A/N: Yes I know it has been months since I last posted the chapter and believe me my castle door has been smoking the whole time. But at least I have a good excuse. I started college this fall and it has kept me busy about 24/7 but o well. I am back and on Winter break. And I know you are all going to hate me. Maybe I should start hosing down the roof so it won't catch on fire so easily. Anyway on with the show or should I say story.
Disclaimer: I don't own sweep I am just a bookworm trying her hand at writing.
From last chapter- *Scoure beatha dair* she messaged. She was losing control from her pain and suffering. She isn't thinking clearly.
Chapter 13- Floodgate
With that she closed her eyes again. It hadn't even felt like her, the eyes where hers but strangely different. Her breathing became more and more strained, as if it took all her strength to draw in a breath. Without thinking I placed my hands over her chest, but stopped myself before I did anything. My Magick would just hurt her more.
My love drew in a shallow breath and let it out. At that second I felt as it I had been torn in half. My heart was ripped from my chest. She was gone. My murin Beatha Dan was dead, because of me. A floodgate broke. I couldn't control myself any longer.
"NO!!!" I screamed through my tears.
"No, you can't leave me. Come back. This isn't how it is supposed to be. You know that." I took her by the shoulders and vigorously shook her as if it would bring the life back in to her.
Calling on all the power I could around me, still knowing it was useless I tried every healing spell and chant I knew. Da walked in cautiously, and trying place to sympathetic hand on my shoulder. I violently shrugged it off and spun around. My tear stained face was contorted sad and angrily.
"You did this!" I growled at him.
"I know." His head hung low.
"Don't even try to get sympathy old man."
"I'm not. It's just… I know how you feel though. It hurts."
"There is no way in hell that you know how I feel. Your father didn't kill your love before you could even start a life. You at least got to say good-bye to Ma. I didn't get to say good-bye to Morgan. Her last words were nothing but jumbles. Your selfishness and weakness caused this."
"I'm sor-"
"Don't even try to say you are sorry. Don't waste your breath. As far as I am concerned I have no father. He is dead as my mother." I knew my words cut like an athame. I laid myself over Morgan, holding her.
I hadn't noticed through my reality that Kennet had come in to the room.
"Come on Hunter. Go Home. I will take care of all of this.
Ring Ring Ring Ring the phone rang. We all stopped dead in our tracks. Finally after what seemed like forever the answering machine picked up. Morgan's voice floated down the hall from the machine. "Sorry we are unable to answer the phone right now. Please leave a message and we will get back to you." :BEEP: "Hey honey pick up it is mom. Morgan answer the phone. O well you must be asleep still. I you are feeling better. The roads are really icy out and it looks like it is gonna so so we are going to stay here tonight. So don't worry. See you tomorrow. Love you Honey."
"Oh Goddess her parents!" I yelled.
"What is it?" Kennet asked in a worry shaken voice.
"What are we going to tell them. How am I going to explain?"
"Don't worry Hunter I will take care of it all. Now go home and get some rest. I think you need some time alone. I'm sorry Hunter but what were he last words? It could be important to the council, although I know how you feel about the council."
"Fine doesn't matter now any how I guess. Here last words where Scoure Beatha dair." I barely chocked out into Morgan's lifeless chest.
"Ok I will make sure to include it in my report." He said seekerly.
How could he be so cold and concerned with the council at a time like this. How could he ask me that? I almost regretted telling him. But it make no difference to me now. I really had nothing to live for. Suddenly a hand on my shoulder ripped me away from thoughts.
"Hunter, we'll take care of everything."
Kennet had to practically tear me away from Morgan, but reluctantly I finally left her side.
"Hunt-" Da started.
"Don't, I don't want to talk to you." I spit out coldly as I closed the door behind me and made my way down the stairs. I go out of that house as fast as I could. I couldn't stand it inside. How will I explain this to her parents? With that I put the thought out of my head and concentrated on the ice-cold steering wheel. Over and over I slammed my fists in to the dash till they were red and raw. No matter though I couldn't feel them. I couldn't feel anything and I never would again. The world has lost all it's color, all it's meaning. But this is how it is going to be, for the rest of my miserable life.
Finally I got my self together enough to go home. I started up the engine and headed back. Finally made it home. I dragged myself in to the house and collapsed on the couch, and stared at the fire that had been left blazing in the fireplace.
"Damn Kul. Goddess may he get his." I screamed out loud. Tears once again started to roll down my cheeks. The fury inside me began burn as the flames. Why should I leave this up to the council. With that I ran in to the circle room grabbed my leather satchel of tools. As I opened the front door to leave I felt more then saw (since I was blinded by my rage) Kennet and Da pull up.
"Hunter where are you going." Kennet demanded sharply, grabbing my arm and holding me from getting in my car.
"It doesn't concern you, you pawn of the council seeker. I am tired of waiting on the councils schedule." I tore my arm free of Kennet's grip and went straight to my car. The engine started up with a roar as if it was expressing my fury. I put the gas to the floor.
"HUNTER!" I barely heard Kennet and Da cry out as I raced off.
