It was only twenty minutes away from midnight and I still couldn't sleep, whenever I closed my eyes the dreams came and every time I felt suffocated and on the verge of dying. 'I'm gonna go for a walk and maybe get some fresh air' i thought getting off the king sized bed I was sleeping in that had black and purple sheets, violet pillows and the room was so huge.
I walked out the room closing the door behind me then I started walking on my tip toes making sure that I don't wake up anyone else. I walked through the long hallway and down the stairs to the welcoming area where I met Eri, I went to the door and tried turning the keys but it was not working. I put my hand on the nob and then pull the door inwards and to my surprise it opened.
'is a thief trying to break in... who cares there people with powers who can take care of themselves' i said walking out my back against the garden as I closed the door, then I heard a voice.
"trying to run away Pheodora?" a guy asked,I turned around and looked at him.
"no,not really but since you mentioned it I'm starting to consider the option" I said and he looked amused.
"what are you doing out this late,it's..." he stopped as he looked at his watch "seventeen minutes away from midnight" he added looking concerned.
"couldn't sleep, and you,what can a guy who has almost everything he ever wanted be doing out this late?" I asked him and he just looked at me.
"walk with me" he said bringing his right hand forward and I took it,we went deep into the garden that had a lot of beautiful plants and trees surrounding the entrance of the house giving off a fairly tale vibe.
"I had never really fit in with the other kids at the orphanage, because I was different and I am different. whenever I got hurt or injured my wounds would heal in no time.." he paused and trailed off for a few minutes,I could tell that this was nothing he ever wanted to talk about so I gave him all the time he needed.
Taking in a deep breath he continued " even the most serious injuries would heal in no time and that made people want that same ability to heal their wounds and injuries"he paused again this time looking at me questioningly wondering of he should continue or stop.
I put an arm on his shoulder ,gave him a reassuring smile and nodded at him gesturing for him to continue.
"I was only eight years old ,when I was put into a car taking me to an airport. I was about to be taken out of this country and to a military base or station with mad scientists so that I act as a lab rat,as they get to discover what makes me heal fast. but on the way the car met with an accident. The car was upside down and I had obtained a lot of cuts both minor and major, I crawled out the window,and I found this little girl standing there her eyes violet,she walked closer and closer and closer to me cautiously
'don't be afraid I am only here to help you' she said my cuts were not healing but she moved her hand over me,the cuts healed instantly I don't know how to explain but being around her felt right ,I felt safe ,wanted and I felt....at home 'don't focus on your healing power from now on,whenever you get hurt take deep breaths and calm your mind,now close your eyes'she added I did as she said and all went black the next moment I opened them I was in front of a house.
the girl saved me and that girl is here with me" he explained his stories
"are you saying I'm that girl,but I don't even have my full power?" I asked incredulously
"well,what I felt when I was eight and what I felt when I caught you were the same feelings" he said "you may not know it yet but I guarantee you that you are one of us" he added
"well can I tell you something?" I asked and he smiled at me
"yea" he said
"are you telling me the truth ..." I stuttered
