The sun came through the curtains and enlightened the whole room. London's eyes flickered from the sunlight. It was dawn, and less than an hour she had classes.

It's been two years since her powers first appeared. She was at the orphanage and along with Emerald they were helping the youngest children to get ready for school, like any other day, afterwards they got ready as well.

On their way to school they talked about their birthday and how they were going to celebrate them. The age difference between them was just four days. They ended up agreeing in celebrating their birthday in the new club at the city's center. Even thought the club had just opened everyone at school was talking about it. It had become really famous, and it had only been open for two days, Emerald had her doubts at first since everyone was talking about the club, she was worrying that it would be too crowded and that they wouldn't be able to have fun.

The bell rang and all the kids went to their classrooms. You couldn't hear the children's voices from the hallway anymore. Absolute silence. London's steps were the only thing anyone could here, in that silent hall. When suddenly London heard heavy steps from behind her, she turned around to see but there was no one in the hall. She thought it was just her imagination playing tricks, but as the time passed the steps became even heavier.

She could hear her heart bursting through her chest. She heard the sound of the golden leaves that the wind softly blows them away, she even heard the wings of the scared pigeons that were flying away from the cat that was looking for her pray. She closed her eyes and all the sounds stopped, she thought that she was going crazy, that she was hearing things. The silence broke from the sound of the heavy steps once again, and this time they were even louder. She opened her eyes and she saw a boy with white skin and black hair, his eyes were even darker, they had the color of his hair. A soulless black. He was tall and his body structure was well-built. He was wearing a school uniform that she never saw before.

As the boy was passing beside her, she felt as if she was having difficulty to breath, her legs felt weak, it was as they were about to give up, but London refused to show weakness especially in front of a stranger. When she turned around to see where the boy with the black eyes was headed, she saw nothing but an empty hall. She felt her spine tingling. she had so many questions. Who was that boy? Was he real or was it just me imagining things? And his school uniform, I've never seen it before.

-London? A voice from behind her, interrupt her thoughts. It was Emerald. Her emerald eyes were nailed on her. Emerald's eyes had a rare green color, emerald, apparently that was the cause of Emeralds name, that's what the orphanage's head mother had told them, it wasn't hard to believe it either. The only possible reason for London to be jealous of Emerald would be her eyes. They were like a gem stone. London hated her own eyes, even when people were telling her that she had a rare silverish gray color, she despised them it was as if they were soulless, like that boy's eyes. She felt her spine tingling once again at the thought of that boy.

-London are you okay? Her friend asked her with eyes filled with worry. Before she answers to her, she looked back to where that boy was supposed to be, but she saw nothing, it was as if he was never there. Then she turned to her friend. Putting a fake smile on her face she answered her.

-I'm okay. Emerald of course didn't believe her, after fourteen years of living together; she knew her far to well to be convinced from this fake expression. She knew how to make her talk about her problems and she also knew when was the right time to make her talk. -Why aren't you in the classroom? She asked her.

-because I have gymnastics and I was in the bathroom. What about you?

-The members of the student council have a meeting in the next period, and as the president of the student council I have to get the paperwork ready.

-You had math, didn't you?

-How did you know?

-because we lived together for fourteen years and I know you far too well. Seriously London, what kind of question was that? And besides all of that I saw your program Friday morning first and second period math in the third period you have chemistry and in the fourth English.

-well the part of the meeting with the student council was true.

-If you say so. Emerald teased her

-I mean it!

-I know, when you lie you always play with your hair, that's how I know when you're lying. Anyway, I better get going back to the class, or else I'm going to get yelled again for being late. See you later London. She said as she was walking at the direction of the gym, leaving her friend to the empty hallway alone with her thoughts. Her mind traveled back to that boy. She couldn't stop thinking of him. She wondered if she would see him again, that is if he was indeed real, and it wasn't her imagination.

The hours passed quickly and school was over, before London even realized it. With the last ring of the bell, all the kids left the classroom sighing. Happy that school was over. At least for this week. They all ran towards the exit eager to go home.

Nickolas, Tyler or Ty, that's how the girls were calling him, Bony, London and Emerald, all left from the school at the same time, as they were walking, they made plans for the night. When they reached the orphanage, they said their goodbyes, for the time being, that is. They were supposed to meet at eleven o'clock to the new club in order to celebrate Emeralds and London's birthday.

When they got inside, all the younger kids run towards them and hugged them, after that they started pulling them towards the dining room. The table was ready and full of foods. Emerald thought looking the head mother with eyes full of gratitude. Even though they didn't have much money and Emerald and London had to find well-paid part time jobs, the orphanage's head mother always made dinners with cake and plenty of food whenever a kid had their birthday or whenever a kid was adopted. Of course, with the little money they got from their part time jobs, they were helping them.

The head mother always thought the kids of the orphanage as her own, she couldn't have any kids of her own due to an accident, so she and her husband founded the orphanage. Her husband used to be this little towns mayor but he had to retire because of his illness. Emerald and London was the first kids of the orphanage, but they were adopted from the head mother and her husband. That's why they never left the orphanage it wasn't because no one had adopted them, on the contrarily, it was because they got adopted.

Everyone sat down at the table, after they pray, they started eating and talking about their day. After they finished all the kids helped the head mother and the volunteer, to clean the table.

When the girls started to head towards their rooms, a big plumped woman with her hair caught in a bun blocked their way. That was the head mother. She put her hands at her waist and told to the kids to sit back to the table. They laughed at first, but they did as they were told. Emerald and London found this sudden "meeting" weird at first, but not long after they realized what was going on. The volunteer, a skinny blonde woman, went to the kitchen and sort after she came back holding a big cake and having a big smile on her face.

Everyone at the dining room started singing. All the children's voices, laughs made the two girls happy, they truly couldn't wish for a better family than that. After they blew their candles and ate the cake, the head mother gave a box to each of the girls.

-I know it's not much, but I would love to see you wearing them toning for your birthday. Inside the boxes there were two beautiful dresses. The girl's expressions were filled with excitement. They were keeping their money to treat their friends for their birthday so they weren't able to buy any dresses. They immediately hugged their step mother and step farther and thanked them for the dresses.

The hours passed by like a heartbeat, and it was almost eleven o'clock. The girls left from the orphanage in a hurry in order to meet with their friends.

After they arrived at the club, they met with their friends and together they waited on the line in order to go inside. The man at the front of the gate, asked for their identities. After they handed their identities and the man checked their ages, he allowed them to go inside. When they got in the club the loud music made their hearts skip a bit. There were many people that were dancing, they tried to get to the bar but the people around them were pushing them around, eventually they made it. Emerald knew it would be like this, with so many people, and so loud music. she thought. After they got their drinks Tyler, London and Emerald went to dance, leaving behind Nickolas and Bony so they can have some time alone, since those two were a couple.

After a long time when Emerald got tired from all the dancing and the high hills, she went to the bar. On her way there she collided with a boy. Her emerald eyes met his. His eyes had different colors, his left eye was green while his right eye was brown. She got lost in them and the same thing happened to him, he fell for her Emerald eyes.

-Excuse me. He apologized breaking the silence. Afterwards he moved forward, leaving her behind. She kept looking at his back. "he had such a weird set of eyes, but they were beautiful as well. I got lost in them. one of his eyes was a beautiful green and the other was the lightest of brown, such an uncommon pair of eyes" she thought.

At the same time London started looking for her best friend whom she considered a sister, when she spotted her, she noticed that she was staring at someone but she couldn't tell who it was. Her silverish grey eyes landed at a man who was around her age maybe a bit older. He had black hair and white skin. That was the boy she saw at the school. He was such a handsome man and that was why the woman surrounded him. From the edge of her eye, she noticed Emerald walking towards him. She thought it was weird cause she knew her friends taste in man, even a man as charming as him, wasn't able to captivate her. It was then when she noticed his friend, he was a bit shorter than him with black hair and his skin was a little bit darker than his, but his eyes, even in a distance she was able to notice the two different colored eyes. She founded weird but for someone like Emerald, that would be charming.

His shorter friend whispered something to him and they started heading for the door. Emerald followed them, London started following them as well.

Half a minute later Emerald was outside not long after London appeared but there was no trace of the boys anywhere. The only ones there was some middle-aged man, who were looking at the girls like they never saw a female in their entire life before. Emerald felt sick, when she started heading back inside to the club a man grabbed her right wrist, another man was behind her blocking her way. The other man headed for London. Emeralds heart started racing, a big and powerful wind blew the two man away from her. she was shocked, she had no idea of what was going on. At the same time London's wrists started to burn, the pain was awful, it was like someone tared her hand right open. But she was to scared of the man in front of her to scream. He trapped her at the wall. The pain got stronger but that was the half of it, that man was about to touch her. She was about to raise her hand so she could push the man away. That was when her blades, one blade in each wrist, were inserted the man's body. He died sort after. London started screaming watching the dead man in front of her and the blades in her hands with the blood of that man. Soon after she felt a small pain in the back of her head and she black out same thing happen to Emerald, but before she blacks out, she saw the same boy from before with those beautiful eyes he headed for the two man. That was her last memory of that night. When she woke up, she was at her room, she went to check on London, she was at her room as well, lying in her bed in a deep slumber. It was then when she noticed the eagle tattoo at her wrist. the eagle looked like he was about to attack, but when did that tattoo appear and how? she barely drank a beer last night she wasn't drunk to do anything stupid like a tattoo and an eagle nonetheless, what the hell was going on?
