Mira was silently slipping between trees. Running.... running from him... It was now past 2:oo am and she knew help wasn't likely to be found if she screamed so she kept her feet lightly pounding the ground. She tripped on a stump lightly gashing her head, but scrambled up. She said a silent prayer as she struggled on to continue. She knew now that it was only a matter of when he would get her... not if...
As if a reply to her fears she fell once again though this time not able to get up. She scrambled to the nearest tree hoping to get somewhere but she was to late. She turned and saw his eyes pits of darkness... She opened her mouth in a scream only to be cut short as the man grabbed her neck. She pulled his hannds desperatly trying to free herself. Slowly time ticked away and she struggled for air....
Sarah was walking around but she was not sure what for she just had this gut feeling.
Mira used her wand to send sparks up into the air as a last meek atempt.
There was a pop, and Ginny appeared, her hair hanging down in front of her face, her hands already clenced into fists. She had been woken by Mira's brain pattern spikes, and knew that something was wrong. She looked at the scene before her, Mira being strangled by a man.
"Let her go, " Ginny said, almost bored.
Jessie apparated, because she wanted to see Mira, then screamed and fainted because of the sight. When she recovered, she stood up and screamed and fainted again because of the blood.
Sarah stood there when her wand drawn.
"let her go or you will be sorry."
Jessie got up and pointed her wand at the man as well *Yeah... what she said*
Sarah stood there she was not afraid to fight.
Lindsay was awoken by screaming. She ran down to the forest to see Mira being strangled by a man. She wasn't sure what to do so she climbed up in a tree.
((Nice.))
*Come on stop strangling her!!*
Sarah looked at Ginny.
"Make him stop or I will." she hated her friends in pain.
Molly couldn't take it anymore. She jumped out of the tree landing on the man that was strangling mira. using a power that her evil father had taught her she waved her wand throwing the man against a tree.
((thanks))
Jessie ran over to Mira. *Mira!! Are you ok?? What happened? Why was he following you? Who is he????? BREATHE!!!!*
Molly walked over to the man that was strangling Mira. She slaped him across the face and grabbed him by the neck pulling of his mask. She didn't know who he was though.
(guys, you have to wait for mira.)
(Sry computer wasn't working so I haven't gotten to this one for a while. Um... I'll just go with what happened so far...) Mira came around. "J... Jessie. No... no. Run. He's to powerful..." Mira's head started to spin and she had to brace herself with a tree.
"Mira, calm down, child." Ginny's voice was soft as she spoke next to Mira's ear. She smiled, "He can't do anything else to you. Not while I'm around."
Sarah stood there waiting for a time to attack. Sarah did not want to so she would not unless she had to.
"Ginny's right Mira. Ya'll are safe."
Ginny nodded, placing a reassuring hand on Mira's shoulder.
"If you'd like, kiddo, I can get rid of him."
"No just let him leave..." She gasped. "He'll find a way to come back stronger... He always does..." She looked over at him meeting his icy stare for the last time before he slunk away into the bushes.
"You'll all regret this day!" As he left you could hear those final words. Those horrifying words. They slinked into earshot on the wind and sent a chill up Mira's spine.
Ginny nodded, her hand still on Mira's shoulder, "Ignore him, he is not as big and bad as he thinks he is."
"That's what I wish I could think..."
Jessie went over to Mira. *Oh my gosh Mi!! Are you ok?? What did he do!?* Jessie sat down next to her friend, her eyes filled with worry.
Sarah stood back If he did try to come back Sarah would be ready while the others took care of Mira.
Jessie switched her wand to her left pocket, so that if he did come back, she too would be ready.
Mira faked a smile for Jessie's sake. "I... I'm fine really..." Mira tried to stand up, but fell back down knocking the wind out of her. "Offf... I guess I'm still a little... wobbly..."
Sarah smiled. "Mira stay on the ground we don't want you hurting yourself."
Jessie bit her nail. *Yeah... you can't hurt yourself...Jessie tried to think of a way to give Mira strength, but her mind was to cluttered to come up with any.
"Jessie really I'm fine really!"
*No hun, your not. Now sit back and rest!! You need more energy*
"I am! Really the only thing stopping me from getting up is this stupid left leg!"
*What's wrong with it?* Jessie asked.
"Mira shut your mouth." Sarah said as she sat there.
"Your hurt and you need to sit there or I will make you sit there." sarah looked at her.

*What's wrong with it?* Jessie asked.
"Well when he let go of me I dropped to the ground spraining it... But don't worry if I could just get some water I could heal it..."

"Mira shut your mouth." Sarah said as she sat there.
"Your hurt and you need to sit there or I will make you sit there." sarah looked at her.
"Well I'm sorry! And you can't make me do anything!" Mira snapped.
Sarah laughed and then put a shield around her so she could not get out.
"Now I wait next time before you say something."
Jessie put her hands up *Woah! Guys! Can we just cool it? I mean... Mira, you have a sprained ankle... you can't walk anyways so just stay where you are, and it will help the rest of us if you stop talking. Sarah, please get rid of this protective bubble, I mean I realize what you're trying to do, but we need all of our energy in case he comes back.* Jessie said trying to clear the air between the two.
"oh well okay fine but if she runs away I will." Sarah smiled.
"He's not comming back right away." Ginny said, smiling slightly at Jessie. She patted Mira's shoulder, "Be good."
*Deal* Jessie said laughing
sarah stood there ready to do what ever she had to do. "So Ginny how you been."
Mira stood up using the tree for support and putting her wait on her right foot.
"Hey I'm sorry about the shield Mira." Sarah said as she stood there.
"Yeah... I'm sorry 'bout snapping at you... Do you have water?"
Sarah smiled as she got out and empty jug. She was great at elementals so the then filled the jug with it and threw it to Mira.
"Here you go."
"Thanks." Miar moved her hand in a wave like motion and the water came out of the jug and wrapped around her foot. It was like a cast, a water based cast.
"Mira one question." Sarah then looked at the ground. "Who was that guys."
Jessie watched Mira. Then she swirled her hands around going *swishhhhhhhhh swishhhh* it looked like nothing had happened, but she actually was holding an energy ball in her hands. she tossed it around a little bit. *Catch!* She said tossing it to Mira. It was completely invisible, being made out of energy, and she would catch it if she pretended she was actually catching something.
Sarah then sat back in a different tree hidden and watched her friends have fun.
Mira held out her hand still surrounded with water and caught it.
*Watch this!!* Jessie said, making a new energy ball. ((Her element is energy I suppose)) She ate it, then spit it out, and it was still there.
Sarah smiled her friends were so goofy some times.
Ginny cleared her throat loudly, her face grim, "Mira?"
She paused, making sure she had all three girl's attention, "Who was he and what did he want?"
"He's.... He was... my father..."
"What." Sarah siad as she feel out of the tree.
"And why would he want to kill you?" Ginny questioned, quietly. She wasn't surprised in the least.
Sarah then stood up and straitened her clothes and listening.
"How am I supposed to know? Do you really think I go and ask the man who killed my mother and now wants to kill me, why?"
"Hey there calm down I mean. If your upset it won't help no one."
"Sorry sometimes I just don't get why... why he killed my mother..." Mira all of a sudden had a frown on her face and the tree in front of her started to sway back and forth for no apparent reason. There wasn't even any wind.
"Mira what the matter." Sarah said when she saw here face. She knew something was wrong.
"I don't know sometimes I just... I just...." The tree swayed more voilently and cracking noises could be heard.
Sarah stood there drawling her wand getting ready to attack if something happened.
"Ugh!" The tree trunk snapped in half and as it did Mira's eyes flashed pure white then she sank to the ground once more gasping.
Sarah ran over to them and put her hand one her. "You okay. What going on."
Sarah put up a shield around them waiting for an answer.
"I don't know... lately its been happening a lot... thats when my dad came after me..."
"Mira your going to be safe I promise." Sarah then let the shild down and held her wand back up.
Ginny smiled, "Sounds like the rest of your powers are revealing themselves." She watched the girls, not frightened at all.
Jessie ran over to her and put an energy sheild up. It was her element so it was very strong.
*Mira, it's ok, if you want, we can take you back to the dorm... we can even push our beds together if it would make you feel safer* Jessie offered kneeling next to her.
Mira looked at Ginny. "Ginny do you think thats why hes after me?"
Sarah knew that this was scary and this is why she was staying here to help.
"Probably, hun. Guys like him want more power, need the power, but don't have the abilities themselves." She smiled, pattting Mira's shoulder again.
"So what do I do? Just hide my powers? Well to late for that. Or should I just hide the rest of my life until he dies?" Mira had only a hint of asrcasm in her voice.
"Well, you could learn to fight back. But judging by your tone, you don't want to learn from the best teacher around." Ginny smirked, smugly.
Mira's eyes flashed defiantly and another tree fell closer to Ginny now. "Well, I would like to learn from Ginny." Mira's tone changed again to mimick Ginny's earlier tone. "Not... The best teacer around."
Ginny smirked, this time rubbing Mira's head, messing up her hair. "Sounds like you get the two for one deal." She told her.
"Oh lucky me!" Mira said sarcastically. Then she stood up laughing and fixed her hair.\
Sarah smiled.
"Your right. I mean look at me I could be better."
Ginny smiled, standing as well. She pushed her hair back, away from her eyes, "Sometime soon, I'll get ahold of you. Until then, get Sarah to help. I taught her alot, she knows the basics of what I'd teach you."
She frowned, "I'm a bit busy for a while, otherwise I'd train you tomorrow...but there are a few things I need to fix in my own life before I can let Xaver marry me."
*Oh, Ginny, would you teach me too?* Jessie asked hopefully. *You could teach me at the same time as Mira, and even though I can make trees fall just by looking at them, my element is energy and I don't really know what I can do with it yet...*
Mira looked at Jessie. "Jessie I didn't even know how I did that!"
*you still can do it!* Jessie said
Sarah smiled.
"Jessie if Ginny can't I will I mean I'm pretty good at energy."
*Sweet!! Because all I know is that that is my main element!!*
"Ugh its so stupid all I can do with this power is destroy!"
Sarah smiled at Mira.
"That because your not trained yet. once you are you will not just be that way."
"Ugh i just wish I could..." Mira's eyes turned white again and a flash of light apeared before the tree that had been knocked down. The light instantly disappeared as quickly as it had come. Then the tree was back together, though now Mira was dizzy, verry dizzy. "How did I? How do I?"
"It your powers you wanted to use it for good so you channeled it to fix thing."
"Thats the thing I don't know if I'm doing good... or bad..."
*Then Sarah, maybe you can help her a little now, so that she doesn't faint*
"I... I won't faint..." Just as she said that Mira swayed a little and crashed to the forest floor, unconcious.
Jessie knelt by Mira. She didn't quite know what she was doing, but she did it anyways. She created an energy ball that was just a swirling ball. She took that and placed it on Mira's chest, where her heart would be, and pushed on it until it was completely gone. Jessie felt weak, and tired, but waited to see if it had worked
Mira's eyes fluttered open. "Jessie.." She slurred still on the ground.
*Mira! You're going to be ok! Just rest now!* Jessie said putting a comforting hand on Mira's shoulder.
Ginny watched Jessie help Mira with an amused smile on her face, "You two know more than you realize."
Sarah stood there. "ya I mean I was getting headaches and well did not know what I was doing. Ya have already learned how to channel that power."
"If you think I have any clue what I'm doing then your crazy."
Ginny smirked, "Call me crazy then, because subconsiously, you do know what you are doing."
*Seriously, I have no idea, I just thought that it was worth a try, Ive never even heard of it being done although I'm sure it has...* Jessie said tiredly refusing to yawn.
"It has been done. It's one thing I saw while I was learning some healing a few years ago. I never did it, perfering to use a little magic as I can when healing." She smiled slightly,then yawned herself, rubbing her eyes. She had been sleeping when Mira had been attacked, and now she wanted to go back home and crawl under the blankets next to Xaver.
Mira herself yawned. "Jesse am I tired!"
Jessie held her lips together stifling a yawn. *Then you should sleep* she said
Mira looked at her eyes. "You should to!"
Sarah smiled she was about the only one that was not tired.
"HOw about all of ya you back to bed and I'll keep watch tonight. I mean your all tired."
Jessie yawned and nodded, she lay her head down on her arm and fell asleep.
Ginny stood straight now, fishing in her pocket for something. She pulled out a small glass water orb, a bit bigger than a marble. She held it towards Sarah, holding it in the palm of her hand, gently, carefully.
"If you need me, smash this against something." She told her. She didn't explain how it would work, not wanting to explain how souls and powers were connected.
Sarah looked at her.
"OKay I will she then sat there protecting her friends."
Ginny looked at the two younger girls, her face changing to one of softness. And longing. Longing for that time, that wondrous youth. She shook herself from it though and nodded to Sarah, "That will always reach me. And I will always come. Keep them safe."
She took a few steps away, then turned, pushing her hair from her eyes, "Oh, and say hi to that idiot you married, OK?" With that, Ginny faded from Sarah's vision, becoming a shadow and disappearing quietly and quickly.
Sarah smiled. "I will."
Sarah then looked at the girl. "Mira you can sleep now."
It was already to late Mira was zonked on the ground.
Sarah smiled watching her friends.
wow guys tht was a brilliant story (ME LIKELY THE STORY A LOTTY
All of a suddon twigs began to crack in the distance. Mira stayed sleeping, but the sound got nearer and nearer.
Sarah held out her wand.
"Who there show yourself."
((Uhm... this is an RP.... so you can join it too!!))
Jessie slept soundly. She snored and rolled over mumbling something about a monkey stealing her bananas.
(monkey stilling bananas lol)
its just me yazzy dont worry
Sarah walked a couple steps towards the noice she was wanting to know what it was.
Jessie reached out and broke a twig off of a nearby tree. *You never take take Jessie's bananas!!* She held it close to her stroking it lovingly.
