Creatures of Eviood High - The School of Good and Evil (#1)

12. We're Coming!

Gavin POV

Today's the day.
Everyone was up early, and most of us are patrolling the hallway. Our dress wear is jeans, t-shirts and sliver chest and thigh armour, unlike the destroyers scrappy copper ones.
They are coming, and tonight might be my last night alive.
"Gavin."
I groan and turn around to Tony.
Is he one of her mates?
I quickly grab his wrist and look at it.
"What the f--"
"Never mind" I say, dropping his arms.
He's not her mate.
I am so happy I might jump up and down in total excitement.
I won't, but I want to.
"Here."
Tony gives me a bracelet.
"A bracelet, really?"
"It's a good luck charm made form
the ancestors of Avana, the great witch."
I nod and walk away from him. I look at the stupid bracelet.
It's a black cord beaded with blue crystal like beads, and a silver charm which is two daggers crossed over a heart with two dove wings spread out behind--
Wait......my mark?
I reluctantly look down at my wrist.
Yep, the same.
Does he know? Oh God no, if he knows, he might try to kill me cause he wants to be her mate.
But she can't. He hasn't got the mark.
I grin to myself.
Ohhh Ha-ppy days.
Ohhh ha-ppy days.
Am I seriously singing in my head? Oh hell, I probably have brain damage or something as equally frightening.
Kat runs up behind me.
"Heeeeeeeeyyyyyyy!" she smiles.
Gish, the longest word she has ever said.
Gish? Damn, this is getting to me.
"Yooooouuu Okkkaaaayyy?" she asks, rocking on her heels.
I raise an eyebrow.
"What's with the looooonnnngggg words?" I ask, laughing.
"Weeeeelll, I found.....o-out that.....I can t-talk e-easier" she grins.
"Okay" I say under my breath. "And yes, I am fine."
Her lids turn to slits and she pouts.
"Don't believe.....yooooooouuuu."
I sigh, throwing my hands up.
"Okay Flame girl."
"Flame....g-girl?"
"Yeah, cool ain't it?"
"Oh....n-now I'm c-calling you lover boy" she smirks.
"That's not funny."
"Either is....f-flame girl."
"OH NICKNAMES!" calls Scar, running over to us. "Mind is called super-warrior-badass-vampire-ninja-smart-princess who has the force!"
We stare at her like she just killed the president.
"With the force?" I ask.
She giggles with excitement.
"Ye-hu. I have....the FORCE! I'm a Jedi master now and you are my padawan."
She points a finger to her toes.
"Kiss my toes!" she commands.
I laugh.
"I don't believe--"
With a thrust of her hand, she hurdles me to the wall and holds me there.
"See?"
"Okay! ok! ok! put me down!" I yell, but I can't help laughing.
She puts me down and I trip over my own feet and face plant onto the ground.
They both laugh.
It sounds weird, like a choir missing the lead singer, or the soloist who performs the mid solo. Like--
"Gavin, stop fading out and get up!" laughs Scar, helping me up.
I think I'm going to go insane.
"AAAAHHHH!"
Me and Scar whip our heads around to Kat who is being struck by white....lightning?
Her back is arched in the air and her painful screams make my ears nearly bleed.
"KAT!" I shout.
The lightning disappears and she is left hovering in the air. Her hair slowly dances around her as if she were underwater. The plain red t-shirt and jeans are slightly whipping around in slow motion.
Her eyes open up but they aren't red, or even white.
They are an endless ditch of black.
"Creatures of Eviood High" booms a beautiful, high pitch female voice, one I don't recognise. "I warn you, the Destroyers are coming to claim what they think is theirs! Don't be fooled and don't feel guilt for slaying them. They are mindless and heartless creatures made from the depths of good and evil. The Pure One will decide on all your fates.
The thirteenth Powerist of the time,
shall have to save, or commit a crime,
Decide to go good, the bad will die,
Decide to go bad, the good will comply,
The next sinister moon on the Thirteenths life,
She will have to choose,
One side must lose,
Eneverà Edtalarife' Which means;
Fate is in her hands.
I am truly sorry for the fate most of you must suffer, and when she finally chooses her soul mate, she will become unstoppable." The floating, (now I realise) possessed Kat looks down at me and nods before her eyes turn white and she is dropped to the ground.
Me and scar rush to her.
"OH NO!" squeals Scar.
I lift Kat up into my arms.
"Kat" I whisper. "Kat?"
Her eyes slowly flicker open to that bright red.
"What happened?" she asks.
Ok, talking normally here.
"You....never mind."
I stand up and help up Kat.
"Let's go to the south, I think--"
"I'll go to the Earthies" Scar interrupts me.
I nod and she walks away.
