The Moon Goddess' Daughter (On Hold or Not Finishing)

Chapter 5 - You're leaving?

Alexis POV:

After spending until sundown doing power training, I managed to choose another wolf to use in Maine, sort out my eye colour problem and speak to all of my forms and test them out. Now I know why they like to be out once in a while, It's horrible being in the back of someones mind all day like that, I don't know how they cope but they sure do it well. Jace and Ricky were there the whole time, helping me and encouraging me to go on but we all know they're depressed that their younger sister has to leave.

"Jace, Rick, lets head back, okay?" I told them. We had changed back into our human forms at sundown just talking and hanging out, lucky for me I change back with my clothes on like the badass Goddess I am. Ah, I love this life.

"Yeah, Umm--Ky is probably wondering where we are and he hasn't shifted yet so we couldn't contact him. Lets head back guys." Jace's voice broke at the end, obviously still finding the idea of me leaving horrible while getting up and starting the walk with us following behind. I guess I would feel the same way since we've been closer than ever since dad died 3 years ago.

 Rickster told me that the cause of our fathers death was a 'Rogue attack', one or a group of Were's that either left their packs or got kicked out, but either way they don't like rules.

Apparently our father was the Alpha of the pack, the Blue Moon, so he left the Alpha position to Rickster. It made sense since 1, Ricky was always out in the afternoons, 2, our family was the most popular and rich in school and town, and 3, everyone in town is very respectful towards us, sometimes even bowing their heads in public. I don't feel the need to be bowed to so I always ask for no one to bow for me again. I get it now, though.

WE'RE BADASS.

When we got home we called Ky down for greetings and farewells since I needed to leave tomorrow. He was devistated, however he understood the circomstances and that I'd see him soon. After getting my brothers to start packing for me I booked a plane, called Lay and Tobs round and invited them to say bye (for now). Also devistated, they sounded so broken. Ugh this is so hard, sometimes I wish this didn't sound so much like goodbye.

When Laylah and Toby got here I could tell they'd been trying to keep calm and strong about this for me, but I could blatantly see Laylah's make-up covered red rimmed eyes with my extra-strong eyesight. I sighed feeling a wave of anguish and hugged them hard, knowing it would be the last for a while.

"Boys, set up a movie, would you? A comedy, I want to remember this day." I shouted, voice quivering slightly, so the boys could hear and set it up in our movie room. Straight after I asked, well, demanded, I could hear 3 sets of footsteps leaving my room and entering the movie room.

"Come on guys, lets get snacks!" I tried lifting the mood some but failed drastically. That was Toby's limit, as soon as I finished my sentence the dam he was trying to secure broke open and loud heart wrenching sobs racked out of his mouth. Not a minute after did Laylah start, which caused me to press them to my shoulders and unintentionally let one slip. I quickly wiped it away, knowing if they saw me crying it would only make matters worse. I pushed them away slightly, gave a sad smile and finished collecting the snacks.

I made my way to the movie room with Laylah and Toby following while trying to clear up the remotely impossible-to-hide tears on their shirts.

Our best friends are crying! Everyone whispered sadly, making me cringe away at the depression in their voices.

I know, but we will come back, right? I asked them sadly yet quizzically, since i really didn't know.

"Yes of course, you're not leaving forever, darling, just 3 years tops my young worrior" My mothers gorgeous, angelic voice told me lovingly.

"Thankyou mother." I replied, graciously, loving the way that word rolls off my tongue for my true mother, not that bitch of a surrogate.

I blocked everyone out and walked closer to Lay and Tobs before putting one of their arms around my neck each, finally reaching the movie room.

That night was one of the most laid back and full of laughter and happiness nights I've ever had. After the movie we all went to bed, sleeping in the living room together like a family would.
