Talia
~~
“NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NOOOOOOO!” I found myself screaming that word over and over again as the dream faded and I found myself back in my class. Still screaming and crying profusely. There were several people around as they looked down at with concern and worry in their eyes. So of them looked scared while others looked intrigued.
Most of them weren’t saying anything though. They were just watching . Ada was there though, grabbing at one of my hands that was moving wildly around in my frantic state. And my teacher was there as well, Mr. Amadeus.
“Talia? Talia, are you OK? Talia, calm down.” He was grabbing at my other hand to stop from hitting soone.
“NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!” I was still screaming the words.
.....
“Everyone out, now. Class is dismissed. Go!” Mr. Amadeus spoke curtly to the other students. I could hear him, but I couldn’t stop myself from freaking out the way that I was.
“Talia? Are you OK?” Ada wasn’t leaving as the others were told to get out. And it didn’t look like Mr. Amadeus was going to force her out. She was trying to help instead of watching on like I was so kind of freak.
“Talia, it’s OK. It’s OK. You’re in class, nothing bad is happening now. It’s OK. Shh. Shh.” He was trying to soothe with a calming tone to his voice. “Talia! Look at . Co on, look at . Shh. Calm down and look at .” He let go of my hand and reached to grab my face, gently holding onto my cheeks and forcing to look into his eyes. I hadn’t been blinking, this whole ti I had been freaking out my eyes never closed once. And I was still not blinking when I settled my gaze onto him. “Shh. See, it’s OK. You’re OK. You’re in class and nothing is happening. It’s OK. Calm down now, OK.”
As he was trying to calm down more, I heard the door to the classroom bang open and soone angrily ca inside.
“Mr. Amadeus, what is the aning of this? Your class is all in the halls instead of learning.” The principal, a relatively strict warlock nad Mr. Bane, scolded him, however I assu that he saw what was happening and softened his tone almost imdiately. “What is going on in here? What is happening to Princess Talia?”
“She was in a trance of sorts. I am guessing that she was seeing a vision but it wasn’t a pleasant one. I haven’t gotten her to speak yet. I am still calming her down.” He spoke curtly to the principal as he steadied my head and forced to look at him. Mr. Amadeus was also a warlock, one that had been around for a long ti. I felt like he was trying to make eye contact with so that he could use his magic on . “Talia, look at .” He was speaking to once again, his voice calm and soothing. “Look at , Talia.” Finally, his amber colored eyes locked onto mine and I felt a rush of his magic, just for a mont. “Shh. Shh. See, it’s OK.”
I finally blinked. My arms finally stopped struggling to fly around and beat at the people that were inside of my head. I took a deep breath, sothing that I must have been neglecting since it felt like my lungs were starved for air.
“Huuuuuuuh.” The sound of my breath coming into my oxygen deprived body was very audible. And in that mont, I finally felt like I was out of that dream.
“There we go. That’s better now. It’s OK, Talia. You’re back in school now. That vision can’t hurt you. You’re OK.” I felt him stroking the side of my head as if I was a cat or sothing. “Shh. See, all is OK now.”
“I..I..I am so sorry.” I imdiately apologize for the problems that I caused. “I..I..I d..didn’t an f..f..for this t..to happen.” I was stuttering as I tried to slow my heart rate down. Everything else seed almost back to normal except for that.
“It’s OK, Talia. I understand. You are more special than the other students in that fact that you have abilities that none of us do. You are like your mother, special beyond our wildest dreams. I know you didn’t choose to have a vision just now, but it happened. We just need to deal with it for now, OK. Are you feeling better now?” My heart was almost back to normal. My breathing was steady, and I was awake. That was as good as I was going to get, since I would never forget what I had seen.
“Y..yes, I am OK now.” I tried to nod, but Mr. Amadeus was holding onto my head so I couldn’t. He seed to notice though, so he let his hands fall away and backed up a little bit.
“That’s good. I am glad that you are feeling better now.” He smiled calmly. “You should go ho though. I think that it would be best for you to go and discuss this with your parents. You know that they will want to know what happened.” He rose to his feet. “Would you like to call them?”
“They are in a eting. I w..will just call my bodyguard. He will co to get . And I will tell my parents when they are out of their eting.” I wasn’t going to hide this from them. I knew that I needed to tell them what happened.
“Very well then. Which guard do you want to call?” He reached for his phone. I wondered then if all my teachers had the phone numbers for my two guards.
“Alexio.” He was the one that I wanted to co and get . He was the one that I felt the most at ease with. Not that Rudy wasn’t a good man, but Lex was different. He was calming for .
“Alright.” Mr. Amadeus dialed a number and handed the phone. It rang only twice before it was answered by Lex’s deep voice.
“Amadeus, what is wrong?” He sounded worried.
“Lex, it’s .” I knew I didn’t need to give my na.
“Talia? What happened? Why are you calling from your teacher’s phone?” I could already hear him walking on the other end of the call.
“I..I had sothing happen in class today. C..c..can you co and get ? I need to go ho.”
“Yes, I am on my way. I will be there soon.” He sounded like he was already in the echoing garage where the cars were parking under the castle. “Just stay calm and wait for . See you in a few minutes.”
“Thank you, Lex.” I wanted to cry again. “Please hurry.” I ended the call and handed it back to Mr. Amadeus.
“There, that will be better. Now, let us get you to the office. Can you walk?” He sounded like he was still worried about as he put his phone away.
“I..I think so.” I went to stand up but found that my body was feeling very weak. I start to fall over almost imdiately. If it wasn’t for Mr. Amadeus, I would have tumbled down the stairs of the lecture hall all the way to the lectern.
“Whoa there.” He caught and steadied before I could get hurt. “It looks like you need so help.” He swung up into his arms effortlessly and started to carry toward the door. “Ada, can you get her things for , please.” He didn’t look back at my friend that had been watching.
“Oh, yeah, sure.” She started to gather them and then followed us on a jog.
“Mr. Bane, I will be taking her to the office now. I am sorry that I dismissed my class early, it was sort of an ergency though.” The principal followed us out of the room and looked worried. I probably looked how I felt, embarrassed.
“No, it’s quite alright, Mr. Amadeus. This was necessary.”
The principal actually ran ahead of us and made sure that the hall was clear all the way to the office. He even held the door for us as Mr. Amadeus carried inside and set in a chair near the door.
“Here we are.” He said as he stood back up. “Are you feeling OK? Would you like sothing to drink or to eat? I know that after visions sugar usually helps to perk people right back up.”
“I..I don’t know.” I shrugged my shoulders and shook my head at the sa ti. “I don’t feel much like eating right now, so I guess no.”
“OK then, you should eat when you get ho then. Have soone get you sothing with a lot of sugar in it. Your body is going to need it.”
“I will, Mr. Amadeus, thank you.” I nodded at him, happy that he was being so helpful.
“Of course, Talia. I am worried about you, after all. And if you don’t mind, I will gather your work for the day and bring it by later. I would like to talk with your parents, if they are willing to et with . I know that they are very busy people though.”
“I will set it up.” I heard a deep voice from near the door. I don’t know how I didn’t notice that he was there sooner. Lex’s scent should have hit sooner, but I was sohow not picking it up yet. Maybe my mind was still all ssed up from the vision. “I know that they will want more details about this later, as will I.”
“Of course, Mr. Ptolemy. I would be grateful if you did that. Please, send a ssage or call when it is ti for to head over. I will have the work ready for Princess Talia then.”
“Thank you.” Lex said as he was already walking over to , and I saw that he was looking worried and angry. He wasn’t mad at . Or at anyone really. He was just mad that sothing happened that he hadn’t been able to protect from. He took his job very seriously.
“Hello Lex.” I looked up at him, which was a considerable distance to tilt my head back.
“Talia, are you OK?” His voice was gentle when he spoke to now.
“I am, but I feel weak.” I told him as I tried to get up. This ti I couldn’t even make myself stand.
“I will carry you.” He reached down and lifted gently into his arms. “Just rest against and you will be fine.”
“U..uh..uhm, M..M..Mr. Alexio, Sir, I have Talia’s things here.” Ada had put it all into my backpack for . “There might be more in her locker though.”
“I will take this for now.” He took the bag as he carried in just one arm.
“Talia, can I have Ada access your locker for you?” Mr. Amadeus asked in a concerned voice. “To bring it ho for you?”
“There is nothing in there. I was getting my textbooks as I went to each class and hadn’t put anything into my locker yet.” I explained it to him.
“Ahh, understood. Then I will get the rest of your books and bring them to you later. Go ho and rest now.” His tone was also concerned and worried about .
“Thank you, Mr. Amadeus.”
“Of course, Talia.”
Now that I was in Lex’s arms, I knew that it was ti to leave. He made his way out of the office and toward the door that was thankfully right there. There was no need to worry that soone was going to see him carrying unless they were looking out the window. And even then, Lex was so much bigger than that they were likely to only see him. That was good, there were going to be enough rumors already, with those that had seen freak out in the classroom.
