The unknown

Chapter 26

POV Chloe

As i see Jayden drift away i am sniffing looking at him. He promised me so many things. He said it would be okay and we'll be back any minute. I kiss him again

"I love you" I say having a voice crack out of the pain.

I feel so hopeless

This will haunt me forever. I hate to look at his dead body instead of his beautiful soul.

I am losing everyone and everything around me. When i wipe my other tears I look up at Melanies body in the air. The chanting and the wind stopped, but she is still in the air .

I don't know what to do.

I stand up looking at Melanie's body in the middle of the room. I am wiping of the tears again and i get an idea in my mind all at once.

Melanie has to be here somewhere, I know it she wouldn't give up this quick.

I take a deep shaky breath an close my teary eyes as I try to concentrate .

I ignore the voices who are trying to talk to me looking for one voice. As I do my best I couldn't unhear them. with a whispering voice i hear them all say its too late and that's its the end.

I don't want to believe it. I hear a soft whisper hearing the panic in her voice.

"Chloe?"

I could feel my heart sink, It worked i never taught i would embrace the powers i got.

My eyes are sewed as I say "I'm here"

"Chloe?" the panicked voice repeats

"it's okay"

"It's too late, end it before she wins," Melanie's ghost says. The whispers are making our connection weak and before I can deny my eyes flash open.

My hands are shaking and I am panting insanely; Melanie's legs are becoming grey.

She's sucking out all Melanie's magic and energy. her feet become numb and the grey color is spreading all over her body.

I couldn't kill my best friend but I also couldn't let Cassandra finish the spell.

" I love you too baby" I hear going through my ears.

Feelings chills I hold in my breath when I hear a well-known man's voice say this. I could barely speak but the voice already left never coming back.

I look at Melanie again and shes almost fully grey.

With tears, I run outside looking for a metal staff I saw earlier next to Jayden's car.

I grab the staff and when i run back i slow down when I get to his car looking at it. When I pass it I start running again in the house. My heart is completely shattered as I throw the metal staff. I never thought I would activate or use my power because I always felt like it was useless.But now I am, The metal staff is in the air and I let out a groan while I feel my power exhausting me. The metal goes with full force once I let out a scream, the pole
going through her stomach. I hear a cry screaming no almost making my ears bleed.

She collapses on the ground with the metal still in her. I don't run to her I just simply look at her dead body. I can do nothing it ended

There is another mugged no.
And then it gets quiet.

Its quiet in the house the only thing you can hear is the wind getting in the home through my hair. And my loud breathing mixed with tears.

I am in the center of the living looking around. Everyone is dead why am I still alive? I slowly fall on my knees looking around remembering what Jayden told me. Its not going to be okay and we did need more supplies because we surely did not return. I loved being right but now I was not too fond of it. I wanted to be wrong for the first time.

I bury my face in my hands as I start sobbing again loud and clear. I can't do this anymore. I lost everyone I loved all the people who got me through so much and were with me through good and bad.

I wipe off my own tears while crying imagining Jayden did it. I am mentally so weak and tired. I hide my face crying standing in the middle of the house, filled with nothing more but memories.

This is not how I wanted it to be, It's over.

we had so many plans for the future.

I wish we never knew any of this
