Jefflyn - Love Is A Strong Word

Chapter Fourteen

We finally made it to 1,000 reads! I just realized they're not called views... Haha. And we're already to Chapter Fourteen! That's awesome! I honestly don't know how many chapters there will be, but let's just say we're halfway there!

Haha, I hope you all enjoy this chapter!

Travis' POV

Watching Jeffory's dream, scared the crap out of me. I know, I probably shouldn't be invading peoples personal space, but it was too tempting. The last three days have been crazy. I finally figured out the girl with orange hair's name is Lucinda.

She's a witch, and perhaps with the power both of us have, we could stop Aaron once and for all. But I know she wouldn't accept the offer of trying to murder someone with her witchcraft and my demon powers. Yes, I have demon powers. It should be obvious considering it's almost impossible to kill millions of people while just being a human. My father is crazy.

One day when he was practicing trying to control the powers he had, the power backfired, and it still haunts me today that my father killed her. My very own mother. I watch from afar as a crowd of people exit the hospital building. And a girl with fiery red hair and baby blue eyes makes me stare far too long. Her cheeks are stained with tears, a wad of tissues held tightly in her right hand. I need to know her name.

She looks similar to Lucinda, besides the darker hair and blue eyes. I watch closely as she sits down on one of the benches, and a younger looking man sits down next to her. He wraps his arm around her shoulder, and I know he said something to lighten the mood when her shoulders shake from both laughter and tears. "You should stop staring, it's getting creepy." Lucinda.

I turn around, and there's a smirk on this girls beautiful face. What? I can't help but notice how attractive women can be. I raise an eyebrow, biting the inside of my cheek. I should ask her. "You're a witch, right?" I say, and she nods slowly, a confused look planted on her face.

"I know you want revenge on Aaron Lycen. I know it was my Father that put you through all of this pain. But he's already dead. A long lost nightmare. Aaron Lycen is going to become just like my Father, and if you want to live the rest of your life without too much worry, we need to stop him." I finish the sentence with a desperate look on my face.

She hesitates for a moment, thinking over her options and probably thinking about her once amazing family. "I'll do it. But if we both make it out alive, you have to do a favor for me." She says, an almost triumphant smile on her face. I don't know if I will regret ever shaking hands with this woman, but if it means ending Aaron, all is well.

Joslyn's POV

In a small span of two hours, Jessie fully explained her life story to us. From moving place to place, making new friends and leaving some behind. Never getting a full education, but becoming really good at self defense. She also explained to us that she took some of our Mom's genes, meaning she is strong, but we look so different that I don't believe her.

I mostly got Dad's genes, meaning really long legs and a hotheaded personality. Yet still I'm somehow shorter than Gold. Groaning, Gold leans his head against a tree while Jessie stands there awkwardly. "Are we just going to sit here?" She asks, and I look up at her, a blank look on my face.

I don't mean to be rude, but I haven't gotten any sleep for the past two-ish weeks. I'm tired, angry, and hungry. "Let me take a power nap Ms. 'I get a good eight hours of sleep every night'." I groan at her, my eyes becoming droopy. "Well, I have Landon going to find Jeffory... And there's a motel down the road aways... Let's go." Jessie says, and I feel like I'm sleepwalking, but thank goodness Gold is supporting me or I would've fallen over. Jessie leads the way, and we watch as the sun rises.

Meaning a new day... New chances to make things better. Good luck Jeffory.

Jeffory's POV

It was just a dream... Just a dream. I keep trying to reassure myself, but I know it's no use. I saw Katelyn, lying dead on only a metal table. I was the one who killed her. I shouldn't have lied to her, I should've told her I loved her. My whole body is shaking, not from the cold but from tears. I've never cried this badly in my life, not even when my parents said they were getting a divorce.

Standing up, I take in a deep breath. Positive thoughts. She'll be okay. We'll be okay. I watch as the sun rises over the mountains, partially blinding me, but warming my skin. I continue walking down the side of the road, and I see buildings. How did I not see them before? I ignore the thought, taking longer strides so I don't waste anymore time.

Every second wasted is a second without Katelyn. And she means everything to me. 100 yards. 30 yards. The closer and closer I get. I wrap my fingers around the vial in my pocket, hope making its way back to me. I catch sight of the hospital, a stupid grin resting on my face. I walk through the parking lot, and I stand before the entrance of the hospital. Two weeks of guilt. One year of pain.

I've come to save Katelyn, and see her again.

Hey guys! That was Chapter Fourteen, and I hope you all enjoyed it!

Travis: I'll probably regret this.

Jessie: Years of searching, and I've finally found them.

Aaron: I know I will be ended soon, but at least I'll be with Aphmau. Even though she hates me...

Jeffory: It's time.
