Chapter Nine: Together Against the World
I stumbled against the bed as Zazeeal dropped me through the window. "Ow," I yelled at him. Turning my gaze dropped to my feet when i saw Xavier standing in the doorway.
"Nova, who is your friend?" His voice sounded curious, with a tid bit of anxiety. He was scared. I could see it in his eyes. That was another talent of mine. It was liek i could see into people's souls. Their thoughts, their memories, their feelings. I am crazy. I'm a idiot.
"Um.. No one. Goodnight." I pushed him out the door and slammed it closed. "Oh my gawd! Zazeeal! What does this mean? Does he know what you are? What is going to happen?" I ran to the window, watching him hover over Xavier's belated swimming pool.
He was staring at something, but i couldn't tell what. I craned my neck around the side of the sill, trying to see what it was. "Stand back," He said.
"What? What is it?" I was half-way out of the window now, but still could see nothing.
Pushing against the window, i toppled out reaching my arms in front of me to catch me fall. And there again was Zazeeal, "Nova," He hissed. "I told you to stand back!" He stuffed me back into the room like a ragdoll.
I gasped as i realized what i saw. My eyes wide and my jaw on the floor, i gaped at Zazeeal. "Oh my." I fell back a coupled of steps.
I grasped for the bed. "I told you! Now stay back."
"What is it?"
"Nova! Hush! Don't move."
His mouth flew open as lime green goo trickled from the gaping hole. "ZAZEEAL," I screamed as i ran with my arms outstretched.
He fell backwards, right onto the ground. The next few seconds went by in a blur.
I jumped out the window, pouncing on the creature, like a was a lion and this was my prey. It doubled over in pain. It threw back its head, screaming in agony.
I looked at my hands to see them glowing with a flourescent, blue. They shone as brightly as water on a summer day.
I glanced up at the creature's back. It shone blue, the same color as my hands. What is happening?
It turned, angry with the motions i had made. It's horns scrapped against my arm, opening a gash along my forearm. I shrieked and backed against the wall. My first thought was to yell for Zazeel, but..
My mouth opened and words i didn't quite understand came out. The creature threw back it's head, releasing an angonizing roar. I covered my ears and remembered my screaming power.
The sound traveled up my throat, but didn't reach my lips. A voice boomed through my ears, harmonizing with the monster. "Be gone with you!"
I closed my eyes and worked around the side of the house, passed the corner and into the window. My ears still covered, i ran out the door and began searching for Xavier. I looked through the entire house, but never finding nothing.
Then i remembered Zazeeal's words. 'I think he is a demon.'
I gaped at a photograph hanging on the wall by a slim nail. It was Xavier when he was little. Well, i guess it wasn't really Xavier. It was a demon. Great. Well, it makes sense. He changed his personality strangely fast.
The picture was of Xavier and his mom. She had an arm wrapped around his shoulders as he sulked to the side of the park grass. He was so cute, but now he is a monster that killed Zazeeal.
I stared at the picture a little longer before running out of the house and throwing open Xavier's car door. I slid into the seat and slammed the door. Wait! I should take Zazeel's body.
I pushed open the door and jumped out. Running around the house, i kept a lookout for the monster. I jumped over a fallen log that was liek a easy bridge across a ditch. I ran behind a tree and watched as a bird flew out.
I made my way to Zazeel's limp body. I pulled on his arm, dragging him to the car as fast as i could, which wasn't very fast. I pushed him into the back seat, flinching everytime my hands touched his skin. I expected to see hand prints, but of course, i didn't.
I closed the door and quietly slipped into the driver's seat. I blew my hair out of my eyes as i started the engine. Almost instantly, i saw Xavier running from the exact spot from where Zazeeal laid, unconcious.
"So, it was you," i said to myself.
I slammed my foot on the gas pedal super fast. I drove the vechicle around the driveway, barely missing Xavier's hand as he grasped for the door handle. I sped down the highway, tears blurring my vision.
