Sing Your Way Out
Chapter 5: I Am Now
C j POV:
Ian was confused about everything! He even trailed behind as I walked to my recording session. He sat in a chair as I sang:
'Cos when a heart breaks
No it don't break
No it don't break
No it don't break
Even no
What am I going to do
When the best part of me
Was always you and
What am I supposed to say when
I'm all choked up that you're okay
I'm falling to pieces yeah,
I'm falling to pieces yeah,
I'm falling to pieces
The song ended, and I walked away from the room, Ian trailing hopelessly behind.
"How do you have two abilities." Ian asked.
"It is a Ward family trait. Everyone in my family has two powers." I explained.
"Yours are..." Ian said.
"Perception and Ani-Talk." I finished.
"Okay." He said.
"What I need to know is why… when is the battle, and how do you know all those people?" Ian said.
"we aren't sure when the battle is going to be." I said.
"Okay, then how do you know all those people?" Ian asked.
"All from my family, or family friends." I said.
"You know a lot of people." Ian said.
"Yea." I said. 'Yea? Yea! That's all you can say to the guy you like! That's not a cool thing to say!' I scolded myself mentally.
"Cool." Ian said.
Ian POV:
"Cool." I said. 'Cool? Cool! That's all you can say in front of the girl you like! That's not the best thing to say!' I scolded myself mentally. My focus was immediately shifted back to Cj, as she let out a loud gasp.
"What?" I said.
"Tiki!" She squeaked.
"What?" I said
"Jay just texted me, someone broke Tikis arm!" She hissed with anger. The next second, she was racing down the halls, towards the infirmary.
"You're here." Jay said as soon as we walked into the room.
"Who did this?" Cj spat. I had never seen her so angry.
"The rooks." Jay whispered.
"They are going to pay!' Cj said, and turned around, and stalked out of the room.
"What happened!" came a gasp from behind me. I turned around. It was James and Susan.
"The rooks hurt her, and now Cj is going on a revenge spree." Jay said.
"We have to stop her; you know what happened last time!" James said.
"Yes." Susan said with a laugh
"What happened?" I asked.
"She ripped the idiot who hurt Tiki, to shreds last time. She is very protective, even if she doesn't seem it." Jay said.
'Ill go." I said.
Cj POV:
How am I going to get my revenge on those excuses for life. I Climbed into the observatory, and sat down on a couch. How was I going to get my revenge? No one, absolutely no one hurt my little sister, and got away with it. I got up, and turned to leave, when I heard the entrance to the tunnels opening. I turned around.
Ian. I sighed, who else could it be?
"Ceej, listen to me, you don't have to go fight to rooks because of Tiki. There must be another way!" He said.
"There is no other way." I hissed. I turned around, and left the room.
Midnight the same night…
My cloak swished softly as I walked the path less walked. I walked along the winding halls. They seemed endless. I kept walking. I got to an old door. I heard voices inside. Slowly, I reached forward, grasping the cold iron door knob in my hand, and turned it. There was no commotion when I walked into the room. Good. They thought it was just one of them. Yea right! There was commotion as I swept of the cloak.
"YOU!" Oden hissed at me.
"Yes, me." I hissed back.
"What are you doing here?" Asked Oden.
"Who hurt Tiki?" I hissed at everyone in the room.
"That would be me you want then." Oden hissed back.
"You had no right!" I hissed, my blood starting to boil with anger. I saw a flash of regret in Odens eyes. His name wasn't Oden. Jeremy was in west campus. This was a new Oden. His name was Jackson.
"I had every right!" He hissed heartlessly.
"No you didn't." I hissed.
"Let's settle this then!" He hissed, and launched himself at me. I immediately side steeped him, and he went crashing into the ground. Not before he grabbed my leg, and pulled me down with him. I quickly rolled, got up, and looked around. It seemed just to be Oden and me. All of the other rooks seemed to have fled the scene. I was brought back to reality to a punch in a face. I fell, and hissed in agony. I slowly got up. Jackson had a look of triumph on his face. He leapt, and I side stepped him again, and tried to pin him down. I kicked him in the stomach, and he hissed in anger. We rolled on the ground, locked in battle. Suddenly, Jackson got a hold of my sleeve, and smiled cruelly. With one strong heave, I was sent flying across the room, and hit the wall with a thud.
"Not so strong now?" Jackson hissed.
"She doesn't have to be." Snarled a voice behind him. I smiled the best I could. Ian.
"So you're going to protect your girl friend?" Jackson hissed. With that Jackson was sent flying across the room, and hit the wall with a thud.
"Ceej, are you okay?" Ian asked franticly.
"I am now." I whispered before the world went black.
Sorry for the late update! How do you like it?
