The forsaken (Rainimator book4)

oh dear

POV Kyle

I finally shook myself awake. the water was nearly gone which was nice, I stood up and brushed myself down. I saw a group gathered by the door. Shizuku, Andrew, Alex and Sheila, I walked over to them. "Oh great the emotionless bitch is back," I said looking at Sheila. 

"YOU!" I heard someone growl. I turned to face someone in a purple hoodie with blond hair. 

"Sorry, but who are you?" I asked.

the man growled and charged at me. a pair of white glowing axes in his hands. the red shield appeared to block him from hitting me, I pulled the katana off my back and went to strike back, but found my feet frozen in place by ice. 

I smashed the katana into the ice to try and breakthrough it. "Should we help him?" Shizuku asked. 

"No," Sheila answered coldly. 

"Bitch," I mumbled as the man broke through the shield. I readied my sword to fight when someone in a black coat with an ugly scarf got in the way. 

"WILLIAM WAIT!" he said getting between us. Why did I know this person? 

"Charlie move! All the pain he caused us! why is he still alive?" William asked.

I couldn't remember what I had done but it was bad enough that this person was ready to kill me on site. "He's changed, we all have," Charlie said. 

"Yeah he can be a jerk but you don't need to hurt him," Meeps said. 

POV Charlie

William almost immediately stopped his assault on Kyle and turned to Meeps, his eyes said it all before he said. "Did that red panda just talk?" he asked. I nodded. "Okay, I think someone who isn't those two is going to have to catch me up," He said pointing at Shiela and Alex. 

I nodded. "Come on, I'll catch you up, hay how are you even here?" 

William shrugged. "Not a clue, I just kinda woke up in the field of snow," he answered. 

"Hmmm, and how did you find your way here?" I asked. 

William held up a black box. "This thing led me to you," He said.

"This isn't over!" everyone turned to the door. Lilith walked out. she was hurt but still gripping her dagger. 

William went wide eyes. "Is that your sister?!" he asked. 

"Yep, and she's murderous," I answered. 

William sighed. "That seems to track," he answered. 

"Oh great, it's one of the idiots," Lilith said. 

"Can you narrow down who you're talking about?" Sheila asked.

"All of you!" Lilith yelled. 

William raised his axe. "Come on then, you want a fight? well, you've got one," he said swinging his axe. 

Lilith smiled. "Fine then, let's make it fair shall we," Lilith raised her hands and we all froze unable to move everything but our eyes. 

William looked back at us, then at Lilith. Lilith charged and swiped her dagger, William jumped back and brought his down slicing into Lilith's arm, she grabbed his arm and then stabbed into his hand.

William summoned his arcane axe and sliced at Lilith's leg and froze her dagger in a block of ice. William punch her, and she kicked him. one of the red portals opened and William accidentally tackled her through. the portal closed. 

we could move again. I was in shock. "NO, no, I've only just gotten him back," I mumbled. I shook myself. "okay. so I need someone to catch me up," I said.
