Ninja Possession {Completed}

Chapter Thirteen

A/N: And so I've returned from the dead

I apologize deeply for leaving for, like, ever, I swear it's all Hamilton's fault

On the darker side of things I've accidentally started writing a Hamilton thing; who wants to read book that's based solely on adultery?! :D

Stab me if you'd like, I wouldn't blame anyone

Imma make this a 2-part updated thing since I wanna update but this is starting to become too many damn pages for any man to understand!

Hamilton reference :p 

 Cole inhaled slowly through his nose as he watched her leave, "Right... Don't do that again..." After a moment's hesitation more, he followed her back to regroup outside the Temple.

All eyes were on him when he resurfaced from the woods, "So that was a bit longer of a chat than we expected," Jay mumbled, glancing between Lizz and Cole.

Cole crossed his arms, "And?" he huffed at Jay.

"Where were you?" Kai asked.

"Talking," Cole's tone was clipped.

"About?" Kai urged, flexing his fingers.

"Things that don't concern you," Lizz stepped in, ready to slap both boys, "Let's go inside and meet our doom now, 'kay? The sooner I die, the better..." she jumped towards the front portion of the wrap-around porch.

"Don't you mean the sooner we learn Airjitzu, the better?" Jay corrected, somersaulting after her.

"Sure," she was glancing around, seeing if there was an easy way to get inside.

While Cole and Jay were tugging at the boards covering up a window, Lizz motioned silently towards the door and Zane and Kai gently pulled it open, letting Lizz walk in before they followed.

From inside, Lizz could hear Jay's voice, "Oh... okay."

As soon as the other two were inside, the door swung shut and both got locked with an echoing click that scared Lizz so much she leaped into Jay's arms, "Hold me!" It took a moment for her to realize what happened, and after Jay awkwardly cleared his throat, she slid back to her feet, "I... my knee is... acting up again.... That's why I did that. It's fine though, now, no worries."

"This way, c'mon," Cole began leading the group through the labyrinth of winding, dark hallways, "Let's check in here."

Jay and Kai began fiddling with the doorknobs, turning and twisting them until finally the double doors swung open. Walking into the library-type room, everyone flipped down their hoods, looking around. Lizz was beaming, "Books!"

"Not now," Cole's voice squeaked terribly when the doors slammed shut behind them. Since he was looking back, he didn't see the spider hanging from the ceiling in front of him, and he bumped into it with a squeal.

Kai batted the spider, "Relax."

Lizz now had it running over her hands as she twisted them back and forth, "Yeah, Brookstone. If this place is really haunted, the spiders are the l-least of your worries," he voice faltered, a shudder running up her spine.

Kai followed her gaze to the creepy-looking portrait of Sensei Yang that was hanging over the roaring fireplace, "We just need to wait until he shows himself, we'll be fine. Now put the spider back, Lizzie."

"'s not my name," she let the spider go and it scrambled back up the wall, "Does anyone else find it a bit strange that there's a lit, roaring fire in an abandoned building?" the fire wasn't helping, either. It was casting dark, dancing shadows across every surface.
