Sorry it been awhile but right after my internetless vacation I went on another trip and I wasn't allowed to even bring my computer! Sigh... anyway... ENJOY!
"Callypso? I really think you should stop banging your head against the wall." Meggie was looking up at me from the ground.
Yeah you heard her right. Banging my head against the wall cause quite frankly I was out of ideas.
"Thanks for your concern" bang "But I'll be perfectly fine." bang.
Meggie looked unconvinced "I wish I had a book at least."
"Yeah" I sighed deciding to take a break from destroying my braincells "And I wish I had some paper."
The thing was there was nothing to do in our room. Sure it had beds and all but still... I was really bored.
After a few moments of silence- "Callypso! Look!"
I leaned over the edge of the bunkbed and saw Meggie triumphantly holding some books and a flash light. "Books!"
"Paper!" I hissed greedily. Meggie clutched the books to her cheast.
"You wouldn't write on them would you?"
I stared at her "Duh I would! I need to figure out how to get out of here!"
She stared at me despretly then I sighed and rolled my eyes "Fine keep them."
She handed me the Odessy "Here I don't like this book as much. It can be frightening."
I mused over reading the Stephen King books to her one of these days but decided against it and took the book. I stashed it under my pillow. I would save it until I needed it...
I woke to Meggie's whispering that night "Tink said the shaddow was in the big bo. "She meant the drawers, and Peter jumped at the drawers, scattering the contents on the ground withhis hands..."
Meggie stopped abruptibly.
"Meggie, what the heck are you-" a bright light flashed by me. "Meggie... what did you do?"
"I...I didn't mean to" I saw the book in her hand was Peter Pan. Tinkerbell! Meggie had Mo's gift!
"Ok don't panic." I said calmly "We just need to-"
I was interupted by Basta's voice just outside the door "You call that keeping watch? Open this door!" There was a jangle of keys.
"And now we can panic." I stood up on the bunk trying to catch tinkerbell as she flew past me. I heard the door unlock and I jumped in desperation managing to catch Tinkerbell in my out streached hand... before I fell to the floor with a bang.
"Ow..." I groaned.
I looked up and saw Basta was kneeling over me "Why on earth would you have just jumped off your bed sweetheart?"
"Uh... impulsive decision?" I tried. My body hurt from the fall.
Basta smirked "What's in your hand?"
"I have nothing in my hand" I lied the glowing from my fist betraying me.
Basta siezed my wrist and forced my hand open. Tinkerbell fluttered out and shot twoards the celing but Basta threw his jacket and her light dissapeared. He picked up his jacket holding it like a sack and stalked over to me as I pulled myself shakily to my feet.
"Where did this come from princess?" he hissed shaking the bag.
"It wasn't me" I said quickly. Basta looked like he might say more but Meggie jumped in.
"Leave her alone! She didn't do anything!"
"Ha" I said "I have witnesses!"
Basta turned twoards Meggie who took a step back "Are you telling me that this little creature just appeared?"
Meggie, who wasn't the best at Poker faces, glanced at Peter Pan.
Basta looked from her to the book "Well fancy that. Seems the little witch has her fathers gift."
I came over to Meggie's side glaring at Basta.
He shrugged and tucked the book in his waist band then siezed bothe me and Meggie's wrist. "We're going to see Capricorn about this, oh and to see a few old aquaintances."
As he pulled us out the door Meggie asked "Is my father here yet?"
Basta's pace didn't slow "Him? Hmm, no he hasn't shown up yet. I guess he thinks more of his own skin than yours."
Meggie bit her lip. I once again couldn't find anything to say...
Ok Peole! Review!
