Love Is Hard (Book 2 to My Ssundee)

Favors

~Enderlox's POV~

I jump into the end portal quickly without a second thought. Hitting the endstone I make my way to the middle where Father is waiting for me.

"Is it done?" He asks as soon as I step on the obsidian platform.

"Yes Father, Seto Sorcerer is dead. Killed by his own friend, how sad." I smirk, thinking about how proud Father must be right now.

"Very good, I will alert him." He tells me, flying off somewhere.

I don't understand why he wanted him dead, but whatever the reason. He's dead now.

I fly off to a specific tower and enter through a door located at the bottom. I open the door to my bedroom and quickly jump into my bed, laying on my back, I stare up at the ceiling. I slowly close my eyes and try to sleep, but before I do, my telephone rings. (A/N An old phone not something like a smart phone...or what my dad calls them dumb phones...) I answer the phone to stop the annoying ringing sound it makes, also because someone is actually calling me.

"Hello?" I ask the person on the other end of the line.

"Hello, is this Enderlox?" A male voice answers.

"Why yes, it is. Who is this may I ask?" I question him.

"That is not important, but I do need a favor from you."

"What kind of favor?"

"I'll tell you the details later, but I need to know if you accept." He explains.

"Hm...What's in it for me?"

"I don't know, what do you want?" He asks.

"Well, there's this girl I have a small crush on and...if I help you, you must help me get her." I say confidently.

"A girl, what's her name?" He laughs.

"Penguin."

~Summer's POV~

I keep running as fast as I can, not even looking back, but I knew someone was following me.

"Summer stop running! You're running too fast!" I hear the person yell behind me.

I keep running, ignoring them until I unfortunately trip and fall. The person trips over me.

"Squishy!" Penguin.

"Why did you follow me, usually when a person runs away they want to be left alone." I try to get out from under her.

"I followed you to make sure you were okay, and who's Shadow?" She asks rolling off me and sitting up.

I sit up to look at her, "I'm fine, and Shadow is our sister...have you ever heard of a shadow creature?"

Penguin nods her head, "That's what she is, she....died a long time ago."

"I'm sorry Squishy." She hugs me tightly.

"Thanks, but it's not your fault so you shouldn't be sorry." I laugh.

"I know, but I'm sorry that happened to you." She squeezes me.

"Ow, Its okay....can I...breath....now...?"

"Oh, sorry." She lets go of me and I inhale a bunch of air, my sides start hurting as I slowly exhale.

"Why hello there ladies, what are two pretty girls like you doing out here all alone?" A voice says.

Penguin and I look around to see where it came from, but can't find the owner, the voice sounding like it came from everywhere.

"So sorry, I have forgotten that you could not see me, is this better dear?" A figure appears under a tree.

I could tell it was a male but his body looked like he was covered in shadows so I couldn't see him.

"Who are you?" Penguin asks the stranger.

"The name is Sshadee, and what are your names?" Sshadee steps out of the shadows so we can see him better.

Sshadee looks exactly like Ian except his usual blue shirt is a dark red color

Sshadee smirks aand watches us closely as we both stand quietly.

"My names....Summer...." I tell him nervously.

"My names Penguin! Yay friendship!" She yells excitedly.

I facepalm at her, "Seriously?"

She nods her head really fast, Sshadee laughs at us so we both look at him.

"It is very nice to meet you two." As soon as he says that he instantly disappears only to reappear beside me.

He looks at me and tilts his head in confusion, "Usually when I do that people run screaming."

"I'm use to that, I had a sister like that so...yeah." Sshadee nods in understanding, then looks at Penguin for an explanation.

"I'm a Penguin." Penguin says nonchalant putting her hand up. Sshadee looks at me confused.

"Don't ask, she's just weird." I tell him.

"Right..." He says.

"So...Sshadee....what are you doing here exactly?" I ask him.

Sshadee smiles and disappears again but his voice echos as he talks, "I am here to keep an eye on someone."

"Who?" Penguin asks spinning around in circles to try and find him.

This dood is creepy....

"I do not think you can call me creepy till you have gotten to know me." Sshadee says appearing behind Penguin who screams when she sees him.

"I don't appreciate you reading my mind ya know!" I retort.

Sshadee shrugs as he walks around me, staring at us.

"How did you do that!?" Penguin waves her hands in the air as she yells.

"Well, I am a shadow...." He explains.

"Obviously." I state crossing my arms.

Sshadee smirks looking at me, "Someone has an attitude."

"Yeah, whatever. Who are you 'watching' exactly?" I ask.

"Two people actually, Seto and my brother." He answers.

"Who's your brother?" Penguin asks.

"You can not tell?" He says like it's obvious.

I think about it for a moment, then all of a sudden it hits me. Ian. "Ssundee?"

Sshadee smiles and nods, disappearing afterwards. "Yes, Ian is my brother...unfortunately he thinks I am only a evil clone or something....long story."

"I'm sorry...maybe you should tell him?" I ask.

"I would love too, but I do not think that is such a good idea as I have done some....detrimental things." He explains.

"Like what?" I ask, curiosity getting the better of me.

"Other than the horrible things I have done in the past...I hurt Seto...I am the reason he fell down the stairs." He reappears and looks down at the ground with regret, sighing he looks back up at us.

"Well, if you feel that bad about it maybe you should apologize? Maybe you will have a chance to talk with Ian too!" I yell grabbing his arm and pulling his towards the direction of the house, Penguin following behind us.

"W-wait, no!" He yells trying to yank his arm out of my grip but fails.

"I don't see why you're so afraid to talk to him." I walk a little faster.

"I am not afraid!" He yells still trying to get away.

I roll my eyes and continue walking.
