Chereads / THE NEPHILLIM Book I / Chapter 4 - a ride With Bonnie

Chapter 4 - a ride With Bonnie

I wake up and find myself in a dark room tied to a chair...

"Hello! Somebody help!!" I said as I struggle to free myself.

I hear a strange voice that sounds just exactly like mine.

"I wouldn't do that" he said.

I look around but I don't see anyone

"Who said that? Show yourself!"

I suddenly see someone who looks exactly like me appear in front of me.

"Hello Tyson."

"What? Who are you!? Shape shifting demon!"

He laughs mysteriously " I'm you"

"What do you mean you're me?" I asked curiously.

He slowly walks around me as he speaks " I guess you can call me the vessel"

He strangles me from the back as he laughs out loud...

" Urk! No!..." I'm dying.

History Class

I wake up breathing heavily and gasping for air...

"Are you alright?" Bonnie asked.

I take a deep breath and let out a long sigh " yeah I'm fine, just a bad dream. "

I notice the history teacher hasn't arrived yet.  " no Miss Watts?"

"Nahhh, and it's thirty minutes till break."

I pack my books into my bag.  " great cause I'm outta here"

It's been a month since my encounter with the demon, Liz and I persuaded dad to stay. As for Bethel, no one has seen or heard from her.

Her friends claim they don't recognize or know her, it's like she never existed. I had gotten closer to Bonnie and also joined the basketball team, hoping everything will finally be normal and peaceful.

Name: Bonnie Woods

"Where you going?" Bonnie asked.

"Nowhere " i said as I leave the class

"Wait up!" She packs her books then goes after me.  "hey! Wait up!"

"What?" I asked.

"I wanna tag along🙂."

"Uhhh hell no..."

"Why not?"

"Ummmn, cause..." I couldn't find any solid excuse.

"I'll be cool, I promise" she said with a smile.

"Fine, c'mon."

Bonnie and i sneak out of school...

"Wow, is this yours?" Bonnie asked as she admires the car #Ford Mustang#

"Yeah, get in."

Bonnie gets in excitedly.

Ten minutes later...

" I don't hate cats but they do creep me out" Bonnie said.

"You look like one."

"Awwwnnn, is that a compliment? " She said with a sweet voice while making a silly face

"More like a fact" i replied with a straight face.

" You're such a meanie" she places her left hand under her chin as she looks out the window.

I look at her.  "yeah it's a compliment."

She smiles "thanks"

My phone rings and I couldn't believe my eyes when I see the name beeping me, it's Bethel. I ignore the call and quickly turn off my phone.

"Why didn't you get that?" Bonnie asked.

"No reason."

"Might be important" she said.

"It's not" I replied.

A Ferrari car pulls up beside my car waiting for the traffic light to turn green.

"Hey! Nice ride. " the owner of the Ferrari said .

"Thanks" i replied.

"Hey cutie, he your boyfriend?" The other guy sitting next to the driver asked Bonnie.

"Nope, popping the p. " she said as she blushed .

"Wanna race?" The driver asked.

"No." i replied

"C'mon bro, it's a clear path..." The other guy said.

" No." I replied

"What's the point of having a wheel like this if you ain't gonna use it?" The driver said.

"The traffic light's yellow, what's your call??" The other asked.

"Give it up Brad, he's a pussy.  I wouldn't wanna race me either and I certainly wouldn't wanna lose in front of my girlfriend." he said then laughs mockingly.

I rave the engine...

"Ty?" Bonnie places her hand on mine " don't ."

"You're such a wimp." Brad said.

The traffic light turns green...

"So long, losers. " the driver said as he speeds off.

I grab the wheel tightly as I stare at the sport car moving fast ahead...

"Scrap this." I adjus my seat, change the gear then speed off after the Ferrari "hold on tight."

"Fuck!" Bonnie holds on to her seatbelt.

"Hey Coulson... " looks at his side mirror.  " ...step on it, we got a challenge."  Brad said.

Coulson increases the gap between his car and Ty's...

"Oh no you don't. " i increase the speed  almost catching up with the Ferrari.

"Ty! There's a curve up ahead. " Bonnie said frightenly.

"I know..." I increase the speed even more.

"Slow the f**k doowwnnn!" She exclaimed.

"Yo! Coulson! Slow down, that curve's too sharp. " Brad said.

"I can see that..." Coulson slows down.

I speed pass him.

"Woah! That guy's gonna get killed!" Brad said.

Approaching the curve...

"Oh God oh God oh God " Bonnie closes her eyes.

"Hang on..." everything slows down before my eyes  making it easier to drift, I change the gear allowing the car lean on one side almost flipping over. I barely make the turn.

"Wuuuuhhhooooo!!!" I shout as I make the turn " as easy as A,B,C... " I gain balance and increase the speed even more leaving Coulson and Brad behind.

"You can open your eyes now" i said to Bonnie.

"Pull over!!!" She said as she continuously hits me.

"Woah woah, alright" i pull over.

Bonnie gets out of the car angrily...

"Hey,where you going?" I go after her "wait" I grab her hand.

"Let go of me" she said as she struggles with me but my grip is tight "what the hell's wrong with you!?" 

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you."

"Well you did,now let go off me" she tries harder to free her hand from my firm grip "let go!"

"No..."

"Why not?"

"Untill I know you're not mad at me"

Coulson and Brad pull up beside Bonnie and I...

"Yo! Dwag! That was wickedly crazy! You gotta be the craziest driver I have ever seen." Brad said excitedly.

"I gotta admit, you're something else. Here..."   Coulson gives me his card.

"Uh thanks?"I replied

"If you need anything to pimp your wheel, just call." Coulson said.

"Or if you ever wanna race" Brad said with a smile.

"See ya later" Coulson said as he drives off.

"Yeah " I turn back to Bonnie who's still mad and under my grip

" Kratsoka." I said

She frowns her face.  " what does that mean? And will you please let go off me?"

I sigh then release her hand.  " I'm sorry ".   I said with a passionate voice .

She goes back into the car trying not to smile. I take her home after a long day of cruising round town, eating and gisting. It was a special moment for both of us.

"Guess this is your stop"   i said as I pull over in front of her house.

"Yeah." she stares at me.

"What?" I asked curiously.

She gives me a brief kiss " thanks for letting me tag along."

"It's cool. " I said with a wide smile.

"Well, see ya" she pecks me before leaving.

I blush for a minute before driving off.

Ten minutes later....

"What a day, I wonder if Elizabeth had a fun day too"

"I'm sure she did" Bethel said from the passenger seat.

"Ah!" I was shocked and frightened, almost making me cause an accident. I quickly pull over " how the hell did you get in my car!?"

"Relax. You weren't picking up my calls" she replied.

"Maybe cause I don't want to have anything to do with you."

"That so?"

"No i don't, now get out of my car."

She sighs "not till after you've seen this. "    she places her hand on my forehead then her eyes glow white.

"What are you..." My eyes turn white as well.

I see a vision of me killing my family, bringing chaos to the world, going against the heavens and freeing Lucifer.

I immediately snap out of it " what the heck was that!?" I asked.

"That's what is gonna happen if Samyaza gets to you and if you refuse my help ".

"Lies! I would never hurt Liz ,what has this got to do with me?"

"It has everything to do with you, Samyaza's building an army of Demons and Nephilims to go against the heavens and at the center of it all is you"

"How?"

"If you wanna know more, ditch school tomorrow and meet me here." she tosses a card to me"    just follow the light.

"What light?" I look at the card trying to find the light. " there's nothing on..."

I look back at Bethel but she's gone.  "what the hell" I check the back seat and also look out the window.  " how does she do that? "

Home

"I'm hoome" I said but no one responds " Dad? Liz?" I said as I go upstairs to Lizzy's room but she's asleep. I kiss her before leaving but I stop at the door to take one last look at her as I remember the vision I saw and wondering if it's related to the nightmares have been having.

"Hey, you're back. Didn't hear you come in" Dad said.

"Hi Dad" I bump first with him " can we talk?"

"I was just about to make dinner but yeah I've got time to spare, let's go talk at the back" he said.

I follow him to the back to talk privately.

"What's up? I already agreed we ain't gonna move as long as you and your sister lay it low and stay out of trouble" he saidm

"Yeah, thanks for that but this is something else. Do you trust me?"

" You're my son, of course I do"

"Ok"  i sigh.  " I need you to let me go away for some couple of weeks with Bethel"

"What!? The Angel? No way, she's trouble Ty. Angels hunt Nephilims, your mother gave her life protecting you and your sister from Angels and now you just want to willingly go to one? I don't get it." He said.

"I know dad but something's coming. Something big, and I need to be strong enough to protect you and Liz. Please just trust me on this."

He rubs his eyes with his left hand. " this is, this is gonna be tough. Are you certain this is what you want?"

"Yes Dad I'm certain"

"You remind me so much of your mother, so strong willed and driven. What about Liz?"

"She'll be fine, hopefully."

He sighs " I love you son"

" I love you too Dad" I hug him.  " I'll leave first thing in the morning, give this to Liz for me"   I give him a small box and a letter .

"Give me what?" Liz cuts in.

"Elizabeth! You're awake? How long?" I asked.

"Long enough to know you're leaving and you're going to leave without saying goodbye?" she stomps off.

"Wait! It's not what you think"

Dad stops me from going after her " I'll go talk to her, go get some rest" he said.

I let out a long sigh then nod.

" alright"

I go to my room while Jonathan goes out front to talk to Liz who's seated at the front yard. Jonathan sits beside her...

Elizabeth's POV

"Hey..." Dad said to me.

" I don't get it, why is he leaving?" I asked out of frustration and curiosity.

"It's complicated"

"What's complicated about it!? I never met mum and now he's leaving me too!?"

"He'll be back."

"What if he doesn't? " I turn to him with tears in my eyes.  "what if he doesn't?"

He hugs me " he'll be back I promise"

I cry and sob in his arms " I don't want him to go. Please! Make him stay."

"I don't want him to go either but it's his decision. I'll leave this here" he drops the box and letter beside me then leaves.

"I hate this" I bury my head in between my thighs as I cry .

Five minutes later..

I look at the letter tryna decide if I should read it or not. "F**k!" I toss it away. I pick it up after a while then go to my room.

The next morning...

Tyson's POV

I knock on Lizzy's door, wanting to see her before I leave but she doesn't respond. "I'm sorry".  i rest my head on her door as I talk with a regretful manner.  " I never wanted this kinda life. I just wish everything could be normal but it's not."

Liz sits on the floor and rests on her door as she listens to me talk.

"I can't stand to watch you or Dad get killed because of me. And if I'm gonna stick around, I have to be strong enough to protect both of you. I'm leaving now only to be able to stay forever... I hope that makes sense to you. Goodbye for now, I love you" I wait awhile hoping to hear her voice but she doesn't say anything.

I head outside, I see my dad helping me arrange my stuffs in the back seat " She'll be fine, give her some time" he said.

" I know dad😩"

"Here, I want you to have this" he gives me a book.

"Dad, this is your book of protection spells that mom gave you. Why would you give me this?"

"You'll need it more than I do"

I hug him " thanks dad, take care of Elizabeth till I'm back"

" I will"

" Bye dad"

He stands in the front yard and watches me drive away.
