I hear the clothes ripping and then a thumping sound followed by laughter of a bunch of men as the cold chain around my neck slowly starts to burn as i begin pulling at them desperately trying to break free, I hear a shrill scream only to wake up drenched in cold sweat , trying to focus my eyes on the clock i realise I've woken up half an hour early than required, being obsessed with fitness i warm up and start doing all the basics, when the my shoulders start getting tired i push myself to the maximum limit and get up and make my way out of the house and start slowly walking and gradually with a paced stride moving swiftly through the forest as the scent of rain fills my lungs, after returning from the run i complete my daily routine and get ready for school as i grab the keys for my truck and make my way to Ritsford High.
Like the first day of any typical high school the halls are buzzing with students new and old alike filled with all the cliques and the sort , but something felt off as I let my eyes wander around the halls I come across a pair of brown and Amber eyes staring at me intensely , feeling bored i turn away and head to the office to get a schedule and just like it has been the past two years the whispers start as people try to avoid me or I get pitiful looks but i could care less after going through the entire tiresome and time wasting ordeal I make way towards English AP lit and sit down at the corner of the class near the window zoning out everyone until the teacher enters " Good morning everyone welcome to the start of a new semester and i would like to welcome our new tranfer student LEV to Ritsford High", i looked at the transfer from the corner of my eye and huffed a breathe as i went back to focusing the scenery outside the window, " My name is Leviathan christalway , Lev for short and i moved from Europe", he finished with a deep voice , there were some who swooned at him and yet it was a dull moment for me as the teacher made my year miserable by settling the shiny toy for the year besides me, " Lev why don't you sit besides Draven on the empty spot at the last " , as my ears picked up on that sentence i kept my face blank as always and didn't bother to look but instinctively i could feel his gaze trying to study me and just as i could feel him about to start a conversation i put in my earbuds and ignore him as the teacher starts the class , I feel the bell ring through the vibration of my desk and get up to leave but my path get blocked by (trying to shoot my got) girls who were waiting for the lecture to end "excuse me" I say as i weave through the crowd of cats that couldn't hide their curiosity, and I make my way to the rest of my lectures , half way through out my third class the static of the speaker draws everyone's attention "Draven Obsidian, please come to the principal's office" as the receptionist repeats this twice more I get up walk out of the class with the same uninterested face , I see the back of a woman with black hair as i realised who it was but before I could speak she said the words that I had been waiting for since a two years " she's regained conciousness and i thought you'd wa- " I cut her off as I drag my mother tugging at her wrist to the exit of the school.
We get into the car and on the way my mother sighs " you know whatever happened wasn't your fault right?" I tilt my head to give her a blank look from the corner of my eyes and continue to maintain silence as soon as we reach the hospital basement parking i bolt out of the car as fast as i can and towards the ICU there I see her being held down by nurses and a doctor with injection in his hand, I walk in as a male nurse tries to stop me but i shove him out of the room instead," LILIANA!" i scream as the wailing girl looks at me holding my gaze , I breathe a shaky breath and walk towards her slowly the hold out my hand she slowly tries to reach my hand from under the grasp of the nurse holding her down " She's fine so release her at once before i get you all incompetent fools fired ! " I say giving them a death glare ," Did you're superior not inform you to not have any male workers incharge of her or are they ingnorant of the patients condition" i seethe at the doctor and nurses , "Sis " I hear as the frail girl looks at me longingly, the nurses and doctors get out of my way as I hug the little girl in my arms , " Do you remember who they were my little fairy?" I whispered to her half hugging her," it was our neighbours relative the one who was always drunk and his friends they......" she cried silently her tears soaking my right shoulder , I heard my mother walk in as I handed my sister to my mother, my step father came in running and went towards my sister as I walked out of the ICU with a blank face and called for a taxi to back to my house but before i reached the steps to go down i felt my arm being grabbed and it was my stepfather he looked at me with tired and pained eyes " Did she say who it was?" His voice filled with desperation and urgency, i just sighed at him and nodded saying no and in a flash of second he fell to his knees looking helpless i turned to go down "Draven wait! Before i forget " he took out something from the pocket of his jacket and handed me a box with his shivering hands " Viviana had told me to give this to you before your birthday without fail, she said it belonged to Drayce and something about opening it at 12 o'clock sharp is necessary " he got up on his feet as i said a thanks and left , on the way back i knew how guilty my mother felt for not being there for my birthday but I didn't care about those things i never did since childhood it had always been my concern but I didn't show emotions every night I was in a different hell as i experienced the different types of pain women went through just because of some criminals who went unpunished but i wanted to do something and I was frustrated of this heartless world so i prayed and trained myself as to not become someone who needs protection but someone who will become a living disaster.
I did as told and opened the box but ended up cutting my thumb in the process , the box held two feathers and a note it read
Little DravenBy the time you get this letter I won't be with you I'll be out on my own journey, but those are yours, those feathers need your blood smeared on it and i know it will seem weird but my little monster you need to set the world right whenever things go wrong, in the next few decades, I'll meet you when the time is right, I'll be watching You, and i love you, LET GO ! BE FREE ! LOOSE THE CONTROL! GIVE THEM HELL.
(P.S make sure to place the feathers on your wing blades before the blood dries)Love
Dad
