Hey guys, here's the next chapter. Warning, this chapter get fairly violent. With that out of the way, here you go.
"Books!?" Jenny yelled out.
"Little J, it appears this will be your second lesson, books are the singularly most powerful force on the earth, as they provide knowledge. It's not the books themselves that are necessarily powerful, its contents is what is powerful. So Little J," Blair explained before passing one of the ancient looking books over to the younger girl, "Let's get reading."
Jenny nodded, taking the book from Blair's hand and taking a seat on her bed opening it. Blair took out another one of the books and took the chair by Jenny's sewing desk. After a minute of reading, Jenny started to flip through the book. "Blair, I don't get this," Jenny said.
"What don't you get?" Blair responded.
"I don't get why your mother would value this so highly. It's all about werewolves and other types of mythical beasts," Jenny told the other girl.
"What?" Blair said, closing her book and dashing over to look over the girl's shoulder. Blair found the girl flipping through page after page of drawings of various creatures, only a few of which Blair had heard of.
"I don't get it either. It matters to my mother though, I will have to ask her more about this next time I get a hold of her," Blair responded, the confusion evident in her voice.
The girls got distracted by the sound of the door attempting to be kicked in. "Hide the chest," Blair ordered, throwing the book she was holding into it.
Another attempt to break the door sounded through the loft as Jenny took threw her book in as well, and throwing a couple pillows over them, before closing the chest and throwing it under her bed.
On the third attempt, the door was kicked off its hinges and two men entered, lightly armored and carrying crossbows fitted out with laser scopes. The two men entered quietly, and with military precision.
Jenny and Blair stood with their backs to the open door to Jenny's room, trying to stay as silent as possible. Blair clenched Jenny's arm, almost cutting of circulation, as, for the first time in her life, she was scared this would be her final day.
They stayed there, as the men slowly swept through the loft for nearly a minute, then a voice rang through the loft. "Jenny!"
Jenny recognized her brother's voice, and preceded the scream out, "Dan, Run!" She then let out a scream of pain, arching her back against the door.
Once stopped screaming seconds later, Blair could see that Jenny's demeanor had changed into something that Blair had never seen. Jenny's face had hardened her expression almost cold, but a fury radiating from her body.
Jenny reached out and grabbed the pair of metal scissors off her sewing table and stepped out into the doorway. She looked out and saw that the two men were facing away from her, pointing their crossbows at Dan who was standing at the front door, his hands up in the air. "Leave him alone," Jenny said, drawing the men's attention away from Dan.
The man closest to Jenny's room turned to look at the source of the statement, before letting out a laugh, "You think you can do something to stop us. Now, where are the books?"
Jenny didn't respond. She just stood there, and after a beat and a half, Jenny rushed forward, taking the man facing her by surprise. He regained his senses quickly enough, and fired off a shot at Jenny.
There was someone screaming her name, maybe more than one someone, but Jenny didn't really hear it as she dropped down to the ground and slid under the arrow, stabbing the scissors into the man's ankle, before standing up, bringing the scissor's with her.
The man Jenny was now standing in front of let out a loud scream, there now being a massive gash on his leg, starting from his ankle and heading all the way up to his knee. Jenny readjusted her grip on the scissors, as a single blood drop fell to the ground. It splashed on the hardwood floors as Jenny spurred into action once again, swinging the scissors up, and sinking them into the screaming man's neck, silencing him instantly, letting him fall to the ground as blood spewed out around the scissor's sticking out of his neck.
Jenny turned to face the other man, who was shaking a slight bit as he faced the girl. Jenny once again dash forward. The man panicked and fired off his crossbow. Jenny grabbed the arrow out of the air, twirling in in her hand so the arrow head was facing her opponent before stabbing it into his knee then, drawing it back out and spinning around the man's body, before finally sinking it in the back of the man's head, sending him to the ground as well.
Jenny stood there for a half second before her demeanor returned to what it was before, as she staggered back and let out a scream of horror. Blair ran out, and Dan ran into the loft, the two converging on Jenny.
"What was that Jenny?" Dan asked.
"I…I don't know," Jenny responded with.
"Okay, we need to get this all cleaned up. I can get one of my lawyers on the line, we can easily do a self-defense plea here. I will pay for everything here," Blair told Jenny, resting her hand on the girl's back, before pulling it back.
Blair grabbed Jenny by her shoulders and turned her a slight bit, so she could see Jenny's back. Blair let out a slight gasp, seeing two, very slowly pooling stains of blood on the back of Jenny's shirt. "Dan, I need you to go call the cops while I check Jenny out, make sure she doesn't have any injuries."
"What!? Jenny's injured. I need to check," Dan said franticly.
"Dan, I will need to check her back, which means I need her to take her shirt off, so you will leave it to us girls. She's safe with me Dan," Blair told Dan, before leading Jenny back into her room. "Take your shirt off Jenny."
Jenny complied numbly, taking off her shirt. Once Jenny's back was revealed, Blair let out a gasp. "What is it, is it bad?" Jenny asked nervously.
"Jenny, you're sprouting wings," Blair told the other girl.
There you go, I hope you guys are enjoying it, and please let me know what you think.
