[A/n chap 13 here we go! Please read and review!]
"Hunter what can you possibly do or where can you possibly go to find her... I've tried everything, I've been everywhere, she's really covered her tracks" Sky said the moment she walked into the house and saw me pulling me coat on and slipping into my shoes.
I loved up at my cousin, "I don't think she's runaway, there's something more to it, I can feel it, no, more than that, I know it"
Sky looked at me in disbelief, "What are you talking about Hunter?"
"As soon as I know myself I'll fill you in" I barged passed her and headed straight for my car, followed closely by Sky.
"I'm coming with you!" she announced
"Fine, I might need all the help I can get,"
We both got into the car and drove around, "So what's the point of this? I've already drove round," Sky said
"I've got my senses out, maybe I can pick up something because Morgan and I have a connection of some kind," she shrugged, "Perhaps"
I halted outside Morgan's house, I couldn't sense her, but she could be strong enough to completely block her from us, "I'm going to see if she's in" I started to unfasten my belt.
"Hunter don't be ridiculous," Sky said,
"What why?"
"Well for starters if you knock on that door and Morgan isn't in then your going to get her parents answering the door and its going on for 2am, how are you going to explain yourself? And then when her parents realise Morgan's not there, you're going to worry them and get them involved in something they shouldn't be,"
Sky had a good point, I re-fastened my belt, "You're right, I'm sorry, I'm freaked out and really worried about her, I've gone to irrational thinking,"
She rubbed my shoulder, "I know,"
"I'll never forgive myself if something happened to her," my head begun to spin with all the dreadful possibilities.
"Err Hunter..."
I looked at Sky with a questioning look, "I've just realised that no one inside is actually asleep, we've just been worried about Morgan, they're all awake,"
Again I realised Sky was right.
Just then the front door of the house opened, Mr and Mrs Rowlands came out in their pyjama's and headed for their car, and Mary K was stood in the doorway, I got out the car.
"Oh Hunter, thank God you're here," Mrs Rowlands came over to me, Mr Rowlands gave me an odd look, "Who's this?" he asked
"Hunter Niall," I held out my hand but he didn't accept it, "What are you doing here at this hour?" he questioned, Mrs Rowlands glared at her husband, "This is Morgan's friend, Cal's half brother, obviously he must of heard Morgan was missing and came to help," she told him, "Did Bree call you?" I nodded. Thank the goddess she jumps to conclusions that would have been a hard one to explain.
"What happened?" I asked them,
"We don't know she just never came home, none of her friends know where she is we've called Bree and she called them all up but she came up with nothing,"
"There's a rumour going around school," Mary K finally spoke up, "Apparently Cal skipped town" my eyes widened and they all turned to face me.
"He's only my half brother," I replied, "We're not exactly close, but its true, he left Morgan, hurt her feelings a left with his Mother back to San Francisco. I'm a good friend of Morgan's and I hate to see her hurt, that must be what it is, upset that he left town, My cousin is in my car, we'll find her and bring her back to you Mrs Rowlands, don't worry too much we'll have her back"
"But, Cal and Morgan spilt up a while ago," Morgan's mom said, "I remember she stayed out all night at her friend Tamara's because she was too upset to come home,"
My eyes widened, Think quick Niall, "Yeah, but what she obviously didn't mention was that they got back together again the next day, you see it was just some spat they had and worked it out, but then Cal being the heartless person he is just left town without saying so much as a goodbye"
Mrs Rowlands smiled at me, "You are such a good man Hunter, I thank you a lot for looking out for my daughter as much as you have, she deserves a good guy like you, bring her back safely to us please"
I nodded, "Don't worry yourself over nothing, I'll have her back to you soon" I hope I added silently.
I climbed into my car and drove off, "You handled that well," Sky commented.
Suddenly I braked my car hard as I could as I lost consciousness for a second...
[SELENE: She is the last of Belwicket, a Riordan no-less, Maeve's child...as well as Ciaran's...]
I re-gained myself, and remembered our scrying and the intercepted vision about Ciaran, he's Morgan's father, he's working with Selene and they've got her!
