Echo of cognition(Book 3 of Forgotten Series)

Chapter 30

Dereks perspective.

Its almost time.

I sat in the castles kitchen wondering why Kory had told us to leave the house. He usually wants us there so Ty can be distracted by everything else but now...

It must mean something. It has to mean something.

Drake and Michael called my attention to them.

"Are you prepared for things to get a little crazy?"

I smiled." When am I not ready for that. The real question should be are you ready?" I asked Drake watching for any small indication of a lie.

Carmen touched Drakes forearm causing him to forget all about me and watch her." Im going to the room okay?"

He kissed her softly and watched her walk away. I ran my hand threw Drakes hair." Am I being ignored?"

"No. I just dont feel right."

Dont feel right? Why wouldnt he feel right? "Instincts?"

"Yeah my eye is hurting."

Your eye. Korys words ran threw my head.

Its started.

I didnt have time to warn Drake.

Already? 

Drake fell to the ground no longer moving.

This isnt good at all.

I felt something familiar and looked behind me feeling eyes on me.

What the hell....who is that?

I grabbed Drakes shoulder trying to see what could be done.

Hes unconscious dont worry about him.

Drake falling unconscious randomly? Thats never a good thing. I leaned against the counter and looked to the door which is where Lloyd was." His seal is weakend and cracking. Itll be gone soon."

I figured that already. I could tell when I saw all of Ty's marks showing. That must mean Yessica is also.....

"Shes in her room in about the same condition as Drake. It would be best to move him but you can only touch him after 4 hours."

I see. So as of now I have to only watch him. I cant even kick him?

"No!" Lloyd shouted watching Drakes body slumped on the floor.

" Did you tell everyone the kitchen was off limits?"

"Stay here with him."

Hows Ty doing then?

Lloyd grimaced." Oh....well Ive been told he spoke to her causing her body to..."

Oh.

Is Kory okay alone? I didnt think he would allow him to speak to her that close.

" Dont worry about those two. Kory said hes ready even though im not sure if Ty is ready. I think she has her moments but she can always falter."

Falter? What are you talking about?

" Dont think about it too much. Rosie! Hey-"

Rosie spoke animatedly to me." Hows Drake? Veronica said she knew something was wrong with him. Is h- whats wrong with him!"

"Dont touch him!"I yelled in unison with Lloyd.

Rosie looked at both of us and frowned then obviously ignored us because she was bending down touching Drake. She fell to the floor.
