A Story By Many

Chapter 9

Valerie-

Skylar had run off from the group but no one bothered to follow her,"Aren't we going to look for her?" I asked the others.

"She is fine on her own." Oliver said to me while he stared at the woman standing beside me with her hand on my shoulder. 

"We should get going, you need to prepare." the woman whispered in my ear.

I looked to the other two girls that now had people by them,"See you guys soon?" I asked them.

"See you soon." Katherine said with a smile that said 'I know more than you do.' 

I laughed and walked away with the women and the other people,"What is going on?" I asked the woman but she just kept moving forward.

I had to run to keep up with her long graceful strides,"Stay away from Oliver." she said to me but not quite looking at me.

"You don't have to tell me to stay away from him." I told her.

She spun around and grabbed me by my shoulders,"I mean it Valerie! Stay away from him!" she shouted in my face.

My eyes grew wide with fear but hatred immediately replaced the fear. I pushed her off me and I could feel my arms freeze, i looked down at them and saw the veins again but this time they were a very bright shade of white. I looked back at her,"Do no tell me what to do!" I shouted back at her but all of a sudden the people that were traveling with us stopped and raised their arms up and I felt the cold disappear from my arms.

"You need to stay calm. I know it is difficult but you need to try or you will hurt a ton of people." she told me as she resumed her graceful strides.

I ran after them but we came up to a wall,"Why are we just staring at a wall?" I asked them.

"Patience." one of the people said.

The woman stepped right in front of the wall and put her palm up to it. She put her mouth a few inches in front of the wall and whispered something that I couldn't make out. The wall turned to a door with multiple snowflakes on it and nothing else. The woman's hand glowed a pale blue color and the door opened with a gust of freezing wind but it felt so good to be cold again. All the people walked in and the woman motioned me in with a wave of her hand,"What's your name?" I asked her because I was tired of calling her 'the woman'.

"You will find out soon enough." she said with a small smile. I shrugged my shoulders and decided to drop it.

I walked through the door and saw an outfit on one of those mannequins. The outfit had a  white short cape that went down to where the knees were, it had white leggings that went all the way down but they were tucked into these black boots with a small heel and they looked liked they were made of leather, the shirt was white and it looked kind of tight and it also had a v-neck but the cape draped elegantly over the shirt, on the neck there was a choker that most likely held the cape up but it was a snowflake with smaller snowflakes surrounding it, on the head there was a white hood that cast a shade over the face and had a snowflake design embedded all around the edges of it. 

My mouth dropped in awe,"That's mine?" I asked them.

The woman smiled,"Yes."

It took over an hour to get me ready, they had covered my face with makeup and did almost nothing to my hair.

I had light blue eye shadow and in the corner of my eye there was one small snow flake that was made from glitter, I had mascara on that made my eyes look bigger, I had no eyeliner but I did have a dark red lipstick on that went well with my pale skin.

The outfit looked very good on me, the boots fit perfectly and the leggings were only slightly tucked in them, the cape felt like silk, the shirt was tight but it looked amazing, my hair was pulled over to one side of my face and the hood was over my head and my ring glowed white also.

I looked in the mirror and my moth dropped open in shock,"Who is that?" I joked. The other people in the room laughed along with me.

"We need to get going." the woman said, "Oh, and call me mom." she said with a grin.
