Between Worlds

Between Worlds - Chapter 2

Suddenly without warning the door burst open and the guy in the black cloak strode in. he took a look around him and snorted. Then he looked straight at me and that’s when I saw what colour his eyes really were, they were an amazingly unknown shade of green that seemed to darken or lighten according to his mood. They are absolutely amazing. Wait did I really just think that.

While I was having this internal debate with myself I hadn’t noticed that he had been getting closer to me. when I did notice I was shocked to see how close he was, but he didn’t look like he was happy about being anywhere near me. Then with one swift movement he drew out a sword from its sheath, which I just seemed to notice. He raised it up and it then struck me, completely out of the blue, that this guy wanted to kill me.

Once again my arms decided to move of their own accord and I threw them up, branches of trees flying in from the window and attacking the guy in front of me. But to my shock he just raised his sword and in a series of quick blurry movements he had cut away the branches so that they were lying on a heap on the floor.

I hadn’t realised that I had slowly been moving backwards but now I felt the wall press into my back and I let out a defeated sigh. He moved closer to me until there was only an inch between us. He closed the gap by stepping foreword and pressing his sword to my throat. Instead of being bothered by the sword, all I could feel was the sparks that seemed to be bursting underneath my skin in exactly the places where he was pressed up against me. I looked over his shoulder just to get my mind off of what I was feeling for some random weird guy who just about happened to have a sword pressed to my throat. I saw Jenna staring at us in shock and horror just like the rest of the class; they all seemed frozen in their shocked poses.

I finally looked back at the guy in front of me, but only because he had pressed the sword tighter to my neck, “was this the girl you all seemed to be loosing to brother?” he asked, a shiver ran up my back at the sound of his voice, his voice was deep and rough at the same time, he sounded so amazing. The other guy in the leather jacket apparently was his brother, so that’s why they looked so alike.

All this time I had been staring at his chin, now I finally lifted up my gaze and looked into his amazing green eyes which were a deep forest green. But as soon as my eyes locked with his, the colour seemed to shift in them, from deep forest green to an emerald green that was so captivating that I just couldn’t find it in me to look away. As we continued to stare at each other a shock coursed through me, one I just couldn’t explain. I didn’t know how long we stood there pressed up against each other but at some point he seemed to have removed the sword from my throat.

Suddenly a loud laugh from some where echoed around the empty room. The guy in front of me – I still didn’t know who on earth he was – turned around to look behind him. The guy in the leather jacket was laughing his ass off, at what though I had absolutely no idea. “Lets go” the guy in front of me said and once again a shiver ran up my spine at the sound of his voice. He then turned back to me but didn’t look in my eyes again; instead he took hold of my hand and started dragging me after him.

“Wait a sec” I finally seemed to have found my voice. “Where the hell are you taking me” I yelled at him and started trashing about. When he spoke his voice was like steel but calm and full of authority at the same time “if you don’t come with me” he started “I will kill every single living being in this classroom” the way he said it made her believe immediately that he most definitely wouldn’t hesitate to do just as he had said. “Fine” I answered softly as I looked up at him and stopped trashing about. “Lets go” he said simply.
