Chapter 10

Give Unto Me

Fear not the flame of my love's candle

Let it be the sun in your world of darkness

Give unto me all that frightens you

Ill have your nightmares for you

If you sleep soundly

Phoenix sprinted out of her last period, which was Math, to her dad's office. He was sitting there, filling out paperwork. Over what, she didn't know.

"Yes Phoenix?" Charles asked, gazing up at his daughter from the papers he was filling out. Something was bothering her, but it wasn't just one thing....many things had been on her mind lately.

"Dad.. Calysta's coming. I'm going to meet her in Colorado"

"No you aren't. Let Scott or Logan go"

"Dad no... I'm going. She needs her sister now more than she did before. Please let me go?"

"Fine....but take Colin with you"

"Alright....fine" Phoenix replied, exiting the office. She knew Kurt would be watching Study Hall, and that was where Colin was. She gracefully walked to Kurt and told him she needed Colin. He nodded, his blue tail flicking back and forth...back and forth. She stopped to stare at his tail, watching it go back and forth for a few moments. She shook her head turning away, damn that thing was hypnotic. She nodded to Colin, urging him to follow her. He stood, grabbing his things, following her out the door.

"Where are we going Phoenix?" he asked her, slightly irritated she'd drug him away from work....but also glad she'd come.

"Colorado...Colin. We need to talk"

"I know that.. I think I know what about too"

"The reason Ah ran from you....the other night...was....Ah have a terrible fear of dogs. Ah'm sorry!"

He smiled and nodded grabbing Asia's car keys and their jackets, handing hers to her. "Don't worry about it. Let's go get your sister."

-+-3 Days Later-+-

Calysta and Phoenix ran to each other, each one grabbing the other in a suffocating hug. They seemed to be having a competition on who was going to suffocate the other first. Colin stood back awkwardly, still trying to decide which one was his and which was her sister. When they drew apart and Calysta gathered her bags, was she introduced to Colin. They actually seemed to get along great, and Phoenix took her sisters bag and set it in the opened trunk that had been holding extra blankets and other things.

"Phoenix?" Calysta called to her sister.

"Yes?"

"We need to stop at someone's house real quick. Okay?"

"Sure thing"

A/N: Audery was admitted to the hospital a while ago.....but she wrote this one, Chapter 11, Chapter 12, and Chapter 13 so let's give her a big round of applause and crud like that eh? I mean they aren't that bad.
