Here is Arya new style in this chapter

-------

The next morning, Arya is woken up by the doorbell ringing. She gets up and sees Touya return with a couple of bags bearing the logo of one of the most expensive stores in the city. After handing them over, she tells him to hurry up and get ready because they are waiting for them at the corporation, so she goes to the bathroom and tries on a turtleneck sweater along with a skirt. As she combs her fingers through her hair, she wonders why she is the only one who has been born with type zero blood in all these years. Outside, Touya is dressed in a grey suit and before she can say hello he tells her that today the Corporation has presented the request so Witterby can be my legal tutor and that Mr Cleirstein is supporting him  as he prefers I am under Witterby custody than my mom meanwhile the Court determinates he is able to raise me properly.

—Witterby has asked me to be your bodyguard. Today you have classes so I will be your shadow all day.

—The school will not allow it.

—They agreed. I Bought you a new uniform go and get change, I will wait you in the car.

I must find out what the Corporation wants from me and for that I must convince Touya to break his loyalty towards Witterby.

I find some scissors and I cut my hair as a sign that I belong to the Corporation now. The old Arya is death and cannot go back in time to change it so all I can do is go forward.

While in the car, Touya gives me a card with his number and tells me to add it to my contacts but I tell him that was in the bag they stole me.

Then he passes me his phone and tells me to click the button to reset it from fabric.

—Is your now, if something happens call the number of this card.

It was Witterby personal phone number.

The car stops in front of the main gate and Touya takes a packback from the backseat. He says all what I need for classes is there.

—People are gonna start gossip if you are around me all day, I am trying to adapt to this new school and you are just gonna make it harder.

— You should feel lucky, other girls would be dying for having a y man as his shadow.Now let’s go.

As soon we step out of the car  everyone was looking at me but I could not see Touya expression as he put his dark glasses. The Janitor says he must be the bodyguard that was expected to protect Arya and Touya simply nods.

« The nightmare has begun».

Touya open the door of my classroom and wait till I walk in first. Lisa eyes went wide when he saw him and from one moment to another all the girls were asking a lot of questions when suddenly Christa Sheen said I was a Coward girl who is always afraid to the point  that I cannot deal my own matters that I have to hire a bodyguard.My face turn red and i just wish I had brought the scissors to cut her face in a thousand pieces but then Touya surprised me by saying that having fear is also an act of bravery as admitting it is not something that every human does while she hides her jealousy of not having a bodyguard by insulting his client.

—I Will not allowed any kind of offense towards Mrs Cleirstein. Is that clear?

—Yes.

—Great. I will be by the window. Excuse me.

Touya was with Arya during all her classes but he could not be in the dressing room when it was time for Arya Acrobatic gym Club.

Arya was changing into her gymnastic leotard when the fire alarm started to rung. She tried to open the door but it was locked and the smoke was filtering from under the door. She called Touya name but he didn't respond.

Suddenly, one of the men that worked at home open the door and said Touya has been kidnapped by some thief’s with a black mask.

—I have to save him. In which direction did they go?

—Are you crazy? leave that to the police.

—I will just follow them and call them.

—I think they are heading to the exit that leads to the Greenhouse.

I was still wearing my underwear so I pick a towel and run but in my mind I kept asking my self why I was risking my self for someone that I bearly know. I felt like my heart was gonna desintegrated in a thousand pieces as my blood was not enough for all the force I was asking to my body. By the time I reached the  wooden-fence door my  barefeets were bleeding but I quickly trash away that thought so I could concentrate.

The Greenhouse was just a few steps ahead  and the heavy mud didn’t let me advance quickly. I pass some palm trees until I get out of the forest and I see the Greenhouse. It was a crystalized building  with  a lot lof pretty plans. I slowly opened the door  and suddenly I step on a paper with some words were cutted from a magazine. As soon as  I read It I had to grab to the door handle « Mrs Cleirstein, we have Touya. If you would like to  see him again come to the Chelsea Harbour, we wil wait you in the yatch named  Cleopatra. If you tell the police he is done for ».

—Excuse me.—the man worked at school was handling my backpack—. Good I catched you, I thought you may  need your things.

—Thanks.

—You must be very fond for a Bodyguard you barely new.

—Is not that, It just that lately he had been a huge support for me so I believe I owe him.

— The teacher of the Club came and I said your bodyguard took you to the hospital.

—Thanks, would you mind turn around.

I put the  gym uniform and while the man was still looking to the other direction I said goodbye to him and I start running to the closest subway station.

hello guys, here you have the update as i promised. Until next sunday.

thanks for liking my story

--------------------------------------------------

20 minutes later I am buying a ticket in the subway station when Touya phone started to rang. I pick up and inmediatley I hear Witterby voice asking me were I was. I lied to him by saying I was at the hospital cause there was  a  fire at school so they were making me a routine check out. Unfortunatley that did not convince him as ask me why I was answering his phone. I explained him I lost mine during the robbery.

—That is the worst lie ever, tell me what happened.

—I cant, I have to go.

I turned off the phone so they could not track me.

After I was abused I started caring less for others and more for myself. Although, I am aware is a selfish way of thinking but it simply just happened. Is amazing how circumstances can transform in a person that you  never  expected but Touya words to Christa Sheen  woke up something in me and gave me the courage to go after him. My loved ones had always been watching my back and is time that I learn how to do it now.

The train was quite at this hour and there was a Tv transmitting the news. Lately, the news had been about non important stuff as nothing happens in London so the journalists just prepare reports about any trash they can to justify their job.

Chelsea harbour was one of the smallest ports around London where people kept their private  yatches  and is  surrounded by luxury apartments. It a quite busy area during the day but today the city was organizing a sailing competition so the area would be empty and the marine police will be distracted with it.

I get out from the station and walk through a cobblestone street that goes beside the ocean. The water looks shiny due to the sun reflecting in the surface and the air feels warm. Once I get to the docks and I search for the boat but I couldn’t find it. My phone started ringing and I recognise is them.

— Some unexpected visitors were coming to the harbour. We need you to take the green boat is at your left and drive  to Dover Cliffs.

—I don’t know how to sail.

—Just turn the key and move the handle forward.

—Okay.

They cut the call and I start driving. Hopefully Dover Cliff was on the opposite direction than were the race was taking place. Also, I don’t have a license so I could get in trouble.

Finally, I see a white old yatch tied to one rock that was floating over the water and one men that looked like arabian with dark skin and a long black beard was holding a gun.  As soon as he sees me, he tells me to swim to the boat. I took of my hoodie and jump into the cold water. I climb trough the ladder and the man told me to follow him inside. Touya face darken when he saw me but he couldn’t speak as his mouth was tied with masking tape and a fourty-  whited skin man with ginger hair was sitting in front of him with a  knife.

—So you are here, Arya.

—What do you want from me?

— Your  Blood is special. The last person who had it was million of years ago, they were people born in a  Celt tribe. According to our research common blood groups are dissapearing by genetical changes in peoples bodies.

—And what that has to do with me?

—Your Blood type is special, it is not affected by genetics factors that can make it change. Our company wants to study your blood to see if we can replicate your Mother Cells. And is that exactly what we think Starlight Corporation is doing.

—If that is what you want then take it and let us go.

—Is not that easy, Mother cells only last a couple of days. We need you to come with us.

— I cant. Witterby is my legal guardian.

—In that case,— the man puts a knife in Touya neck—. Say Goodbye to him.

—Wait, I will do it.

—Nael, the contract.

The arabian man place me a paper over a table were says from now on I would leave in the dependencies of Cosmo as a volunteer for experiments until the company has find the results are needed.

I pick up the pen and was about to sign when suddenly a strong wave hit the yatch and I hit my self with a door. The movements were so powerful that everytime I try to stand up I ended on the floor. Then Nael says there is a storm outside and that has cut the rope.  He adds we will end crashing in the cliffs if we don’t move.

—Then do something!—yells the man.

Seconds later he comes back saying that the engine has broken and that we need to try to rowl to the coast.

—You two will help. But don’t think I wont be observing you.

The ginger  man says we must take the boat to the small beach is under the cliffs. While I row my brains spins trying to find a way to get rid of the arabian man as he is the most dangerous for having a gun but suddenly I started feelick sick for having wet clothes.

A dense mist shows up and suddlenly I could not see the man. Nature has just saved us both. Quickly I crawl to the other side of the boat when suddenly my head hits with something making me scream the word « shit». I hear Touya voice telling me to kept quiet.

—Is useless to hide— shouts the gringe man— I will find you.

Touya takes my hand  and we crawl blindly until I recognise the Rudder. Suddenly a lighting crossed through the clouds and falls over my boat. The fire rises to the sky  and one minute later started to sink.

—Put this—Touya has found a life jacket—. I am going right behind you.

—No, I am not leaving….

I couldn’t finish the sentence because Touya scream.

—Next cut will be more deep—says the ginger man.

—Go to the lighthouse, now—says Touya.

—No. I will save you.

Touya kick me in the chest and I fall into the ocean. Hopefully I was still holding the lifeline.

I tell myself that I must trust him so I swim to the coast with the help of the waves that were pushing me into that direction. Once  my feets reached the beach I look at an artificial path the government had made so visitors can access to the beach.

If the storm was not that bad probably the marine would have send off the ships to patrol but not with this weather.

After the abusement I never expected someone would try to save me and now that Touya  sacrificed for me I don’t know how to process it but a tear falls from my eye. I turn around and screamed his name to were the boat should be  saying that Bodyguards cannot die.

20 minutes later I am buying a ticket in the subway station when Touya phone started to rang. I pick up and immediately I hear Witterby voice asking me were I was.

A white lighhouse appeared as soon as I finish walking to the top and I was only a few steps from the door when I started to feel worst. I  touch my forehead and realised my body was burning.

Before I could knock the door a 30 year old boy with black hair and light blue eyes comes out and tells me with an angry voice what I was doing outside.

—Some men have…

I fainted before I could tell him  where Touya was.
