The Half-blood Chronicles

Chapter seven

I never thought that my loud and strange self would love such a calm and cute little place. It didn't have things that spoke out, which was good because it wouldn't remind me of the ginger-traitor. Who had a personality so similar to me, so its nice. 'Evren who are you on the phone to?' Maria asked my boyfriend in confusion. 'Oh? Its just my little sister, Danae' He smiled thinly. I nodded at the both of them, While Maria curled up into a ball on the bed me and her would share, because i do love Evren, but i ain't trynna get cooties by sharing bed with  him. Evren went of into his room at that moment, so he could have peace to check up on his siblings. I turned of the lights and bolted to the bed. I hadn't slept properly in ages, so it was good to actually feel myself falling asleep. But of course that didn't happen, because the god of nightmares was like; "Oh! Yeah, I'm just gonna go and confuse this person who's on a quest to save me and my friends". The scene switched from a blurry view of me and Marias bedroom, to the forest i'd started dating Lydia. Mitchell stood theere with a familiar woman and an unfamiliar group. Thats when it hit me, Evrens mum and sister didn't die, they'd been taken hostage. I could tell that Alethea was the teen girl as she looked like a female version of Evren. Except she had sky blue eyes instead of his dark ones. The woman had unkempt waves of rich brown hair that went to her elbow. Her eyes were Electric blue, and she held a look of disappointment towards her younger son. While Alethea just looked angry with her brother. 'Honey, i know that your upset, but that doesn't mean you become a villian and take your family hostage' Emma craggs attempted to tame her son. It made me giggle, because of how she phrased it. A guy dressed in all black and a mask came forth with another girl, who appeared to be around 14, short black hair...familiar, oh my gods, Mitchell had taken my cousin hostage. Marias little brother was there as well, proving what they were doing and a guy i didn't recognize was led on to the little platform and made to sit beside Emma. 'Em? Its me, Keith' He whispered to her. Emmas mouth opened in shock. From what i remember from the last time Emma spoke of her husband, his name was Keith. I put the pieces and was unsurprised by the fact that this was most likely Evrens dad. He looked more like Mitchell, with curly hair and mischievous brown eyes. Speaking of Mitchell, he looked guilty of taking his military father hostage, but seemed to put the thoughts aside. Actually, Mitchell looked utterly terrified of what he had done. I don't think he thought through his actions before hand, so hes only realizing the possible outcomes for this now. Because he took my cousin hostage, i am not going to care! Luckily, i was waken just as a scream erupted in the dream. Maria stared down at me. 'Theres people here to see you'.

I honestly didn't expect to see azalea, Perseus, Cameron and Cecil at the door. It was obvious Maria and Evren didn't either. We all sat around the kitchen table, except Perseus who was making tea to calm his nerves. I explained my nightmare to them, while they wrote down theories and plans. I felt like the ceo of a large company holding a meeting, It felt weird as heck. Evren and Perseus swapped places, so Evren could make his legendary nutella donuts while Perseus quietly sipped his tea. Azalea was currently planning how to get the hostages to safety without going along with Mitchell and Lucianos plans. Perseus hugged Cameron closely, while Cecil comforted her. Maria was silently slumped in her chair. She was shocked by the kidnapping of her brother, by the way his name is Lucas, you may have forgotten but he was one of the warriors that joined Moons army a week after me. Lucas was pretty cool, and really hot. His hair is wavy and black, kind of going to one side, and he has the same dark skin tone and brown eyes as Maria. The reason behind Camerons sobs was that it turns out that her grandparents who had raised her were also taken hostage, along with her 9 year old brother, Callum. Yeah, he was also one of the newly added soldiers. Perseus was angrily slurping his tea as his brother had been taken hostage. Azalea was silent, but it was obvious that someone she cared about had been taken as well. It had happened to all of us, Especially Evren. He was ecstatic about the news that his mum and sister were still alive, but worried at the fact that there lives were being threatened. The more i thought about it, the more i realized. 'Maybe we should get sleep' Cecil looked up from a crying Cameron. 'Yeah, we'll eat the donuts tomorrow' Evren smiled as he put them in a little box. I kissed him on the cheek before speeding out of the room. Perseus threw some device into the girls shares bedroom, that turned into an extra bunk-bed. Cameron and azalea would share the bunk-bed. While me and Maria would share the bed we had shared the night before. I flopped down on my bed, falling asleep instantly. Which i regretted almost immediately, as the nightmares hit me, and i was engulfed in another episode of evil. I was standing in a room, two people were sitting at a small table, talking about....me?. Then i noticed the scar on the feminine figures' hand. Lydia, i realized. 'Your plan is working, Zelda and Maria are really falling for the huge impression of Mitchell being the traitor' She cackled. Gods, did i make a traitor mix-up again? I really hope i didn't do that again. 'Lydia Blair, the potion will be completed within 9 days time, you must hurry in getting Cameron Winch's blood' the second person aka Queen Crazy, stated, seemingly smirking. 'Yes, Sadie, i have already tracked her down. As long as she wears her charm, the device shall lead me straight to her. I have one on Zelda aswell' Lydia cackled with delight. Then i woke up.
