Chapter 6

I cried out again unable to help myself my head was sending my nerves wild! What was going on with me? Why was I suddenly in a tortured pain? …..........What had set this off?

I could feel the hot rag on my forehead and the blankets around me. I could also hear the voices around me, but I couldn't move.

"Then she started screaming and yelling for the pain to stop." Ash was explaining to other people, I couldn't make out there voices my head hurt to much, but somehow I could make his out.

"Do you think it was the blood?" Someone asked.

"No, she had enough blood in her system, even if she can't control her thirst it wouldn't make her react in that way." Ash's voice said, his smooth voice was easing the pain in my head.

"Then what would cause pain in her head like that? She's a vampire, and lamia at that, so she can't be sick or anything... Did she hit her head on wood?"

"No, it wouldn't make her scream like that unless the wood was piercing her skin, but when the healer inspected it nothing was there. Almost as if she was in perfect shape."

"Okay, so repeat what happened again?"

"I already told you, we went to work on her training. I caught a doe and we fed and while we were training we were taking about my sister Rowan..."

It was back again, as sharp as needles pushing into my brain, I screamed loud enough to break glass. I couldn't even hear the voices anymore, it was all too loud in my ears. Suddenly I felt something warm hit my hand, I held onto it, it was easing the pain. It was trying to move away, but I couldn't let it, I gripped on tighter.

As the pain began to ease I began to relax. This time when I relaxed the pain almost completely went away and I was able to open my eyes.

Surrounding me was Quinn, Poppy, and Ash.

I couldn't stop myself from asking "Whats going on?" I tried to sit up but dizziness washed over me and I fell back in the bed I was in, it looked like I was in a hospital. Ash caught me from falling so fast and moved me to sit up.

Quinn and Poppy looked like they had been struck by lightning. I turned to Ash, he looked like he had been struck by lightning and had been run over by a 18 wheeler.

"Must I repeat myself?" I asked in an exhausted tone. Ash just removed my hand from his, which is what I was holding onto I guess and sat in the chair next to my bed running his fingers slowly through his hair.

"Hello?! Somebody answer me!" I was so tired I was getting annoyed.

"You and Ash are related." Quinn chocked out, wait did I hear him right?

"Brother and sister." Poppy stuttered. Did the unexpected pain cause me damage to my ears?

"Twins." Ash whispered, looking me straight in the eye, I knew his candy green eyes weren't joking. But how? How could this be possible? And how did they know?

"What are you talking about?" I asked eagerly. My mind was reeling, how was any of this possible?

"When you were in whatever state you were just in you told us." Quinn said softly.

I rubbed the temples of my forehead "Look, I've already told you I don't know my family, so how would I tell you? Huh? Especially when I was paralyzed in pain?" I just realized how much this was stressing me out.

Quinn was about to say something when Poppy took the stand instead. "Debris I'm part witch, so I know what happened and how."

"Then will you please tell me?" I was frustrated.

She took a breath, "K, you know how you said you were taken away when you were barely a few weeks old? Well whoever must have taken you erased all your memories, and when you are exposed to things related to your memories the perimeter around them is being attack, therefore causing the pain."

"What does this have to do with me being related to Ash?"

"When Ash was talking about R................ his older sister, it caused you pain." I'm glad she stopped herself just in time.

"But then why didn't it bother me when he said Kestrel and Jades names?"

"They weren't born yet."

"Okay, so even if this is true, how did I tell you?"

"Whoever puts the bindings on your memories has to tell you what not to remember. Even though your memories are hidden, you are still able to recall what you were told not to remember, but you don't project it with your voice, you project it with theirs." Poppy took a deep breath, so did I.

"Okay so let me get this straight, some persons voice came out of my mouth?!"

"Yea." We all sat in silence. I turned to Ash, our eyes connected, I turned back to Poppy.

"How did Ash not know? …......That.... that he had a twin?"

"That I don't know, did either of you two feel pain when you first saw each other?" we both shook our heads no. "Did you ever have feelings you were missing someone in you life?" I didn't move, but it was a fer sure yes. I had felt I was missing someone my whole life, and now that I thought of it, I had felt better yesterday. Quinn and Poppy just stared at us, but still none of us moved.

"Ash did anyone ever tell you that they had lost a member in your family?" Ash shook his head, he was being very quiet. "Do you think his parents were brainwashed too?" Quinn asked Poppy, she shook her head.

"I think they might all know, I think they didn't want to tell Ash or the girls, but I'm sure you know who knows."

Ash stood up, "Why would they hide all this from me? I knew there was something going on....! But they never would tell me!" I stared at him, he truly looked flustered, as if his life were making more sense and yet being destroyed at the same time. I had a sudden urge to hug him around his middle, to claim him as my brother, I had a family!

Quinn and Poppy looked at each other, they left the room. As soon as the door closed, I turned to Ash.

He was looking straight at me. My eyes began to water, for the first time in 11 years. I got up off the bed and did exactly what I wanted to do, I hugged him.

To surprise, he hugged back, and let me tell you...... it felt good to have my brothers arms around me.
