Chapter 7

(Brittany's POV)

In the middle of night I was woken by a tapping on the window. Thinking it was Gunther or Shadow wanting to come it I got out of bed and pulled open the balcony doors to see no one was there.

I was about to go back inside when I was hit in the forehead with something small, hard, and sharp.

"Ouch." I half whispered while rubbing where -what I think was a stone- hit.

"Sorry." I heard someone whisper from outside.

I crept to the edge of the balcony and looked down into the blackness of the night. Something nudged the back of my calf making me jump a bit and I turned around to see it was only Destiny so I relaxed.

I went back to searching for the source of the apology but I didn't have to look for very long because a flam soon illuminated the area.

I looked closely at where the flam was coming from it looked like a hand!? I trailed down the hand along the arm to be greeted by that gorges I mean devious face.

"Damien!? What on earth?"

"You put out my fire earlier to day did you not?" he accused more than anything.

"Yep!" I popped the 'p'.

"How your only new and don't have your powers yet? Right?" he asked, a puzzled look spread across him face.

"Yep and yep! I don't have my powers yet but ever heard of team work!"

"Alright, alright! Just come down here so you to show me."

I hesitated deciding weather to get my wings up now and fly down or jump and get them later.

"Just jump already!" Damien order impatiently.

Well that answers that question. I stood up on the edge of the balcony and jumped. Wind changed around me, I closed my eyes as I started to drift down to the ground like a leaf in the autumn.

I was once again caught in a pair of muscular arms.

"Hey babe." He said and giving me a nod.

"Hey." I said finding the situation a bit awkward.

"So you going to show me how you put out my fire this afternoon?" he asked in his mesmerizingly husky, mid deep voice. SNAP OUT OF IT BRITT!!!!

"Are you gonna put me down?" I sassed back.

"Oh yeah sorry your just so light I forgot you were still in my arms." Oh my god is he trying to hit on me?!?!

"Aw ain't you sweet." I teased.

"Yep!" he praised himself. Sheesh!

"Ok well let's get on with this shall we?"

"Yeah lets!"

A cute fox came running out of the woods and stood beside Damien.

"Oh yeah this is Zain my fire fox." he said gesturing to the red fox sitting next to him.

Zain snarled at Destiny and she snarled back.

"Zain come on. Our power's stronger with our pets." Damien explained briefly before he turned to the nearest tree and set our his hands in front of him and the tree steadily was set alight.

You could see a red power link running between Damien and Zain.

"Well.?!" Damien questioned.

Oh right! I closed my eyes and imagined my wings.
