HOPE

“Girls hurry…. get in the car….. we need to leave now “mom said as we racing down the flight of stair.

I don’t Know where we are going, but I get the sense that we are running again . This has been our lives since we turned sixteen …. Turning sixteen meant coming into my powers, and since am not the only child it meant three sixteen year olds with powers they can’t control.Our parents don’t have powers like we do but they never judged us, looked at us like we’re freaks or even tried to turn us in to anything we weren’t…. we even practice in the basement , we need to understand our powers so that we don’t hurt people or ourselves…. We don’t practice openly or use them openly, people cant know we have powers , it’s one of dads rules…. And we have been careful for months. Running like these meant the people who have been after us for two years have found us again.

We got in the car and dad hit the road, everyone in the car was on edge and we were all hopping we could get through this… Its was winter the fog in the morning makes it hard to see what’s on the road or I couldn’t even see just outside the window, with the speed my dad is driving with it will be impossible to see anything on the road or neither will he be able to stop in time..as if my thoughts manifested in to reality, what I think is an animal appeared in the middle of the road, my dad hit the brakes but the brake didn’t seem to be working, he turned the car to the left and we went of the road and kept going down the bumpy gravel… all of us screaming the car rolled over twice our car sit belts had both jammed the day before, due to the cold….we knew chances of making it we pretty slim. They say your life flashes before your eyes, the things you got to do and the things you didnt get to do.. I was thinking about the things I didnt get to do. How little I lived mylife always hiding, blending in so one will notice me, no friends… my sisters dont count! Never even kissed a guy or had a boyfriend, mylife sucked.

“Hope, Holly and Honey hold on!” I could hear dad yelling.

Everyone was just plain screaming mostly in terror. The car slammed into something, stopping us on our tracks…. . My head and ears rang for a while and then there was silence. I’d hit my head that’s for sure, and I could feel sharp pains in my chest , hand and leg. Darkness threatened to pull me under, but I had to be sure my family was okay. Through the haze, I could have sworn I saw movement or a shadow moved . But i couldn't focus on the figure it could be anything at this point…. But the pain was too much, terrified sob came out of me…. I couldn’t hear my sisters or dad. I had to fight trough the pain to be able see anything around me, I had to believe I was strong enough to save my family trough this. I wanted to call out their names but consciousness was slipping in, and I knew if I give in I will pass out.

Than I wouldn’t know how my family is…… With everything in me I managed to open my eyes, As I came to, I realized I was hanging halfway out of the window of the car door…I tried to move , but I couldn’t move my leg it was caught by something in the car and was putting pressure on it. A warm, sensation trickled in one of my legs and as much as I didn’t want to, I looked down. A scream ripped from me when I saw a my leg was in two different directions and there was a lot of blood coming out of my stomach, I was panicking and needed a distraction from my apparent demise, and I decided to look at my mom and saw a thick tree branch going through from the tree to her belly.

Oh . No. No. No. I was flat out panicking......My mom is going to die and I cant see a sign of my sisters and dad and I’ll die too if we don’t get help.… I wanted to call out for them but consciousness slipped my grasp, a lot of time passed while I hinging there slipping in and out of consciousness…. Footsteps caught my attention, and I looked down to see someone approaching us. Oh good help…. My vision was blurry, but as the footsteps drew nearer I saw that it was men in uniform.

I don’t remember much but when hands touched me the shot of intense pain dragged me completely into the blissful darkness of unconsciousness.

Holly

I heard voices round me and I didn’t recognize any of them, I tried to recall what happened and why am I hearing voices…

“ I asked to you to get them to the academy not kill them “ said a voice so deep its carried pride and authority in it.

“ I did my best to try and get them without causing harm, but they kept running from us, I even sent letters inviting them to attend the academy on a full scholarship for all three girls that covers everything even gave them money for their monthly expenses…. But no they kept running, we were running out of time… you know I had to do something to bring them in. Next week is their birthday in order for us to remain in power they have to be in the academy and be unable to take their rightful place" said a much charming voice.

“ are you even sure its them, I think the rightful heirs died with their parent in the palace fire 18 years ago… I don’t trust that psychic, he is just sending us on a wild goose chase to make sure our son won’t be able to take the throne “ said a women with so much venom that I felt nothing but coldness from her.

One thing was for sure this people had evil intentions and they are the people we’ve been running from for two years…. I should remain asleep, where the hell was I? My head hurts but nothing came to me. I slipped back in to sleep which I feels like forever.

I came back again seeing the light so far, going towards the light was my only solution.. my body was tired and aching… I still needed more rest because of the pain, but my body I needed to wake up… to see where I am, where my family is? and who those people were?. Wait… why was I sleeping? How long have I been sleeping? Shit why can’t I remember what happened? Why can’t I hear any familiar voice?

Let’s start slow I am Holly song, I have two sisters honey and hope, we’re triplets. My dad is John Song, and my mom is Hilary Matthews Song. Good… so far so good. Let’s see what else we moved a lot since we turned 16 because of our powers and we have been running when we met with an accident. God no! My head hurts as I try to remember more about the accident. Which caused me to slip back to sleep.

I wake up to voices again… “ it’s been a week and neither one of them is showing signs of waking up, and they need to be at the awakening in 11 days. How are we going to this? Said that cold women.

“ it’s okay my love, breathe…. Good, I know we didn’t want to take them without their knowledge but now we have no choice once we are at the academy, they will heal. The magic of the academy will heal them and if really they are the rightful heirs to the throne, the will heal in less than three hour of their arrival which will give us a lot of insight of how strong they may be… and the awakening will give us the throne once and for all. So you see my love all is not lost, but we need to get rid of that moron you call an assistant. We wanted this girls in good health and well to take part in the awakening, if the council hears they are injured they might just postpone the awakening until they recover, which will give them a chance to survive” this voice was new and it was scaring the hair off of me.

“ so my love why don’t we live them here until they have only a day left to the awakening?” Said the vicious women.

“ well my love the council will not like that...in order to stand a chance to take the throne without the council breathing down our necks they have to be at the academy at least a week, but the council must never know they were injured and that the academy magic was healing them the entire week they were there” replayed the man.
