Chereads / Hybridia: A New Light / Chapter 3 - When Magic Appears

Chapter 3 - When Magic Appears

Dia and Anorie walked to Central Park after finishing their Literature project for Ms. Lippet to get some ice-cream.

"What flavor, Miss?" The man in the ice-cream truck asked.

"I'll have cookies'n cream!" Dia replied.

"And I'll have chocolate fudge." Anorie stated.

The girls sat down at a bench and began licking their ice-creams. Anorie glanced at the sky and saw the sun beggining to set, making the silvery clouds a vibrant shade of pink.

"What are you looking at?" Dia asked, shaking Anorie from her thoughts.

"Well I-"

"Dia! Anorie!"

Dia and Anorie turned around and saw 2 of their friends from school. Jessica Carrew and Rochelle Isles.

Jess was casual as usual, a white spaghetti strap, jeans that were rolled up to reach her shins, and her dark brown hair that was rolled in a bun.

Rochelle was more girly, a white button up blouse, a pink felt jacket that reached her elbows, a matching pink skirt, and her blond hair was dancing in the wind.

"Well, here come the tree nymphs!" Dia stated. Anorie cracked up at the nickname. Jess and Roch had always loved nature and were always trying to preserve it, so it's no wonder they found them at the park.

The 2 other girls then sat down and made conversation with Dia and Anorie. They were all laughing because Dia could just make a joke about any topic.

Then Anorie noticed Dia tense and saw her eyes narrow at someone across the park. She couldn't really see who Dia was looking at as Dia had better eyesight than her.

"Hey guys," Dia said. "Isn't that George Frawley?"

All of the girls turned and groaned when they saw who Dia was pointing at.

None other than George Frawley, that damn son of a gorgon.

"Well, look on who we have here."

The girls groaned again.

"The book loving freaks all hanging in the park."

He suddenly then grabbed Rochelle's collar, chocking her in the proccess.

Anorie's instincts acted up, she grabbed George's hand and smacked him in the face.

To say Rochelle was pissed would be an understatement.

Her normal emerald eyes were glowing with energy the color of sea green.

"Rochelle, don't!" Dia said as she held Rochelle's wrist.

Roots came out of the ground, wrapped around Dia's torso and threw her 3 meters away.

"Dia!" Anorie exclaimed.

"Never piss me off again." Rochelle rasped.

The roots then wrapped around George's body. George was literally peeing in his pants.

"Understand?"

"Y-y-yes, Rochelle."

Rochelle smiled with homicidal glee and flicked her wrist, making the roots go back into the ground.

George ran away as fast as he can, looking past his shoulder to make sure Rochelle wasn't following him.

Rochelle's knees then buckled beneath her. She opened her eyes and they were the usual emerald green.

She was shivering, probably scared of what she just did.

"Okay, what the *beep* just happened!?" Dia exclaimed.
