Chapter 9 Escaping.

Morgan sat alone in her room. She had called Hunter an hour ago, telling him not to call or go after her. It looked like he had taken her advice. Morgan didn't know why but she felt more angry and hurt at that. Maybe he had taken the hint and wasn't going to press things. Maybe he didn't want to she thought. Morgan grabbed a book off her desk and chucked it at the wall letting out a small sob. She just wanted to run to somewhere where she would never be hurt again. There isn't such a place she thought bitterly.

Suddenly the doorbell rang, causing Morgan to jump. She hadn't felt anyone come. She wiped the tears away and walked downstairs. She opened the door to reveal an older woman in a long black coat and short brown hair. She looked about 40.

"So are you just going to stand there staring or are you going to let me in?" She asked jokily.

"Oh. Yeah sorry come in." Morgan said letting her through. She cast out her senses and could tell she was a strong witch.

"Do you do that with everyone?" She asked.

"Do what? Oh cast my senses? Um yea. Sorry I've had a lot of reasons not to trust people." Morgan said honestly.

"Of course dear" She said softly, taking a seat at the table.

"Who are you?" Morgan asked wearily.

"Oh sorry. My names Jane. I'm from the council."

"Oh" Morgan said taking a seat opposite her. "Is there something wrong?" She asked worried now.

"Oh no dear not really. I'm just here to inform you that the council have decided to have me replace Hunter's job here" She smiled softly.

"What! They are firing him?"

"No, no he is still a seeker. I'm not taking over that job. I mean his position as your teacher." She explained.

"I don't understand. That isn't his job he just does that to help me because he wants to" Morgan said confused.

"Well actually the council told him to stay here and teach you, keep an eye on you."

"What? So he has just been spying on me and reporting back to you!"

"No of course not. It isn't like that"

Morgan couldn't believe it. She thought Hunter was teaching her as her friend because he wanted to but now she knew that it was all a lie. He was doing it because he had to. She was his assignment just like she had been Cals.

"We just thought that with Cal being spotted in the area again that-"

"What!" Morgan shrieked. Cals back, she panicked. It just kept getting worse.

"You didn't know? Hunter was supposed to tell you" Jane said.

"He knew? He never said?" Morgan asked thinking of how it was another thing he had kept from her.

"I'm sure he meant to. Anyway I'm going to be your teacher from now on. I'll help protect you so Hunter will be able to get back to his job as a Seeker" She said calmly.

"His proper job you mean." Morgan said numbly. It hurt her so much to know he wasn't her friend and never was. He never had any choice about it. She was his job. She was also the thing holding him back.

"Yes. Look if you don't mind I will leave now and come back tomorrow and talk about it further."

"Yeah sure" Morgan said thinking to herself.

Jane crept out while Morgan stared off into space, glued to her chair. Not only had Hunter lied to her twice but Cal was back and probably after her and she was being watched and monitored by the council. Nothing was right.

She had to get away, from everything. If she stayed here she would only be hurt further. She would only hurt people further. Morgan ran upstairs and grabbed a back pack and stuffed it with clothes, some money, her book of shadows and anything else she might need. Her parents were both at work and Mary K was round a friend's house so she would be gone before anyone came home.

She ran downstairs and took her keys off the hook and ran out to her car. She threw her bag in and drove away. She didn't know where she was going; she only knew that she had to go.
