I run as fast as I can away from the king,  he chases me in my blue and gold gown,  still covered in the blood of the fallen, the wind breeze floods on to my faces as I inhale more air,  the snow glistening as it falls to great the ground gently, I fall again I turn to come face to face with the king and his scared face,  before he strikes, howling erupts from the other side of the tree,  out of now we're wolves pounce at the king,  dragging him of his horse and yet again the once white snow turns crimson,  with the blood of another.

I waken frantically,  trying to grasps my breath.  "Sis!  Sis!  Is every thing okay! " Suddenly the sheeted walls move and my brother appear,  "Fred,  Edward, Jackson I'm sorry if I woke you up I just...." I pause I just had the same dream from last night " I just had a nightmare. I'm fine" I lie,  "are you sure we heard screaming" Edward says looking upset,  his light copper brown hair tied back and green eye filled with worry.  Edward was always able to tell when I was lying. 

"I'm positive" I replied trying to sound as truthful as ever "sis you were jumping and twisting in your sleep" Fred said suddenly,  'I was? ' I wondered I had always been a peaceful sleeper I never snored or made a sound when sleeping,  a look of worry fell on there faces.  Jackson sat on the bed beside me and rubbed my back.  "Im..  I'm fine.  I've just been stressed that's all,  I replied.  But it would make me feel better if we moved our beds close together...  Like old time" I said with an unsure smile.  I didn't really liked sleeping alone,  it's the main reason why there were sheeted walls in the first place.

"Hmmm" They all look at each other.  "Alright" Fred said "no problem with me" Jackson said "let get to it" Edward said throwing a duvet on the grounds,  Fred grabbed the pillows and Jackson grabbed more duvets to pull over us,  and we fell back asleep. 

"GET UP GET UP YOU'VE MISSED THE BUS!!" Mother was screaming through the house "GET UP" we woke up drowsy rubbing our eye,  and then frantically ran about the house,  "we're so late! " Fred screamed "were is my tooth brush!" Shouted Percy they were all panicked were I was ready all I needed was food, Jackson ran past me looking for his heart rate monitor, "looking for something Jackson " My dad held up his monitor, it was cover in mud and  ... Dirt...   " I found it out in the field last night,  seams you dropped it after doing chores " Dad said one eyebrow raised.  He too had noticed Jackson Strange behavior.

"Yeah" Jackson said rubbing The back of his neck "yeah I guess I did" He said looking down and guilty,  Jackson had not been doing his chores,  me and Fred had been doing them together to cover for him. Of course my mum and dad didn't know but they suspected.  "Go get ready son you late for school" I scoffed,  trying not to laugh at my brother.

Philip walked in "lucky you missed to day I can drive you all into school" He said with a cup of tea in hand.  "Yeah like were going to school in that mom car of yours" Fred said laughing "hey it's the only car that could fit us all,  grunted Percy has to get in the boot when, we all need to go places but it's only you guys I'm taken so it should be fine" Once you get Philip started he never stops.

When we arrived at school it was already break time,  Ian Marcel and Nick we're all out side waiting for.. Jackson. This unusualness began to make me anxious,  my brother never like Ian before,  not until he had joined the student Council.  Ian was tall,   his hair was long almost to his chin and the color was ash brown he had a skin fade. His face was defined with chiseled jaw,  his eyes  we're cool gray and stood out amongst everyone else.  He was every girls dream and he dated every girl.

That is why Jackson hated him,  he was a playboy.  I didn't understand how Jackson could suddenly be best mates with him, it made no sense at all.  I had my suspicious.  maybe Ian had threatened him, taken a horrible video of him just to black mail him,  but I doubt he did.  Jackson wouldn't have been that..  Easy.  I watch them,  Ian leading them in to the building. I consider following,  but after last time I decided not to.

I walked around the building and went to my usual spot and sat untill the bell had went and returned to class, "Seri! Seri!" I herd Philip calling me,  what in the world was he still doing here,  he was supposed to leave half an hour ago.  It was the I seen Edward and Percy following behind,  I knew something was wrong.  "What's wrong what going why are you here and why are you out of class!?!? " I replied Frankly.  "It's Jackson."

We rushed out all of us,  Edward was already out with jackson. My older brother bone was showing, "Jackson and ambulance was on it way" Edward was telling him "keep your eyes open.  I seen Ian and his little gang in the corner,  I was filled with rage and hate.  " WHAT the HELL did you do to him" I scream,  Percy rush to hold me back,  "WELL You were the LAST ones with him!! " My screaming had drawn a crowd of students out side.  "It was only a game" Marcel spoke up"A GAME my older brother's  bone is showing,  what the hell!! " My screaming had alerted jackson in to what was going on.  " SERENITY" i froze,  it had been months since my brother had used my full name. 

Philip wasn't amused that I was shouting,  he walked over and grabbed me by the arm showing his back to Ian's gang,  " I think you should go with jackson to the hospital,  he doesn't look to good" He whisper. " No shit Sherlock it's there faults" I pointed straight at Ian group, "I understand that and I will deal with it,  but at the minute your brother needs you now go" I walked over to the ambulance and got in with Jackson.

When we arrived at the hospital Jackson  was rushes in to the emergency room,  I followed quickly behind however was not allowed past the door. I herd the horrid screams of my older brothers bones being broken and reassembled, I listened for an hour and a half,  before my father rushed in and my other brothers behind him.  They must have seen how disturb in was because they all crowded round me. 

"He's being screaming for and hour or so now" Paused not know what to say next,  noticing mother wasn't there I questioned it,  "we're is..  Mother?" I asked my father.  "I told her to wait in the car,  I don't think she would be able to handle the screaming of your brother" I replied and went of to look for a doctor.  "Edward what happened?" Percy asked.  "I seen it happen,  I lent them lacrosse sticks and they went of and played a bit,  when I came out Ian crashed in to Jackson,  and well...  Jackson didn't get back up" Edward explained. 

I walked over and look in through the window,  Jackson's ginger hair was soaked wet with sweat and I could see him panting heavily.  Philip took my shoulder and lead me away from everything out side.  I seen Marcel and Nick waiting.  "Wait here" Philip went over and spoke with both Marcel and Nick calmly. I how ever found my self sissy and unable to stand straight,  I was just about to fall when...

Thud!  "Hey are you okay" Ian Black had just caught me.  I struggle out of his grip and stood as still as possible,  look at the ground avoiding all eye contact.  "I'm fine,  I don't need your help" Philip must have seen what had happened because he rushed over as quick as possible,

  "Hello there,  I'm Philip Fulbuster Jackson and Serenity and the others,  older brother"." Yes I'm aware" Philip and Ian shook hands "I see you have come to see my brother" Philip sounded out of tone,  almost restrain "yes I was seeing if he was going to be alright,  seems he's going to have a 'quick' recovery" He replied "I have my doctor looking after him,  he's going to be fine" Relief breezed over me.  "Thank you that's very kind" Philip replied and then elbowed me,  "yes thank you" I said through my teeth  still angry with him over him being irresponsible. We watch him and his goons walk of out of the hospital and slowly followed behind.

I watched Marcel and Nick run in to the forest while Ian took his Jeep.  "What the hell was that" I said to my brother "clam down Seri and remember your place,  do not swear at me" My brother was furious but not at me,  I didn't feel directed at me.  "Go sit with mother I'm going to sit with our brothers and see how Jackson is doing" He  said calmly.  "Alright... Philip,  everything's going to be okay isn't" I questioned unsure. 

"Yeah it is don't worry little sis" Philip bent down and gave me a converting hug,  tears left my eyes and I started breaking down all the emotions I hadn't be fighting earlier suddenly brought up,  my mother came out of the car and walked over to me "let's go sit in the car dear,  here" My mother handed me a tissue And lead me two the car,  after an hour of crying,  I finally feel asleep and before I knew it we we home.
