Awakened

Ch 4

***

My stomach was running around in circles as my anxiety decreased. Afriel pulled me up to take me to my room but I pulled away. If you think I am gonna sleep now you're definitely crazy!" I stood up shakily and muttered. "What do I do?"

***

I stared at her. "Nothing, we wait.......Come, I want to show you something." I went into my room and straight to my wardrobe. I went in and came out with a pure white book with the heading How to fly for beginner angels "A angels including Half bloods gets wings when they awaken. It's a great feeling to fly. So when you get your wings we can fly together". I tossed her the book and she opened the front page. "What does it mean The weight of your deeds determine the colour of your wings?" "It means If you have too much bad sins, your wings will grow pure black. We call them the rebellions. If you have a lot of good deeds you grow pure white wings. We are called the Order, the order never interferes with the rebellion. So if you are a rebellion. I won't be able to help you. You will be on your own.

***

I gulp. I had never done any horrible sins, but if I was somehow a rebellion... I would be alone. "Is there an inbetween colour?" I ask, my voice shaking

***

"Ha, you wish. You have been reading too many books you know, now go. I want to sleep"

***

My eyes widen, "No! Wait..." I look at her my voice small and innocent like a babies. I look at the time and choke on my spit. "Afriel, It's 11:55!"

***

"I KNOW GO AWAY I WANT TO SLEEP, 2 DAYS FROM NOW YOU AWAKEN AND tomorrow IS SCHOOL. And........tomorrow AT SCHOOL is the best dress day. So get up early" With that I went to bed and fell asleep

***

"What!!" I was absolutely oblivious to the fishiness in her tone. I crept silently back to my room, cautious of my surroundings. Footsteps rushed behind me and I swerved around. No one was there. I whimper and ran faster the ever to Afriel's room. Suddenly a pale hand clasps around my mouth and her other arm wraps itself around my stomach. I push and shout and cry, but the creature slowly dragged me away.

***

I heard muffled noises outside my door so I quickly ran out still in my nightgown. As I ran out I saw a boy around our age. Hand claps around Georgia's mouth the other holding a knife to her throat. I gasped. One thing for sure, he was not a hunter "Who Are you" I said barely a whisper

***

I struggled against his will as the blade cut lines through my neck. I limped in his arms and felt the blood trickle down my throat. Couldn't Afriel just kill him with her powers or something? Why was she reasoning?

***

Who is he? I kept thinking. I then saw the blood on Georgia's throat. I took the risk. With a flick of my writs the knife came out of his hand and into my outstretched arms. I then Muttered words under my breath making him obedient. IN other words he can't move. Georgia noticed and ran to my side. "Who Are you and what are you doing here?" I said more confidently and sternly

***

I whimpered and hid behind Afriel like a little girl as I cried, tears racing down my cheek and blood trickling down my throat and onto my nightgown. I let Afriel do all the talking

***

"Afriel?" The boy said barely a whisper. I looked at Georgia and she looked at me. "Do I know you" I said sternly. "Stop trying to avoid the question, who are you and why are you here?"

The boy looked familiar to me. He was tall, slim and good looking. Bright blue eyes. OMG It can't be I thought. Tyler. I still was not certain. "I was told that if I captured her" he pointed at Georgia "They will give me $20000, I don't know why they won't her. Though. Who are you?" I could tell what he meant. How I could magically take his knife and hold him still. "What's your name?" I said hoping it was not Tyler. "Tyler" He said And my jaw dropped*

***

My vision went woozy and I felt drunk from pain. Whenever I was in pain I would always make things awkward. "Do you know him because ..." Even I knew telling her was a bad idea. The clear affection must have been showing clearly on my face as Tyler grinned at me. I went bright red and stood up straight, accidentally falling backwards on my backside.

***

Tyler smirked and I went to help up Georgia. "What did they look like, the one who told you to get her Tyler" I said frustrated. "Make this quick, I still want to sleep" I added

***

I shivered in the cold of my nightgown, listening intently as Tyler exclaimed, "A hierarchy in the Order court. I was called along with 5 others... they need to perform tests that may result in... injuries." He said this with complete ease and I shuddered. "Please don't take me there..."

***

"No one is going anywhere" I said angrily."Now do you promise not to harm either of us during the night?, If so Sleep on the couch, i'm going to bed" And with that I went back in my room and onto my bed. I grabbed a box from under my bed and pulled it out. In it Was a picture. I took it out and looked at it. It was Tyler and I cuddled together under a tree with snow in our hairs. That made me cry and I went to bed.
