"Hey! Whos there?!" A woman looking to be in her mid twenties holds a ball of light up illuminating the allyway. I hide behind a dollhouse box hoping the woman will go away.
She doesnt. In fact, she comes closer. She walks until she is just a few steps from my hiding spot. I now have a chance to notice that the ball of light is coming from her hand directly. I've never seen magic before only heard of it when passing people. From what id gathered only certain people could prefore magic but id never figured out how it was chosen. I caught myself staring but before I could turn and run she grabbed my hand, shed already seen me.
"Who are you?" She asked dragging me into the light. I struggled to find a way to show her I couldn't speak. I started waving my free hand pointing at my throat and sliding my hand across it showing that my throat was useless but she didn't understand.
"Are you threatening to kill me?" She got defensive and her white light ball started turning red like fire. I frantically shook my head no and before I could make a second attempt a man showed up from behind her.
"I think, isabelle, that hes trying to tell you he cant speak." He had a deep voice but for some reason instead of scaring me it was calming me down. He made her release my hand and he held out his for me to take.
"I'm oscar, and I see you've met my sister isabelle. I'm sorry she was rude to you she isnt quite used to normal human interaction. Now why is it you can hear well but not speak a word young man?" I looked at him dumbfounded. How was I supposed to delay THAT story across. I barely got the point across to the girl that I couldnt speak. After an awkward pause he realised the mistake and instead offered for me to go with them to their house where they might figure something out.
