Ria was walking down the side of the ocean like she always did when she needed to think. It helped her to calm down and just, breathe.It was like nothing bad could ever happen on her beautiful, empty beach. No one ever came to this particular beach because not many people knew about it. One day, she had stumbled upon it when she was a little kid and was in need of a friend to talk to. The only other person whom she had ever shared her little beach with was her best friend Lilly. No, she couldn't afford to think of her friends right now. She was supposed to meet up with Adrienne and talk about what they were planning, and how they were planning to approach the Council. She smiled as she thought about how brave her parents must have been when fighting for their cause. I wonder what they were like back then.... They must have been the most wonderful people to be around.
There was only one negative thought clouding her mind. Her parents fell in love. Like truly and wholly love. A type of love that only happens once, and that is true love. True love always prevails. ALWAYS. So why weren't they successful? Her parents had what really mattered the most, and yet they still lost to the bad guys. So what made her think that SHE was any better? If her parents just barely skimmed past the Council's rules, then why would SHE make any difference? She didn't even know what she was really saying when she suggested talking to the Council, she just got mad and said it. she didn't have the slightest clue of how to actually DO any of that.
