The Fallen
Ally's POV
I stared at the empty place in the file. It was empty...completely empty. Well this was not what I was going for. Suddenly the doorknob started to jiggle I quickly dropped the file back into its original place and closed it. I popped out of my seat just as the door opened. "Miss... what are you doing in my office." Ms. Lashley asked cocking an eyebrow. "Oh um I was just looking for a place I could lay down my iron pills and you would see them..." I stuttered. "Oh well you can just give them to me and be on your way. Wouldn't want your parents to worry now would we?" she said kindly. I gave her the pills and smiled as I walked out. I inhaled a deep breath of air as I casually walked into the front office once again.
"Find everything Ms. Dawson?" the lady at the front desk asked sweetly.
"Yes ma'am thank you." she smiled and I ran out of the office. I quickly made a bee line for the door and opened the front doors of the school breathing heavily. "Oh my god Ally I am so sorry I tried stalling Ms. Lashley for as long as I could but she wouldn't stay!" she said. I hugged her tightly, "Chill out Joy I'm fine I looked in the file." I said maintaining my breath.
"And...?"
"I found nothing." I reluctantly said.
"Nothing as in..?"
"As in the file was completely empty nothing." I said and she groaned.
"That can't be possible. Every one has history in their files." She said as we walked through the parking lot.
"Well Austin Moon is not one of them." she sighed and linked our arms. "Well I guess we'll never get the dirt on Austin Moon." we hugged and went our separate ways. I found the sidewalk and quickly ran down it as I saw my house come into view.
I walked up the porch steps and opened my door closing it quickly. "You're home early." I jumped at the sound of the voice and turned around to see Austin eating ice cream on my couch. "What the heck are you doing in my house!?" I yelled. I was a bit frightened at his casual manner and laid back posture. "Cassidy was brutally mugged today." He said getting off the couch and ignoring my question. I stepped back as he faced me.
"Well why are you telling me this?" I asked putting a hand on my hip.
"Police are coming over to your house." he said easily.
"Um why?"
"She said you mugged her, it's all over the news Ally. Do you watch TV or is that something you nerds don't do?" he said with a smirk. All I could do was stare at him in complete shock and horror.
"Why would she convict me of mugging her?!" I yelled.
"Oh did I say convict? Ha ha silly me... I meant you're a suspect." He said as he began to sip on a juice pack.
"Suspect!?" I yelled.
"Yeah. Didn't I just say that?" He said continuing his calm posture. ding dong ding dong...
"Oh that's the police." He sat down the juice box and ran over to my window. "Um excuse me what do you think you're doing, I have questions for you!" I yelled as he opened the window. "I- i can't be here right now I'll see you at school." And with that he disappeared out of the window. ding dong!
"I'm coming!" I yelled as I ran to the door and opened it. There stood a tall handsome blonde policeman... wow he was hot. "Hello are you... Allison Dawson?"
"Yes sir." I said calmly. If I knew anything about being in this kind of situation I knew that being calm was a top priority. "May I come in?" he asked, I opened the door wider as he stepped inside. I guided him to the kitchen as he took a seat in a chair. "So lets get straight to the point... a girl named Cassidy Anderson was brutally mugged she's is the hospital as we speak."
"Yes and I'm sorry to hear that, but what does this have to do with me?" I asked.
"We found your book in her back pack." He said intertwining his fingers.
"My book what do you mean?"
"It was a brown leather book with a bold pink letter A on it... we looked through it and found your name was in it." He said not breaking eye contact with me.
"Ok how did she even get her hands on my book?" I snapped at him. I was getting a bit angry she had my personal diary in her possession. "She managed to answer a few questions and I strictly remember her saying she didn't have that in her bag at all."
"Wow well that is a lie..." I said under my breath.
"Do you you and Ms. Anderson not get along on good terms?"
"No not really. She's one of the populars at our school and blackmails me to do her homework a lot." I said shyly. I never really shared this with anyone.
"So you would have a reason to mug her?"
"What? Of course not! Do I look like the kind of person capable of that stuff. My dad... was murdered a while back, I don't think anything he did influenced me to do that to someone."
"Ms. Dawson where were you yesterday?" he asked simply ignoring my earlier remark.
"I was at..." I stopped for a minute thinking about what I did yesterday, but it was slowly going away as if I could only see a bunch of fog clouding my entire memory. "Ms. Dawson answer the question." the officer said strictly. "I... I don't know." I stuttered, now I was getting completely scared. "Is there something I need to know about Ms. Dawson?"
"No." I said reluctantly. I was hesitating about my words and what I just said. I feel like I am losing my mind... "So you don't know where you were yesterday?" he asked getting out a notepad.
"I do it's just I don't exactly remember all of it..." god that made no sense whatsoever.
"It's ok maybe you're just going through a lot." He said sympathetically. "Yeah..."
"Well Ms. Dawson there is one crucial detail left."
"And that is...?" I questioned. "We found some notes in your book saying that you've wanted to hurt Cassidy..."
"Hurt Cassidy!? Look officer I don't know what's going on. I didn't hear about this until my friend told me." I said quickly.
"What friend?" he asked furrowing his brow.
"Oh it's no one. His name is Austin Moon, he goes to my school he's a transfer student. No big deal." I said nonchalantly. I could feel my whole body shake with fear. This better not be on my record. "Austin Moon... and when did he tell you this?" he asked seemingly getting interested in Austin.
"He just came by... he went out the back door but he told me it was all over the news and that's how he knew." I said easily. "Um miss, this stuff hasn't gone public at all. It's not even being broadcast on the news until sometime tomorrow night. No one should know about this, not even as we speak." I stood there in shock. How did Austin know about this? And why would he lie to me about it being all over the news when it wasn't? "Ma'am do you have this kids number?" he asked.
"No sir I'm sorry." I said as innocently as I could. This guy was starting to give me the creeps.
"Ok thank you for your time." He said as he got up out the chair. I nodded and led him to the door. We shook hands and he left as I heard the sound of his cop car backing out of my driveway.
Austin's POV
I threw my cigarette bud on the ground as I kicked it into a steep mud puddle. I walked into Joey's Jungle and made my way through the crowd of big bearded men and slutty women with tattoo's on their backs and jeans showing their V line with nothing but a tank top on and heels. This was the place where hook ups are made of so this wasn't exactly a surprise on my history of life.
I walked into a back room as the door slammed shut. I didn't even budge, for I knew who it was. "Hello Austin."
"Same to you Boreas." I said as I sat down in a chair. With a snap of his fingers the lights flickered on. "You're wasting time." he said giving me a glare. "And you don't think I don't know that already?" I snapped at him.
"Someone's been watching you Ascelpius." he said softly almost in a whispered tone.
"What do you mean?"
"I mean someone's been watching you... and very carefully." He lit up a cigar and took a seat in a chair across from me.
"Well do you know who it is? Is it those stupid guardians I don't like?" I snapped. Those stupid guardian angels were so annoying it was hard to believe they were even angels.
He gave me a stare, "Ascelpius, I don't know who it is, but I know it isn't a guardian angel. Have you tried to control Ally's mind? Get inside her dreams?" he asked continuing to smoke his cigar. "As much as I would love to get inside of Ally's mind, I can't there is some type of guard."
"Someone's already in her mind..." Boreas said suddenly.
"Wait what? That's not possible. I don't know any other person that could do that other than me. I am the last of that kind. I am the only one that can enter people's mind. I am suppose to be the last mind manipulator in all of the immortal world!"
"Well apparently you aren't." he said with a wicked smile. I got up and slammed him against a wall. "If this is so god damn funny, you can go do this freaking stuff on your own!" I yelled at him.
He pushed me away and brushed off his shirt, "Calm down." I closed my eyes and too a deep breath. "How about I just break down the guard while he's still in there and destroy him in her dreams?" I suggested. "You can't." Boreas said simply. "Why not!?" I snapped once again.
"Because the source of her powers and dreams are from her heart." I starred at him and started to laugh loudly. He looked at me like I was crazy. "Ha! From her heart!? I think all Fallen's know that powers can't come from the heart it comes from the mind."
"Ally's not a Fallen, she's the long lost daughter of Titan."
"T-titan? You mean THE great Titan that disappeared over 5 billion years ago?" I said in complete shock.
"Who else would I be talking about?" he argued.
"Oh I don't know someone who's alive?!" I yelled. "So what you're saying is that we're dealing with Titan's long lost daughter... the daughter of the greatest god in the Heavens?"
"Precisely." he said with a smile. "How the Hades am I suppose to give her to you she has remarkable powers!"
"That she doesn't know about Austin." he said with a sly smile. "5 billion years ago. Before you were ever born.. Titan fell in love with a human they were apparently so in love they decided to have a baby... but during the birth... her mother died. Soon after the birth people say Titan only held Ally one time before disappearing without a trace."
"So Ally's mom, where does she come into this?" I asked folding my arms.
"Well it's as simple as it is... Ally's adopted."
