Lauren Quinto

I packed my bags and I am now ready to go. Apollo was able to make my aunt and sister think that I am just going for a vacation, using his ability ofcourse. When I was done, I took my towel and jumped in the shower for about 15 minutes and dried my hair damp with it. I wore my black ripped jeans, a blue crop top and my flats. I took my bag and headed straight downstairs. I said my byes to my sister and aunt.

I wish I could still come back. I wish I'd see you again.

It might seem easy but trying to gain world domination against four powerful elements? Not really. We don't even know their abilities yet, except me, I know that Lucian has wings, but I'm not sure if he's one of the elements. And I do hope he's not. You see, no matter how kind you are, if you are an unlucky person to belong in the darkness elements, you have no choice but to be.... Dark. Not only outside but every part of you inside.

I opened the door and got out as I headed to Ryan's car. He's the one who's gonna pick me up for today. I held the door handle of the car...

but he wasnt there. Where could he be? I looked around but he was nowhere to be found.

"LAUREN!"

I heard a shout and I ran towards the sound. I don't know why but, I could feel the sound waves. It's radiating my whole body. I can feel the sound waves of what seemed to be gasps and groans. I could feel my name being said. I could feel it. Not hear it.

"Ryan!"

No answer. And suddenly I didn't feel anything. The groans stopped. I couldn't feel anything anymore. Not even his breaths. I looked around seeing no clues. I continued to walk straight to where I can feel it lately. And I saw him. I saw him. LIFELESS.

"Ryan!" I shouted but he was just laying there. Not breathing. No sign of being alive. And have you guessed what else I saw? Feathers.

"Lauren!" I jolted through Ryan's shout.

"What?" I said and rolled my eyes.

"You've been standing there staring at nothing for like... 5 minutes now." He told me. And that's when I realized,

"I saw a vision!" I told him.

"What vision?"

"Vision!"

"Good or bad?"

"Well, you being dead. You decide. Is it good or bad?" I told him, I maybe chill but I'm worried af.

"What happened?"

"I can remember much of it.... "

"Try to remember!" I closed my eyes trying yo remember every single detail. I explained to him with my eyes still closed trying to recall everything.

"Well, you weren't in the car and I saw you--"

I was stopped by a scream. And when I shot my eyes open, I saw nothing. Noone. He's not here anymore and the window in his side was shattered. I quickly remembered where I saw him in the vision and i ran towards it as fast as I can.

"Stop!" I shouted and I saw it. He was masked now. And he is properly clothed. Clothes for fighting. Like fitted black shiny and everything. And it has two professionally cut holes for the wings to come out when needed. He looked at me and he let go of Ryan and Ryan falls coughing.

He slowly walked towards me and I didn't step back. He won't hurt me, right? I looked at his eyes. His chocolate brown eyes always made me calmer.
