Burning Flame

Part 34

Drama Club- Melanie Martinez

Gods you hated this; you hated sitting in front of your parents, you hated that they were the only ones with the information you needed, you hated that Scarlet had to sit here because of you.

Scarlet definitely got most of her looks from your mother due to your father being a pale blue hue. Her hair was just as fiery as your sisters, her eyes nearly matched Scarlets as well. Your father looked nothing like you or your sister and it made you very uncomfortable. Out of everyone in this 'family' you were the only one that looked anything close to a human.

"Why is it that my two daughters never come to see me anymore? Especially you Scarlet. My you've grown. You look good darling." Mother says. Making you instantly self-conscious in the way you look compared to your sister.

"You know why I never come to visit. Why we both never come to visit." Your sister says with a blank expression, you couldn't tell what she was thinking or how she was feeling.

"Oh please Scarlet. You really need to move on and stop holding onto the past." Your mother says, rolling her eyes to show her annoyance with your sisters attitude towards her.

You were completely paying attention to the conversation when you feel someone enter your mind without permission, you instantly lock eyes with your fathers icy blue eyes.

"Hello dear." He says in your mind and you had to fight any reaction that was trying to claw its way through the surface.

"Father.." You reply in your head doing your best to not look away from his gaze or alert your sister to anything going on.

"But we are your parents!!" You jump when your mother yells making you snap back to the conversation that the two were having.

"Oh cut the shit Sienna. We didn't come here to discuss our relation to you or the lack there of." Your sister replies to your mothers outburst. You could practically feel the daggers your mother was staring at your sister.

"How. Dare. You. I-" Your mother beings only to be cut off by your father.

"Then why are you here girls?" He says. His deep voice practically booming in the quiet room.

"We came here to get information." Your sister says and before you could listen to anything else you feel your father in your mind again.

"You've grown into quite the beautiful young lady Y/n." He says and looks to your sister. "It's such a shame that your sister is teaching you such bad habits." He says. Before you could say anything your sister gets up and you follow her lead.

"Why are we leaving Scar? I thought they were the only ones who knew about Nephrite?" You ask your sister through your mind link.

"Not necessarily. Plus I know what I'm doing. Trust the process. Watch and learn little sister." She replies through the link and chuckles out loud.

"Wait! You don't have to leave. What is it that you want to know?" Your mother yells to the two of you making both of you stop in your tracks. Scarlet looks to you smirking, you just roll your eyes and smirk back to her as the both of you walk back to the table.

"What do you know of Nephrite?" Your sister asks. You look to your father expecting him to talk to you again but he stayed silent this time.

"Ah. So she's finally shown herself huh?" Your mother says smiling.

"Well, go on. Spit it out." Your sister says crossing her arms.

"Nephrite is just like the Entity in her own way. One might even say, related." She says smiling. "Anyway, Nephrite is the most powerful being one person can weld. With that being said she is not one to mess with in any shape or form. Her possession is just that. Possession." She stops and looks directly at you.
