Shattered

23

I feel something start to crawl in my blood, and I groan. Kaleb looks at me confused, and I roll my eyes. "I'm tired of being a bloody witch." I say, and he looks at me guiltily. "There are some bright sides to it." He says. "Not for me. I haven't had powers since I was six months old, so I haven't gotten to explore the 'gifts if witchery'. All I got was a hand in the sacrifices." I say, and he sighs. "Want me to show you something?" He asks, a bright smile in place. "Sorry, dude. I don't do that with people I just met." I say sarcastically, and he rolls his eyes. "You know that's not what I meant." He replies. I smirk and nod.

His phone dings, and his smile falls to a grimace. I watch his eyes avoid mine for a second, then he looks up to me, shame clear in his eyes. Kaleb leads me to the floor, and we both sit down. "Alright. Close your eyes." He says, cheerfulness covering many unappreciated emotions. I look at him wearily for a second, then shrug my shoulders as if that gets away my concern.

He grabs my hand, and I pull away, and shoot my eyes open. "It's okay, Oli. Trust me." He says. I look for a hint of anything I don't like, but find nothing. I close my eyes again, and release my breath. He puts my hands in his once more, and I focus on my breathing.

All of a sudden, out of now where, I feel pain. Not just an ache. A searing pain. It starts in my wrist, then travels further up my body. I open my mouth to scream, but no sound comes out. I open my eyes, and see Kaleb with his eyes closed, blood dripping from his nose, foreign words coming from his lips. I look at his lips, then back to his now open eyes. "I'm sorry." He says, then grabs ahold of my wrist harshly. He puts his thumb on my scar, which causes me to fall to the ground. He then straddles my waist and places his thumb on the cut on my head. I try even harder to scream, but fail once more.

Marcels POV
I hear grunting and the sound of a body falling, so I walk into the forer, and see Kol with Livi in his arms. I then see everyone else walking in as well, so I vamp speed over to them. I grab Kol by the shirt, and pin him against the wall. "What did you do?" I threaten. "It's Finn!" He responds. "He's channeling her again!" I let go of him, and walk over to Olivia, who now lays in D's lap. "No. Somethings wrong. Somethings seriously wrong." She whispers. I feel my anger boil, then look at Kol. That's when I notice the dried blood under his nose. I wind my arm back, and slap him, making him fall to the ground unconscious. "How do we fix this?!" I ask. "Well first off, I need Kol awake." Davina says, looking up at me. I sigh, then put my hands on my head. I groan in frustration, then rub my head. "Fine. He can help... but if he does anything to hurt either of you, he's not gonna live to see tomorrow." I threaten, and she nods.
