"I just wanted to start off by saying how proud I am of all of you. Overcoming your fears , standing up for what's right , and helping others along the way. I'm sorry that you all had to see that little fiasco earlier but hey, that's why we're all here, to make mistakes and to learn from them... right?" As he said that the crowd began cheering him on again.
"Yeah and to kick ass!" Somebody yelled from the crowd.
"Yes that too!" Sebastian mumbled.
Sebastian began glancing at me as I avoided eye contact with him." I want you all to welcome our new comers with open arms. We all know how hard it is to come here and try to fit in with where we think we belong and who we think we belong with.. But we all know that the only way to find where we belong is to look deep within ourselves and find the normality in which we were born to help us all make the right decision in the end"
He still continued to stare at me as he smiled and then slowly looked away. "Any who ladies and gents, play nice." he said as he walked off with Chloe and the others.
Avery then picked up his tray as we made our way upstairs to Alice. "There's something seriously wrong with this place." Avery whispered.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"Just look around Amilia. All these "supernaturals" just suddenly found their way to a secret training facility camp? For supernaturals? I mean I just don't get it... And look I spoke to some of the people that claim they have been here for a while and the most crazy part about it is that according to them, they're not allowed to leave... or so they say."
"That's ridiculous," I whispered.
"Sebastian would never hold people here captive against their will if they want to leave then they can go."
Avery then stopped walking and stepped in front of me so that we could be face to face. "Amilia..." he said slowly. "WE are here against our will"
I then moved around him and continued walking. "We are not here against our will, Sebastian is here to help us , all of us. I mean you're telling me to look around but are YOU really looking around? Point out one person that you see in here that doesn't look truly happy... better yet , point out one person in here that looks like they're being held against their will besides you?"
Avery then got silent as I walked away from him. When I turned around I turned too fast and I tripped over my shoe and fell into somebody in front of me who caught me in perfect timing.
"I guess saving your life is a motto for me now" Keith said quietly.
"Keith?" Avery shouted as he and Keith slapped hands and bro hugged.
"Dude where have you been?" Avery asked.
"It's a long story dude" He responded as he stared at me and I stared at him back.
The more I looked into his eyes the more anger I felt towards him. I felt like I could no longer trust him or anything he said.
"Are you two good?" Avery asked.
"I don't know" I responded with an attitude. "Ask the wolf boy."
"Okay , excuse me storm!" Keith clapped back.
"Storm? Really hellboy? Do you wanna go there with me?" I growled.
"What is your problem?" he shouted.
"My problem? I don't know, let's see.. You keep on randomly stalking me and coincidentally popping up every time I need my life saved but you can never randomly pop up when your brother needs your help! What's your problem?" I yelled.
"Is this what this is about? My older brother.. Are you serious?" he mumbled.
"Yeah! Your older brother! That's exactly what this is about." I mumbled back.
"Wait a second..." I said.
"Was it because you were a wolf? Is that why you weren't coming around because you didn't want us to find out?"
Keith just stood there in silence and began looking around the room.
"Well now we know!" I yelled.
Avery just stood in between me and Keith awkwardly as we continued to yell at one another and people began surrounding us.
"It's always about Pete...Pete, Pete, Pete. What about me... Huh? I needed his help more than he needed mine and yet he still decided to chase after you."
"What are you talking about?" I asked.
Keith then stepped closer to me "What is so great about little old Amilia Coveere? You know.. I asked myself that question several times... Why would my brother choose some worthless little girl over me? It's obvious isn't it? Everything he ever told you was a lie. He doesn't care about you and he never will, he never did. He definitely doesn't love you , especially as much as you love him. He wanted to use you to figure out what happened to our mom and dad since your parents were involved with their deaths. I mean I could really careless about either of them but I think that it's sweet.. My brother thinks using your clueless ass will get him anywhere.
I then snatched Avery's tray of food and smashed it into Keith's face. As Keith stood there with mashed potatoes up his nose the whole cafeteria began growing in silence.
"My food!" Avery yelled.
Keith began wiping his face off with his shirt as we heard somebody clearing their throat behind us. We turned around to see Pete standing there all bulky and strong.
"Is it true?" I shouted.
"Is what true?" Pete asked cluelessly.
I approached him slowly as my eyes began to water. "Everything .. everything you ever told me... you told me that you were here to protect me, you told me that I could trust you. You told me that-"
"You CAN trust me Amilia" He interrupted.
"You don't understand"
