I quickly changed into my Earth form and listened to the earth scream one final time. The Forest god sank against the building and bloomed into a white flower. Grass and moss covered the surrounding area and pollen began to float downwards. It was beautiful and yet sad at the same time.
" You ok?"Anya asked placing a gentle yet firm hand on my shoulder
I nodded numbly and breathed deeply. Hellboy came back carrying the infant with him. the mother took the child away from him and asked what he had done to her child. People had began calling us freaks and other berating names. I clench my fists at my sides. trying not to lose control of my temper, but so far that was not doing me justice. Hellboy tried to come near us but the police drew their weapons. That did it. Under my control, vines came out and ripped the guns out of the police's hands and crushed them. Everyone turned to look at me in awe since they all thought I was normal. Liz seized the opprotunity to stand in front of Hellboy.
" He was only trying to help. That's all we do" she said reaching down and grasping his stone hand." that's all he has done for you is help."
I saw Someone throw and object at Hellboy, that caused liz to ignited into her fire element. At the sight, everyone grew quiet and the cops looked confused. Hellboy placed a hand on her shoulder and muttered " Let's go home"
The minute we arrived I stormed back into my room and slammed the door shut. locking it to be sure no one invaded my privacy, In rage I sat down and meditated. I stayed like that for a good half hour and finally went out and searched for Hellboy. Instead I heard strange music coming from the library. I was about to ask when Hellboy suddenly cmae from beside me and opened the door. The sight made me want to laugh. Abe was listening to love music, he galnced up a bit startled at both of us.
" Ah hello Red and Gwen, your up late" He said
"What are you listening to?" Hellboy asked noticing that Abe had a cd dic holder in his hand.
" Vivaldi" Abe replied as Hellboy began walking to him.
" What's that?"Hellboy said pointing to a disc holder that didn't look like Vivaldi.
I snatched the Cd holder out of Abe'd hand and cringed at the title. My teeth bit my lower lip as I handed it to Hellboy.
" Popular love songs" Hellboy read outloud and chuckled when he saw me laughing quietly to myself. It took him a moment to figure it out." Your.......Oh Abe you fell for the princess"
" She's like me from another world" He said sitting down on the stairs
" You need to get out more Abe" said Hellboy while sitting down and using his elbows to prop himself up.
I had finished my laughing and joined the two, sitting on the lower stair and trying to block the music out. When that didn't work I simply relented and waited for the disc to stop.
" She's alone in the world and I need to care for her" Abe replied.
Hellboy grabbed a beer can and handed it to Abe " Your in love have a beer. You to Hobbit" He said also handing me even caring for the fact that I was a minor and that I wasn't allowed to drink for another eight years. I opened the drink and listened to Abe making all these excuses as to why he shouldn't drink beer. But Hellboy convinced him and the two started drinking away. The beer tasted chalky but the after taste was okay in a way. I had to plug my nose and force myself to drink it.
" What track?" Hellboy absentmindedly asked.
" Eight" Abe replied as he opened his can of beer.
" Can't smile without you" Hellboy read and placed the disc holder aside
" I know" Abe replied
" Yep I'm gonna need another beer" Hellboy replied grabbing another can
Abe turned on the song and we all began singing to it. I had no control over what I was doing and I found myself laughing hysterically for some very odd reason.
Anya's point of view
I could hear the music as I tilted my head towards the ceiling. I bet everyone in the enitre building could hear it and this I found amusing. Nuala was sitting across from me and she suddenly stood up and placed her hand outward.
" He's here" She said in elvish and grabbed my hand while making her way towards the library.
I watched as she tossed both the map and the cylinder case into the burning fire. she took the final piece and placed it into a blue book of poems and placed it randomly on a shelf. That was when I noticed my sister sleeping in a chair with her head against the desk... and about five beer cans surrounding her. one of them was in her hand. I gasped when Nuala turned around and came face-to-face with Nuada.
" Very quickly" he said allowing his eyes to wonder over to the fire " But it's of no importance the cylinder however" Nuada reached into the fire and grabbed the red hot cylinder " Is very interesting"
he walked over to a table and placed the cylinder down and rolled it. A map was revealed and my breath grew rapid as he pointed out the location of the Golden army.
" And as for the crown piece I know it's here" Nuada said placing his hand on Nuala's cheek" I can feel that much in you. Father always tried so hard to shield your heart from mine" He went over to the shelf of books and looked at me briefly and then back her " It's in one of the books and I will find it" Nuada drew out a blue book and opened it to a random page " Blue, you always look beautiful in blue" He slammed the book down making Nuala jump.
I ran and stood beside Nuala,I grasped her hand and watched as Nuada continued searching for the crown piece. I heard a groan and saw Gwen rubbing her temples as she felt the aftermath of being drunk. I saw Nuala glance at the emergency button and without a second thought she pressed it. I saw Gwen place her head back down and went to sleep. Nuada grabbed Nuala's wrist a look of betrayal on his face. He then allowed his eyes to wonder over to me,
" So we finally meet" He said then turned to Nuala" Why?"
