A/N: Hey
What up
Something's happening...
Uh oh!
*******************
Chapter 3
"Will!" I screech, looking him over. "What happened to you?" I turned to Cecily. "What happened to him?"
Cecily recovered and shakily cried, tears streaming down her face, "I-I don't know! I g-got back home from camp and then...Will..." She sobbed, her shoulders shaking. "What happened? I heard about the...the...MONSTER!!!"
I tried to calm her down with a smooth "Everything's gonna be alright, don't you worry," but I was worrying, and I knew it wasn't alright. And plus, my voice didn't seem to work
Will was dead, no less. It was sickening to imagine what became of him, and why his body was so...bloated. I reached down and stroked a swollen hand, popping with blisters. I was disgusted with myself when I felt the urge to pull back and wipe my hands. This was Will, my baby! I felt tears well up in my eyes.
"Will!!!" I suddenly cried, "Will? Will! Come back to me!" I shouted to the swollen body, with acid oozing out of the blisters. "Come back to me! I need you, squirt!" I fell on top of him. "WILLLLLL!"
Suddenly, a pair of sturdy arms pulled me up and pushed me into a tight embrace. Mom.
"It's alright..." She coaxed, and finally, the tears came. Violet blue eyes met sapphire purple, and an understanding so deep shuddered through me. I saw my Mom, my brave Mom, eyes welled up in tears.
"Will" I murmured, "my poor Will." Mom patted my shoulder, and we burst together. I didn't want to hold back anymore, it was all too much. My brave Will, my brave, valiant Will, dead? Noooo! But it was true, and his body was next to me to prove it. Maybe if he hasn't taken the seraph blade from me and tried to fight the demon he could have lived..
What happened to him anyways? Did the demon have a disease? Would I end up like this, too? A wave of fear spread over me. I didn't want Cecily, Mom, and Dad to die too!
I snuck a peek at Will. I could barely see his handsome face, all covered up with welts of all sizes. "Oh Will," I started, my voice cracking, "whatever happened to you?"
Cecily and Mom were now hugging each other tightly, the tears sticking them together. I wanted to join them, but I didn't want to leave Will's side.

"WHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYTTTTTTT?????"A loud cry startled me, and pain shot through my arm. My father stood at the foot of the bed, sobbing.
Cecily and Mom were gone, to bed, i guess when I see that it's three o'clock in the morning. I suppose dad just got home, he was bending over Will in his finest business suit. Will?
Suddenly, I remembered. Will was dead. I choked back a sob. Will. My darling. My sweetie. My Will.
"W---W--Hat happened?" Dad murmured, running his hand down Will's swollen body.
"The demon..." I tell him, softly. "In the Pxylis..."
"Marbus." A growl shook Dad. I've never seen him like that. Grief in his eyes, but vengeance in his posture. And I realized...he was a Shadowhunter once... (A/N: lol:) that sounded corny)
"I tried to protect him Dad, I tried, I got rid of the demon, honestly, but I don't know what happened, to Will...." I trailed off.
My father sighed. "It was the stinger. Filled with poison, no doubt." He finally said, after moments of careful thinking.
That crushed me. He was poisoned? How? Suddenly, I remember that weird wind. It must have been it! "It was the stinger," I repeat hollowly. "The stinger." I reach for my crutch and hobble back to my room, taking one last look at Will.
*****************
I guess I fell asleep again, for I was awoken by a sudden jolt, not gentle like the last, but forceful and rude.
I opened my heavy eyelids and saw Cecily standing in a defense ful posture.
"Hullo?" I ask, my eyes adjusting to the light.
Cecily narrowed her radiant violet blue eyes. "I hate you..." She hissed.
