Chapter 3- Far from home

Sounds spiderman themed, right? But it's not. Enjoy!!

As i sat by the pool side, i saw someone's reflecting on the surface of the pool behind me

Steve

I saw Steve's reflection standing behind me. His power is ice, not invisibility. Creepy much?

"What do you want, Steve?" I finally said already getting creped out and more annoyed by the second just by looking at his reflection. "Hey, Vicky" He said as he sat beside me and i didn't waste time showing how i felt. I shifted away from him without hiding my annoyance. I was so sad and didn't know why. Maybe because i have a map that might have secret libraries of each worlds but isn't allowed to just because of a birthday party. Do you know how stupid and dumb that sounds?

"I asked a question. What do you want?" I said still looking at the water. "Don't even think about it" I quickly said to him when i noticed he was about to move closer to me "Sorry, Vicky"

Sorry. Sorry?

Immediately he said that, i darted my head to the side as if i just got slapped and glared at him and that's when i couldn't stand him any longer

So, it's now you say sorry. I said in my head...well, i also said it out loud

"Oh! Now you say sorry. You could have told Mimi not to bother imprisoning me but noo..." I elongated the 'no' "...you just stood like a piece of shit while she did and you say sorry for what you could've stopped. Yes, you are suppose to apologize but it's very idiotic. Do yourself a favour and leave me alone, it is more of a warning than a suggestion" but of course the blockhead didn't heed to it and that's when i lost my cool. I placed my hand on his chest and pushed him away from me and he landed a couple feets away from me on his butt. I never knew i had such strength in me

I don't know if it was the push or something else but Steve didn't look so good anymore. As i was about to approach him, Mimi sprung out of nowhere

"What did you do to him?"

"Nothing"

"You did something to him, what was it?" I knew that look anywhere, that was the look of things not ending well

"Nothing. I just pushed him"

"You pushed him? He isn't well and you pushed him. Why do you think I asked you to help with the decorations but it's not as if you allowed me to explain"

I kinda felt bad "I'm sorry Mimi, Steve. I didn't know"

"Of course, you didn't. You just kept to yourself since you were upset with me. Should have just let you be"

At that moment, my sister ran out to Mimi's side and then she looked at me with a side i haven't seen her with

"Vicky, what did you do?" My sister asked angrily "I didn't do anything. How many times will i say it. I didn't do anything to him" I said for the hundredth time in frustration but no one was ready to believe me

Back to the beginning of the story

I. Don't. Care

I looked at Mimi and said, with confidence and anger "Exactly, you should have just let me be. None of this would have happened if you had just let me be, so don't act like the victim, as if all this isn't your fault. This whole thing is your fault. You are the worst, tell my parents about what I've been up to for all i care because honestly, i don't care. You know what, I'm outta here"

I didn't care about the fact that a lot of people saw what just happened. I didn't care what they thought of me. I didn't care what Mimi's reply was. I was out of this damn world and it's about time

I wasn't even kidding right now. I'm so sick and tired of this world and everyone treating me different. Most of them called me an extractor, obviously i wasn't. I've touched almost everyone in my world and i also don't have red eyes like them. I know what you're thinking but they aren't demons. Just peeps with red eyes who are empty vessels and suckers of energy. Yeah, sounded demonic when i was little but now, pfft!

When i got home, instead of entering through the door, i climbed up to my window with the help of the tree next to my room. I know, i know, i could have passed through the door but when you are running away from home, you do not want to see anyone and you don't want anyone to see you, and again, it's not my first time sneaking in and out of my room

I was about to climb in, when i saw my parents backing me. They were facing the door obviously waiting for me. Of course, Mimi told them what i was up to. They aren't kidding when they say 'choose your friends wisely', huh?

My mum being a live detector that she is, turned back and looked at me, eye-to-eye style. I entered the room completely without showing any reaction, walked towards my wardrobe and took out a big back bag

I know you might think I'm crazy doing that right now in front of my old timers but honestly speaking, i couldn't care less. I took out some clothes and placed them on my bed with the bag

"Where do you think you are going, young lady?" My mum said in a stern voice as she folded her hands on her chest and my dad just standing there, glaring at me

"I'm sure Mimi or Delight told you what happened, so why still ask" kinda rude. I know

"Young lady..." She was about to say something but i cut her off knowing exactly what she wanted to say "What? I'm 16. I know. You'll say, I'm not of age that I'm still under your guidance but listen up, you and dad were never there. It was mostly me and princess delight..."

Don't get me wrong i actually still care and love my sister a lot even though she is annoying, weird, strange and a pain in the butt, but i still care

"...you guys were never there. You guys always go out to 'only the most powerful being knows where' without telling us a thing but at least you guys know where I'm actually going to"

"And where's that" my dad spoke up

"Outside this world that's for sure"

"Do you know what lies beyond our world?"

"Do you? Either ways, I'm going whether you like it or not"

"You can't leave without this" i spun around to see my mum wiggling my map "Mum give that back" as i was about to reach out for it, my dad swiftly took it out of my mum's grip. That is never fair "You will not leave this world because you don't know what is outside this world"

"I know. There are other creatures apart from us. They might not be friendly but I'll still get over it and find my way. What are you guys keeping away from me?" I turned away from my parents and sat down on my bed. My parents saw how bummed i was and they decided to leave me alone

Immediately, they closed the door behind them, i went to pack my other necessities

You didn't think i only had a copy of the map, right?

When i was done packing, i opened my door to make sure nobody was close and then, i locked the door and went to the window. I looked around again and started to climb down

Immediately, i reached the ground, i ran. Not because i was scared but i knew my mum would detect my absence at any moment so i ran not knowing where yet but far from home, far from my kind and far from this world

Thank you all for reading this chapter. Please support me by voting and commenting, it will actually mean a lot to me. I feel so bad for Vicky right now but a girl gotta do what a girl gotta do :) Do you think Vicky will survive on her own outside her world. Maybe she will actually get our powers this time. Stay tuned for another chapter. See ya later. Love ya
