Witch ~ Rim Of The World

Prologue

One Year Ago...

"Supernatet!"
     A wall of Guns surrounded me, all pointing to my targets as i walked through the crowd of Alien Dogs with ease, my hands raised in the air as i stopped in the middle of all the dogs and smirked, holding my hands up and thrusting them down to the ground, banging my fists onto the floor.

  "Ignis!"
     I screamed, a circle of Indigo coloured fire with a fiery red centre encircled the building, Gunfire was heard from every direction aswell as a handful of screeched and shrieks of sheer pain that was hoarse and rough.

My small body floated into the air, my arms outstretched behind me and i felt adrenaline running through my veins.Pure chaos was going on around me and i was at its center, the birth place of it all.I felt like a sadist, watching all of this death around me with content.

Afterall, in my mind, it was fair.These dogs kill my family, i kill them.I felt like a whole different person.Before all this madness, i was that one goody-two-shoes bookworm and teacher's pet who followed all the rules and who everyone adored.What happened to me...

I remember attending Wentworth Military Academy before it shut dowm, all the girls there bullying me and calling me a freak although attending all those classes about respect and equality.My powers are how i got expelled.These damn powers.Now its time for them to pay off.

   "MORS!"

  Present...

    I twirled my fingers around in the air, my legs resting on the table as i faced the opposite way to a Two-Way Mirror that was made of Metallic Glass.A metal door blocked my way from escaping along with rusted bars.I know what you may think, Why Can't You Just Abracadabra your way out or something?Good question.Because i made that very door and bars myself to keep my Trouble-making Homo Magi kind from escaping prison.If only i knew that it was i that would be the one hiding behind those bars.

  A Black Ace from my fresh deck of playing cards spun around and danced in the air in the way i made it to, an aura of a Royal Blue shade surrounding my hands like a glove which allowed me to control the card in the first place.I looked towards the door just before a dark man with a decorated forest green suit came into the room, looking at me with a stern face of which i returned.

  "Talia,"
     He said and looked at my legs, indicating that he didn't like them on the table and preferred them on the floor.Instead of taking them off, i kept them on in a way to piss him off.He let out an agitated growl and sat down in the seat infront of me and i smiled in satisfaction.

  I waved my hand up and the flare around my hands died out as did my power over the card.The Ace card flew up into the air as i caught it with one hand, twirling it around my fingers as i looked at General Khoury in anticipation.He wouldn't of called basically a Criminal Omen for a petty thing, this has to be big.Khoury straightened out a bunch of files clipped together and let out a sigh, looking to me.

  "What did i do?..."
   I said in a faked scared tone, pouting like a child as i cross my arms over my chest, staring at Khoury with pleading eyes.He let out another aggravated sigh and i took notice of how he clenched his fist then relaxed it once again, tossing me a file.

  Warily, i flip through the pages to see many clear photos of some man with platinum coloured hair and pale skin, he had this worried and panicked expression on his face and i he was turned around.

"Wow...a man!Glad your finally showing your true colours!You know, i just had a hunch that you weren't strai- "

"Dietrich!"

  I slouched into my seat and pouted in a childish manner, leaning back into my seat as Khoury regained his composure and cleared his throat, cocking his head while trying to probably resist the urgr to choke me then and there, no matter my age.This might be some bounty or something, that guy must be dangerous as hell for them to call me up.

"I....Need your help."
He said bluntly yet reluctantly, sounding as if it hurt him to say that.I widened my eyes and scoffed, looking at him with disbelief.

"You needed my help with wiping out those Demon Dogs, yet i got thrown back into my cell with a younger sister begging me to come back and take her away from her Foster Family!"
I snapped at Khoury, my hands clenched aswell as my jaw and the General looked at me sympathetically and with regret.I shuffled in my chair, with this opportunity, i could take away my whole sentence depending on the damage this man did....i could finally see my sister again.

"I'll do this..but i'm pulling the strings in this situation."
I demanded looking straight into Khoury's eyes as mine turned into an amber colour, showing i wasn't being my Trickster or Mischievous self, i wasn't playing my usual games.I was being serious, which is extremely rare.

I've been in here long enough to know the names and life of the vast majority of the guards in the Supermax Prison they hold me in.Which is why i use that to my advantage and play little tricks on them like flashpaper or wedgies, sometimes controlling minds for long enough that i don't get caught but make them look like fools.And again, it feels like One in a Million of where i feel really generous and kind, of which i lend an ear for some guards to just speak their mind out.
Recently one of my Guards called Dean, my favourite one, told me how he and his wife had this big fight.
Threatened to divorce him and stuff if he didn't spend more time with her, except that he can't really do that because of his job.Since the Supermax job has a big arse pay, he sends most of it to his family back in the Philippines since their condition isn't good.Although i couldn't sympathise all of it since he prefers being around people.

Hence why he knew i will do it to the full extent.Khoury smiled and extended out his hand, me taking it and sending him a promising look.If it means getting out of that shitty prison again, i'll apprehend this bastard.I mean, aslong as i'll be working alone then everything is perfect.

I love being left alone and doing things independently.

"Also...you'll be working with the Heroes from last year."
