Chapter Five: Confessions Part Four
Tori ran out of the waterfall, tears streaming down her face. How could he do this to me? she thought miserably. She wasn't paying much attention to what she was doing and where she was going then slammed into Dustin and Shane, causing her to fall into the small body of water.
"Tori!" Dustin and Shane exclaimed, going into the water after their friend.
They reached her and lifted her out of the cold waters. She looked at them and bit her lower lip to keep the tears from falling.
"Tor, what's wrong?", Shane asked full of concern for his friend.
She shook her head, as she did more tears filled her eyes and she broke down sobbing. The two exchanged a look over the blonde's head and gently led her on dry land and over to a large rock. She leaned against it and looked down at the ground.
"Tori, what is it? You can tell us anything." Dustin said, his chocolate brown eyes full of concern for the Water Ninja.
"Its Blake," she managed to sob out.
"What'd he do?" Dustin asked with a sinking feeling at the pit of his stomach.
"He... he knew that I liked him and...and he starts seeing Cam!"
"WHAT!", Shane and Dustin exploded.
She nodded sadly, "you heard me, and I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it for myself."
The two teens got look of fury across their faces; no one hurt Tori and got away with it.
Tori looked between the two and sighed, "look guys I can handle this on my own."
Shane's eyes narrowed, "they have no right to hurt you like that." He paced back and forth in front of the other two Ninjas. "I can't believe Blake did that and with Cam to boot."
Tori's lower lip quivered and more tears swam in her eyes, she then Ninja Streaked off in a light blue streak.
Dustin crossed over to Shane and punched him in the arm. "Good going Shane, make her feel worse than she already does. She didn't deserve that and you know it."
Shane sighed, his shoulders slumping forward. "I know, you're right man, I'm just mad."
"Me too", the Earth Ninja murmured in agreement, looking the direction Tori retreated. "Me too."
The two then walked down to Ninja Ops; there they found Hunter and Blake tending to Cam.
Blood had flowed down Cam's mouth and chin, onto his training uniform.
"Dude, what'd she do to you?", Dustin asked, torn between finding out if his friend was Ok and cheering for what Tori had done.
"She broke by nose." To which this earned a small chuckle from Shane, which stopped abruptly by a glare from Hunter. Shane also could have sworn both Thunders growled at him.
Blake stepped forward, "look, I know you guys are pissed at me, but I can't control my feelings for Cam. Be mad at me, not Cam."
Shane's face turned stony. "Have you ever thought what'll happen if you three go out in public? You are sentencing yourselves to being shunned publicly! And Tori, if you go out when Tori is around that'll and insult to injury."
"What are you talking about Shane?", Hunter half growled.
"Your brother broke Tori's heart! None of you seem to give a shit!" Dustin exclaimed, out of his usual carefree, fun-loving nature.
"You know what? None of us really care about being "publicly shunned" Shane, as long as we're together is what matters."
Shane narrowed his eyes dangerously at Hunter.
Blake's head then bowed with guilt and shame. "I know, and I feel horrible about it. But I can't help who I love."
Cam's head snapped in Blake's direction, love had never been mentioned before. Sure they had made love many times on countless occasions, but the word "love" had never come up.
Dustin all but snarled angrily. "I hope you three are very happy together... not!" With those words he turned on his heel and stormed out of Ninja Ops with Shane on his heels.
The Thunders and Samurai chorused a sigh. They knew some people would disapprove of their relationship, but they never would have thought two of their closest friends would shut them out of their lives.
