[ON HOLD] Exclusion, Confusion And Delusion.

Chapter 17- Hi Everyone

Charlie paces back and forth. "When is Lulu going to get back?"

Quinn stares at her hands. "Luciville... Knows Issac's mother... The rumors said she killed herself after Julian killed her son. Yet she's alive..."

Quinn didn't think she heard Luciville right when she left saying she's going to a person named Valoria for answers.

"Maybe if we talk to Evie, she could possibly wake up." Charlie walks to Evie.

"Charlotte if you don't step away from her this instance!" Axel storms to Charlie. He rarely raises his voice, definitely to his own daughter. "Just let Luciville come back with answers please... We don't want Evie to wake up and do something she might regret."

"They said Issac was a sick creature... He tortured animals, they said that he attacked his mother." Quinn stared blankly, recalling the rumors of Issac. "What... What if she turns out like him... Oh, I need my Brother!"

"Quinn!" Axel grabs the shaken up Quinn's shoulders, she tries to dial her phone. "I know your afraid, honey, I know... I know, but we can't cause unwanted attention. If we call her parents, Julian Sadlestorm could be watching them leading him right here to her. She is asleep, everything will be ok until Luciville comes back with answers."

Evie screams "Stop hurting him!" She tosses and turns, her wings knocking things over.

Everyone watches as she stirs and calms back down, everyone freezes.

"Lulu needs to hurry the fuck up." Charlie goes into the kitchen. She opens the fridge to get a blood bag, she rips the seal off before turning to head back in the room.

Quinn smells the air, the metallicly aroma filling her lungs. "Charlie! No! Her hunger could wake her up!"

Evie's eyes snap open, she speeds into the kitchen, Her wings rip into the walls as if they were made from paper. She instantly grabs Charlie's throat smashing her into the fridge. Eyes close she yells at Charlie. "No! Stop hurting him!"

Adis kicks the door down, he flies into the kitchen, his steel grey wings flap ferociously through the air, he grabs Evie's head, placing his hands on her temples, he chants. "Ut redis ad placings facientia somnos consurge ad alterum (may you return to your peaceful slumber awake for another)."

Before he can repeat the spell, Charlie still in Evie's grasp yells to her. "Evie! Wake up, this is your cousin Charlie, please wake up! Please wake up Evie! It's Charlie!"

"Charlie stop! Let Adis put her back to sleep, she could kill you!" Axel says.

"Evie! Wake up, this is your cousin Charlie, please wake up! Please wake up Evie! It's Charlie!" A voice yells at me, the vision of Issac being held down and beaten fades into a mist with the other disturbing nightmares of Valoria.

That sounds like... Charlie... She sounds scared. I try to open my eyes again, reaching for my eyes, I try to rip them open with all my strength.

Finally... The suffering ends... Valoria's nightmares fade.

I slowly blink, my eyes are blurry, I hear yelling and screaming this time it isn't low and muffled.

"Oh no, she's awake!" I hear Auntie Quinn say.

My eyes are finally to their full 20/20 vision, I'm  horrified by what I see, my hands are tightly wrapped around Charlie's neck. I release her quickly, I recoil as I back up, I hear things being knocked over.

At the corner of my eyes, I catch a glimpse at the wings I thought I was dreaming about, being too majestic to be my own... But it wasn't a dream they're really my wings, I touch my mouth, my fangs are out as well. Everything wasn't a complete dream.

I back up, everyone looks tense and defensive. I turn to Charlie I open my mouth and before I can say anything Charlie runs into me hugging me. How could she be hugging me when just a second ago I was strangling her?

"Oh, thank goodness you're awake." Charlie snivels wrapping her arms around my neck. "We thought you would have lost your humanity!"

The defensiveness relaxes and relief replaced it. Were they preparing to kill me?

"Evie we thought... We thought you would turn out like Issac, a beast." Quinn says.

"No, Aunt Quinn Issac was no such thing." I looked her right in her eyes. I would no longer allow Issac's name be slandered in my presence again.

A voice replies back to me.

"You're right Jamilla, he wasn't." The voice agrees from the living room. "My brother became a beast at your grandfather's doing." The voice gets closer, until a figure emerges to reveal itself "Hi everyone, some of you might not know me, but I've heard quite a lot about you all. I'm Harley Causus."
