Away. ( Part 1.)

Pov. Izzy

Three days.

boring.

I must confess that I miss her, I think I am attached to the girl with the blue eyes and her company every morning when we wake up and sit on the porch of my house to wait for the sun to rise once and for the night when we sit on the porch again and we talked about anything until it was late.

Oh, shit!

I'm really attached to Valentina.

But what can I do if her company is pleasant.

Damn time she got suspended for three days.

And damn time her moms called asking her to go to New Orleans to get some documents about whatever and send them to them.

I take a deep breath trying to focus my attention on the class after all when the girl comes back she will need my notes, I look at Sarah who had her head on my shoulder almost asleep and then I shake my shoulder just to irritate her.

- You'll have to do better if you want to piss me off. - Sarah says smiling and I roll my eyes.

- I didn't mean to irritate you. - I do the sly and she pinches me and I return the pinch.

- Hmm... - Sarah mumbles, pretending to be thoughtful. -I think I know the reason for her restlessness. - she says with an annoying little smile.

- And what would be the reason? - I ask and she puts her hand over her mouth.

- Valentina. - she answers laughing. - The fact that she traveled without telling you if she was going to kiss you or not is driving you crazy. -she continues and I roll my eyes. - Although you're already the crazy one in town and I'm the delinquent and her evil partner and once we took the little yellow chick that didn't fit in our hand and set it on fire and became two movie super villains. - mocks our unprivileged status in the city.

- First of all, I didn't need to be reminded of this detail about the kiss that wasn't going to happen, because she was joking and so was I. - I say and Sarah rolls her eyes and then closes them pretending to be sleeping while I talk. - Second, this joke with the yellow chick was very strange, it really looks like it was a chick, but not the yellow and fluffy chick. - Completely confused and Sarah opens her eyes and makes a face.

- Isabelle Ballard and Sarah Miller, would you like to share something with the class? - asks teacher Yakuto crossing his arms while facing Sarah and me.

- No teacher Yakult, the chat here is between best friends and you don't have gina, so you can't be part of this conversation about menstruation and waxing. - Sarah says and I lower my head feeling several eyes in our direction.

Why does Sarah do this?

- If you continue with the side conversations and then come with these jokes, you will be expelled from my class. - says the teacher and Sarah smiles nodding.

- As if I called for a boring yogurt class to shit walking and spoiled. - Sarah grumbles and I hold back the urge to laugh.

I hear a knock on the classroom door, but I don't care, but when the teacher says to come in and I hear that voice asking him to go to the door, I quickly adjust myself in my chair and inadvertently make Sarah bump her head against mine, but I don't care. for pain.

- Jeez fire in the ass just hear the voice of Valentina that blinks and does shit. - Sarah grumbles and I would even counter, but I'm too busy watching Valentina talk to the teacher at the door.

I try to hear what they were saying, but I can't even lip-read, I roll my eyes seeing the teacher laugh at something and Valentina do the same. I sigh thinking about when she arrived and why she didn't warn me, although it doesn't make any difference since she didn't respond to almost any of the messages I sent, she even seemed to be ignoring me. I wonder if it was because of that moment in the woods, which wouldn't make sense since after she reached me she tickled me until I asked for a break and then we were talking normally.

So what's changed?

And because she didn't come to class normally, after all, her suspension is over.

I take a deep breath when teacher Yakuto takes a paper and signs it and then gives it back to Valentina who leaves without even looking into the room and that makes me uncomfortable. I feel Sarah's eyes on me, but I don't say anything, I just stare at a random spot thinking about what just happened.

She didn't look for me at any time.

Her eyes didn't stray toward me for even a second.

I do not understand.

- She must have been in a hurry. - Sarah says, getting my attention.

- I wasn't thinking about that. - I say and she looks at me seriously.

- We both know very well that you are a terrible liar and that you can't hide how you feel from me, so spare me. - she says and I roll my eyes.

- I'm not hiding anything, she's my friend, she traveled and barely spoke to me, now she's back and didn't even warn me, I'm just worried about her. - I say and Sarah laughs.

- Okay, if you want to throw sand in your own eyes just so you don't see the obvious and your problem, only when someone steals your candy, don't come complaining. - Sarah says and I get confused.

Who would steal my candy?

What the hell.

Pov. Valentina

Shit.

Shit.

Shit.

Ignoring Isabelle isn't easy, but I can't risk her knowing I lied about my trip and even if she realizes I'm not well. I look inside the cafeteria seeing Anaya alone and she feels my princess, because she looks in my direction and then I enter the place.

- You look horrible, what happened? - she asks with a grimace helping me to sit up.

- An unforeseen event. - I answer and she shakes her head.

- You were poisoned. - she says and I nod lifting the sweater so she could see the affected area. - How did this happen ? - she-questions going to the door and putting the closed sign and then pulling the curtains to take the view of what happens inside the cafeteria for those outside.

- I don't know for sure, it was too fast. - I start taking a deep breath when she touches the arrow hole. - Shit, that hurts. - I complain and she pulls my ear.

- Who said to be distracted, now hold on, but lucky for you I'm the best in healing magic. - she says and I smile remembering my mother Emma. - Got something? - she asks and I nod.

- Just to be clear I tried to cure myself, but for some reason this poison is different, it's not a common poison. - I say and she seems to think of something.

- You have to tell me how it happened. - she says and I take my backpack and put it on the table.

- The arrow is here. - I say and she nods opening the backpack and she uses magic to analyze. - I got some clues about the day Isabelle's parents died. - I say and she looks at me seriously.

- You have to be careful Valentina, Nicholas and Emily died following these leads and I don't want the same to happen to you. - she says and smiles, shaking his head.

- I'm not like them Anaya, you know very well that if I die, dead I won't stay. - I scoff and she slaps me on the shoulder.

- No, but I'll have to patch you up like now. -she says and then starts reciting a spell. - Wenn diese nadeln anfangen zu wirken, wird alles böse in diesem Körper herauskommen. She says and I look around.

- What Anaya needles and how will the evil leave my body? - I question curiously, but I change curiosity when I feel scared when I feel something piercing my skin.

I grimace in pain and watch Anaya enjoy this. I can see needles moving by themselves, closing the hole in my belly.

- When I did that with Sasha she screamed a lot, but you just made a little face of nothing. - she says and I smile.

- Let's just say I've been through worse. - I say and she nods.

- Genevieve is really the worst. - she says and I look at her. - She was the one who made that scar on you, wasn't she? - she asks running his finger on the scar. - You still didn't have any of your supernatural sides activated and you were just a child. - complete and I sigh.

- Can you tell that just by touching my scar? - I question and she nods.

- It's one of the skills that only my clan can master, I taught almost everything I know to your mother, but there are things that even though she was powerful, she couldn't master it, since you are Izzy. - responds leaving a doubt in the air.

- Thank you for that. - I say and she looks at me confused. - For helping me, I think that's having friends, right? - I ask confused and she smiles.

- That's you having an aunt who will take care of you like a mother. - she says pinching my nose. - Now I'm going to get a bucket, you'll need it. - complete and I get confused.

When I go to ask I feel my stomach turn and then I can't stop the vomit coming out. I look at the floor seeing blood and a weird thing, it looked like a piece of an organ.

- Apparently it was too late. - I hear Anaya say and I feel the reflux coming even stronger. - Here. - she says putting the bucket in front of me and I vomit. - This magic I used on you closes vulnerable points, when the needles start to sew the affected organs are subtly pierced making your body react to the coating of herbs on the needle tips. In short, for this spell I need to use these special needles with these herbs that are only cultivated by our clan. - continues offering me a napkin. - And you are vomiting the blood affected by the poison in the arrow and that piece of meat there and a piece of your organ, it was the main point that was poisoning your other organs, when this happens the needles work as a medical instrument to remove pieces affected, but don't worry, you will be very tired, but when all the poison is out your healing ability will restore everything, including the removed part. - complete.

- Animator. - I scoff making her laugh.

- What did you find out? - dhe asks and I gasp feeling the package shrink.

- On the day of the accident they went to New Orleans to meet a strange guy with a stinky last name. - I answer trying to remember the name and she opens her mouth.

- Stinkyfeet. - she says and I nod.

- That's right, literally stinky. - I say and she smiles. - Well, I looked for him all over the city, but he had already left and that's when I found some guys and ended up getting hit in the middle of the fight. - complete and she is surprised.

- Were they human? - she asks and I deny it.

- No, they seemed to be, but they had interesting skills. - I answer and she looks thoughtful.

- They can be floda reltih. - her says and I shrug.

- Maybe, but they didn't seem to me to be from the scum of our world. I say and she nods.

They had familiar moves.

I've seen it somewhere.

- Next time you go to investigate I want you to take your guardian with you. - She says and I look at her in surprise. - her really didn't think I wouldn't notice him hanging around the Lavely house at dawn. - she asks making me smile.

- She needs protection, they tried to poison her Anaya and this time I'm sure it was the floda reltih. They know about her and Nick, it won't be long before they come after them with a huge group of them. I say and she nods. - Speaking of which, I need you to deliver this arrow to Miguel and ask him to analyze it. - complete taking the arrow hidden in the magic pocket of my backpack.

- What arrow is this? - she asks looking at the broken object.

- And the arrow that hit Isabelle's hand, she didn't notice it was an attack, which is good, but what if it had hit your heart? - I ask annoyed. - I would have failed in my purpose and would not forgive myself for it. - I say and she looks curious.

- What is your purpose? - question.

- I came here just to investigate the Lavely Ballard deaths, but I ended up meeting Isabelle, then I met Nick, Jensen, Henry and Sasha. - I answer thoughtfully. - This is weird for me, I never had what I think I have now and I'm enjoying it, I finally know what it's like to have friends, I know what it's like to share, to care about someone and it all started because of her. - I keep looking at Anaya. - I came here to fulfill Genevieve's purposes and desires, but I think for the first time I have my own purpose, I have my own desires and one of them is that when that girl finds out about this world I can explain what killed her parents and can give her a chance to see their real bodies. Most of all I want her to be strong, I want everyone to be really, because I want to spend more time with them. - Complete and she smiles and hugs me leaving me embarrassed.

- What Genevieve did to you my dear. she-she says leaving me a little confused and then pulls away and looks me in the eyes. - Promise me something ? - she asks and I nod. - When the time comes, don't put yourself below her, don't do like Emma, ​​don't dedicate your life to wills that aren't hers. You have a pure heart, so when the time comes, choose what is right for you, what is best for your life, no matter the consequences. - complete.

- Why do you say that ? - I ask and she smiles.

- You'll know soon dear. - she answers offering me help to get up. - Come on, I'll take you home, as Izzy is still in class you'll have a few hours to rest before she breaks down the door to your house. - her jokes making me laugh.

I accept her help and she drives me to her car and as she drives to my house I wonder why she always quotes Genevieve that way, what she did to her and I still have to deal with Fergus afterwards. That wretch threw the arrow away, he didn't do what I asked, just making my suspicions more certain. As soon as she stops the car, she gets out and takes me upstairs laying me on the bed.

- Rest, I will tell Sasha about almost everything, she will spend time with you taking care of her recovery. - she says walking towards the door. - Don't even think about denying it, she is as skilled as her mother and will be here as soon as she finds out, she probably won't even let me finish talking, so explain whatever is necessary. - completes and then closes the door.

Anaya.

You created internal conflicts in me, just like Isabelle and the others.

Thanks to you I'm asking questions and that will be a problem when Genevieve arrives.
