Episode 2 Holding your hand with my heart

Previously on Glitch diaries....

The red lights made everyone turn to dust...

I never stopped running....

In the Present...

Keiara: Hi, again...so as you know ... I'm 23 now...my whole life has been a lie... I'm in love with my arch nemesis.... I destroyed both of my homes....oh... sorry... I wasn't supposed to say that yet...

...17 years ago...

Keiara:I wonder why the red lights took everyone...maybe they're enemies...

I carried on walking until I saw a town...on the sign it said...Arcadia....there were some people from back home....actually most of them were here ...with their families....but...where was my family?...

Aaliyah:Hey Keiara!....

Keiara:Hello... why are you all here?

Aaliyah:What do you mean....the soldiers took all the bad people with the pink Glitch marks and turned them to dust ....

Keiara:pink Glitch marks don't make someone bad....they were bad people ...not soldiers...

Aaliyah:they were to...

Keiara:were not!

Lady:Aaliyah ....where are you?...(calls out and walks towards them)… K-Keiara.... you...your alive....get inside...

I followed them inside and that old hag made me go in the basement...

Keiara:why are you taking me here?

Lady:hopefully none of the ordinary people or Heroes saw you....if the villains did...they wouldn't say anything...but then again... they could...but ...no I'm sure they wouldn't....

Gee.... I guess what everyone said about Aaliyah's mother was true...she really doesn't know how to keep quiet...

Keiara: what's going-(alarm sounds)

Lady:oh heavens!…you must go....at once!

Keiara:why.....where are you going?

Lady:(kneels down)...listen Keiara....you have a very special gift.... you're a Glitch...and not just a normal one like the rest of our people...you have a pink Glitch mark...you can have as much power as you want...(sirens)...

Keiara:where are you going(looks outside) what's happening -....

Just like back home....but it was different...the ... Heroes…the ones that were meant to save us....were killing my people...almost every Glitch was gone... I watched my best friends disappear...along with their parents, grandparents.....everyone.…the only ones left were me and Aaliyah's mother...

Lady:Keiara, you must never let anyone see your powers... ok

Keiara:(nods)

Lady:I hope I see you again ....one day... goodbye...(runs out into the street)...hey I'm over here!

I hid and silently watched as Aaliyah's mother disappeared...the red water seemed to be pouring from every part of her body...it was then that I realized that...we weren't playing hide and seek were we.....my heart started beating fast and my breathing raised....my parents....my sister....my people.... were all ...gone....

...In the Present...

Keiara:why was I so naive... I could've saved them... but instead... I was a coward….and I hid...that was the day that I felt truly alone...

...17 years ago...

As Aaliyah's mother was about to pass away...I saw her lightning...blue ....it sent a shock through my veins as she struck me...

Soldier 1:why would she hurt an innocent kid...

Soldier 2:Glitch disgust me

She used her power to disguise me...now I was an ordinary on the outside....and ...a monster within
