Guardians: Out of Darkness » Places

         Getting one of the teens to agree with her was a start, even if it wasn’t the person she believed to be the leader. It was definitely a start. Enya smiled lightly as she turned fully to face into the room. “I’m Enya.” She replied lightly right after the white haired male gave his name, Leon. She gulped under his gaze as he looked her up and down. She feared him seeing what she was doing as she did anyone who looked at her for too long. But once he stopped she breathed a small sigh of relief hoping it wasn’t noticeable. As soon as Leon went looking for the switch, possibly due to her comment, she took the chance to look around again.

The angel statue was highly impressive in the fact that as old as it appeared it could still move on its own or that the mechanical abilities to create it were present at such an ancient time. Then there was Leon bent down searching for a switch and the first male she’d seen, and the girl who wouldn’t stop staring at her. A fact that made her stomach twist into knots. As the girl started talking, her brows furrowed in confusion. I know what they’re talking about, the demons? She gulped under the hard gaze. What is she? How can she know these things about me? She thought to herself until the other girl brought up having a water or ice element.

“What do you mean… water or ice element?” She questioned as she looked at Eyes and then the two males in the room, using it as an excuse not to look at the other girl’s hard gaze as she looked her up and down. Then a single phrase caught her attention. She should stay. She felt her heart speed up and her stomach twist around. She could stay. No more having to be alone. “I… I can stay? Really?” She tried not to let the hope show through in her voice. She didn’t want to seem like her life depended on staying. It didn’t.

Then the other girl, Eyes, started speaking about freezing time and magic. Now she really was confused. Understanding the fact of demons was one thing. Things she’d seen since fifth grade could be called demons; sure, she wasn’t completely sure. But freezing time and magic? She shook her head, opened her mouth to speak and then stopped herself just short of any sound coming out. I have arcane magic? That’s what she calls what I can do? How does she know that? Enya’s demeanor changed. She stood rigid, her muscles close to shaking. If she knows what I can do, does she know the truth? She glared at Eyes as if it would help her figure out how much the girl knew or even how she knew it, or possibly even to keep her from knowing her secret that the arcane abilities that she had protected.

Taking a moment to calm herself down, to unknot the clumps of muscles in her body, she watched as the other girl played around with the wall and watched the angel statue move. Watching the spear being reflected off an invisible shield Enya completely froze more so than she had before. She can… she has a shield… The girl’s green and gray eyes were wide. “How did you do that?” It was the first time her voice was completely strong no sign of her scared to be around others self. Forget believing anything about the demons, freezing time, magic, water/ice elements, or arcane abilities. I thought I was the only one who could do that… But how did she block a physical attack? Even I can’t do that… She gulped again, blatantly staring at Eyes in shock through the darkened lens of her glasses.
