Chapter 7: Lightchaser's history
"Elizabeth?"
"What?" Kara looked at the ghost boy annoyed as she dragged the complaining Freakshow along.
"Your first name," Levi explained as he looked back at the sad old man, "Is it Elizabeth?"
"No," Kara replied as the unlikely looking trio continued across the desert to where Kara's friend, fellow witch, and apparently genius at everything had told them that the map indicated the treasure was.
"Oh….What about Rachel?" Levi added casting a light ice mist around them, "Or Katie?"
"No to both," Kara gave Levi an annoyed look "is this how you're going spend our time till we get to the city?"
"Pretty much!" Levi smirked and added a couple names to his list, "Natalie, Miranda, Ashley?"
Kara ignored Levi as Freakshow began complaining, "Why must we walk witch?" Kara glared a glare that was the stuff of nightmares, back at Freakshow before Levi broke the tension, "Poor Dracos got overheated remember."
"Of course he did," Freakshow mumbled as they continued on, "And you're sure this city…"
"Tekoa," Kara responded as she looked down at the map on her phone.
"…Is where your friend says?" Freakshow challenged as he motioned to the endless desert around them.
"Reaper is always right," Kara responded as she pointed to a distant rock formation, "It's one of her more annoying traits that comes in handy."
"You found a long lost rock," Freakshow taunted clapping his hands, "Congratulations."
"You have to deal with him just till you get back to Ariel, You have to deal with him just till you get back to Ariel," Kara chanted to herself as they continued to the rock formantion.
At this point Kara was regretting not dropping Freakshow off at the Lightchaser's clan's city of Ariel and ditching Levi when she had the chance. But one Levi might be handy and was decent enough company and two, Isak Lightchaser might have set up traps that only his descendent could deactivate.
Still….
"Jane, Wendy, Olivia, Penny? It's Penny right?"
"I still think this is idiotic!"
….She was getting ready to snap at any moment.
…
Sam sat quietly cuddling with her husband as she explained, "I'll be honest. I always feared for Lily, Luke, and Levi. But I loosened up as they got older and better at their powers and I grew confident that no one could bet the three together. But then Lily and Luke moved away. I know there skilled Danny and Nathan and Vanessa will take care of them but….But…."
"Levi is more like me," Danny finished for her, "Reckless and clueless."
"I saw the witch," Sam added looking scared, "She was young, pretty, and everything Levi would buy into. But she gave no second thoughts when destroying Main Street. I'm scared she won't think twice if Levi challenges her to hurt him."
Danny sighed as he thought about Levi, "He's smarter than that. He won't do anything to stupid, just cause Lily and Luke aren't with him doesn't mean he's not coming back."
Sam sniffles a little and buries her face in Danny's shoulder, "I hope your right."
Unknown to Danny and Sam, their youngest two children heard the whole conversation and were looking at each other worried.
…..
Back with the trio, Freakshow had been knocked out by Kara because he had said….Less say it was unfavorable sentence and Kara had punched him out pissed out. Levi had offered to carry him since he felt bad for the poor ole' jerk to be dragged around by Kara's invisible rope.
Thus Levi was carrying him over his shoulder, thank god for ghost strength, while following the as she stopped as they reached the edge of the rock formation and Levi dropped Freakshow for a moment.
Levi studied Kara as she muttered words to herself running her glowing orange hand in the air. Kara was a very good looking girl her bright blonde hair looking almost white in the bright Middle Eastern sun, her grey eyes studying the air thru her glasses, her black fedora that honestly didn't match her orange and white plaid button. How she was related to the creep of the ground he'll never know. "Hey, Kari-"
"Don't call me Kari," Kara snapped back as she pulled out her phone again, "What?"
"Well, I just wanted to ask how old you are," He nudged, she had grown tired of his name game and didn't want to push her anymore but this question had been bugging him a little, "I'll tell you my age as a bonus."
"You're eighteen," Kara replied simply as she closed her phone, " I also now you're the middle child in your family, you like computers and technology, you were named after your 'uncle' Tucker, your attending APCC in the fall, hate veggies, and you are known as the clueless one of the Phantom Three."
Levi stared shocked at the girl, "How do you know that?"
"Magic," Kara replied in a dead serious tone that caused Levi to go wide before Kara erupted in laughter, "No, I'm just screwing with you. Your life is on the internet. I learned all that from a Phantom fan site."
"Oh," Levi grumbled a little. He never knew all his secrets were up for grabs for anyone who looked.
Kara smiled a little as she said, "I'll be back in ten minutes. I'll going to check the area out." Levi nodded as he sat beside Freakshow on the ground as Kara began to walk away.
Kara paused and looked back at the young man for a second, "Twenty."
"Minutes? If you say so," Levi mumbled annoyed till he noticed the amused look of Kara's face.
"I meant I am twenty," Kara rolled her eyes as she walked away leaving Levi with the knocked out cold Freakshow.
Levi smiled, "Me thinks I'm getting through to her." Levi honestly liked Kara.
"So, you like the witch," a grouchy voice taunted laughing.
Levi glanced annoyed at Freakshow, "You're awake?"
Freakshow ignored his commented, "I'd be careful, the Lightchaser clan is nothing but violent, lying, and power hunger people."
"Like you," Levi joked.
"Laugh all you want Phantom," Freakshow replied not amused at Levi's response, "The Lightchaser clan have destroyed dynasties, civilizations, and even entire races of people. Let's just say Atlantis wasn't always a lost city."
Levi turned and stared as Freakshow continued, "They've always had their hands in something. Troy, the burning of London, the Crusades, The American Civil War, far too many events to count were caused by their interventions."
Levi shook his head not imagine that one group of people caused all those events.
"The Lightchasers are people that only want power," Freakshow finished, "And will kill to get it." Freakshow's words sent a chill up Levi's spine.
