Oh I hope one day I'll make it out of here

Even if it takes all night or hundred years

Need a place to hide but I can't find one near

Wanna feel alive, outside I can fight my fears

Training sucks, Roman is pushing me hard, he wants me to be strong and fierce just like him but I don't think I can ever be as good as him.

Roman and I are laying down on the grass near the lake, we are both looking at sky and breathing normally even though we just finished our training session, and I still suck at it.

"What do you think is in the sky?" I ask curiously, I'm not much of a thinker but whenever I sit and stare at something I start to wonder what made the thing up.

"I don't know... Clouds maybe," He answers nonchalantly.

I sigh and close my eyes and feel the environment around me. "I know that you are just trying to help me control my powers and I haven't been able to reach the climax, but I think you are hard on me because you are preparing me for something," I say quiet. Not sure why I pointed it out because I clearly wasn't thinking about it.

He sits upright and wait for me to join him. "Something is coming, a war that is bigger than the both of us, a war bigger than any of us. I need to prepare you for it because I might not be there," He whispers sadly and closes his eyes.

I want to ask why he is in pain but I can't because he is Roman, he is insufferable.

I don't understand a word he just said but if the war he means is our upcoming mid term, sure I should prepare because I won't be able to copy his book.

"Don't let anyone tell you or convince you that you are not worthy," He shifts his position, turning his body to face me. "A time will come when you will doubt yourself but I want you to remember you are different, you are different from all of us and that is exactly what makes you worthy," He takes my hand in his and stares at me as he says it.

I raise an eyebrow because everything he is saying doesn't make sense to me. "Huh?"

He smiles sadly. "When the time comes just trust and follow your heart."

I remember that day like it was yesterday, too bad yesterday was the he died saving me. I hated Roman because of what he did to me at the beginning, going hot and cold at me all the damn time, one minutes we were kissing and then he'll snaps and bolt.

For the short moment I learned that he was involved in my parent's decision, I blamed him. I hated him with passion but then he explained and my mind opened to listen and forgive him.

The moment he confessed his feelings for me, I was confused with my own feelings for him, I love Roman in a very unique way and he'll always have a place in my heart.

I still can't shake this new feeling of losing someone. First, my parents and now Roman. How many more have to die?

I don't know what happened or how I got here. One minute I was crushing that guy's heart literally and figuratively, and next I saw darkness. I woke up with a killer headache and of course am in chains.

Am not even sure if the rest are still alive. I am so angry that am afraid my chest is going to vaporized, but my hands are decorated in power damping chains and an inhibitor collars around my neck.

The wall behind me is really making my back uncomfortable. I know it's useless to break myself out of this chain because I'll only be hurting myself.

My head snaps up at the sound of door opening. Theo steps in with a stupid smug expression on his face, I don't care about him, I only care about the fact that my friends are in chains and their faces are bloody.

I try to stand up but the chains pulls me back, I wince in pain while Theo laughs. "How many times are we going to go over this Princess?"

I ignore him and watch as his men take my friends to the wall except...

"Why is Jessica not moving and what the hell did you do to Damien?!" I can't even recognize the horror in my own voice.

Jessica isn't moving, her face is drained of blood, her eyes are opened but it's all white, she is just standing still, and Damien is having a hard time breathing. Nate's face is bruised and bloody but Dean's face is untouched.

"I didn't do anything to the sage, this is all her doing, I fucked up your boyfriend because he was being mouthy," He says in confident.

I try to jerk my hand out these stupid chains, if only I can. I stop trying when I notice something strange. Nate and Dean aren't moving either but they are not like Jessica, they have the inhibitor collar on and standing still and staring to space.

"What did you do to them?" I try to keep my composure but am at peak of it.

He shrugs and smirks. Just get me out of this collar and let me show what I can fucking do. "Me? I didn't do anything," He walks closer to Jessica and step behind her. "She did," He announces as he tucks the loose strands of hair behind her ear. "The whole ghost act is all her, maybe I should try cut her out it," He says.

"You know? I have always wanted to experiment on her and see how far her powers can go, I know she can ghost herself but taking others with her is pretty impressive, let me see if she can maintain it with a knife to her neck," He smirks.

If he was trying to struck a nerve in me, he just did. "Touch her Theo," I try to stand but again it's pointless as my back hit the cemented wall. "I fucking dare you!" I snarl.

He chuckles and removes his knife from his pocket. "I remember someone telling me the exact same thing years ago, guess what I-" I cut him off and beat him to it.

"Got a scar on your face," I smirk in satisfaction when I notice the expression on his face. "Don't mess with me Theo, I'm not my father and believe me when I say I won't miss, I never do."

"Let's see how you plan on stopping me," He threatens as he places his designated knife on her neck and...
