Chapter 17 - Emma (1)

I woke up and decided to go check on Olivia when all of a sudden I got tackled and someone took a coin out of my pocket, I grabbed them before they could get away, "Nox give me the coin."

they looked at me with puppy dog eyes,

"But It's shiny."

it was impossible to resist those eyes so I continued on but I felt lighter, I checked my pockets and noticed my whole purse was gone, I'll get it back when I get back, I walked down the path towards Amanda's house doing a dancey type of walk, I went up to the door and knocked but no one answered, so I knocked again and there was still no answer, I slowly opened the door to see olivia's pod empty I walked in and something red slipped out but I didn't catch what it was, I walked over to the liv's pod and looked at it, there was a crack. where's amanda? I looked around and saw Amanda sitting down, crying, whispering to herself that she was all alone over and over again, I went over and talked to Olivia. "what happened and how are you awake so early?"

"Amanda used an awakening spell on me and summoned a blood demon, I don't know what she saw though to put her in this state, she won't even respond to me." she reached her hand out to Amanda but Amanda snapped, "you aren't real, Liv is dead, I saw it with my own eyes, you fucking faker." she started to cast a spell but Liv just cast a sleep spell on her and neutralised her. "we should find a way to help Amanda, I think she saw some pretty messed up stuff and I don't think she's going to get over it any time soon." She brushed Amanda's hair to the the side revealing her scars. "is that what Isabella did after I died?"

"yeah, it was originally why I was so intent on killing her. poor Amanda can't catch a break, she's had so much horrible stuff happen to her over the past week."

I took out a magic neutralising spell tag and put it on Amanda, preventing her from using magic until it was removed.

"just incase she tries to attack you again when she wakes up."

"thanks, I don't want to have a fireball shot at me the second she wakes up."

I then left the house, leaving Olivia alone with Amanda and headed back home to find Nox so I can get my money back, I climbed up a few trees before I noticed Nox in the distance, I ran over to them and tackled them, "where's the money you thieving raccoon."

"I don't have your money."

"don't lie to me Nox, I know you hide your shiny stuff somewhere so if you don't want me to go looking for where you hide all your stuff and steal it for myself then you should just give me my money"

"Fine here's your coins, now can you please get off of me."

I got off of Nox and kept an eye on them to make sure they didn't steal anything and I kept watching them until I knew I was safe. I then went to bed with my teddy bear and hugged it.
