Chapter 7 - Isabella - My view of things

Impaled with a needle, I passed out only for a short amount of time. When I woke up, I saw the house into flames. "Leo? Leo?! No!" The next second, the lady with the gun started dragging me to a large military grade truck. I glanced back a couple of times, my eyes widened; I saw a group of soldiers, shooting at the innocent crowd. I heard all kind of screams: Men, women, pets and even children. The lady opened the back-door and tossed me inside, she then closed it in an instant.

"You too?"

I could not see anything, it was pitch black. It seemed like a younger voice, a girl's voice to be exact. "Y-yea." My body kept shaking, trembling at the thought that they just slaughtered all those people, I didn't know all of them but, they did not deserve that. "Who are you?" Light's turned on, I saw 4 others. Two girls and two other guys who were asleep, it also looked like one of them was injured. Telling by the bandage across the side of her face. The left side.

"Hey.. m-my name's Amelia. W-who are you?"

"She is one of us, Amelia."

I looked around and it was the other girl who was talking, she had a scar on her cheek looked to be a knife scar. "Anyway's who are you." The girl glared at me with less intensity but with curiosity.

"Oh. Uh, my name is Isabella." I tried to not look at her scar, I mean not really look at her directly, just by telling. She is horrifying in personality wise. I had thoughts of who the other guys are, as I glanced at the two guys.

"Alright, Isabella." I turned quickly, looking back at the other lady.

"My name is Aria. I think we are all here for reason right? It's obvious what that reason is. Right?"

I looked at Amelia and she looked at me, we both shrugged our shoulders at Aria.

"Your both idiots, it is because of our supernatural abilities, duh." Aria smacked the back of my head and Amelia's.

"Can you just shut up?" One of the boy's woke up, and looked at us "Don't start fighting please." He stood up, he was the same height as me. That if I can remember my own height. He stretched just a bit. "Hey, name's Nathan, just for short. Call me Nate." I looked at the other boy, who was still sleeping. "That's Mason, he seems fatigued. Poking his body and all I can tell." Nate snickered.

30 minutes passed

I heard the lady, yell to the truck. "Drive the rest to the backup facility!" The truck started up. It started to drive, fast. I didn't expect it, so I fell over but...

I smiled to myself, thinking "If we are leaving now, that means Leo must've escaped or he died." I slightly blushed at the thought. I felt someone poking my cheek. It was Amelia. I glanced at her.

Amelia asked with concern in her voice "Hey, Isabella. Why are you smiling and blushing?"

I faced Amelia and said "It's because they did not catch the last of us. Leo. He has fire."

Having some small talk with Amelia, something caught my eye. It was strange.

Amelia's eyes turned sapphire, turning to each person, her eyes scanning each one. "Amelia?" I said it with a worried tone, I was concerned. Aria and Nathan turned at me and Amelia with a questioned look.

Amelia started saying in an android voice while looking at me. " Isabella Hunter; Age: 15 years old;

Gender: Female, born: July 17th, 1995. Former resident of, Seville, Spain. Transferred to Miami, Florida in 2004. She has: The Curse of Zeus. Other information disclosed."

No one, having any time to react to Amelia, not even me. She kept talking like a supercomputer. It slightly scared me, considering she knew a couple things about me. Even though, I've said nothing about myself.

Amelia quickly snapped to face Aria, "Aria Starr; Age: 17 years old; Gender: Female; Born: March 9th, 1993. Former resident of, Santiago, Chile. Transferred to Miami, Florida in 2009. She has: The Curse of Adarna. Other information disclosed."

I looked at Aria, right after Amelia revealed the information. I kept looking at Aria, not caring about any of it, she flipped me off. I was, not surprised. Looking back at Amelia, who was about to talk again.

"Nathan Valentine; Age: 16 years old; Born: January 16th, 1994. Former resident of, Detroit, Michigan; Moved to Miami, Florida. In 2007. He has: The Curse of Ares. Other information disclosed.

I looked at Nathan, he looked surprised of what Amelia said out loud.

"Mason Parker; Age: 15 years old; Born: October 31st, 1995. Former resident of, Lyon, France. Transferred to Miami, Florida. In 2010. He has: The Curse of the Black Dog. Other information disclosed."

The trucked stopped, I said with a scared look, "Were at our final destination." Gulping, as the truck door, opened and closed. I could hear footsteps, ready to open the back of the truck. Which we were all in.

I must have hope.

Hope to live.

Hope to even make it out of this.

Alive.
