Chapter 51 - Chapter 50 Talk

She turns to him aiming her dagger at his neck, he's seeing that this will happen quickly takes the dagger from her,

"Need talk," He said

She stares at him, not believing that he wants to talk then takes a step away from him, he walks over to her bed and takes a seat on it looking at her with curiosity in his eyes, Avalon felt an odd aura with him, it feels like it's trying to bring her closer. odd right?

She sighs, slowly walking over to him, concerned about his motives. She sits away from him on the edge of her bed,

"What do you want?" Avalon asks

He tilts his head in wonder them he moves next to her and takes hold of her hand,

"Do you know? what you are,"

Avalon shot up from the bed wanting to hear that answer for a long time, waiting for someone to tell her but... for this lab-made experiment that tried to kill her, It was better to keep looking than to trust him,

"Yes it's... something that I've been looking for most of my life, but why should I trust you or your word, you do remember you attack me not so long ago," Avalon said

He nods in agreement,

"Indeed, I don't think you should. Though I need to tell you or I will forever regret it," He said

She contemplates the statement, knowing he could tell her lies and make her believe what's wrong, but she cannot help the curiosity bubbling in her,

"Do you understand how special you are? Avalon. Avalon? Hmm, you know what that name means?" He asked

"No, I don't. My mother gave me her name before she... die got choked to death,"

"For that, I'm sorry I don't think that makes up for it, but do you know why she gave you that name," He continued to push her,

"I told you I..." She said

"The isles of Avalon," He whispers

She felt her heart wrench from his words,

"What?"

"The isles of Avalon the tale as old as time. You have a meaning to this Avalon. You have a bloodline to the tale,"

She stood up, not believing this, and asks,

"Why are you telling me this? You should not be here at all, so please the window is open,"

Avalon was towards the door not waiting for him to answer, but he got up and grabs her hand turning her around,

"I have to tell you for a reason, you have no other idea of where you got these weird daggers, do you?" He said

She stayed quiet… why ask her now of all time to do it now? She wanted to rest and get ready for her next mission, but maybe he is onto something,

"It's from some lady that you might know, but I can't tell you… you are now going to be a target of dark things that will hurt you," He said

"Look I don't trust this at all. But whatever you're talking about, I can't just take what you just told me at face value," she said

He lets her go, giving her a slight smile, and says,

"I understand, take your time. I need to think about it myself," He said

He walks over to the window and opens it, looking back at Avalon one more time before jumping out of the window, then running across the rooftops out of her site,

"Is he ever a clone?" she said

Avalon stares at the window before looking at her dagger, seeing it glow under the moonlight?

"How long have I been talking to him?"

She stopped waiting to smell her burning food, but it never happens, she walks out of the room and down the stairs to the kitchen to find the oven off,

"Where did it go," Avalon said

She took a look in the oven finding the food not there but on the counter in front of her, she walks over to it with a plate and utensils, she then stopped hearing footsteps behind her. Avalon wants until they stopped before hitting the plate on top of their head,

"The hell?" Avalon said

She holds the fork in her head, glaring at the man that just talked to her, but… something seems off about him. He's just staring at her, not telling her that he means no harm or explaining why he came back,

"What do you want now?" she asked

He sat up glaring at her standing up, she backs away noticing the anger radiating off him then he moved toward her not saying a word following her as she starts to move towards where her dagger is,

"What are you doing! we just talked and now you want to what? Hurt me, kill me?" Avalon yelled

Avalon looks behind her seeing him not showing any emotion or feeling at all, she just notices the outrage pouring out of him

"Whatever is wrong with... him."

She runs to the door, quickly closing it behind her and locking it before running to her dagger, but it's not there,

"It was here," she said

He started to hit the door trying to break it, Avalon looks around the room finding none of her weapons but her phone stand, her phone lit up showing that she's getting a call from Jane as she got her phone his hand goes through the door,

"Let me in!"

Avalon takes the call, hearing Jane's's concerned voice go through it,

"Avalon? Avalon are you there,"

"I might n," Avalon said

The door rest of the door breaks open showing the clone looking worse. its skin from its hand ripping apart,

"Avalon, what was that?" Jane said

She holds it to her ear starting at him walking through the broken door menacingly glaring at her, they didn't move the Jane keep asking Avalon what was wrong, and the clone didn't like that he ran at her trying to grab her by the throat but she moves away from him jumping over the bed her phone still in her hands,

Avalon attempts to use her energy but nothing happens no light, no iridescent knives, nothing.

"Where did my energy go," Avalon asked

She runs downstairs again and strides toward the kitchen, where the knives are,

"Avalon, you have to tell me what going on," Jane said

"Jane, I can't at the..." She said

She felt arms wrap around her pulling her from getting the knives and bringing her into his chest,
