Wither Skulls

Chapter Twelve

Axel's POV

We started walking once I woke up. Jessie and Petra were apparently the first ones awake, according to Lukas anyway.

Jennifer was leading the way with Olivia at her side, both of them talking about who knows what.

Chapter Twelve- Getting Along

"Ugh. I can't believe Olivia is talking to her." I growl, making Lukas roll his eyes.

He smoothed over his blond hair before setting his helmate on his head.

Despite our fighting, I was glad Lukas joined the order, having another guy around was good.

"Seriously dude? We need someone to get through to our Wolfy guide over there. If she's the one that's doing that you're gonna have to get over it." He says simply, eyes drifting around the area.

We had made it past the forest quickly, and were now in a field or sorts.

It was nice, Jessie seemed to like the amount of sun shining down on her.

That didn't stop the shivering though.

"Seriously? You're okay with Olivia even talking to her? How do we even know we can trust her?" I ask, making him grumble under his breath about something.

"Because, she's the only way we can save Jessie." He snaps, making my eyes widen.

Apparently he was annoyed with me.

I rolled my eyes and left it alone, watching the group in front of us.

Petra was standing on the side of the shadows, while Jessie was bathed in full sunlight, looking happy to have some heat.

I barely heard what they said from time to time.

"D-do you think that being burning hot will lbs the same or different?" Jessie chatters, making Petra shrug.

"I wouldn't know. I hate the cold, its the worst. All that snow? Ugh." She grumbles, making Jessie laugh lightly.

It was nice to see the two of then trying to keep their minds on something fun.

Their conversation turned into snowball fight talk when my stomach started to growl.

"Uh... Can we stop and get some grub?" I ask, making all Keyes turn to me.

Jennifer looks up, seeing the sun high in the sky.

"Fine. We eat then we leave. So get finding." She growls, plopping down into the grass.

Olivia snorts, watching as I glare at her.

"Okay, that's it. You two go find the food. We will sot here." She states, crossing her arms.

I already knew there was no arguing, but I didn't like it.

Jennifer didn't seem to like the idea much either.

"What?! Why?" She objects looking up Olivia with a pleading glance.

She shakes her head.

"Because were all tiered of you two arguing! Notch knows Jessie doesn't need that sort of thing right now." She scolds.

We both looked over at Jessie, who was shivering in the grass, unable to look me in the eye.

Petra rolls her eyes.

"Just go find food, come back. You don't even have to speak to each other." The redhead groans, making Jennifer get up.

"Whatever." She grumbles, heading away from the group, "You coming rock head?"
