Title: Shadow Of The Day
Chapter 01: Running Scared.
Liliana Marie Garwin is Reid Garwin's younger sister, she was born almost exactly 11 minutes after he was. Although Reid and his friends Caleb Danvers, Pogue Parry and Tyler Simms were all born with the 'power', she inherited something different. Liliana had a natural ability for spells and could make things happen with a simple twist of words. Liliana walked through the abandoned halls of Spencer Academy, looking for her brother Reid and his best friend Tyler.
"Lili, have you found him yet?" a voice said entering her head and scaring the shit out of her.
"Caleb get out of my damn head and use a cell phone like everyone else," Liliana muttered as she rounded the corner and almost ran straight into Tyler and Reid.
"Lili help Tyler get out of here," Reid told her, it wasn't until the moment he spoke that she noticed that the youngest 'Son' seemed to be limping a lot.
"Okay, you get out too," Liliana answered taking Tyler's hand in hers and squeezing it reassuringly as her cell phone rang. "Hello?"
'Lili did you find him?' Caleb's voice sounded through her phone as ahe and Tyler started to walk following Reid who had run almost as soon as Liliana had Tyler's hand in hers.
"Yeah, I have," Liliana answered, before she tightened her grip on Tyler's hand. "Hold on tightly, we have to run," she whispered causing Tyler to grumble and Caleb to speak loudly into the phone.
'Liliana what's going on?' Caleb questioned, running a hand through his hair as he and Pogue stood hidden by Tyler's hummer almost a block from the school.
"No clue, but it can't be good. Reid'll be out your way soon," Liliana told him before she and Tyler started to run.
'Okay,' Caleb said before he hung up and looked to Pogue who had raised his eyebrow at him.
Caleb and Pogue looked at one another as they waited patiently for Reid, Tyler and Liliana. It was supposed to be a go in and grab Reid but Tyler had gone in and not come out again so Liliana had gone in after them.
"Caleb what the hell is going on?" Pogue questioned scratching his head as he looked at the older boy.
"Don't know. But Lili said that Reid was running and something about telling Tyler that they had to run," Caleb told him, leaning against the car as they heard Reid screaming.
"Now that I don't like," Pogue said, as Reid went straight to them and hid behind the older boys.
"Can we go?" Reid muttered, Caleb shook his head they weren't going anywhere with out Liliana and Tyler.
"Not until we have your sister and baby boy," Caleb told him as he opened the back door of the hummer and Reid climbed in.
"She can look after herself," Reid muttered, Pogue turned around and glared at the younger boy and rubbed his hand over his face.
"Yeah, but she's never had to help baby boy out," Pogue and Caleb said at the same time, Reid knew it was true they all did. Liliana could hold her own but when someone else was involved it wasn't as easy.
Inside Liliana had dragged Tyler into one of the closest bedrooms to give them some hiding time. Tyler hugged her tightly wanting her help to get out of the school. Neither of them really knew what was hidden in the school.
"Tyler, sweetie what was that?" Liliana asked, pulling back slightly and brushing his hair out of his eyes and looking into them.
"I don't know, but I don't like it," Tyler muttered taking a deep breath and resting his head on her shoulder as Liliana peered through a crack in the door to see if she could see anything coming.
"I know, and judging from my brother screaming I'd say he didn't either," Liliana told him quietly as she quickly pulled back as a dark shadow flew past the door they were hiding behind.
"I've never seen him this scared...well I have once," Tyler told her as both of them leant against the door and ducked down.
"When?" Liliana questioned, frowning at the thought of never having seen her own brother scared before.
"Caleb's ascension," Tyler answered taking a deep breath as he watched Liliana's eyes go from dark blue to green in an instant.
"Oh," she muttered, wishing that just once in his life Reid would worry about how safe she was. "Why can't he ever worry about me," she added quietly smiling at Tyler a little.
'Tyler are you and Lili okay?' Caleb's voice sounded in the youngest one's head telepathically.
'Sort of...can you come in and get us?' Tyler said sending his answer straight into Caleb's head as he leant on Liliana's shoulder and closed his eyes taking a deep breath. 'There's something in the halls,'
In Tyler's hummer Reid had curled up in a tight ball and was rocking back and forth. Pogue had climbed in the front passenger seat and was staring at him curiously. Sighing Caleb poked his head into the car before he talked.
"Reid what is in there?" Caleb questioned, looking directly at the younger boy.
"I don't know..." Reid muttered looking out the window and continuing to rock back and forth.
"Okay, well stay here with Pogue. I'm going to get them," Caleb told him, before looking away from them and starting to walk quickly inside.
"Caleb, keep them both safe," Pogue called after him as he watched the older boy disappear into the school.
