Chapter 14 Attack at Midnight Pt. 2
Again, screw the disclaimer!
Iliana let out a yelp before Chase's arms wrapped around her. He clamps a hand over her mouth and smirked. He whispered, "Good night."
Chase shifted into feeding mode and stared down at Iliana's pulsing vein. He licked his lips before biting down softly, not wanting his victim to scream.
What happened next was explainable by human words. The world exploded into a white heaven and he felt himself floating in a place beyond time and space. This world of light was filled with happy thoughts and good memories.
At the same time, Iliana, however, plunged into a world of darkness. Angry memories and fears whispered to her here and there. The only safe place was in a cube of ice where she can feel nothing, not even emotion. She drifted about, lost in this world of fear, hatred and ice. A cold silvery mist wrapped around her fragile body and she drifted slowly into a timeless sleep.
Suddenly, a bright silver against all the mist caught her slowly closing eye. Iliana blinked once, twice, and realized, it was a silver cord. A strong silver cord connecting her heart to, to, Something, she thought.
Gathering all the strength she can mutter, Iliana pulled herself out of the cube and slowly out of the dark world that somehow she landed in.
On the other hand, Chase was terrified for once. He was surrounded by rainbows and unicorns and for heaven's sake, PUPPIES! He was a mighty vampire but here he is, covered in sparkles. He is not Edward Cullen in any way.
Amongst all the pink and sparkles he spots a silver cord. He followed it and found it connecting to his heart. He touched it and felt warmth traveling up his arm. Chase felt it being pulled on. He just let himself get pulled. He eventually exited his pink and sparkling nightmare into a place beyond time and space.
If mental spirits collide can collide, Chase and Iliana sure did. If Chase told you the story, it would be Iliana crashed into him but he stood strong and caught himself and Iliana before they can fall.
If Iliana told you the story, it would be Chase crashed into her and fell but she caught him and pulled him up.
If I, as in I the author, told the story it would be they crashed into each other and both fell. Since I am telling the story so we'll go with they both craters into each other and fell.
Chase rubbed his head. He was confused. Where in the world am I?
Iliana would have told him if she knew but sadly, she didn't have a clue.
Chase turned to face Iliana. He was about to say something to break the awkward silence when a voice sliced through their whatever it was called space and brought them back to reality.
Chase blinked a few times before he looked up and saw the angry faces of Ash and Mary-Lynette.
Ash was about to break Chase's neck when Iliana suddenly popped back into her body. She blinked a few times until she realized she was snuggled up tight against Chase's broad chest. Her cheeks turned pink and rosy and she slowly untangled herself from Chase.
Mare and Ash were looking at Iliana like she was crazy as she bowed a little said, "I'm so sorry um, sir."
Chase just looked at Iliana. He smirked a little and said, "The name's Chase and uh, it's fine." He jumped up on a tree and left leaving Mare and Ash looking a little like this: O_o
A little later, Galen arrived and found Ash and Mary-Lynnette still frozen in place looking like they've seen a ghost. He looked over at Iliana. Wait, Iliana? he thought. Why is she here? He opened his mouth to speak but as soon as he said one word, Iliana was running away, tripped over a root of a tree and fell. She hurriedly stood up and continue to run until she disappeared from sight. Galen was standing there with his mouth open and his hand in the air like an idiot.
A curtain moved and a leaf fell from a tree. All of a sudden, Saphire appeared on the rooftop of the building over looking Mare, Ash, and Galen. An evil smirk appeared on her pale face and she licked her lips. She turned around and saw Chase panting at a tree trying to make sense of what happened. She flipped out her phone and speed dialed a number. Someone picked up and replied, "Hello, this is Hunter Redfern."
Sapphire replied smoothly, "Master, everything is going smoothly." With that said, she hung up and left.
Hehehe, something's up with Saphire. I guess there is something going on behind her ever changing hair color. :) I hope you liked this chapter and please review! And thanks to my beta BookSessed!
