The Walk of the Gifted

Aya Drafone- the Muderer

What am I going to do? I was frantic, I thought that maybe, just ,maybe in this school that I might be safe from the people that want me dead, but apparently not. I thought people would understand, that I wasn't the only one. But I was wrong. I thought that maybe I could make friends, and maybe some enemies, but only the harmless kind. Again wrong. Everything since coming to this school was wrong. Why did it have to be me?

"Is this what people nowadays a mid-life crisis? I mean I know that you aren't mid-life, but people today call everything a mid-life crisis." A figure appeared in front of me, and I felt my heartbeat race. I was going to die, and because of the people that hate me. I felt my eyes widen at this woman, and I felt the school, or at least the girls apartments shake.

"Oh dear girly do not go and try to take the building down, I will still be standing because I died a long time ago." I stared at her, my mouth agape. It's true that this woman had a certain old aura about her, a certain regalia. The building stopped shaking as I shakily got up. I didn't need anymore scares as the old-timer walked over and offered her hand. I thought that I wasn't going to be able to touch her, but when I took her hand, I found that it was solid, solid and cold.

"I also heard that people in this time shake hands instead of bowing. And that ghosts were not real. That is a simple myth. I mean I am standing right here, solid and feeling. Although I was also told that ghosts are not supposed to be solid. Maybe I am not a ghost!" This chick wouldn't shut up. She was like a never ending chatterbox.

"I'm Aya, nice to meet you. . .whoever you are. Now would you please get out of my room. I have things to do." I tried to say it as nicely as I could, clenching my teeth. She was getting on my nerves. I was going to light her on fire or something since she was solid, as she so brightly pointed out. She wasn't fazed by what I said, and I wondered if she even heard me over her insistent talking.

"Now to the point why I am here. Obviously I did not come here to rattle off your ears, but I thought that you might be the only one to see me other then Master Azazel, and it is true! Aya Drafone, the supposed next leader of the Zodiacs if she can get her powers under control. The one who's strength of power and mind rivals, no is at par with the strongest of the Zodiacs. If anything you could be stronger then the strongest, but the strongest, and the strongest one is the leader, is what you would call just a leader. He is the thirteenth Zodiac. You know that why there would only be twelve Zodiac is because there is only twelve Zodiac signs and symbols. Ophiuchus, the serpent-bearer. Although he despises the reptiles you know? He is not the only one, unless they are made for food, then they are good. So, it seems that Master would like to see you. now come with me outside." She glided out, her long dark curls blowing in some unfeeling wind. I only hesitated a second. She said that my power matched the strongest Zodiac, the rumored thirteenth Zodiac nonetheless. And she said that I was to be the next Zodiac leader, and I didn't think that they had something like that.

"And for introductions I am Lilith, no I am not a demon. Although I am pertained as the strongest ghost. Again I do not believe that I am a ghost, I am solid for heavens sake, but that is what they say. I am sorry we did not do introductions sooner, just sometimes I just get talking you know?" She seemed to have an accent from somewhere, but Aya couldn't place it. We were outside, the strong gusts of air whipping my hair around. It was hard to try to smooth my hair down just to have it messed up again by this unexpected wind. It wasn't like this before though. It was calm before. I think that something might be wrong when someone stepped out from the shadows. A spike of fear seared in my heart, and I started to sweat. They were wearing a long black trench coat with a black hat to top it off. Come on, what are we in, a bad 2060's movie? I saw that she was holding a sword in her hand.
"Hey, Lilith, I wonder, is she with you?" I asked, fear spiking my voice.
