Chapter Six
"Alex, I don't think this is such a good idea." Harper and I were in the Wizard Lair, packing up the necessary stuff I needed to help find Mason. Harper was just standing there, not bothering to help me, and not being a very supportive friend, if you ask me. Did she think that all of my ideas were bad? Well, I bet that I could come up with a whole list of bad ideas Harper had. Like that time when, um . . . when . . . UGH! . . . Let's just get on with the story! "You don't even know if that's Mason," Harper continued. She set herself down on the couch and picked up one of my magazines that I had lying around all over this house. I snatched the magazine out of her hands and threw it across the room. "Hey!"
"I know its Mason," I said, finalizing my point. I took a sip of my water and sat down on the couch as well. As soon as I sat down, Harper stood up. If her goal was to make me think that I'm weirding her out or something, she succeeded.
Walking around the room, being totally freaked out by the skeleton that was staring her straight in the face, Harper then inquired, "How?" Ugh, what was this, twenty questions? Firstly, I'm pretty sure that I said clearly that I heard his voice in the back of my head. And it wasn't just my imagination. I know that he was warning me. But I needed to know where he was. I had to search for him. And I knew just how I was going to do it.
I paced the floor one last time and placed my hair behind my ear. I looked at Harper, expectantly and she was staring at me in confusion. Finally, I answered her question, vaguely. "I just know."
"I need to find Juliet!" I was eavesdropping on Justin and Max's conversation. Justin stood, pacing the floor in a rush, (yeah, some things we have in common, sadly) twirling his wand around his fingers. Max was sitting on the couch; clueless as ever, fiddling with . . . were those the mummy eyes? Oh, I can't believe he found where I hid them. Ugh! Anyway, he probably wasn't even listening to a word Justin was saying, while on the other hand, surprisingly, I was.
"Uh-huh." Max just sat there like a bump on a log. Everything Justin was saying to him was going in one ear and out the other.
But Justin romped on. "I've lost her and I—I haven't been able to move on." Justin continued on for minutes.
Max surprised me by getting up from his seat, and shaking Justin by the shoulders vigorously and saying, "Justin!" Well, more like shouting. Justin widened his eyes and retorted from Max's grip. Oh, my gosh. Was he scared of him? Haha! This was just too good! Max loosened his grip on Justin's shoulders and lowered his voice, "Why are you telling me this? You know just as well as I do, that I'm not listening to a word you're saying." Wow. I guess Max can put together a sentence of wisdom. "And I have no idea what you're talking about." Ah. There's the Max I know. "But my point is, don't talk to me. Talk to Alex." WHAT? Okay, scratch that last sentence, Max seriously has no idea about anything does he?
"What?" Justin exclaimed. EW, we think alike. Ugh! "Why?"
"Because, Alex has gone through the same exact thing as you. You've both lost someone you loved." Am I dreaming or did Max just make sense? . . .
"Well, I hate, and I mean I really do hate to admit this Max but, you're right," Justin stated, calmly. Okay, has everybody in this family officially lost it? "And were you even listening to one word I was saying?"
"Not really." Phew, I sighed. Finally. At least now, Max is acting like Max again.
"Justin shrugged, looking slightly melancholy while saying, "Yeah . . ."
"Um, Alex?" I heard the sound of my brother's voice coming in through the door. He knocked twice, and I thought before letting him in. Eventually, he gave up and just bursted through my room anyway.
"Ugh! What do you want?" I asked, lazily, not bothering to turn to face him. I just glanced at him through my mirror. He took a seat on my bed. Great, now I'll have to change the sheets.
"Can I talk to you?" he asked, moping.
Ha! That was a good one. No. But for some reason I found myself saying, "Fine."
"It's about . . . Juliet." Justin fidgeted with his fingers, silently, waiting for me to respond. Huh, I guess he took Max's advice. Which was weird because well, this is Max we're talking about here. I mean, no one ever listens to him. But you know what Max? This is just great. Because now, I have to deal with Justin's stupid problems. I have problems, too, you know! Uch! Thanks Max.
"Oh?" I asked, in the most polite way possible. Well, for me, anyway. When I saw he wasn't answering, I turned around to face him. I decided to tell him about my plan. "Look Justin, I know I promised I'd help you find her, but . . . Mason told me that if I don't find him, our family's going to be in danger." I chose just to lay it all on him, like that. Uh-oh, I know that look that Justin's got smacked across his face. I'm in big trouble.
"Alex, when you were bringing Mason into human form, how did you do it again?" Justin asked me. Uh-oh. I'm in really big trouble. But I had to tell him.
"I . . . gave him half of my powers," I said, in a such hushed tone it almost came out like a whisper. A list of Justin's potential thoughts danced around in my head. And from what I was imagining, I was really in for it.
"Right, right—you what?" Justin stumbled.
"Ugh, didn't I tell you this already? Yesterday, remember?" I asked, getting a nervous feeling in the pit of my stomach.
"Oh. You did?" Justin asked, awkwardly. How could he not remember? It was just yesterday, wasn't it? I shook away this weird moment and continued.
"Justin, what am I going to do?" I whined like a little girl. I needed Justin to help me. I mean, he was the whole brains of the operation when it came to wizardry. Let's face it, he's probably going to win the wizard competition, but let's not get into that now.
"I don't know how to say this Alex." Uh-oh. I don't like the sound of those words.
Which led me to say, "Oh, just say it already!"
"Alex, by doing that you could be putting the whole family . . .in danger."
Sorry guys! I know it's short but I really wanted to end on cliffhanger! Oh and sorry for the not posting in ten million years, but I got super busy! So all right hope you enjoyed, new chapter coming soon, and please R&R!
