Chapter 1: Background information
We've always been proud of what we can do. To do what normal people can't. This is what we were meant to be. I'm Hadandra, and I'm just a normal girl in a world full of powerful friends and enemies. Our world is ruled by a court of powerful rulers. These guys have supernatural abilities like controlling water, plants, fire, metal, ect. They live in these fancy houses up in northern Abagade, the name of our country. Us normies, aka 'the boring humans that can't do anything' mostly just live under them and or serve them. I, myself am I am a servant of the Siren House.They have the power to basically talk or sing and hypnotize people to do whatever they want. I mainly serve their sons DJ and Skipper, two twin boys who are really nice most of the time. DJ is the more social of the two, always out playing sports with his friends while Skipper does enjoy those things also, he's more reserved than his brother. I've come to know some of DJ's friends since he often invites me to hang out with them. His friend Kayanna has the ability to heal people, Karl can control metals and machines, Dalton has the ability to manipulate plant life, Alexis has whats known as telekenisis, and Brandon can control animals. They're all nice to me and Celdris, my best friend.
He's also a normy servant but he serves House Telampth, Alexis' house. Of course, I did forget to mention our King Kanarac, his power is probably the deadliest, the ability to turn make someones power stop working. He's very strict and demands a lot of things from his court, or so that's what DJ and his friends talk about. I was washing the windows with another servant girl who's name I can't really remember when I heard the doors open. "My lord," The butler at the door said, sweeping into a low bow as it opened. Brandon stepped in, two large pet snakes wrapped themselves around his body. One around his neck like a scarf, the other around his left arm. By the size of the coiled creatures, I'd say they were both pythons. The sight of them made me shiver as he strided over to me.
"Where's DJ?" "This way, my lord," I said taking his right hand, trying to avoid eye contact with the snake around his neck. I took him into one of the many foyer-esqe rooms and motioned to DJ who was watching something on his tv. As soon as he saw Brandon, he got up and smiles.
I suddenly heard a voice inside my head, a girl giggling creepily which made me shiver. "Dear god-" I said jumping back as Alexis stood there, giggling as the voice in my head stopped. I'd forgotten she can get into peoples heads. "You playing mind games with my servants again?" DJ teased, seemingly unfased as Alexis walked past me dressed in delicate light blues and black to represent the colors of her house. She was dressed in black pants, a partially see-through blue tang top to show a white sports bra, had her black hair in a silver ponytail, and had a dagger attached to a belt at her side. "Maybe," She said hissing similar to Brandons snakes. All three were dressed in their house colors, DJ having dark blue and dark green and Brandon with lime green and bright yellow. The sound of a cracking whip cut through the air like a knife through butter as silence fell upon us.
