August. The name of one of the hottest months but her destiny is to become as cold as ice.
August left her life in Whitby to save everyone she loved, but she has to move on and deal with the few new problems in her life.
When she turns 18 she will...
I wandered around my room looking for the essentials that I would take back home. But I had to be discrete about what I took with me as they would notice if I took something obvious, so I shoved a few pairs of jeans in my red leather rucksack with a few pairs of socks and pants and a jumper with an under shirt but I had to get changed into something comfortable to travel in. I had to travel all that way without anyone noticing, that was going to be difficult. So whilst they were all away at the church now is the perfect time to leave. I put on my dragon ring as that was the last present my temporary parents got me for my 17th birthday. And I put on some comfy travelling clothes as it's a long flight .

I walked out the door almost forgetting the memories that are in that small cottage on the banks of Whitby Harbour, it is gorgeous when the sun hits the direct spot on the water and the sun reflects on my window. I ran back inside grabbing my favourite photo of me and Oscar at the fair eating cotton candy to remember him and with that I walked out of the door and I locked it with a click and I posted my key through the rusty letter slot in the middle of the door.
That was it.
I had already booked the flight weeks ago making sure I had my passport with me I got got in a taxi that drove me to Durham Tees Airport which was only 44 miles away as the further I go the less money I had. I arrived at the airport nicely as there wasn't much traffic late afternoon.
So I went inside and got through security fine and now all I had to do was wait for my flight as the time was 17:48 and my flight was at 20:20. I went around the shops and I suddenly spotted a WHS SMITHS shop I bought a book called The Trials Of Apollo by Rick Riordan, a pencil case with black and white stripes on it, some pencils and pens, a plain black note book and some mint mentos to eat on the plane. I also went into one of my favourite shops The Body Shop and bought myself some coconut hand cream with some peach lip balm as I noticed my lips had started to crack. It is now 20:00 so I start heading towards gate 14 in the west wing of the airport when all of a sudden they call out over the very crackly speaker...
"The T56GH flight to Romania has been delayed by two hours, we apologise for the delay..."
" Oh for Fudge sake!"
" Can August Blake go to the flight desk thank you" said the nice lady on the speaker. I went to the flight desk and there was a lady with her hair tied up in a big blonde bun which was done very neatly. I could smell The strongly scented hairspray from the other side of the desk.
" you have a plane waiting for you at gate number 2 with a man waiting for you and he said that he is flying you too Romania on a private jet but you'll have to be quick as you only have 25 minutes before he is scheduled to take off!" She spoke to me with a worried tone in her voice looking at me beadily in my eyes.
" Thank you" I say smiling at her. I don't get a smile back.
I was practically running down the airport to get to gate 2 on time and as soon as I turned the corner I saw him looking straight into my eyes with his palette of grey eyes.
" ... Darius?"
