Elements

Secrets

As Evelyn slowly moved in behind the door, she heard the sharp raised voice of her father.

"Where have you been and what have you done to you're room!?" He shouted at her.

"I had to speak to Ariana. Whats wrong with my room?" She said back, but Evelyn already knew what was wrong with her room.

"Don't give me that. I don't know what you have done but it needs sorting out now!" He shouted back.

"Fine!" Evelyn then shouted as she began to storm up the stairs.

"And don't sneak out again!" He shouted up after her.

Evelyn continued up the stairs before finally slamming the door shut behind her, she turned to see the black stained wall behind her. It had barely even faded on the wall, but she felt the chills from before as her anger rised at her father. She had to stop this, or she was going to get found out. Evelyn then moved over to her four poster bed and fell down on top of it, Silver followed after her, jumping up on the opposite side. She sighed loudly as she knew there was no way she could explain the wall, the figures words crept back into her head again 'yournotsafe.'

Why was this all happening now, why wasn't there anybody she could ask. Silver moved closer placing his soft furry head on her shoulder, she reached up to run her hand through his fur.

"I guess I only have you here Silver." She said quietly to him.

His ears pricked up as she spoke, he didn't move and continued to let her stroke him.

All of a sudden a loud knocking came from Evelyn's door as she just lay looking at the ceiling. She could already guess who it was going to be.

"Come in." She sighed.

"Where the hell have you been? Father has been going crazy and what have you even done to your wall?" She asked quickly and angrily.

"Kathleen. I've already been through this once, I'm not explaining again." Evelyn said as she continued to sigh as her sister.

"Yes you will. It looks like you've set for to the place. Are you mad?" She then said shocked.

"It must have been my alarm clock." Evelyn said quietly.

"Don't lie. That's more than that stupid alarm clock and you know it. Now tell me." She demanded.

"Look its nothing ok. I'm sorting it out, so can you just go please."

"Fine. But I'm gonna find out, I always do." Kathleen then said as she left the room, closing the door firmly behind her.

She was the last person Evelyn wanted to know and yet when her sister said she would find out, somehow she usually did. She slowly rolled over to look at the wall, the black burnt mark seemed different than before, almost like it was getting worse. She cautiously stared at the wall before moving closer, reaching out her hand. As she place her hand against it, the mark began to fade. Blue slowly started to return to that part of the wall, her eyes widened as the marl finally disappeared like it had never existed. She quickly pulled back her hand and stared into her palm. There was nothing. It was like the mark had never happened.

Evelyn tilted her head as she continued to stare. Suddenly the sound from Silver woke her out of the trance as the dog looked up at her. She sighed heavily as she turned her eyes to him before slowly making her way to the bed. One thing running through her head, there was four of them now.

As the sun streamed through her window, Evelyn blinked open her eyes. The soft light hitting the green shade within her eyes, another day and she still had to find out what the elements mean to her and her friends. As she stirred slowly she suddenly realised Silver had disappeared from the room, Evelyn quickly sat up and scanned the room around her. Silver was completely gone. Without hesitation she jumped from the bed and headed towards the big, oak door while softly calling out.
