TWO DAYS PASSED BY LIKE A BLUR. Nothing much happened other than getting scolded by Genya for about an hour for taking the blame. Than on the second day I got too bored because I finished reading my book and since I couldn't go to the library I thought, why not try and use your powers? And so I did. Which I ended up almost burning my room down but Genya was quick to save the day before scolding me. Again.
"Irina."
Nothing.
"Irina."They spoke a little louder.
Still nothing.
"Irina!"
They yell in my ear making me shoot up from bed making me alerted of my surroundings. I take in my surrounding seeing servants in my room. I turn my head and spot Zoya standing on my side of the bed with her arms in front of her.
I glare at her. "What the hell was that for?"i question. She shrugs her shoulder. Zoya and I aren't close, but we're close enough to a bit about each other. Zoya doesn't fear me life everyone else does. She sweet and kind and care for me just like Genya. Even Zoya hates to admit it.
"You weren't waking up, so I had no other choice but to yell In you're ear."She tells me and I sigh.
"Reasonable."I mumble before burying my face in my hands tiredly.
"Miss Marshall's, tub is ready Ma'am."I hear a female servant speak and I lift my head up and frown looking between to two confusingly. I watch as the servant walk away with the other servants before looking back at Zoya.
"Is there something I should know about?"I raise an eyebrow questionably. Zoya lets out a sigh.
"All I know is that the general had asked me to get you ready and look presentable."Zoya tells me. I widen my eyes. "Now you have an hour so I suggest you hurry."She gestures to the bathroom and I quickly get out of bed and make my way to the bathroom glancing back at Zoya.
What the hell is going on? And where the hell is Genya?
I than take off my cotton nightgown and let it drop to the floor before taking off my shorts that came with the nightgown. Fully undressed I walked towards the tub and stick my left foot in the warm water before getting in.
After I finish cleaning myself I stand up and grab my velvet bathrobe and put it on to cover my body before walking out the bathroom.
I spot Zoya in front of my vanity going through a kit she had opened and I walk towards her. I give her a smile and she gives me a smile back before I sit down on the chair.
"I heard you went into the fold with the first army."I spoke watching as she does my hair after drying it. "What was it like being in the fold?"I ask making zoya pause. I've never been in the fold and I never will go into the fold.
"Chaotic. A whole lot of stuff happened."She tells me. I look down feeling bad for the older girl. "But you know, it was nothing new. Other than finding the sun summoner."
I look up at her in confusion. "Sun summoner?" Zoya nods.
"Yes."She confirms. "She's here in the palace."I squint my eyes at her.
"What's a sun summoner?"I question. Never have I ever heard anything about a sun summoner. Zoya widens her eyes in surprise.
"You don't know what a sun summoner is?"She questions and I shake my head and decided to take a guess.
"They can summon a...sun?"I pause and Zoya snorts and walks towards the kit to close it while I take a look at my hair in the mirror. I got to say she did a pretty decent job on my hair.
"Sun summoners can bend and summon light, and they can also summon heat from the sun."She explains and i hum.
"So she's almost like me?"I question looking away from the mirror at at Zoya. She rests her elbow on the kit and lean on it.
"She is, but not as powerful as you."She boops my nose with her index finger and I sigh watching as she walk towards my bed to grab a second army uniform she had placed down earlier.
"Zoya we've gone through this plenty of times, I'm not as powerful as you think I am. If anything is the sun summoner that's way more powerful than me, I mean, she could be the one to take down the fold."I tell her as she walks back towards me with the uniform in her arms.
"You should always believe in yourself, Irina."She said hands time the army uniform before placing her hand on my shoulder giving it a squeeze flashing me a smile before leaving me alone in my room. I look down at the uniform in my hands thinking about every word she has said.
But what if I'm not as powerful as she thought I am? What if she's wrong? I mean, she has to be wrong of course I'm not powerful. I'm just a regular Phoenix that can summon fire and have fire wings appear on my back, even though it only happened one time. I don't even know how it happened I remember four years ago I was with General kirigan and a thirteen-year old was making fun about me and was calling me names. I guess I got angry and lashed out on her but I never expected to have wings appear from my back, or have flames form on my hand I never knew it happened until I saw the feared look on the girls face along with the other kids who witnessed it as well, I remember the look on the General's face when he looked at me. It was mixed with the look of shock and a bit of fear.
Later than evening when I was in my room the general came inside and told me what happened when I lashed out. That's when I become more scared of who I was than I have been before. That's when I came to realize that I was an abomination to this world and that I will never belong here. I will always be the feared one.
Everything will change. And when it does you will no longer be the feared one.
A voice echoed through my head and I snap my head up and look around my room wondering where that voice came from.
"Hello?"I call out just to get no response. I skeptically get up from my chair and call out again. "Is anybody there?"
Nothing.
I take a deep breath and shut my eyes for a second. "It was just my imagination."I tell myself and shake off the uneasy feeling I'm getting before taking off my velvet robe to start getting dressed for this 'thing' I have.
Unknowing to me that after today everything will change and that my whole life with be on the line.
She chose you, fate lies in your hands now. This is just the beginning.
