Murdered by a saint.

A long time coming.

"Okay! Again, from the top!"

Releasing a heavy annoyed sigh I glare back at the man three feet away from me, his face drenched in a determind gaze.

"Oh don't get pissy with me! Just cause you can't do a simple task like this isn't my fault JC!" Winter yells from across the lakes edge.

"Oh bite me!" I scream back as I drag a long wet strand of hair from my sweating forehead, gazing down at my own tired expression in the lakes water I stand up to my knees in.

He sighs before stripping off his shirt and shorts before coming towrds the water, Glaring at me as I return the rude gesture with my middle finger. Of course he rolls his eyes before turning his eyes black as coal; You see after Stacy had told me Damon, of all people or creatures rather was her biological son it left my mind realing. As if I could honestly foucus on any of the tasks in my lessons with Winter while my maker is god knows where right now, and to make matters worse is the fct I could care less about what happens to him. All I want from him are answers, answers I can only get from him; and if that requires all this that I have to put up with, then so be it.

"Watch how a actual pro dose it." Winter says in his demonic voice, somthing I've grown so accusmed to that my only response is defiantly placing my hands on my hips and rolling my eyes at him. I reluctanly return my gaze at my instrutor as I feel the water around my body harden, and just like how quicksand may pull someone down into it's depths; he pulls it all back to himself. Incaseing himself in it, turning it black; and as if on cue once the once murkery lake water turned into a black cement; spikes poped around his cacon as if he was morphing into some kind of medevil wepon. Sadly though that wasn't the case, this wasn't a fighting stratgy, this was a defence tactic.

Yet even as the shild winter made as if it was as easy as trowing a stone, melted away back into spikless flimsy lake water. I still couldn't do it. Tried as I might, at the end of the day it wasn't that I couldn't do it. It was that I didn't want to do it.

Eventually Winter gave up and just told me, "Just go home and think this over JC." That left me in my room lazily staring up at the ceiling twiddling my skleton key and locket between my fingers. Contemplating what Winter was trying to get me to buy in his new tuff love act. Ever since I accused him of hurting Jennifer we've been nothing but cold to each other, as if some kind of wall of ice has been built up. Which in all honesty to an outsider looking in would seem ridiculus, I mean; Me? and Winter? Fighting? Just the notion of it could confuse anyone but it's true.

As of a week ago, it seems that we hate each other.

It seems as though even my indiferance toward Damon, my creator or whatever anyone wants to refer to him as for that matter, seems to even confuse myself. Looking back on when I first meet him him, in my new form I felt a twinge of loyalty towards him. But in all honesty once that woman, or.. I supose is aunt in this case took away our 'bond'.

I couldn't care any less about him if I tried, All I want are answers. But the only way to get those answers is from him; which is why I proposed the idea to Winter that I'd go and get him back. Though he and Stacy had already denied that idea countless times, saying that it was "To dangerous" made me want to learn how to defend myself in the first place.

Even though the whole point of me learning from Winter was to learn about how to use my abilitys to there full potental, I already knew he wasn't ever going to teach me any of wat I really wanted to know.

How to take a soul.

I remember it perfectly clear, Layala had told me once about how the angel in us alllowed us to take souls. How it steghtened us to enourmus strgnths; and after the third day passed o Damon's disapearance I finally had worked up the courage to ask Winter to teach me.

Curling my lower body up at the cringing memory, Listening to his faint shouting matching mine.

"I'LL NEVER TELL YOU THAT! DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME JC?! NEVER!"

"WHY THE FUCK NOT?!"

That's when he slammed me up against a tree so hard, it cracked down. It's falling sound of it's branches hitting the ground, and the loud thud it's trunk made once it made contact with the ground.

I remember looking into his eyes, he had this look of hurt mixed with utter disgust. We stayed that way for awhile, just me hanging from a tree. His hands wrapped tightly around my thraot with his never changing expression. Hurt and disgust just interchaning within themslves. It seemed never ending until he sighed and dropped me on the ground. He left witbout a single word, leaving me alone internally screaming and crying. The nver chaning feeling of Screaming and Crying; Scraming and crying interchaninging within themselfs. Never ending.

What felt like hours suddenly vanished in a mere matter of seconds when I heard a small knock, I looked over at my front door. Quickly walking over to it, to my utter suprise I slightly gasped.

"Am so sorry, was I interrupting somthing?" She kindly yet seemingly coldy whispered. Her words seemed to just echo inside my mid for  few minutits, just trying to process what she just said.

"O-Oh! No! Of course not, please come in Stacy." I speedily rushed away from the door frame, giving her entry into my small home. I watched her carfully observe my furniture, lazily dragging her finger across my counter and eventually sitting herself down on one of it's surrounding chairs. Properly perching her hands together ontop of her thighs in such  lady like mannor i made me rethink my actions a bit.

"Oh! Um can I get you anything?" I quickly rushed away from my spot into th kitchen rummaging around whatever Winter had left in the fridge that hadn't already spoiled.

"No No, that's quite alright." I heard her extremly posh voice clamly speak out from behind me.

"Oh, um okay." I quietly spoke as I slowly stepped away and closed the fridge. Turning around as I nerveusly palyed with the fridges door handle as I gazed at her.

A few minutes passed with her just slightly smiling as me and myself just nervously toying with the fridge behind me until she spoke up.

"Plaese, won't you sit JC?" She slyly ordered me as she patted the ajoining seat next to her. I sliently obloged and took the stool next to hers as she slowly spoke, clearing her thraot a bit as she did so.

"You see JC, Am here for a speific reason."

"Oh?" I stupidly responded

"Yes, You see it's come to my attention through one of your sisters Layla that her birth brother Winter isn't teaching you what you truley are ment to be learning."

"Oh, but um Layla and Winter aren't actully related.."

She glared at me before wickedly smiling, though her eyes still remined cold and hard. "Yes, well. even so if they were family before they were dead. Then we refer to them in this family as birth siblings. Though I belive your missing my point JC." She once again scolded me for chaning the subject.

I gulped in responce to her menicing look before she contiued with her explaintion. "The fact your not learning the correc crittera has made me a bit, agitted. Because you see, I don't enjoy wasting time JC. Since this has already been a waste of three weeks I'll make this easy for you." She finally concluded as she quickly took hold of my hands. Before I could even react I felt a lage spark ignighnt between ourselves, like a bolt of lightning striking a tree I was fried and left extremly fragile. As a result once her grip left mine, I had found myself lying on my kitchen floor. Fallen out of my own stool in my own house.

That, was the 'easy' way?? Easy for who exactly? 

"Ah, now wasn't that firey?" Stacy slightly chuckled above me. Looking down at me she slowly cruched down to my eye level.

"You see, now you just know how to do everything! Isn't that wonderful? How to borrow bodies, their souls and even there memories!"

Taking her small hand she grazed my left cheek, sending a chilling feeling throughout me.

"Don't worrry this will all be fine in a few hours," She concluded as she rose from my body making her way to my front door. "Until then JC." She called over her shoulder as my door shut behind her.
