Chapter 25 - Sounds In The Shadows | Chapter 25

Aaron looks down at Winter in Renesmae's arms. "Well, why don't you have a baby?" She looks up at "I can't...My sister took that away from me to keep me safe." Dante looks at Renesmae "Took it away from you?" She stands up with Winter and gives her to Rose. "Yeah she did but it was to make sure nothing would happen to me. If I was to give birth to someone who isn't like me then I would die because of the hybrid mix." Dante looks at her knowing he is mad. Renesmae looks at Rose and Aaron "Halloween is tomorrow, What are you guys going to be doing?" Aaron looks down at Winter "Yeaaa, What are we going to do daddy?" She says as she hugs Aaron's leg "Well I don't know yet" Rose looks over at everyone "Come on inside it's getting dark" Rose picks Winter up and walks towards the house Aaron, Renesmae, and Dante go into the house as well. Rose puts Winter in her bed and closes the door and takes Renesemae and Dante to a room with two beds. "One bed per person y'all," she says as she shuts the door and goes downstairs with Aaron. Renesmae looks at Dante and gets on the dark purple-colored bed, As Dante gets on the dark red one. Dante sits on the bed and hangs his coat on a hook next to his bed. With Renesmae's back pointing towards his bed, he looks at her as he starts to cry and whimper. Dante was never the kind of man to cry but he felt broken on the inside. He lays down and puts his back towards Renesmae. Renesmae hears him whimpering and crying. She turns over to look at him and asks "Are you okay?" Dante says "I'm fine. I just need some time to think right now". She looks over at him "You don't need to think about it too much, Thinking kills the "human" mind." She says as she lays back to go to sleep. Dante says "Yes it does kill the human brain, but I'm far from human, I've killed too much to be a human. I've killed millions of demons, I've fought both my uncles and killed one in the process." Renesmae looks at him knowing he is in pain "If I knew you well enough I would cuddle you but I don't, I'm sorry" She looks down at her bed then out the window her eyes turn a light brown as she looks around outside. Dante asks her, "Do you recognize me at all? If not just picture me with brown hair instead of white. I'm sure you'll recognize me then." She looks over at him "I don't mean to be rude but I don't remember you at all, I'm sorry" She says as she walks over to him and runs her hands through his hair "I'm really sorry " Renesmae says as she walks away back to her bed. He asks her "Do you remember a man, skinny, with black hair, who wears a lot of black, gray, and red?" She looks at him "No" Dante tells her "If you ever see that man, run and hide, that man got his hands on you once and I don't want it to happen again." Renesmae looks around the room and then back at him "You mean my sister's boyfriend? Hunter, right well he is nice to me. He would let me have my sister's powers back when he wasn't around. He was good to me and her" "You mean Hunter Ledger? That's the man that shot you in the stomach. The man that killed you. And our baby." She looks at him confused. "No, I think you are thinking of someone else. He would never hurt me" Dante says "Hunter Ledger is a dangerous man. He kidnapped you four years ago after he found out who I was. He wanted to get to me and Aaron. That scar on your stomach I want you to look at it. After that I want you to think as hard as possible and try to remember. I can give you your memories but it's going to take a long time and I'm going to need a power source but I won't unless you want to." She stops looking at him as she looks at the dark corner she runs over to Dante and hides in his arms "Don't let him hurt me please" She looks back over to the corner "I don't like phantoms" Dante grabs Ebony and asks "What the hell is a phantom? Where is it?" She looks at him "No don't leave me, It will hurt me!" She yells as she hides under the covers. Dante asks her "Where is it I can't see it. How do I see it." He puts up Ebony and grabs Rebellion. She mumbles "Of course, you can't see it" Dante gets up and walks to the dark corner. He looks carefully as he feels something grab his arm. He swings Rebellion out in front of him and he sees a dark mist explode and hears a screech. "What in the fuck was that?" He asks. Rensemae peaks out from underneath the covers "It's a phantom" "What does it want with you?" He asks. "I don't know anymore.." she says as she pulls the covers down "I'm still scared" Dante gets back in bed and holds on to her telling her "It's okay. It's gone now." She sniffles as she drifts off to sleep. Around 3 in the morning Renesemae wakes Dante up screaming in her sleep but he can't wake her up. Dante tries to wake her up. "Renesmae wake up what the fuck is going on! Wake the fuck up!" Aaron hears her scream and runs into their room "Oh shit" Aaron picks her up and takes her outside and drops her in the lake. Dante yells "What the fuck Aaron! Why the fuck are you throwing her in the lake what the fuck is that supposed to do!?" She pops back up at the top of the water in a ball of smoke and lands on the dock passed out "See she's fine" Dante runs to her and shakes her awake. "Renesmae are you okay?!" Aaron looks at Dante and then back at Renesmae "She's fine, Don't worry about it" Dante says "How the fuck do you know if she's okay?" Aaron rolls his eyes and walks back into the house. Renesmae sits up "God my head hurts" Dante looks at her and hugs her and says "Thank God you're okay. What happened?" Renesmae looks at him "I don't know but please get off of me" Dante helps her up and lets go of her. He doesn't say anything but thinks about what could've happened to cause the screaming. Renesmae gets back in her bed and sleeps for 3 days in a row.
