Chapter Six:
Finding Cal
"Alright," Hunter sighed. He got up and began walking to the door.
"Wait!" I jumped up. "You meant now?"
"Well, yes."
And before I knew it, we were in Hunter's car driving. To where, I had no clue. The journey seemed long, and I thought about every possibility. Focusing on the ones where I most likely lost. What if she was expecting us? She could be setting up her whole home already with some strong spells I've never heard of. There could traps all over the roads. Why am I doing this?...
"Don't be nervous," Hunter said, losing my train of thought. I immediately felt better. What would I do without him?
When he pulled into a driveway and parked the car, I wanted to run away. My head started hurting and I felt sick. There were spells everywhere and I don't think they were all for good. My legs followed Hunter up to the front and waiting as he knocked. I grew more anxious with every second. My feet tapped the ground, then I was pacing around and I cast my senses out and felt nothing. Medeva must have spelled her house like I thought.
But a movie of images blurred so fast in my head that I couldn't see any of the pictures. They were all dark and snapped faster until they were cut off and went dead the same second the door opened to reveal...
Cal.
Was I just imaging him? I looked over to Hunter. His jaw was clenched and I could tell he was holding back his anger. He wanted to punch Cal. I knew it, but what would happen next was unpredictable.
Cal looked ragged and old. He was paler and thin and when I looked into his eyes, there was nothing. It was like he had no soul. He put out a shaky hand to us and hit something. An unseeable force that shocked him like electricity and he immediately retreated his hand and stepped back. Hunter put his hand in the same spot and nothing happened. He waved it back in forth and still, nothing.
Hunter stepped into the house and I followed. Cal was straight ahead of us, but sat down on the floor and held his legs to his chest. What was wrong with him? Hunter and I cautiously cornered him, but it didn't look like he was going anywhere. I didn't think it was possible for him to go anywhere. He rocked backed and forced and began to mumble a chant.
"Don't talk about Morgan, don't talk about Morgan... Morgan bad... no... don't talk about Morgan...Medeva doesn't want to hear... no..."
Cal kept rocking back and forth and babbling. I was scared.
"I think we should do a táth meánma with him," Hunter surprised me by saying. When I looked at him, he gave a better explanation.
"We're not going to get any information from him otherwise. He's just a blubbering mess. The only way we can help him and us is to do the spell."
I sighed. I couldn't even think about this.
"No, no, no... Morgan? No talk about Morgan... Medeva? No..."
Cal needed help. What had Medeva done to him? I nodded to Hunter. We had to do this.
Hunter took one of my hands and each of us put our other hand on Cal.
I braced myself for whatever horror may hit me next.
