It was a Time For Gargoyles

Jealousy is an Ugly Drug

* Hey guys I'm sorry this chapter kinda sucks this is the first week back of college and I've literally have been exhausted everyday this week. but we got two chatpters in one day so that's nice, anyway remember to like and comment and have an amazing rest of ya'lls week!**

I think I've learned a trait from our Human counterparts since we've arrived on this big island and that everyone is jealousy. I've never experienced this weird feeling before till now and I don't like it at all, Jealousy is an Usgly drug. Now why would I be jealous you might ask well let me explain.

After we woke up tonight I decided that instead of going on patrol with Broadway and Brooklyn like I would usually Bronx and were cuddling on the couch that Elisa brought us while I read a book from the library. It was a fantastic book that kept me engaged while petting Brox and rubbing right behind his ears which he was enjoying as far as I can tell. After a while maybe an hour and a half Broadway and Brooklyn arrive back but Brooklyn is being mostly carried by Blue. "Red!" I yell jumping off the couch, running over to him taking the last bit of the weight as we set him down. Broadway starts to explain what had happened which makes a weird pain erupt from the center of my chest making me angry.

"As soon as they left, we caught the first updraft back" Broadway finishes telling the story as brooklyn starts to wake back up making me just want to slap him on the back of the bed for being so stupid.

"She was so frightened"

Yeah Of us"

"She needed our help"

"We are talking about the same person? From where I sat, she didn't want our help"

"She wanted mine"

"Lover boy took this off her wrist." Broadway finishes the argument which makes me even angry to the point I wrap my wings around me to hide my fist shaking. I stop listening after that, I also avoided all three of the boys even so far as taking a flight around the city to calm myself. I've never felt this emotion before, I'm angry at Brooklyn for thinking that this mutant of sorts was so interested in Brooklyn as he was making it seem. I thought we were getting somewhere. I don't necessarily understand how Human mating rituals work but in the world of Gargoyles we pick a mate for life. Even though I haven't told Brooklyn he's been my choice since before the fall of the clan.

I sit on top of a tall building just contemplating things now like if Red and I have the connection I thought we did or maybe I was making it up the whole time. I sigh seeing the sun start to rise but make no motion to head back to the clock tower, they won't worry about me.

Once I arrive back at the clock tower Broadway informs me that Brooklyn, Lex, and Goliath went to save this girl "What's got your tail in a knot?" Broadway asks making me sigh as we sit down on the couch "Red is so obsessed with this girl and it makes me Jealous I think" I tell him making me nod "Del you and Brooklyn have an amazing bond but this new girl is just that new, he'll be fine in a couple days" he says rubbing my back making me feel better, I lean into him "I know it's just it makes me question if we have what I think we have" you do it'll be fine"

Broadway makes me sandwich by the time they get back with this new girl making me cringe almost but I join the others in the semi circle around her.

"It's OK. You're among friends." Red tells her as she awakens started standing up "Were you human once too?" "No."

"Well, I'm human, I'm not like this. My name is Maggie. Maggie Reed. I'm from Ohio."

"You'll be safe here, Maggie." Lexington tells her but I can already tell that she doesn't believe it she's been brainwashed by the people who had her.

"This is safe? I need a cure. I'm not a monster!" she exclaims covering her face making me a little sad and angry with myself, this isn't this girls fault. I shouldn't be putting all this hate and anguish to this girl but try to help her.

"We're not monsters either. Don't be afraid" brooklyn says as he rubs her head the way he use to rub mine making me kinda scuff and head up to the balcony getting ready to sleep.

By the time we woke up Maggie was gone probably back to Xantos, Brooklyn just keeps saying that she needs us which is completely wrong, that girl wants to be human again and we've never been human so how can we help her out of everyone on this planet.

We head for the Castle anyway not having been back here in a while stirs up some old memories, but I don't that long to reminisce on this because Derek and his new clan start to attack up "Derek stop!" I yell getting attention after he attacks Goliath "We don't need to fight, we're just trying to help you "Goliath and two others are the reason I'm in this mess" Derek says angrily but I shake my head "No It's because of Xanatos" I try to tell him but our friendly neighbor Elisa shows up to stop the party "Freeze!"

"Back off and you won't get hurt. Now, calmly Who are you?" Elisa asks Derek but I know he won't be truthful about this even though he should be but the man or now mutant just chuckles at his older sister "Call me Talon."

"OK, Talon. Why are you stomping on my friends here?

"Your friend made me like this."

"Impossible. Goliath would never intentionally hurt anyone. Look, I want to help you.

"Promise?" "Cross my heart."

"Hope to" derek finishes their thing but it's to late Elisa knows making me sigh helping Goliath up him giving me an appreciative head nod "Derek? Derek, is that you?" she tries to go up to him but he keeps stepping back. " No! ''''Xanatos did this to you"

"It was an accident He's trying to help me"

"No, don't you get it? He's lying! He's always lied to you" she tries to tell him but it just upsets him even more, activating his electric powers hurting her. "Elisa? I'm sorry" Derek says as I run to her helping her up but she more of stand kind of behind me and I stand in front of her protectively the mutant just screams and jumps off the tower flying away with the 3 other mutants.

"Should we go after them?" Broadway asks but Brooklyn is quick to interjet

"no, Let them go.she doesn't want our help. She doesn't want me."

"Now it's war, Xanatos. You're going down for this. I promise you, no matter what it takes.Elisa says turning away from Xantos to Goliath who flies her back to the clock tower with the rest of us.

when we get back to the clock tower Elisa is having her Mental Break down which I will say it's perfectly understandable in this situation while Brooklyn and Lex sit on the railing at the top of the clock tower. I make elisa some tea and wrap a blanket around her which she says a quite thank you before I go sit with Red.

I wrap an arm around him and sigh letting him have this moment of weakness for this Maggie and I'll be here supporting him and waiting till he sees the truth
