I promise I'll finish soon. I know this is taking ages but I will finish it. I think about 3 more chapters and I'll be done. But I won't post any of them until they are all done so you will have to wait for a while. Anyway, enough of me, more of sweep. By the way, this story is in Morgan's POV. Oh, and dot say that Morgan is out of character. Again, wouldn't work if she was in it. So don't review saying that she is out of character.
I was back in the real world and I didn't know how long I would be here for. There was a tugging on my chest but I ignored it. I wanted to stay Hunter's arms forever but I had things to do. I pushed myself off Hunter and stood up. Hunter gave me a surprised look. I walked downstairs to see everyone else sitting in silence until I come down. They looked like Hunter did when I stood up but I had to do some stuff.
"Right, the last time I went in the monster attacked me again. I think when I am having high emotional times the demon appears and confronts me. That last time it said..."
"Morgan, you shouldn't even be up," interrupted the healer.
"I do know this." I answered him.
"Morgan, you have a serious condition. When you passed out last time..."
"My blood was boiling and my organs were liquefying. I know. Anyway..."
"How do you know?" asked Alyce.
"When I passed out, I didn't go into the other world at first. I was still here but no one could see or feel me. I was here when you told everyone about my condition and you were arguing over if I would survive or not. And if you think I won't, you are very much mistaken. I am stronger than the stories say. You don't know what I can do and the stories aren't ending here." Everyone looked shocked by what I said. I just stood there and looked at them all. Hunter and Sky didn't actually look shocked.
"Let me see the athame." I said to Alyce. She got up and went to the kitchen. She came back with the athame. I sat down to look at it. As soon as I held my leg hurt like it did when it was just pushed into it. I pulled up my jeans legs to see the wound. I almost screamed when I saw it. Black vein coming out a wound and bumps running along it. I turned back to look at the athame. Runes and signals surrounded it. It still had blood on it from my wound. It made me sick to look at it.
"I know what to do." I told everyone. I walked into the circle room and drew a circle. Hunter followed me.
"Morgan, what are you doing?" he asked me.
"I'm doing what needs to be done."
"Which is what exactly? You are too weak to do a spell by yourself"
"I'll be fine Hunter. I promise." I touched his cheek and he looked down.
"You can't promise something like that and you know. Morgan, I'm not losing you. I love you so much and I don't know what I would do without you. Please let someone else do this."
"You know I love you more than anything in this world, but I have to do this. I'm the one with the connection to the athame. Hunter, I won't die. It's a simple spell."
"In
theory it's a simple spell. Morgan, all this time you've been
out, I've been wondering if you would ever wake up. I wondered if I
would ever kiss you again. Talk to you. Now you're doing something
that could kill you in this state. I'm not letting you do
this."
"Shh." I pushed my finger on his lips then kissed
them with mine. He had so soft lips. I couldn't believe that I ever
thought I would choose the other world. I pulled back and smiled at
him. "I'm here and I'm staying here. I won't let anything come
between us anymore. I am not dying. I will fight just to be with
you." I said to him. He laughed.
"It's funny. We've been through so much and it's still going on." I nodded. "I wish they would give us a break."
"Ye would be nice. Could spend days doing nothing." He put his arms around me. My arms went around his neck and we stood there in silence, just looking into each others eyes. It felt so right. But I knew I had to do this or I would never see Hunter, my Hunter again. "Hunter, I need to do this." I whispered in his ear. My hands slip down his arms and into his hands. He squeezed them and walked out the room.
"I love you Morgan," was the last thing I heard him say. I felt a tear leaking from my eye. What if the spell didn't work and I did die? I was just trying to be strong for Hunter but now I could actually be walking into death. I had to take the chance. For Hunter.
