Mia opened me the whole truth and returned me to the scenes from what happened. It reminded me of all the things that I shouldn’t do. Perhaps she wanted me to understand what happened. From the moment I opened my eyes, I realized that the most important thing in my life is Mia. I felt afraid knowing that she can’t never come back again.
Orenda and Willow save Lucas from Amherst while Trisha and I bring us back to Atenowa. It was almost a week ago and here I am. I’m just like I used to do. I go to the University of Atenowa to preach about magic. Trisha became my best friend after those things happened. Sometimes I blame myself and there's guilt in my heart when I took her to the place of humans that is forbidden in Atenowa. I put her life in danger. But, I found something strange about her and it seems she had lost her memory. But, maybe that’s all for her good and for me. Not remembering all the bad things that happened.
Mia, my other half, was turned into a beautiful creature, she's still the same who always cares and looks after me.
Funny things about her were she'd liked to stay inside the bottle, so I don't have a choice either. I always carry the bottle where Mia lives now. It would be a great idea to watch me against the evil forces who want to take me and for what reason? I don't have an idea.
Even Orenda and Willow don't have an answer to give about that thing. I tried to ask Lady Brume, but she refused to answer me. She just gave me a sigh and frowned. After that she just left me alone puzzled.
At first, I thought that staying in Atenowa will be cool, but as the days go by, it gets harder for me to live. It's hard for me to breathe. I felt that there are lies that bounds beyond the corner of the Atenowa. Whatever it is? I need to find out.
My eyebrows are raised, and horizontal wrinkles appear on my forehead when Trisha comes over me. She pulled me and held my hand and hurriedly took me outside the University of Atenowa.
Wrinkles appear at the corner of her eyes when she smiles. I could see her joyful feeling and I am wondering why she feels that way. Is there something good that is happening?
My eyes widen and my eyebrows raise when I see Lilith performing a magic trick. It surprised me when I saw her that she was able to fly just like my grandmother taught me.
I crossed my arms, placing in front of my chest, watching her movements and her magic tricks that she used to do.
“Don't you think she looks wonderful? “Trisha said with amusement in her voice. I just shrugged my shoulders and my eyes glued to Lilith, and observed what she was doing.
I could notice that she expressed an exaggerated sigh and she landed with a rigid posture, crossing her arms and her looks penetrating me.
“You! “She pointed her finger at me.
I just shrugged my shoulders and walked away from her. That makes her furious at me. I don't want to waste my energy arguing with Lilith. There are a lot of things to be considered. A lot of problems that I need to solve on my own. About Lucas, about Mia and finding myself lost. I want to bring back the real me. No one really cares that all I want is just to live like a normal teenage girl. No taboo, no fear of hiding.
But before I take a single step, Lilith grabs my wrist and tries to stop me. Her eyes are too sharp. She gave me a hostile glare.
“You're a bitch! “Her eyes hardened and narrowed into slits as she confronted me.
“Take your hands off me, before I do wrong to you.”
“Oh! I'm scared. “Lilith gave a sigh of disgust.
“Leave me alone. I don't want to fight with you.
“Oh, really?”
Lilith pushes me harder away from the crowd, which makes everyone surprised. No one cared to stop Lilith from hurting me, there were fears in their face. All of them were icy with panic because of Lilith. Their eyes terrified and fear paralysed them. I don't even make a move to fight back at her. I step back and walk away with her. I feel Lilith's anger. She bent out of shape, bristling, and a stormy look on her face.
“Go on leave. You don’t belong here… You will just put Atenowa in danger.
I stopped walking when I heard those words. My body went cold with dread and fear fluttered in my stomach, a state of feeling that I couldn’t understand.
Suddenly my tear was forming, but I wouldn’t let it fall. I need to be brave in front of Lilith. In front of the people of Atenowa.
But, there was a riddle running through my head. How did Lilith say those things? What have I done? Is it the barrier that I tried to destroy on the night I went to the place of a human to save Lucas from Amherst? How did she know about it?
I feel exhausted. My strength vanished away. Suddenly I was weakened as if all the elements of my power had been lost.
I ran away from the crowd. I knew that Lilith felt great from what she did to me. I don't understand why she hated me so much. From the day I came here, she has never been nice to me.
I ran fast as I could. The tears that I hold back were suddenly falling like a rain. I went to the place away from the Atenowa. A secret place that I discovered when Orenda and Willow brought me back to Atenowa.
She sat on the lawn weeping silently. She was overwhelmed by sadness and fear of herself. A fear for her loved ones that something might happen wrong with them. It repeatedly came back to her mind of what Lilith said to her. Is it right that she just left Atenowa?
All of a sudden, a cold wind wrapped her body. She looked up at the cloud when she saw a strange creature blocking the sun. She stood up when she recognized that it was Smokey flying high; she extended her arms and let Smokey land.
“There you are Smokey. Nice to see you again. “
Smokey looked at Thana's eyes. His black eyes turned gray. At that moment a shadowy image reflected in her eyesight. Thana's trembling and freezing moment when she sees an image that Smokey showed to her.
