Chapter 7

Leo POV:
I inhale the hot air while walking to the car. My thoughts were running together, I was confused. I truly don't know any of the people I called my friends. The only one I could say I knew was Capricorn, I already knew she was involved with the snakes. She's actually the reason I'm with them i'm the first place.

The two I am most confused about are Scorpio and Cancer. I didn't realize how emotional Scorpio could get, he's never cared about anyone before and yet he somehow starts to care about a girl he barely knows? That logic is beyond my understanding, he's such a strange guy. For someone who's supposed to be feared, cold and heartless towards everyone even his own friends at times. Him caring about someone is so out of character but I don't blame him.

It's hard to understand unless you know Cancer, then I guess it all adds up. To sum all of it up in a short way, she is basically perfect. She cares about everyone no matter what they've done to her, and she has such a kind soul. It hurts to know she had to endure such malicious and personal attacks to be honest. If you looked at her now you wouldn't even think she went through all that just yesterday.

I look over at her, she was smiling as bright as ever while talking to Capi. While watching Cap laugh I couldn't help but smile. She's like a young bratty sister in a non-taboo way.

I sigh as the weight of the girls was starting to get to me.

"God damn it, Cap you're gonna have to hold one of them", I said.

"No way in hell, you can do it yourself."

"I can do it, hand Taurus to me", Cancer spoke up.

"Are you sure? She's a lot taller than you", I commented.

"Yes i'm sure, hand her over", she came over to me and took Taurus in her arms. My jaw dropped as she held Taurus in her hands with such ease, even I had trouble holding her. What the fuck is she, there's something that doesn't add up.

"Pst Capricorn ", I called her over towards me. She walked over me and looked up.

"Yes?"

"How much do you know about Cancers history?", I asked curiously.

"I know that she didn't have the best childhood, she was always so stingy on the details. We've only known each other for 2 years, so beyond that I don't know", she explained.

So no one knows her past? There's something fishy with her. Not in a negative way but in a way that I just know she knows some important information. I put it on my to-do-list that I have to keep my eye on her.

"Is Libra coming to the meeting?", I ask Capricorn.

"Yeah she is, you know now that I think about. I wonder if she recruited Pisces. I know that she got Gemini in on it"

"Gemini? Omg I haven't talked to him in so long, I kinda miss him he was pretty cute", Libra gushed. Anger flared in me, I'm way cuter than him.

"OH MY GOD YOUR FACE TURNED RED, is Leo jealuouss?", she cooed.

"WHAT NO OF COURSE NOT, but I will say I'm definitely cuter", I huffed. She giggled at my statement and shook her head. I don't understand why she was laughing, it's true. He's just an overhyped douche bag.

We finally arrived to the car and I sighed from relief. Virgo was starting to get heavy and it was getting to me. I glanced at Cancer and she wasn't even sweating nor was she panting out of breath.

"Alright put them in the backseat, I'll get the car started", Libra called out while running to the front.

Cancer slid Taurus in the seat and buckled her up. I wanted to compliment how adorable I thought it was but I dropped it out of fear of having my jaw broken by her. I could not have anything mess up my beautiful face. Just the thought of that made me fill up with sorrow.

I opened up the car door and gently set Virgo down in the seat. I knew if I hurt her in anyway Taurus would have my head on a platter. Even though we are on opposing teams doesn't mean I don't care about their opinions. In the end all 12 of us are mysteriously connected, though we may not all know it quite yet.

"Shit there's not enough room for all of us", Capricorn cursed.

"You guys go without me, I have other business to attend. I'll meet up with you guys later on.", Cancer gave Libra a quick hug and me a salute then ran off. She is such a weirdo I just had to chuckle. I closed the car door and jumped into the passenger seat.

"All aboard! Make sure all hands are inside at all times. With me in here we could consider this the fun train", Capricorn joked.

"Please shut up, you're being embarrassing.", I booed her.

"I am not i'm being so much fun, I don't know what you're talking about"

"How about after we finish up here we can go on a 'date' and you can prove to me that you truly are fun", I challenged her. "If you don't accept I'm just gonna automatically assume that you're boring".

"Oh fuck you Leo- wait date? I'll only go if you buy me food ", she huffed.

"It's a deal then", I chuckled. "We will go after the meeting".

She started up the car and drove out of the parking garage. She was humming a soft melody and to my surprise it actually sounded really good. I let her continue doing it for a few minutes before I decided to say anything.

"Do you sing cap?", I asked her curiously. She looked at me startled and her face turned tomato red.

"WHAT? WHY? NO I DONT HAHA", she stuttered nervously.

"Oh my god you do, and you never thought to tell me", I stated offended.

"It's embarrassing okay? You better not tell anyone-", Capricorn was cut off but hands wrapping around her throat. We started swerving and cars all around us started honking.

"You dumb bitches, you'll pay for putting your hands on Virgo", Taurus growled. I took my switchblade from my pocket and held it up to her neck.

"STOP BEING STUPID AND LET LIBRA GO BEFORE I SLIT YOUR THROAT. WE CAN PULL OVER AND YOU TWO CAN GO", I begged her. All Taurus did was stare at me and choked Libra harder.

"TAURUS STOP WE ARE GOING TO CRA-", we swerved into the grass right into a tree. Everything went black and all I heard was a ringing sound. I screamed out for Capricorn, tears streamed down my face as I called out for her.

"CAPRICORN, SAY SOMETHING IF YOU CAN HEAR ME", there was nothing but dead silence. I felt my hands around for Capricorn and jumped when I felt her cold hand. I slid her into my arms and cradled her in fear it may be my last time holding her. I held her close to me, crying into her neck.

"Capri... you can't leave me, I can't do this without you", I sobbed. As I cried to her, I heard sirens. Medics surrounded us and everything was getting hazy.

"Sir, we are going to need you to let go of the girl", I ignored the medic and squeezed her as tight as I could before passing out.

There is one thing certain, if Capricorn doesn't make it I will get revenge. Even if it kills me, they are gonna take her away from me. They can't do that, they just can't. I care about you so much Capricorn, i'm sorry i let this happen..
