Aria stared at the man, her eyes wide.<br/>What the heck?<br/>She was incredibly confused.<br/>They hadn't slipped her any questionable drugs, right?<br/>She shook her head, looking up at him, then at James, then at the man again.<br/>Aria slowly stood, shaky still because of the beating.<br/><br/>"James...it's...I...I need to go..." She hurried out of the apartment, James watching her, confused.<br/><br/>Sure, the man had talked her into leaving James, but why had she listened to him?<br/><br/>Maybe she was going crazy...<br/><br/>Reaching the ground floor, she stared at the sidewalk, her heart hammering frantically against her chest. What if he came after her?<br/>What if the strange person followed her?<br/>What did he mean by 'I am the guider, now I need guidance,'?"<br/><br/>Exhaling, she looked up at the night sky, wondering what was going on.<br/>Her life was supposed to be normal, calm. Not hectic and out of her control.<br/>She ran a hand through her blonde hair and looked up at the stars, searching for the Big Dipper.
