Hybrid Aria 1-4

She watches herself playing with her daughter. “Why isn’t Amanda, why does she look like me” she says touching the screen when suddenly she hears her own voice again.

“Good girl, Lucy, roll it back” Lucy giggles rolling the ball back,

“Ready? Catch the ball” Reika says at the same time as she does on the screen making me look at her.

“She is mine” she gasps, touching her daughter’s image and watching the video. I watch her watching herself when suddenly someone walks into her cell. They try taking Lucy from her but it doesn’t work, she fights back putting herself between her and her daughter who was crying.

“You can’t have her, I did what you asked” I hear her scream at them before she attacks them.

Lucy crawls under the bed hiding and Reika kills two people that enter her cell. I stood up, about to turn it off but she was in the way. She calls her daughter out from under the bed shielding her eyes away from their bodies that were lying bleeding on the floor. Suddenly the door opens again and I pause in shock when I see they let her mate into the cell for the first time.

He holds his hands up and she stares at him oddly, like she couldn’t believe he was there in her cell.

He waves to his daughter and she rushes to him hugging him, wanting to touch him, her daughter in her arms. I couldn’t make out what they were saying because he was talking in a hushed voice but he sits on her bed taking the baby from her. She sits beside him and brushes Lucy’s hair with her fingers when the door opens again. Three people walk in and she attacks them, her mate holding the baby, when he suddenly walks over handing Lucy to the woman standing at the door.

He tries to calm her when Reika realises he hasn’t got the baby in his arms anymore. She lunges at the woman but he grabs her telling her it is okay and the men rush from the room.

I look at Reika, her entire body shaking as she watches the screen and I hear her sniffle before turning my attention back to the screen. I touch her shoulder and she jumps.

“What did they promise you?” She screams at him smacking him. He grabs her restraining her before I hear his voice.

“Look, I will come back for you, I promise” he tells her and she shoves him off.

“What?” She says.

“If we give them Lucy they will let me go” he says and my blood runs cold. He sacrificed his own daughter for his own freedom.

“No, get her back now” she demands and I watch as fur starts to grow on her, her face twisting in pure rage.

“Amanda, calm down I will come back for you” he tells her and she shifts. She ripped him to pieces. I had never seen anything like it, there wasn’t a piece of him that was left attached even after she killed him, she ripped into him till there was nothing but skin blood and bone left before shifting back.

“I did what you wanted, I did everything, give her back” She screams smacking on the glass but it falls on deaf ears as they ignore her.

She starts trying to smash her way out of the cell, tearing her hands apart and clawing at her own chest screaming for Lucy. She runs at the mirror glass before she suddenly stops completely immobile like a statue. She stares at herself in the glass and I watch her eyes turn black in the mirror and I know that’s when her wolf took over for good. The room fogs up filling with steam and she suddenly collapses before the screen goes black signalling the end of the video.

Reika stares at the screen, her eyes all puffy and bloodshot, tears streaming down her face.

I pull her to me, wrapping my arms around her trembling body. “She took it from me,” she whispers.

“She did it to protect you,” I told her. But she shakes her head before I feel a wave of something when she pulls back looking at me.

“You found her, if you have these you found her” she says and I feel my heart twist painfully in my chest.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

“They are just videos,” I tell her, pointing to the box on the table. She moves away looking in the box picking up the different disks.

“What’s it say?” she says, pointing to the writing. Pulling more and more out.

“Ryker help me what’s it say?” She says, looking at me.

“They’re just videos of you” when she grabs the files looking in them, I try to snatch Lucy’s from her but she turns, ripping it open when Lucy’s photo falls out. She picks it up looking at it. Her fingers brushing the photo gently.

“She is alive” she gasps, her tears dropping on the page before she looks in the box before looking at the file. She starts grabbing disks comparing the writing to the front of Lucy’s file and I try to grab them but she shoves me away before grabbing one that matches.

I try to take it from her but she snatches it back.

“I want to see her, I want to see her put it on” she says trying to figure out how to put the disk in.

“Reika?” I call her, but she ignores me, trying to figure out how to open the DVD player. It works and I scramble to grab it out before she pushes the buttons. I eject the disk.

“No, Reika,” I tell her.

“Put it on Ryker, why are you being like this” she screams pushing the disk back in. She starts pressing the buttons when I unplug it. She screams annoyed before turning on me.

“Reika,”

“Turn it on, turn it on”

“I won’t do that,” I tell her.

“Why please, please I need to see her, I just want to see her”

“You can’t see her Reika,”I tell her looking at the disk she was putting in.

“Where is my daughter?” she asks, making me look at her.

“You have these, what did you do to her?” she screams.

“I did nothing, she wasn’t there Reika. We searched every inch of the place”

“Let me see the video, she was there”

“She isn’t there, I promise just sit down please”

“She is there” she says pointing to the photo on the desk.
