I HUFF AS I WALK DOWN THE HALLWAY WITH GAURDS. They're making me wear a veil. Like no army uniform includes a veil. I glance at one of the guards who stares ahead.
"Do you know why I need to wear this?"i question the guard who glances at me,
"General Kirigan's orders."Is all he said and I groan.
"Thanks for the lovely answer."i murmur sarcastically as we walk through the doors to another hallway. I huff. "Why couldn't we take the shorter way."I whine.
Becoming bored I start the blow on the veil in hopes to get it removed from my head. I didn't even realize the guards have walked away.
"Stop that!"I hear a familiar voice whisper shout at me and I turn around spotting Genya with another girl. A wide smile appears on my face.
"Genya!"I shout and pull her into a bone crushing hug. "Oh, how I missed you."I say dramatically.
"Oh, stop being dramatic, it's only been a day."She pulls me off and I look at her offended placing a head on my heart.
"I thought you loved me."I said and she rolls her eyes. I than spot a girl who stood taller than me standing beside her awkwardly. I frown. "Who is she?"I point at the girl confusingly.
Genya glances at Alina beside before looking at me. "This is Alina Starkov, the sun summoner."She answers.
I squint my eyes. "The sun..."I trail off confused before remembering. "Oh! The sun summoner."I realize. I look at the girl shyly and give her a small wave in greeting. "Hi."
She waves her hand back before Genya spoke. "Alina this is Irina Marshall, she's also a summoner like you."She tells her. Alina Widens her eyes in surprise. Another sun summoner?
"She's a sun summoner?"Alina questions Genya who went to speak but I cut her off.
"A pheonix, actually."I correct the taller girl who looks at me in shock. "All I know is that I can create a ball of fire and that I loose control of my powers with my emotions."I look down at my feet. "Probably because I don't know how to control my powers yet, and also why people fear me. I wouldn't be surprise if you fear me as well." I murmur the last sentence not wanting the girl to hear.
Alina can't help but feel bad for the girl. She may not know the girl but she could already tell she has been through a lot. She approaches the girl slowly and take both her hands in hers squeezing them softly causing the small girl to look up at her.
"I may not know you, but I will never have fear over you for being what you are. Now, i don't know what you're going through but I can tell you've been through a lot but just know that I'm head for you, now. And, I think being a Pheonix is pretty fascinating."Alina smiles causing a small smile and a look of surprise appear on my face. "I think you and I are going to be good friends."
Friends.
The word echoes through my mind. I stare at the girl for a moment even though I couldn't fully see her due to the veil blocking my face. She seems nice and Genya did say I need to socialize more and have more friends other than having just her as my friend. She didn't mean it in a harsh way though. I glance at Genya before at Alina. I could tell that Genya is starting at me with a hopeful look.
I smile at Alina. "I have a feeling you and I are going to be good friends as well."I tell her who smiles back at me. A proud smile forms on Genya's face before it turns serious. she clears her throat catching our attentions. I let my hands drop to my side.
"As much as I hate ruining this moment but, the General is waiting for you two so it's best we be off, yeah?"She interferes. I blush and glance at Alina before Genya takes both our hands and leads us down the hall.
I let out a sigh. "Why do we have to wear an army uniform?"i question Genya.
"Yeah, shouldn't we be in a Kefta?"Alina spoke up confused. We?
Genya pauses her steps and turns around to face us. "Oh, no. The king expects to see a humble girl plucked from the ranks of his army."She informs Alina who stares inside the library. "He'll want to take the credit for you."
I squint my eyes. "If the king wants to see Alina than why am I here?"i question Genya who fiddles with the sleeves of her white Kefta.
"Because the king wants to see you as well."She tells me and I widen my eyes. The kings wants to see me?
Genya gestures with her fingers to follow her. I gulp and hesitantly follow her with Alina while a million thoughts fill my mind. Why would the king want to see me? How come he wants to see me? I though the general said he wouldn't show me in front of the king because I'm not ready yet.
A million questions we're going through my mind. Why now?
"You both will get a kefta once he's witnessed your powers."Genya tells us. I don't even know how to use my powers. They just pop up randomly. Saints, please save me.
"Right, my power."I hear Alina mumble next to me before we follow Genya down the stares.
"By all accounts, it'll be King Pyotr, the Queen, Crown Prince Vasily, and the King's Spiritual Adviser, the Apparat."Genya tells us making anxiety hit me. Genya than whispers to us blocking her mouth making sure nobody else hears. "He's this greasy rat——"
Alina cuts her off. "Was that a library?"she asks pointing back upstairs. "Is it available to all of us?"
Genya looks at the girl with a smile. "Everything here is available to all of us."we make it to the bottom of the stairs. "The general built this home for us so we can thrive."Genya continues as the guard's opens both doors for us to enter.
