Chapter Text
“Where am i?”
Reyna thought as she woke up in a shallow pool. As she looked below her, she saw turquoise coloured water and with all different types of gorgeous flowers. The woman didn't know where and or how the hell she ended up in this mysterious place. All she knew is that the aura was filled with…warmth and life…
She wasn't the type to feel this aura in any way. All of her world was mostly in fear from human beings and taking souls from her biggest enemies. Some of her co workers were even afraid of her but in reality she hated being looked in that light. Souls for her is just like another way of surviving and no one understood. No one did. Even radiants that were supposed to be on her side.
She admits she is a monster .
But doesn't act like one.
Only when she wants too.
Reyna felt shivers all over her body and continued to look at her figure. She was all nude but the water covered her chest and the rest of her body. Even her silk black hair was all wet.
She then put her wet fingers on her face just to check if anyone hurt her while she was asleep. She didn't feel any cuts or anything that was dangerous so she proceeded to go down on her neck. She felt sudden a shock because she felt as if someone was watching her. Someone who is very dear to her and would always long to always see.
Maybe it was her.. her little sister… Lucia..no it couldn’t be. She died and Reyna got used to it. But she still missed her. Oh so much. All the times Reyna and Lucia used to play dolls or run in The Heart of Mexico while their mom was behind them and telling the girls not to go too far.
It was very good times.
But nothing lasts forever.
The Mexican took a deep breath and looked what was in front or her. She couldnt really see anything but there was very little light. She was curious of what this strange but comforting place is .Reyna knew that this place might be dangerous and trick her in a way so, she walked cautiously forward.
While she walked, she felt the water move with her hour glass body and ran both of her hands in the water. She felt hands on her shoulders and continued to turn behind her. Thinking it was Lucia.. however her thought failed her and saw the water wasn’t the beautiful bright turquoise she had seen before. It was black. Her trail made the water black and made all the alive flowers die. It wasnt a surprise for the woman since she was used to stealing from the alive but this time it felt so different. Reyna turned around to where the faint light was coming from and felt waves behind her back. Perhaps it was a sign to go quicker but ignored it and walked in her slow speed.
As Reyna walked further and further, she heard beautiful humming. Soft and pleasant . It was quiet but loud enough to hear it as it was a familiar voice she definitely heard before but couldn't tell who was singing it. Then picked up the pace a bit.
Maybe it was Lucia trying to get Reyna closer to her.
As Reyna sped up, she felt gentle wind into her face and closed her eyes, trying to enjoy it. As she opened one of her eyes and saw more light, she started running towards into the light. Water splashing everywhere to the dead flowers to her body. She had never felt so much hope. Holding out her hand for her little sister as the mysterious humming became even stronger and louder when she went closer.
Until she saw it. A figure ahead of the woman. She was pale skinned, sitting down on a rock and had a high pony tail. The person’s dark black pony was flowing down to the water and looking like her shoulders were bare with see through clothing
“Sage?”
Reyna spoke in a disappointed tone and took her hand away. She was such a fool that she really thought she could see one of her family members again. The black haired woman turned around to see Reyna. She had brown chocolate eyes and was covering her torso with her crossing her arms. Her legs were closed too with her bare feet barely touching the water. Her brown eyes locked in with Reyna’s purple eyes.
“Oh hello Reyna..”
Sage mumbled under her breath in a unfriendly tone. Sage wasnt the most friendliest to Reyna as she birthed life and gave people a second chance while Reyna snatches it for her own selfish needs.
“May i ask what are you doing here?”
Reyna asked her. She thought Sage knew more about this place.
“I could ask the same for you Reyna.”
She replied as the smaller woman stood up from the rock and walked into the water, making her see through white dress wet and her hair even more wet. She then untied her highpony tail causing the wet hair to fall down. It was a sudden action because Reyna never saw her with her hair down but she will admit she looks very gorgeous with it. Especially with her hair all soaked.
“What on earth are you doing?”
“Just come closer to me…please.”
Reyna was hesitant to walk closer. What will she do to her? Kill her? No she looked sincere as if Sage wanted to help reyna in a way. The taller woman looked back behind her and saw all the pain she has caused to the life maybe Sage had created. She took a deep breath and walked towards Sage. As Reyna walked even closer to her, she never realized how nice Sage was to look at. With her so much innocence in her eyes and no evil in them.
They were now face to face and Sage made a little smile to the taller woman. She cupped Reynas face with both of her petite hands. Reyna felt stunned by this sudden action but at the same time felt something she didn’t feel for many years now.
Weakness.
Reyna felt tears falling down from her purple eyes. This action made Reyna feel the water get warmer and warmer as Sage slowly rubbed her thumbs on Renya’s cheeks. While the black haired woman was doing this, She wanted to take Sage’s hands off her but she felt too sluggish to do so. She hated this feeling but knew she needed to feel it some day.
“Sage what are you doing to me?”
Reyna asked softly to Sage’s ear while her blush slowly became more noticeable. She spoke as quiet as a mouse, trying to comprehend what is happening. She pulled Reyna closer and their lips were almost touching and Reyna swore that she felt Sage’s lips against hers for a split second. She then heard Sage speak in a low seductive voice.
“I suppose i will make you feel something you have never felt before.”
——
Reyna woke up in cold sweat. She was in a room with the bright sun shinning into her eyes. She then turned around and covered the blanket on her head since she hated the sun. As the woman looked at her hands and at her body, she noticed that she was wearing a nightgown and then looked at the wooden floor. There was no water on the floor or any flowers.
Then she realized.
It was all just a dream.
She then stood up and stretched her arms. She then proceed to go to her clean bathroom as she took off her nightgown and went to the shower.
“What was that strange dream?”
She wondered as she was washing herself because Reyna never had a dream that felt so real like that especially about the person who she was supposed to have hatred for. But at the end of the day, a dream is a dream and it doesnt matter. It shouldnt bother her whole morning.
Reyna then did the rest of her morning with brushing her teeth and her hair. She then proceeded to change to a long sleeved white turtle neck and long black pants with her hair in a bun since today was a day off for her. She hated when its days like this because she will be starving for the whole day.
The woman came out of the bathroom, still looking like she was going to fall asleep. If she was being honest,she still wanted to dream about that. Reyna wanted to know what Sage wanted to do to her and what she meant by that sentence. Heal her? Make her a non radiant? Whatever it was maybe it was important.
She went downstairs to see if any of the agents were awake besides the ones which were out on the mission of course. She continued to go to the table were all the agents would gather around and eat together besides from Reyna. She would mostly just be quiet and not make a sound while everyone else would talk to eachother. Reyna didn’t really see anyone until she saw a black haired woman eating boiled eggs and a salad on the side. The woman turned around to Reyna, hearing foot steps coming from upstairs.
And there she was.
The female in her dream.
Sage.
