My heart was beating fast and my adrenaline rushed. I jumped off from the car is not a normal way. Maybe, because of the adrenaline rushed, makes me jump like that. I was about to grab a metallic tube on the corner but Andrew grabbed me and pushed me back to the car while Nick is fighting the man with a silver sword using his supernatural strength.
Andrew had taken the metallic tube from the corner and throws it to Nick. I look down at my shaking hands hesitating to use it or not. But I cannot see them fighting the man in one eye like a small giant. I glanced at them and I almost scream when Andrew was thrown to the parked red car and it got smashed.
I was about to open the door or jumped out the car but Nick had closed the convertible car with a now hood and the door is locked and the windshield is up. I knock and knock shouting them to open it but they didn't.
"Jake!" I scream when I saw him running down the stairs from the room we rented. "Go back!" I warned him but he didn't listen. He ran to me instead. When he glanced at the man his eyes dilated and jaw drops.
"F-fu-What the fuck?!" he exclaimed.
"Shit! I fucking told you to go back!" I scream at him.
My eyes widen when Nick was thrown to the big tree and the tree breaks into two. Now, the man is walking towards us. I told Jake to run away but he is damn stubborn and he positioned for defense. I rolled my eyes and sigh. When the monster lifted the silver sword Jake stepped back.
I saw the keys of the car on the ground and it accidentally stepped by Nick so the car opens. I immediately pushed the door and pull Jake before he got hit. I face the monster. I don't have a choice but to use it. I breathed a warm and lift my hand. I don't know why I feel so heat up and burning. I pushed my hand as a blue turning to red fire comes out as it hit the monster. I put down my hands and suddenly feel like I had run in miles and out of breath. I inhale, however, it is not time to rest.
I was about to blow another fire but Jake grabbed me away from the monster. I stopped and pull my hand from him.
"Hey, I know it is amazing that you got that fire-power but we are in danger—"
I didn't speak to him and turn back to the monster. The fire didn't kill him. He lifted the sword. I lift my left hand and make a big blue fireball. I throw it to his face and he growls in pain. A cold arms grapple me.
"Calm down," his voice soothes me and makes me calm down. "Hold up your fire." I did as what he said because he's hypnotizing me.
"Catastrophe!" Jake calls and my eyes dilated. I pushed Andrew and was about to attack the monster uncontrollably but it makes my eyes wider when the head of the monster got cut and it fell on the ground and rolls in front of the car.
A big thud wakes me up from shocked and his body is now lying on the ground with no head. Green is the color of his blood. I unconsciously walk towards it but someone blocked it from my sight. I look up at Nick who got green stain blood from the beast on his face.
"Cool, what is it called?" Andrew asked.
"Half human-half Cyclopes." Nick answers. I look down on the head of the hybrid monster and it is quickly decaying into ashes. A warm hand scoops my cheek and I look straight into his eyes. "Nice, so you know how to use fire." He told me. "Your eyes are like fire too."
"Let me see!" Andrew sounds excited and he ran behind Nick to take a look closer to me. "Woah! That is awesome!" I blink and immediately pushed Nick. When I turn behind me Jake clutch my arm and scoop my cheek.
"We are going back to our town. This place is not safe, C," he sounds worried and afraid.
"She's safe with us," Andrew speaks. "Besides, she's not an ordinary girl, kid." Jake glared at Andrew behind me.
"Safe with you? She nearly got killed!" Jake scowl at them. I dropped my shoulder and got startled when Andrew grabbed me from Jake. He pushes me to Nick that makes me tripped and fell in his arms.
"Alright, here, buddy." Andrew makes him look into his eyes. "You never see this catastrophic scene and you left the hostel after Catastrophe dumped you. You moved on and have better sex with other girls. Now go and leave the hostel."
In a snapped he makes Jake obeyed. Jake left the hostel with his truck. And I, I am still at Nick's arms. I felt his lips kiss my temple but I am too drained to push him away. Andrew turned with a playful smile on his lips and looked at me.
"You look pale, you better take a nap for a short trip." He told me. I gently pushed Nick and walk towards the passenger seat of the car. I close the door and lean my head as I close my eyes.
I felt the closing of the door on the driver seat and suddenly, I felt his warm breath on my jaw and his scent enters my nostrils. When I open my eyes he stopped and stare at my eyes for a moment. I blink and he immediately buckled up my seatbelt.
I had fallen asleep on the travel and wake up with a warm hand on my left hand. I look down on his left hand that I just noticed that he got a tattoo that looks like infinite circles with a red dot in the middle.
"We are here," he murmurs.
I slipped my hand from him and turn on the window outside. A white staircase is waiting for us. I open the door and blinks a few times. I look around to be amazed at the garden and there's a gazebo full of vines and orchids and other kinds of crawling flowers. I was too amazed to notice that everyone are in front of me.
There are Mr. and Mrs. Patterson and their sons, Andrew and Patrick, and lastly is Nick who kissed Mrs. Patterson's cheek greeting her like his mother.
"I am grateful that you arrived safely." Mrs. Patterson said happily. I nod my head and gave a little smile which is more like a force one. She ran to me and scoop my arm as she led me or more like dragging me inside the house. "Boys, ready the foods."
"Yes, Mom." The three young men answers. I glanced at Mr. Patterson who is all staring at me. He quickly smiled at me and I just nod.
