You Were Warned
Pisces It took me a bit to spot Aquarius! From the last time we hung out together, she had coloured her hair, charcoal black hair with hints of blue. Straightened it with it being much longer than previously. ‘The change suited her!’ I thought to myself. Weaving past the people at the airport, I led her to where I had parked. I placed her bag in the back. She placed her finger to her lips to indicate that I should not say a word. She inspected the front to back of the car. Her hand glowed blue as she placed her hand near my keys. A microscopic chip was attached to a key, something my father and I did not find. Writing on a pad, “Do you need this?” I motioned my head to say no! Ripping the infected spare key off my metal ring, she tossed it into the trash can. Getting into the car, I slowly exited out of the area heading towards my house. “You coloured your hair! It looks good!” I decided to start a conversation to get rid of the dead air. “I had to … Parppavar’s spies are everywhere … I did not want to be easily identified. They have identified me as the redhead … Merna or the hybrid!” Aqua glanced at me, “They have yet to join all of those together.” She huffed, “the further I go down the rabbit hole, the more more trickier it becomes for me to keep my identity hidden. I am starting to wonder if this is worth all the energy?” “I understand!” I was not lying. “From the point I could walk and talk, it was drilled into me secrecy and protection. When you are alone … the burden is solely on you. As a group it is a shared effort!” “You are correct! I … enjoy my solitude with no one around! A quiet life!” I thought about the house Aqua lived in. How far away from things the amenities that we all enjoy. Then I remembered how plain the place was, the decoration spoke volumes. This was Aquarius! What we say we need in our life, she sees as a distraction! Only keeping what she needed. ‘I wonder if I took out all of the unnecessary things in my life, would I find peace and happiness?’ I thought to myself. Breaking the silence, “While you are at the meeting you will be addressed as Aquarius. The hair change will help for a bit.” I mentioned as I focused on the road.“The imposter did not have the chance to activate the device properly” Aqua chuckled, “they do not know what they are doing. How much of me have you mentioned to the others?” Aqua was serious in her questioning. “Word gets around fast! We have referred to you as a sorceress. My father, Sagittarius and I are the only ones who know what you look like. I can tell you for sure Sagittarius is not our spy.” I was thinking back to when Etiri killed his five-year-old daughter. “They killed his daughter … there is no way he is a traitor!” “Fuck!” Merna said slowly, “I thought when my dog was killed, that was harsh! To kill a kid … that is a whole new low.” “They shredded the little girl while she was still breathing!” I stated. “Yeah! … No! There is no way you can go through that and work for them! I would want their blood!” Merna was thinking. “Catching the imposter is going to be a little bit difficult. You see who we are looking for can change their appearance. This shapeshifter or Changeling whatever you want to call them … the imposter could be you … could be me … could be anyone that we know of. Going from one place to another, changing their appearance with a snap of their finger. The only way I can think of catching the Imposter is seeing them. looking them in the eyes. Did you know that looking into somebody's eyes is the window to their soul?” “I heard that somewhere once!” “Can you think of at any point of time one of the zodiac members claiming to be injured, losing memory, something that would explain a change in behaviour?” While driving I thought about sudden changes in all of our behaviour. All of us have been attacked at one point … some more than the others. None of us had been acting out of character. Aquarius was not pleased when she found out that the task of getting the imposter was going to be a lot harder. “Tell me you have a safe place to go that no one but you and your dad goes to?” Aqua asked. I shook my head no! Aquarius informed me that she has seven safe houses in different locations that she could get to in a pinch. Continuously moving was one way to stay ahead of what was hunting her. Aqua chuckled a bit. What hunts her is narrow minded, only seeing what is there never truly seeing what is real. “You might want to do that and only go to the shop when needed! Things are going to get very bad! When things start to get heated … Every single one of you is going to be hit, and they are aiming to kill! If you think they will not … remember the five year old girl!” The rest of the ride was grim and silent as we both glared out the front window. I pondered on what she had said. Pulling into the driveway Aqua pulled out her pad of paper.Reading the message, “Text your father telling him that you will be here in five minutes and to meet him outside. Do not say a thing about me!” I did as she said. I did not understand why she was doing this but I was following along. In five minutes my father came outside, he was as confused as I was. Aquarius was writing on the pad again. “Is there anyone inside?” She asked. My father shook his head no! Placing her finger to her lips she directed her feet to our living quarters. Like she did with the car she roamed around the place looking for hidden devices. My father wanted to tell her we had already done this, but I stopped my father. Shaking my keys I was hoping he would clue in that Aqua found what we had not! After fifteen minutes of not finding anything, we explained everything. Aquarius filled us in on everything that she had been doing and seen. “So let me get this straight, you have dreams … one of those dreams lead you to Florida. You can do remote viewing … but can not hear what is being said. While you were visiting Florida you spotted Parppavar and Mannel!” My father paced the area. “Yes! I had a dream that their spy told them about me! Did you say to your group that I was staying here?” Merna asked. I shook my head no. My father looked pale, “I was so excited I told Ophiuchius … who probably told others of your arrival!” “I was hoping nothing would have been said!” Aqua was thinking for a bit. “If things work out properly, no one will attack you here! I do recommend finding a safehouse.” Pausing, “They also know about the group of individuals from the Zodiac that are training. I can not remember the location but in my dream, there was a lot of sand. Buildings that are all run down. A major cartel that operates in the location! Does this sound familiar to you?” “Aries!” My father hissed. “This is not my doing! We might work as a group for the better good of the magickal community, sharing information … but when he disagrees with something. He will do what he wants and take others with him. He is working outside of the group! Aries wanted to attack our etirikal.” He was pissed. “I can tell you this … from my dream!” Aquarius emphasized that this was based on her dream. “They suck! The etirikal are the elites and the group Aries is training are wanna be gangsters. They have no formation … no tacktick … no skill! They are trigger happy bootlickers! They are going to get themselves killed in the first attack this group attempts.”“Father, we have to stop them!” “I have another suggestion … join the two groups, the Zodiacs with the Constellations. If we are going to with the war, we need to be more transparent.
