Chapter 17
Heaven's A Lie
A/N-This is the final chapter. And yes we are giving you a sequel. But, since the three of us are going away to college and won't have time, Lily's cousin Marah is taking over. She's a great authoress and we sincerely hope that you give her as much respect as you've given us. We've written the first chapter of the sequel, so I hope you enjoy it as much as we did writing it. Peace out.
Love always,
Kirsty
Audery
Lily
Oh no, here it is again
I need to know
Why did I choose to betray you
Somethin' wrong
With all the plans of my life
I never realized that you've been here
Dolefully desired
Destiny of a lie
Set me free
Your heaven's a lie
Set me free
With your love

Phoenix stepped out onto the fresh grass, gazing around warily. Her long white hair hung limply around her face, ice blue eyes glittering dangerously. Walking out farther, towards the middle of the lawn, she heart the grass rustling behind her. Slasher, or Evinha Grange, stood before her. Her nails had grown out to be about ten inches long.
"Is that it?" Phoenix smirked, raising her eyebrows.
"It's enough, Phoenix." she said venomously, lunging towards the girl. Grabbing her wrists, Phoenix was barely able to frost her skin before being overpowered and brutally thrown to the ground. True, she didn't have much brute strength and wasn't fast at all. Growling, Slasher attacked. She straddled the girl's waist, raking her "claws" across her shoulders. Ignoring the searing pain in her shoulders, Phoenix grabbed her neck, tightening her grip as her cold hands worked their magic. Eyes growing wide, she plunged her nails into the weaker girl's stomach, making the X-Man....woman release her in pain. She'd punctured...something, Phoenix couldn't tell what. Placing her hands over the holes from which the blood was gushing, she gazed up at her opponent. Grabbing the girl's hair, Eve pulled her up. Tilting her face towards Xavier's daughter, she smirked.
"Oh, you poor thing...do you want me to stop?" Eve asked sadistically, gripping her neck. Amy ran out of the school, sporting a bloody nose and a few burns.
"Let's go, Eve." she said, the rest of The Brotherhood following, including James. Dropping her victim, she wiped the blood off her nails and shrunk them, muttering. A tall woman stepped up behind the vicious girl, resting a hand on her shoulder. Her long blonde hair hung in a loose braid down her back, with dark, venomous eyes. Nodding, Eve and the rest of her family followed the woman.

Colin stepped out onto the steps not ten minutes later and scanned the area. Spotting Phoenix, he ran to her, lifting her into his lap. She stirred slightly, opening her bleary eyes. Her studied her face, gently rubbing her cheek with the back of his hand.
"Colin..."
"Hush. We'll discuss it later, you need help." Colin whispered. She nodded weakly, snuggling up to his chest. Standing, he saw Bobby at the door and sprinted to him.
"What-"
"Take her, get her to Emma. I trust you, so take good care of her." the "werewolf" growled, his eyes turning their sickly, disgusting yellow color. Bobby nodded and took the girl from his friend's grasp. Phoenix made a grab for Colin's shirt, which he caught and took a hold of her hand. Gently placing a kiss on her cold fingertips, he bent down close to her ear.
"Ya promise you'll come back?" she whispered tearfully, starting to sniffle. He chuckled softly shaking his head.
"Of course. You know I will."
"Ah love you." she whispered softly. He nodded and kissed her cheek, and, feeling his limbs transforming, he stalked off outside and into the night. His self appointed mission was to find out who did that to his southern belle...and kill 'em.
A/N-Let it be known through all the land.....we cannot write fight scenes. The four of us are terrible...yes, we had to drag my fourteen year old cousin into helping us with a fight scene. My goddess.....yeesh. That's bad.....hehe.
