Chapter Three - Mina

Here we are, at Chapter Three! Let's see what happens when Mina encounters two people who - at the moment - she happens to hate with a very fiery passion!

Evx : Nooo, don't die! I need your reviews in order to keep writing! cx

Guest : In my story, Mina is a Royal, and then we have someone else (I'm interested to see if anybody knows who) who happens to be a type of Fae, but he/she doesn't know it. ;) In the actual books, Mina is a siren though, and then this other mystery figure is a normal human.

I slip out of Teague's arms - purposefully - landing on my feet and glaring at the door. Hurray. We get to see my boyfriend and best friend. More like my ex and my old best friend. I hope they don't think we're still even on friend terms. Then again, they're both pretty much idiots. I wouldn't be surprised if they thought I still adored them. Ugh. How stupid could they get? If only I'd known I was a Royal. I never would've hung out with idiots like them.

Brody opens the door, and a grin takes his face. "Mina! You're okay!"

Does he not catch me glaring at him? Apparently he doesn't, because he pulls me into a hug, and I have to physically push him away.

"M-Mina? Are you okay?" Oh, now he's hurt? Are we going to have a blubbering baby on our hands? This better not become the water works, or I'm leaving.

"Stop acting like somethings wrong with me when I'm not the problem." I growl, and his eyes widen. "Trying talking to a mirror instead."

"Mina, what are you talking about?"

"You know exactly what I'm talking about." I walk past him into the room, and I have no doubt he's glaring at Teague, probably blaming Teague for his faults. Arrogant idiot. Just because he's rich doesn't mean he owns the world, or that he can never do anything wrong.

"Mina, why on earth were you acting like that to Brody? He's your boyfriend!"

"Shut up." I retort. "Are you seriously trying to give me advice when you're the type of friend you are? Besides that, you don't even remember having a boyfriend, so what would you know?"

I made sure it would sting, and it does. Hurt is written all over her face, and it's very satisfying.

"Mi-Mina, you need to calm down. What happened?"

"What happened is that I realized how absolutely horrible you two are as friends." I say it bluntly. "One of you is an idiot and the other is a jerk."

That just makes her feel even more hurt. "Mina, why are you doing this? What did I do to make you upset?"

"Would you like me to tick them off on fingers? Oh, wait, the list is longer than how many fingers I have."

"What's gotten into you?" Brody asks, approaching me more warily this time.

"Oh look, the blonde idiot has reentered the conversation. Yay." Sarcasm drips from my voice.

"So I'm the jerk, then?" Nan asks. "Mina, can you just explain what's going on here?"

"Oh, so you're so stupid you can't even understand what's going on, Nan?"

"I can explain." Teague approaches the group. "She was, how shall we say, tortured."

"Tortured?" Brody asks.

"Yes. Is that too big of a word for your small brain to comprehend?" Another stinging blow.

"It kind of brought out a lot of hate that was never there before, as you can see." Teague finishes, and I cross my arms, rolling my eyes.

Nan looks extremely worried, and Brody focuses on Teague. "How do we fix it?"

"Fix it?" I question. "I'd like to keep my unclouded vision, thank you very much. I don't know what I saw in either of you before, because you're both horrible."

"I'm not sure." Teague admits, trying to keep the conversation away from my comment. "For now, we'll focus on trying to find out what happened to Ever, because I bet she will be able to help us out." He pauses. "I think, for now, you guys should leave her alone."

"So that she doesn't throw a tantrum?"

"Yes. That could tip the scales and ruin all chances of fixing this." Do I hear a note of longing in his voice? Does he want the scales to tip? If it keeps them from reclouding my vision, I'm all for tipping these scales.

"Stop talking about me like I'm not here!" I finally snap.

"Mina, why don't I help you work with your Fae magic a bit outside? Since it turns out your a Royal and all."

I shrug. "Fine, I guess."

He looks relieved. "Good. We'll just leave Brody and Nan to devise the plan that will find Ever."

"They'll probably just mess it up." I mutter, before walking off to head outside. I'll get there myself. Anything to get away from these two unbearable, human idiots.

Well, that was fun! I have to admit, I enjoy making Mina evil. c: And making Brody suffer. Honestly, I hated the fact that he immidiately went and kissed Nan after breaking up with Mina, even if Mina told him to go to her. It was stupid. I wanted Brody to be forever alone, because I shipped Nan and Charlie so hard.

You know, someone needs to go write a fanfiction with Nan and Charlie as a ship. Yes. Go. Go do it now.

Keep in mind our little equation! Three reviews equal the next chapter!
