Shadowraven grabbed Rose and her luggage. "Do you really need all of this?" he asked the trembling girl. She nodded and smiled, trying hard to not look afraid. She was failing, since Shadowraven could see her shaking and could sense the fear coming off of her, almost like a wave.
He grabbed the luggage and used the shadows to take it outside. He looked out the window and saw the luggage lying there. "Let's go" he told Rose. Rose shook her head. "I want an explanation, about who or what ever you are" she demanded. Shadowraven stared at her. He sighed.
"Okay, do you remember that kid in your fifth and sixth period? The one that was always quiet and reserved but you talked to him?" he asked. Rose nodded. "That's Azriel. Have you been stalking us?" she replied. Shadowraven took of his shadow mask. Rose gasped. "Hi Rose" was all he said. Rose slowly got up and walked towards him. "No way..." she breathed out. "Rose, you have to come with me. Now" he said.
Before she could ask, Shadowraven picked her up and ran towards the window. He jumped out, then fell. Before hitting the ground, he thought of wings and they appeared. He spread them and glided to the ground. Rose was still screaming as they landed. "Rose, it's over. You can stop screaming now" he said. He set her down gently, holding her steady in case she fell. Her knees buckled and she fell. Shadowraven caught her.
"So no travel for you at the moment..." he said. He slung Rose over his shoulder. "Why didn't you tell me before that thing attacked?" Rose asked Shadowraven. He stopped, then sighed. "Rose, you're a Descendant of a hero from the old day. That Minotaur was sent to kill us both. He's a hunter" Shadowraven explained calmly. "I don't go by Azriel anymore. I'm Shadowraven, in honor of my ancestors, who all had the word shadow in their name" he told her.
Rose simply nodded. "You had visions too, didn't you? Of those random people?" she asked. Shadowraven nodded. "Mostly Shadow and a woman" he said. "I saw my ancestor. Fatewatcher. She was a magician. Her specialty was light magic" Rose said. "She was always around a man" she said. Shadowraven stopped walking again. "Do you think our ancestors knew each other?" he asked.
