Chapter 37~ One down, Two to go

Jordan's POV

She was gone.

Ianite was dead.

Emotions were going back and forth. I was sad. I was mad. I was confused.

I felt empty.

My dad dies from sickness. My mom dies from murder. My god just.. just turns to ash and dust before my very eyes.

I'm basically holding on by a thread, and that's because of Tom. He's been there for me through thick and thin. Without him helping me through this, I would be nothing. Just an emotionless person trudging through life.

I couldn't do anything. I was stuck in place. I couldn't move, I didn't want to. I didn't want to leave Ianite, even though she was gone. She's still here. She has to be. This has to be one of Nade's tricks.

Ianite can't be dead.

I looked at the ashes that covered the ground. I remembered the smile she sent me. It was full of happiness. Why would Ianite be happy?

Anger.

I lost it. My fists were bawled. I began a full on tantrum.

Destroying things. Breaking anything in my sight. I couldn't contain my anger. If Tom were here, he would help calm me. I miss him. I've not seen him in a little while.

All I was thinking about at the moment was Tom.

I dropped to the ground. I pulled my knees up to my chest, laying my head down. I began to cry. I wish I was with Tom. I wish my mom was still alive, as well as Ianite. I began to cry harder, when I heard a voice.

"Sparklez?"

I slowly looked up to see that I wasn't in the End anymore. I was in my room. I looked at Tom. His eyes were tear stained, his face red. A tear slid down his face as he basically tackled me.

"Where did you go?! I was so worried!"

I didn't answer. Instead, I just looked at him. I couldn't talk. Words laid at the tip of my tongue, yet I couldn't say them.

"Sparklez?"

I began to cry again. Tom quickly brought me into his arms. I tried to push him away, but failed.

"I-Ianite died." I said through the tears. Tom hugged me tighter.

"She said 'See you soon, my man.' And I don't even know what that means!" I cried even harder. Tom shushed me. I calmed down a bit, but was still whimpering. I'm an emotional wreck right now.

"While you were gone, Tonja and Wag figured out where Guard Tom was."

I looked up a Tom. "Really?" I croaked. My voice sounded awful. I guess crying a lot can make your voice awful.

"Yeah. Tucker went to go find something for his blood magic stuff and found the old guards tower. He went inside to explore and found some things that might lead towards the Shawdows and Death."

I quickly stood up, pulling Tom up. "C'mon. We're wasting day light." I said, walking downstairs, and out of the towers. We began our way to Tucker's. If anything he can lead us to the old guards tower.

"So this is where the guard tower was." Tucker pointed at the red X marked on his map. We were all armored up. Tucker was in his awesome red armor, while Sonja, Tom, Wag and I were in Earth Armor and Battle Mage. We all had our weapons, too. I liked Tom's the best. His was a very powerful hammer. He uses that hammer for just about anything.

"If we head out right now, we can set up near the towers and beat sundown." Tucker said, rolling the map up, and putting it in his bag.

"Well, what're we waiting for? Let's go!" I said, walking out the door. Tucker was having to lead the way. The other two had forgotten where the guard tower was, while I've never been.

"This is going to be a somewhat long walk, so be prepared."

Night time.

We were still walking.

Tom literally kills any mob in sight, making us have to stop, and wait on him to follow behind us again.

Finally, the tower came into view. Tucker got low and told us to keep behind him. Things moving around could be heard from the tower.

"Shit." Tom whispered. I looked back at him and mouthed 'what.'.

"I'm about to snee-" he began, but was cut off by him sneezing. I looked back up at the tower to see two glowing white dots looking out from a window. Guard Tom.

He was looking straight at us.

"Good job, Tom." Sonja slapped Tom on the back of the head. Tom spun around, slapping Sonja on the back of her head. They continued to do that for a a few seconds. I began to get upset. They're going to get us killed. I shot my head towards Tom, a random growl escaping my lips. Tom looked back at me. His eyes widened.

"Jordan, calm down and please make your eyes go back." Tom whispered, inching away from me.

"Quit acting like five year olds and shut up!" Tucker yelled, quickly covering his mouth. I looked back up at the window to see Guard Tom wasn't there. I slowly stood up, pulling my sword out. He's not in front of me.

He's behind me.

I quickly spun around to see Guard Tom standing behind the other three. He had his long sword with him. The blade was stained with red.

He chuckled, diapering into a cloud of black. I quickly turned back around to see Guard Tom holding onto Tucker. His sword was held against his neck.

"You've tried to stop us, but that didn't work." Guard Tom chuckled. He pushed the sword down harder on Tucker's neck. Tucker winced. I heard Sonja gasp.

"You should've been smart enough to know to stay away from us." Guard Tom said, pushing the sword even harder down. Blood started to roll down Tucker's neck.

"We didn't do anything to you! You picked the fight with us. All we did was fight back!" Tom yelled. I looked over at him. He looked as if he were about to pounce. His hammer in one hand, fist bawled in the other. I looked over to Tucker. His breathing was getting slower and heavier. I quickly thought of what I should do.

It seemed as if everything happened in slow motion.

Tucker wrapped his leg around Guard Tom's, throwing him on the ground. Without hesitation, I threw my sword at Guard Tom. It hit right under his neck. I looked away. It was a horrifying sight.

We all looked at each other. Then we busted out laughing. That's not weird, is it?

"So, one down, two to go?"

Hue I updated. I'm working on things. Ye I've said this before but I think if you look a my most recent update in my Random book, go to the chapter titled ohno. There you will (hopefully) see a pic of what I'm working on.

Question: Tucker or wag- who would win in a fight?

Idk. I think Wag. Cause Tucker is ye.

But I love them both
