She lay on my bed unconscious. I wasn't going to wake her up, she would have a massive headache. It's better to just let her sleep it off as much as possible. I knew she would end up passing out, I didn't expect her to stay awake that long. At least she's sleeping instead of talking. She really has a way of getting on my nerves, but either way I suppose I like her.
Now I can finally begin with reading what the note says.
I walked over to my desk, open the drawer, and get the note. I slowly begin to open it and mentally prepare myself for what may possibly be on there. Maybe it's just another goodbye note. Would it be? I start to see the faint writing through the backside of the folded paper, my heart is pounding against my chest, my brain is screaming at me to hurry, but my hands refuse to do so. I finally get it opened and smooth it with my hands.
"Dear Jasper,
Remember when I told you in the last note that you wouldn't understand till you got older? By the time you find this you should be old enough to know. I'll explain everything to you. I need you to trust me, even if I'm no longer here with you. You know how it's forbidden to love someone else who doesn't have the same mark?
Well it's different for me. I love Carla. Dad found out and he flipped out Jasp. This "war" I'm fighting in is to fight against him and the CC. He will do anything to enforce that I marry who has the same damn mark, even if it means killing his son. Bet that son of a bitch drinks all the time now that I'm not around, huh? I know I shouldn't be talking like I'm going to die, but let's face it a small army against a huge one.. The odds are very low for me and my men. I'll be damned if I let them have me alive. I despise his self controlled government he runs. They're the reason we all hide in the shadows. I'm going to try my best to make a difference, even if I have to die or kill to win. I hope history doesn't repeat itself. I don't want you getting hurt. If it does and you understand what I went through you can choose to be silent about your feelings or you can fight for what or who you love. If you end up choosing to fight go to the old park I took you to as child, there you will find the rock we always sit on in the shade, under it, in the crack, you can see there's been a piece that's been cut out and placed back in, remove that piece and you'll find a set of keys, grab them. After you do that, drive to the woods, go north for half a mile, follow the river up south, and you should come along a log cabin, I built it, it should be in good condition still. There you will find everything you need to fight for what you love. I love you Jasp. Be wise about the choice you make.
Sincerely,
Jasper"I set the note down, everything felt as if it went still. I didn't know what to say or think. My brother, died because of something he thought wasn't right. His own father, my father, had him killed just to be sure the mark was enforced. Did he even think twice about having his own son killed? I didn't have to think about whether or not if I wanted to fight, I knew exactly what I wanted. I wanted to be with Grace and I wanted to fight for what my brother and I believed in. Once Allyson woke up, we were to discuss what I did to her and set out to the park, immediately.
