"And you expect me to believe that the apocalypse is going to happen?" Bruce's cold eyes glared down at me.

"Oh, by all means, if you have any complaints you can take them to the gods. I'd love to see that conversation." I reply with a smirk as I walk out the door, going to grab my stuff.

"You're leaving?" Jason's voice called out from behind me.

"It's not. Well...maybe a little bit." I turn so I'm facing him. " Jaybird, I'm a hazard. Sooner or later, you will get hurt. I'd rather hurt you emotionally than physically." His expression softens   and he places his hands on my cheeks.

"I can protect my self. You won't hurt me. I love you."

Then Amelia and I were off on a quest I suppose. The rest can't. They're all either busy with school or other quests.
