Life is too precious to risk over silly things. But Ember's butt is a serious matter. I ran for my life as she chased me down the hall. She was fast but of course I was faster. I hope. We ran across the school and I am pretty sure she was going to kill me. You know, I don't know what they are showing these people in the Amazon class but SWEET BABY JESUS THIS GIRL WAS A DAM BOUNTY HUNTER!!! Ha ha, dam bounty hunter. Percy Jackson joke. She soon caught up to me and tackled me. I laughed and she growled. I stroked her hair and kissed her softly. She smiled at that even though she kept trying to be grumpy. I walked with her to our room since it was time to sleep.
Merci and Steel were already there. They were in their pajamas sharing a bed fast asleep. He had his arms around her tight and kept his head on her shoulder. I changed into my pajamas in the bathroom and when I got out, she took her chance to change.
She crawled into my bed and I got into my sleeping bag on the floor. She looked down from her bunkbed. "If you want, you can join me." She said completely red faced.
I smiled. "I'm alright down here. My honeysuckle needs room to sleep."
She threw a pillow at my face and I chuckled and used it to sleep. I slept calmly into the night.
It was 2 in the morning and I heard people passing by my room. I slipped on my sneakers and waited for them to walk away. I grabbed a pencil and a few papers. I sneaked out and followed the voices. I passed through a hallway down to where they were. I grew uneasy to realize they were going somewhere I've never been before. They stopped by an old room I've never seen before. I narrowed my eyes and listened through the door.
"Is everything in motion?"
"Yes, Lucinda."
"Perfect. It'll a be a bloody accident."
"Yes, Lucinda." One guy complained. Must be the blonde dude.
"Hide your face. We have to keep our identities hidden. Those pains might want to interfere or go snooping."
"I know. Just like the one outside our door."
My eyes widened. I began to run and I heard the door open. They threw a net over me. I began to yell for help but they put duct tape over my mouth and dragged me into the room. They threw me onto the ground. I fought them and struggled.
Lucinda growled at me. "I'll be so glad exterminating you."
I looked around but everyone else was wearing their mask. I glared at her. She smirked happily at my helplessness.
"I want you to do something for me." She said gladly.
I wanted to say that I'd prefer to bite off my foot but the duct tape kept me from speaking so I struggled and shook my head. I felt someone kick me from behind and yelled under the duct tape.
I felt her pull my hair and make me look her in the eye. I squinted my eyes and glared at her. "You are going to obey."
I wanted to laugh. Marlo Garcia obeys no one.
"If you don't, I will make sure ALL your friends pay the price for you. I can report them to the Phoenix Guild for hiding your incident with the dragon." She smirked.
My eyes widened. I felt my heart ache at that. The Phoenix Guild is a council full of powerful assassins of many kinds. Some are compassionate and wonderful people but many are assholes who feed off the joy of others the way Lucinda does with my friends. They are dangerous people who won't think twice of killing you. Honestly, in my opinion, they are a bunch of jerks sitting on high pedestals bossing people around.
