The Mystery of Scarlett

Chapter 30: Lycos

We had finally arrived at Lycos. 4 days of torture by dealing with Amara and Ryan, Nate and Aubrey, and Maddie and Trent. Obsidian and I are the only couple that hasn't been arguing non-stop. I stepped off my horse and took in the scenery. I stretched my legs and arms.

"We're here." I announced.

Everyone stopped bickering and looked around.

"This is it?" Amara said disappointed, "Where's the castle?"

I laughed, currently we were in a field of flowers and there was no castle near us, only a small cabin where Jay was waiting for us. "We have to go there." I said, I pointed to the cabin near us.
I started walking towards it and everyone followed my lead, stepping off their horses. We arrived at the doorstep, and I took a breath and knocked on the door.

Knock, knock.

"Jay"

Knock, knock.

"Jay."

Knock, knock.

"Jay."

The door opened to reveal my little brother, Jay. It was odd to call him that, since we both technically were the same age.

"Hey Jay bird." I said.

"Hey Scarlett Letter." Jay replied back.

We both hugged, and I realized how much I missed him.

Who's the guy that looks like he wants to kill me?

Either Obsidian or Michael.

Michael? That douchebag still in love with you?

Yup.

You always had to many guys chasing you.

Well, now I have my little brother to fend them off.

Of course. So Obsidian? You guys together.

Yeah. He's my soulmate.

Wow, a soulmate. Isn't that like your 34th one?

Hey! I live a lot of lives, I get a lot of soulmates, not my fault.

What about you?

No girlfriend, and not interested. I'm a single pringle.

Or you can't get a date.

I can get a date.

You sure?

Yes. Positive.

Okay whatever you say.

You brought Trent?

I didn't want to. Believe me.

So why did you?

Maddie.

Ah Maddie, it's surprising Trent even has a soulmate.

What you mean is that it's suprising that Trent has a soul.

Along with Miranda.

Hey they're your family.

Really, you're gonna try to pull that one on me. When you hate them too.

They are part of your bloodline, not mine.

Yeah that's right who knows where you come from.

Hey! I'm an angel.

Or a demon, no one really knows.
