Emerald ~book 2~

Chapter 3

~Zee POV~
"Zee please take it easy!" Mew exclaimed and secured an arm around him.

"Mew it's been 3 days we have to go now or we may never find them." Zee says looking at Mew desperate.

Mew let out a deep sigh. "I know your doing this with or without us so might as well be with us." Mew smiles softly and gathered everyone.

When they stepped outside Zee faltered a little bit, but stood upright again. He was in pain but he didn't care. Everyone looked at him with concerned looks but Zee ignored it. They started their journey through the woods. They took often rests, even though he argued with this. Mew insisted that since Zee's injured him not work himself too hard. Ha! If he can survive a near stab in the heart he can survive not resting. All he wants is to find Saint and make things right. Even though Saint will never love him again at least Saint can love whoever he wants.

        Zee fell a couple times but no matter what he got back up. Saving Saint is everything to him.

          Soon they heard voices, Zee even though his ears and tail are hidden can still hear very well.

                             ~Saint POV~
        *Smack!*

        The only sound heard was the contact of a hand to bare skin.
  
         "Jimmy just told me that Zee's still alive!" Perth yelled at Saint. "Is this true!?" Saint was trembling, he hates that the man he loved was yelling at him.

       "I-I d-don't know, I didn't expect him to survive." Saint stuttered.

        "God Zee's love for Saint must be pretty damn strong to overcome a stab to the heart." Jimmy laughed from behind. Perth gave Jimmy a glare that immediately shut him up.

         "Listen Saint I love you but when you don't follow orders you get a punishment." Perth saying in a sweet but scary voice. Saint looked at Perth wide eyed and nodded silently. Ha like I'd ever love you Perth! He's so glad that Zee survived but is he in the condition to survive much longer? Oh please Zee come save me every second longer I stay in this spell. The more the real Saint shrinks until the real Saint is the Saint right here who loves Perth.

            "Perth!" A voice called from a far. Saint turned around wide eyed to see Zee, Tommy, Mew and everyone. Saint glares at Zee who only looks back sadly. Perth handed him a knife.

          "This time make sure you kill him." Perth whispered in his ear. Saint looked back at Zee who was nearing them with the others behind him. Saint ran over and tried to stab Zee but Zee caught his hand.

         "Saint" Zee croaked in pain. "Please remember."

          "Let me go!" Saint shouts at Zee. But then something that surprised him happened. Zee's eyes landed on the red mark on his cheek.

                               ~Zee POV~
           Oh Perth is so dead. Zee looked up with pure rage at Perth. Perth looked wide eyed and ran into the woods with Zee chasing after him. The pain, he no longer felt only the burning sensation of wanting Perth dead at his feet for hurting Saint.
 
                            ~Tommy POV~
             Jimmy was still there staring at them intently. Saint was standing there with a confused look on his face. Tommy looked over at Mew and motioned towards Saint. Mew ran over and grabbed Saint's hand before he could run off.

           "Let me go!" Saint shouted pulling away from Mew. But Mew kept his firm grip on Saint, preventing him from going anywhere.

          "Jimmy, this isn't you" Tommy said walking towards Jimmy slowly. Jimmy inched away glaring.

          "Stay away, I don't even know you!" Jimmy said harshly.

          "Jimmy it's me Tommy, you love me remember. Our love is so strong I know you can overcome this." Tommy said calmly. Jimmy's eyes now flashed from green to brown green to brown.

           "Tommy throw the potion!" Nat yelled and a second later mist was covering Jimmy.

          "Ahhhh!" Jimmy shouted out in pain and fell to the ground.

          "Jimmy!" Tommy ran over and got by his side. Jimmy half opened his eyes looking at Tommy.

          "T-Tommy?" Jimmy asked confused. "What happene- wait no I know what happened I'm so sorry!" Jimmy sat up and hugged Tommy tightly. Tommy hugged back smiling happy to have Jimmy back. The relief that the potion worked washed over him.

        "Wait what about Saint?" Tommy asked and looked at Saint. Saint was being held by Mew and Joss. God please Zee get back here quick!
