A Sun Lit Path

Chapter 5 "The Truth About Me"

      Police soon arrived at the scene arresting Cameron in the process. One weird thing I notice was that Cameron had purple lines around her neck but with Scorpio, he look like he had no emotions. It's almost like he has done this before. I looked at him and asked, 

"Why call me leader?" 

"I'll tell you in a bit. For now follow me. We are going to our house." Scorpio said 

"Our?" I asked confusingly 

The police evacuated everyone from the school. No teachers, no students, and no janitors where in the school. Scorpio and I walked out of the school and made it into my house. I ask Scorpio, 

"Um this is my house?" 

"I know." He said "Just come in." 

He opened the door for me and low and behold my friends where here. Siting around the couch. 

"Come, take a seat. We gotta get down to business." Scorpio said to me as he pulled up a seat.

As I sat down the 3 security monitors from yesterday surrounded me like I was some sort of king. 

"Firstly let me introduce myself. My name is Lake but call me Scorpio." 

"Why Scorpio?" I asked confusingly

"Because it's the Zodiac I represent. Us 12 and you all represent a celestial god like being called Zodiacs." 

"Zodiacs." 

"Zodiacs are kinda like a power. If you are royal blood then you are destine to become one. You can tell which one you are by the symbol of you dominant hand." 

I quickly looked at my right hand and saw that he was right! The Leo symbol glowing with golden light! 

"But what does this have to do we me?" I said 

"Let me start from the beginning. Our Leo died. His name was Felix. He died from multiple gun shots around his body. We tried to save him but he soon died when Virgo used her vines. You are the next Leo, Leo. You are royal blood!" 

"How did you know that I had royal blood in me?" I asked shockingly 

"Medical records." I looked over behind me and the security monitor with the purple ponytail said that. 

"Sorry about that. Her name real name is Sage but call her Sagittarius. As you can already tell Sage has the Sagittarius power. She is a fire attribute that can summon a mechanical bow and also have unlimited arrows at her disposal. But like she said, yes, we searched for your medical records about your blood. Since you took medicine that could've messed up your testosterone levels we put two and two together." 

"Is that even legal?" Xavier asked 

"Yeah it is." The tom boy with the nose ring talked. 

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Mauve but call me Taurus. I'm a earth attribute that can summon bull horns on the side of my head." Taurus said.

"And I am Coro, call me Aquarius" said the one with the loose neck tie. "I am a air attribute that can summon a vase around my right hand and shoot out compressed air that hits hard like a cannon ball." 

"I feel like at this point let's do some introductions." said Scorpio. "My name is Lake but call me Scorpio. I am a water attribute that can summon at 15 feet long scorpion tail and shoot out poisonous water." 

I heard the oven dinged and turned my head to face the oven. A girl with long green glittery hair was in a pink kitchen apron. She opens the oven and pulls out a tray full of cookies and says, 

"Cookies are ready!" She comes over here taking off the apron and say, "My name is Rosemary but call me Virgo. I'm a earth attribute that can turn my hands into rose vines with horns, I can also heal people's bones if they are injured." 

Once the cookies cooled down another girls brings them over to the coffee table. She has very short hair yellow-greenish hair. She says, "My name is Mercury call me Gemini. I am a air attribute that can summon two swords, yes I duel wield." 

Scorpio turned his head in a angry motion and said, "What do you think you're doing?" 

Two boys where carrying a carpet that appeared to be from one of our rooms.

"You haven't introduce yourselves to our new leader! Come on shake his hand or something." Scorpio said in a happy tone. 

"Ah yes let me introduce myself." A boy with very long brown hair came over to me to shake. He shakes my hand and says, "My name is Von but call me Capricorn. I am a earth attribute that can turn my hair into a mermaid tail. I can also summon earthquakes." 

A boy with short sea foam green hair came to shake my hand as well. He says, "My name is Finn but call me Pisces. I'm a water attribute and can summon brass knuckles." 

Capricorn and Pisces made their way out the door while opening it for 2 other people. A boy with sliver hair and a goth girl with white hair. They noticed me and already knew whats about to come. 

"Hi my name is Kasper. Call me Cancer and no I do not have cancer. I'm a water attribute that can summon four crab like claws on my shoulders and my hips. I can shoot very hot water and very cold water from them." 

The girl with the white hair came up to me and say, "The name's Persephone but you should call me as Aires. I am a fire attribute that can summon a double sided reapers staff and I can summon hell fire and no I am not satanic." 

Cancer and Aries both take a seat. While Scorpio is talking a girl with dark gray hair comes down the stairs like she just woken up she comes over to me and says, 

"Name Lilac, me Libra, attribute air, weapon shield, goodnight." Libra walks up the stairs presuming she is going back to bed.  

"Back to what I was saying-" Scorpio was interrupted by a boy with purple hair. 

"Sorry to interrupt but my name is Ophiuchus and I am a electric attribute. I have a staff that can summon lighting okay sorry bye!" Ophiuchus goes back into his room. 

"Okay can we no more interruptions? Alright now time for business. Cancer and Aries, what did you find?" 

Cancer spoke, "We went over to District 6 House 3, which Cameron was living there  at the time. We didn't get much but we did hear the same thing over and over again. On the night of the first day of school Cameron went to use the bathroom but when she was in the bathroom everyone in the house heard the screams of Cameron. Nobody checked on her but in the morning everyone saw the "new"Cameron. You know the hot one? Anyway we checked her bathroom and once I sat on the toilet I felt something touched me. I quickly jumped up and saw five purple and pink suction cups but they were small. Me and Aries quickly cut them and put them in a bag which they stopped moving."

Cancer showed everyone the suction cups and gave it to Scorpio. 

"Thank you." he said "I'll give it to Virgo once our meeting is over." 

We quickly chat and talked about our day. I'm now a leader of a crime fighting organization. I'm a bit nervous but I think I can do really good! At the corner of I saw Capricorn and Pisces carrying more and more stuff from Paige's room. I got out of my seat and rushed to his room where the door wasn't closed all the way. I opened the door and saw all of Paige's stuff from his room where completely gone like they just renovated the room! All that's left is a cardboard box in the center.
