Spread your wings

Chapter 3

I looked at Hunter. His hair was black and his eyes stood out. He was almost like Sam from Shiver.

His eyes.

Were yellow.

Like mine.

"Astyr?,'' Logan vaved a hand infront of my face. I then realised I was staring at Hunter. Hunter gave me a knowing smile. I blushed and looked at Logan - Leo. Whatever.

"Miss Mia asked me to sing for her,'' I said. Logan nodded.

"Of course she would, you're talented. Speaking of talented, you should hear Hunter on the guitar. He's talented,'' Logan said, fist bumping Hunter.

Hunter.

What a weird name.

"I was wondering if Hunter could join our band,'' Logan continued. I nodded. 

"Sure, that's be good. You wouldn't have to keep switching from drums to guitar,'' I agreed.

"Cool. Both of you come to mine after school. We can jam in the garage. Mum will be home though,'' Logan said. I nodded. "What's your subject now?,'' Logan asked me.

"Math,'' I said. Logan smiled. "What? you know I hate math because I have Eric and the shitties,'' I said, angry at him.

"Hunter has math. Eric and his 'shitties' won't bother you with Hunter around,'' Logan said. 

I had to agree. Hunter's build would beat  Eric to he's dust. "And.. um... I have something... to um...  tell you later... um... at my house,'' Logan said, nervously. I wonder what this is about. Logan is never nervous. His cocky attitude got him all the sluts but thank god he didn't go for them. I nodded.

"Sure.'' Logan smiled.

"Cool, see you both later,'' He said and ran off to next period.

I turned to Hunter. "So, is Hunter your real name?,'' I asked. He smiled.

"You are actually the first person to ask me that,'' He said. I just realised that this is the first time I heard his speak. His voice sent chills down my spine.. In a good way..

"So?,'' I urged.

"No, it's not. But I don't use my first name. At all. No one knows it. My parents threw me on the street when I was five and then they were put in jail for child abuse so... No one knows actually,'' He said.

"Oh. I'm so sorry. I-.''

"Don't worry about it,'' He said. He smiled. "I hate them any-,'' He was cut off my Eric.

"What? You're still alive?,'' Eric asked me, taking no knowledge of Hunter. He instantly punched me in the stomach and I fell to the ground, gasping for breath.

I looked up, ready for another blow, but instead I see Hunter taking out Eric. His shittied were on the ground around him. I watched as Hunter punched Eric in the nose and Eric fell to the ground.

Hunter walked over to me. ''Are you OK?,'' He asked, just as I blacked out.

----------------------------------------------------------

I woke up in an unknown house. "Where am I?,'' I asked into blackness. I snorted. "I feel like i'm in a fucking scary movie,'' I said to myself.

I then heard someone walk in. I searched sor my pocket knife which wasn't there. I could litterally hear my heart banging in my chest. I slipped out of bed and got into a defensive position, ready for an attack. I couldn't see anything so I relied on my other senses and my seventh sense.

Karate.

I'm no expert but i'm a black belt. It took me 10 years to get to the level I am. Mum and dad wouln't pay for me so I had to pay for myself. 

It turns out all the heard work paid off when my attacker threw a much at me. I dodged and sweeped their legs. They fell to the ground but scrambled up again before I could d anything else. Aimed for my face, my oponent did a side kick which i easily blocked and hit themback into the stomach. They fell to the floor, groaning in pain. It's a guy. 

"He was right. It is you,'' He said to me. I'm confused.

Just as I was about to jump on him and tie him up to see who he is, he scrmbled away and out the door.

Who was that?

I saw a light from under what I presume is a door and walked to it. I was about to open it when Hunter did.

He jumped back. "Oh, I didn't know you were up,'' He said. I nodded. 

"I am. Someone just attacked me and went out through the window,'' I started. "Anmy idea who it was?,'' I asked.

He looked shocked. "I do but I can't tell you. Plus we have to go to Logan's,'' He said, pulling my arm. I was unwillingly pulled into his car and we drove to Logan's.
