Chapter One
My eyes fluttered opened to unfamiliar surroundings. I jumped up almost immediately, but was to dizzy to stay there. I stayed with my back down on the cot. I heard a chuckle from the corner of the room, but stayed staring upwards. I didn't want to look there, did I? Of course I did.
My head snapped in that direction. I saw a man, a beautiful man. He had tanned skin from the desert sun and raven black hair. His blue eyes studied me as white teeth shined at me.
"Look whose awake," the man said. He approached, leaving me to back away slowly until my back hit the wall behind me. He put his hands up slightly. "It's okay. I won't hurt you," he whispered. "What's your name?"
"Elisa," I said looking at him. "Who are you?"
"You can call me the Prophet," he said as he stood his whole height. He towered over me and I looked away. "You said something, when I picked you up. How do you know it?"
I looked up and raised an eyebrow. "I was asleep, so I didn't know what I said." I felt fear crawl through me and my fingers tingle with energy. Oh god no, I thought and fought it back. The Prophet leaned closer to me face, now cold and serious.
"How the hell do you know the name Jinxx?"
That's when it happened. The Prophet was pushed back from me. My powers were going crazy. I balled my fist until my nails drew blood at me palms to stop myself from burning the place to the ground. The man stared at me with a slight smile.
"So you have powers too?" he asked, to which I gave a small nod. "Now how do you know Jinxx's name?"
"H-he's my brother," I stumbled out.
"What?!" I heard another voice exclaim. From out of the shadows, another man emerged. I blinked once, almost seeing my mother in him.
That had to be Jinxx.....
