This is a different style of writing then the rest are in and this will be the only chapter like it but I thought it was necessary for readers to get a couple of things. I hope it's a good chapter.
It was eleven when Matt got the text from Mettreah.
We decided to see two movies : ) Don't wait up for me :D
It was three in the morning now. I was still awake. I was paranoid and over thought almost about everything; literally everything. On the inside when you said, "Hi," to me I would completely analyze it. I will pull it apart and come out later with what you really meant.
Being paranoid combined with over thinking combined with the horrible vibes I had been getting had not allowed myself to get to sleep. So there I sat downing the last of the cans of pop staring at the door.
I wasn't calling her because if I was wrong and they had just decided to have an extra long night then she would torment me to death about me 'actually caring.' This was something that would be told to Sam and then Tabby and there was no way anyone from Black*Star's family was going to think I Matthew John WIlliams was soft.
But on the other hand what if she was in trouble? What if something had happened? I'd feel terrible that I didn't know right away because of my pride. I picked up my phone making my decision. After dialing I pressed the device to his ear.
Ring! Ring! Ring! Ring! Ring! Ring! Please leave a message at the beep. Beep!
He cleared his thought. "Hey, it's Matt. I know you told me not to wait for you but I was watching a movie marathon and noticed the time so yeah. . . " He trailed off. He felt a little bad about lying but it wasn't hurting anyone. "So yeah it's like three in the morning so I'm just wondering where you are? If you could call me sooner than later would be good."
I hung up. She should have answered the phone. She should have picked up and then teased me and gave an explanation for why she's not home. She should have at least picked up the phone.
I waited about ten minutes and called again leaving a message almost identical. It was my fifth time when I started to get worried. That somehow translated into yelling.
"Mettreah Charlee Williams! You call me in the next couple of minutes or I swear I'm going to go out there in the middle of the night looking for you!" I huffed for a moment and then calmed down, "Seriously, Mett I'm really worried." I hung up and put my phone in my pocket. I went to the door in a walk and before I hit the streets I had escalated into a run.
Fear had consumed me. She was all the family I had left but more than that she was my best friend and partner. It was my responsibility to keep her safe. It was my responsibility as her partner and her older brother. So I ran as fast as my feet could take me going to every place I could think of that she and Finn might go to.
I had no idea how long I'd been running for when I had to sit and take a break. First, I called Mett; no answer. Second, I called Finn; same outcome. What if something had happened to both of them?
I had only been thinking about Mett but Finn was my good friend as well. I felt bad that his safety had barely crossed my mind until now.
I checked the time it was five in the morning. I was running on no sleep. He sighed and sent a text out to Tabby, Sam and Billy.
Emergency! Can't find Mett or Finn! Both have disappeared need help!
I continued to run; now heading in the direction of our apartment. Maybe they were playing some sick joke on me.
The question arose in my mind; was this Mett and mine new thing? Would I always have to run through the night trying to find her? Was it because we had come to Death City? Was that really the right choice? We had been doing great in Canada it was just that we couldn't catch a witch. I need to catch a witch.
My thoughts were interrupted by my leg vibrating. I took my phone out and read the screen it was Billy.
seriously? I need a minute to break out of my house where r u? I will head to Finn and kyle's house
I quickly texted back to him.
I'm on my way home to see if she turned up. Please keep me posted.
I continued to run.
I had read an autobiography on Black*Star. It was written by one of his good friends Maka Albarn. She had written a whole series on each friend of hers. I'd only read the Black*Star book but once I was done I decided to live my life like Black*Star.
One chapter was about him taking a test. He had punished himself while studying. I decided to do the same from there on.
While studying for my grade eight exam I ran one lap around my neighborhood every time I got an answer wrong which was a lot. The good thing about it was that now I could run long distance no problem. I wasn't fast like my sister but I wasn't slow either.
I was opening the door when my leg started to vibrate. Before I could pull out my phone I saw that Tabby and Sam were already in my apartment.
Sam asked, "Have you found them?"
I shook my head. "No, I haven't. I just got a text though maybe that's her; I mean them!" I pulled it out. It was from Billy. I was speechless after reading the screen.
I just got to their house Kyle is dead it looks like hes been dead for a couple hours there's no sign of Finn or Mett I'll be at your place asap!
I looked up to them both. Tabby seemed on edge and Sam looked like she always did but I could see a little worry in her eyes.
I opened my mouth but words wouldn't form. Tabby looked confused, "Matt what happened?"
"Kyle he's . . ." I trailed off not being able to get it out.
Sam snatched my phone, "It can't be that bad!" she read the text and gaped. "He's . . He's dead?"
Tabby grabbed the phone from Sam. "What?" She went silent. We all did.
Finally I asked, "What do we do?" The possibilities started to accumulate.
Sam spoke up looking confident. "I have Soul Perception! I can find them both!"
I smiled, "That's great!"
Sam nodded, "I need to get to a high place though."
Tabby cut in, "When Billy get's here he came fly you up on his skate board."
Sam sighed, "Do you think Mett and Finn are alright?"
"I don't know. My sister wouldn't be able to sink wavelengths with him so they wouldn't be able to fight well if they needed to. She and I have irregular wavelengths so far we can only be each other's partner."
The door slammed open from behind me. I turned to see Billy. He ran in, "It was definitely murder!"
Sam looked at him, "I need you to fly me up on your board so I can use Soul Perception to find them."
"Kay, but I'm a little confused what happened last night?" It popped into my mind Billy had been locked up in his house since Vegas he had no idea.
Sam started to explain, "Mett and Finn went on a date last night. Neither of them got home. Matt has been running around like a maniac trying to find them and now Kyle is dead."
Billy looked shocked and a little angry. "They went on a date?" Apparently that was all he took from her explanation.
Sam grabbed his shirt and started to drag him hurry up we need to go. They were both off to locate them both. Tabby looked at me with sympathetic eyes, "It'll be fine. I'm sure they're both fine. Finn would protect her. He's just that kind of guy."
I nodded. Thinking of something I led her into Mett's filthy room. It was a pig sty so I quickly grabbed what I needed and joined her in the hallway. I had gotten Mett's Belt. "If you wear this you should be able to hold Sam and I while ride with Billy on his board. That way we can go faster."
She smiled, "Great idea!" She took it and put it on. It clashed with her outfit but I could care less. She still looked very pretty.
I heard the door open and ran to it. Billy and Sam were there. I asked, "Do you know where they are? Are they together?"
Sam nodded, "Yes, they are about seven hours outside of the city."
Tabby ran up somehow told Sam to transform telepathically. After she had her resting on her shoulder I transformed. Tabby put me in her belt. I could hear her speak. "We'll ride on your board."
Soon we were soaring through the air. I could feel the wind even in my sword form. We were absolutely going fast. It only took a minute or so for Tabby to ask, "Billy can we slow down a little. I get that we need to hurry but I can barely hold on."
He slowed down slightly. "Sorry, I wasn't thinking."
When we arrived at where Sam and Billy knew Mett and Finn were I was surprised at what I saw. There was a metal hatch. It was located in the middle of the desert. When I tried to open it, the door eased open slowly making an awful noise.
Before I could go through Billy ran ahead. He called back, "Let's go I can sense their wavelengths!"
Sam jumped ahead as well, "They're the only ones here! The person who took them here probably left them tied up or something!"
Tabby and I ran after. When we caught up I could see Billy kicking down a door. We all stepped into a room. Tabby flicked a switch and light filled the room. I could see Mett and Finn. He looked full of rage while she looked like she didn't recognize me.
******************1 hour earlier*********************
I woke up slowly. I rolled over not registering where I was or remembering what happened. I felt drowsy like I did every morning. This was odd though usually Matt would wake me up. I decided mentally that I should probably get my ass out of bed.
Pushing myself up I could feel that what I was on was not a soft pillow, a blanket or a mattress. It felt cold and smooth. When I finally opened my eyes I could see I was lying on a large metal table.
Instantly everything came back to me. I franticly looked around. I was in the center of a dark room. All that was lit was the table I was on. I sat on my knees almost afraid to step down to the floor. It struck me I'd call Matt! I had brought my phone with me!
I went to grab it out of my pocket and found that it wasn't there. I checked them all but no dice. I was without my phone. A voice came from behind me. "Yeah, I took your phone."
I turned my head to see Finn. Isn't crazy that in the matter of hours you can turn your feelings from crush to love to fear? I mean last night I went on that date thinking he was cute. I was coming home thinking he was my prince charming if there was such a thing and now I was terrified of him.
His smile which once made me feel like I was walking on air now made me feel sick to my stomach. He was wearing different clothes then I'd ever seen him in. He only wore skin tight pants. They were dark blue. He looked wet. His hair was dripping with water.
I went to get down from the table thinking I'd run. If I remembered correct I couldn't transform. Before I came to slide off the edge of the table his voice came from in front of me. "I wouldn't do that if I were you."
I was perched on the edge with my feet dangling. He was at my eye level. I replied in a rude tone, "What? Try to escape?" I swung my legs back and went to the opposite side of the table. Getting up as fast as my body would go I jumped off the table trying to go as fast as I could to get away. I went to land in the darkness hoping it would lead to a door but when my feet touched the floor they fell right through.
The next thing I knew I was submerged in ice cold water. I swam to the surface and huffed and puffed from the surprising lack of air. I was so confused where was I? My teeth chattered as I tried to swim back to the table. I discovered it was simply a large slab of metal. I couldn't climb back onto it. I was stuck in this freezing water.
I tried to transform thinking I might be able to use my blade to climb but I still couldn't transform. Feeling the water behind me move I turned to see Finn standing on the water's surface. The first thing that came to my mind was that he was Jesus but then it occurred to me he would be a lot nicer.
"How are you doing that?" My voice was shaking from the cold.
"I'm a witch. Most of us take after an animal. I take after a shark. I can control water with barely any concentration. It comes in handy." He grinned from ear to ear. "Get it pointy teeth, my name is Finn!" He started to laugh. "It never stops to amaze me how much people are shocked."
I was still just getting my brain wrapped around him being a witch. He had deceived us all. He had pretended to be best friends with Billy. He had gone on a date with me. I yelled not being able to keep it in, "You're a horrible jerk of a person!"
He chuckled. Putting out his hand he asked, "Would you like some help out of the water?" I hesitated not wanting to be anywhere nears him. "We wouldn't want you to freeze would we?"
I reluctantly gave him my hand. He lifted me up out of the water. And somehow I was standing on it. It was so weird. I was literally walking on water. He let go of my hand and smirked. The water under my feet seemed to move. I felt the support under my feet go and once again I was in the water. I looked up to him. He was laughing uncontrollably.
It occurred to me he was insane. This time he didn't offer his hand he grabbed mine. Pulling me up so that I was on my knees he stopped laughing. I was still cold but at least now I had a chance to get warmer. "Sorry about that Mett but I couldn't resist. OH! And the look on your face was priceless!"
I got up on one knee. "You're fucking insane!" Getting to my feet I looked him in the eye. "How can you live with yourself? You wormed your way into DWMA! Then became fake friends with everyone! To top it all off you want to make me some sort of weapon slave!" I was shouting and furious. "You're a Monster and an Ass Whole!" I brought my hand up and slapped him across the face. I could hear it. It had to have hurt; it hurt my hand slightly.
There was a red mark on his face when he turned his head back and looked me in the eye. He definitely qualified as scary. He looked like he was going to hit me but smiled instead. The water under my feet moved. I knew what was coming. I was going to fall back in. I acted on instinct and lunged for him. My arms shot around his waist.
Only my knees down were in the water. He looked down to me and laughed. I could feel his stomach move with his laughter. "Are you going to beg for your freedom?"
I barked out, "Never!"
"Okay," He looked smug.
I felt something yank me down. The water was now half way up my thigh. I still held on to Finn. He asked, "Are you sure?"
Gapping I was losing my cool that is the scraps I had left. "No! You can't scare me!"
I was yanked down again now the water was at my stomach. I tried to kick my legs but they wouldn't move. My arms were wrapped around his legs until he walked off away from me. I pushed down with all my might trying to somehow break the water's force.
"Are you sure Mettreah? Wouldn't you rather be alive? I hear drowning one of the most painful ways to go." I was yanked into the water again this time only my chest, arms and head were left free. "Think about it all the air will leave your lungs and then you'll unwillingly take in water. It'll fill your lungs and then without the oxygen you'll die." He laughed.
It all went through my head but I refused to beg. If I was going to die I was going to hold my head high until the last second! I would not give Finn the slightest satisfaction!
He leaned down as the water slowly took me in. My arms were already under. All that was above the surface were my shoulders and head. He came down on one knee and grabbed my cheek with one hand. He rubbed his thumb back and forth on my cheek bone. "Is that your final decision?"
I spat with the last of my strength at his face. It hit him square on. I could see the saliva drape from his forehead across his nose and slide to his cheek. Suddenly I was pulled completely underwater. I tried to swim out or even move but I couldn't I was stuck. My arms and legs limp I was surrounded by water.
It was so cold and dark I felt like I was in a dark fridge with Finn holding the door shut. I couldn't hold in my air any longer. As I opened my mouth the bubbles sped away to the surface. I was just about to be forced to take in water when I saw a figure come down to me.
It was Finn. He'd probably come to see my death. He came close; really close. Are chests touched and he kissed me. If I could have moved I would have hit him but all I could do was let him kiss me once again as he held me tightly. I was about to black out when he pulled me tighter and swam at a not human speed.
The next thing I knew I was sopping wet and lying on the Metal slab. He sat cross legged as I coughed up water. He looked content as I sent death glares his way. My jeans and blouse clung to my body. I pushed my upper body up but my legs were frozen still. My hair was dripping wet and my bangs stuck to my face. I felt like a drowned rat.
I was shivering. He placed his hand on my shoulder. I didn't bother to swat him away. I had no energy left. He smiled like he was my nurse, "You're cold. I'll go get you a blanket."
He stood up and left. I could hear his voice form the darkness. "I think it's time." I knew what he was talking about he was going to erase my memories. "I don't understand why you're so worried about it." He was now back. He wrapped me in the blanket. I stayed silent feeling like frozen crap.
"If my knowledge is right you're parents died when you were young and you were raised in over a dozen different orphanages. Do you really want to have those memories?"
I shouted back at him. "Shut up! Of course I want to remember my parents!"
He started to yell back, "Do you really remember them? I mean you were like five when they were killed! Matt was seven though, yes? Isn't he the reason you two started DWMA work? Because he wanted revenge! He remembered your parents!" He turned soft, "I can make all that pain go away. If I take your memories away you won't feel the pain."
"Stop it!" I wanted to hit him but my arms and legs wouldn't move they were shaking too much. "You don't know anything! They were killed by a witch like you! I'd never comply too anything you wanted!"
"That's too bad." He shook his head. "I guess I have no choice I'll have to do it by force."
I tried to get away but it was futile. He grabbed me and pulled me into an embrace. I hated no despised him but h was so warm and I was so cold. I couldn't think I couldn't do anything except cry and shake. He started to chant about the ocean.
His eyes glowed a blue and I could help but look at them. They were mesmerizing. I felt myself fade away. I was powerless to it. I could hear him laugh.
I had one thought though. If I could remember Matt I could rebuild everything from my life. I pictured Matt. Thinking about him and what he looked like memories from our childhood flowed back to me.
He eventually started to fade but I tried so hard to hold on to that one memory but . . . .
Why is this boy laughing? Why is he holding me? Where are we? Why am I so cold? Why was I wet? Why is he smiling?
He asked in a kind voice, "Do you know who you are?"
Well, that was a stupid question I am . . . . Who am I?
"No, I don't."
His eyes softened even more. Tilting his head he spoke in a gentle voice, "Good. All there is to do now is link your soul to mine."
I didn't know if this was a good thing or not so I asked? Or what it felt like? Or what it in tailed?
"Does that hurt?"
He shook his head. "No, it doesn't hurt at all."
Dependence was what I felt for this boy. He was my only link to anything. At this point I'd do anything he said not knowing what else there is. I felt like a baby bird first seeing their mother. It was a warm feeling.
I felt something connect to my soul. It felt like he was grabbing it until I heard the slam of something. The boy looked mad. He turned over to where the noise came from so I did the same. There were two girls and two boys starring at us.
I felt like I knew one of the boys. I couldn't even begin to remember him though but I could feel something strange about his presence.
The girl with blue hair yelled, "The great me is here to save you two!"
Do I need saving? Who is she? Why is she great? Who are these people? Who is this boy in front of me? Once again who am I?
My thinking stopped when the boy stood up and looked me in the eye. "Don't move." I nodded.
I stayed perfectly still looking on to the scene.
The boy with Brown hair yelled across the water, "Mettreah are you okay?"
Who is Mettreah? Why is he looking at me?
The boy yelled back, "She's fine Matt." He seemed irritated.
The brown haired boy's name was Matt. Matt took off his shirt. "I'll come get you guys! Are you chained or something?"
The boy said in his still irritated tone, "No, we aren't chained."
Matt stopped, "Then why are you two just sitting there?"
The boy spoke with a huge smirk on his face, "Because we're on a date!"
We are on a date? Do I love this boy?
The other boy with black and white hair spoke up, "Finn we got to talk!"
So the boy's name was Finn. Finn laughed, "Why do we need to talk Billy?"
The boy with the black hair Billy shouted, "You know damn well why Finn! You were supposed to talk me up not ask her out!"
Finn laughed, "I hadn't thought I'd be found out but I guess it's unavoidable, I'll have to kill you all."
The girl with the white hair shouted, "What the hell are you talking about Finn?"
"Well, I've been meaning to tell you guys. I'm really a witch and well I was bored with Kyle so I killed him and now I'm taking Mettreah here as my weapon and going to kill all of you."
So my name is Mettreah.
Matt questioned, "What? Come again I think I heard you wrong. I thought you said you were a witch."
Finn spoke in an even tone, "I did. You didn't hear wrong."
Sam transformed and landed in Tabby hands. Tabby spoke in an uneasy tone, "This is my specialty. My family mainly goes after witches."
Billy looked petrified. His voice was shaking, "Finn this better be a joke! I've known you for years! How in the hell are you a witch?" I realized he was shaking out of rage.
Finn walked over to the edge of the metal thing I was on. "Billy don't be stupid truly we were never friends. I was always just getting information for the witches council." His smile was sick, "But I've been done for a couple months and was planning on leaving town the night you decided to take Matt and Mettreah to Blair's. When I saw her though, I couldn't resist trading in Kyle for a new and improved weapon. I mean he was becoming so boring."
Billy looked furious. Before He could yell at Finn though Matt started to, "I'm going to rip your fucking witch head off! You're dead!" Matt was seething. It seemed familiar somehow. He looked to Billy, "Want to help me kill a good for nothing witch?"
Billy looked a little shocked, "Yeah, sure." Matt transformed into a sword. It was beautiful. Billy caught him before he could hit the ground and then brought out a skate board of some kind. It flew. In a blur they speeded over the water towards Finn and I.
I disobeyed what Finn had said and moved I couldn't help it. I was scared it was such a raw feeling. I moved back and saw that Billy tried to stab the sword into Finn. He moved though and jumped into the water. It was so dark I don't think anybody could see where he had gone.
Billy hovered beside me. Looking at me with questioning eyes he looked worried. "Are you alright?" I didn't answer. "Mettreah, are you okay?"
I asked not being able to hold myself back, "Is that my name?"
A voice came from the sword, "What did you do to my sister Finn?"
Does he mean me? I'm his sister?
Sam yelled from where her and Tabby were. "Watch out!" I turned to see them trying to slice through water. It had defied all laws of gravity and came up like an arm to attach them. They were doing good until it came behind Tabby in a smaller portion and tripped her.
I turned my attention to Billy who had yanked me up. I was now standing the blanket that covered me now on the floor. He spoke, "We need to get out of here." Billy held my arm tight but not so much to hurt me.
"Running away with your tail in between your legs already?" It was Finn but he sounded meaner.
Billy yelled out, "Finn come out so I can kick your ass!"
The pressure of Billy's hand on my arm left and so did the image of him. It was all in a blur. I looked in front of me to see Billy and the sword Matt slicing through water. I heard a voice from behind me, "Okay."
I didn't have to turn to know it was Finn. He came to sit cross legged beside me. He ushered for me to sit so I did. Clutching my knees to my chest I looked on to see both pairs fighting. My body was still shaking from the cold.
I didn't get it.
Why are they fighting? Why are they so mad? How can the water do that? Is my name really Mettreah?
I felt a hand come around me I was thankful for the warmth. I turned my head slightly to see Finn focusing on the battle but he didn't look overly concentrated. I asked him, "Am I Mettreah?"
He ignored me and stood up. He was looking down to me with rage filled eyes when something knocked him off his feet. He was sent flying across the room. My eyes followed his form as he passed over the water and onto the wall and slump down to the ledge.
I was still sitting when something scooped me up. I didn't struggle against it but simply let it take me. We were going too fast for me to make out anything.
When we stopped we were in front of the girl with blue hair. I looked up to see Billy holding me by the stomach. His one arm was wrapped tight around me while his other held the sword boy. The girl with dark blue hair hopped onto back. He went again this time not going as fast.
We soon came out to a desert. The air was very hot. I started to warm up rapidly. We continued to speed bringing up a wave of dirt. Billy started talking in a worried voice, "We won't be able to go this fast with his many people for long!"
Tabby suggested, "It Mettreah turns to a sword we could keep going right?"
I can transform like that boy? Who exactly are these people? Who am I? Who was Finn? Will he come to get me?
I looked up to the black haired boy, "Who are you people?"
I felt a hand on my shoulder, I turned to see it be the blue haired girl, "We're your friends."
Just as the thought of friends came over me I felt myself lunged forward. Soon I was tumbling and rolling on soft sand. Lots of the grains stuck to my wet clothes. My arm hurt but besides that I had had a soft landing.
I looked off up to where the dust was clearing. Billy was being strangled he also looked like he had a huge gash on his shoulder and back. It almost appeared to be a bite mark.
Turning to see the two girls fighting water with not much luck I was certain that Billy was going to be dead soon. He was trying his best against Finn but he was much stronger. Just as I was sure he had kicked the bucket a figure came out of the sand cloud. It tackled Finn and they soon rolled down the sand hill we were all perched on.
Soon Billy staggered to his feet. Blood was pouring out of him. He was leaving a red trail in the sand. He made his way to me. He grabbed my hand and started to drag me, "Mett you need to transform! We need you!" we were at the edge of the hill. I looked down to see Matt with the tip of a sword coming out of his fist. It spiked out on the opposite side of his thumb so he used it like a dagger.
He wasn't doing well. Finn was beating him and having fun with it. Billy yelled, "Matt needs you! You need to transform!" He grabbed me by the shoulders. "All I need you to do is transform! I can do the rest!"
I was scared this boy was determined to get me to do something. "I don't understand."
He calmed down, "Mettreah you need to remember. If you don't we could all be die." I was stunned. "Tabby, Sam, me and Matt! Matt needs you! He's your brother!" Billy pointed a finger down the hill to the now beat up boy. "He needs you Mettreah!"
I was so confused I was looking at Matt as hard as I could and then I caught sight of his eyes. They were filled with strong determination.
Matt!
It hit me, that was my brother, my clean freak, goofy, always took the joke to far brother! I looked at Billy, "We need to help him!"
He sighed, "Thank god!"
I transformed. Billy took me in hand and zoomed down to the two boys fighting. Matt didn't look in such great shape. When Finn saw me I was slightly afraid. He looked like he wanted to kill someone. Judging from the last twenty four hours he just might. Billy zoomed in while Matt had just attached Finn's thought. He had been forced to step back.
With his footing off Finn was open for a final blow. Billy came swooshing down on his board like a jouster with Mett pointed out. Mett felt the impact. It was a quick slice.
In seconds Finn was stabbed in the heart. He lay there on the sand choking and snarling at the three of them. He looked like he wanted to kill us all.
Mettreah transformed back into a girl. She stood with Billy still frightened by Finn. He was starting to feel the effects of blood lose but only a little.
Finn went to get up but Matt kicked him down with the tip of the sword coming out of his foot. Finn looked horrified. A mere hour ago he must have felt on top. His plan had been executed perfectly but now he was on the bottom and doomed to fail.
Matt barked out, "I don't care if you beg so don't bother!" Finn had Matt's blade at his throat. It didn't make much of a difference he was going to die anyway.
Finn started to laugh. It was loud very loud it made me confident of his insanity. It stopped and I looked to see Mett's up Finn's neck and straight into his skull. He was dead. His face stuck in a eerie position. His eye stayed focused.
A witch soul floated in his place. It was a victory yes but I didn't feel happy. I couldn't imagine how Billy felt. Yes I had like Finn and he had tried to use me but I had known him for less than a month. Billy had known him for years and become best friends. Tabby had once told me that they were like peanut butter and chocolate. They weren't typical friends but they were definitely amazing together.
He starred at the soul, he absolutely looked sad. I put my hand on his back and took him into a hug, "It's going to be fine." I could see coming down the hill Sam and Tabby. Tabby had a gash in her arm but they weren't in that bad of shape.
I let go of Billy and his soft smile was out of character but this was something I wouldn't complain about. Matt grabbed me from behind. He yelled while picking me up, "I'm never letting you go on dates ever again!"
I wasn't sure if he was joking so I started to freak, "What?" He swung me over his shoulder. "Let me down! Matt I don't care that you just saved me I'll still kick your ass!" I yelled while laughing. Things wouldn't ever be like they used to but maybe if we were lucky they could be better.
