Escape the dark ~ Book 1

Chapter 57 The Sister

~???'s POV~

"SIS!" I heard Vivia yell, happily. I just nodded at her, showing her that I know she was there but didn't want to acknowledge her right now. My full attention was on Angel. The king stared at her, and she stared back, her eyes a pale sky blue. She knew who he was but wanted to make sure it was who she heard about. "Angel." The king said. She just nodded, and I saw a slight glow come her left eye... I looked at the dummy and saw the head was knocked clean off... I stared at where the head was, on the floor, on the other side of her cell. I looked back at Angel and saw all the girls were as far away from her as possible. I saw that Angel's dress turned a slight midnight blue, and so did her hair. She looked like she didn't notice any of the things happening to her. "Angel, you're turning into a shadow knight again." said one of the boys. He was standing up, and staring at Angel. "Erny... for the HUNDREDTH TIME! I CAN'T CONTROL IT! I HAVE HAD A SHADOW SOUL LIVING INSIDE ME MY ENTIRE LIFE! NOW THAT THEY HAVE A PHYSICAL FORM I CAN CONTROL IT EVEN LESS!" Angel yelled, her eyes flashing a bright red, as she looked at him. He backed down as if he knew what was going to happen to him if he made her even more angry. "I'm just saying you need to calm down. You can sing or something..." Erny said. Angel stared at him for a long moment before her eyes went back to normal. She took a deep breath before singing...

You can be amazing

You can turn a phrase into a weapon or a drug

You can be the outcast

Or be the backlash of somebody's lack of love

Or you can start speaking up

Nothing's gonna hurt you the way that words do

When they settle 'neath your skin

Kept on the inside and no sunlight

Sometimes a shadow wins

But I wonder what would happen if you

Say what you wanna say

And let the words fall out

Honestly I wanna see you be brave

With what you want to say

And let the words fall out

Honestly I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

I wanna see you be brave

Everybody's been there,

Everybody's been stared down by the enemy

Fallen for the fear

And done some disappearing,

Bow down to the mighty

Don't run, just stop holding your tongue

Maybe there's a way out of the cage where you live

Maybe one of these days you can let the light in

Show me how big your brave is

Say what you wanna say

And let the words fall out

Honestly I wanna see you be brave

With what you want to say

And let the words fall out

Honestly I wanna see you be brave

And since your history of silence

Won't do you any good,

Did you think it would?

Let your words be anything but empty

Why don't you tell them the truth?

Say what you wanna say

And let the words fall out

Honestly I wanna see you be brave

With what you want to say

And let the words fall out

Honestly I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

See you be brave

I just wanna see you (yeah)

I just wanna see you (oh ooh)

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

When she opened her eyes again, she was looking at the floor. She had tears in her eyes as Vivia stood up and walked over to her. Vivia looked at me, mistrust in her eyes. It hurt me mentally, to see that mistrust in my little sister's eyes, and having it aimed towards me? I just wanted to cry... but I was stronger than the girl I was all those years ago... "Vivia. Step away from Angel ri-" I started before I was cut off by Vivia. "I WILL NOT! I AM HER FRIEND, LILLIAN!" She yelled at me. Angel looked up and stared at me, anger and surprise in her eyes...
