I am going to do something very impossible somewhere in this chapter or the next one. It was driving me crazy that Crow couldn't fight as a falcon and I'm going to fix that with something impossible so bear with me.
~J.L. Smith owns night world. Jetholiday16 owns Haddix Knight, and Damon Kings. P.S this Damon is not the one from Vampire Diaries.
Rowan POV
Last night, after seeing Crow get kidnapped I rushed home and curled up in a corner of the room. It wasn't that Crow had been kidnapped, it was who had kidnapped him. He was a monster. An obsessive vampire that couldn't stand to lose. It was Damon Kings. And if Damon was here, then he couldn't be that far behind. By now I was hoping that neither of them would come here.
Sapphire was freaked out by the news but kept hitting on Greg, who was really nervous about Damon. Onyx was just plain going nuts. It was right then that the doorbell rang. I opened it and slammed it right back. "Who was it?" Onyx and Greg asked. "him." I said back.
"Damon?" Greg growled. "No, worse." I answered. That's when Sapphire opened the door. "Oh my god! How many hot guys do you have following you?" she yelled. Standing in the door way was an old, around 200 years old, flame; Haddix Knight. And what was he holding by the collar? A 17 year old lamia.
She had long brown hair and gold eyes. She stood about 5'11 and had a very ticked expression on her beautiful face. "Hi Rowan, long time no see." He smiled. Haddix had white blond hair that fell to his shoulders. He somehow managed to always keep his hair out of his face. The only thing that he and Damon had in common were their pale blue eyes. "Haddix." I said back.
"Greg called me and told me about how your shapeshifter friend had been kidnapped by Damon. So I checked out the forest. I found this little lamia in a clearing that had Damon, Crow's, and her scent all over it. And she was holding this." Haddix told me, holding Crow's ring/necklace.
I told him to get inside my house and join the meeting. Then we all looked at the lamia. "Who are you?" Greg asked. "She's nobody!" Onyx yelled. We all looked at the witch. He was a very bad liar.
"My name is Scarlet Red Wood." The lamia answered. "And why were you in that clearing?" Greg asked. "because that's where Crow and I meet on Fridays and Saturdays." she replied. "Scarlet! Don't tell them!" Onyx yelled. "You know Crow?" I asked.
"Of course I know him, he's my boyfriend." She said with a blank expression. Perfect for interrogations. "and she tells them." the witch sighed. A mixture of happiness and embarrassment flooded over me. I was happy that I had finally revealed one of Crow's many secrets, and embarrassed that I had made such a big deal over revealing this little one.
"She doesn't know anything. She's just looking for her boyfriend." I said smiling. "Do you recognize this man?" I said handing a photo of Damon to her.
Damon had black hair that was almost exactly as long as Haddix's but it was almost always in his face. Damon was an inch taller than Haddix and was totally obsessed with me. On a crazy scale of 1 to 10 he was a good 14. While Haddix was kind and gentle, Damon was harsh and rough.
She scowled and nodded. "I've seen him around town. He's a creepy scumbag that's always hanging around the woods. Once he came into our clearing. He looked at Crow who was giving him a glare that would scare a murderer and walked away." she said smiling at the memory.
"He kidnapped Crow." Greg told her. "I figured as much. He and Crow's scents were at the clearing." Scarlet replied, trying to stop the tears from falling from her eyes. "We'd better start looking for Damon before it gets dark, the night is his element." Haddix suggested. "Okay. Let's go." Sapphire agreed. "You need to stay here in case your parents come home." Greg argued. "Awwww. I want to come." she whined, stomping up to her room.
We walked outside and Greg changed into his wolf form and began tracking. It didn't take long. Damon was living in a one story house near the edge of the woods. Haddix smashed a window since the door was made of oak.
"Come on, but be careful." He whispered. The house was small but creepy. It had only three rooms and one of them had a blood stain on the carpet. In another were multiple pictures of me. Like I said, he was obsessed. Crow was nowhere to be found.
"Guy's! I found something!" Scarlet hissed. We ran in to find Damon's bed flipped over, and a metal door beneath it. "Good job Scarlet." I smiled.
Crow POV
I looked back on the nice day that I'd had so far... Oh wait, I'd been beaten and chained to a metal wall! My clothes were torn to shreds, I had bruises and scrapes on nearly every inch of my body, and some vampire named Damon Kings had kidnapped me. Speak of the devil I thought as he walked in.
"So how's my favorite prisoner today?" He smiled. I replied by spitting on him and growling. "Well that was rude. If you want to leave you can wait until my darling Rowan comes for you." He said again. "And then I'll tear you to shreds and burn you. After that I'll let the ashes scatter in the wind." I said with a smile.
"Says the boy chained to the wall." Damon grinned. I'll go get a nice strawberry crush and you can drink your own sweat!" he growled walking to the other part of the underground maze. It was then that the metal hatch two rooms over opened. "Quiet! Damon could be down here!" Onyx hissed. I breathed a sigh of relief. "Guys!" I called. "Crow!" Scarlet called back, her voice filled with happiness.
The group ran in and a tall boy with white blond hair began breaking the chains. "Haddix Knight." He said glancing a me. "Crow Tycon." I replied. The second I was free Scarlet jumped into my arms. "I was so worried about you." She said shakily. "It's okay. I'm all right." I breathed. It was wonderful to hear her beautiful voice again. "Glad to see you in one piece buddy." Onyx said smiling.
"Well isn't that touching." Damon said as he stepped back in. "Hello Rowan, you're still as beautiful as ever my love." He said smiling. "Damon." Greg and Haddix growled. "Hello old friend, mutt."Damon scowled. The two lunged at him, but Damon grabbed each by the throat. He clicked the shackles that had been in his hands around their necks, immobilizing them.
That's when Onyx sent a barrage of fire at him. Damon jumped back, and away from the deadly fire. But it didn't last long. Soon Onyx had to stop, and then he too was chained. "And then there were three." the beast said happily. "Stop this Damon." Rowan said angrily. "But they must pay for keeping us apart my dear soulmate." He replied. "Greg is my soulmate." Rowan growled back.
"But we could be so happy together. He could never love you as I do. And when I kill him, we can be together." He said happily. "Damon, I'll give you one last chance, let my friends go." She growled. "which of the last two should I detain next? Angry, and secluded Crow? Or the fragile lamia? I'll think the girl should go first." he said to himself.
That was when the impossible happened. I dove at Damon , ready to tear him apart with the razor sharp claws that were extending from my shimmering white paws. Wait a minute, paws? Some how I had changed into a white tiger. I didn't let my moment of extreme surprise stop me. I began to rake his body with my shining claws. I bit onto his arm, as he freaked out and tried to pull my jaws from his flesh. In a few minutes it was over.
I changed back and stood over Damon's body. "How did you?" Scarlet breathed. "I don't know. It shouldn't be, isn't possible." I answered. "are you able to change into a falcon still?" she asked. "No." Rowan answered first. "His instincts took over and caused some kind of a gene change." "Yeah, I know." I replied. "Um, guys? Chained people over here." Onyx yelled. We freed them and started to go home. Back to our world of
Gray Skies and Endless Nights
And I'm done. Sorry readers but this is the end of Gray skies and Endless Nights. But if people send in 5 reviews for this chapter I could be persuaded to start a sequel. I want to but I need to know that you guys liked this one first. Adios!
