Can You Hear Me? (SetoSorcerer) (Book 1)

Chapter 29

SetoSorcerer's POV

*******************

I know Jason is lying, what is really the matter with him. He seemed to become pretty scared when I said their names.

"You know what Jason? Tomorrow, midday exactly, meet at Starbucks and we can talk, bring Ian and Quentin if you want."

Jason nodded, his face seeming a little brighter now. He walked into the house to collect the two boys.

"Mitch, Jerome, somebody wants to see you."

I heard Jason's muffled voice call, followed by a chorus of grunts, and the two people appeared at the door.

"Oh, Seto, nice to see you finally arrived." Mitch smirked.

I crossed my arms over my chest and furrowed my eyebrows, letting my anger be known to them.

"So... tell me, why did you beat up Ty?" I said, my voice calm, but inside, I was so scared.

"Oh, Ty knew some things about you that we wanted to find out, but he refused, so we made him pay." Jerome said, his face smug.

"I heard you two are working for the FBI. Is that true?" I asked, wondering how I was being so calm.

"So that little idiot spoke up did he?" Mitch said to Jerome, Jerome's face turned sour.

I walked forward and slapped Mitch, sending him staggering back, I leaned over and slapped Jerome, and he stood his ground.

"Nobody calls Ty a little idiot, get that smug look off of your innocent little faces, you have put Ty in a coma because of your childish little games. GROW UP."

Mitch walked forward again and started to walk forward to me, Jerome put his arm across Mitch to stop him.

I felt a warmth moving towards my hands. Oh no.... I clenched my fists to hold back the raging power inside of me.

"Seto, we just want you to answer one question. Then we will leave you alone, well, not. But Seto... Are you a sorcerer?"

I pulled the most confused face I ever had in my life, still holding back the evidence within me.

"IS THIS ALL THIS IS ABOUT?! YOU HATED ME, YOU PUT ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS IN A COMA. ALL BECAUSE YOU WANT TO FIND OUT IF I'M A LITTLE CHILDRENS BOOK CHARACTER. I AM NOT A SORCERER! THEY DON'T EXIST!"

I clenched my fists tighter, concentrating on not letting it loose as stared at Mitch and Jerome, my breathing heavy.

Jerome turned his head towards Mitch, and nodded. Mitch walked into the house.

"Lies." Jerome muttered. I looked behind me at Crystal, she stepped forward.

"You're accusing my boyfriend of being a sorcerer?! How childish can you get? They don't exist, where on earth did you get the idea that S...Seto was a sorcerer?!" Crystal yelled, surprising me.

Jerome looked at her, his expression calming a bit as he saw her.

"Lookie here, Seto got himself a girlfriend. Is she a sorcerer like you Seto?" Jerome asked, the grin coming onto his face again.

"Answer her." I grunted, looking down.

"Your DNA samples are different to any other human being, Seto. They are the same as the ancient sorcerers from long ago. Me and Mitch were sent here to retrieve you and excitement on you."

I looked up at him, confusion on my face.

"If you looked at my DNA, how do you not know my name?" I asked, starting to feel calmer.

"There was no name." Jerome said.

"Then how do you know that it is me then?" I asked, crossing my arms once again.

"We don't, the leaders of the FBI told us it was you, the one with the YouTube channel name of SetoSorcerer."

It was at that moment that Mitch walked out, he was holding something behind his back.

"Tell them you got the wrong one, because I don't have a clue why you would think that I'm a sorcerer." I said, trying to sound calm and also wonder what was behind Mitch's back.

"Liar!" Mitch yelled, and pulled out a gun, aiming it at me. Crystal gasped and I stepped back.

I looked back at Crystal and she was looking back towards Jordan. I looked back towards the two boys.

"I...I..Told y...you. I'm n...not a sorcerer." I said, my body started to become shaky from fright, as I may be facing my death here.

"All you have to say is the truth, and I won't have to pull the trigger." Mitch said, placing his finger on the trigger, I gulped.

Oh God what do we do?

I looked towards Crystal, a look of surprise on my face. Did I just read her mind?

She looked back towards me, fear filling her face.

"It seems he's not saying anything. So....Seto, before you end up like Ty. Do you have any last words to say to your girlfriend?" Jerome asked.

I looked towards Crystal, and pulled her into a hug. I accepted defeat now, there was no escaping this. We could try to run, but he would shoot us before we got away.

Whatever happens Crystal, just believe. If I don't make it. Find someone else, move on, get married, have children. Don't plague yourself your whole life because of me, I gave you a second chance at life even though I don't know how... but live that life, don't let it go to waste. And always remember. That I love you... Crystal..... I love you so much.

She looked up at me, surprise lined her face. She heard it.

I tilted her head up, and kissed her for what could be the last time. She wrapped her arms around my neck, and I could feel tears forming in my eyes.

We pulled away, her eyes were red and tears fell from them. I turned to face Mitch and Jerome, and gave up.

"Shoot me, you will make a big mistake. I am no sorcerer. I am an innocent boy that cares about the people around him. I do not have magic. I cure people with my love and friendship. Go on, do it."

I held out my arms, and closed my eyes.. Waiting for that final sound, the one that ends it all...
