Snippet #2520818

Aurora seemed to ignore those around her as her mind struggled to resurface into sanity. When the boy came over and touched her, she would flinch and they boy would feel a shock of static run through his hand yet it would not prove enough to hurt him in anyway. Aurora's panic continued though her verbal outrage had subsided, instead she resided to shivering and sobbing, the shaking of her body generating the electrical powers within her, which made her glow and crackle with static.

Aurora did not re-act at all to any of the words the others seemed to be speaking, she was lost within her own mind and had no way of getting out until the leader-type girl from before, Katelyn came over and slipped a charm over Aurora's neck. Strangly, something suddenly cleared the smog of Aurora's mind enough for her to regan a conciousness of reality and so she looked up from the hiding place she had burrowed her head into amongst her cloak and peered around the room, blinking away the tears. She saw a few people staring in her direction and blanched slightly. Quickly, she muttered "Thank you" to Kat, then dropped to the floor to gather up the papers from the file she had dropped, trying to make herself seem atleast the tiniest bit normal.

"There's no going back" the words caught Aurora's attention and she gulped, peering up to the others from her knelt and slightly bent over position on the floor as she hurried the papers into her file, then she glanceed over to the boy who pressed the button. Her eyes widened, No going back?! she repeated in her head, We're trapped?! Not good not good, I need to get home, I can't stay out here after..after that! then Aurora finally realised the charm around her neck which had been placed there earlier and lifted one of her hands to gently bring it up into her vision, But then.. this thing calmed me down..maybe I'll be ok here.. Aurora narrowed her eyes at the charm, what did it do to me? she was confused as to how anything such as a somewhat small looking crystal could calm her from such a pit of doom she never knew how to cure, and in the past had just let wash over her in the safety of her own home. But now she couldn't get home, and she was trapped in this room with the others, so maybe this crystal would help.

Suddenly alarmed by remembering her outburst, Aurora grabbed her file and stood quickly, looking around to the group, glancing at whom-ever was looking her way, with a meek voice she would speak, "S-sorry.. the files.. they freaked me out.." she said in hopes these words would explain herself well enough.
