Cahill Apocalypse: Amy's Clue Hunt Diary

Chapter 4: From Korea With Love

Ian's POV

Dan was grinning maniacally as he read the next entry's title. We were all sitting on the carpet ( how degrading) in his room, waiting anxiously for the next entry to be read. I didn't like the look on his face, but was curious anyways.

" Ahem." Dan cleared his throat. " I am going to read the title of the entry for the sake of....some. Ahem. Korea and Death." I gulped nervously, casting a look in Natalie's direction. She was calm, but I was actually terrified. Everybody would blame the Korea incident on me, and the last thing I wanted was a Holt hitting me. (beating me up.) My suit, pride, and ego would be ruined.

" Dear Diary,

Ian is a heartless, lying, manipulative, jerk-faced, annoying, rude, horrible, awful, Lucian scum. Thou lump of foul deformity." Dan read. I was shocked. Is that really how she felt for me? Everyone was snickering around me, even Natalie. I didn't know she had it in her. (Amy, not Natalie.) And what was with the Shakespearean insult? I didn't know what it means, but Jonah did. He kept on muttering the insult and bursting into a fit of laughter.

Dan wiped a tear, and said emotionally, " That is the most beautiful thing I've ever heard." I scowled at him, but unfortunately, he was facing Hamilton and laughing their heads off. Dan finally calmed down, and read the next sentence before going back to laughing. Hamilton moved to the diary and read it out loud, before joining Dan in their laughing fit.

"The next time I see him, I'll punch him senseless, then spit at his feet." Hamilton read. I paled immediately, and Natalie came over.

" it's alright, brother. You're still alive." she then patted me on the head and went back to her original spot. The nerve of her!

I scowled, but didn't say anything. Dan went back to the book, and read the rest of the entry.

" I guess that I should explain why I absolutely loathe Ian Cobra." I scowled again. First Dan, and now Amy. What was with the name Cobra? " Long story short, we had an alliance with Alistair and the Cobras after the Cobras saved us from the Yakuza, Ian went into a hedge maze at Alistair's mansion in Seoul, got bit in the bum by Alistair's dog, which was guarding a library, we went to this cave, and found the clue. Then, we discovered a mirror and decoded the message, but we gave the Cobras the wrong one. They then left us to die in a cave, and Alistair faked his own death while we were escaping the cave. Now, if I were to ask a normal, non-Cahill, person if they would've been traumatized, I'm sure they would've said yes. The key thing is, he pretended to like me and kissed me! It was my first kiss, and I was just--flattered that anybody would like me. Point is, if you have a thirst for revenge, violence, or murders, you can do that to the Cobras, and still go to heaven. They're the devil's incarnates. Especially Ian. LUCIAN SCUM! AND AMY IN THE FUTURE, DO ME A FAVOUR AND KICK HIM REAL HARD IN THE SHIN WHENEVER YOU SEE HIM, KAY? UNLESS I ALREADY KILLED HIM. WATCH OUT COBRA, AMY'S COMING."
Everyone was silent, and Dan closed the book ominously. I was shocked, and so was everybody else. Let's just hope for nothing--drastic.
" So that's what happened." Sinead finally said. She shook her head knowingly.
" Is it just me, or did Amy sound a lot like she was slightly off her rocker?" Hamilton said.
" Note to self: never mess with Amy." Dan muttered to himself before bouncing back to his normal self. " Anyone want Skittles?" I wrinkled my nose in disgust.
" Me!" Hamilton said, running after Dan to the kitchen.
" Sorry dude, but you don't stand a chance. The Janus know about love, and I'm actually quite surprised that you're still alive. She must be a real Madrigal to not kill you. And the Buffy incident?" Jonah said. I froze when he mentioned Buffy and he chuckled. " nice boxers." He then patted me on the back before returning to his room.
" Good night!" Natalie said, before walking out of the room. I could tell that she wanted to talk to me, and so I left too.
" Brother, you have to win the Cahill girl's heart." She said earnestly.
" Why is that, Natalie?" I asked.
" Because." She stared me in the eye, " she was serious. I can tell she's been plotting her revenge for a while now. That's why she hasn't done anything drastic so far. Expect to be hospitalized for while if you don't need my warning." She said seriously. I nodded numbly, before heading to my room.
" I'm dead," I muttered, crashing onto my bed.
