Chapter 11
Zoey POV.
I woke up because I heard a loud banging noise. I looked to my left and there was an alarm clock with o monkey banging symbolize together. I ran and turned it off. Selene hadn't gotten up yet because she was a deep sleeper sometimes. I looked over at her and her warrior tattoos were glowing in the moon light. They were shining but dull and ruff all at the same time. I walked into our fully clothed closet and grabbed some sweats. I ran in to take a shower. I stayed in the shower for a long time because I loved the feel of the hot water. It was like the element of fire and water combining to make one magic thing. When I got out of the shower I threw on me sweats and walked back into the room I saw Selene looking at her phone. "Hey." I jumped onto her bed so I was beside her.
"Hi." She said not looking up at me.
"Whats wrong?" I asked but instead of answering me she handed me her phone. There was a whole conversation between her and Jordan last night. "Whoa!" I said because he called her love. I was right they were soul mates.
"Were not soul mates Z." Selene said as if she were reading all my thoughts.
"I didn't say that." I pointed out that she may just be jumping the gun.
"You thought it." She looked up at me. I knew that she was reading my mind.
"Well then how would you explain this?" I asked her.
"I don't know and I don't want to." She grabbed her stuff. "I am going to shower." She walked off into the bathroom door. When she was in the shower with the water running there was a knock at the door. I got up and went to answer it. It was Kalona.
"Hello Zoey may I come in?" I stepped aside so that he could enter. "Where is Selene?" He asked. He had a little sadness in his eyes like she had left in the middle of the night.
"Shower." I said and his expression got brighter. If she wasn't like his daughter I would of thought that he might be in love with her.
"Okay." He sat on Selene's bed and I went to sit on mine. "I am here to talk about the fight that is happening a little later on."
"But Selene isn't here." I said.
"It does not concern her." I nodded. "I have you trained with the elements?" I nodded again. "Can you do anything else?"
"Yeah I have a gift for speed and I can shoot arrows from a bow." He nodded because this pleased him.
"That is good." He took a deep breath. "Are you prepared to fight Zoey?" He looked utterly serious.
"Yes I am ready to fight." You I added in my mind.
"Okay." He looked up into my eyes. "Once this is done everything will be better for you, Selene and I. We will rule this land forever." He said and stood up. Selene walked out from the bathroom in sweats just like mine except hers were lime green which were way cool and mine were navy blue. "Hello my daughter." Kalona walked up and kissed Selene on the head. I saw her shiver under his touch.
"Hello." She said. "When do we leave?" She asked him.
"In ten minutes." Kalona said and walked out of the room.
"Are you ready for this Z?" Selene said turning to me.
"As ready as one person can get S." I got up. "Were in this together." I said.
"Together." Selene echoed and we did our handshake which made us both laugh.
"Its time." We heard Kalona yell from the bottom of the stairs. We raced down. "We are going to battle now." He handed Selene and I a bow and a set of arrows. "Lets go." The three of us walked out the door. Not a single Raven Mocker was in sight.
Stark POV.
After I took my shower I felt a wave of Zoey's emotions. There were nerves, worrying, loving for Selene I guessed and anxiousness. When I went into the living room Jordan was sitting on the couch. "Hey." He said when I entered.
"Hi." I said in a dull voice. "Are you ready because we have to leave soon." I asked him.
"Yeah. There's breakfast over there if you want it." He told me.
"Oh that's great." I walked over to the table and grabbed bacon and eggs. "Have you seen Erik?" I said between mouthfuls.
"Um. I think he is still asleep. I mean I don't blame him he looked awful yesterday." Jordan said. He was right Erik had just lost the girl of his dreams or so he thought. I finished eating and walked into Erik's room. He was asleep with a picture of him kissing my sister. Even though no guy wants anyone to go out with there sister I had to admit they looked so happy and nice together. It was like they were just living in the moment and nothing could stop them. They were both glowing that glow that Selene always got when she was with Erik or talked about it. I also had to admit Erik wasn't an ass hat or a total possessive jerk when he was with Selene. "ERIK!" I yelled and he jumped out of the bed.
"What?" He looked around confused.
"Get dressed we have to leave in five minutes to go and fight Kalona." I said.
"Okay." He grabbed his clothes. "A little privacy?" He said waving his hand in a shooing motion.
"Like I need to see that." I said and left the room. I went and waited by the elevator with Jordan. Erik came out one minute later fully dresses and everything. "Lets go everyone is waiting in the courtyard for this to start." I said and we all got into the elevator. When we got down stairs the whole gang even Stevie Rae and Dallas, Darius were there. I was even surprised that Erce was there as well. "Erce what are you doing here?" I asked her.
"I am here to see Selene stand by her father." She said the word father with disgust. "I am here because I believe in good and I think that if the good spirits are here we will win." She said. I nodded.
"Line formation." I said and everyone was paired up with someone. We were standing in a line two people then a little space in between the another two people and it went like this all the way down through the group. I saw Zoey, Selene and Kalona walk to where we were standing. They were walking slowly but with such grace and no effort. They all looked like gods and goddesses. I was mesmerized by that. "There coming." I said down the line. They stopped ten feet in front of us. I knew it was enough space for them to talk with us, attack us and or kill us even.
"Hello." Kalona said stepping forward to greet us like we were all friends. "We mean you no harm but you are in our way." He said.
"Yeah right. You mean us all the harm you can dish out." Aphrodite said in her bitchy voice.
"He said we mean you no harm if you are not in our way." Selene stepped in front of Kalona and walked over to Aphrodite. "Are you in our way?" She asked her. I saw Aphrodite shaking a lot because Selene's marks were glowing and her expression said she was in warrior mode. When Aphrodite didn't say anything Selene said. "Good that's what I thought." She walked back over to Kalona. I saw her exchange a look with Zoey and I knew this was all apart of the plan.
"Now everyone move." Zoey said in a loud and authoritative figure voice.
"No." I said to her across the distance. "I don't think we want to move."
"Then we will move you." Zoey said back to me.
"Zoey, Selene please calm down. We did not come here to fight we came to get help in our quest but if they would like a fight then we can give them one." Kalona said looking over at Selene. Selene nodded and sprung into the air. She was floating in air with fire blowing in the air around her it was like a fire tornado. I saw the look Kalona gave Zoey now. Zoey sprung up into the air and a vine from the earth caught her with water swirling around her and the vine. "Now will you move?" Kalona asked us.
"No." Erik said from beside me.
"Very well." Z and S both did a back flip out of there positions and were standing at Kalona's side again. "Then we fight." Kalona said.
Hope you like it.
Can you wait for the battle? Do you think someone will die?
Love,
Lat.!
