Chapter 2

"If you can even survive little miss Empathy." She snarled and turned around looking to the skies waiting for the almighty to meet her once more.

---Renaes POV---

I woke up in the forest. Everything was covered in snow and I was alone.

"Adam?" I called out. No answer. "Eros?" Again no answer. "Jefferson?!" I tried calling louder to have again no answer.

"Nolla?" I turned around to see a woman standing there in little clothing. My body instinctively threw a ball of some sort that I wasn't holding earlier just a moment ago.

"Don't sneak up on me like that." The words came fom my lips but it was not my voice.

"Sorry. Come, we spotted a human civilization." My head nodded, I tried to fight but it wasn't reacting otherwise, my body began following her, against all my efforts I couldn't command my own body.

"Wait.. is this the story of Nolla? The Nolla from the story?" Suddenly the woman and myself froze in place.

"If you wish to break this curse Renae. Then you need to live it. I agree with Nolla. We changed her name in this... simulation type situation because she wishes for no one to know her name. You need to make the right choices if you want to survive." I heard a voice say.

"What if I dont want any part of this?" I snapped.

"Then you will perish and your children won't be able to survive. If you don't break the curse then the secrets of mythical creatures will be revealed to the evil world and your kind will be purged. Heed my warning. Keep a level head and do as you are asked."

"Fine. If I keep a level head and wake up to all the people I love killed, I will find you and anyone affiliated to Nolla and make sure its a slow painful death." I spat at the air.

"Noted. I shall see you soon darling." I took a deep breath and just with that breath of air we began walking again. Taking the voices advice into consideration I did everything I needed to do. I followed the woman- or rather witch to an area that seemed to be a camp. I was confused because the areas around us was absolutely freezing and even tho the clothes we wore was so small and revealing we were still warm.

"How does this work?" I pressed a snowball against my stomach feeling no cold.

"Nolla? You're the one who made this spell. You should know better then anyone else how it works." The woman laughed.

"Kai! You found Nolla?" Another witch ran towards us. I looked at the woman who found me in the forest and assumed she was Kai.

"Yes. Kai found me. Hera, have you found the location of the humans?" The first sentence was my own words but the second was not mine. I shook my head at my inability in control and just continued with the story.

"Yes I did. The leaders son wanted us to stay. We need to pack up right now." She started rolling up matts and tossing them in bags.

"You talked to them?!" Kai screamed.

"Nolla talked to him first! I was just following her." Hera cowardly answered.

"Dammit Nolla!" She slapped the back of my head. Instinctively I grabbed her hand and felt fire coming out of my hand.

"No!" I screamed at myself pulling my hand back.

"Nolla?" Hera looked at me.

"Yes?" I looked back at her and placed my hand at my side.

"Are you okay? You didn't punish Kai for hitting you like you always do.." she scratched her head.

"Yeah. Are you okay?" Kai looked at her arm as the slight burn faded away.
