Chereads / The Phoenix / Chapter 11 - I've been discovered

Chapter 11 - I've been discovered

"I'll read it to you, let me know if this sound sane" Elios said with hostility in his voice "Romania Russo formally now known as Lindsay Ruden"

Lindsay had stayed quiet, she knew what was to come for only-

"..not to mention, Your Father has the largest gang in Italy and America, we even did business in the past surprisingly.." Elios reacted in surprise yet calmly, he thought she was just a naive girl with a small brain after all

"He had." Lindsay replied in pure anger, specially that he would go through her personal life without reason.

"My condolences" Elios said quietly not wanting to be heard "Let's continue shall we?"

"First person to win a scholarship for programming and architecture at the age of 14. During this time, she had moved around 17 different homes, 5 different states all in three years. Sketchy." He added

"Speaks fluent Italian, Spanish, French, English and Dutch. Worked as a city guide for NYC, a cook for an Italian restaurant in Italy, A tutor for young programmers in Belgium, all through the ages of 15-16

After getting accepted to Yale and declining Harvard she finished her studies taking in 2 years of her programming in a matter of 6 months. However, At the age of 16, she disappeared, last seen in her front porch at the age of 17, speaking to a man named Jordan Beau, never heard from again until fall of 2019 when sending a letter to Jordan Beau" He finished off surprised anyone would turn down Harvard or get into it itself.

"Are we done?" she asked standing wanting to leave and annoyed

"You told us you were kidnapped, we're you not?" he asked her staring at her eyes which once brought him comfort but were now full of lies in his eyes. "If you were kidnapped in summer of 2019, how were you able to send a letter to this Jordan Beau in fall of 2019, does he mean that much to you?" he added with a small note of attitude to his voice.

"If I tell you the story, promise me I will no longer be a prisoner here, I will be allowed to leave at anytime, or enter at anytime" she asked slyly, the truth was she had a plan all along.

"What's in it for me" Elios said getting comfortable on the sofa he sat in

"Well other than the truth, and not a bounty on your head for kidnapping the daughter of the largest gang leader, how about information on something that would potentially hurt each and every supernatural."

"Go on" he replied interested "but tsk, If I already know what the content is, you will no longer have those rights you requested" he made clear

Lindsay nodded in agreement. "You might think its just a myth, I have to warn you"

"Try me" he said as he got comfortable and waited.

"Well.." Lindsay started "What seems now like three to four years ago.. my mother, a psychic, became concerned that the humans were up to something based on the visions she had gotten of the supernaturals being taken into captivity and murdered viciously.

However, my mother being supernatural and my father being an Elder they couldn't pass as regular humans to investigate the cause.

They hid their tracks well, I must say. As you know, graduating programming without the actual knowledge of this happening gave them an idea.. where all I had to do was get kidnapped, fetch information and they would rescue me" Lindsay paused taking a break for what she was about to say next.

"But it didn't go as expected" she continued "In Yale University they help testings for some sort of human power boost we had thought. I had joined telling this group, telling the right kind of people that I was interested in their group. However, when everything was going to plan there became a complication, the leader of the Yale testing Group had gotten word that my family was supernatural" She began to look at the floor, in disbelief they could f*ck things up so bad, "you can do this" Lindsay told herself

"A few days later, a few men came to our house and took my father instead of me. He was no genius when it came to technology, and being an Elder (caretaker of the Earth) made him powerful enough for them to take him away..

My mother was then named the Russo's Leader (Gang) till my fathers return, meaning I was now alone needing to make a choice.. either to get my father back.. or to continue off with a new plan"

"I assume you continued off with the plan" Elios responded in disbelief she would leave her family in danger to take care of the rest of the world, "that takes courage" he told himself

"Correct. I moved to another school which then I took out of my online records for the students in Yale not to find me, and was then kidnapped. Jordan Beau, a former trustee of mine recieved the information later on given to my mother"

"Which was what exactly" Elios replied interested in that she was about to say next.

"They were collecting supernaturals of each kind in different aisles, hypnotizing them to believe that it was their home and that they should not escape... I had it figured out earlier than most so it didn't tske ahold on me..

Their goal was not to rid themselves of supernaturals though, it was to create a potion to get rid of the Phoenix.. so the demons could rise and take care of the rest" she said straightforwardly, giving him time to take it in.

"So what you're saying is.." he replied, his face as unsurprised as ever "they want to kill the Phoenix, a story legend might I repeat - being passed off years through history.. Without a prove that the daemonium (devil/demon) is even out of his cages OR Alive for all you know"

"Yes" Lindsay replied nodding in accord "I told you it might sound as a myth" she added

"If you brought me here to play games, I've had it with them. You will remain here till further notice." Elios replied to her pretentious story, as he stood in his feet and walking rapidly out the door, letting Joelle back into the room

"What's up with him?" Joelle asked confused on what just went on "And what's up with you?" she said as she looked at Lindsay who was no longer in a sick state

"I DESPISE THAT MAN" Lindsay said as she began ranting, unable to express her anger.

"Hey, It's fine just tell me what's wrong" Joelle replied comforting her as she watched Lindsay break a glass cup in her nightstand.

Lindsay stood in silence "I feel the need to snap something in half" she said making the gesture

"I have something in mind.." Joelle replied with a smirk in her face.

"Follow me" she said
