Kori's POV
__________
I had eventually sat with Rachel during our break time, she had something important to tell me. We may not be so compatible and it may seem like there is no possibility of being friends, but she's the closest friend I've got. I may have been nice and friendly to everyone but she was the one who showed me around the school and the city. I hope we stay friends forever, looking over to Rachel,I smiled."What was it that you wanted to talk about?",I question her."Don't you think Drei is a bit off, as in like he can't be trusted",Rachel spoke softly."Well what makes you say that Rachel?",I question again."Well I-I d-don't know how exactly to put it but there is something off about him",Rachel looked over to Drei and back to me."Are you saying you don't like people who are off?"I question sadly, see I may seem like I don't have secrets but I do, everytime I look into the night sky I see these lights. It's like something is calling me, during these years I have been hiding something from my friends and I'm sure I'll be able to tell them soon, that's if they accept me."No, no I'm not against odds or anything, it's just that there is something about him that makes him seem like an enemy and a friend at the same time",She spoke as she grasped a book tightly, a particular book I've never seen her read. I've never seen that book in any of her shelves when I come over. Taking a look I touch the cover, Rachel immediately pushing my hand slightly away. I look at her with concern."Rachel....are you okay?"I ask, looking at her expression, she said nothing. From there I knew, there is something wrong, she's hiding something and I'm sure she feels like she's alone, but she's not, not anymore. I put my hand on her shoulder,"Rachel please tell me what's going on with you, I'm sure what ever it is you'll be able to get through it."I say giving her some courage and someone to lean on."If I'm going to be honest with you, it can't be here",she spoke as she looked around. I immediately understood what she meant by that, honestly we may never know who can hear us and eventually use it against us. I understood why Rachel was almost always alone, people are never what they seem they're like a coin, they have two sides to each other, well depending on who it is your with. They can either be an enemy or a friend."I'll tell you later tonight if that's okay with you Kori",I hear Rachel as I instantly smile, most times Rachel doesn't tell me anything, I'm glad she'll tell me what's going on with her now.

4:50 PM
After school Rachel walked with Kori and Robin."Are you sure about coming Rachel, you really didn't seem fond of Drei",Robin spoke."I'll be fine,don't worry about it",Rachel reassured to him."Tonight will be so much fun, I can't wait for this joyous event, Drei said he picked a good spot for us right?" Kori questioned with joy in her eyes. Robin nodded his head,"Apparently he picked the best spot in this city", he spoke as he walkes ahead of them.
Later that evening they met up with the one and only dark haired male. Drei had texted Robin the location, the place was quite a view, something they've never noticed in the city."This is amazing, I've never seen such a beautiful sunset!",Kori cheered as she looked at the view in front of her eyes. A cherry tree with a swing stood next to the two boys and two girls. A nice high altitude as the sunset shined the sky in nice colors. The sky was orange,red ,blue, and purple, the colors each fading towards one another as clouds were a nice shade of the grapefruit.
"I gotta admit, this is awesome",Robin states as he looks at Drei."How did you find this place?"Robin questioned."Well I somehow stumbled upon this place actually"Drei spoke as he smiled at the sunset.

11:30 PM
"Does the illuminating moon happen this late!?"Kori questioned to Drei. Drei only shook his head and laughed it off,"Look up",he spoke out as the four teens looked at the dark blue sky.
The moon shone a blue hue, slowly turning to bright purple.
The wind blew immediately, the trees blossoms blowing away as the black ring shone near the moon.
Soon enough, a storm began to happen ahead. Lightning bolts of red color were seen, immediately something flashed before the four teens eyes. Rachel immediately took hold of Kori and Robin's hand and dragged them away from the dark haired male."What the hell was that!?"She questioned angrily at Drei. Drei only turned to face her, for Rachel and her friends to see the same color in his eyes.
He didn't respond to her, he didn't look at Rachel, he was looking for something or rather someone else. The color never leaving his eyes.
Soon enough, a ring surrounded him. With a nice hue of blue, a shadow had soon appeared in front of them. The same shadow Rachel had seen in his eyes earlier.
She was now tempted as she looked into the shadows eyes, the shadow's hand was out for her taking. Rachel looked deeply into the eyes of the shadow. Reaching her hand towards it, and soon a single sound of a drop was heard.
Rachel's POV
_____________
"Where am I", Looking at my surroundings was emptiness, looking to the ground, I was walking on water?, I could see my reflection.
"Go run!?Get away from him", a voice of in the distance, I could hear it.
Coming back to my senses, looking towards my friends, they layed unconscious as the dark haired male was coughing up blood. Only a new person appeared in my eyes. A female, similar to Drei. She looked at me and back at him and kicked him across, his back hitting tree trunk of the cherry tree. He wasn't. . . . . .doing anything about it. He only layed there as the girl watched him bleed.
"You should leave," The female spoke,"Take your friends away and forget about what you saw",she spoke bitterly.
"I'm not leaving, not until I get my answers. . . . Mare",I spoke out to her, realizing what I said, I hear a small laugh."You finally get to have your questions answered", I look at Drei as he looks at me. Pain in his eyes as he held his side, he was bleeding badly he was stabbed. My only actions was rushing to him and help him up.
"How could she know such a thing like that!?" The girl spoke,now that I realize it, Mare, I called her Mare.
"Answer me!?" She spoke as she threw a dagger at Drei.
"Stop!You're hurting him",I yell, only without thinking she fell to the ground at the sudden wave of my scream.
Staring at me with an intimidating look, I realized what she was looking at, the gem near my crown, it had shown again.
"H-how could that be?" She spoke as she stood up."You're-""The Raven",Drei spoke as he struggled to stay up."Why did you bring her in this!?This is between me and you and no one else Drei!"
I look at Drei and back at the female,"Who are you?"I questioned."Her name is Marina, Marina Mare",I look over at Drei as he spoke taking out the dagger that stabbed his side.
"And as to our connection, it doesn't simply matter",Marina spoke,she looked in disappointment just by saying that. She spoke to him bitterly and she didnt even look at him.
"I recommended you stop seeing this bastard, he's a traitor, a deceiver, a lier."She spoke as if venom were to spit from her tongue. She took out another blade, she was going to kill him at this rate. She pointed the dagger towards him.
Drei's POV
__________
It all happened suddenly, I knew Marina would try to kill me eventually and get her bloody revenge, only to expect no impact. I looked up.....
But looking up was a bad decision, Rachel had taken the hit. . . .
She was pierced by the blade of my own sister, she dropped to her knees and clutched her side.
"I'll come to kill you another time Drei"
"I'll find you once you're alone"
"I'll make sure to give you a proper burial, my dearest brother", and soon she was gone.
Darkness clouded my vision, I was in the bitter darkness.
"DREI!?"
