Am I a monster? » Places

         Hearing the crackling of fallen leaves and branches behind her, Ariana stopped for a moment, she glanced about her, but all she could see was darkness. Someone, or something, was there. Jinx sniffed the air, smelling blood. He hissed in the direction of a boy, as he could see him even in the dark. But did not bother to tell Aria that a boy was there through telepathy. She had already heard him hiss and withdrew a stick-like object from her right boot. It was her wand, though it wasn't as fancy as other witches or wizards, but her's was a special momentum. Quickly turning around, she saw nothing behind her, as it was to dark to see anything anyways. Maybe whatever it was left.

With a nervous sigh, Aria was about to placed her wand back into her right boot, when suddenly she remembered something. "Oh my! I can't believe I forgot such a simple spell!" She mentally smacked herself, as she flicked her wand. A faint white light illuminated from the tip of her wand, lighting a 2 foot radius around her. The Light was bright enough to see what was in front of her, but it was dim enough so it wouldn't call attention to her. Or at least she hoped it wouldn't.

"Ariana, you need to be more aware of your surroundings, especially when out at night in the forest!" Jinx snarled, trotting next to the girl. "And you should know by now what spells to use and when!" He always liked to complain about the little things Ariana did wrong. Glaring at the black cat, Aria rolled her eyes. "Maybe next time I'll have Kane come with me. He's more relaxed than you." She teased a bit, before letting out a light chuckle. Jinx hissed again, this time it was at her. He and Kane never really saw eye to eye. "Aw don't be a baby~ I'm only kidding...Maybe!" She quietly laughed, watching Jinx go ahead of her. "Somebody's jealous." The girl whispered to herself, as a small smile formed on her lips.
