I fly with Nate out of school and home as fast as I can. "How long has mother been home?" I ask. "An hour and everything is already chaos, she was asking for you so I came as fast as I could o get you," says Nate. "I haven't seen her in years, well really ever so why is she here now? Oh, gods is it all true? About you know everything," I say to Nate. "Yes, now come on! We need to go faster or else," says Nathan. "On it," I say flying faster.
By the time we're at the DA Iexhaustedted but we sprint to the entrance anyway hearing the yelling. "Kara darling where have you been? I've been waiting for you," says my mother. She looks thirty-five and like a regular mom with her long red hair and red eyes. I hate how alike we look. "Mother, it's nice to finally meet you," I say guarded. "You've grown so much, darling I can't imagine how lonely it was for you all these years," she says. "It wasn't lonely, I had father and Nathan with me since I was twelve, that was three years ago. And before that, I did just fine with my human parents," I say. "I know Kara, but now you have me," says mother smiling at me. Everyone in the DA is watching us in fear. They're waiting for the bomb to go off, and for me to die. No one has ever said anything bad to my mother. EVER. "I've never even met you, mother, where have you been all my life? I've only heard stories of you," I say spitting out the word mother like it's acid. "I was busy darling you must understand that besides I have important work," says my mother. "What work? Are you so busy you haven't been able to see me ever?" I say glaring. "Now now you two, you have plenty to talk about tomorrow that must have been a long flight Kara you should get to the dorms, the rest of you as well. We will talk in the morning," says my father defusing the room. "Wonderful, night father," I say giving him a hug and going to my dorm. It was out of character to hug him but I don't really care, with mother around everything has changed.
At breakfast, everyone sits away from my mother so that she has enough room not to touch anyone. Everyone is tense and I know why with my mother everyone it tense. I remember the first time I learned about my mother. I was talking to my dad and I asked him about my mom. He told me that she is a god, like him. My father is the devil but the devil is a god with powers over evil. It's more than you would think. My mother is the god of carnage and blood, not war just blood. Dad, on the other hand, is in charge of balance there are good and bad without balance everything gets crazy. Nathan told me that my mother is always influencing conflict to make carnage and blood. "Kara what did you get on your test?" asks Nathan trying to defuse the tension between me and my mother. "I don't know but I it better be good," I say. "I'm sure you did great Kara," says my dad. "Can I learn magic now?" I ask hopefully. "You haven't learned how to use magic yet?" asks my mom. "I can do plenty without magic but yeah magic would be nice," I say defensively. My dad shakes his head I know he thinks this was a bad idea. "I need to... tell my friends I'm ok, they'll be worried," I say getting up, Nathan comes with me to get out of the room, the other kids take it as a hint to leave and we all do. "Is it just me or..." Nathan trails off. "Yeah there is a lot of tension between them," I say. When we get to my dorm I call Bullet. "Hey Bullet sorry for leaving like that but my mother is here and well she's not someone I want to make mad," I say when she picks up. "Why what's so bad about your mom?" Asks Bullet confused. "Well, she is the goddess of blood gore and carnage. Sooo not the best goddess to have as your mom. Plus I've never met her before today, I've just heard the stories, and they're not good," I say. "I could come over to the DA if you want," says Bullet. "No, mother might kill you or make you do something bad, you can't. I'll be back soon," I say hanging up. "How long is mother going to stay?" I ask Nathan. "A few days at most she never stays in one place for long," says Nathan. "Why does she have to come now? I was having a nice time in LA and everything, why does she show up in my life now?" I say aloud. "I don't know but I think that your dad want's to talk to you," says Nathan right as the PA system goes off. "Kara come to my office please," he says. When I get to my office my father is there but my mother is nowhere to be seen, a good thing. "What is it, dad? Is mother leaving?" I ask. "No, she was talking to me and she said that you should stay with her for a while," says dad. "What?! No, I'm leaving to go back to LA as soon as she leaves, I'm not going with her," I say. "You must Kara, I can only teach you so much. I knew this day would come, but I thought I had more time," he says. "I'm not leaving you, dad, I'm not leaving for her, I'm your daughter, not hers. She can't take me, I won't let her," I say balling my fists. "It's not your choice Kara I can't keep you here you must go with her. Now that she's found you she is not going to let you get away, she wants you to be just like her," says my dad. "I'll never be like her, I'm better than her, I refuse to go with her. She can't make me," I say. "I know Kara, I know you don't want to go, but you must," says my dad. My mother walks in smiling. "Go and pack Kara we should be leaving soon," I glare at her and my dad as I walk out. I do pack my things. "How did it go?" asks Nathan when he comes in. "I'm meant to go with my mother somewhere for who knows how long," I growl. "I'm guessing you are not going to go with her," says Nathan. "Right on, want to come with me? I'm not leaving the DA or my friends," I say. "I'll go I need to see the outside world anyway," says Nathan stretching.
In twenty minutes we're flying back to LA at full speed. We fly for a few miles but then take the train so no one sees two teens flying through the sky. "Are we going back to everyone else?" says Nathan. "Sure, I don't see why not," I say shrugging. "You do realize that because of this you just got your mom against us and bad thing could happen, emphasize on the 'bad'" says Nathan. "I know, but I can't stand her and I haven't even known here for 24 hours," I say sighing. I fall asleep a few seconds later for exhaustion.
