DARK HUMAN

Chapter Five

As Luna pulls into her driveway, she shuts off the vehicle, and sits in her car, and sees Kyle cooking through the kitchen window. With her sitting there for a few moments and watching him, she waits for him to turn around, and wave to her, but he doesn't pay any attention to her. Seeing that she's not getting his attention, she then opens the car door, and leans over to the passenger side floor, and grabs the crystal ball off the floor. Placing the crystal ball under her arm, she then grabs the books, and gets out of the car. As she walks to the front door with her hands full, he opens the door, and then walks back over to the stove without saying anything to her. And with her carrying the items into the house, she looks over at him, and says, "That smells good. What are you cooking?"

"I'm cooking eggs and bacon. You want some?" he asks, as he turns around with a spatula in his hand. As he walks up to her, he smiles with Geo's smile, and gives her a kiss on the lips. With him slowly pulling back from the kiss, he then asks, "What do you have there? How was The Raven?"

"The Raven was good. I visited Victoria. She gave me these books and this large crystal ball. These books look old don't they," she says, as she stares at Kyle's face, as Geo's smile fades. As he walks back over to the stove, she then walks into the living room, and puts the books and crystal ball on the coffee table, and then says, "What are you doing today?"

"I'm not doing too much. I'm just going over to Tim's for a little bit. He made me some fishing lures," he says, as he turns the stove off. Putting his eggs and bacon on his plate, he then walks into the living room with his plate of food. As he sits on the couch, and puts his plate of food on the coffee table, he then looks at Luna, and then the stuff, and then asks, "What are the books about?"

"I'm not sure what they're about. She gave me a couple of them to read though. One of the books are Magic 101. I'm sure it's just the basic, such as what are certain crystals are supposed to mean, the purpose of using incense, and the meaning of life," she says, as she gets up and puts them on the bookshelf. As she walks back over to the couch, she then sits back down, and moves the crystal ball in the center of the coffee table, and looks at Kyle and then asks, "When will you be back from Tim's?"

"I'll be back shortly," he says, as he gets up. and walks into the kitchen with his empty plate. As he puts his plate in the sink, he then grabs his keys off the kitchen counter, and then says, "Love you, Luna."

"Okay! Love you too!" she yells back, as he walks out the front door.

With him pulling out of the driveway, she looks out the window, and watches him drive down the road. And as he leaves her view, she then sits down in front of the crystal ball, and places her hand over it, and tries to read the energy around her, as Ivory opens the front door. As she walks into the house, she then sits down next to Luna, and looks at the crystal ball, and says, "That's a large crystal ball! Where did Kyle go? I just saw him leave."

"Yeah! No kidding this crystal ball is huge. Victoria just gave it to me," Luna says, as she puts her left hand over it again. As she puts her left hand a couple of inches above it, she then moves her hand all around it, and then says, "Kyle just went over to Tim's. He went to pick up some fishing lures."

"Really? Fishing, smishing. What else is new. Besides all that, what are you doing today?" Ivory asks, as she stares at the crystal ball, and then touches it with her right pointy finger.

"Hey! Don't touch the crystal ball. I'm trying to read the energy around me. The only one that is supposed to touch it is the owner. You'll break the energy," she says, as she lightly smacks her finger. As Ivory pulls her hand away, and shakes it, Luna then says, "And I'm not doing too much. Just hanging around the house."

"Okay! My bad. All you had to do is tell me. Geez! You didn't need to smack my finger," she chuckles, as she gets up and walks out into the kitchen. Opening the fridge, she takes out some leftovers, and then says, "Do you want to do something today?"

"I'm not sure what I want to do today. We could hang out here if you want," she says, as she gets up, and looks out the living room window, as Ivory sits on the barstool and eats at the island.

"Sounds like a plan to me," Ivory says, as Luna walks into the kitchen, and opens the fridge. As she makes a sandwich, she then sits down next to Ivory. With Ivory looking over at her, she then asks, "Did you get anything else from The Raven?"

"They gave me a couple of old magic books to read," Luna says, as she takes a bite of her sandwich. With her setting the sandwich on her plate, she then says, "They seem interesting."

"Oh yeah! What are they about?"

"They're just magic 101 stuff," she says, as she gets up, and puts her plate in the sink. As she walks back into the living room, she sits down, and turns on the television, and stares at the crystal ball. And as she sits there, she puts her hand on the crystal ball again, and parts of her dream comes back to her, while Ivory walks into the living room.
