Am I Human?

Chapter 32

[Third Person Pov]

"Oh, there you are, Ryder."

Days have past after the fight and Qew slowly rebuilds itself. People started working hard to fix the kingdom again. Thanks to Ashley, peace came upon the World of Xtras, but it wasn't for eternal. Other killers began to slowly rise up, trying to take over Cheshire Cat's throne.

Ryder walked passed the bed of flowers, roses, sunflowers, orchids. He was in the garden not far from the castle. Ashley used to come here, but he didn't know why.

He slowly pushed his legs upwards, flying into the air. He stood there, quietly watching the view from above. Darkness covered from one end to another. The dark sky decorated with small, glowing dots. It seemed so empty, but yet beautiful.

"What do you want?" he asked coldly. He didn't have to look down to know whose voice it is. She flapped her dragon wings and flew up beside me.

"What do I want? I was just worried and I cared about you."

"Ya, whatever," he said plainly as he rolled his eyes. He knew that the half reptile liked him, but he didn't feel that same way back.

After the fight with Amelia, Ashley passed out and hadn't woke up. He tried pulling her back to reality, but was blocked by a wall full of madness. Now, they can't really do anything allow time to heal her and do the rest.

"You look so sad, colder than before, is it because of Ashley? She hasn't wake up yet, right?" The half reptile commented, "Maybe, you know, she's.."

"Can you shut up and enjoy the view?" Ryder asked as he sent her a sharp glare with his brown eyes. 'Cold?' he thought, 'Speaking from the one that glares at girls who hangout with me everytime.'

"I won't shut up," She said sternly and crossed her arms. She was trying to play hard to get, she was the game, he was the player, but this player hated the game.

He sighed and turned around, heading back to the castle, away from Seline. Ryder didn't want to put up with her shit. He turned around and he felt a tug on his shirt, but knew who held it back and immediately pulled it out of her grip.

"There you are!"

He looked down as a familiar voice spoke. He slowly flew towards his navy blue haired friend who stood there, tapping his feet impatiently.

"What do you want, Jay?"

"You should go see Ashley, she's been grumbling something in her sleep and it's creeping me out."

Ryder eyes widen, in the blink of an eye, he was gone. Flying faster than anyone had seen him fly before, he flew through the hallways and past the pillars. Panting, he finally got to her room. He slowly opened the door, greeted by Ruby. Her red eyes flashed with fear, she didn't know what to do. She hobbled along crotches and went over to the couch. She had broke a few bones in her body when she last met the Cheshire Cat.

"Stop!" Ashley mumbled in her sleep.

He sat next to her and closed his eyes, squeezing them shut, trying to read what was going on in her mind.

Everything was black. Darkness like a thick blanket wrapped around me, the silence was suffocating. He kept walking until a young girl appeared. Her jet-black hair that reached all the way to her back was messed up. Her hazel brown eyes full of fear. She was lost.

"Who..are you?" she asked, as she took a step back, accidentally stepping into a puddle of black, sticky water. She tried to pull herself out but the dark liquid sticked to her feet, slowly pulling her down.

Ryder quickly reached out and grabbed her hand, pulling her out. Pulling her back.

His eyes shot opened as beads of sweat rolled down his face. Turning to the jet-black haired girl who was lying on bed was now awake. She sat up, a confused look on her face.

"You're back." He pulled her into a hug. Hugging her tightly, but something felt odd. She wasn't hugging him back.

He pulled away and looked into her eyes. Her face didn't showed any emotion but her eyes showed all different kinds of feeling, mostly confusion.

"Ashley?"

He asked worriedly. There was something wrong, really wrong. He looked over at Ruby who was now happy to see her friend awake, but the happiness was replaced by a frown when her eyes met Ryder's. The confused girl scanned the room, then opened her mouth to speak.

"Who are you?"

The end of "Am I Human?"
