Chapter 2: Stranger

We are having a dinner and noticed my papa with his strange routine, he always go to work and got home so early but I started to worried about him, he has the strange eyes as I am. Also he didn't know that I prepared a simple gift for him.

"Papa I have a gift" I said and stopped eating he smiled

"What is it Sweetie?" he asked and he stopped eating.

"This" I gave him the box and he curiously looked at me and trying to communicate with my eyes but that doesn't work to me anymore.

"Can I open it now?" he asked and I nodded..his eyes sparkled so brightly and it was a smart watch..I saved a lot of money to bought the smart watch.

"Thank you very much sweetie you are the first person who gave me this kind of gift" he smiled and gave me warm hug.

I know papa doesn't need a smart watch but I insist myself buying it for him to check his health and balance his diet meal. We continued eating and talked about my academic performance, my grades are all good even sports.

I never open the topic about my classmates because I'm not really close to them I am their ranked one honor student followed by my best friend our neighbor's daughter, they didn't like me for being a honor student. I trust my best friend, but I never share my secrets to her

Papa reminded me that I should be careful for trusting people around me, because if you easily trust the person the higher the chance that he/she might betray or disappoint you.

He thought that I have a lots of friends but they are not my friends they are the people who used to bully me because of the color of my eyes.

We just ate dinner silently and Papa is so happy for the gift that I gave to him it's not yet his birthday but I wanted to give him a gift.

The next day I went to school and I noticed a message in our mailbox so I open it without telling to Papa it's a color black envelope and a red stamp on the top of the envelope, I got and opened it while going to school and read it.

it says:

Dear Louis,

How are you? I've got an update still Veronica and Vernon hasn't found yet some of the Mistress and Master of the other Clan gone missing..It looks like the Violet Clan has taken the Lead of the Most Powerful Clan.

Your Friend,

Mathilda

After I read the letter i put it on my backpack and went to our classroom..It bothers me so much having a suspicious letter in our mailbox and a stranger who follows me ongoing home. When our class was ended I went home right away while walking on the street a stranger followed me and I turned my direction to left so that he can't follow me anymore but still he didn't stopped following me , I climbed on the top of the tree and saw him still following me and I went down when I heard him talking behind me and followed me. I stopped and look at the back and it's a man wearing black suit and hat again , I leveled him to take a glance at his face but I only see his green eyes and talk to him.

"Why are you following me?" I said and narrowed my eyes to him , he show up his face and remove his hat

"Hi my name is Gavin from the Green Clan, I've heard you are Vina right? " my eyes widened and step back and about to run but he blocked my way.

"Before you can escape show me what you got he started attacking me using his power and it was an lightning ball, I avoided his attack and created a fire ball to throw at him but he dodge my attack, he's fast dodging all my attack.

He throw some Lightning ball which I haven't prepared my defense on it, all I do is ran and throw some fire ball and use air to avoid his lightning power. His green eyes started to glow and I can't move.

He step forward and look at me and his eyes turned into normal green eye.

"You are still weak, you need some practice to control your power and you haven't unlock the power of your eye." I pick up my things and treat my wounds luckily I brought my emergency kit, it hurts a lot putting some alcohol on it and a bandage, helped me putting back all of my things and he introduced himself to me .

"My name is Gavin from the Green Clan and I know your Papa" He smiled and offered a hand to me , I grabbed his hand and turned around to him.

"Oh I'm sorry but why did you attacked me all sudden if you can introduced yourself properly!" I yelled but he only laughed

"I attacked you to see if you improve and it seems that you need more training to contr your power" he answered and put his hands on his pocket and walk.

"I need to talk to your Papa" he said and continue to walk and I didn't ask anymore and walk on my way home he followed me and I let him be.

"Dingdong" I rang our doorbell and Papa opened the door and Papa opened the door

"Welcome home Sweetie and Gavin'' he bow politely to Gavin and let him entered in our house, he went to our living room and watched TV. I changed my clothes and helped my papa preparing our meal.

"Papa do you know him?" I asked while chopping onions

"Yes, I know him very well, but what happened to your hands and your knees?" he asked and looked at my hands and knees

"He attacked me with his power and he said that I need a lot of training and practice to control my power" I said honestly with my papa he tried to smile but I know he is mad..he nodded and cooked our food and let me seat on the table to rest.

"Gavin the dinner is ready come and eat with us" he called Gavin to gather and eat.

"Yes , I will" He turned off the TV and went to the kitchen to wash his hands and seat on his chair to eat.

Papa is staring at him with a furrow eyebrows

"Why did you attack my daughter" he asked to Gavin and Gavin looked at me and I just continued eating and looked away.

" I didn't mean to attack your Daughter I just tested her abilities if she can protect herself".He answered and Papa nod and continue to eat.

"Papa I'm going to my room now Thank you for cooking our dinner papa" I said and went to my room I opened my window and I saw them talking.. silently listening to their conversation,but I didn't hear anything I don't

know what happened I only saw them talking to each other and I can't hear any voices

around them.

I went to the bathroom and do my routines and goes to my bed to sleep.

Where am I who is this two people and Papa why is he running the two people back there why did they give me to papa and why is that woman was crying and who is that violet eye lady she is trying to attack me "no! no!

NO!" I woke up and my papa was seating beside my bed and trying to calm me down

"Sweetie are you okay?" he gave me a glass of water and I drink it all of it.

I'm trying to process everything who are they why do I keep dreaming about them, They are always crying in my dream and begging for help and I don't know what to do.

Why am I crying and sweating in frustration?

My hands starting to get cold and I am shaking from fear of being killed by the Lady who has violet eyes.

"Vina I think you need help" Gavin said and asked me.

"You are having a nightmare..mind if you share what did you see in your dreams?"

He asked and Papa seriously observing me.

"I saw two people a man and woman who called my name crying and a violet cruel woman who is about to attack me, and Papa was there to save me but the two people was left fighting for their life and protecting the castle and me." I described and based it from what I saw in my dream.

Both of them looked each other and looked at me

Papa sighed and his eyes looked so worried about me and I can see in his eyes that he wanted to tell me something but he refused.

" You need to practice at the other place both of us will go to Gavin's place tomorrow and we will have training to control your power to defense yourself from the enemies and I will tell you everything what you saw in your dreams so prepare your things and we're going to leave here" Papa said and Gavin nodded.

We drove far away from the city and arrived to the mysterious place it was Gavin's place a gloomy place surrounded by a trees and a fog we walked until we reached the Castle, I saw an old man standing in the entrance of the castle, he looked at me and he has the same eyes as Gavin. My mouth formed an' O ' with an amazing sight of castle,ll I didn't realize that Gavin lives in a Castle. The Old Man smiled and welcomed all of us into the castle. I wandered in the castle and look for interesting things but it has a lot of difference into our house, the castle is too big and it has a large space with lots of furniture and books, pictures and also weapons and they have chandelier compared to our home we only use the ordinary light bulb, I saw some other people not just Gavin maybe his cousins or brother training using their power made me amazed to them.

"What are you doing here?" a little girl asked me and she has the same eyes as Gavin she stepped back , as she saw my eyes were glowing red.
