3: the trials

This is where I must leave you" he handed me a torch

"follow your heart willamean your special, I can feel it."

With that he turned and left, The door disappeared once it closed.

I walked farther into the room and looked around I couldn't see vary well so I walked forward.

The room split into 9 paths and my eyes fell on the one farthest to the right.

I started walking before I processed the feeling.

I needed to go down that path, I walked to the entrance and began walking down the corridor.

Another path to the left opens up but I kept walking straight a few minutes later another path opend up and I turned down this one.

The next time the path split I kept going straight I went straight for the next few turn offs.

About 10 minutes into the corridor another path came that I turned down.

I walked on this path for less than a minute before I turn down the next path.

I walked quickly and turned down the next path.

As soon as I did the corridors dissolved and I was standing in a circle of objects floating about 2 feet above the ground.

I was in a dark room, A circle of people stood aways away from the objects.

What is this a cult?

I feel like I'm in a zoo only I'm the animal.

The object in front of me was ironically a bunny.

I turn to my right an eye made out of what looks like amythist was next.

I turn to my right and see a white feather.

What are these for I wonder silently. Next I saw a candle and then a glass water drop.

After that was a flute

And then a green stone leaf.

After that was a pink heart shaped stone.

Last I turn and see a black feather quill.

As soon as I turned twords it, it started glowing it starts spiraling around me leaking black ink.

It spelled my new name and the flew into my chest.

My hands started burning and I look down at my hands.

My fists are clenched so I open them.

When I did a book hovered in my right hand, I look at my left and see a feathered quill floating above my hand. My hands stop burning and I look at the remaining objects turning around slowly. The eye flys up to eye level and glows softly and flys slowly twords me as soon as it touches my face I cry out in pain. It feels like my face is on fire. I fall to my knees and the objects circle slowly around me slowly.

The glass water drop flys over my face and turns to actual water, it falls on me and everywhere it touches burns like it was acid.

The liquid drips down my entire body. The leaf floats in fron if me and grows to twice my size and goes from green to red to yellow then brown.

It fell on me covering me completely. My entire body was on fire.

The leaf disappeared slowly like it was soaked into my skin.

The candle floated to me and lit my hair on fire, I screamed and shook my head, but instead of burning my hair turned red where ever the fire touched it.

I see the feather float behind me and there was suddenly pain so excruciating I thought I was dying.

Then almost as suddenly as it started all the pain stopped.

All the remaining objects disappeared and I stoop up.

A intricate gold rimed full length mirror appeared in front of me.

I saw my reflection and tried to scream but couldn't.

My black hair was completely red, I had blue Tattoos on my face and arms my eyes were black and white , I had brown skin. But that wasn't even the most shocking part.

I had wings, like huge angel wings. My legs gave out but instead of falling my wings beat steadily holding me up. My moms voice echoed in my head.

"I dont care what your feeling, never and I mean never show how your really feeling.

Stay composed and you will be in control."

I took a deep breath closed my mouth and supported my self.

The mirror disappeared and the words.

Willamean

6th degree hybrid

"Willy" I hear bellas hushed voice of horror. I flinch and turn around I open my mouth to respond but I choke on guilt and close my mouth.

I swallow and compose myself standing up straight.

I swallow my guilt and stare at bell coldly.

she just stared at me in frozen horror.

"You shouldn't have come here" Ana's harsh voice came from behind me. I grinned coldly and turned around.

"Oh really?" I say sweetly she steps twords me and I meet her half way.

"I'll make your life hell"she hisses in my face.

Shes taller than me but I got in her face.

"Oh really I remember you saying that before, all you did then was ruin your life more what makes now different."

I whisper in her ear she laughs "this is my turf now, also I'm not the one who drove are parents apart am i?" anger flares through me and energy seeps out of me but I smile and turn to away from her.

The tall lady from before came up to me shock written clearly in her face.

"You are the first angel hybrid in over a 1000 years" she says calmly and gently.

I dont reply I just look at her not showing any emotion on my face even tho in a nervous wreck inside.

I feel Septimus behind me but not like he's physically touching me, I just know he's there.

He walks up behind me and his arm brushes mine.

"Mistress marissa I would like to swear my allegiance to willamean as her advisor, do I have permission?"he says clearly but humbly.

Mistress marissa smiled. "Of course but you may want to think about it first, once you give her your oath you are loyal to her till she or death releases you."

Septimus smiles and leans over me to whisper something but I already know what he's gonna ask.

I whisper "I dont mind that your gay." so quietly only he could hear.

He smiles and turns to look at me he holds his hand out and I do the same.

He clasps my forearm with his hand and I copy him.

Are arms glow yellow and he looks me in the eyes.

"I give you my solemn oath that I will be your advisor and loyal companion till you no longer want me.

Do you take my oath" he smiles softly and encourages me so I replie "I take your oath Septimus" are arms are released and a heart charm appears in the air.

I take it and open my left hand. The journal appears and a loop is attached to it by a piece of ribbon.

I put the charm on the loop and close my hand.

Wearyness sweeps over me and I just want to go back to our room.

I glance at Septimus and he nods like he understands what I want.

"Mistress are we allowed to go back to are room" he asks respectfully.

She nods and turns to the rest of the students.

Septimus walks towards the door and I follow staying composed.

I feel completely overwhelmed, like my senses are picking everything up.

I could feel every person in my vicinity, I knew exactly where they were and if I focused on them to hard I saw flashes of random images.

I was getting a really bad headache and a bunch of images of random people swarmed my head.

I started getting dizzy so I focused on Septimus and following him.

After what felt like forever of foggy dizzy pain, we reached a door I couldn't really tell where we were but Septimus opend the door and grabbed my hand and pulled me in the room.

He took me over to another door that opend for him.

He took me into the room and the door closed. My head started clearing. My legs buckled and my wings didn't help this time. Septimus caught me and hugged me. "Its okay dont cry" I didn't realize till he said that, but im crying silently he sits down on the floor still holding me "shh just go to sleep your exhausted" he says quietly. I nod and close my eyes to sleep but flashes of Brooklyns face cross my vision.

Guilt wells through me and I sob harder guilt choking me up.

"Willow can I use my empath ability to put you asleep?."

I could tell my pain was hurting him to. I nodded and he rocked me gently.

I felt calmness surge through me and I drifted peacefully into sleep.
