I wasn’t sure how to act in my situation so I watched as she stared out in to the open and then she looked at the door, always the door. I walked over to her and sat down. “Why don’t you speak it’s like I’m in a house alone” I whispered and she swiftly turned her head to look at me. “Please” then like I was crazy enough doing this I rolled my eyes and laughed “I’m silly”. I put my hands on the table and dug my head in my arms. I sat there for minutes until, lightly I felt her place one of her cool white hands over mine. I looked up to see her giving me a sad look. That was the first contact she had made in as I know four years to me.

 

After I dropped her off at school, the same one in which I was trying to find a different school for her I decided to go back home and search her room for anything that could give away that she was communicating. I stood at her door way were there was a bed in the far left corner of her room and a black dresser settled closely to the bed. I strolled in looking under her bed. Well I did find a book. I reached under the bed, snatching it. It wasn’t a book, I slowly opened it. It was a sketch book she could draw; I looked through each of the pages wondering where she got her brilliant ideas. They were like nothing I’ve ever seen; Athena was an Artist, a very talented one, especially for a fifteen year old.

I stood up going to the closet but I only finding it empty, I sighed closing the closet and started to walk when one last thing caught my eye. I turned going back in the room. Sure enough behind the door I found a crumbled up piece of paper. I bent down opening the paper, but only squinted at the words once again they were another language. I crumbled it up leaving it where I found it and leaving the room, exactly how it was. I looked at my watch deciding I had to get to work before 12:00.

 

It turns out that I hated my new job an assistant to the big boss is like slaving around doing all the stuff he least cares to do. I had to set up his meeting and I only had ten minutes to do so. I set down each of the packets neatly at each spot. I looked up when I heard the door click shut; it was a man who had a mixture of brown and gray hair and a black coat on.

“Meeting is in ten minutes sir” I said pushing a chair in, he smiled strolling over to me. “I’d like to speak to you” the man said, I sighed turning to face him. “What” I said curtly.

“Are you familiar with a girl, hair black, eyes black and skin pale white” he asked eye brows raised, I gulped and looked at the table then back at him.

“Nope” I said, and his eyes narrowed.  “Well perhaps if I continue to describe. This girl is unusual she hasn’t spoken in ten years, and can write in Greek” he said eye brows rising again, so that’s the language Greek. But why Greek? I wonder if she even understands me or anyone here.

“So” he said. I shoke my head. “No never heard of her. Why are you looking for her anyway” I asked trying to be good at lying. “That’s out of the question but, so it’s a no now, but in time you will see” the man said turning on his heels and leaving the meeting room.

After work I hurried home to see the house was empty and it was already eight. I ran up the steps shouting “Athena” but her room was empty I looked out the window breathing a bit faster, and my heart pounded faster too. Outside it was dark and I could barely see through all the mist I ran back down stairs.

I went in the kitchen right when thunder struck and the lights in the house went out. Then I heard rain pound against our roof top and lightning flashed all outside. I look out the kitchens window. Then I went to the front of the house. I pulled on the door handle, but it was locked, I wanted to go out to look for Athena but the door wouldn’t unlock. Then heard the click and looked up to see that all the windows were locked. It was official that someone or something did not want me to leave the house.

I ran to pick up the phone from the table and dialed 911.I waited for someone to pick up until someone did I was about to yell, help me I’m experiencing paranormal activity in my house. When a young girl started talking. “This is for your safety so please do not panic do something that would not cause you to be frightened” the girl instructed and then the phone line went dead. I put the phone back on the table. And how could I? At a time like this.

 

 

I woke up on the couch were I had curled up on after my failed attempt to calling 911.I yawned stretching since my legs were very stiff. I got up and jumped when I saw Athena standing in front of the window she turned looking at me for a fraction on a second then turned back to the window.

“Where in god’s name have you been” I yelled automatically getting furious. “Do not shout stay quiet” a voice said, I looked around expecting some other person here but there was no one, and I turned looking at Athena. I stood up and walked to her. She turned to me “Shh” she hissed, and my mouth hung open, she was talking. “OKAY START EXPLAINING RIGHT NOW” I stormed, and she turned to look at me her mouth ready to speak until her eyes widened “He knows” she said bewildered. Suddenly she grabbed my wrists pulling me to the back door, I tried pulling away put she was to strong. Then her head whipped sideways, to the front door just as we saw the door break down and the same man walked in.

“THERE SHE IS” the man said pointing at Athena. “RUN” Athena screamed pushing me to the back door “RUN NOW! AND DON’T WORRY ABOUT ME” she screamed placing herself in front of me in protection. Four Men stepped around the man and walked towards her then she pulled out something and I bent sideways seeing that it was knife with a long blade, and what I saw next was unbelievable.

She flipped the first making him fall and she screamed stabbing him in the back and she got up bending quickly as a man tried to punch her but missed and she came back stabbing him in the heart. She quickly stepped over the bodies, head locking one and slitting his throat. Then the last one she easily slipped behind him and stabbed him in the back and he fell to the ground dead. She stood strait her back to me and she was looking at the man. “Hello doctor” she hissed, and then she turned looking at me “RUN” she screamed, and so I turned and darted out the back door. I just saw my daughter kill four men in a split second.
