Chapter 4

Mina felt so many emotions boil up inside her. She wanted to kill him yet at the same time she wanted to kiss him and tell him she loved him. She stood there stunned, not knowing what to do.

"I see your quite pleased to see me!" Teague smirked.

"I will kill you!" Mina growled.

"Tsk. Tsk. Is that how your going to treat your true love" Teague said with a devilish grin.

"Why, Teague? Why would you do this." Mina asked holding tears back.

"Why, Mina it's my job to make you suffer. My entire life's work has been to... reunite... Jared and I and to make you stupid Grimms miserable. I killed two birds with one stone." Teague said smling.

"Teague, I won't stop fighting you. I will destroy you. I will save Jared." Mina looked at him with anger in her eyes. "I WILL kill you!" Mina said angrily.

"No you won't. You will never kill me." Teague said.

Mina stared at him contemplating her next move when Teague collapsed on the ground, groaning in pain. He closed his eyes and screamed. Mina stared in horror and in happiness. Happy because Teague was in pain, scared because Jared might be in pain. When Teague opened his eyes they weren't blue anymore, they were gray. Like Jareds. He looked up at Mina. This wasn't Teague...This was Jared.

"Mina." Jared said.

"Jared!"Mina said pulling him into a hug.

"Is he gone?" Mina asked after letting go from his warm embrace.

"No!" Jared groaned obviously in pain. "The only way to kill him and save me is to take the Grimoire at midnight tomorrow. Trap Teague inside but not me. Close the book when you see his...my eyes turn gray. Teague will try to use his powers to make you keep the book open so I get trapped as well. Try and fight it but if you can't... Mina it will be okay. I don't blame you, so don't blame yourself." Jared said as his eyes slowly turned blue.

Mina nodded. "I will save you." She said.

Jared smiled. "Goodbye, Mina. I love you."

"I love you too." Mina whispered but it was to late. Teague was back.

"Till next time, Grimm!" Teague said laughing evilly as he disappeared into the night.

Mina lay on the ground. Trying to breath. Her breaths were shallow. She tried to imagine her self saving Jared tomorrow but every time she ran it through her mind she saw herself failing and Jared getting sucked into the Grimoire. She sat leaning against her car, crying her eyes out. Mina saw a light in the distance. She looked up to see a school bus. She saw her school name written on the side. Mina pulled her knees up by her face. She saw the bus slowly beging to slow down and pull over by Mina's car. Mina felt a warm hand on her shoulder and looked up to see Nix.

"What are you doing here?" Mina asked sourly.

"We had a water polo meet in GreenVille. When I saw you I had the bus pull over." Nix answered. "Please come with me Mina." Nix said desperately.

"Fine." Mina whispered. She tried to stand up but her legs wouldn't cooperate and she collapsed back on the ground not having the energy to stand.

Nix didn't say anything he just instantly bent down and picked Mina up. Carrying her as if she were a baby. Mina noticed that there wasn't a bus driver. It was one of the water polo guys driving the bus. He walked up the bus steps and gently set Mina down and helped her walk into an empty seat. He sat down next to her and wrapped his arms around her. Mina buried her face into Nix's shoulder. Allowing tears to flow from her eyes. She noticed the entire team staring at them. She noticed Brody sitting a couple seats ahead of her. He was staring at her concerned.

"Mina what were you doing there?" Nix asked.

"Talking to Teague." Mina responded honestly.

"What!" Nix exclaimed.

Mina didn't talk till the end of the bus ride. As she was about to get off she turned to Nix and said, "I'm leaving tomorrow... to the fae plane. I just thought you should know." Mina turned and walked off the bus.

When Mina got home she grabbed her old backpack and started packing it. She put a small bit of food inside, a flash light, batteries, a large knife and the grimoire.

Mina set the back pack beside her bed. She lied down on her bed and almost instantly fell asleep. Dreaming of going to the Fae plane and failing in saving Jared.
