One World Away COMPLETED (Book I)

Glimmer Of Hope

He stared at Heather and her friends in fury.

"Why didn't she just let her die? Doesn't she appreciate all the hard work I've done just to get her to kill them? And what? Saves them!!!" He shouted.

He watched again as she surveyed the ruined house.

"They should've been left to burn!!!"

He clutched his amulet again promising. "We need a new way to get her to give that love I gave her... For soon... When we are together... We will have no use for her..."

He threw a transparent knife at a picture of Heather.

"We will be together and she will be gone..."

He gestured something with his fingers and the picture and transparent knife blew up.

"PERMANENTLY!!!..."

I rummaged through the house to find some of their stuff. There weren't any foods or water or anything but I could change my clothes seeing as the burns haven't reached the training room.

I changed into some cool combat jeans, sweet sneakers, a long sleeved blue shirt and a leather jacket.

"Don't you look a little more... Tomboy-ish than before?" Pepper said. She snapped her fingers and our clothes wer fixed and injuries were gone.

Sam hugged Pepper and they both cried.

"I thought you were dead... I wouldn't risk having you dead."

"Same here Sam... I thought I was a goner. You'd be alone." Pepper hugged him tightly.

I asked Scipes how the house went on fire.

The stove top and other items weren't being used.

"How did the house go on fire then?... Unless someone purposely put it on fire..."

"Oh, speaking of stovetop and food... Anybody want an icescream sandwich?" I held out the three icescream sandwiches.

"Sure. I'm so in need of a snack!" Pepper grabbed one and ripped open the wrapper.

"Yeah, thanks punk." Scipes took one.

"Shame you haven't gotten one Sam. Sorry." I said.

"Don't worry I got one." He teleported one into his hand.

We were laughing and eating our icescreams until Pepper was eating to fast.

"Don't eat to fast!!!" I said. "You'll get a brain freeze!!!"

"Hey, at least she ain't on fire." Sam said.

"Knock!!! Knock!!! Sam!!!" Pepper said maniacally.

"Wut. Pep?" Sam said.

"Icescream at."

"Icescream who?"

"Icescream at YOU if you tell another joke!!!" She said.

Suddenly, we stood still. Open-mouthed then we were rolling on the floor laughing.

"I'm proud of you sis. Finally a good joke!!!"

"Welp, he's got a point." I said.

"I guess my point is sharp as knives."

"Hey, stop cutting my lines with wisecracks."

"Then don't be so sharp with mine then."

"I guess we've said e-knife jokes."

"Come on. You're having another sharp line in my wisecracks."
