It wasn’t the first time the girl messed up with the oldest child. Hell Vae knew neither of them wanted her around. Their words aren’t the indicator that spoke the loudest, more like the people’s actions, considering they would do anything to avoid her. Another mistake created by false hope by the Native American. No matter what the female did it always ended up like this. Ever extending darkness which is hidden by a false light at the tunnel’s end. “Sister, please think about your actions before finding a need to exert pain. Yes, this bitch deserves nothing more than a reminder of where her place is. Underneath our feet like the cockroach, she is, but grandmother has gained a liking to the useless savage,” The second oldest remarked in a cold tone. “Exactly. Which is why we must show grandmother the truth. I know this creature can’t actually play such a refined instrument. After all this animal was living with its own kind for years.” The girl said as she went to place another marking on the girl’s skin. Vae knew what the oldest woman wanted. It wasn’t hard to figure out considering there was no need for another strike. She wanted to see how much fear could be installed inside a single person. As if there was an invisible river filling inside the teenager’s soul, each inflicted wound being the unstable waves, which were intended to drown the girl in an instant. Yet, there wasn’t any pain to react upon after all this wasn’t the first time she was inside a river. Gasping for air in order to scream for help. The young man sighed as he leaned against the doorway. “Funny thing Erica. I’ve been to her practices ever since Mom discovered her talent. Sadly this beast is able to play more beautifully than any of us. Yet, I can’t help but agree with your opinion sister. As much as we can’t use violence to change our kin’s thoughts we can change this rotten little savage’s comfortable life. You see if you use your hands there’s evidence left behind without a cover-up. This brings up questions for our mother would want to ask us.” The male said as his figure shifted slightly towards the right. The woman seemed curious as her sibling moved towards them with a dark feeling creeping into the atmosphere. Vae had never felt anything like this before. The air around them seemed to have become heavier, as if all the oxygen was removed from the area, leaving just carbon lingering for them to breathe. A small step away from the other two was all it took to make the oldest form a satisfied smile upon her pink lips. Her figure shifting out of her younger sibling’s way, as if to encourage the man’s darkened, as the Native American’s breath caught inside her chest. Matthew took another step towards Vae, his hand extending outwards, as to grasp something from mid-air forcing the girl to attempt to lean backward in mid-step. Granted the motion’s timing was too late. The young man had managed to grasp the teenager’s arm, gently moving her towards his body, as another hand pushed right. A creaking sound echoed in the air followed by on single spine-chilling phrase. “Everyday your life will become a living hell.” [/i] [/hider] The young woman blinked a few times after the strawberries were formed by Nia. A sickening feeling flooding every single area within her stomach. It had been years since the girl had thought about those words. Even longer since Vae had ever thought about those sort of people. In all honesty, this was when the dark events began taking over her life. A single place where a person is to feel safe and loved by those who were considered family. Not a prison full of nothing but torture and pain caused by those around you. By those wanting nothing more than to blame their problems on an innocent bystander that processes a different talent than you. No one deserves a world covered in nothing but darkness which leads towards false hope from those closest to you. No one deserves to be closer than arm’s length anymore. If you let someone closer than this you’ll just be adding to the darkness inside. "P-please yourself, p-please." The woman stated in a kind voice making Vae snap into the present. A hand slowly crept towards her cheek, as if to wipe something away, only to end up removing nothing. She worked her eyes upwards with the ever so familiar blank look, but Nia would clearly see distrust shining inside the Native American’s eyes. As if this person was incapable of allowing others to cross an invisible wall that was created so long ago. [color=cc6600]” I’m very grateful for the offer but unfortunately, I must refuse both offers. I’ve only just met you, Miss. How do I know you’re not planning something behind my back? How do I know you’re not like the others? I don’t know your end goal in all of this. What you intend to gain by playing the role of protector and friend. Honestly, I would rather stay away from others and live my days in silence.”[/color] Vae said as she took a small step back from the happiness which surrounded Nia. After all, a world full of darkness could never coexist with one filled with nothing but light. The thought itself was nothing more than terrifying. After all, there was no hope left for the young woman yet here stood someone who was trying to reach out. Reach for the crying person dying within this cruel world. [color=cc6600]”I’ve bothered you enough Miss. Perhaps its best we separate after showing me the way to school. I’ll always be grateful for what you did today but its best not to get too close. Best forget about me. Pretend you never seen me or even interacted with me at all."[/color] The girl said as the feeling of fear filled her whole being just like that day.
