Chapter Twenty-Nine

~Raven's POV~

When Elijah left everything went dark again, it seemed almost peaceful, that was, until the pain started. It was intense, and burning, but I knew it was necessary. Then, just nothing. I don't know what happened, but the next thing I knew I was gasping awake in a panic.

"Hey, take it easy." Derek's voice came from next to me.

I looked over at him and then down at the I.V. in my arm, staring at it momentarily before reaching down and pulling it out of my arm. "I'm not healing." I said faintly with a frown when the mark didn't disappear.

"Don't-" Derek started and then sighed when I pulled it out, "No, you're going to heal like a human for a few days and you're not supposed to use magic." He said, looking up at me, "You're supposed to be resting."

I shook my head and moved to get out of the bed, "No, I can't rest." My whole body ached as I forced myself to stand up, swaying lightly before standing normally, "I-I need to get to the school. Something's happening." If I hadn't have been so preoccupied on getting to my closet I probably would have noticed the guilty look on Derek's face.

"You /need/ to rest." Derek said, grabbing onto my arm, "Just sit down."

My eyes went from Derek, down to his hand on my arm and then back up, "Let me go Derek. I can make my own decisions and right now I'm needed at the school."

"How could you possibly know that?" He asked softly, "You've been unconscious for a day and a half."

"I don't know, I just do." I snapped, "Now let me go."

He shook his head and held a little tighter, "And what do you plan on doing when you get there? You can't use magic and you're still weak."

I glared at him and reached down, pulling his hand off my arm. I wasn't nearly as strong as I should have been, but still had enough strength to do that, "I'm strong enough." I muttered, "Now get out of my room so I can change."

He looked at me for a minute before sighing, "Fine, I need to go take care of something anyways." He muttered, walking out.

I watched him leave before throwing on some jeans, a tank top, a leather jacket, and some converse. I then went over to the mirror to do my makeup and winced slightly when I saw how weak I looked. I did my makeup and threw a beanie on before grabbing my things and heading out to my car, ignoring the limp in my step. I quickly drove to the school and parked. I was about to head in when I noticed Derek leaning against his car and watching the chemistry room.

"You shouldn't be here." He muttered when I walked over to him.

"Yeah, I shouldn't do a lot of things," I snapped, watching what was going on in the class. "What are Erica and Isaac doing?" I asked him suspiciously.

"Testing a theory." He said, looking over at me, "A snake can't be poisoned by its own venom." He added when I looked confused, "We already tested Jackson and it paralyzed him."

"Then who are you testing..." My eyes widened when I saw that Isaac was sitting next to Lydia and she was about to eat something, "You can't do this!" I shouted at him, smacking his shoulder, "I'm out for one day and you start acting crazy?!"

I went to hit him again, but he caught my hand, "Watch." He muttered.

I looked over at the window at watched as Lydia ate it, nothing happened. I pulled away from Derek and glared at him, "If you try to hurt her you'll have to go through me." I growled before storming away into the school.
