The Assassins Daughter

{Hazel's POV}

Ahh, my head hurts like hell, I opened my eyes trying to adjust to the light in the room. Everywhere in this room was white and sparkling. Where the fvck am I, it only took seconds for me to realize I was at the VIP section of a hospitals ward. How in the world did I get here. I tried lifting my hands but couldn't, I tried screaming but no sound came.

Heck, I was tired from struggling to wake up, I was tired and sick of what I was feeling. All I knew right now was that I couldn't wake up. I wasn't asleep. My eyes were open, I could see virtually everything in this room but it felt like they were not open anyways.

No one was here with me, and suddenly darkness started creeping in. And then here I was on this dark, lonely streets alone. And then in split seconds, everywhere was filled with blood and bones, wounded and dead people. Woah, and right before my eyes they all vanished. Where did they go to?

I began walking down this lonely paths, I tried to stop myself from moving but it felt like I was being remoted. I felt a presence walking behind me and so I stopped and turned to find a cute little girl, with pure blue eyes and a brown curly hair. She was wearing a white gown that looked like it was submerged in blood, and when she peered at me, her eyes turned blood filled.

What the heck, Hazel, run. That was all I could hear at the back of my head right now but I couldn't lift my legs. Something was in control of me definitely. And just then, the little girl walked past me and said,

"Come with me, Hazel, there is a lot you need to know." Her voice were so comforting and yet instructing, so I did as she instructed.

But the next thing I spat out confused me,

"Am I dead?" I asked as she walked past me.

"No, Hazel, you're not dead but you're just about dying if you don't do just as I say." She scoffed. There's something really off with this

"Who are you?" I asked trying to know why in the world a kid would be out here instructing me.

"Geez, Hazel, do you always ask this many questions. She sighed, "My name is Ava and I am your protector."

Wait, what!!!! this kid is supposed to protect me, then I'm sure if danger arises we are both dying. I felt the urge to just scream at her and tell her to go back to her parents. Damn it.

Just then some men appeared from nowhere, wait were they coming for us,

Good, now we are in trouble, and I can do nothing about it anyways. The fact that my dad is an alpha and I'm not a wolf is what remained a mystery. But then, just when I thought I felt my bones shifting, nothing happened.

I looked at the little girl that was supposed to be my protector and she was already in a fighting position.

Well she is the protector, so she should be doing the fighting part while I'll have to run for life. Just as I took to my heels, I felt a pang of guilt, I can't leave her here all by herself.

"Run, Hazel." She screamed and God knows the delight that filled my heart when I heard those words. That was all I needed as I took to my heels, I ran as fast as my legs could carry me, but soon I suddenly felt exhausted. I tried as much as I could to keep running but I was drained of strength. I looked over my shoulders to see my protector fighting with those men, and one of them was directly coming for me. I had to hide, so I dived into a corner dark enough so no one could see me.

The man came to an abrupt halt and slowly began approaching me. I closed my eyes waiting for the worst that would come. Just then I heard a loud thud like as if it was a bang in the head. And when I opened my eyes, I saw Ava infront of me, glaring hardly at the man.

The man tried to fight with Ava, but shockingly Ava just laid her hands on his neck and looked deeply into his eyes.

Excuse me lady, you're supposed to be protecting me, not staring passionately at a monster. What the heck was she doing.

But then I noticed something, once she let go of the man, the man couldn't fight her anymore, instead he began fighting his other men.

Geez, how did she do that? She wasn't going to be able to do so unless she was a confessor. But I thought those were tales, hell, I've just seen the first confession ever.

With those men out of the way, she motioned to me to come over.

"Those men......why were they after us?" I asked out of anxiety.

"Hazel!!! Focus on the present." I could see her eyes shooting daggers at me but then no, I'm not giving up.

"You're my protector, right?" I asked trying to keep my head together.

"I've said that before, Hazel." She scoffed, she was probably sick of me asking her this questions.

"Why did you choose to be my protector?" I asked again.

"You think if it was up to me I would have chosen you, nah, you're such a pain in the neck."

"So who asked you to be my protector?" I asked yet again. I really wanted to understand what was going on.

"Hazel!!! Focus." she ordered with an angry tone

"That man....when you touched him..what did you do to him?"

"You want to know what I did to that man, ask me one more question."

And with that she started moving as I trailed her behind.

We kept on walking until we got to a tower that looked like it has been abandoned for centuries. Ava and I then walked in passing through series of gates till we were inside the tower house. All I could see were books and books and books. This certainly looked like a library or more of a museum. I stayed close to Ava, when we heard a hoist laugh from a corner of the tower. I turned to see where the sound was coming from, and suddenly there appeared a throne and a woman was on it. She looked as beautiful as a mermaid but yet fierce as a Dragon.

"Who's that, Ava." I said with fear and perspiration all over my body. I felt goosebumps on my skin as I held Ava with all my might like my life depended on her.

"Shhhh, Hazel... She is called AKIRA mother of the seven stones." She answered in low tones almost as if she was whispering.

"Seven stones?? What the hell is that?" I queried

"Hazel.. focus, you can't ask that many questions in here." She answered with a furrowed brow.

"Hazel, mother." Ava said as she bowed and shifted to a corner making me stand directly to the woman.

"Good, Ava, a job well done." She complimented as she smiled at Ava.

"They are still after her, mother." Ava said with a face filled with worry.

"Who?." Akira asked.

You could see the anger in her expression, it was almost as if there were demons in her eyes. She looked more offended and defiled than angry, and i began to wonder why all this had to involve me somehow.

All i ever wanted was to live a peaceful and calm life with my friends, but it felt like that chance would never come. It was always from one trouble to the other.
