Forgotten Shores

5.

"I need sometime alone, " I say and go outside.

There's nothing I can do.

There will be many more who'll come.

And I'll never know who the real one is.

I can't even prepare myself to meet James.

Jace's bogeyman

"Why did I get the gun? " I shout out loud.

"Because your mind is stronger than your emotions, sweetie" someone tells it to me from behind.

I turn.

Madame X.

"Caessa." I say.

"Madame Y. Sweetie. You got me wrong"

"I've been wrong the whole time." I whisper to myself. But just a bit loud.

"This time, yes. But not always. You realized that your reliquiae army does not hold all real begins. That's brilliant" she says.

It surprises me.

"How do you know all this?"

"Sweetie. We aren't calling ourselves 'madame' simply are we?

"

"Why don't you just tell us what's going on?!"

"Sweetie. I'm taking care of with you. So don't worry."

"Then help me Y"

"A hint. Because I know you'll manage."

"Go on," I say.

"Sweetie you need to find the difference, no two beings walk the same, talk the same, eat the same, smile the same, cry the same."

"Enforce your feelings. But your mind has to take control." she adds on.

"What?" I ask, completely baffled.

~Shoot~

I turn towards the sound of the bullet.

And then the adrenaline rush makes me feel the nest danger had approached.

Has*

"That's your cue," she says.

I turn to her but she isn't there anymore.

"Alina. You can do it." I whisper and run to the location.

Cassidy and Corey.

Welcome bogeyman.

"Alina?! Thank God. Kill her fast. Look! Proof"

Cassidy says as she shows me the tattoo.

I look at bogeyman Corey.

"Who are you? You don't have a good taste of fashion," Corey says.

"Shoot goddammit!" Cassidy barks at me, losing patience.

I take out the gun from my pocket.

"What? Have you lost it?!" Corey shouts at me.

Sweetie you need to find the difference, no two beings walk the same, talk the same, eat the same, smile the same, cry the same.

Her words ring within.

~shoot~

Cassidy's dead.

"Thank the stars," Corey says.

"They'll kill you, we need to go." I tell her.

"What? Listen there's already enough going on. " she says.

Jace and Mardon are now here.

"She killed her! Because Cassidy knew Alina was doing something fishy!" Mardon tells Jace.

And what I see next is unbelievable

Jace takes out a gun of his own.

And points at my direction.

"Shoot," Mardon hisses

"RUN!" I shout. And we both run for our lives.

Footsteps from behind make my heart vibrate.

There's a sensation that's pathetic.

"Im tired Alina," she says.

"RUN! They'll kill us"
