Destined

Chapter 10

There was that word again, "chosen one" what does it mean. Well obviously it means that I'm chosen.. but for what?

"Why am I the "chosen one?" I asked

"We don't know but what we do know is that you are the only one that can stop this war between David and us" She said. "I mean you have to be really special because from what I've gathered from Josh, you have already showed you have telekinetic and telepathetic powers, super- strength and you are not even eighteen. Imagine what powers you would develop when you are eighteen" Telekinetic? Oh that's why I could make Tamara fall and the others could explain for itself, I mean I could push Josh with such force and I was able to read his mind. Why does it have to be me? I wasn't special, I don't want to be special!

"I can't imagine what it would be like for you right now"

"No you can't! I was just an ordinary girl a few days ago and now you are telling me I have to save Panbdora and the world? Do you know how unbelievable that is? I don't want any of this, in fact I don't have to be here" I turned to leave.

"You cannot run away from your responsibilities Aaliyah, you are not save any more David had his only day-walker following you" that stopped me.

"Day-walker? I thought you said that they can only come out at night time?" I shouted, this was sounding more and more ludicrous by the minute.

"Damien is an exception. He his the one that does all of David's dirty works on Earth for him" She walked up to me- trying to comfort me. "You have to embrace this Aaliyah, if not for all of us but to avenge your parents death"

"He killed my parents?" I choked out

"Yes, he heard about the provecy and when you were two, your parents took you to earth for your birthday and they killed your parents but somehow, they couldn't kill you. So they threw you into the river" She confessed

"What?" I demanded

"We made sure the human- Jessica find you and we've been protecting you for years."

"Does Jessica know about all of this?"

"No she doesn't. You see, you have to be able to accept this for the good of everyone"

"I know that now. It's just too much for me" I said tears falling from my eyes.

"It's alright, I will let you go home now. Josh will take you back, but think about what I said. You have to embrace it for all this to be easier" She hugged me and kiss my head.

"I can't believe I don't know your name" I laughed unhumourously.

"It's Elaine dear" She smiled

"Ok, bye"

"Hope to see you soon" she said. I pulled the door open and the cold air pushed against my face. I saw Josh leaning against the entrance, he lifted his head up and gave me his beautiful, heart-stopping smile.

"Hey, take a picture, it would last longer" He smirked. I blushed, looking away. "You okay?"

"Yeah, just wondering what your role is in all of this." I was curious about this but I didn't want to ask Elaine because I know I won't be comfortable discussing Josh with her, for reasons I don't know.

"I"m your protector"
