope you enjoy the chapter.


Chapter 7: Mind the Roses

What am I going to do I thought as I sat on a bench in the middle of the garden as tears fell from my eyes

You kill them all said a voice in my mind.

But I don't want all of them to die. I thought as even more tears fell and as they fell they turned into rose petals.

THEY ARE AGAINST OUR CAUSE! The voice shouted

NO they are against your cause. Not mine. I thought I don't want all my friends to die because they stand for what YOU think is bad.

You will do as I say young lady said my mom's voice

Mom what are you doing in my thoughts. I think

Not important. Now you will kill everyone at Beacon or I will go their and do it myself and you will join your friends. She threatens

I don't care what you do to me, but I will stop you from hurting my friends. They are the only family I have. I inform her through my thoughts.

I hope you don't mean that. She tells me, but at that moment I hear a bush rustle. I quickly grab Black Rose and get ready to attack whatever it was.

"Who's there?" I ask. The next thing I see is a girl with a red cloak come out of the bushes

"Lily what are you doing here." Ruby says.

"Just had a really bad day." I tell her.

"It must have been pretty horrible if you are in the garden crying." She says

"You're right." I tell her "Can I tell you a pretty big secret?"
"Sure what is it?" She asked

"My mother wants me to kill everyone at Beacon." I say as I burst out in tears.

"Oh my." She exclaims

"The worst part is I caught her business partners robbing a store a few days ago." I say as more tears fall and turn into rose petals.

"You know what. I did a little digging and my dad told me that I do have a long lost sister, but when my sister was just a few days old a thief stole her from the hospital." She told me

"When did this happen?" I ask as I try to stop the tears.

"My dad told me that she was stolen on June 25, 1996." She informed me as she wrapped her arm around me. Though it was tempting to steal some of her speed I wasn't in mood to steal her aura.

"Wait. That's my birthday!" I exclaim.

"I think we should check if we really are sisters." Ruby says as she grabs my hand and starts pulling me towards the school.

"Wait where are you taking me?" I ask as I struggle to keep up.

"We are going to the infirmary to get a DNA test." She says as she activates her semblance and we speed to the infirmary in a few seconds.

"Hello Miss Rose and Miss Rose. What can we do for you today?" The nurse at the counter asked.

"We would like to have a DNA test done to see if we are related." Ruby said.

"And I would like to see how my friend is doing afterwards." I say

"That can be arranged." She says politely. "Now if you two would follow me we can get that DNA test done right through here."

"Does it require blood work?" I ask timidly

"Is the fearless warrior who took down a 10 meter tall beowulf afraid of needles." Ruby says as she jokingly punches my shoulder.

"NO!" I exclaim but the look on her face tells me that she can easily tell that I'm lying.

"It's perfectly normal to be afraid of needles." The nurse tells me. "Just close your eyes and think of something that you enjoy."

So I close my eyes and think of the first time I took flight with my wings. After my eyes had been closed for a good minute I open my eyes and the nurse is taking a little blood from Ruby.

"Am I done?" I ask

"Yep. After you closed your eyes I took your blood and everything went perfectly fine." The nurse assured me. "You can go see your friend for a little bit while I take care of the blood work."

"Thank you ma'am." I say.

"I'm so proud of you." Ruby says as she hugs me.

"Get off." I say as I drain a little bit of her aura.

"You caused this dizzyness when we were on the ship, didn't you?" Ruby asked as she grabbed her head

"Yep. Now thanks to you I can now do this." I say as I activate her semblance and run to Indigo's room as Black Rose petals fell from my hair.

"Hey you look just as cool as I do when I use my semblance." She says as I enter Indigo's room.

"Hey girl." Indigo says

"How are you feeling?" I ask as Ruby and I come into her room laughing.

"Great. You two have the same laugh. Did you know that?" She informs us.

I look at Ruby's silver eyes and I see part of myself in her.

"We never noticed." I tell her

"Why is she here?" Indigo asked Ruby

"I'm here to see if Lily is truly my long lost sister." Ruby tells her.

"It would be totally awesome if you two were sisters. You could paint each other's nails, try on clothes and talk about cute boys." Indigo says

"That would be so sweet." Ruby said.

"Miss Rose." Said a doctor at the door.

"Yes" Ruby and I both said at once.

"Your DNA test is in and I am happy to announce that you are indeed sisters."

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Ruby and I scream. Our scream is so loud that a glass vase sitting beside Indigo's bed shattered instantly.

"Wow I don't think I'll ever hear the same again." Said the doctor.

"Sorry." We say.

"So what do you want to do big sis." Ruby asked me.

"Whatever you want little sister." I say.

"How about sleep so I can get this ringing out of my ears?" Indigo suggests.

"Yeah it is getting late." I say "See you two tomorrow." I say as I jump out the window and fly off towards the dorms.
