 & Beatrix

Why was he doing this? Why did the Ministry need him all of a sudden, especially when a new case was coming up? One where she was apparently in control of....It didn't make any sense to her. What did they want? Why did it have to be now? She couldn't handle being apart from him- he was a huge reason why she was able to keep her thoughts calm for as long as she did in the last case. The feel of his hand gripping hers greatly centered her mind and thoughts- what would she do without him?

Before she could panic further, she felt his hand come up to rest against her cheek. Zara blinked and glanced up at him, her eyes trying to search out any clue that could be hidden in his expression. Her stomach sank as he spoke; his words giving her little confidence. She had this? She couldn't even stomach the thought of this. Not to mention the fact that they each faced the risk of each case being their last, with Felix being the latest victim. Her eyes welled with tears at the fear rising in the back of her mind. She'd go to the asylum, work the case...All with a great possibility of never returning to the house. To him. 

The last thing she wanted to think about was looking after a kid. Sure, she loved children. Even dreamed of having some of her own someday. Maybe. But, teenagers...Teenagers were a different story. It wasn't too long ago that she was one herself; she knew how annoying they could be. Zara didn't want to have to worry about a newbie on her own. Not with everything else she would have to worry about. But his lips on her forehead released a strained breath from her chest. Closing her eyes, she leaned into him and nodded slightly. It was then she realized- for him, she would do anything.

The grin that took up residence on her face soon dwindled as the man started to speak. Her hand slowly dropped from a place of greeting to fall limply by her side. He spoke to her as if bored, uninterested in anything that she was, or could ever be. Trix cringed and shifted her feet, not knowing what else to do as he spoke to her. He didn't even know her- why would he make all these assumptions about her life? He didn't know what she had been through the last year or so- he didn't know the bullying she grew up around- he didn't know anything about her brother- he didn't know. 

Her eyes stayed on him as he continued to speak to her, only glancing away when he finally did. She pulled in a long, shaky breath as she gathered her nerves. The girl had lived her entire life being a spectacle for others to beat down. Trix was done being bullied. She joined ORO for a chance to have a new, fresh start. It was not going to start out this way. With a clear of her throat, she looked at him and folded her arms across her chest. "Okay, you win. You're right. I just turned eighteen and I never graduated from Hogwarts. I dropped out with two years left. So, yes. Young and inexperienced."

With her eyes quickly tearing up, she bit the inside of her cheek. She could feel her body start to shake from pent up frustration. "But don't you dare assume that I don't know how cruel others can be. You saw first hand what happens to me when I get scared, or nervous. My features change without my knowing. For that, I've been bullied relentlessly my entire life. Puberty sucked. Kids are cruel enough on their own- but let's jump forward to the age of sixteen. Fun and sweet, right? Life was getting better. Till I found out my brother used to be a Death Eater. Cool, right? Yeah."

She gave another shake of her head and finally looked away from him. "I ran from home that night. Been living on the streets ever since. You can only imagine how easy it's been for a young, pretty teenager to be on her own, living in those types of conditions. Wondering when your next meal is gonna be. Who you'd have to run away from tonight. Where the next safe place will be to sleep. Yep. Just peachy." 

The breath left her lungs in a whoosh as she let out the rest of her pent up nerves. Shaking her head, she glanced over her shoulder to see Athos- and a huge spider. Her eyes widened slightly before giving a small nod of her head in greeting. "I, uh....uh, yeah....I'm, uh...beginning to see that...Um...You, uh...That's a...Um...Do you know that's a spider?"
