Chapter 9
Shit! Shit! Shit!
Jenny silently repeated over and over again. She remembered her thoughts from moments before. She was right whatever was coming was big really big. But what the fuck was coming? That was the question. Leave it to the shadowmen to screw her over, when things had just started to go right-well almost right for her. She had Julian back, that was all that mattered. But now she had to worry about winning this stupid game as well. Damn Angel, this was all his fault, every last bit. But, Jenny through back mentally, you did follow him didn't you, right into the fire.
"Like a sheep to the slaughter, like a sheep to the slaughter." She shook her head in self disgust.
"Jenny, now is not the time to be talking to yourself." She heard from right next to her. Jenny turned to Julian and scowled. As far as she was concerned he was walking on a thin rope himself. She had come all this way to help free him and he showed his gratefulness by getting into a testosterone fight with Angel. She'd have though that Julian was more grown up than that. Jenny let out a grunt. Julian grown up, when cows fly and pigs eat with forks! She couldn't believe that she had actually said that. Julian grown up, what next Angel a saint. That was even more absurd. But Jenny wasn't the only one left out, she was far from the person she had been when Julian had died. In her own opinion she was no longer Jenny the saint, she wasn't as bad as Angel but give it a few years and she might be. Jenny scarcely noticed that Julian was talking to her, she could see his lips moving but she wasn't all that interested in what he was saying.
"Did you here me Jenny?" Julian said putting his face close to hers. Luminous blue eyes filled her vision.
"What?" She was really starting to loss patients with him, very quickly.
"I said, 'Did you here, me?'" He said snidely, throwing his arms up in the air.
"No."
"Well, if you had been listening you would have noticed that we have been waiting for that, " he made wild gestures with his arms looking for the right word. "that noise, to get here, for 3 minutes now. I don't think it's coming. I think that It was the shadowmen playing with us." Julian finished as leaned against a wall in the cave, a glint of smugness flashing in his electrifies eyes.
"What?!" Jenny said dumbfounded. "They were playing with us, but -" She stopped herself, she was about to ask why they would do such a thing but she knew why. Julian had done the same thing to her and her friends the last time they were here, played with them. The shadowmen probably thought that they had the whole thing under control and they were going to prolong the torture until they tired of it. Not this time though, this time they had Angel. The shadowmen couldn't do anything to him, after all he himself was one oof them and he had control over his own runstave. Jenny jumped once and pumped her fists in the air. Yeah, they had Angel, their was no way that they could loss now. No way in hell!
"What the hell are you doing?!" They said in identically nasty voices looking her way.
Jenny looked over towards Angel and grinned, "Because, dear Angel," she began ignoring the snide looks Julian was shooting her way. "With you their is no way we can loss, you see? You can just wiggle your nose, wave your finger or do whatever it is that you shadow guys do and get us out of here." Julian turned sharply throwing her a questioning glance, which Jenny returned with a slight shrug and turned her attention once again to Angel. "I mean you have control of your own runestave," she stated running of the reasons on her fingers. "I made you so you can't be held by their laws.-"
Angel interrupted her, as a his lips quirked into a grin, "That is where you are wrong my dear Jenny. It is true that I was created by you, albeit by accident, but I am still held to the laws of the shadow world. As soon as I stepped into this world I became held by their laws."
Jenny glanced at Julian for conformation and when he only nodded she felt her stomach drop out from under her. "Oh God we are fucked." She whispered to herself. She wished that Angel had told her this earlier.
"Angel," she said through clenched teeth. "Why the hell did you wait 'til now to tell me?"
The look he gave her told her everything she needed to know. He was fucking with her, pure and simple. But he wouldn't have been Angel without a little mind fuck now and then, would he? God, he was worse them Julian. At least he was head over heels for her. She shook her head and looked as him. "Okay genius, so what do we do now?"
"We do exactly what I planned for us to do. We play the game. It was you that got all gung-ho and all. I never said that I could pouf us out of here. You thought that up all by yourself," he finished crossing his hands and placing them behind his back. Angel began walking down, deeper into the cave. "Well, I guess we can get moving if their are no objections. Speak now or forever hold your peace." She received silence. "Well, I guess that means that your ready to go, kiddies. Come on, the shadow express is leaving, cho-cho."
Behind his Jenny and Julian shared a look, and both shrugged. Hey it was better that staying where they were waiting forever for the noise to catch up with them...if it ever did. Jenny walked directly behind Angel, while Julian pulled up the rear. She rolled her eyes heavenward when Angel began to whistle to himself. "Are you always this infuriating or do you work really hard at it." She heard Julian say from behind her.
"No, it just comes naturally to me." She watched as he cocked his head to the side as if in thought. "But I guess that's about as natural as you can get when your a shadowman. Oh well, I just gotta be me!" He said in a singsong voice causing Jenny to roll her eyes again and Julian to snort in disgust. If she hadn't been in this situation she might have thought Angels bantering, cute, even funny but now it was just disturbing as hell. Maybe he'll stop when this game actually gets started, whenever that was going to be. Jenny was a fighter when it came to the shadowmen but waiting was a totally different thing all together, and it was driving her mad.

Will Angel's insesent bantering make Jenny go mad? Why didn't Angel tell Jenny about the shadow laws before? While I ever stop talking to myself? All this and more in the next chapter of Desires Revealed...
