The Phoenix Rises

Chapter 21 Home not so sweet home

I teleport myself into my room were Safire was sleeping in my bed(her side).I retransform into my normal self before I head downstairs.I see Ryan asleep on the sofa.I look at the clock on the wall.It read 11:37pm.I bent down and stroked his brown hair.It was fine and smooth.Ryan started to move."Hey,wake up."I whispered to him.His eyelids begin to flutter."Hey Phoenix."He said tired closing his eyes.Within a split second his eyes opened again,wide and full of energy."Your back,and in one piece."He said.Giving me a hug.He had a hug just like Dads and my uncles.Even thought he was six foot four,I was still shorter by two inches.He must have seen the sadness in my eyes."What happened?"I told him everything that happened,from the angel,to god,to the 'charming' devil,and my uncle."Ryan chuckled with laughter."The devil thought you were there for fun.That's classic."He said tearing up.Then he straightened."So Uncle helped you."He asked.I nod."Non of this was his fault he was forced by his son.Everything,that has happened is just for fun for my brother."I reply.
Ryan stands up,pacing."We need to solve this once and for all,but how?"He asked scratching his scalp."He made a agreement on his so called soul that he would never harm mortals.But,we all know that can't work out."I state to Ryan.
"Maybe I can help."A familiar voice said.I turn and see a portal appear on the wall and speak of or more like the devil himself appears."Hi Phoenix,nice to see you again."He said with a smile.Ryan was wide eyed."You must be Phoenix's brother,nice to meet you."He said shaking Ryan's hand."Um,he is my boyfriend."I say."Oh,sorry about that."He said to Ryan."What are you doing here?"I ask.He turns to me and he morphs into Crossfire."Oh,thought I would try and scare the heck out of mortal here.He said pointing at Ryan with his thumb.Ryan was about to beat him down.I rush to his side and stop him dead in his tracks."Not funny Crossfire."I shout."Sooooooorry."He said dramaticlly.Before I could punch him a blood curtailing scream comes from my room."Safire."Shouted Crossfire.We burst into my room and Safire was in the hands of herself."Hi sis,nice to see you again.I just came to get my mirror back."He/she said."Let her go."Crossfire said.I step in front of both boys."Power of the Phoenix come to me."A flame circles around me and my teenage clothes change into my work clothes.My wings are longer and more powerful than ever.An so was I.His eyes widened with horror."Lets just say I had a amazing upgrade."I state to the wide eyed lord.He realized what I have earned.Anger flooded into his eyes.He set the mirror back down an disappeared within a cloud of smoke.
