  *********Adriana’s point of view********

  As I was packing my bags I hardly could stop crying. Seen all those photographs of my self since I was a toddler with my mom and dad, take me way back in time. I took several photos to take with me. And I was thinking for hours and came to a decision of calling and telling the guardians to come tonight itself. Because when more time pass more we all get hurt. So I called and informed them and they said they will come in few hours and I got dressed and got my bags and items packed and went to my parent’s room where they were so upset and talking.

  “Adriana… where are you going to go? Why are you dressed?” dad asked

  “Well… I’m leaving tonight!”

  “Adri… what did you say?

  “Yes mom I am. I asked them to come tonight. I can’t see you’ll cry anymore. More I’m here more you’ll cry and worry. As soon as these things finishes less stress you people will have” I explained

  “Are you insane? We are finding ways to keep you for some more days but you think if you just leave tonight it will work?” dad shouted

  “Dad I’m only staying for few more hours just love me and care for me.” I said and went and hugged my parents crying. We were crying hugging each other for few minutes and talked about several stuff and my mom cooked me my favorite food lasagna and a tasty desert. We had our last dinner together laughing and smiling but all three of us dying inside our hearts

  I have never gone through a situation so tough and hard in my entire life before and I know I will never go through something like this ever again.

  Few hours passed by and while we were talking in the sofa we heard our door bell ringing. That’s the door bell of my reborn.

  None of us felt like checking the door but dad finally stood up and went for the door

  “Adriana is for you “dad said

  I was not on earth. I didn’t know what to do. My felt like my nerves weren’t passing any impulses and my heart wasn’t beating. I started to shiver. And my legs didn’t work for me to walk to the door with my luggage’s and holding my moms hand tight. And I slowly walked to the door and dad was standing near it talking with two people. I hardly saw because I as so dark.

  “ADRIANAAAAAAAAA…….” Suddenly Sammy and Alex came running with tears in their eyes crying and hugged me so tight and dint let me go

  “Oh my goodness its you guys...” that’s all I could say because I chocked every word I tried to split out because I really thought it was the guardians.

  “We came to see you… why is this Adrianna? Why did you didn’t answer our call or even talk to us when you came to the university? Why?” Alex was shouting at me while crying and still hugging me

  “I know…. Why Adri? Why? We love you this much and we been your best friends how could you be this way to us?” Sammy added

  “Please forgive me… I couldn’t face you guys. You guys dont know the pressure I have right now.” I started crying so loud

  “We do know Adri … that’s why we came just to see you. Our chem. Professor didn’t let us come any sooner. “Sammy said.

  We couldn’t talk another word instead we saw a vehicle appeared from no-where and parked right in front of us. We couldn’t properly see who it was because the headlight of the vehicle was blinding us.

  “Miss. Adriana jasmine Rachael smith” I hard a voice of a young guy stepping out of the vehicle saying my name. But I couldn’t recognize what sort of look he had because it was dark

  As he got closer all I saw was two men wearing black woolen jacket even with their head covered with hoods. They looked so scary. And since it was dark too the scenery got even spooky

  “Yes I am Adriana…. Bla bla bla. Who are you'll?” I questioned

  “Well lady we are guardians from the school of magic and we are here to take you “a guardian said

  “What? “ I knew I called and ask them to come to take me tonight but I didn’t know how to face this moment since the first time I freaked out hearing the door bell thinking it was them but it wasn’t so now I not at all prepared and this is unexpected.

  “Cant she have few more hours?” Sammy questioned

  “Oh no ma’am please can we have your bags we have to hurry up because even we don’t belong here” they explained

  Oh god they don’t want me to stay anymore. I felt like I did a big mistake asking them to come tonight because I didn’t expect Sammy and Alex to come. Well now no turning back so I went inside and brought my luggage’s and gave them while my mom and dad were crying hugging each other near the door speechless. My friends were crying too and they were helping me.

  All the memories are just goner fade away after another moment... my life’s goner change and turn around and I will have to write a whole new chapter in my life. I couldn’t look at anyone’s eyes because I was struggling so hard to not to lose control and cry because if I do so it will surely hurt my parents more

  Guardians stood outside till I finally say goodbye t everyone. I ran and jumped on to my parents and hugged them so tight to feel their warmth for the last time.

  “Mom…. Dad…. Why did this happen to me? “I stammered crying

  “Baby we love you... you will be so fine darling... where ever you go... me and mom are always watching you and we are always be there in your heart..” dad mummer

  “Yes sweetheart… your goner be fine… this is for your best… don’t forget us... things will be so different or may be hard at first but you’ll get used to it..” mom explained

  “We won’t spend a millisecond not thinking about you and blessing you. You will win this world with who you are goner be. Your one lucky girl… keep that in mind sweetie... we are with you… now don’t cry...” dad said wiping my tears

  Then I kissed them on their cheeks and moved few steps back and my girlfriends came crying and hugged me.

  “Don’t worry you are goner be a wonderful magician...” Sammy added

  “We will never forget you and we will always take care of your parents trust us.” Alex said.

  “We love you Adri… we do… we will miss you sooo much. Don’t be sad keep doing the right thing…” Sammy noted

  “I love you too I will miss you guys like hell… please do what I said… don’t let my parents suffer … I trust you’ll” I slowly moved away from their warmth and ran to the vehicle and closed the door and cried and cried and didn’t look back...

  The guardians took off and I only looked back from far. And all I saw was of my loved once hugging each other and crying... I couldn’t bare this. It was a terrible feeling. I kept my head down on to my lap and cried till I felt a little better.

  “Miss. Smith.” one guardian spoke to me.

  “Adriana... just call me that” I said

  “Ok Adriana. Don’t worry life could be hard at times but this is goner change you big time” he looked at me and pulled down the hood of the jacket he was covering his head. He had gorgeous pale green eye which I hardly could stare at because they were so tempting.

  “Ya I know… who are you btw?” I questioned

  “I’m Liam... and this is Roy and the other guardian who was driving pulled his hood of the jacket down too.

  “Oh... nice to meet you’ll. I’m just so upset... I just need this time for my self” I requested

  “Ya sure ma’am its all yours” he added

  We were going in very unusual roads for nearly 6 hours now. I didn’t feel any hunger because the pain in my heart was all over my body...

  While we were going we entered to a road through a dark scary forest. The light was fading, creating new shadows and dark patches. And then the vehicle stopped. And Liam got down first and came to open my door.

  Branches creaking and making me feel more and more scared, feet was shivering as I got down from the vehicle, squirrels chattering, leaves rustling, wind whistling around trunks disturbing the leaves, I was already half way frozen to death..

  When I got down fro the vehicle I
saw a humongous house and I started shivering, I felt like ice

  Had replaced my spine. The cold air covered the entire body. The sweater and my top could help me to get away from the deathly cold.

  Red roses grown wildly in near the big door by the gate. The moonlight brought a ghostly effect to the place. Cobwebs covered the corners of the doors, and the doorsteps were cracked and grass and flowers were popping g out of them. The guardians were leading me to where ever I am supposed to go.

  Tiny black spiders threading towards their prey. The house is fit for the kings and queens. I was scared not knowing why they brought me to a place like this which was so scary and looked haunted; when they were suppose to bring me to a university of magic.

  Then suddenly the door open with a creepy sound making me sweat all over and my heart skip a beet. Dust swirled around the room as I made my way inside. I was pushed to enter into this strange place. It was hall with several small doors and an elevator in one corner and Windows were covered with dirt, the calm moonlight struggled to make into the dark room through some holes near the windows ad from the roof.

  Then Liam took my hand and took me near to the elevator. And they pressed some weird no and said a magical spell which made the lift stop by some place that I couldn’t figure out. Then there were more stares each step intensified the moaning and creaking as if the steps could collapse at any moment. I turned to the right, and met my final destination. The door did not give way easier, a forceful push was needed so I waited till Liam and Roy help me with it but when I turned around non of them were their . I was alone in a spooky place…

  Some how I tried hard not to freak out so I pushed the door open. As soon as the door opened all I saw was a wonderland... Shopping malls fountains... People doing extraordinary stuff and children playing around and so many wonderful buildings… wow it looked so beautiful and took my breach away... It was a whole different world….

  “Hello Adriana… its good to see you AGAIN” I heard a guy’s voice...

  And I turned around... and to see an old man with frightening eyes watched my every move. I couldn’t figure out exactly who he was because he was wearing a hat and looking down. His face had mostly been hidden by his glasses, but I could almost feel his cold breath even though he was standing further away. When I glanced back, he smiled at me. His wrinkles letting me see his every expression

  His smile reeked of wickedness, and something inside had told me he held many secrets behind his smile. His cold eyes where almost gray, and kept watching me. Being eighteen, I just tried my best to fake a smile, but inside, I was terrified of this old man. Then he came closer and closer and it made me fell like he is so familiar.

  At one point he took of his hat and smiled at me. Then suddenly my eyes wide open when I figured out who he is. Oh my goodness it’s….
