Hazel Eyes: Chapter 12

A/N
I’m so sorry for the delay. I kind of got writers’ block with this story and I kind of forgot what happened in the last chapter. But anyways here’s the next chapter. :)

Chapter 12
Now I kind of wish I asked Logan or Asher to drive me home even though I wanted to hang out with Taylor. Just in case something like this happens. Wait how did I not see this coming? This doesn’t make sense at all.

“Iz.” Taylor got me out of my train of thoughts. “Iz, what do we do?”

“I don’t know.” Damon laughed. “I’m not strong enough to use ability.”

“Aw too bad.” Lilith said with a giggle. I gave her an evil look. “See she’s already part of us, Damon.” Seth and Damon laughed.

“I will never be part of you.” I said through my teeth. “I will never betray my family or friends.” I felt the earth shake a little. I also felt a little dizzy. Taylor grabbed my arm tightly and the weird thing was I didn’t feel dizzy. That’s weird. I thought to myself.

“Iz? Are you okay?” Taylor asked. I nodded my head.

“Don’t let go of me, okay?” I looked at Taylor, she nodded her head.

“Look how cute.” Seth said as he created an electric current in his hands. I heard Taylor gasp. This was probably a lot for Taylor right now. I wish Taylor wasn’t here with me right now. This was way too dangerous for her. She would die if anything touched her. It would obviously kill me too, but I have abilities that will maybe save me and Taylor.

I closed my eyes and thought really hard, so maybe Asher would get the message. Asher I need help. Démoniaque Mortelle are back. I’m alone with Taylor. I opened my eyes and I found my mom, dad, Hunter, Alexander, Logan, Aunt Sabrina, Uncle Andrew, Asher, and Tasha around me. I looked at Asher. He winked at me. I smiled. It was good to know that Asher got my mind message.

“Damon, didn’t I tell you that Isabelle doesn’t want to join your stupid little group.” Alexander said. Damon just laughed. “She will never join, even if it kills her.” I eyes widen when Alexander said that.

“Shut up, Xander.” I looked at him and he had a big smile on his face.

“Well am I wrong?” Alexander asked. Logan hit Alexander in the back of his head. “Ow.”

“Thank you, Logan.” I smiled at Logan. “Okay I would never join Démoniaque Mortelle. Ever.” Lilith gave me a death glare.

“Well if you won’t join us, then we have to kill your little useless human.” Lilith said. Seth chuckled. I looked at Taylor, she had her face in my arm and she was shaking a lot. I didn’t know what to do. I knew that I had to get Taylor out of here, but how.

“I like that idea, Lili.” Damon said with a devilish smile. I was starting to get mad at what Lilith and Damon were saying. If they hurt or touch Taylor I will kill them myself.

“Thank yo—” Lilith was attacked by a wolf. Lilith was screaming. “Damon!” That’s when I heard the loudest scream ever. I dropped to my knees. Taylor dropped with me.

“Make it stop, Iz.” Taylor yelled at me.

“I can’t. I’m not doing that.” Then the screaming stopped. I looked around. The wolf stopped attacking Lilith. Everyone was on their knees covering their ears. “What was that?” Logan slowly got up from his knees.

“That was a sonic scream.” He said. Everyone else slowly got up from their knees. Who has sonic scream because that was crazy loud and annoying. I knew it wasn’t me or my family members. Who was it? It was Sophia. Asher told me in my head. I turned around and saw Sophia and Jayden standing a couple feet behind me.

“Hi, Isabelle.” Sophia waved at me. I awkwardly waved back. Sophia started walking toward me. “We kind of knew you would need help.”

“Even though we’re not allowed to use our abilities.” Jayden stated.

“Wait if you’re not allowed to use your abilities, then what’s the point of actually having an ability?” I asked because it didn’t make any sense at all.

“No, we’re allowed to use our ability.” Sophia said. Wait now I’m more confused than before. “We’re just not allowed to use it unless we are told to, like helping a war or fight. But that only happens when the people need our help badly and a lot of the people are dying or dead.” Okay now that really doesn’t make sense even more.

“Um okay.” I got up slowly from my knees helping Taylor helping up. She was shaking and she hasn’t opened her eyes. “Taylor.” She fainted. “Daddy!” I yelled. Uncle Andrew ran to my side and took Taylor.

“I’ve got her, Isabelle.” He told me. “Tasha and I will watch her.” I nodded.

“Don’t worry about Taylor. She’s in good hands.” Uncle Andrew looks at Tasha. She nods her head and Uncle Andrew takes off. “Don’t worry, Isabelle.” Tasha walks up to my mom. She and mom transport home with Taylor and Uncle Andrew.

“Hey!” Seth yelled. I focused my attention to Seth. “I want to fight. Not talk and take care of a stupid human.” I felt my hands get cold. I looked down at my hands and saw that they were blue and there was ice on my hands. That gave me an idea. I looked at Hunter. He looked at my hands and smiled.

“Maybe you should chill out Seth.” I smiled. “Now Hunter.” Hunter sprayed Seth with water and I froze Seth where he was standing. I smiled bigger. I was happy finally Hunter and I worked as a team for the first time.

“Nice job, sis.” Hunter said. I nodded my head as a agreement. “Two down. One to go.” Hunter smiled at Damon.

“You may have Lilith and Seth down, but you can’t stop me. Right Isabelle.” Damon looked at me. I wasn’t sure why he was looking at me for.

“No.” Asher ran toward me.

“Attack everyone!” Damon commanded. Asher started throwing punches at me. I ducked and blocked some of them.

“Asher stop it.” I cried out. I didn’t know how to fight. “Daddy!” I heard my dad run next to me.

“Move, Isabelle.” I ducked and crawled away. Dad was throwing punches at Asher. Asher ducked and dodged some of them. “Isabelle get inside Asher’s mind. Talk to him.” Dad commanded. Asher what’s going on? I talked to Asher in his mind. Damon has the ability to command anyone to do whatever he tells them to do. Asher answered back.

“Daddy. Damon is controlling Asher. How do I stop it?” Dad continued to fight Asher. I wasn’t sure how Asher could handle Dad’s punches. Dad’s ability was strength. I heard a growl and then a guy yelling.

“You pathetic little girl get out me!” Damon yelled. Madison was attacking Damon in wolf form. Asher stopped attacking dad.

“Asher are you okay?” I asked. Asher semi nodded his head. “That was kind of scary.”

“You’re telling me. I’m surprised that your dad didn’t punch me all the way the street.” I looked at dad. He was chuckling. I wonder what was so funny.

“I was thinking about it, but what’s that going to help. Isabelle, I really need to teach you how to fight, especially if that happens again. You’re lucky Asher’s punches didn’t cause any damage to you.” Dad explained. I shrugged my shoulders. I looked back at Asher. He was rubbing his knuckles. I’m pretty sure punching dad would hurt a lot. Dad didn’t seem to look like he got hurt at all, but dad never gets hurt. He’s strong.

“I know, but Uncle Drew never taught me how to punch or anything.” Dad shook his head. “Yes, I know. Uncle Drew should have taught me how to fight, but he’s just like you Dad. He’s scared of hurting me.”

“I’m only scared because I’m stronger than you, honey.” I nodded my head a little.

“I know, dad.” Dad walked toward me and hugged me.

“Maybe Hunter, Logan, or Alexander will teach you.” Dad kissed the top of my head. “I wish I could teach you, but I couldn’t really punch you unless you have force field.” I shook my head.

“No I don’t have force field.”

Beauty and The Shape-Shifter: Part 4

Beauty and the Shape-Shifter: Part 4
“You did everything. You’re ruining everything I had with Jayden, you’re making my family fight.” Hannah yelled at me. I actually didn’t do any of that stuff. Jayden got me involved in this. I would have took the blame for everything I did.

I walked into my 3rd English period class after Hannah walked away angrily. I sat in my seat I’ve been sitting in since I got to Oregon. The seat in the back in the middle of the classroom. It was the only seat open for some reason. I was really surprised that it was open because a lot of students like sitting in the back to be far away from the teacher and don’t want to be called on. But the weird thing is that everyone in the class wants to be called on, but when I get called to read something I wrote everyone loves it and they comment after class when walking out of class.

Ms. Blu wanted us to write an essay, poem, or story about something that reminds us of a good time, bad time, someone we miss, or a place we wish we were there. It was kind of weird that Ms. Blu wanted us to write an essay, poem, or story about something like that. It wasn’t like her. Last week we had to write a book essay on the book we read.

But never question Ms. Blu’s teaching style. One guy name Kris (I think) asked Ms. Blu why we were reading a book, but also writing a essay on something totally different. Ms. Blu just looked at him and threw a paper ball at him. Everyone laughed at him and went back to either working on their essay or reading their book.

I wasn’t sure on what I should write about. I did have good time with my best friend Texas, or when Annabelle was born. I also had some bad time like my whole depression, my brothers leaving to go to college, breaking my arm, or being in the hospital because of my depression. Of course I had more good times, but I really couldn’t think of anymore on the top of my head.

Ms. Blu walked up to my desk. She looked over my shoulder. She probably saw that I didn’t have anything on my paper. I couldn’t believe this was so hard for me. Usually something pops up in my mind instantly, but right now nothing was popping up in my mind.

“Lexi, is everything okay?” Ms. Blu whispered, so she wouldn’t disrupt anyone who was working. I looked up at her, then back to my blank paper on my desk.

“Well, I can’t really think of anything for some reason.” I answered. I looked up at Ms. Blu again, she nodded her head. She knead down.

“Well since you’re my best student here, everyone like your work, and your work is amazing. I’ll let this one slide. Only if you want to. If you don’t want to then you can write whatever comes to mind. I don’t want to give you an F on this assignment because you don’t have anything.” I nodded my head. I completely understood what Ms. Blu was saying.

“Okay, but do you mind if I took this home and did it for homework.” She nodded her head. “Thank you, Ms. Blu.” She got up and continued to walk around the classroom.

The bell rang. I let out a big sigh, but not with relief though. I slowly packed up my things. I was not excited to go to my next class. I just wanted to get this paper over with, but obvious I couldn’t because I had to go to Algebra 2 with some of Hannah’s little followers.

“Have a good day, students.” Ms. Blu said as students walked out of the class and to their next class.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I walked to my locker, I was just having an awful day. I couldn’t even think of anything to write for English and Hannah blaming me for her relationship she had with Jayden. Yeah awful day. I wish this day would get better. That’s when I saw Jayden leaning against my locker like he always is.

“Hello.” He said as I approached my locker. I smiled. Finally. Maybe this day will get better now that Jayden is here.

“Hi.” Jayden smiled big. It was good to see him, even though I already saw him earlier today. “How are you?” Jayden shrugged his shoulders as he moved away from my locker, so I could open it.

“It was okay.” For some reason Jayden was quiet. He’s only quiet when something’s on his mind or something’s wrong.

“Are you okay? You seem very quiet.” I put my 4th period Algebra 2 book in my backpack with my notebook for that class and calculator.

“Um, yeah I’m fine. Just have a lot on my mind, that’s all.” I closed my locker and looked at Jayden. He was looking down at the whitish yellow tiled floor. “Yeah, um do you mind staying after school today?”

“Well I have to go get Annabelle from preschool. You could come over to my house after school, if you want. My parents have to work late today.” Jayden looked up at me with a sideways smile.

“Um sure, that’s fine.” The bell rang.  Jayden straighten up and started walking backward. “I’ll see you at lunch, Lexi.” I nodded my head.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I walked into Mr. Johnston’s class. Hannah’s followers looked at me as I walked in. One of them gave me a disgusted look. Another one whispered into the other’s ear and she laughed. I couldn’t remember their names so I gave them little nicknames. The one who gave me a disgusted look, I call her Leech because she also sucks up to Hannah. The one who laughed at the one who whispered in her, I call her Hyena because she laughs, giggles, snorts, and chuckles at everything. And the one who whispered in Hyena’s ear, I call her Parrot because she talks a lot, she gossips, and she doesn’t know when to shut up.

“Look who it is girls, little emo girl.” Hyena and Parrot laughed at what Leech said. I smiled. “Do any more cutting little emo girl?”

“You know cutting is not a joke. You have no idea what me or anyone who self harms is going through.” Hyena didn’t stop laughing. “You shouldn’t be laughing either.” Hyena stopped laughing.

“It is a joke because they do it because they’re ugly and no one likes or cares about them.” Leech said. I was so close from hitting her so hard for saying that. I rolled my eyes and walked to my seat in the back. Forget about hitting Leech, I wanted to kill her. She shouldn’t have said that, she has no idea what’s going on and why someone like me cuts.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The day didn’t get better as I wanted it to be. It got worst every second. Hannah and her little followers bothered me until I got to lunch. I couldn’t understand why they were bothering me, I didn’t do anything to Hannah’s followers. But I guess since they follow Hannah, they probably do whatever Hannah tells them to do and they listen to her every command.

I walked slowly to my locker to grab my lunch, even though I lost my appetite because I was really upset thanks to Hannah and her stupid little followers.

As I got to my locker. I grabbed my lunch, slid down my locker and sat on the tiled floor. Other kids were sitting in the hallway, but with their friends. I was alone at lunch.

“Lexi, there you are.” I heard Jayden say. He sat next to me. I looked at him. “Everything okay? I heard what Crystal (aka Leech) said to you.”

“No everything is not okay. They think cutting is a joke, but it’s far from a joke. Crystal thinks it is a joke because I do it because I’m ugly and no one cares or like me.” Jayden rested his arm on my shoulder and brought me close toward him. Kind of like he was holding me.

“You know you’re far from ugly, Lexi. Someone does care and likes you. Don’t listen to what Crystal or Hannah says, they’re just trying to break you.” I felt a tear run down my face. I was already broken when Hannah read my journal out loud. Crystal was making it a little worst because she thinks me cutting myself is a joke.

“I know, but I’m already broken.” Jayden grabbed my face and made me look at him. His green eyes were so memorizing and amazing. They look like they got lighter, like seaweed instead of forest green.

“You’re not broken, Lexi. You’re far from broken. You’re a lot stronger than you think.” Jayden lean down toward me. I licked my lips and bit my bottom lip. “You’re far from broken, Lexi.” He whispered. Please kiss me. I thought to myself.

“Hello brother.” Jayden let out a big sigh and looked away from me. I looked up and saw Hannah, Gabriel, and Hannah’s followers. Great now I want to die. “Well brother I didn’t think mom was right, but maybe she was right.”
