The Element Keeper

Chapter 17

"She didn't break it, just a sprain, she is going to have to take it easy for the next few weeks, she is human so it should heal in four to six weeks, she has an air-cast, she isn't on crutches, she will be fine." The doctor says and James nods.

"That was stupid, you shouldn't of been fighting him.  He was bigger than you and more experienced." James tells me as I stand with a little stumble.

"He was my father, I wasn't worried, I had him beat before we even started.  Calm down." I tell him as I get my balance.

"You could have gotten hurt worse than you are now." He stated as he opened the door.  I looked around but didn't see my family, it was odd, they were always there when I ended up here.

"But I didn't.  Hey, where is my family?"

He looks around then shrugs and starts walking with me following.  "No idea, they were here a few minutes ago."

"Obviously, Drake was messing with the needles remember?  He tried to give Zach a shot." I recall laughing.

"I can't get over that.  I don't think I will ever come to terms with it."

"Come to terms with what?" I ask him confusedly

"How you don't call him alpha, that is what people are taught at a young age." He explains and I not continuing the short walk home.

"Well I was brought up differently." I say looking at the ground.

"How so?" He asks and I shrug.

"It doesn't matter, I am in the future I don't need the past." I say and end the conversation with that.

"Hey, how are you supposed to stay in shape if you are on probation?" Jax asks walking into my room.

"Um, I guess I will, um, take a break?" I answer like a question and he laughs sitting down on my bed.

"You guess?  Well then, I can leave." He responds, when I hear a crash and instantly move.

I go downstairs to the living room where the couch is flipped and a lamp was thrown and smashed against the wall, standing in the middle of the room was James, Zach, Logan, and Josh.

"What is going on?" I ask and their eyes snap to me and my pack members instantly start to worry, I can feel it.

"Nothing, go back to your room Rose." Drake says and I shake my head.

"I am not a child!  Don't talk to me like that!  Now tell me what is going on!" I say and Zach shakes his head.

"Same as last time, we don't need a repeat, go away." Logan says when no one else responds.

"Josh, what do you think?" I ask.

"Josh, don't answer her." Zach orders.

"That is mean!  Now he is torn between two leaders!" I growl out.

"I am his true leader, I am alpha, not you." Zach tells me.

"Whatever, what can I do to help control James?" I ask and he shakes his head telling me not to do anything.

"You can go away."

"Why?  Why does Josh get to stay but not me?  I have a higher position than him!" I say aggravated.

"Because he is a wolf so can help take care of himself,  he heals faster, he is a wolf, higher than you on the ranking pole in any world." Jack says walking in. "Plus he is a guy, he is stronger already, so back off little girl." He says walking up to the group and I look around with tears.

"Is this true?  No matter what I do I will always be weak in this world?" I ask everyone.

"Yes." Jack responds when Zach opens his mouth.  

"No, it isn't, Rose you are stronger than every one, even me." James responds snapping out of his angry trance.  He walks up and pulls me into a hug, I stand stiffly not knowing what I should do, I don't get hugs, I am a top warrior, people don't really think I need this type of stuff, at least not people outside of my group.  He pulls back and wipes some tears I didn't know fell and I laugh.

"I am so weak, crying over something so stupid." I tell everyone and they laugh and Drake steps forwards hugging me and pulling me from James grip.

"No, you are a teenage girl.  It is normal we wont judge you." He tells me and I smile hugging him.

"Thanks, anyways." I say pulling out of the grip and looking at everyone and crossing my arms. "Why were things flying all over like we were an air port and not people?" I ask

"I wanted to leave with my pack." James says already tensing up.

"Then leave." I say with a nod towards the door.

"That is the problem.  He wants to leave, but not just what he came with." Zach says.

"Why do I feel like I am in the middle of this again?" I ask looking at the ground.

"Because you are his mate, he wants you to go with him, to lead his pack and train his warrior's to be the best." Drake answers my question.

"Do I get a say?" I ask and they nod.  "I love you guys, you guys have dealt with me when you could have killed me that first day." I turn to Drake. " You are my brother, not the brother that had yelled at me or left when I flinched cause you asked me to make food that first week." I turned to Zach. "You are more like my dad, you always made sure I could handle what life threw at me before you put me up to stuff, not always was I ready, but I wouldn't be here today if you wouldn't of given me a chance." I turn to Logan. "We barely talked, you used to hate me until I beat your butt in that first fight.  I gained respect from you and you gained respect from me, you will always be my equal." I turn to Josh and I smile. "You helped me even when I passed you you still pushed me until I hit my limit, even then, you made me start over with the whole exercise, you will forever be the one I go to if I get stuck in training and don't know what to have people do." I look at the whole group. "I love all of you, but I need to begin my life as luna, I need to tell people to call me Rose all over again.  I have to continue what was set as my life path, obviously we will meet again, I swear.  I love you!" I tell them and bring them in for a group hug then turn to nod at James telling him I am ready.
