Deadly Love

If we don't heal we will break

 Good things happen to good people has to be the dumbest quote I heard because apparently, good things happen to bad people as well. Whoever is tracking me down not only cleared the room before Candy's friends could retrieve the items. The only thing left was a note saying "I'll be seeing you soon gorgeous Nubia." Candy doesn't hesitate to fill my mother in about what she saw and what note was left for me. Candy apologizes also because she also had to hand the folder over to my mom but kept the book hidden. I know Candy didn't mean for all of that to happen as well as she is trying to protect me from whatever is coming. "What else do you know that you're hiding, Nubia." My mother's voice is angry. "I don't know much Mother, why don't you stop hiding me in the dark and tell me what you know," I yell back at her. She looks at me shakes her head and takes a deep breath. "We know nothing. I mean absolutely nothing. Whatever this thing is. It can hide from both holy maps and demon trackers. It's out for you and I don't even know why it wants you anyway. I know you are powerful but what is it specifically you have that this thing knows and we don't." My mother sounded defeated. "Maddy we don't know what it is or what it wants but we know Nubia is safe and we will keep training her to make sure she is prepared for whatever it wants to throw our way. We are family and nothing is more powerful than that because we have a love that will always overpower things that want to destroy us." My father tells my mother as he places his hand over hers. My mother tries to stand strong but for a second she does lean into him and my father grounds his feet and lets her without anyone noticing but me. 

 My mother gets a shipment of books from God, the Devil, and the human world. "The next few weeks we are going to put you through it. with only four hours of sleep. some of us may only get one but we must not rest till we get some answers of what this thing is." My mother says well looking at me first then to everyone in the building. She bullied us into a ballroom to get us ready for three-hour sessions of studying book after book taking as many notes as possible. We are even rotating books to make sure no information is missed. My mother is training me hard and I'm getting the hang of candy and her coming at me. Next week there will be three of them. I don't know who the third will be but I feel confident that I can't take them down. My sleep has been less than four hours because sometimes I will join others in looking for materials as well as getting new shipments in. "I'm so proud of your dedication Nubia. I think you have come a long way since you started college. I'm also sorry I had to pull you out this semester. I know you plan to graduate by 2025. I am sorry." My dad says well holding my hand in his. He has tears in his eyes because he technically shouldn't be the one to apologize but I respond, "It's fine Dad I feel that I fit in this world a lot better. Remember I didn't even have friends till this year so I say we we have made lots of progress toward bigger things. Also, graduation will happen and my grades weren't that great anyway." He looks at me and starts to laugh because he knows that my grades not being great means I was getting Bs and Cs in my classes. HE walks away still laughing and I just can't help but chuckle a little inside too. 

the room is barely lit when I show up to the mat. Now one has not arrived yet and I decided I will meditate for a while to realine and help my chakras feel a little less worn down. My body settles into a relaxed state when I look inside to see my seven chakras looking a little off balanced. I work from my root chakras and help cleanse them with a white light. I make my way up to the next one and the next. When I get to my heart chakra my third eye opens in my memory and shows me the image of a man walking towards me. He is trying to use a sneak attack on me. I see him getting close I wait til he is three feet from me and I grab his arm. I place both my feet into his ribs and use a rolling effect to have him glide in the air right over me and me having him pinned well standing on his ribs and pulling his arm. I may be little but I sure can use my weight to take down bigger men. "Damn Nubia what the fuck are they feeding you in here." Ezikels crushed voice registers in my head and I imminently jump off of him. "Oh my god, Ezikel. "I'm so sorry. I thought you were a threat," I say with an apologetic tone. "I was a threat. How did you know I was coming at you? How the hell did you do that move? I think your mom was wrong I may be unqualified to fight you. since you just wrapped my ass in me trying to sneak up on you." He sounds proud of me. When I hear the door open behind him my mother comes in saying, "You are a perfect candidate because not only are you a distraction you are also someone my daughter cares about. She will be afraid to hurt you but you can't take it easy on her at all. She also will be using her gaurin skills on you so please try not to die. I did tell your mother I would try to send you back in one peace." "Yes ma'am." Ezikels voice sounds like a soldier at that moment. "Is this my hardest test?" I ask my mother who just shakes her head no. "Alright, you two start fighting." My mother calls out to use. Exikel doesn't even waste a minute he comes in full force. I move out of his way and feel my would tingle. I have learned how to connect to my soul faster now and don't have to do all the hand movement or even go inside I just connect to my true self and then I start to glow a royal blue. Ezikel is so distracted by what's going on that I also decide to show him that I'm fast. like really fast, I'm in his face in seconds and he smiles at me. I kick his feet out from underneath him and I think he will be going down by himself but I am distracted that he pulls me down with him. He rolls on top of me and I'm trying to not let the feeling of liking this boy get in the way of me kicking his ass. My soul glow changes to baby pink letting him know that I'm flattered with him and he blushes which gives me time to roll him on his back. I pull a blade out and put it right under his chin.
