Shift

Chapter 17

I couldn't go far from him, so I tried my best to avoid him as much as possible.

When lunch ended and gym came around, it was hard to avoid, since he sits right in front of me. He tried talking to me, but only once, since everyone kept surrounding him. To be honest I was annoyed. Even if I tried to think other wise.

When school ended, I tried to head to the mall to get on the bus, but it was hard because his slow butt wouldn't walk faster. I swear he was doing this on purpose. I shook my head and tried to push forward but not to far or we would crash into eachother.

I sighed and waited at a stop sign, when he felt close I walked on and that's when I noticed someone following me. I looked back, no one was there, I turned and jumped as I saw an old man walk by.

I must be paranoid......
I walked on and then that feeling came again, I turned then froze with fear as I felt a presents behind me.

Must be paranoid... I thought frantically but I knew better.

I felt the back of my neck being breathed down upon. I slowly turned around. The logical part of me yelled Just run and never look back! But deep down inside I knew I couldn't get away.

When I turned they were gone. I was annoyed that I was being toyed with, yet scared for my life. I walked faster as my heart raced within my chest.

I slammed into someone and was nearly knocked off my feet until strong arms grabbed me and held on tight.

Pain shot threw both my arms. I looked up into a gorgeous face, in away he looked like Chris brown but hotter.

He smirked a twisted smirk, it gave me chills up and down my spine.
"How lucky" he said in a chilling voice. "Master will be proud of my catch."

"C-catch?" I stuttered, I tried to sound tough but that clearly failed.

He nodded his head with that smirk still on his face. I tried pulling back but he grabbed tighter and it made me wince at the pain.

"One of you must be....."

"Let her go!" A raspy angry voice yelled.

"Hmmm... this is interesting." He said as he let me go and backed away so quickly, that I hadn't notice what happened, until I saw Quency standing in front of me.

Quency was on attack mode and defence mode, as he spread his arms out to keep me protected.

It amazed me how that Guy swiftly moved as if it were nothing but a reflex, like he was ducking from a fly.

He put his hand on his chin thoughtfully. "Your communication has grown quite strong with eachother." He looked over at us thoughtfully "not even an entire day passed and you two have already connected? How strange master must know, you guys might be...."

Just then a girl walked up from behind him. She was very pretty. She wore what that girl Cherry had worn, but less revealing and hers was sapphire.

Without turning he spoke to her "May, we may have..."

"I know" she said cutting him off "but Master has plans and we must be sure, before the others figure it out."

He finally turned to her "lets go, we must prepare." and just like that they disappeared.

I was stunned and confused. What just happened?

"Are you okay?...." Quency said, inturrupting my thoughts.

"How'd you know I was in danger?"

"What?..."

"I Need Answers!" I looked up at him and pleaded and with a softer voice I said "I need to know.... so please don't beat around the bush"

He sighed "lets go to my place, I'll tell you what you need to know" without a word more, he walked on.

I had to know but I was scared. Before I can chicken out or hesitate further, I followed him. I knew that I could never turn back now, all I can do is look forward and hope I'm making the right decision.
