Chapter 21: Uncle Devil John Is Here!

MID'S POV

I was in a room surrounded by darkness. Where am I? I turn around to see the girl that looked just like me. Luna. "Luna what's going on?"I ask. "Pueri, et lunam." she mumbled. "What?"I ask. "Pueri, et lunam." she mumbled again. I sighed in frustration. "I don't understand."I tell her. "Pueri, et lunam."she says more aggressively. "Pueri, et lunam." she says again. She is suddenly right in front of me, her eyes glowing silver and fangs in her mouth. I tried to step away in fright but I couldn't move. "Pueri, et lunam! Pueri, et lunam! Pueri, et lunam!"she yells over and over until it felt like my ears were bleeding.

I woke up with a gasp. What the hell was that? I think taking deep breathes. I look to my left and see it showed 3:45 a.m. on the clock. I'm not going to get anymore sleep, nice. I slowly push the covers off of me and head to the bathroom. I turn on the light and look at myself. I looked like death. Since the night I was tortured I haven't been able to get any sleep. My eyes fall to the bandage on my right side. I slowly lift up my shirt to see the giant white gauze covering all of my right side, blood seeping threw it. I start to peel it off, wincing at the tape pulling my skin, until it was finally all in my hand. I look to see... nothing.

Absolutely nothing. Just... smooth skin. No cut, no bruise or scar. Just... tan skin. Ok, I'm looking this up. But it the morning. I need sleep. I slowly let my tank top fall and head to my room I lay in my bed and let the familiar darkness take me.

ELENA'S POV

I was running around the house trying to get all of my stuff in a hurry. "Come on Jeremy, Mid. Going to school. Walking out the door NOW."I call up the stairs, stressing the now. Mid comes down the stairs in her pajamas. "Jenna, I'm not feeling so good. I'm gonna take a sick day."she says rubbing her head. Is she sick? She's never sick! What is she doing? Jenna nods. "Ya, sure. Just rest up."Jenna tells her then turns to me. "You forgot this."she tells me, handing me my math journal. I smile at her. "Thank you."I say as I open the door. I turn to leave to only come face to face with my Uncle John. He smiles at me. "Elena."he addresses me. "Uncle John. Hi."I say with a fake smile. "Jenna."he addresses then turns to see Mid at the stairs.

"Mid! Hi."he says, his smile widening. She just scowls at him, then turns going upstairs. I had to suppress a laugh at her attitude. He then turns to us again. "John. You made it."she says threw gritted teeth. "I said I'd be here by noon."John says while I glare at Jenna. John makes his way into the house, making me groan in my head. "Well what you say and what you do are entirely different things."Jenna retorts. Jeremy then comes down the stairs. "Uncle John, what's up?"he says not making eye contact with John. "Hey."John says but didn't get to finish as Jeremy slaps his back then heads outside. "I had some business in town. I thought a visit was in order."John tells us. Mid then comes down the stairs in regular clothes.

"You don't visit John, you appear. Infest would also be accurate."Mid comments going into the kitchen. Me and Jenna stifle laughs. "Well at least I don't raid peoples fridges until it's empty like a hungy wolf." John calls back. Mid stiffens a bit, but then just keeps walking, flipping him the bird as she enters the kitchen and out of sight. I had to smile a bit. "How long are you staying?"I ask. "I don't know yet." he answers. "Hmm. Well, I'm gonna go to school so... I'll see you later."I say with another fake smile. I look back at Jenna to see she has the same face as I, then she closes the door.

MID'S POV.

I walk back into the room just as John asks, "So what's up with Jeremy?" I lean against the door frame with my arms crossed. "He just lost a friend."I answer. Elena told me they found Vicki's body while I was at Damon's. Speaking of which, he has been acting really weird around me since then. I wonder why? "So try to be sensitive."Jenna adds, breaking me out of my thoughts. He scoffs. "i'm always sensitive."he answers. "Right. So really, how long are you staying."I ask with a scowl on my face. "Can you two at least pretend you're happy to see me?"he asks. "Oh, my god John. It's so good to see you. how have you been? No, no I really can't."Jenna answers. "Did you honestly think I was going to sign the escrow papers and send them back?"he asks.

Wait, what? "Mid, go into the kitchen. Please."Jenna tells me. I just nod. I walk into the kitchen but use my hearing to listen in. "Actually I did."Jenna answers. "I'm not gonna let you sell my brother's office."he tells her. I gasp. She was going to sell Dad's office? "It's not up to you or me. It belongs to Mid."she answers. "But she's a minor, so I get the final say, being that I'm the estates trustee."he retorts. I hear Jenna storm upstairs then head back to the living room. "Is she gone?"I ask. He turns to me and nods. I smile then jump into his arms into a hug. He lifted me up from the floor and spun me around. "Man! It's so good to see you Night."he says smiling. I giggled as he let me down. "Same here Uncle John.'I tell him. Ok, for those who are confused, I love my uncle John to bits. I don't hate him like everyone else because I'm just not like that to family.

"Now, why aren't you going to school? Because I know it's not 'cause you're sick. You never get sick. So, what is it?"he asks me. I sigh. "I have to do some research for things that Jeremy and Elena can't see... yet. So, just keep quiet please?"I ask. He nods. I kiss his cheek. "Thank you. See ya!"I call running up the stairs and into my room. I jumped on my rolling chair and pushed myself to my laptop. I pulled up Google and typed,

Pueri, et lunam.
