"Thank you Josh for bringing Sam home, he's a mess" said Samuels mother.
"Still here you know" Sam said with an annoyed expression.
"Yep and still looking none the wiser"Josh replied with a smirk
"Josh can you help me bring Sam up to his room, he looks like he may fall over just standing " Samuels mother asked Josh politely
" Sure, but I'll have to go soon, I promised my mum I would be home in time to help make dinner" answered Josh.
Samuels mother and Josh helped Sam up the stairs, tripping once or twice, they dragged him up to his room as best they could. When they reached his door, identified with a dragon knocker who has its teeth around a metallic ring, the soft whispering of a feminine voice was muffled by the grunting of effort to push Sam through the door. This baffled Sam... there is a cyclone ripping through his brain making everything hazy and causing reality to blend with confusion.
Finally Samuel was lying down on his bed trying to determine where Josh and his mum were standing.
"So Sam when did you start to feel like this?" his mother enquired.
"When I got off the bus about 3.30" Samuel managed to say
"Ohh this is excellent..."Samuels mother said with excitment, but quickly corrected her self when Samuel gave her a ponderous look. His face said What the ?? "I mean that's awful dear "
"Thanks mum. I feel so supported " Samuel said sarcastically with what strength he had.
"Um, hate to break up this touching family moment, but I have to go" said Josh
"Of course I'll come with you and explain to your mother why you are late" said Miss Fae
"Thanks. That would save me having to scrub the house floors for the next month" Josh replied with enthusiasm.
"Yep. I'll just die quietly here alone. You know they say everyone dies alone" remarked Samuel
His mother just shook her head waving her bright red hair. Josh on the other hand just laughed at him, this was most amusing to him.
"Do you see Mont?" asked Avalon
"This proves nothing Avalon! I still don't perrmit you to link your self with him" yelled Mont
"Permit!?! I don't need your permission. It's my choice Mont. You are my brother not my father. Our father died long ago" replied an iritated Avalon.
"Our father is only dead because our ancestors were ignorant and arrogant. They said nothing about his choice of linking, they knew it was a risk but still did nothing. He died protecting a stupid human." exclaimed Mont
" We can't hold him responsible for anothers actions Mont. He's different from her, he has no knowledge of the dark arts" said Avalon
" YOU WANT TO DESTROY YOUR EXISTENCE? FINE!!. Drag our family through the mud again" yelled Mont
"You're the one who is tearing us apart Mont..." said Avalon with teary eyes.
Avalon turned around letting her tail blade swipe the tip of Monts paws. Mont gave a slight yelp and had a hurt look on his face. Avalon walked off leaving Mont to curse the words he said to his sister. When she was almost out of sight Mont look up and whispered
"Avalon ... I'm sorry...."
