Your Chance( DISCONTINUING)

Chapter 15

 

Zane POV

   We continued to walk after that. It was silent. There was still so many questions lingering around. And I don't think Travis is convinced that easily of me accepting him.

"Hey, Zane." Travis said.

"What's wrong?" I ask.

"You know how I told you about my mom." He paused." Well, the truth is that my mom was an angel in disguise. My father was the one that killed her. My father says I'm like my mom. A lot. I really do miss her. That bothers him. He would scold me about getting a strong person to consume. So, I can be more stronger. I'm that weak."

He paused and I stare at him with sympathy.

"Travis. But that is not what being strong is about." I said and he stares at me with wide eyes.

"It means to take risks and accept yourself. Protecting your loved ones." I say.

"I have done a horrible job with that. I don't even try. I can't save anyone." Travis said.

"That's not true. You saved my life. You were the one that called the hospital. When you saw me lying there. Didn't you?"

"I..." Travis says.

"Thank you." I said and smiled.

"Sor_ Your welcome." Travis smiled.

I held onto his hand. I feel like my bond with him grew deeper. I'm surprised of myself for saying such things. I guess if that's what being strong means. Then, I will become stronger. Because I have someone to love.

Travis grip on my hand was tighter. I stare up ahead and saw light.

"The exit!" I pointed.

   I ran towards it with Travis holding onto my hand. When I got out of the the flashing light I saw Veon and Sparky sitting down next to each other, looking miserable. I see a portal standing I front of them.

"Where is Vylad?" I asked.

     Veon stared at me with worry in his expression. Then he turned his head around with a gulp. Sparky looked at Veon, then at me.

"He_um.. Got captured." Sparky said standing up.

"Which way did they take him?" I ask.

"That way." Sparky pointed to my right.

    I looked at Travis who had his Helmont on. How did he wear that without me noticing?

"Who is that?!" Veon said.

"He_"

"An enemy. Zane defeat him." Sparky demanded.

"Um, no. He is an ally. My ally." I said.

"Who is he?" Sparky said.

"I promise I will tell. If you don't kill him." I said.

"Fine."

"Travis," I said quickly.

"Travis?"

"Travis."

"Oh Travis."

"Travis." Sparky said again.

Travis POV

I stare at this guy named Sparky that had a Strange aura around him. He gave me a chill down my spine. Scary. I looked at Zane. Do I deserve to be his friend? He is so amazing, but who knows Zane could say cheesy things? I chuckle beneath my Helmont. Do I love him?

Zane and Sparky turned to me.

"First we gotta prepare. Vylad is most likely taken to the castle. Travis, do you know a place where we can train?" Sparky asked.

    I try to think of a place, where was near, and there was no guards around. From what I know from the castle was that my dad knew they were here. So, this has to be one of the places my dad doesn't checks. Grandmas place! She has a lot of training material.

"Let's got to my Grandmas place. She has a lot of training material." I said.

"But what about you us? Isn't she gonna... You know?" Veon trailed off.

"No. She is human. Know one knows she is alive. plus, the place is safe." I said and they followed behind me.

      Just today before the party. I visited her. I told her about that my dad finding about my lover. I told her that I'm afraid of my friends dying because of me. She told that I no longer have those dull look in my eyes. And said I have light. There is hope, she said.

    We arrived at the area. I took a step forward to the door and knocked on it. I take a deep breath. Maybe, she is taking a nap. I soon footsteps slowly becoming louder one by one. The door opened and I see grandma.

"Travis, how many times did I tell you just to come in when you like?" She said.

I handcuffed my hands together,"I have guests with me," I said. I took a step to the side and grandma was shocked to see them here. Maybe, it was because they are humans.
