The Girl with Black Feathers. Book 1

WTF DADDD.

Leraina's POV

I looked at the boy in front of me, he looked just like me, but at the same time the exact opposite.

He had white hair, extremely pale skin, and blue eyes, but the thing that drew my attention the most was the black streak that was running through his hair in the same place the white streak did in mine.

He smiled down at me and fell to his knees, embraced me, I didn't hesitate I hugged him until he pulled away to look at me. I could now see every little crevice in his face, and I knew I could trace them in my sleep, they were perfectly identical to mine.

I was crying, he was crying, we were crying because even though we had just met we knew everything about the other, what the other had gone through. And we were finally re-united.

But then ... Hades turned to us and whispered;

"Run."

Father lunged at us, we both screamed, and fought as he pulled me out of my twin's arms and threw me through a swirling black portal into the unknown.

Nico's POV

I arrived in the palace to see someone being thrown into a portal thingy, and my step-mother and very distant cousin screaming at Father's 2nd in command. While he calmly watched the portal closed.

My father turned to me, panicked.

"You have a new quest for another missing person, while looking for the Jackson boy find a girl who is identical to your cousin, only tanner, with dark hair, and green eyes.

I opened my mouth to ask the hundreds of questions suddenly swirling in my head, but father help up his hand, telling me not to argue with him. So I didn't.

--magic warp of time and space--

Leraina's POV

I looked up halfway through the portal, and into the dark abyss, when it suddenly turned into a bright blue sky, and I felt like I was floating, turns out, I discovered, I was.. until I plummeted toward the ground. I thought I was dead until I remembered what Hades told me about my magic.

I frantically thought of what to do to stop my decent, when my shoulder blades flexed and relaxed again, and I could feel my back bones expanding and thinning without me controlling it.

Then a ripping sound as a set of wings tore through my shirt and caught the air, beginning to flap on their own.

I was flying.

And it was incredible, my wings carried me up into a cloud and I came out soaking wet, but dried quickly. I looked down and could see my hometown below me, and I decided to have a little fun.

I flew up a bit more and arched my back pulling my wings in, and began plummeting again, only this time, less panicky. And as I approached the street I'd been kidnapped on, my wings extended and I landed softly on the ground, across the street from the alley where I'd been jumped, and my wings seemed to fold right back into my back, and I mended my jacket, and went across the street, picking up the bags that had been abandoned.

I looked around at the shops, my friends were just coming out. But, I'd been gone for at least a day right?

"Wrong" I heard a now familiar voice behind me.

"WOW, you throw me through a portal, now your going to explain something to me.. greeaat" I said sarcastically, still very, very pissed off.

I turned and faced my father.

"yes dear" he said. "disregarding my sarcasm, time works differently in each dimension so really you've been gone for.. bout 5 minutes"
