Nova clasped and unclasped her hand with Jax's. She remembered the deadly field of Chrystler. The white temples, the blood stained altars and the gostly figures of Daunt. She remember the words being placed on her back. she remembered playing with Macie and other kids in the tree's that moved them around in their brances careful not to fall on the sharp grass. She remembered flying, with Jax. She remember Jax, he protected her from Daunt. Of course she was a natural trouble maker, and Jax always protected her from her. She loved him for it. She remembered the tourtures and cravings Daunt had. Snatching her people from their beds and making herself happy. She remembered Ronan and Macie, the three were close and had the same problems. They were children then, and then they turned 19,then they came here. She got it now. Only children could stay in Chrystler. It was the oppostite of Neverland. They were chosen, trained. Then given a quest.
She had decided to stay longer at Jax's. For her sake and his. They ordered Chinese and a movie they didn't pay attention to. Because they were busy remembering. She remembered when they left, Astrik, her dragon taking her here. She remembered being pulled away from Jax.
"Jax how did you know that would cure me?"
"I've wanted to do it for a while, I just felt it would." he replied. "you needed to remember."
"How would the rest remember?"
"They have protectors too"
"But you aren't my protector, you have to save my soul" She sat up a bit.
He nodded.
"Then who is?"
Instead of answering Jax put his hands on her shoulders and massaged them for her. "That isn't what matters. You remember."
"Knock knock knock" someone banged on the door.
Nova jumped. The hurried bangs sounded like thunder. "I'll get it"
Another set of knocks pounded at the door. "I'm coming" she yelled trying to put on a straight face. She opened the door. A teen stood at the bottom of the steps in the pouring rain. Nova didn't recognize him, he had dark hair and even darker eyes that seemed to have went threw hell and back. "uh can I help.."
"Nova" he swallowed.
Fear stuck Nova like lightning as she realized who he was.
