Void (enderlox fanfic)

Chapter 16

HAPPY SPRING EVERYONE! I'm really sorry i haven't updated in some time. I blame my language arts teacher and my wet blanket-y friend who doesn't like me for who I am. For those of you who know what that means, I'm sorry if that offended people, but I could have said that much more detailed. It includes a baseball bat and a lighter. Yeah... I may or may not have gone to her house, left a note under her window, and left, creeping her out. Good think she doesn't know where I live... I'LL STOP TALKING ABOUT MY PERSONAL LIFE AND ON WITH DA STORY!

*sigh*. I push around my grits, not really hungry. Meg sits happily by my side, eating the grayish brown mush. I still din't get how she can eat that and not get sick. The others just say my dad had the same problem, saying enderdragons mainly eat meat, but I think it's something else.

Meg is my official owl. As in, she hasn't left my side. Landon told me how she never really trusted anyone but him and Gage. I almost spit out my grits and bust out laughing, saying that she talks to everyone. It still makes a lot of sense, though. When ever she talks, Sky, Jason, and Brice all look over in surprise, almost like they didn't know she could talk.

"Hey, Gage, how much longer till we have to go back to school?" I ask him one day, while we walk in the woods, looking for some food for me (apples!) "Well, Sky and Jason want us to be taken out of school and for you to be trained in the End, Meg to be trained in the forest, and for Brice, Landon, and I to be trained in the Nether." Fear grips my chest as it hits me. I'm going away from the only place I know (even if I hate it), and going to where I might find my family, where I belong, who I am really. "Also, I have to do this at least once before you go." Gage kisses my cheek lightly, making my cheeks turn a dark crimson/purple color. I dropped the apple i was holding. (A/N: if you guy's want, I could make Gage and Danny/Kana/Lyra's thing take off. You have to tell me in the comments, not in person *cough* MJ *cough*. ON WITH THE STORY!). I jump away, climb a tree, and put my chin on my knees. 'Ugh, what should I do?! Gage kissed me! We might be both boss mobs, but that's all.' I think to myself firmly, 'Danny, he really does love you. You'll crush him if you say anything to him!' Kana's voice echo's softly around my head. I can't help but know Kana's right. Even if I liked it, it wouldn't work. I give up, punch the tree harder than I mean to, leaving a fairly deep dent, and walk back, twiddling my thumbs behind my back.

With Meg happily curled up under my wings and arm, I lie there, debating with myself. I told Meg every thing, about the kiss, the tree, Kana, the endermen, and what Gage told me.

"Wait, you never knew about Gage! He told me and Landon all about you! Even I could tell he would break at one point!" I scowl at Meg, then ask her something, "Meg, what do you know about Gage's other side?". Her face scrunches up, than relaxes. "Well, his name is Lee, and Gage and him never get along. During their fights, they have no control over what they do. As in, Gage is strong, just he has no way to fight Lee without destroying something. That's how Sky found him. Him and Lee had just blown up a house were they used to live. Sky scooped him up, brought him here, and then came Landon, and then me."

"Wait, so Brice told you this?"

"Yup!"

"You do realize he hates me, right?"

"It's his way of saying hello. And he is mad your faster than him..."

Before she can keep ranting, Meg's covered by my wings, making a type of shelter. As her breath slows, I swear I see the glint of Gage's eyes, but it dashes off as soon as it appears.

Gage's POV (didn't see that coming, did ya?"

*groan* 'Well Gage, you've officially made the love of your life run off into the trees.' 'Ahh can it Lee. Like you could have done any better.' 'Uh, dude, you could have just asked me...' I scowl and storm off, knowing Lee's right. He's been disappearing lately, and i have a guess he knows Kana all too well.

I climb into my bed, and Brice sits in the edge of my cot. "Let me guess, you kissed Danny on the cheek, and she ran off, right?" I nod my head glumly. Brice is lucky. He's got everything. The heart, the bravery, the brains, and the looks. I'm stuck with sandy, pale red hair and a side that wants to kill/ruin my life.

Danny and Meg are talking, and Danny covers Meg with a wing. I'm just a bit taller than Danny, but Danny sees me as I hide. Ugh, now she things I'm a stalker. Once I get to my bed, I pass out, ignoring the world.
