-Aries-

So Callie came back that's a plus. But I snapped on her. What to do about that. I need to control it, and I will. I just need a little bit of time. Yeah time. The one thing I'm short on. I just need to find out who is possessed by Kronos. I don't really know how to word this but I can just feel his presence. I can't just tell he's close. I can just feel it. I'm just going to talk to everyone like a normal conversation. I will be able to tell it's him. Our minds were connected for like two or three days. With him that's enough. The only one's I haven't talked to yet are Luke, Gabe, Lily, and Libra. That shouldn't be so hard. What if he's still in my head just I pushed him to the back. This headache could be Kronos trying to push his way back into power. No I would know for sure if something like him was in my head. I went down stairs for my fourth round of ibuprofen today. Virgo grabbed my hand

"Aries nobody needs that many pain pills." I glared at her

"Virgo. I just had my mind ripped up by Kronos for Christ sake. I only want to get rid of a headache. I think it's just my head weaving itself back together and it should go away in a few days but until then I will live breath eat pain pills." Her jaw clenched.

"Did you try peppermint oil?" She asked

"What? No." She grabbed her bottle.

"Put it on your temples." I listened to her. There's no way she would do something to hurt me. I sighed if it doesn't work then Virgo's getting a big 'I told you so' I went to Gabe's room. I remember a while ago as Alex, he was one of my only friends even when Spence wasn't. I swallowed. Why didn't I fight harder for a friend like him. I knocked on the door.

"Who's there?" He yelled

"Aries"

"It's open." I walked in.

"Hey man, I just thought we hadn't talked for a while and I wanted to hang out a little bit." He raised an eyebrow.

"Um. Sorry dude but I'm kinda busy." Yep it's Gabe. Social situation? Leave my room?! TALK TO SOMEONE WITHOUT TYPING IT OUT. SO Scarey!

"Alright man. I'll talk to you later." He closed the door. Who's next, Right Libra. Where does she like to hang out? By the pool. I think her and Penny hang there with Cassie and Adam. I went out to the pool and Just as I thought. The small group except Cassie was there talking. I highly doubt he's here.

"Hey Aries!" ugh so perky.

"Hey Librity."I mumbled.

"You should hang out and get some sun with us." I shook my head

"I would any other day but today I'm busy." She frowned nope definitely not Kronos.

"Awe are you sure?" Very sure

"Yeah sorry" I walked away yep still Lib. Okay now it's just Luke and Lily. I saw Luke shooting his bow. They work really hard. I'm proud. It's weird now though cause I'm not a leader. Was I ever the leader after Andy died. Yeah I was. I grabbed the extra bow off the rack

"You shoot? I thought you were an up close and personal type of guy." I nodded jeez it's been awhile since I've done this.

"Well I am. But yeah I shoot sometimes." Luke scoffed

"Lets see what you got." I chuckled

"It's been a while so don't make fun of me when I'm not that great." I held my breath until I fired the arrow.It hit the third ring I'm rusty.

"Eh not bad I guess." He fired one he did it in a split second and it hit dead center. "But you're no archer" yep this is Luke.. lil show off. I put the bow away.

"Well I'll talk to you here later I gotta find Lily." he nodded

"Have fun man" I nodded. I don't want to believe that Kronos is taking over Lily. She's one of my best friends, but she's the only one left that he could have possessed, She's not she can't be. Yes she can. Just talk to her and find out for sure. I went inside and into the living room. I cleared my throat

"Hey Lily. Can we talk" Callie giggled pushing her off the couch and into me. I walked up and into my room with her. I closed the door and waited a minute before I bashed my fist against the door to make sure nobody was eavesdropping

"Listen I know Kronos messed your head up but you don't need to take it out on us." I glared and frowned yep.

"I'm not I just wanted to make sure you still saw me as Aries after Kronos, Everyone else see's me as a blurry image of myself. I didn't even have to ask your just like everyone else." I said. She looked like she knew she messed up what she said

"No I am-" I didn't let her finish. It's not her. I know it's not her. I boiled with anger

"You know Kronos. You must be fucking retarded if you thought I couldn't pick you out in my best friend." She furrows her brows

"What do you mean. I think he messed you up more than I originally thought." I don't want to hurt her I repeated in my head. NOpe! I wrapped my hand around her slim fragile throat as if it was an art then all at once I tightened my grip.

"You know Kronos. I'm going to sent your sorry ass back to where you came from. And I will personally make sure you never get back out this time. I needed to not break her neck. And I needed to not break anything. She started laughing but it wasn't her laugh it was Kronos' voice with her voice in the background. And it didn't sound like it was out loud. It was like it was in my head.

"Aries you idiot. You are too late. You would have been too late when I corrupted you" All of a sudden she faded into a smoke and disappeared. What? Those words echoed for a second. I'm dead. I had Kronos in my hands and he escaped. Ares is going to kill me. Why in the hell am I worried about what Are is going to do to me? I just let Kronos escape! He is going to destroy the world and enslave the human race or something bad like that. Oh hey the peppermint oil worked. Sweet! I sat against the wall where I just had Kronos in a choke hold.
