Slicing My Flesh

25

"Relationship problems." She looked down and sighed. I gulped because her whole aura got heavy.

"My so called mate broke up with me." I tried to release some of the awkwardness. I didn't want to mention said mate also raped me, as well as me having another mate.

"My so called mate cheated on me." She said. Well, shit.

"That's worse." She dryly chuckled at my comment. "So what are you and where am I?"

"You're in the light realm-"

"Ahh! You're an angel." I snapped my fingers. "Do you have wings?" She nodded. "Cool! Can I see them?!" I jumped up.

She shrugged and turned her back to me. My smile widened as she allowed her wings to show. They were a beautiful pure white with intricate designs. I reached out to touch them, but she slapped my hand away. I pouted while she smirked.

"You're easily impressed." She walked past me.

"Hey! Where are you goin?" I ran to catch up with her.

"To the gate to remove you from this realm."

"Why?" I whined.

"Because you're not an angel or resident of the light realm. We're currently preparing for a war and not interested in housing uninvited visitors." She stated. "And then I'll do a spell to make you forget."

"You can do magic?" She nodded. "That's dope. I didn't know angels could do magic."

"We have some powers." She said over her shoulder. "I can create ice and conduct electricity."

"Wow!" I was amazed. "What's your name?"

"That's none of your business."

"Oh come on!" I groaned. "Why do you have to be so rude?" I complained. "It's just your name." I begged.

"Since you're so annoying... it's Kennedy." She smiled. "What about you?" We had arrived at the gate.

"Zena." Her eyes widened when I revealed my name. "Adieu!" I waved and jumped across the border.

"Wait! Are you Lara's daught-"

She got cut off by the gate disappearing. Hmm... how'd she know my maman? That's a dumb question. She probably knew my maman intimately. Whatever. I shrugged and walked through the grass. I can't believe I was able to enter the light realm. It reminded me of a mashup between Ancient Greek and Roman architecture.

I hope I can enter that realm again. It really puts the human realm to shame. Though, I do need to find out where I am, so I can head home. I pulled out my phone and saw I was in Canada. Well, that's far from home. I stopped and opened a portal to my dorm room.

Hailey must've heard the crackling of time being ripped open. I saw her stare at me through the portal. She looked relieved I was okay. I smiled and stepped through the oval. It closed around me in a popping sound. Hailey flung her arms around me and kept saying how she was so worried.

"What happened?" I quirked a brow at her.

"You were gone for two days!"

"No, I was only gone for like an hour tops. I got lost and then ran into an angel and then began to ask her so many questions. I think she was getting annoyed, but I wouldn't let her go-"

"Angel?" Hailey interrupted.

"Yea, angel. I kept talking to her as she tried to shake me. She wanted me to leave since I wasn't from there and began to-"

"An angel you said?"

"Yes! Keep up, Hails. Anyways, she was telling me how her mate cheated on her and-"

"Were you by any chance in the light realm?" She questioned to which I nodded. "Cool! Where's the entrance?"

"Canada, but it disappeared." She groaned. "Ya and I think she knows my maman." Hailey rose a brow. "I asked her name and she said Kennedy, so I don't know-"

"Kennedy?!" Has this girl not been paying attention to anything I said?! "That's the light angel princess! You know... the hybrid that started this war."

"Really?! That's her!" Hailey nodded. "Well, she doesn't have the best personality." Hailey laughed. "She was quite rude and bitchy. She should really change her attitude if she doesn't want people to kill her." I took out my phone. "I should probably tell my parents I'm alright." Hailey nodded and allowed me to call my moms. 

So Z and Ken have officially met!! I find Z's first impression of Ken to be funny since Ken had the complete opposite first impression of Z.
