The Awakening

Chapter 14- Ean

     After Clark finished beating me- as promised- he put me to work. I shifted into a wolf-my favorite form- and worked my way through many obstacles. By the end of my training Clark was impressed enough to clap me on the shoulder. He sent me off to my room with Ryan and I showered and took a much needed nap.

     I woke up to an incessant knocking at my door. When I answered it I found Ryan and Delana waiting for me. "Hurry up- we don't have much time!" I was confused. "Time for what? Delana whats going on?" Delana looked just as worn out as me but simply told me to come with them. So, being the naive little boy I am- I followed.

     Ryan led us up a whole crap ton of stairs to a simple iron door. "Great, now what genius!" Ryan gave me a look and Delana slapped me. "Shut up! Our voices echo!" Too late...

     "They're at the gate! Hurry up men!"

  

     "Shoot! They found us!"

     "Get the key and hurry!!"

     Ryan grabbed a key ring from his pocket. There were three keys- just great. Ryan tried them and luckily got it on the second try. When he got the door unlocked we all pushed as hard as we could. When it was open enough for us to fit one at a time we started squeezing through. Ryan went first to check it out. I shifted forms to fight off the Spears as they came at us. Delana tried to make me go through but I refused and made her go first. When it was my turn I ran like crazy- we made it!

     I spoke to soon... When we got through we were greeted by Satan. "Well, well, well, what do we have here? Runaways? Now I can't have that, can I?" That was a retorical question, but Delana took it upon herself to answer it anyways.

********

-Delana-

     I don't know what made me do it, maybe the fear or anger towards Satan, but I answered his question. "Runaways? From Satan? What would people think of you then?" Satan sneered at me and I stuck my toungue out at him. "I am getting sick of your attitude little girl!" I mock pouted. "Aww poor wittle Satan." Ryan jabbed me with his elbow.

     Ean, I need you to run with Ryan when I say.

     What?! No, are you crazy?! I'm not leaving you!

     You won't have a choice.

     What do you mean?

I didn't give myself time to think about what I was doing as I walked towards Satan. "Is the big, bad Satan getting angry?" I lifted my hand to slap him but he grabbed my wrist before I could make contact. "You are going to regret your words, little girl, when I show you how bad I can be." I paled at the thought and he smirked, satified with my fear.

     Run! Now!

Ean nipped at Ryan's legs to get him running and they were off. Within a minute they were out of sight and safe from Satan. I on the other hand...
