Author's note: Here it is the sequel to Children of Ipswich. Again I want to say thank you to everyone who reviewed, subscribed, and favorited!! I don't own the Covenant or any of its characters. I technically do not own Addyson either. I do own Riley, Tristan, and Catherine though. Enjoy!! Also keep in mind that Riley and Addyson are in one body together so I am referring to them as Addyson since is the body in which both souls are residing.
Addyson wandered slowly through her 'house'. She sighed slightly and glanced around. She jumped when she caught a glimpse of her reflection in a mirror. She couldn't get used to being in this body.
Instead of her long, straight red hair was curly brown hair that reached down to her hips. Instead of their usual pink, her lips looked paler and the freckles that Caleb loved so much were gone. She was shorter, and Riley had never been very tall to begin with.
Surprisingly her eyes were still the same bright green color like emeralds. She didn't understand why her eyes hadn't changed. Addyson didn't really know what had happened, how had she been turned into another person?
She made her way over to the computer and turned it on. She noticed an envelope sitting on the desk. She picked up and read the address. She was in Canada. Whatever the others had done was not working according to the plan.
Addyson opened the internet and headed to a search engine. She quickly typed in 'body swapping spells'. She was pretty sure that was what had happened. The spell the rest of the Covenant had performed had taken her soul out of her body and put it into someone else.
Addyson wasn't entirely sure how long something like this could last. She also wasn't sure if Addyson was still in the body too. If she was how long will it be before she took over and Riley went away?
Addyson sat at the computer for several hours reading every article. Very few articles said anything about getting back into her own body. She had to get to Ipswich and make the Covenant fix this.
Addyson leaned back and stretched slowly. That's when she saw it, the piano in the corner. A large, black grand piano just waiting to be played. She stood up and slowly made her way over to it.
Addyson pushed back the bench and sat down carefully. She ran her fingers over the keys listening to the notes. She smiled slightly, without thinking she began to play. She played through the intro of the song. Without thinking she began to sing:
Something always brings me back to you
It never takes to long
No matter what I say or do
I still feel you here, till the moment I'm gone
You hold me without touch
You keep me without chains
I never wanted anything so much
Than to drown in your love and not feel your rain
Set me free, leave me be
I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity
Here I am, and I stand so tall just the way I'm supposed to be
But you're on to me and all over me
Addyson yanked her hands away from the keys her face awash with confusion. She couldn't play the piano, well Riley couldn't. She couldn't sing that well either. Addyson took a deep breath and put her head in her hands.
Anger surged through her as she slammed her hands down on the keys and stood up. She moved away from the piano and stormed through the house. She didn't understand why this was happening to her. She had to get back to Ipswich as soon as possible.
Addyson entered what she assumed was her bedroom and threw open the closet. She squinted at the clothing not recognizing any of it. She reminded herself that she was no longer in her own body. She was in another girl's body and would be wearing her clothes.
Addyson pulled off her sweatshirt and dropped on the floor. She dug around the closet until she found a t-shirt. It was white and had black sparrows drawn onto it. She also pulled on the first pair of jeans that she found.
Addyson then pulled two large suitcases out of the closet and began throwing the clothes into them. She would need things to wear if they figured out how to get Riley back into her own body. She pulled on her black converses and threw on a leather jacket with a motorcycle collar.
She glanced around the room and saw a desk sitting the corner. She headed over and rifled through the draws until she found a passport. Addyson drug the suitcases down the hall to the foyer and picked up her purse.
Addyson dug out her wallet and found several credit cards inside. She nodded once and opened the door. Her Mazda 3 still sat where she had parked it in the driveway. Addyson pulled the suitcases over to the car and stuffed them in the trunk.
She went back to the front door of the house and made sure the door was locked. She jogged back over to the car and climbed back inside. She carefully cranked the car and glanced back at the house. She felt the strangest twinge in her heart looking at it.
Addyson shook her head again and pulled out of her driveway. She figured that she would be in Ipswich sometime late tonight. The rest of the Covenant was going to have a lot of explaining to do.
