AH! Okay... sooooo... I haven't posted FOREVER! ... again. I blame the fact the I'm a lazy procrastinator! I'm hoping to start posting more here soon! And, well, yesterday I got my wisdom teeth taken out and my creativity went 'Smell ya later!' and left! It just took a small suitcase with it so it should be back soon! Oh! Happy The-World-Didn't-End-Day! (Duh!) And Happy Holidays! Hmmm... I've been considering writing a Christmas story but have no idea what to do it about... Plot bunnies anyone? Mine have been absent of late... which is weird... I think my imagination took them when it went on vacation! The kind of cuts off abruptly at the end but enjoy!

Day One: Section One

He woke up a few hours, or what he hoped was only a few hours, later with a groan and a splitting headache. So the spell was a little strong and he was pretty sure he need some practice. Fainting in the middle of battle wouldn't work very well after all and he wanted to kick some serious Demon ass. First though, some food and some medicine would be nice. He struggled to his feet and stumbled down stairs. He barely made it to the living room before he crumpled to the couch exhausted. He had fainted before due to spells but it had never felt like this, something seemed wrong. He rose slowly and hesitantly to his feet. He decided he was steady enough to make it to the kitchen; his headache had already turned into a dull pounding in the back of his head but it would defiantly come back.

Benny headed for the kitchen and he swore with each step he took the headache grew worse. By the time he reached the next room dull pounding had picked up to a frantic beat. Hot knives felt like they were being stabbed into his skull, twisted, pulled back out and then repeated. The pain in his head continued to rise as black dots danced across his vision and he felt himself swaying. He slid to the ground cradling his head with his hands and his back against the counter. The pain kept rising along with the pace of the pounding. Suddenly the pain reached a peak, and if someone were to walk through the door at that moment they would see a tall, lanky boy slumped on the floor unconscious.

Ethan was relaxed. For the first time in two weeks he wasn't freaking out, not even mentally. He was sitting in the living room with his family. Everything was calm, perfectly normal actually. So normal in fact, he could forget about Demons, Vampires, ghosts, and Werewolves. He was even able to forget that he was a Seer and that Benny was a spell-master, even if it was only for a while. Then of course that is when the tingling in the back of his mind started, right when everything was quiet and he was relaxing. But it was just a tingle, sure it was that tingle you get when something's seriously wrong and all, and he could ignore it. He was just being paranoid; there probably wasn't even really a tingle at all. He would just put it off as his imagination or something.

That's when the pain hit and he let out a sharp gasp causing his parents to frown in confusion and worry. It didn't last; it was there for a split second before vanishing but in that brief moment he had almost blacked out. As he regained his bearings he saw questioning and worried looks. Sadly, the results the pain had caused wouldn't be as brief as it had been. Apparently the fact that something had been wrong with him, seriously it was for like two seconds, was obvious enough it prompted his mother into asking if he was all right.

"I'm fine," he said maybe a little too quickly. "Headache, that's all. I'm just going to go lay down." He made his escape up the stairs and to his room before he could be questioned any further. He knew it wasn't a headache. You didn't get an awful headache for all of two seconds; it just didn't work that way. Could it be possible that since he and Benny could hear each other talk that if one of them experienced great enough pain the other could feel it too? It was plausible, he decided. He wasn't sure why he hadn't realized it before. But why would, Benny be feeling pain like that, maybe the Demons had shown up. Ethan shot to his feet at the thought and grabbed his coat quickly putting it on.

He thundered down the stairs and was out the front door without more than a shout of "I'm going to Benny's!" over his shoulder. His family sat there stunned staring at the door until Jane piped up.

"When are those two going to admit they're in love?" she asked dramatically, flopping back on the couch. Her parents stared at her for a moment before glancing at the door again.

"It's true," Ross (1) sighed leaning back and shaking his head much to his wife's amusement.

Ethan, oblivious to the conversation happening back at his house about his and Benny's nonexistent love life with each other, was at Benny's front door. He knocked a few times before panic finally began to set in to its fullest and he quickly lifted up the pot of flowers next to the door and removed the spare key from underneath it. When he opened the door he gasped lightly and rushed over to his unconscious friend.

"Benny," he said his hands going to check for a pulse instantly. Relief rushed through him has he felt the steady beating of a heart. "Hey Benny, can you hear me? Wake up?" The taller teen let out a soft groan and his eyes fluttered open.

"Hey E," he half whispered his voice rough. "W-what's up?" Ethan stared at his friend for a moment before scowling

"What's up?! Really? I come to your house to find you unconscious and all you say is 'What's up?'" Ethan hissed angrily. Benny gave his friend a tired yet sheepish smile accompanied by a shrug.

"What am I suppose to say?" the Spell-Master asked. "'Hey E, good to see you. I just totally collapsed and passed out I don't know how long ago but I'm fine now!' Yeah, I think 'What's up?' was the better option." The Seer sighed and shifted so he was sitting next to Benny.

"I felt something was wrong," he muttered quietly. "I felt it Benny."

"You mean?" the taller teen asked tapping his head. Ethan nodded with a gulp.

(1) - Totally looked up Ethan's parent's names right before typing that!
