"Would you stop freaking pacing!! Holy shit. I cannot take it anymore."
"No I will not stop pacing. Emalene is unconscious and because of what? Some fucking magical book? Why the fuck would you guys risk your lives for a book?"
"It's not just a book. It's a coveted book. It wasn't some mass produced textbook with unoriginal content. I mean there are only 3 copies in the entire world for God's sake!! Jesus, you wolves do not understand the importance of witchcraft. This world is not 2 dimensional, okay? There are more creatures in existence than just wolves and humans." Wow, that's the most brilliant thing to have ever wheezed it's way out of Jordan's lungs, but why is Kaden fighting with Jordan over our newest collector's edition? What's going on? Opening my eyes, I blink a million times and squint at the lighting in the room. Oh Jesus. Who invented light bulbs? Oh right, Thomas Edison. Please give a round of applause to the guy who single-handedly created torture devices to victims of hangovers and victims of general bashing to the skull region.
As I'm sitting up, I hear crashing and growling. GOD. Could the noise just stop for ONE SECOND. Holy guacamole. Clutching my head, I see Kaden's wolf fighting with Jordan. Wow, I'm actually impressed that Jordan is practicing magic and... winning. Before the fight can escalate, I get up to put an end to this, but I'm not stupid. I will never again intervene in a werewolf fight using my human body as a personal shield. My thoughts are inteerupted by more crashing and breaking of glass, which of course is loud as hell.
Grabbing my head, GOD COULD THE SOUNDS JUST STOP FOR A FREAKING SECOND?! Balling my hands into fists, I throw them down in frustration, feeling the most powerful surge of energy I've ever felt before. A gush of wind knocks both of them over without a single word. As the anger dissipates, so does the surge of energy, leaving me with a throbbing headache. My breathing becomes slightly labored and I close my eyes, feeling myself sway again.
"Emalene?" Jordan sounds hesitant and serious, which never happens. He grabs me and makes me sit back down on the couch, "Are you okay? Where did that power come from?"
"I don't know Jor, I don't know. I just have a huge throbbing headache and I-I just couldn't take it anymore." Sniffling, I lean my head on his shoulder as Kaden comes back in human form and fully dressed.
Handing me a bottle of water and 2 maximum strength Tylenol, Kaden squats in front of me. "I thought you might have a headache, so I wanted to give you these.
Ding ding ding. Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner. "Congratulations. You cracked the mystery of the year." Swallowing the pills all at once, "so what exactly happened?"
Kaden's eyes darken, "well, you and Jordan over here risked your lives today and for what? So you could practice some spell with some stupid book?"
Raising my head, "Why, yes, we were practicing some spell from some stupid book. Why, how stupid and unintelligibly reckless we were for going out and refining our skills. You know, synonymous with wolves when they train? It's the same concept. We didn't provoke the wolf into attacking us. In fact, I don't know why that wolf attacked us in the first place. We weren't bothering him."
"You may have not been provoking the wolf, but what made you think you could go out by yourself in the middle of the woods and practice magic?"
Standing up, "Oh don't you dare talk down to me. You have no idea what I'm capable of and for your information, I was with Jordan and I don't need your permission anyways! You're not my knight in shining armor so stop acting high and mighty. Just come off that pedestal you put yourself on and join us commoners on the Land of Common Sense."
