Chapter 5
Missing
Oh Goddess, I don't know what to do. Miora is gone, and we don't know where. Sky and I checked the room for evidence of anything, and we found nothing. Morgan had just finished having a vision when Miora screamed, which of course put Morgan into a state a delirium.
"Hunter," Alwyn began. I looked up to my sister and nodded for her to continue. "I've contacted the council; they should be here in the morning."
I nodded, and took Morgan, who was now shaking in fear into my arms. She started into racking sobs. I mumbled a quick calming spell into her ear, and she suddenly stopped crying. I quickly carried her up to the room we were staying in, and set her down on the end of the bed.
"Hunter…" she began quietly. I looked up to see her beautiful hazel eyes watching me as I retrieved some clothes from her suitcase.
"Shh, love, it's going to be ok, the council will be here in the morning, and I'll be phoning my Da, he should be here too. There is dark magick involved, and we could use his expertise."
I sat down on the bed beside Morgan, and gathered her in my arms. I could feel the shaky breaths she was taking in, I began to stroke her hair down her back, in any attempt to calm her.
"Where do you think she is?" Morgan half whispered, her eyes closed. I could see she was almost falling asleep.
"I don't know, but she'll be alright Morgan, we'll find her. We've always solved these things together."
"Alright..." she trailed off. "Hunter?"
"Yes?"
"I love you."
"I love you too Morgan."
I quietly smiled at this, as I felt Morgan drift into a peaceful sleep. I gently laid her down on the bed, and pulled the duvet over her and kissed her forehead. I closed the door behind me as I left the room, hoping that she would sleep peacefully.
As I came back down the stairs I was greeted by Alwyn, "how is she?"
"She'll be fine, she's asleep right now. But tomorrow morning is going to be bad. Oh, and can I use your phone, I need to phone Da."
Alwyn nodded to the cordless phone on the table in the dining room. I picked it up and dialed Da's number.
Luckily enough he was home, I explained the situation.
"Well, Giomanach, this is quite the situation." He said, probably thinking about what had happened, "and I'll be there right away, I'll catch the next plane to Dublin."
"Alright, thanks Da."
I hung up the phone and turned to see Sky leaning against the doorway. She pulled out a chair at the table and sat down, I did the same.
"Morgan is going to be a right mess in the morning Athar."
She put her hand on mine, "I know, this isn't going to be easy, but we can do it, we always manage to work things out."
"I know," I replied softly, shaking my head, "I just can't believe she's gone either, I mean we came here to protect ourselves from whatever danger there was in Widow's Vale."
She nodded understandingly, stood and left the room. I was left to think about what was to come.
