Shift

Chapter 13: Part 2/2

Sorry for the late update, people! I think I'm a little carried away with writing my other book!

Oh no! I hid behind a tree and changed into and shapeshifter then teleported to the city. The apartment. I looked everywhere. I followed the trail that led from the city to the house. Nothing! Then it came to my mind. The clatter. The clatter that I heard while I was gathering supplies! It must be the sound of the diamond falling to the ground.

I teleported around the entire forest. NOTHING! How could I be so irresponsible! But of course. When I dropped it, someone must have found it and taken it. I shouldn't let Alex know. I turned into my form and walked to the trade place, forcing a smile.

Alex got up. "I'm gonna go spread the word about the trade place. You stay here and. Do the selling."

"I'm coming with you." Said Steve. He pushed me out of the way. (So mean!) And exited the trade place with Alex then walked around the endless field talking with people about the place. Visible through the window was a blond man man wearing all black was walking toward the trade place. There was a familiar glint in his hand.

Interrupting your reading again! Important stuff coming up! STAY FOCUSED!

He walks through the door and set his fist on the counter. "How much nether quartz can I trade for a diamond?" His voice was thick. He placed a diamond on the counter. I stood behind the counter, frozen in shock. The diamond had a gold plate on the back, and was decorated with emeralds and a prismarine crystal in the middle of the gold plate.

"You took it!" I shouted. "That is mine! I lost it! You can't just pick anything from the ground. Your actions disgust me! Better, you disgust me!" I jumped over the counter so I wasn't behind it anymore. I tried to snatch the diamond from him, but he swiftly moved his arm away. "Sorry, finders keepers!"

I gave him an icy stare. "Two can play dirty."
"Sure! I love that game! Can I play?" I slapped him. Not the smartest way to react, but I slapped him. "Then we'll play it the hard way." I snapped.

I changed into an enderman and he seemed really shocked. Suddenly, a wolf came in through the door, and the man gave him a paper. The wolf ran off. I knocked the man over. While he tried to reach for the bow that was slung over his shoulder, I took it and all the arrows. I shot him repeatedly in his chest with it. His body instantly relaxed. I knew he was dead.

There, my first murder. Unlucky. I changed into myself, grabbed the diamond and stuffed it into my pocket. I needed to wash my hands. His warm blood trickled down my hands. Disgusting. It was so sticky. But that wasn't my biggest concern. Suddenly, about a dozen men and women, all dressed in the same clothing as the man who stole my diamond marched into the trade place.

A man who seemed to be the leader pointed at me and shouted: "Seize the shapeshifter!" He snatched the bow and arrows from me and I screamed. Five of them kept me from resisting the leader while he moved me toward the door. I thrashed and tried to escape their grasp, their fingers digging into my skin.

I screamed again, kicking at the leader, knocking him to the ground. He signaled for them to stop holding me, and pulled me violently to the ground with him. He put his left foot above my stomach and took out a small glass bottle from his pocket. It was filled with a pale green liquid. This wasn't good. I tried to knock it out of his hand, but he pressed harder onto my stomach, making me feel like throwing up.

"I knew we would need this thing." He said.

He removed the cork from the bottle, and gave me a grin. Right then, a hand punched the man's face, but was instantly pulled backwards. I looked behind the man. Alex was the one who punched the man. She was being pulled by the men and women and Steve was trying to free her with an iron sword. He cut off the arm of the woman who was preventing Alex from moving.

"Cecilia!" Alex shouted. "What's going on!"

"I will explain everything later!" I say, avoiding the potion from entering my mouth. "Right now, we just fight!"

I saw the bow that the man took from me next to him. I signaled for Alex to take it. She took it, then shot the man at the back of his head right before the potion entered my mouth. He fell forward onto his face, obviously dead. Now we still got a lot to fight. Then I remembered. My diamond sword that I brought from the world that I spawned in was in the house. I changed into an enderman, Alex's mouth was dropped open at the moment, and I teleported to the house. I searched my room. Under the bed. Nope. It was in my chest. I got it and teleported back. Then I changed into my self.

Alex still had her mouth open. "How did- how did you-how?"
I smiled. " I said I will explain everything later."

A woman with brunette hair was running at me, her face twisted with anger. "THAT WAS THE ONLY PERSON IN MY LIFE THAT TRULY CARED ABOUT ME!"

I grinned."Why would I care? By the way he was just about to kill me, if you had noticed." I said, dodging the arrow she shot.

"And so will I!" She screamed. She tried to sink another arrow into my stomach, but I blocked the shot with my sword. I jumped on top of her. I bit my lip. I don't want to be a murderer. A heartless murderer. The poor lady had her face streaked with tears, and the blood of the man who Alex shot.

I was spending to much time pitying her that I didn't notice what was going around me. She kicked me off, and fired an arrow. I dodged it, but not right on time. It skimmed the surface of my left arm, leaving a huge area of skin removed. It was either me or her alive. I bet you already guessed what I chose. I stabbed her chest with the sword, and she crumpled backwards. I removed the sword to find it awfully covered in blood. And so was I.

I fought of another two, and Alex and Steve fought of the rest. I had got another wound in my right leg. It was deeper, but I didn't bother it much.

By the time we had everyone killed, not that we are killers or anything, we were just defending ourselves, Alex asked,"What was that all about?"
