Watch The Shadows (Book 1)

Can we figure out what is wrong

I awoke back into my room with concerned people standing around me.  I sat up with some help from my brother Kain. "Lexa you gave us a real fright there" Kain said with a small worried smile.

"Sorry." I said shaking my head. Then pain seemed to shoot straight through my head. I groaned in pain and laid back down not wanting to move and fee that pain again." Why are you apologizing to us Lex?" Caspian said. "I made you guys worry about me." I said. " I am just glad that you are okay Lexa." Vera said letting out a sigh of relief .

"So Lynx can you figure out why I have been randomly passing out. " I asked him. " I could but it could take a lot of time." Lynx said with a sigh. "But for now Lexa you need to rest and don't strain yourself." Lynx was also worried about my health and safety. 

"I will be fine. I promise." I said with a sigh. I was walked back to my room by a very concerned Kain. 

"Look Lex, I worry about you and I need you to tell me if there is anything that is going on with you. " Kain said using what i assumed was his brotherly voice. " Well I have been feeling really dizzy lately, but it can't be much." I said with a nonchalant tone. "Lex that could have been important and even if it wasn't relating to why you have been randomly passing out , it is still something that you should tell others." Kain was really starting to get on my nerves, he made it sound like I was made of glass. 

"Kain I can take care of myself." I said with venom . " Lexa I know that you can take care of yourself but I was saying that it is important to talk about because  your health could be on the line." He made it sound like I was  a princess that needed to be monitored 24/7. 

I huffed angrily and closed my door and slumped with my back against it. I slid to the floor and sat there just letting my thoughts run wild. 

What is happening to me?   

Why me of all people? 

Why can't I be normal?  

What  is wrong with me?

But one thought danced around the other thoughts...

What am I?

I was laying on my bed staring at the ceiling. I just had this feeling in the pit of my stomach . This feeling that something was going to go wrong.  I sat up slowly and looked around the room. The room was dark, the curtains were drawn shut blocking out any light.  I didn't  see anything out of order.  The feeling in my stomach grew worse. I was now standing walking around the dark room. I laid back down on the soft bed.  I went back to staring at the ceiling .  I feeling of dread settled over me. Again I sat up and looked around the room. Again I walked around the room and just as I was walking up to the bed I started to feel dizzy. I had a burning sensation  in my stomach. 

At first it was just warm, but as the seconds turned to minutes the warm feeling grew hotter, and hotter. Soon it felt like I had a fire sitting in the bottom of my stomach. I doubled over and held my stomach. I gasped as the pain  coursed through my body. I couldn't yell for help. All I could do was lay there and suffer the excruciating pain. I writhed on the floor, then to immeasurable joy, the pain that tormented me was gone. 

I just laid down on the floor not wanting to move in case the pain returned.  The minutes passed and I slowly sat up, the memory of the  pain was like a phantasm from beyond the grave, ever lingering.  I walked to the bed and laid down. It was the middle of the day but I faked that I was tired to finally have some privacy. I crawled under the the blankets and shivered. Not from cold but fear. I have felt pain before but never like this. 

Just as I settled the door opened softly. I heard the soft foot steps draw ever nearer. I shut my eyes. A warm hand was placed on my shoulder  and I opened my eyes slowly. I saw the face of  Lucius my friend. 

"Why did you wake me up?" I groaned. "Because you would have hurt anyone else." He said "That is true but still I need my rest." I said and rolled over. My face was pale from that weird pain. "Lexa is something wrong? You look a little pale ." Lucius asked me worry evident in his voice . "If I tell you , you can't tell anyone. Okay? " I said sitting up and facing him. "Only if it isn't dangerous" shrugged not knowing if it was bad or not. "Just before you came in this weird wave of pain sorta hit me." I looked Lucius dead in the eyes. "It felt like my body was burning from the inside out." I said starting to cry at the memory of the pain. "I felt like I couldn't breathe. I couldn't scream. I couldn't do anything. I was so scared." I was now lightly crying. "But you are alright now. Lexa that is what matters you are alright now." He was hugging me. "Maybe we should tell Lynx and only Lynx." Lucius said. "I don't want my idiot brothers trying to mother my best friend better than me."
