leave.

Dahlia sat at her desk, filling out the files on the last case she solved. When she got a call. 'Hello, Agent Argent speaking.' She heard a laugh from the phone 'always so serious argent' she rolled her eyes. it was her boss Agent Gibson 'hello, what can I do for you.' She asked him with a monotoned voice. He let out a chuckle. Dahlia honestly just wanted to get her work done and she wasn't doing it with him distracting her. 'Well Agent Argent' he said jokingly serious ' you are being re-stationed he finished. Dahlia was shocked, she had wanted to get re-stationed somewhere something happens. 'If I may ask sir, where?' She questioned the man. He asked her to wait a moment, you could hear aggressive clicking and typing before he answered, 'beacon hills.' Dahlia's eyes widened. Beacon Hills. That is where Chris, her brother, and his family moved to. God, she hadn't seen him in years. 'All right, when will I be moving?' She asked Gibson. Not taking long to answer Agent Gibson replied 'as soon as possible, tomorrow morning?' He spoke in a questioning tone. Was Dahlia excited to see her brother? No. A lot happened when she last spoke to him.

Flashback

'Dahlia! Come on it's getting late.' An 18-year-old Chris mentioned. Dahlia turned to look at him, rolling her eyes. the sky hadn't even gotten dark yet. 'Chris, it's only 8. Can I just stay out here for a little longer?' She begged. Putting her puppy dog eyes to use. 'Dahlia, you know dad told you to be in at 7, you've been out an hour extra already' sighed Chris, they both knew what their father would do to the 15-year-old Dahlia if they didn't get home soon. She groaned, 'all right, let's get going.'

They were just around 5 minutes away from the house when they heard a noise from a bush to their left. Similar to the one Dahlia heard that night. The whole situation is similar t that night. The being out late. The location. 'Chris. You heard that too right?" She uttered under her voice. dahlia looked at him, it looked like he hadn't stopped walking as he was far in front of her. 'Chris' she spoke a little louder, trying to get his attention. He didn't stop. The girl started to walk over to him. He seemed to be in some sort of trance. 'Chris, you're scaring me. Come on stop playing.' her soft voice whispered. Something in him switched as if someone had pressed a button. 'Hello, young one. Nice to see you again' grubbed out a deep voice. It startled her. It was obvious that whoever was talking, was not her brother.

Her breathing became uneven. Tears brimmed her eyes, threatening to fall. the wind began to pick up, and the sky was tinted red. Dahlia was concerned and confused. despite it being cold, her hand felt as though it was on fire, she looked at it and it was. Dahlia's hand, her human hand, was on fire. She saw the flames, but the pain was non-existent. The fire in her hand turned into a spear-like shape. Her eyes were glowing an orange fire-like colour. Before she could do anything, she felt a sharp pain in her side.

She looked to her side and saw her father with a crossbow and some metal chains. The orange glow in her eyes left along with the speaking of power in her hand. 'Why?' She questioned him. She was his daughter, why would he want to hurt her? Did he not love her? I'll give you 10 minutes to pack your crap and get out of my sight.' He smiled coldly. dahlias eyes began to water again, this time nothing stopping them. 'You're not about to play innocent daughter right now. Leave.' He yelled. Lia was sobbing by now. 'Is that really what you want?' She whimpered, nearly looking at him. 'Do I need to repeat myself? Leave. I mean who would miss you? I wouldn't, I don't think Chris or Kate would either. I've heard them. Talk about how much they hate you. How annoying you are. This, monster inside you just gives me a reason to get rid of you' Gerard was smirking, clearly, not caring about how he was hiring his daughter. She nodded. Not wanting to hear anything else she walked away never seeing any of them ever since.

Present

'Argent?' Agent Gibson questioned Dahlia had spaced out. She coughed before answering 'yes agent, I'll be on a plane as soon as.' And that is what she did.
