I let out a breathy laugh and walked off stage over to Devon and Chase. I was panicking internally, it felt like my body was going to explode if I didn't keep moving. So that what I did, I started pacing back and forth endlessly taking quick shallow breaths. "Saph... You ok?" Chase asked me completely oblivious.
I ran my hands through my hair, making the ponytail come udon and elastic fall to the ground. "No, I'm not ok! I'm going to get the beating of a lifetime!" I yelled at him, but the yelling only made me feel worse, and I kept pacing.
Devon and Chase shared a look and I could tell they were speaking over the link. I put my hands on my hips and glared at them, "Have something to say, say to my face." I snapped at them making them flinch. "Well..." Chase started but that was all he could say. I gave Devon a glare but he backed up a step slowly.
I let out a groan and ran my hands through my hair again. "I'm going back." I let out a sigh and pulled them both into a hug, "Sorry I snapped. I'll see you both in the morning." I told them and let go of the hug and started walking towards my house, not giving them a chance to respond.
'Sapphire, you really sure you want to put up with this today?' Lilac asked me sighing, I chuckled slightly at her, 'Since when do I ever have a choice?' I asked her back sadly. I pushed open the door and was greeted with the backhand to the face almost immediately.
This made me fall on the floor by the door. To be honest, this was what I was expecting fully. One time when I went to get dressed I looked over in my mirror and realized I have hundreds of scars all over my body. From burns to cuts to stabs. All over my torso, collarbone, legs, and arms. The only part of me that was spared was my face so that no one would expect anything.
I stayed down, I knew that if I didn't show submission then I would be beaten harder. So I forced out a whimper. "Pathetic mutt! Get up and get my dagger!" My aunt yelled at me and yanked me to my feet by my hair.
I concealed my emotions and trudged up the stairs to my aunt's room. Once in the room, I let out a sigh and opened up the weapons drawer. Yes, I know. My aunt has a weapons drawer. Surprising! You may be asking why I put up with her. I don't.
Taking the dagger concealed in a cloth I carefully undid the cloth to reveal a pure silver dagger. Careful not to touch the blade I very carefully went back down the stairs. I found my Aunt had answered the door and Chase and Devon where there.
I gave them a look from behind my aunt's shoulder, but they couldn't see me so I listened in on their conversation. "We are here to bring Sapphire to the academy." That was Chase who had his arms crossed over his chest and was giving a death glare to my aunt. My aunt shook her head sadly, "I'm sorry but you are going to have to leave. I don't know where she is at the moment." She told him a sad smile on her face.
I scuffed my foot on the ground a tiny bit, making Devon look up at me. He was always good at hearing. I moved my finger to my mouth in a 'shhh' motion, then I pointed up as in, 'I'm going through the window' then dashed back up the stairs quietly, the silver dagger hilt still tightly in my grasp.
I creaked open the window at the end of the hall and looked down. I never really was one for heights. That's why dropping 4 stories was going to be a problem. I took a breath and was about to jump before I remembered the dagger. I dropped it down first, it makes a soft thump on the grass.
I let out the breath and jumped. I was falling for about 5 seconds before I hit the ground, my legs crumpled and it sends strong painful shivers all the way from my legs through my body. I kept in a yelp of pain and bit the inside of my lip, sending a burst of metallic taste through my mouth accidentally.
