The Other World

Chapter Sixteen: Road Kill

I wake up to the sound of a speeding car. I quickly look to the direction of the noise. There's a dark grey SUV heading straight for me.
"Ahhhhh" I scream. But someone quickly scoops me up and saves my life. I look at him and it's Jordon, he must of used his super speed to save me.
"What the hell are you doing sleeping in the middle of the road?" He yells angrily at me.
"Well, clearly I didn't do it on purpose" I yell back.
"Sorry, just I almost lost you" he says more calm.
"Thank you, for saving my life" I say back.
"It's a pleasure, now any thoughts as why you were sleeping in the middle of the road?" He ask.
"Not a bloody clue" I say back.

We're all in my room and when I say we're I mean Jordon, Damon and I. Damon is at the end of my bed and Jordon is sitting next to me with are backs against the beds back board. It's 3am but my mum is out with a "friend" tonight.
"I TOLD YOU I NEEDED TO PROTECT YOU!" Damon yells at me.
"WELL SORRY FOR WANTING TO SLEEP IN MY OWN BED!" I yell back at him.
"Wait, who's sleeping in who's bed?" Jordon says but we ignore his question.
"If you stayed at my house this wouldn't have happened, your life wouldn't had been in danger" he explains.
"I know but I didn't think people were kidnapping me or I'm sleep walking or something" I say.
"Who would want to hurt you?" Jordon ask.
"Hannah?" I suggest.
"Nah, she's mean but not evil" Damon says. "My money is on Jordon" he says.
"Your joking! I saved her!" Jordon yells back.
"Exactly, what are the odds of you being there right on time" Damon explains.
"why were you at my house?" I ask.
"You were dodging me so I thought to go to you...and work it out" Jordon tells me. "Maybe it's someone trying to target me?" Jordon suggest.
"So in a way it's still your fault" Damon say.
"Damon, please" I say hoping he will start being more helpful then annoying.
"Fine gorgeous but I'm just trying to save you and him out of your life seems so much safer" Damon explains.
"Look, no one is safe at the moment. Anyone got a hold of Ash?" I ask.
"Nope" Jordon says. Damon shakes his head no and then I get worried. I dial here number again and it goes straight to voicemail.
"I hope she is ok" I say.
"Who cares about her right now, you almost became road kill, we need to find out who was driving the car!" Damon demands. "Did you two see any faces?" Damon ask us.
"No, I was too busy getting ready to die" I reply.
"Kind of, I mean...maybe" Jordon says.
"Well anything is helpful right now" Damon tells him.
"I think I saw a mans face, so the person driving the car is a guy" Jordon informs us.
"WELL THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN PRETTY USEFUL WHEN WE WERE GUESSING WHO IT WAS!" Damon shouts at Jordon. Jordon rolls his eyes at Damon and then Damon gets up.
"Where are you going?" I ask Damon.
"To look for Ash, wanna tag along?" Damon offers.
"We would love to" Jordon says standing up.
"I was inviting Joyce not you" Damon says.
"Boys, just please set your egos aside. We need to find Ash, she could be in trouble" I try to reason. They both look at me and Damon makes his way out the door. I follow him and Jordon follows me. I hop in the front with Damon and Jordon sits in the middle.

We decide to look for Ashlee at her house so, I give Damon directions. when we pull up to her house we notice something very wrong. Her front door is wide open and the lights aren't on. We jump out the car and run inside. I head upstairs to her room while Damon and Jordon search downstairs. I notice her bedroom door is open so I run straight in. I see her sleeping peacefully in bed and nothing else seems off. As I go to leave her room, I notice the door is now closed. "you should have stayed with your boy toys. Now you're all mine" a stranger says as they grab me from behind. They push up me against a wall and cover my mouth with their hand. I don't recognize him at all, why is he doing this? I try to wiggle out his grip but fail and I must of glowed my eyes accidentally since he glows his at me. "So you are the lupus pythonissam" says the strange man. I look at him confused and unsure of what he just said.

"Any luck up here gorgeous" ask Damon as he causally walks in. His smile instantly drops when he sees me and the strange man. He glows his eyes in angry and marches towards the man with a fist. The man glows his eyes back Damon and drops me to the floor. Damon punches the guy first and he falls to the ground. The man gets up and swings some punches but Damon blocks them all. He knocks the guy on his ass with one punch. The man quickly gets back up and jumps out the window. The glass shatters all on the floor and the grass outside. I run to the window to look for him, but he is completely gone.
"you okay?" Damon ask me.
"yeah, any idea who the werewolf was?" I ask him. He nods no and looks at Ashlee sleeping in her bed. How did she sleep through all that noise?
"we came her to save you and all your doing is sleeping! seriously!" Damon says, I chuckle at his remark and we head downstairs. Jordon is waiting at the end of the stairs.
"did you guys find her?" Jordon ask as we reach him.
"oh, we found her" Damon says while rolling his eyes.
"she was asleep" I tell him. "A man was upstairs in her room and he attacked me" I inform him. He looks at me shocked and angry at the same time.
"who?" he asked.
"we don't know, but he is a werewolf and called me lupus pythonissam" I explain to them.
"What does that mean?" Damon ask me.
"I don't know but maybe its the magic language" I suggest. The both nod in thought.
"let's ask Mr. Tinwell tomorrow" Damon tells me.
"no" says Jordon. "let's ask now" he adds.
"okay, lets go to his house" I tell them. "Do you remember where it is?" I ask Jordon.
"yep, let's go" he says.

After a long drive, we arrive back at the creepy house in the middle of no where. I can't believe Ashlee willingly went here. We walk up to the door and knock twice. He answers almost straight away and he has a smile on his face. "welcome Joyce, please come in" Luke offers.
"Thank you, Luke" I say as I head inside. I take a seat on the couch in his lounge room. The boys follow me and they sit each side of me.
"What brings you to my home" Luke ask me.
"I was wondering if you could translate the word lupus pythonissam for us" I ask him. He looks at me strangely, as if he knows something...like he knows a secret.
"Joyce, it means witch wolf" he tells me. I look at Damon straight away then at Jordon whom seems confused. I don't blame him I just got called a wolf and a witch!
"well, clearly they have me confused with someone else" I state. "Can you look more into it for me?" I ask.
"Yes of course" he says more than happy to help out. I get up and so do the boys. 
"Thank you for your help" I say to Luke. he stands up and shakes my hand.
"I'm glad I could help" He says back.

When we arrive home I feel an uneasy feeling in my stomach. honestly I should talk to Damon about the mess since we are leaving tomorrow for the trip but I just want to be with Jordon. I want to be in his arms at night, I want to feel his body heat as I sleep tonight. I walk to my door with Jordon after saying bye to Damon. I take his hand and lead him up to my room. We lay down on my bed and he brings me in nice and close to him. We just stay there cuddling for about five minutes, people who you can lay with in silence without it being awkward are the best kind of people to be around.
"please stay with me tonight" I ask Jordon.
"Of course, I love you!" Jordon says back, he kisses my forehead gently.
"I love you too" I say while going to sleep.
