Chapter 5
"Whoa!" Logan exclaimed as he dodged the first punch thrown by Taylor. He was surprised, however, when Taylor punched his stomach. He grunted and recovered quickly. He fell to the floor to do a sweep kick, but he was surprised yet again when she jumped over his leg.
"Ha!" she laughed in triumph. She was so busy gloating that she didn't notice Logan do another sweep kick. It caught her around the ankles and she fell face forward onto the floor. At the last moment, however, instincts kicked in and she put her hands out in front of her and caught herself. She turned her head and glared at Logan who was also still on the floor.
"Pretty good, Ice. We'll work on your hand-to-hand combat everyday and soon you'll be better than me." Taylor gave Logan a cold smile.
"Goody," she said before getting up. "I need to go to my room now, so I'll catch you later Wolf-man."
"Wolverine," Logan amended raising an eyebrow. It obviously didn't bother him much so Taylor ignored him.
"Whatever. See ya."
When Taylor got to her room she noticed Rogue wasn't in there and she was sad to say she was relieved. But all in all, she figured that the less contact she had with the other girl, the less likely she was to become attached. She grabbed some sweats and a rag and towel and headed for the shower. When she did she touched the door. Again, she felt the pull of a premonition.
It was Rogue. She and her boyfriend Bobby were out by a large oak in front of a school. They were talking to each other when Rogue was attacked by a shadow. The last thing Taylor saw was Rogue's mouth opening in horror as she screamed.
Taylor took a deep breath and tried to calm herself. She checked the clock. It was seven o'clock and she knew Rogue and Bobby were going out at six thirty. She dropped her things and headed back towards her bed. She pulled her pack from under the bed and pulled out the Book of Shadows. She opened the book and began flipping pages, hoping to find the demon.
She stopped on one page and she could feel the blood drain from her face.
"No," she whispered. "He can't be here. He's supposed to be trapped under the house."
AN: Okay, okay. You can yell at me. I know it's really short but I really wanted a good cliffhanger! See you next chapter.
