ya, don't own, don't sue.
Thorn woke up knowing something was wrong, but she couldn't place it. It was like a feeling that was nagging her. It took her a few minutes to remember where she was/that's right, after Warren ditched, I went to the gazebo/ Thorn walked back home, and the feeling returned full force. When she walked into the house, she noticed that Kris kept her word, kind of. The house was spotless, unless you counted all the unconscious forms lying everywhere. /This is great/ she thought, picking her way, carefully, through the nameless bodies. She walked into the bathroom and froze. There was a lion in the bathtub. Thorn did a double take. There was definitely a lion in the bathtub. It opened its eyes and looked at her, then shut them and went back to sleep. Thorn quickly shut the door, and turned around.
"Great" she said.
Thorn headed up the stairs, fearful of what she would find. She opened her door and saw Shay leaning up against the door frame, asleep, someone leaning, more like falling, halfway out the window, Speed on the floor, at the foot of her bed, and Kris asleep on her bed.
"Someone's been sleeping in my bed" she mumbled, slamming the door. She heard a loud thud, a few groans, and some muttering. When Thorn opened the door, there was a slight change of scenery. No one was in the window, Shay was on the floor, holding her head, Speed was standing next to the bed, and Kris was sitting on her bed, like she owned it, glaring at Thorn
"And she's still there"
"Can I help you?" Kris asked, annoyed
"You know there's a lion in the bathtub" Thorn said
"So that's where he went!" Kris muttered and disappeared. Thorn raised an eyebrow and glared at the others.
"What?" Speed asked when he noticed her glare.
"That was sooo rude" Shay said, from the floor.
"So who is the 'he' in the bathroom?" Thorn asked, then noticed Lash climbing through the window.
"That was rude" Lash said, rubbing his head, Thorn glared at him, "Hay! Has anyone ever told you you have purple eyes?"
"you are an idiot, aren't you?"
"The lion's King" Speed said, sitting down on Thorns bed.
"Up, all of you" Thorn said, "Out, now" When no one listened she picked up the still disoriented Shay and threw her out. When she headed towards Speed, he rushed past her, Lash followed, not wanting to be alone. Thorn sighed and went about fixing her room. When she was done, she got the nagging feeling again. /I need to find a phone/ she thought, going down stairs. Thorn suddenly regretted the decision
"And you thought hiding in the Bathtub would solve our problems?" Kris shouted, "That's it, we're through!" One could hear Speeds' shout of triumph.
"I don't know how I got there, honest!. . . I'm sorry baby" Damien said, almost pleading
Kris eyed him suspiciously, but he looked pretty confused. She went to him and said, "Oh, it's okay, come here, I'll make you some breakfast"
"Kris!" Thorn shouted, Kris turned around and glared at her
"What do you want, twerp"
"Where's the phone?"
"The phone? A very good question" Kris said, looking around, "I don't know" Thorn sighed in frustration
"Baby, I'm Hungry" Damien complained
"Find it your self, Rosy, I'm making my man breakfast" Thorn growled at the hated nickname. One could hear Speeds cry of defeat in the background, as Kris said "we're back together, let's not let anything get between us again"
Thorn looked everywhere in the house, but the phones where missing
"What a weird thing to steal" Thorn muttered, "where the hell are my phones!" everybody turned to look at her, but no one answered.
"This is great" Thorn said
"I know, isn't it? Me and Damien, back together, everything's great" Kris said
"Where are the damn phones!" she shouted. Someone started laughing in the background
"Speed?" Kris said
"Yes!"
"Give Rosy back the phones" Speed sighed, but gave them to her anyway. Thorn ran up to her room and shut the door. Out of instinct, she dialed a number before she could think.
"Hello?" That was Wills voice /why did I call Will?/ Thorn thought
"Is Warren there?"
"Thorn? I thought you didn't like us"
"Go away, is Warren there?" She repeated
"Did you just tell me to go away? . . . No Warren's not here, It's my house, maybe you should try his?" He offered. Thorn hung up, the feeling had grown when she learned Warren was not at Wills house. /This isn't good/ she decided/These feelings I get are always right. Something's wrong/ She was sure. Something was very wrong. Thorn Looked around for her jacket. Once she found it, she pulled out Warren's cell number. Layla had written it down a few months ago, in case 'she wanted to get to know the competition' as she had put it. Thorn dialed it and waited.
"Hello?" She paused at the tired sounding voice on the other end.
"Warren?"
"What?"
"You need to come over here, or meet me at the park, it's really important"
"No"
"In all seriousness, you have to"
"Go away"
". . . No"
"I am really not in the mood Rosethorn" Warren growled.
Thorn was struck silent be the use of her full name
"Do I sound like I care?"
"That's the problem, you know. No one cares"
"I nee . . . what?"
"No one cares"
"That's it, I'm coming to see you, where are you?"
"No where, bye" And he hung up. Thorn sighed again ,grabbed her cell, and took off down the stairs only to be stopped my Shay and Kris
"Where do you think you're going Miss? After the party you through last night, you should be cleaning up" Kris said
"Buzz off" Thorn said forcefully
"Oh, I'm so scared, you don't have any powers, what are you going to do to us?" Shay said, she never saw it coming. Thorns fist connected with her stomach fast, and she when down. Before anyone could act Thorn was running out the door. "Just because I don't have powers, doesn't mean I'm weak!" she called over her shoulder and Took off down the street /If any of them decide to come after me, I'm toast/ Thorn thought. (AN: for the point of the story, they don't, even though Lash desperately wants too) When she reached Warrens house, she knew something was off. Actually, everything was off, and that's the point. All the lights were off. /Warren, where are you?/ she thought desperately, looking around.
AN: okay people, Thorn has a power, can you guess what?. . . and what's up with Warren? i guess you'll just have to wait and see.
