Amoung The Shadows

Chapter 13-Cold Hearted

Peter got up from the bed and was about to leave.
"WAIT! Are you just going to leave me here?!" His eyebrow went up and he said,
"You will find out more in the morning, for now, go back to sleep...love."
He grinned myscheviosly and waved his hand in my direction. I suddenly felt extremely sleepy, but decided to go with it, because this happens to me A LOT.

The last thing I saw was Peter exiting the cabin. Smiling.

I woke up and felt as though I hadn't gotten a wink of sleep.
I drowsily walked over to the mirror, and nearly tripped over Allison's sleeping body. She used hay as a pillow, and her cloak as a blanket.

I was sure that I would have hickeys from last night, so I stopped mid-step and made my way over to Mary's clothing chest to pick out something with a turtle neck.
.
.
.
Once I picked out my outfit, I drowsily floated over to the Vanity, afraid of what I might see. I was sure that I had tear tracks embedded into mangy cheeks and my hair was a bird's nest. Also, I have to wear a button-up blouse...those look ridiculous, and I despise everything with a turtle neck, but a girl must go extreme measures to hide love bites....especially when you have protective Mihno as a friend...

When I arrived at the mirror, I gasped.

My neck is clean as though nothing happened. The bruises that I thought were supposed to be there, were gone. Nonexistant!
As I was getting over my shock, I heard Allison mumbled something like My head hurts
But I wasnt really able to make out what she was saying.
"Oh, he drugged you too?"
"What?"Was her answer.
You see...one time, Newt said Peter came in his dream to warn him of a danger. But Newt decided to ignore the warning. He also was tired the whole day as I am right now. When he confrunted Peter, the deamon said that he had the ability to travel into peoples dreams and do 'dirty work' that he didnt want to do in his existant form. At that time, I didnt believe that was possible...now I do. I was just going to scare Allison, and give her the impression that Peter drugged her, and nothing happened.

Allison muttered something and I turned to her, "Look, words of advice, dont talk to your self...if you need to, then think it." I briskly turned to the mirror and she grumbled, "Sorry."
"Why do you think Peter would do that? Drugg me, I mean."She was as clueless as a lamb...Time to get to work. Payback to Peter for toying with me.
"It's something that he would do." I said to her, still facing the mirror.
"Why does everone think that he is such a monster?"I had to suppress a laugh at her comment.
"People change, sweety! Eventually, the nice and innocent Peter you knew, was murdered by the new one...Pan."
"Ohh" Was her responce. Once again, I have done a great job at causing a tear in family ties.
Faith-1
Peter-0
"Would you be a dear and pass me the brush?" I inquired.
"I think I left it on Mary's chest." I will never say that it is mine, due to the amount of times I ran my fingers over the crossed out name.

Allison decided to be a good girl, and handed me the brush. When our fingers touched, there was an electric spark. No! I know what you are thinking! I am definatly not in love with her. The spark was caused by a different emotion. It seemed like sort of a warning of caution.
The brush's handly was slightly burned and looked as though it had been put through a fire.
"What did you do?!"I screeched, and furriously brushed my hair with my newly scorched brush.
"Nothing!"She shouted back.
"Wait." She catiously stood up and observed me like observing an animal in a zoo.
"What?"
"Give me you hand!"
"Hell no!"
"Please!!"
"Fine"
That was our conversation before I reluctantly stuck oyt my hand. When she put her hand in mine, there was that spark again and the vains in my arms began to stand out. in a light turquoise color. Her's stood out as well, but they were red.
I screamed and tries to yank my hand back, but it was as though they were stuck.
"What's happening to us?!"She whisper shouted.

Suddenly everything was becoming black and I heard a thud next to me. Then a growl. Then, I felt my head hit the floor and I was out like a light.
.
.
.
I woke up and nearly screamed. The cabin was covered in scrach marks and small fires in obscure places on Allison's side of the room.
On mine, there were things covered in ice and snow. My bed looked like there was a snow storm ontop of it.
"What happened in here?!" I screeched at Allison. When I noticed she was asleep, I shook her shoulder, hard, that should do it.

She woke up with a gasp and looked around the room as well.
"What happened in here?!"She mimicked my question.
"I DONT KNOW! That's what I was asking you!" She grumbled after I said that.
"Let's go talk to Peter about it! He must know something, I mean he does have magic...right?"
Ugh! Peter this, Peter that. It's like she thinks he's some hero!
"NO!!! Ww cant tell Peter! Whatever you do, dont tell Pan!"
She rolled her eyes,
"He's my brother! Not some power hungry snob!"I snorted at how wrong she is.

"Like I said, he changed, dearie!" I barked at her. She is so nieve that it is agravating!

We fought back and forth for a long time before we finaly agreed to consult Jace.
.

We were cleaned up and out the door in a few minutes, but I was nervous about the fact that if someone walked into our room, they would see the mess.

We found Kalia and Jace flirting on a log. While Peter watched them, clearly amused. I smirked.

"We need to talk to Jace. Now."I said aiming my remark at Kalia, and a bit toward Peter, who Allison was nervously looking at sideways. "OK"Said Jalia.
"No.Just Jace...So you two" I pionted at them, "Must get your butts out of here. Now. I am so not in the mood for a fight, so you might as well hurry." Galia raised her eyebrow. "What is it Falia? Cat got your tounge? Speak."I said, smirking.
"My name is Malia!" She shouted.
"Whatever."I said, bored already.
"Whatever Jace hears, I can hear too. I dont want him hurt." At that, he raised an eyebrow and I laughed.
"I should probably go now." He blurted. "Right behind you, bud." Added Peter.
"Oh, trust me, Kalia, Jace is a big boy now. He can take care of himeself." Allison gasped when I said that, and Malia's face turned red, and so did her cheeks.
She lunged at me, but missed when I side stepped her. She growled on the floor. While I laughed.
"Please, Malia. Dont do that ever again. Plus, go fetch your boyfriend and i'll tell the Lost Boys that are staring at you that you just tripped, and did not get side stepped by me." I smiled at her, and made a dismissive hand motion. Then, I walked over to her as though to help her, but when she stood up, I growled in her ear, "I may be a bitch, but you ruined my life. Your arrival killed my only love, and turned me into a monster. So, I suggest you move along." I smiled at her and a small tear escaped my eye as I turned and yelled at Allison, "I have to do something I forgot to." The training center is usually closed right now, so that is where I will go.
