Covenant fanfic chapter 14

Somewhere else around campus, Caleb was hanging around with Sarah, Kate and Pogue. They had been just walking and talking for a while. They didn't know really what to do with themselves. They sat by the main building on a bench and talked about Reid's ascension in 2 weeks. They had felt obligated to tell Kate about their powers after she was held under a spell by Chase.

"How do you think Reid will cope with his new powers?" Pogue asked Caleb with a chuckle. He just looked back at him with an amused smile.

"What do you think?" he laughed, breaking out into a new fit. Sarah laughed but Kate was still getting used to the humour.

"Huh?" she asked, only causing the others to laugh even more and Pogue to snuggle her and kiss her confused face over and over. None of them knew that their happiness would come crashing down to an all time low in just a matter of seconds as a certain cocky douche bag strutted over to them with purpose.

"Hey, Danvers!" called Aaron from the other side of the car park near the bench, causing the all four smile to falter and fall from their faces.

"What do you want, Aaron?" asked Pogue, suddenly very annoyed.

"I'm not talking to you, Parry." Aaron sneered as he turned his attention back to the harsh eyed Caleb, whose eyes were a lot darker brown in comparison to his sisters'.

"Well if you're going to look at me like that, I won't tell you what I know." He chortled coldly. Caleb shook his head.

"What could you possibly know that I would be interested in?" he asked, honestly disinterested. Aaron continued to smirk, the suspense and anticipation were killing him inside. He couldn't wait to share the news.

"Oh, trust me, this is something you won't want to miss." Aaron said. He seemed so sure of himself that Caleb wondered what it could really be.

"What is it then?" he asked, Pogue, Sarah and Kate on the edge of their seats also.

"It's about your sister."

Reid, Tyler and Summer were still laughing at the rec. For some reason, they found the window jumping story rather amusing. Their day was also about to be spoilt, but this time, by someone more familiar.

"REID!" came a bellowing from across the rec. Their smiles abruptly vanished as they saw a fuming Caleb jogging across the field. An upset Sarah concerned Kate and a mix between anger for Caleb and anger for Reid looking Pogue. Caleb jutted out in front, fuelled by rage.

"I'm sorry, Summer." Reid whispered in Summer's ear before Caleb's eyes flashed black and Reid was thrown into the tree that they were standing underneath. He reached the small group, throwing Tyler aside and grabbing Summer and putting her behind him. Staring on at Reid despite Summer's protests. Reid struggled to get up, he didn't Use, he felt like he deserved this. He had lied to his brother, and slept with the one person he cared about the most in the world out of a relationship. He just couldn't help himself. The worst part of all is that Caleb might've given them his blessing if he had just asked. Sneaking around was the worst thing he could've done.

"Get up! Get up you little PUNKASS!" shouted Caleb. Reid did as instructed, but Caleb showed no mercy. He sent a shot of energy at Reid and he flew into a brick wall, not getting up. Pogue and Tyler restrained him, telling him that this was crazy and that he shouldn't Use in public, even if there was no one around.

Summer rushed over to the still Reid, he twitched and coughed a little blood. A fresh black eye blooming on his left eye brow. She stroked his face as Caleb shouted obscenities at Reid. They echoed in his head, rebounding off of his skull at all edges so that he heard them again and again, and again, and again...

He looked up at Summer forlornly, he couldn't live like this everyday. That would kill him. Ending this pain would end up killing him in the long run, but he had to end it. He didn't mean to be so selfish, but his had no choice.

"Summer." He whispered, tears welling in his eyes although they his beneath the blood dripping from the gashes on his forehead. She looked down at him. He couldn't look into those beautiful brown eyes. He was surely change his mind if he did, so he chose a spot above her eyes to focus.

"Summer, I can't do this," he struggled, "I'm sorry, Caleb was right, this shouldn't be allowed."

Summer couldn't believe what she was hearing. Her heart was obliterated. Shattered into a million pieces. She began to cry. She ran to her brother, distraught: this was his fault and his fault only.

"I hate you," she called. She reached him and pounded his chest, "I HATE YOU!" she screamed. She slapped his face and ran away, her brunette locks flying elegantly behind her.
