A/N Hey guys, today I am writing this at school, so I am really nervous that the teacher will accidentally see something he doesn't like.
Voice in my head: Jeez, chillax, dude you'll be fine.
Me: O.O Are you ok?
Voice in my head: Blah, just continue writing.
Me: But the disclaimer…
Voice in my head: Oh, yeah, "We do not owe the Iron Fey series, Julie Kawaga does."
Me: … Own…
Voice in my head: What? Oh, well, JUST GET WRITING.
Claire's p.o.v.
You have got to be kidding me. Is this what my life is going to be now? Being hunted by the fey? I looked over to see Layla laughing at the top of her lungs; I knew I should have fed her some food after running. Now she was going to crazy for the rest of the day. I sighed; this was going to be a long day.
The goblins stared at Layla, and then the one we saw in the park shook his head, "What are you doing?"
Jane ran up to Layla and grabbed her arm, twisting it, "Calm down, or they will think you aaare weak," I heard her growl out to Layla.
Layla rolled her head, "You're no fun."
Jane rolled her eyes and looked at the goblins, "What do you want with them?"
"Well, you see," For once the goblin looked nervous; I pondered how Jane can be terrifying, but came up blank, Huh, strange. "That one there," pointing to me," said thank you when we, uh, saw each other in the park, and I complimented her."
Jane scowled at me, "Don't know not to thank a faery? Or did you just want to die?"
I blanched, "Are you kidding me faeries aren't real! They're fiction, not real life, and who knows not to thank a faery?"Layla began to raise her hand but I hissed at her, "Not you, you were there with me."
She shrugged and looked towards the goblins that were bravely advancing watching Jane with careful eyes, "So, as you can see she owes us something of our choice. And we chose to take her and her friend," He gestured to Layla, "To the Nevernever, and have them do something for us."
Layla cocked her head to the side, "Do what?"
The goblin grinned at her, "That is confidential." He was nearest to Jane now, but just as he reached he one of the other goblins dropped to the ground with a knife in his head.
Everyone gasped and looked up, I saw nothing in the trees except for a bird then remembered that she was dealing with the fey. The bird himself was probably the one to throw the… I watched, baffled, as the bird transformed into a freaking guy. With pointy ears, and red hair, he was intimidating, well except for the fact that he was grinning from ear to ear.
"Well, now, isn't this interesting?" His voice was filled with mischief, then heaped down and pulled out the knife from the fallen goblin.
Layla's p.o.v.
I fought against the craziness in my head. It was telling me to kill the goblins, then take everything they had. My sane side thought differently, saying we should first find out who the strange boy was. Then I thought, Why not do both?
A/N Sorry, that this is so short, but the period is ending in 6 minutes, so I have to wrap this up. I post the other half tomorrow. Bye!
