Chapter Three - Caught In The Act

~Two Nights Later~

Ash's POV
I wake up in the middle of the night. But not from a nightmare luckily. Ever since Light out that spell on me I haven't had nightmares! But it is good to have a midnight flight once in a while right?

I push my door open quietly hoping not to wake anybody up. I fly swiftly towards the front door and open it gently. Finally, some fresh air. I fly out the door closing it with my telekinesis. I fly up fast as a bullet then drop myself.
"Woo hoo!" I cheer not even caring about waking anybody up anymore. I open my big, feathered wings just as I was to hit the ground. I fly up again feeling the freedom flowing through my veins. I fly towards the forest, I fly above the trees, brushing my hand against the leaves. I dive into the forest, dodging all of the bushes and trees swiftly and gracefully.

I am an excellent flyer. Even better than Light, I fly more than I walk. I start doing tricks in the air, most of them risking death but I didn't care. It felt great to not worry about anything at all. I fly back up to the roof of our house and take in the view of Raspy Hill. Dark's grandfather owned Raspy Hill so Dark, Light and Glitch already knew about the place. Anti was already beat friends with Dark and moved in when his parents died when Emerald was 6 months, a year later Dark found me when I was 9 and I was his sister ever since.

"Someone seems to be having fun." I hear from behind me. I turn around and see Anti standing in the roof. His piercing green eyes were staring at me knowing I shouldn't be up in the middle of the night.
"What are you doing up there?" I ask shocked hoping he won't tell the others especially Light about this. Anti chuckles.
"I come up here to think. What are you doing up in the middle of the night?" He asks.
"No reason you need to know." I reply hoping he will not go on. But I know Anti, he will. He grins.
"We gonna play that aren't we? So, how long were you flying?" He asks. I know what he is doing. I'm gonna accidentally say how long I was out and that will tell him I was lying. But Dark taught me how to not fall for these mind games.

"I wasn't out flying at all." I reply. On the outside I sound calm and innocent   but on the inside ten alarms are going off in my head. He smirks at me,
"Well you are flying right now." Oh no. I'm going pale, that sometimes happens to when I lie, I don't faint or anything my skin just goes a tiny bit lighter than my original skin tone.
"You're going pale. I win. But don't worry, I won't tell." Anti says. I smile and fly next to him and sit down.

"Thanks. If Light found out I was up here, he would send me to bed like I'm a two year old." I laugh. Anti laughs as well. We both start blushing.
"Well this isn't awkward at all." I laugh again trying to break the silence,
"Well what do you wanna talk about?" Anti asks as we both look up at the beautiful night sky.
"I don't know, why don't we ask questions about..... Stuff?" I reply.

"Ok then, me first. What is your backstory?" Anti asks. I hesitate but decided to tell him anyway since I can trust him and he sort of already knows about it. I start to explain,
"Well when I was 9 years old, my house caught on fire. My parents died in the fire, my mum being a demon and my dad an angel or vice versa. When Dark was 13 (edit: I have changed the age from 15 to 13) he found me in the fire and took me home. He heard my parents screamed out my name before their death so Dark knew my name was Ash. He lived with you after Dark's Mum and Dad in Raspy Hill which your mum owned, you know the rest." I continue and ask, "my turn, how did you and Dark meet?"

"We found each other on the street one day, before my parents died and before Emerald was born. We hung out then my parents died after Emerald was 6 months old. Then we all lived together." He explained. Then it was an awkward silence again. I hate awkward silences.

"Favourite colour?" I ask trying to break silence. Anti gives me that 'really?' look.
"The colour of every single thing in my room. Hint the colour is green" He says, I giggle knowing it was a stupid question, he continues. "Favourite thing to do?"
"Flying, duh." I say smiling. After that we were just asking stupid obvious questions. I yawn and my eyes feel droopy. Anti notices and smiles,
"You look cute when you yawn." I start to blush.
"Glitch said I look like a dog trying to roar like a lion. I won't tell them if you don't tell them." I say. Anti nods and teleports away, then I fly back to my room.
