The doorbell rings making Elina jerk up in surprise, her eyes flutter as she sits up trying to figure out what time it is. The bell rings again and she looks at the window to her left finding the sun was long gone and the city had come to life. She wipes the drool from her mouth and stumbles out of bed to the front door.
She looks out the door's peephole noticing no one is there. She closes her eyes trying to remember whether she had ordered food or something online. She shakes her head opening the door.
Bright light from the hallway streams into her room and she closes her eyes for a moment before rubbing them open and poking her head past the threshold.
"Hello," A sweet voice says beside her.
She jumps noticing a girl with bleach blonde hair and wide eyes smiling at her. She leaned against the wall next to the door her smile becoming even wider as Elina stares at her.
Elina gulps then turns away, closing the door behind her.
"Wait," The girl says knocking again.
Elina takes a small step away from the door making sure it is locked. "I'm sorry, i'm not intrested."
"My name is Luna," the girl says from beyond the door.
"Well that's great but I am going to have to ask you to leave or I'll have to call the-"
"I know what you are." She interjects.
Elina takes a cautious step forward. "What I am?"
Luna speaks in a cheerful tone. "You see dark beings called wisp right an-and you can touch them but sometimes you can't correct?"
Elina takes a step forward. "Yes,"
"Come out and talk to me, please and I can tell you what I think you are."
Elina takes a deep breath as adrenaline rushes through her veins. She has a few options, the first was to chase this woman away, the second was to call Neto and the final one was too speak to her and learn just what Neto was along with herself.
Elina exhaled. "And what are you?"
"Excuse me?"
"Are you an Iris?"
"Not exactly."
"How did you find me?"
She fell silent. "I sensed you."
Elina laughs. "You sensed me." She mimics with disbelief.
Luna sighs through the door before putting back on her giddy persona. "Let me in and I'll tell you what I am along with what you are."
Elina takes a deep breath about to open the door until she remembers the dagger on her neck. She takes the choker off and turns it into a dagger. She places the blade behind her and opens the door.
Luna smiles wide.
"Come in." Elina sighs.
