Into The Shadow

Chapter 5: A Freak

I see that Pewdie is standig on a table waiwing his hands like he is telling a story. Ken smiles and walks by my side as my tail swings back and fortha nd my ears twitch by the noices.

"And Marzia was all like 'I told you this was a bad idea' but this was one of the best experiance of my life." I hear Pewdie say as we come closer to the table.

"Pewds, you broke your arm while doing this." Says marzia. Everyone are giggling and making charms.

"Hey, guys." Says Chey and lifts up the harm she has been working on. "It is ready we just need a drop of blood from each and everyone."

"Shouln't we wait till everyone are here, I mean Mary isn't here and I think we all should be at the spot." Says Ken and looks at the hall way.

"Yeah I think we should but Ken, Lily and Mary are the only one that have been called up to pick a weapon and not everyone else. Shouln't we wait till everyone are done picking a weapon?" Says Cry that looks at the screen with the names on. "You see that Me, Chey and Michael are next up."

I look at the screen and see that the names of the people that are done picking weapons are green but the other once are grey. and My name and Kens are green, and Marys just turned green.

"Well seems like Mary is done, and I am sure that soon other people will be up pretty soon." I say, and two seconds later the voice comes back to call up names.

"Ryan, Cheyenne, Michael and June. Please go to your room and wait for the staff to come to you."

"Well see your butts in a second." Says Chey and stands up putting the ring in her pocket. Michael and Cry stand up as well and walk to the hall way. I see the girl that I saw last night, the girl with the eagle wings, so her name is June, she is going to the hall way and she is looking at me again. She drags her wings on the floor while walking. Why is she always watching me? Is it because I am a cat and cats ususally hunt birds? But I don't do it. Bird are pretty, they make me feel I'm free from everything. So I just watch birds while they fly through the air. Her hair is dark brown and very short, about three cm above her shoulders. I noticed last night that she has dark brown eyes. She stops looking at me shortly before she disapears behind a corner. I look at the others and see that Pewdie is thinking and Marzia is with her eyes closed and her head laying on Pewdies shouder.

"What are you thinking Pewds?" Asks Ken. So he noticed as well.

"Just that all these people haven't done anything and even tho they are different doesn't mean that they need to be treated otherwise." He says and points his hand on everyone in the hall. I look over and see that most of them look so inocent.

"You are right." I say and look down. "I have been thinking the same thing over and over again for months."

"What is wrong with being different?" Says Pewdie. A moment of silent, neither me or the others spoke up and Pewdie said again "Nothing, exactly."

"People who are humans are maybe just scared of us." Says Ken holding Mary's hand. "We are something that is called a freak. Like this guy there, I mean you see that he has a lot of fun having a monkey tail, he keeps just swinging around in the celing. Look at his smile." I look at the guy that Ken was talkign about and see what he means. I look down again as my tail stops wigling and just stays still. We enjoy being different but those who are just normal with nothing will be afraid of us even tho they see that we are having a lot of fun. Humans are erasing Mords from this planet. I look back at the others and see that they are in deep thoghts.

"This won't be like this forever, someday it will change and everyone will treat eachother as an equal." I say and lightly smile. Everyone Look up at me and smile.

"Hopefuly we will be alive when that happense." Mary says and lays her hand on mine that was shakign on the table. I look at her and she is smiling, the other once are smiling too. I smile back and look at the screen. Crys name turns green. I look over the crowd as the people are minding they'r own buisness. I see Cry walk from the hall way and towards us.

"So, What did you pick?" I ask him as he sits down.

"I picked a sword that is very spechal for people that are hiders and a dagger that is basicaly with the same face that is on my mast on the end of the dagger." He says moving his mask that his left eye is seeable. His eyes are blue and I can see that there is a small dash of virus blue color and red color in his eye. What is that? I better not question it, atleast not now.

Cheyennes name turns green. Pewdie stretches his arms and Marzia rubs her eyes.

"What time is it?" Ask Pewdie when he slams hs arms on the table.

"It's curently 2pm." Ken says and looks at the screen.

"Well I am hungry, who is goign to get something to eat?" Pewdie asks. Everyone agrees and stand up.

"I think I'll wait for Michael." I say and look at the screen waiting for his name to turn green.

"Okay, it's not like we are never coming back." Says Ken and walks to the food area.

"I know I'm just going to wwatch over our table as well." I say and pat my hands on the table.

"Okay, you do that while we go do this." says Cry and starts walking. I smile and see that Chey walks into the hall and Cry wraps his arm around her shouder and drags her with them.

I keep looking at the screen a hoping that his name will turn green, I want it to turn green. I hope nothing has happened to him. I want to be sure that he is safe. is name turns green. Thank god it did.

I see Michael walk to the hall and towards me. Hea is wearing the hood and it is covering his face. I stand up spread my arms to hug him. He starts to hug me. and then wisperes to me.

"Why do you look so pale?"

"I am scared." I say and look at him, I can slightly see his eyes from the shadow that covers his eyes.

"Why are you scared, Baby?" He asks me.

"I am scared of that I might loose you or the others, as in everyone might die and I will be alone again. Just like when you found me, at the fire."

"That was an accident, babe. But no, I promise that we will all work together to keep each other alive."

"Promise?"

"I promise." Michael says and hugs me tighter. I dig my face into his chest. I feel safe, I feel protected. "Where are the others?"

"They went to get food." I said and took a step back. "I was just whatching over the table while they were away."

"Well we should go and get something to eat as well whe they are back."

"Sounds good."
