I woke hearing a loud scream, it took a while for my brain to process it was my own. My body shivered and i felt wet with sweat, turning over in bed i checked the time 6 AM,
might aswell get up i told myself. I threw my covers off my legs and stood up onto the floor, stretching as my joints popped. I grabbed a towel from the cupboard and jumped in the shower, the jets temperarily washed away all the painful memorys, after half an hour i got out and dried myself. I towel dried my hair and glanced up into the bathroom mirror, my heart gave a jult as i swear i saw my dearest sister in the reflection...
Are you really this dumb! of course it looks like her your twins! I told myself.
Lalya, my twin sister, has been missing for nearly ten years now, and my heart still aches.
After the murder of my last guardian and the kidnapping of my sister i was found in a pool of my own blood by a group of people, they like to call themselfs the protectors. These people nursed me from my state and brought me up to be strong, your probably wondering why. Well, the protectors are a establishment, an establishment that consists of people with special gifts, or just a yearning to protect.
The protectors were on their way to me and my sister after my parents died, so they could look after us properly, but by a twist of fate the day they came to find us was the day we went with our grandma to her home. By the time the protectors knew our location it was already to late to save my nana or Layla...
At first i was very confused as to why a group created to protect people with gifts tried to protect me, until they told me what i was...
*memory*
"why are you helping me im not gifted" i asked the strange group.
"that's where your wrong sweetie" a kind lady said " your more gifted than all the protectors put together" she told me as the group left to go rest.
"t-that cant be,i- i cant do anything, y-youve got the wrong girl..." i studdered i was only eight and just lost the last two members of my family. I was seriously messed up.
"We know you couldent do anything before, because you didnt know of your power. But now you can start to learn" the lady smiled at me reasurringly
"what can i do then?" i became intrigued
"well," she paused " nobody knows, your gifts will only be discovered in time" she patted my head and was walking out of the strange infirmary place when i called out to her.
"Lady?" i asked
"yes?"
"what do you call people like me?"
" Well if there was a group of people like you they would be called The Imorti, but seeing as its just you left of all of them you are well your are" she paused "... Youre The Last Imortal".
I opened my eyes and sighed at the memory, throwing on some sweats i started to jog to the gym for my daily work out when i noticed a figure running towards me. It was kim.
" Kiaira" gasp " need " gasp " your" gasp " help" gasp "we" gasp "have" gasp "one" She struggeled out i instantly knew what she meant and ran with her as she panted down into a dark alcove area. Where the protectors were formed in a circle holding onto huge chains, that stopped a huge furry beast, with long yellow nails, a snout and a stench of death from getting loose.
"Girly" it hissed, its tongue snaking out of its jaws " we meet again".......
