Finding myself in the unexpected

Mother Nature

Walking into the forest across from my house I made sure I was about 30 minutes deep in the forest before I let myself run full speed until I hit the river. I stopped and stood still just watching the beauty of the water flowing, before saying “flumen pulchritudo, et oratio fluens natura, venite ad me; si tener volu” meaning, “River beauty, flowing nature, come to me in a delicate swirl” with a soft circle motion of my hand a small stream of river water started lifting up on its way to me, swirling in a beautiful pattern the water floated above my palm. I watch the water loving the way it moves, it’s beauty so captivating. After a while I moved on to the forest trees, I sat on a rock, trailing my hands over the moss, the bark of trees, smelling the blooming flowers. I dug my fingers into the moss before whispering, “natura amabilia mater, et mater est terra, a puero, mecum coniungere tua silvam”, “Lovely mother nature, mother of earth, connect with me a child of your forest” then the moss extended into vines moving it’s way up my arms and onto my face following the vine birthmark on my face. Feeling the connection with mother nature again gave me a buzz, the feeling of home and belonging flowed through me. Deciding that I should also use my witch side I stood up letting the moss fall away from me, I held my arms beside me and closed my eyes, thinking about my witch powers I opened the door that I had used to shut them off when around humans. I could feel my eyes starting to glow, my veins turned green, “Cruel, Kind and Wicked” I chanted, “Cruel, Kind and Wicked” focusing on what I wanted to happen I begun to float in the air with my blue/green flame’s wrapping around my body, feeling the warm trickle of my power curling around me made me smile it had been so long. Suddenly I heard a twig snap, dropping to the ground I shoved my magic back away before grabbing the closet tree to me and scaling it. Once I was high enough in the tree not to be spotted, I waited to see who or what was around. I didn’t have to wait long, there was a group of people walking in black cloaks. I concentrated hard on hearing what they were talking about and sure enough it was me, I knew this day would come sooner or later but I was hoping I would have more time. They are after me because they think I’ll be more vulnerable when I am around the humans, they are witches that are under my fathers ranks but they don’t care what he has to say when it comes to a threat like me. They think he is clouded by the fact that I’m his daughter but what they don’t know is that if they don’t give me a reason to attack then there is no threat in me but when they come for me like this and threaten the lives of humans as well it really doesn’t sit well with me. I’ve come to have a connection with the humans even if they don’t know who I am or that I don’t even know who I am anymore they have done nothing to deserve an attack. They need to be protected and maybe that was my job all along and I just didn’t know it until now. Waiting until they were right under me I leapt, unleashing my Fae and witch I could once again feel the my veins going green, my eyes glowing, my Fae senses heightening and connecting to the nature around me. I landed on a witch digging my long Fae nails into their throat only deep enough to puncture and hurt but not kill. Unleashing my Fae witch flame I surrounded every single witch so they couldn’t move towards me or way from me. “I know you’re my fathers witches, I know you’re here for me but you’re kidding yourselves if you thought I’d let you expose us, if you thought you could hurt me. You don’t know me or my power. Think of this as a message the next person from any clan or breed to come at me I will kill” getting my point across I pulled my claws out of the witches neck only to have my vines wrap around the witches neck to strange him without even using my hands. Just before the witch was about to pass out I uttered a spell and sent teleported them to the middle of a dessert far, far away from me and any humans. Unleashing more of my Fae and Witch merging them together to be one I didn’t even need to utter a spell or words to nature I simply held my fingers to my skull, I could feel my mark glowing, pulsing with all the power radiating through me. Hold my skull I channelled my parents, “Mother, Father. Learn to control your people. I just had four witches come after me in the Daintree forest near the human race. I sent them to the dessert after sending a message not to mess with me because the next one will mark my words end up dead no matter who’s clan or breed they are from. Do you understand me?” I know I wasn’t speaking very nicely but after knowing what they were here to do I had lost it and the power coursing through me right now was fulling my authority. “Yes dear we’re happy you are safe, we will deal with it. Let us know if anything else happens, stay alert” at that I cut the connection and dug my fingers into the earth to calm myself down, to feel mother nature flowing through me with her soothing melody. After a few minutes my magic was locked away again and I was ready to head home.

The next few days I was on guard about anything and everything, I didn’t go to the Friday party and I stayed low key at home all week and weekend not risking drawing attention to myself.

Monday come’s around and I get up for school grabbing some toast to eat I chuck on my tight light blue ripped jeans, an emerald green crop jumper, paired with my black and white old skool vans. Walking to school in peace looking at all the nature surrounding me. Pushing through the school doors I notice everyone is in a frantic whisper in their groups, confused on what the buzz is about I look for Olivia and Sabrina. Finding them at Seb’s locker I ask, “What’s everyone so crazed about today?” they turn to me with wide almost excited looking eyes they say, “Well there’s these new guys that started today, apparently they transferred from England! I think they are related or something but they are hot, hot, hot” they continued to rant on about how crazy attractive these guys are and how they throw off intense bad boy vibes. It only mildly peeked my interest, I wasn’t all that bothered about any more new people hot or not. As the day went on I was still yet to see these new guys, I didn’t even see Grey which I thought could have been a blessing because I really didn’t need or want any distractions. When lunch time came I around I sat at our usual table and gossiped with my friends, suddenly the air around me changed, a cool shiver ran up my spine and the oxygen felt like it had completely left the room. Looking around I saw them for the first time, four new hot, daring bad boys. The first one had short light blonde hair, sharp features, lean but toned, fair skin with deep green piercing eyes, the second boy had the same build, the same hair colour but his eyes were a pale green making me think they were twins, they both looked to be 6ft. The third boy was at least 6ft 1 with black short hair, a defined jaw line, square chin, slightly arched brows, dark blue eyes, built but lean shoulders. What caught my attention about him was the blue tattoo peeking out from his long sleeve shirt, interesting. The fourth and final guy had dark orange hair that was slightly longer, with green / hazel eyes, thinner smirking lips, tan skin, his ears pierced, with a built and also lean body with tattoos running down both arms and what looked like green nail polish on.
