FORTY ONE

"But I have my life, I'm living it. It's twisted, exhausting, uncertain and full of guilt, but nonetheless, there's something there."

===================================

Once we were back at the road with our new friend who was here against his will, and he didn't let us forget it. "I will have you kicked out of the pack, this is kidnapping!!" he said trying to pry Nymeria's iron grip off his hood. "Will you quick whining!" she hissed at him.

"I have every right to whine, you kidnapped me!" he said with anger then I said looked over at him, "Then you shouldn't have followed us" I smirked at him which made him only glare in return. He grumbled under his breath about how unfair we were being but I just ignored him.

"So what exactly are we waiting for?" I asked Nymeria with a tired gaze considering I hadn't slept in a while. She didn't answer me at all, she just looked up at the moon and closed her eyes. I would have asked again but I was too afraid to interrupt her, I mean she does have the power to kill me fifty times over. 

Then Wyatt turned to me and asked with pure fear and panic in his eyes, "Wait, didn't she try and kill you!!??" he screamed, fighting against Nymeria's grip, "Why are you helping her!!" he begged. I sighed, "She didn't try to kill me, it was a misunderstanding," I said getting very annoyed. "And I'm not helping her, she's helping me". This kid was younger than me by at least two years so why is he being so immature? was I ever like this?

I watched as a satisfied smirk worked its way onto Nymeria's face which confused me. But knowing her, I stayed quiet. "Alright, here we go," she said handing Wyatt's hood over to me and stepping forward. He looked at me for answers as to what she was doing but I could only shrug, not knowing myself.

She held her arms out and looked up to the sky with closed eyes, then suddenly a bright light flashed, blinding me. Then once it cleared I saw a strange looking car sitting in front of Nymeria. I stared at her and the car in shock.

She turned around and smiled at us and said, "Sorry, I had to channel energy" she spoke full of joy. I shook my head, scolding myself for not being used to this madness and started walking over to her. "So this is going to be our form of transportation?" I asked and she nodded.

Then I looked behind me and saw Wyatt with a shocked and scared look on her face and wasn't moving. "Hey! come on let's go" I said yanking on his hoodie, but he didn't move and the odd expression didn't leave his face. Nymeria sighed then walked over to him.

She stared at him for a second then suddenly smacked him across the face, "Get ahold of yourself!" she growled holding his shouldering and lightly shaking them, "Don't be too harsh" I said from behind her. His face fell then his eyes rolled to the back of his head and he fell to the ground out of shock.

I groaned, "This kid is annoying," Rhys said, more irritated then me, I agreed and threw him over my shoulder and walked him over to the car. "Sure we can't we leave him on the side of the road?" she asked opening the back door of the magic car for me to throw him in.

I sighed and said tossing him down, "I'm thinking about it" she laughed and said getting in the driver side and I followed. Once we were in and already driving, I stared out the window and asked, "Why'd you have to channel energy?" then she spoke with a calm voice, "Because, to perform magic, you have to channel the required magical energy for the task".

I turned my attention away from the window and looked back at her, "I thought witches were born with Magical energy" she smiled and said, "Most aren't, you have to be born from two witches to have a witch child, who has magic straight from birth" she went on, "My father was a witch but my mother wasn't, when I was eleven my father gave me magic using a Magna Gem"

I stared at her, listening as she went on, "A Magna Gem takes in power from the earth and when used correctly, can give someone magic abilities" she explained, "But pure bread witches are much more powerful with the right training, for example, Constance is a pure bread witch, that's why they are created mostly, for power" I stared at her in shock.

My mate, my Constance was a pure bread powerful witch. I knew we were paired for a reason, two creatures made for mass destruction, Beautiful love story don't you think?

I smiled to myself thinking about her, I missed her desperately. I can't wait to have her by my side again, I smiled widely at the thought. That only gave me the motivation to get this done and over with so I can have her back, but I know that would be a while from now.

"So what exactly do we have to get before we enter 'Hell'?" I asked looking back out the window, trying to distract myself with the scenery. "Nothing special, just an offering, since you're a Lycan, they'll keep you alive, but the offering will help keep you that way" she explained fast, turning onto the dirt road and entering a dark forest.

"What's the offering?" she smiled then said, "Just stop asking questions please" I glared at her and continued to look back out the window, thinking to myself. I found myself wondering what we're going to with Wyatt once we got to 'Hell'. Maybe Nymeria can take him back with her, that might be the safest option.

Nymeria then suddenly stopped the car and got out, "Stay here" she demanded with a stern look which I have grown to slightly fear, just a little bit. I leaned back in the seat and continued to look out the window and watch the sunrise.

That brought me back to when I first learned to trust Nymeria when she found me that night and that sunrise we saw. I felt bad knowing that only in a few hours, Miah would wake up to see that I was gone. She's gonna be so pissed when I get back, but hey this was all in the name of love and ending a war....but mostly love.

After what only felt like a few minutes, I jumped slightly when the car door opened. Nymeria had a creepy look on her face and was holding a small bag that I got a sudden strange vibe from. I raised my eyebrows in confusion and she smiled and opened the bag, letting strange colored jewels fall in her hand.

"What the hell are those?"

"Reaper Gems, made from Angels Blood"
