It's you: an old friend
Sira's pov
I slowly stood, adjusting to the balance difference and going to walk. I head downstairs and i make some toast. My eyes blaze as i pull out ataxia and rest his blade on the table. I grab a pair of blades they call," scissors" and i start to cut my hair to my middle neck length. My flaming red hair seemed out of place as i looked in the mirror. I was so used to having brown hair and gold eyes until this power came into my life. I wasn't going to complain since soon i could start learning to fly. I wipe up the hair and sweep it into the garbage. I decided to go to the city today. As soon as i came out of our small home i could hear so many whispers about a figure had been robbing shops all around town, but before the police could do anything he always seemed to vanish. I had gone to every one of those shops and i could i feel an ancient shimmer. I walked to the new shop and stepped inside, instantly feeling the prescence wash over me. Missed him again it seems, might as well head home. My lengthened ears twitched under the hood i wore as the faint sound of footsteps reached them. I quickly turned my head, but nothing was there. A much different feeling washed over me and i scanned with my eyes aglow, spotting a hooded figure in darkness across the way. I cried out and and i called the police but i knew that by the time they got here he would be gone. I burst into a run after the black figure as they rushed into an alley. I called on my draconic strength to speed my run as we weaved through the streets in a high speed chase. Suddenly he slipped into the woods outside the city. I smirked since i knew every corner of these woods, the forest coming alive under my bare feet. He kept running into the darkest corner of the woods, making me force it from my mind as i continue, my tiny wings flutter as i race through the darkened trees, us both slowing at a clearing that i had never been to. He slipped into an abandoned cottage, i had him now. Slowly i crept in but every step creaked of age and mold. I shut my eyes and wait till i could tell that his back was turned. I opened my eyes and a familiar spell fluttered around the cabin. I saw his face and i couldn't believe that it was you: an old friend. He turned and i lept up to the roof, my claws digging deep. He looked around and said," i know you're there Sira, why don't you come on down?" I let my claws go and landed with ease. As i stood, he ran to me, engulfing me in a hug. I couldn't return the hug, not after what he did. I backed out and i ran out, almost flying along as i went through the forest. I ran straight home and locked the door. I looked toward the window and i saw him, his eyes glowing maliciously. I ran to my bedroom and locked the door behind me, running into the small forge i had built. I knew that locked doors was a childs play with his magic, but i was stronger now due to my fall to the depths of flame. I gripped ataxias blade as i heard his footsteps. I heard the whispers of his magic cling to the lock of my door and it flung open, despite the enchantments. I was weak against him, he was more than the demon i knew, i looked to the window and i leaped out it, ataxia seeming to disperse in my hands. I called my vines to catch me, and they did. I burst to a run once more, my body slowly tiring out. He's playing mind games, why hasn't he hurt me yet?
