The Seven

PART 1

"GO! GO! GO!" Scarlett practically screamed as Olivia and Nora readied their weapons for battle. Sarah, Melanie and Alexia were posted on the other side of the room fighting a dangerous war against Ryan, Dylan and Jayden. Quickly, Nora grabbed her bow and arrow and shot one merciless shot at Jace that luckily zoomed straight passed his arm only grazing the surface of his skin instead of piercing him. The keen arrow left his arm with a pattern of dark dyed blood oozing from the cut. 

Scarlett on the other hand already has her hands full with the dangerous he, known as Bryson but her alone wasn't enough. She summoned Nora for backup and without a question in her mind; Nora sped towards them ready for the kill. Sarah predicted all of Ryan's moves prior to his attack so she was as ready as child reaching the front of the line at an ice cream truck. Fortunately for her, she was able to stop all the kicks and punches thrown at her because of her gift of vision, except for one. Ryan pulled at her leg from underneath her as he crawled through the inside of the floorboard like a stealthy predacious animal. After only a second, Sarah was down and defeated. "Woman down!" Olivia yelled to the rest as Alexia and Melanie hurries to Sarah's rescue. As Scarlett saw Sarah down, she thought to herself that she had no choice but to unleash the demon inside. Her eyes started glowing luminously and fire was escaping through her palms making it look like a blowtorch (with less of a blue flame of course). She fired at Ryan and Ryan flew straight into the white washed wall of the house, creating a colossal hole in the wall as the rocks and little bits of wall crumbled down after him.

Melanie was next in the tough battle. Her opponent Dylan shot towards her with full force. She always made fighting him look so easy, which is why I wasn't surprised that she was winning. One quick scream of hers sent Dylan off passing right through the ceiling. Her screams were like a banshee; she could kill anyone who approached her effortlessly with her wail. A few moments later, Dylan came shooting back down from the chimney that he'd been trapped in and sighed in defeat.

Last to fight was Alexia. She looked completely harmless in a situation where you have to fight her, as if she was all about non-violence and what not. Jayden started sprinting towards her and just as she saw him approach her, she grinned deviously. Just before Jayden laid a finger on her, she sped upwards tremendously fast, climbing the walls and gathering a sticky stretchy rope as she ran. With the rope in her hand, Alexia ran around him, wrapping him in a cocoon of rope. The thing about Alexia is that she ran so fast that you could almost imagine her starting a tornado if she were outdoors and you could definitely feel the cool air brush past you as she ran. 

Finally I was up, against Tyler. I went at him with Sypris (a lovely bracelet that wraps around my arm and can come to life as a venomous snake when I need it to) as it unwrapped from my arm tackling Tyler to the ground and knotting his arms and legs together. 'The battle has been won and all the men are down' I said to myself proudly.

"Great job guys!" I commended as I went to help the girls up. Tyler congratulated the boys for their efforts but was upset over their defeat and his ego being shut down.

"I told you I could beat you; more than once actually. Remind me why you still try?" I said as I looked at Tyler boastingly as I laughed.

"Our day will come boys." He declared dramatically with his fist in the air as he too laughed.

"Not whilst we're here." I retaliated with a playful smirk.

"How did you even train them to be this good anyways?" He asked.

"It's just pure talent I tell you." I answer.

"Anyway..." he extended the word, "Who's cooking today?"

"Agh Tye! You're always so hungry." I teased. "But lucky for me, you're cooking cause I did yesterday." I practically sing as I walk away happily and he sighs in defeat.

Tyler walks straight to the kitchen to start preparing the meal, and following behind him are Liam, Jace, Ryan, Dylan, Jayden and Bryson. I'm sure you're wondering who Tyler really is, and he is my boyfriend. We met about five years ago when he transferred to the same agency I work in. Just in case you were confused, he's just like me and has his own personalities that technically match mine. Therefore, each of them has their pair with my girls Olivia, for example has Jace, and the rest have their pairs. Pretty much every one they fought against are their significant pair, all due to the fact that we try to train them in a way where they're forced to fight against someone they are close to so they learn not to develop attachments to the extent where they can't fight for a given reason. What you just witnessed was a training session of course. We also constantly keep active so we can be in good shape for battle and to stay in the agency because that place is crazy competitive and we'd probably be kicked out if we weren't the best we could be.

Whilst Tyler began to cook, the boys helped him with several things to speed up the process because we were all starving. Bryson started to heat up the stove so that everything is heated to start cooking. Meanwhile, the rest of them helped with chopping and mixing. The food is ready in less than 10 minutes and it smells delicious. Tyler and the boys cooked an impressive but simple meal. They made a spaghetti Bolognese with a light salad on the side, and for desert, I helped out and made some churro's just to treat the family to something sweet. When the food was off the stove, Tyler and I set the table whilst the girls and boys finishedup in their rooms and came out. "You know you guys should be helping set the table at least." I scold the girls.

"Nooo. We're lazy." Alexia and Sarah exaggerate.

"Okay guys, voila!" Tyler says whilst serving us.

"Smells amazing Tye. You sure you cooked it?" Scarlett says playfully.

We all eat in silence and practically gulp down our meals, I'm actually not sure if I saw a few of the boys chewing their food in fact. Afterwards, the girls and boys go back inside to prepare to all get into food comas whilst Tyler and I clear the table and put the dishes in the sink. Melanie kindly helps me wash the dishes before going back into her room, such a sweet girl. By ten, we were all done and ready to head to our room.

Now, before I head off, I just want to let you know, when I say the boys and girls rooms, I mean our brains. You see, they live inside our heads. In the limbic system to be precise which is the part of our brain that controls emotion. Unfortunately for them, they can only move so far around my body so they are literally always locked up in their rooms. When they're out, they walk out and slowly grow into people my height or Tyler's as they come out. They can come out from anywhere on our upper bodies, though they mostly come from the head and back. Anyways, Tyler and I head to our room to get a good nights rest because we both have to prepare mentally and physically to go to the agency tomorrow. Oh how I hate going there.
