Yep, I'm The Outcast From The Sea. (Outcast Angelfish book 3)

I literally have no title for this chapter.

"Is Shirley here?" I ask, trying to start up a conversation.
"Ye, she's inside." He says.
Anne is moving around.
"Can Anne use the bathroom?" I ask.
"Um, sure" He says.
Max smiles at Anne and Anne runs in as quickly as she could.
"Have you gotten information about the hospital?" He asks.
I gulp.
"Ye.."
"I'm afriad my mum might've been hurt." Max says.
"Hi Jess!"
Shirley is behind Max.
Max smiles and blushes furiously.
"How are you?" I ask.
"Didnt sleep much last night but im okay." She replies.
"Damn I feel old.. when I dont get much sleep.. oh boy.. dont even mess with me." I say.
"Hey.. think about it Jess.. once you graduate you can get your dream job." Shirley tells me.
"Ye.. I know.." I say
"What is your dream job, Jess?" He asks.
"Well.. id like to be a Marine Biologist some day.." I say.
Was I wrong. ;)
"Oh, okay." Max says.
"I kinda like being in school tho.. I dont really want to graduate and I would probably be really busy if I became a Marine Biologist. Id have to quit my current job." I say sadly.

"Club red is just a part time job Jess.. Montengra works there full time though." Max says.
"I know but.. Montengra is the co owner of Club Red." I point out.
"That's true." He replies.
Anne walks out of the bathroom.
A police car arrives beside the house.
An officer exits the car and Max opens the door.
"How may I help you?" He asks the officer.
"Max Valleys?" The officer asks.
"Yes, sir." Max replies.
"I am very sorry to say this but your mother has died in the crane accident at the hospital" The officer says.
"Wait, what?" Max says confusedly.
He starts to tear up.
"No, you're Joking." He says.
"I am sorry but I am not Joking." The officer tells Max.

Max growls and his eyes turn into a blood red. Shit.Danger alert.
The officer takes a slight step backwards.
"She isnt dead. She cant be." Max says.
I could feel a dark presence around me.

"She's not dead." Max keeps on insisting.
"Im sorry.. but she is.." The officer replies.
Max collapses on his knees.
"No! NO!" He screams.
Anne steps backwards.
"Max. I know this bothers you alot but please note that your mother must have known about the accident, as she bas left you and your sister a note." The cop says gently to Max.
Annr frowns.
Max looks up at the man.
"Give me the note." He says.
The man hands Max the note and Max reads it.
All I could think is how Anne will ask questions and finally meet her sister..
Now she would know that people care about her. I truely did care about Anne. I barley knew who Lily was.
I had only brought her back foe the sake of Anne's hapiness.
As Max reads the note, he mumbles slightly aloud.

" Dear Children. I think my time will finally come today as I would love to tell you something but I'm sure you will find out soon enough. Please do not grieve because of my death, because my death was so expected. I'm sure you and your sister will do fine in life without me and I have already alerted a family that if my death is here,

they will take care of you. I love you, and don't ever forget that.

Love, mum."

Max crumbles the note and tears roll down his cheek.
I could definatly feel another presence. It wasnt just us. Max breaths in and out softly as he sobs. Anne and Shirley where both looking at Max, crying.
I wasnt crying.... Hey.. I am not a heartless person, but I couldn't find any tears to cry with. I was upset for Max and Lily but no tears came out of my eyes. Perhaps I had cried most of them when I was younger and there wheren't many left to cry.
I knew this scientifically wasnt true but ssh.
The officer reaches his hand towards Max. Max holds his breath.
"Sir no,please don't" He says, obviously afriad.
The exact moment the officer touches Max, Max switches to Brandon.
"Shirley run!" I blurt out. Shirley immediatly runs off.
Brandon attacks the officer and punches him, breaking his jaw. I could hear the crack of the jaw.
He geta off her and his eyes focus on Anne for a few seconds. He puches her hard and knocks her out instantly.
I was left there to look at Brandon.

His eyes are a pure blood red and they screamed anger. I wanted to fight but my limbs where weak. He pounces at me, knocking me to the floor and pulling out a knife.
A small hand holds his knife away from me just as he was about to stab me.
"No."
Lily's eyea gaze over Brandon's knife as Brandon looks at her.
"Don't even try it. Max would kill you." Lily says sharply to Brandon.
Brandon looks at Lily. He drops the knife.
Lily smiles.
"Good." She says
How was a little kid like Lily stopping Brandon from hurting me?

Suddenly he punches Lily in the face and knocks her backwards, out cold.
"NOBODY TELLS ME WHAT TO DO!" He shouts angrily.
He grabs the knife again and stanbs my hand, pinning it to the ground.
My eyes widen. He looks at me.
He doesnt speak at all but his eyes are full of hatred. I knew he wanted to kill me. I could feel the dark magic spreading from my hand, to my arm, then to my chest. I was really scared. It felt terrible. I was terrified.
Suddenly, Thunder strikes.
"Stop that right now!"
