Chapter 12 - Ch12- The one and only

(Alora opened her eyelids as the sunlight shone on her, the window beside her was open...She noticed a odd-looking necklace on her neck, then she recalled what happened yesterday about her running away from the stares and a book glowing...wait a minute, The book!)

Alora: There's no book here, guess I was dreaming..

???: You didn't dream, I am real!

Alora: Who are you?

???: The necklace on your neck!

Alora: That's your identity?

???: Nope, but I dont know who I am..

Alora: What's your name?

???: I don't have a name..

Alora: What about "Hera"? Cause you're my hero!

???: You didn't ask why I don't have a name?

Alora: Who cares? Well, I am not curious..

???: The chosen one is too kind..How about I grant you a wish?

Alora: Make me look "normal" so everyone accepts me!

???: Sure!

(Then a light inside Alora shone revealing a beautiful white light that would just disperse with a touch and then Alora felt something odd. She ran outside to a nearby puddle and saw her reflection, brown hair and midnight-blue eyes? She looked magnificent! Oh, how she loved her new look.)

Alora: Can I trust you?

Hera: Of course, I love how you looked before and now as well.

Alora: The society doesn't think so but I am glad you do..It doesn't matter anyways.

Hera: Is something bothering you, the chosen one?

Alora: I would prefer it if you call me, "Alora" instead.

Hera: But you are the chosen one!

Alora: My name's Alora not "the chosen one".

Hera: Alora, Is there something on your mind?

Alora: Hera, please help me, I don't know what to do..I have nowhere to go, no one to rely on..the truth is I ran away from home.

Hera: I heard that there is a academy test today and whoever scores the top.10 ranks will have free dorms!

Alora: My god, that's perfect, What's the name of the academy?

Hera: "Crimson Haven magic academy".

Alora: No way, that's the top.1 magic academy in the whole world..I won't be accepted..

Hera: Then what else?

Alora: Nah! You know what? We never know untill we try, that's what mother always taught me!

Hera: You have a mother? Then why did you run away from home?

Alora: Cause she died yesterday and..

Hera: It's fine, no need to dwell on that topic, it's a coincedence that it's today, god really favours you.

Alora: But why did it have to be that academy?

Hera: Atleast it's something, think about it..free dorms and food..that only prestigious noble families can afford..

Alora: That's only when you get selected!

Hera: And why won't you get selected?

Alora: I know nothing of magic! Mom told that I didn't awaken my powers yet.

Hera: Nonsense orelse how did you wake me?

Alora: Wake you?

Hera: Yeah, only magic geniuses can awaken a guardian's power and make a contract with a guardian.

Alora: Oh..Wait, you're a guardian?

Hera: Yeah, well no..not really.

Alora: Oh okay..but that's so not okay, me, a commoner attending the top.1 magic academy's entrance test!

Hera: They don't care about all that, you just have to show some skills.

Alora: That's exactly what's the problem!! I don't know any skills.

Hera: But you have them so just try them out.

Alora: Are you sure?

Hera: Don't you trust me?

Alora: I do so..I'll do it!

Hera: That's the spirit! Let's go, since you've got no money as I see, let me teleport you there.

Alora: I didn't know light can teleport?

Hera: Not teleport, but running as fast as the speed of light. Hold on, how do you know I have light element?

Alora: Isn't it obvious? I mean come on! What shone so bright when we made a contract?

Hera: Light? Okay I guess.

(Hera " teleported" Alora to the entrance test training grounds to take the test.. Can Alora let go of her fears and set for a awaiting journey ahead?)
