The Fallen Apostle

{Chapter 5}

"Is there something wrong?" I asked coming into the bathroom as another person appears into the corner of my eye.
"Oh, its just you" Evangeline sneers at me while comforting Christina who is leaning into her chest balling her eyes out. What is her big deal with us? First, she tried killing Marcus and now she's just being a total bitch.
"Go away!" screams Christina again as she glares at me with her blood red eyes. I wanted to approach her but I hesitated. What would happen if she bursted into tears again?

"You shouldn't be so rude Christina" came a cold cool voice from behind. As I turn around I could see him leaning on the door scruffling at his pulled back hair as he takes it down to a side fringe.
"BUT SHE'S GOING TO KILL JUDAR, RAVEN!!" Christina screams again shooting up as Evangeline jumps back surprised.
"Judar?" I asked, sounding confused.
"He's the intruder that the old bastard asked to kill." Raven snarls, sounding way different then what he usually sounds like.
"He is?" asking again trying to get more information about this 'Judar'.

"Don't sound stupid, Judar is the intruder that you're trying to kill." he snarls again taking a step closer to me.
"He is also OUR friend" sneers Evangeline pulling out a gun from under her sleeve and points it at me. Don't get me wrong, I would've taken my gun out the instant she took hers out. But I resisted, I had to show them that I meant no harm.
Yet.
"Evangeline! Are you going to kill her?" asks Christina as she holds onto Evangeline's arm. She doesn't even look down to her, instead she stares dead at me, and does her murderous smile.
"If I don't, then she'll kill Judar" 
Tightening on the trigger, I could feel my hand twitching, aching to grab my pistol and shoot her down before she shoots me.

"It isn't nice stealing another persons weapon you know?" calls a calm voice from behind distracting  us from our little show down. 
It was Marcus.
He was holding a knife at Raven's neck. But it seemed futile as Raven twist's his way out of Marcus's hold and grabs his neck holding him up in mid air.
"Holy shit" I gasp. THESE PEOPLE CAN'T BE JUST SERVANTS. 
First Evangeline's ninja jump. Now Raven's super strength. They definitely ARE NOT normal.

"RAVEN! EVANGELINE! PLEASE! STOP!" cries Christina, letting go of Evangeline's arm and running to Raven pulling on his trousers. But none of them listened. Evangeline was still pointing Marcus's gun at me and Raven was still strangling Marcus as his face turns pale.
"PLEASE!"

Looking down to the side, Evangline gives a little "Tchh" before lowering her gun. But Raven stays the same, still strangling Marcus.
"Please, Raven!" begs Christina as her puppy eyes finally met his. It seemed like he finally gave into her. Dropping Marcus as he scrambles on the ground taking deep breaths.
"I think I saw my life flash before my eyes."

Christina turns to face me with her swollen eyes from all the crying.
"You'll promise us that you won't hurt Judar right?"
I stared at her as she stares back at me while Marcus stares up at me, waiting for an answer, "Are you going to say yes? or no?"

"Forget it Christina, these guys would do anything for money. Especially the amount of money that your father is giving them." says Raven patting her shoulders as her eyes widened with fear, once again.
"HOW MUCH?!" she screams at Marcus as he tries to control his breathing.
"About five thousand or so."
My body was stunned. FIVE THOUSAND?! That amount of money could feed us for more then a year!
"But," he adds using the side of the bathtub to stand up.
"Lets make a deal, how about you tell us more about this 'Judar' and we won't lay a hand on him. For now"

Christina, Raven and Evangeline all look at each other. It seemed like they didn't know how to reply to that. Raven scratched his head, Christina looks down to the ground and plays with her feet while Evangeline crosses her arms with her eyes closed in deep thoughts. Suddenly she sighs.
"Its a deal, but you'll have to keep it from the old man."
Marcus grins as he stands up only to fall back to the ground.
"MARCUS!" I scream running to his motionless body.He's out cold. 
"Shit"  mumbles Raven looking away. "Must've stopped the oxygen going to his brain"

"Well, NO SHIT" I snapped, lifting him up with both my hands, carrying him like a princess before throwing him onto the bed.
"Sorry" Raven apologizes with a smile. I almost fainted when he smiled. Yes, it was my first time seeing him smile. But he went from hot, to fucking delicious.
"So about Judar..." starts Evangeline but I start to drift off into my lala land, staring at Raven. But he doesn't notice my stare, cause well, I don't have eyes. All most lost in thoughts I could hear Evangeline calling for my name.
"TESLA!"
"YES?!?!" I replied snapping out of my little lala land.
"Did you hear what we just said?" Raven asks raising his eyebrows as he leans onto the the drawers staring at me as I sit down onto the bed next to Marcus, trying to avert his eyes.
"Were you day dreaming?" Christina asks as she plays with her little rag doll.
"Maybe..." 

"Well MAYBE, we should just explain everything after Marcus wakes up." sighs Evangeline as she rubs her temple.

"RAVEN!!" calls a deep voice from outside of the room. Raven takes a deep breath and stands up walking to the door brushing his hair back with his fingers trying to hold it back, but it falls back to the front. Frustrated, he licks his hand and uses his... saliva. To hold his hair back up. As delicious as he is, he still is a teenage boy.
"I need to go, the old man is calling" calling back to us as he exits the room.
"Guess we have to go as well" says Evangeline as she signify's me to come with her.

"WAIT! WHAT ABOUT MARCUS?! IS HE GOING TO STAY IN MY ROOM?!" yells Christina running up to us. Evangeline and I just look at each other.
"Yup."
