Zodiac High

Chapter 66

Cancer POV: Home Sweet Home And  Family
Well that was an adventure! I can't believe I completely and utterly failed to do my part. I wish that I could prove that I'm just as good as anyone else. The only good thing is that Libra and I are finally together. I can't believe it took me so long to confess. As we are transported back to Celestial High, all these thoughts run through my head. Home is the only word that comes to my mind as we run though the hallways. Worry spreads through my body as I realize that we could be too late. Libra rushes through two wooden double doors as we enter a long white hallway. This is the nurses offices and hospital wing in our school, a fairly new addition. We tread down the hallway and find Aries, Gemini, Aqua, Taurus, and three new and mysterious people are standing near our friends. Aries id kneeling on the floor brewing some apple pieces, a flower, and herbs. Everyone looks at us as we present our ingredients. The water from the Styx flows and mixes the rest of the ingredients. Aphros pours the spittle from Cerberus and almost immediately a white flower with light pink ends appears and dissolves into the mixture. Hope spreads through me as Pisces finds and pours the cure into four small glasses. Nothing is left over. She gives Libra, Scorpio, and Perseus glass. Then the four of them go over our unconscious friends. Scorpio opens Leo's mouth and pour the liquid down his throat. Immediately Leo's bright eyes open and we know that the cure will work. Pisces then pours the cure into Virgo's mouth as Libra does the same to Cap and Perseus to Sagi. All their eyes flicker open and color comes back to their bodies. Immediately Virgo runs over to Leo, hugging him while crying. Sagi grabs Cap's hands as he kisses her passionately. As soon as they're done, Virgo and Cap run into Pisces's arms while Sagi and Leo exchange handshakes with Aries. It's a happy reunion. We can all finally sleep happily. Classes resume tomorrow. I can't wait to live a normal life.
In the boys' dorm a conversation starts up as soon as the girls leave for bed. Scorpio starts with a chuckle and then," Well that was quite an adventure."
Aries and I smile in return as Leo asks," So, what exactly happened? I mean I know that the dates got sabotaged but, what else?"
I reply with," It's kind of a long story. But, here goes. So basically, after the dates two groups were sent to find you guys. Pisces got poisoned as well but, the poison was finding a way through her body and out through her scar. The we looked in the book from our last adventure and found a small flask with a paper inside of it. We soon found that that's the recipe to the poison and that the flask holds a possible cure. Pisces drinks it and we receive the recipe. The recipe called for the horn of Chrysomallos, herbs of Glaucus, water from the river Styx, flower from the spittle of Cerberus, golden apple, and a flower from the Baobab tree. We split up to get these ingredients. And with the help of Perseus and Aphros, we are able to get the ingredients and get back to you guys in  time. We are so thankful to have you guys back."
I pause for a second and continue with," If you want to know more, you'll have to ask Scorpio or Aries 'cause I literally lost my mind."
Sagi and Leo look at me like I'm insane as Scorpio comes out of the bathroom. We all look at as he puts his hands up and asks," What?"
The rest of us laugh, Aqua and Aphros included. Scorpio sits down between Aries and Leo, takes a deep breath and says," Okay so just after Pisces and I had found Cancer and Libra, we met my parents," he pauses and continues with," We're brothers, Aries and Leo, we're brothers."
       Leo and Aries look at him with smiles as they all share a handshake, that's so complicated I can't believe that they all did it without failure. They must remember it from their past. We all remember one simple thing or another. The rest of the night is filled with stories of our adventures with laughter and smiles as well as longing to be free from this madness. But, that probably won't happen anytime soon. We continue to talk as one question rings in my head: Do I want it to end?
Cap POV
As we settle back into our dorms, conversation slowly starts up while we all slowly get dress into our pjs. I'm so disorientated. I like to know exactly what's going on, who's involved, and where it happened. I'm just that kind of person. Wonder fills me as Pisces, Taurus, Gemini, and Libra describe their adventures. With trips into the Underworld, Golden apples, and a beautiful witch, I feel that I missed out on a ton of stuff. Suddenly, Gemini interrupts Libra with," OMG, I totally forgot. Pisces this is for you from Circe."
She pauses, gives Pisces a small scroll with her name on it, and continues with," Sorry Libra for the interruption."
Pisces POV
I can't believe what this is saying. I have not one but, two brothers and a mother, too! I have to find Cancer and Perseus. I rush out the door, hearing voices asking where I am going. I'll tell them later but, now I have to find Perseus and Cancer. I'm running through the entire school at eleven in the night. I keep running until I have climbed all the stairs. I only stop to knock politely, but with haste. Scorpio answers and asks," Pisces, what brings you here?"
" I need to see Cancer," I reply, taking heavy breaths between each word. Just at that moment, Cancer looks up at me, while holding the same paper with the same elegant cursive that I have. Tears form in his eyes. Scorpio moves out of the way with his hands up. The rest of the boys look at us as we run into each other's arms. After hugging for a few seconds, another set of arms join us. I look up to be met with Perseus's sea-green eyes. He knows as well. Smiles continue as I realize that my family isn't just my brothers but, also my friends.
