Consequences of puberty

Chapter4: marked

**************NEXT DAY***********

''Whoa Grace did someone make you cry this morning?" Shayne exclaimed while laughing. "No, I just woke up this morning and it was all glittery under my eye and I had some wierd looking symbol on my right arm" I said worried. He looked at me and took me by my arm. "Grace, I think you're marked" he said softly.

"What are you talking about?" I snapped

"Do you remember yesterday?" He sighed and I nodded.

"Well, anyone who gets marked is in great danger."

"So what are you saying?'' But he stayed silent.

"Shayne!"

He shook his head and I left the conversation.

************NIGHT************

I was getting ready to go to bed. I turned to my window about to close my curtain. Till I saw it.

I saw a huge long dark shadow outside my window, with a dagger holded in his hands.

I decided to call Shayne because he should know about this based on our last convo

Me: oh my god Shayne!

Shayne: there's a huge long dark shadow outside my window, with a dagger holded in his hands

Me: me too....

Shayne: marked!

Me: why do you keep saying marked?

Shayne: my dad used to work for a secret company and they had something in the house called piliote and it's suppose to be sacred. It's a air infected thing. Anyone who sniffes it will be-

Me: marked

With that in mind I hang up the call and stayed awake the entire night.

NEXT DAY.........

I woke up to my phone vibrating next to me. Ofcourse a text from Shayne

FROM

SHAYNE: my mom wants to talk to you tonight. Do not bring anyone else!

TO

SHAYNE: ok :I

I was scared.

*********SHAYNE HOUSE********

I walked up to the house very curious. I knocked on the door and Shayne greeted me in a hug. I came in and there stood 5 other people in the room besides Shayne,his mom, and his sister.

"Who are all these people?" I whispered to Shayne .

"Piliote members" he said. I shot him a look. He had his serious face on.

Shaynes mom started speaking. "Okay so we are here today because piliote has spilled and we don't know where yet. We have young grace with us tonight because she has been....marked.''

The whole crowd gasped and Shayne looked mad.

I looked over and he had tears all over him.

"Shayne what's going on"

He ignored me and went to his balcony.

I followed him to the balcony but he left his phone on the table and it buzzed. A text from 5367PILIOTEFUI . I checked the message and it said

" DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT. IT WASN'T YOUR FAULT IT COULD HAVE HAPPENED TO ANYONE BUT GOD CHOSE GRACE. DEALL WITH IT. WE ALL HAVE TO"

What wasn't his fault?

What Happened??

Was it the fact that I'm?

MARKED.............?
