Here it goes. soooo sorry about the long delay between chapters
*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Briar couldn't help but feel sad as he watched death run away. It seemed below her, Death had always stood tall in the face of every problem. Now here he was left in the wake of the one Problem she couldn't handle. Briar clasped the chain around his neck and laid back down on his bed. He slipped into sleep. That night he dreamed he was running through the mucky lair of his gang, around him were the bodies of his friends in the gang. Death was no were to be found.
* Morning*
" Briar!!!!" Rosethorn's voice broke threw the deep black curtain of sleep. He sat up bolt straight in bed and looked around the room. Niko, Lark, Frostpine, and of course Rosethorn were all congregated around his bed.
"Were is she Briar?" Asked Niko. His normally calm voice was nervous and rushed. Now that Briar looked at him, he could see the dark circles and bag that decorated Niko's face. Glancing around the room, Briar saw that the others all wore the same tense and nervous expression.
" She left last night. Why?" Briar answered more honestly then he had intended.
" Because she has.Extreme power. So much of it that it broke down Rosie and Lark's warding." Niko's voice was so tense that Briar was tempted to hit him with something to see if he would break. It was to serious right now for that, so he restrained himself.
" She said that this world is mine not hers. Then she ran off into the woods. Listen, if she doesn't want you to find her, you won't." Briar hadn't spoken to them like this since he was 'rescued' by Niko. It was important that they realize whom they were dealing with.
" We know, but we have to search for her she could be a grave danger to herself and anyone else who comes into contact with her." This time Frostpine spoke.
" Do you have anything that she has given you recently?" Lark asked in her loving motherly tone.
" Yes, I have this necklace she gave to me last night when she said goodbye, but it's the only material thing that she had ever given me." Looking down at the necklace, he gasped. Last night he hadn't gotten a good look at it, now that he had the sun to help him see he saw what it was. On the sword was written the word
'Mort.' This was a token given to the few people Death saw fit to protect, but in giving this to Briar, she had made a promise to return. In her own time, which was probably to long for Niko and the others to wait.
" She will return in her own time. By giving me this she is sworn to protect me." Briar unclasped the necklace and handed it to Niko. Briar though it was hilarious when he dropped it while cursing at it, the picked it but with his habit covering his hand. Everyone looked at him waiting for the reason as to his actions, still there was a long pause before he spoke.
" This had very powerful magic in it. So much and so powerful that I can't have direct contact with it." His voice sounded almost amaze, slowly the necklace made its way to each of the teachers who, briar was tickled to see, all had to hold it like Niko. Briar grabbed it from Rosethorn with his bare hand, he felt no pain, and in fact, some of the stiffness from sleeping wrong slipped away from him. Niko watched him as if intending to ask a question, instead he left and motioned the other teachers to follow. Briar was about to role over and go back to sleep when he heard a soft knock on the door.
"Come in!" Briar replied with slight anger, because he thought it was Niko come back to ask him another question.
Much to Briar's delight and surprise Sandry stepped inside.
