Daybreak Craziness!
Jez's POV
I knew my day was going to be crazy when I head Thierry say 'shit'. I was in the training room (obviously) training (again, obviously, what else would you do in there?) with Keller and Rashel, my best friends in the world when a loud crash and the sound of splitting glass hitting the floor penetrated our training concentration. Keller released Rashel from the head-lock she had just had her in and I lowered my staff. Then, loud and clear, Thierry's voice, "shit!" I looked at my friends, we all had identical expressions of shock, then grins, "race you to see what's wrong!" I shouted as I dashed up the stairs, the two hot on my heals.
Thierry was pacing around a pile of dust; everyone else had made a circle around him. I walked over to Morgead for information.
What happened? I asked through our soulmate bond. I would never say it, but using our connection, still made me giddy inside, not that I'd ever say anything, I didn't want to be a sap.
I don't know, Thierry seems really upset about it though he said. I was about to ask Thierry why he was flipping out when Hannah ran down the stairs and grabbed his arm.
"Thierry, what's wrong?" her gray eyes were wide and concerned for her love.
"I just tripped and broke my mother's urn!" he said, and I swear for a moment I though he was going to cry, then it hit me. Urn? Wait, isn't that something you put ashes in? Oh no, he couldn't have-," Gillian screamed. "Ohmigod! That's you mom!" the look on her face was horror. This sent me over the edge, I knew it was insensitive and unkind, but when had I ever been either? I started to laugh, slow at first, mere chuckles, but within a minute, I was rolling on the ground, almost in tears. By the sound of it, I wasn't the only one. I saw Keller and Rashel, Gillian and Thea, along with there soulmates, and also, not so surprisingly, Ash, Morgead, Quinn, and Delos, all laughing along with there soulmates. I spotted Hannah trying to comfort a fuming Thierry, but she looked about to choke on laughter. I laughed until my side hurt.
"You- kept- a- vase- with- ashes- of –your- mother- in this mad house?" I managed to get the last part out in one breath.
"Yes I did Jez! I thought that everyone in the house would be repelled by the fact that it screams 'old and breakable' so they wouldn't touch it! And now I broke it!" he sat down and put his head in his hands when he was done. Hannah sat on the arm of the chair and put a pale arm on his shoulder.
"It's okay Thierry, its okay," she repeated over and over. Eventually, Lupe came in.
"What's going on?" she asked, extremely confused. Hannah explained it to her, after all, what's a best friend for? When Hannah was done, Lupe looked sheepish.
"What is it Lupe?" asked Thierry. She held up a finger and walked away. Five minutes she came back with an arm hidden behind her back.
"Lord Thierry, please forgive me, but, I knew this meant something to you so in case the mansion was under siege, I had Nilsson make a copy and hid the real one, you broke the decoy," she said quickly. Thierry looked like Christmas had come early.
"Mom's still alive," he said and punched his fist into the air.
"Actually Thierry, your mom's dead," said Keller with a crocked smile, all of us laughed again, well, all except for Thierry, who was to busy hugging the urn of his mother to his chest. Creepy, I thought.
