Chapter 15

Lucy didn't know what to do. Her brother the one who didn't believe her. The one who made her feel even worse was right in front of her. She swallowed hard, her eyes having tears in them. But they didn't fall at least not yet. She took a breath trying to calm down and nibbled her lip. She leaned back against the tree and refused to look at him.

"Lucy" he said poking her but she moved away from him. Hurt look on her face. She swallowed hard tears threaten to fall. She couldn't do this. Not now, and not to him. She rubbed her eyes as she heard her brother sigh.

"No, just no what are you doing here" her voice was well quite but held something. Maybe angry or something else.

"Lucy, I'm sorry about earlier" he mumbled to her and Lucy looked up. Sure he looked sorry. Sure he looked like he hadn't slept that well. His eyes were red and dark circles surround his eyes. He even almost had beard. Jeez we weren't gone that long Lucy thought to herself and looked down.

"I don't care what you have to say, you are my brother you are supposed to care for me. You were supposed to believe me. My twin, my use to be best friend" Her voice was well louder than before but not yelling at him. Not yet, and trust me dear reader. Lucy wanted to tell at him. With everything she had but she was tired and she was done. She just couldn't do this anymore. Not with him, not with Sam Not with that thing out there. Not with that thing winning.

She grabbed her stuff and Warren grabbed his. Ready to follow his sister and to tell her the truth. It was easy just tell her what happen and that he cared about her. And sure he didn't understand he tired too, he looked stuff up and did everything he could. But now, he wasn't sure that she would believe him.

Lucy started to walk with her. She didn't care if Warren or Sam would follow her. She just wanted to get away as far as she can from everyone. Screw the light I'm done she thought to herself and kept on walking.

Her brother jogged to catch up with her. Sam said hang back so the twins could have time to talk to each other and hopefully work this out. He wasn't sure Lucy was going to talk to Warren. He knew how angry she was. But she hoped that she would listen to Warren. He was sure that Warren could help her maybe. Maybe help her realize that she wasn't alone and that she can get through this. Because he tired but couldn't help her. After all Warren knew his sister better. At least Sam hoped so as he walked behind them.

Lucy wanted to talk faster but was sure that Warren would run to catch up with her. She kept this up for hour or so and then was sick of him behind her. He didn't say anything though but it bugged her. Why was here? He didn't care before why did he care now?

"What is your problem, you're here after long time and you suspect me to forgive you just like that" she said voice getting louder with every word seem to echo a little bit.

"Lu." Warren said softly as if to say give me a chance.

Lucy glared at him not sure what to say but she felt angry so angry at her brother. For calling her crazy for so many other things. And Angry felt good it was better than feeling nothing and she was pretty sure that feeling angry after feeling nothing wasn't a good thing.

"Don't Lu me, that isn't going to fix this. if this can be fix" she almost hissed at him. Her jaw was clenched and her hands were made into fist. Her steps were now heavy and made more noise as they walked through bunch of leaves.

"Lucy, you have to forgive me sooner or later" he said softly Lucy just rolled her eyes and kept walking. There were mountains ahead. Lucy didn't know they were that fair. And didn't really pay attention. But she started to climb. It wasn't a big mountain but tall enough to see part of the area there were in.
