Living Hell || Damian Wayne

Chapter 8

I sat up in my bed rubbing my eyes. I stretched my back cracking at a stretch, I yawned and slumped back down. I tossed the covers off of my legs shivering from the cold. I swung my feet over my bed and yawned again tears forming in the corners of my eyes. I stood up and walked to the bathroom. I looked at my reflection and memories of last night popped into my mind.

I hunched over the sink turning on the warm water. I cupped my hands and splashed the water over my face, I grabbed a towel and dried my face. I stood up and touched my back. "I'll have to ask, Mrs. Wentree about this" I said to myself I walked out of the bathroom into my bed room grabbing my sweatshirt.

I putt it on while walking running into my wall in the process, i groaned and I putt on my sweatshirt fully glaring at the wall. I walked around it and into the kitchen, Axel happily munched on his food. I patted his back letting him know of my presence.

I stood on my toes and opened the cabinet, I climed up onto the counter and grabbed the cereal box. I set the box down, I hoped off the counter. I closed the cabinet and grabbed the box. I grabbed a bowl and putt them on the island. I grabbed some milk out of the fridge and set it down.

I grabbed the cereal box and poured in the peanut butter panda puffs. Then poured milk in. I grabbed a spoon and sat at the table eating my cereal. I finished my cereal and putt everything away, I washed my bowl and set it in the sink.

I walked out of the kitchen and into my room grabbing a white long sleeve shirt, a green jacket, black jeans, and my brown boots. I grabbed a gray scarf and wrapped it around my neck. I walked into my bathroom and brushed my hair and teeth.

I putt in my contacts and walked out. I grabbed my purse and grabbed my phone off the charger putting it in my bag. I grabbed the keys and walked into the kitchen. "Axel, do you want to come?" I asked. I herd thumping and Axel appeared in front of me.

"Okay" He said. I walked into the kitchen and grabbed his collor and leash. He formed into his German Shepherd form and I putt his collor on, I latched the leash on the collor and we walked out of the apartment. I locked the door. "Ah hah!" I jumped as the lady jumped out of no where.

"What?" I asked. "You're not allowed to have pets here" She said. "Says who?" I asked. "Says every apartment in the city" She said. "Well I clean up after him, and he doesn't shed. I think he's fine" I said. "Oh ya? What if I go tell the manager" She said smirking thinking she has me. "Go ahead, when I sighed the paper work, it said nothing a out not having pets. It said we are allowed to own small pets, as long as we take care of them, and maintain everything" I said.

"I it...it..i..." she stuttered. "Good bye" I said walking away. Axel growled and walked behide me. "Stupid little brat" She said. I walked into the elevator glaring at her then the doors closed. "That women is so troublesome" I said sighing. "Does she do this alot?" Axel asked. "Yes, quite alot" I said rolling my eyes.

The elevator dinged and we walked through the doors. I walked out of the door and into the cold. "Jeez it's cold" I said hugging my jacket closer. "Where are we going exactly?" Axel asked. "We are going to see Mrs. Wentree" I said. "Oh okay" Axel said.

We walked down the sidewalk passing people on there way to wherever. We walked to the park and to the bench. I saw Mrs. Wentree there "Atara, come sit. I see you brought your friend" She smiled. "Yes. This Axel" I said. "Adorable" She smiled. "So somthing weird happened last night" I said. "Did you get your wings?" She asked. "Y-yes, how did you know" I asked. "Please dear, I know exactly what should be happening" She smiled. "Right" I said.

We talked more about my awaking. "Now, let's go and we may start your training " She smiled. "Training?" I asked. "Yes, training" Mrs. Wentree pulled my into a small patch of woods. She took her finger and slid it in the air. "what?" I asked. Then a small opening opened and she stepped in, she grabbed my hand and pulled me in as well. I felt my body falling in mid air. "Ahhhhhhhhh!!!" I screamed then landed in some trees, I went face first in as branch. "Ow" I said. Then the tree branch broke and I fell again.

I landed on some grass. "Gah!" I let out a grunt of pain and stood up coughing up some grass, Axel sat next to me fine. I looked around and saw a purple sky, and ruins of some sort. "Where are we?" I asked. "Another relm, where humans nor demons may find us" Mrs. Wentree said. "Now, let me explain your powers" She said sitting down. "You have a mix or your parents powers, which means, that you have your own unique powers" She said.

"Like what?" I asked. "That is for you to find out, now, we are going to be learning how to summon a weapon" She smiled. "Stand up, and I want you think about the weapon you want, clear your mind of everything, except of the weapon you want" She said. "Got it" I said. Axel ran be hide a pillar. I rolled my eyes and closed them.

I thought of a sword. Nothing. "Why isn't this working?" I asked. "It takes time, your mind is a clump of messy pieces of memory and thoughts. You need to collect them" She said. "Let's try this" She sat down and patted a spot next to her. "It want you to try meditating" She said. "Meditating?" I asked in a dumb tone. "Do you want your power or not?" she asked. "Alright, alright" I said sitting down.

"The only way for you to learn how to use your power is to set your mind at peace" She said. She closed her eyes and sat there. I closed mine as well. "Clear your mind, let your mind relax" She said. I sat and then opened my eyes, I was in space? I looked around and noticed I was floating. "Hello?" I asked my voice echoed.

"Mama!" I herd a voice. I turned around and saw a little girl running towards a women who's face I couldn't see. "Look! I found a flower!" She smiled. "Is that-" I saw a man walk up to the little girl and swing her around laughing. His face was blurry as well. "Papa!" The little girl laughed.

The image faded and another one came. "Four games in and row!" Yelled the man smiling. "Don't be so cocky dear" the women said. "I want to win!" The little girl said determined. "Oh ya?" Said the man. "Yes!" She said. "Let's go!" Said the man. The laughs faded and a new image came. "Get away from her!" The man yelled. Fire surrounded everything. "Zora! Run!" The man yelled. "Mama?" The girl asked scared ash covered her face, her white dress torn and dirty.

"It's alright dear" She said. A laugh came to ear, as red eyes came into veiw. "Hello, dear sister" said a deep voice. "Luken" She said in disbelief . "Why Luken?!" She yelled. "Mama?" The girl asked. "Zora!" Yelled the man. "Shut up traitor!" Yelled Luken he walked up and went to stab the man. "No!" A burst of light came and the women held a golden sword in hand. She knocked Luken over, but he had cut the man. A slash across his eye and nose. "Run Zora" The man said.

"Mama papa!" The little girl yelled. She was tied up with snakes. "No!" The man and women yelled. "Atara!" The women yelled but demons came and cut them off from veiw. I gasped and my eyes opened. I looked around and saw I was in a bedroom. "I see you're up" Mrs. Wentree said she sat on a chair across the room. "Wha-" She cut me off. "Lost memories. You unlocked the memories you had forgotten long ago" She said she didn't make eye contact. "The man and women" I said. "Your parents, yes" She said nodding. "I couldn't see there faces. Why?" I asked. "You haven't fully uncovered your memories. That takes time" she said. "What happened to them?" I asked. "That I do not know" She said looking away. I looked down. "Where am I?" I asked. "My house, you. You where in your trace for a while" she said. "How long?" I asked.

"A month"
