My Stranger - Remi Johnson (novels for teenagers .TXT) 📗

the time. He was the kind of person who wanted everyone to be happy.
He said nothing, just stared at me, analyzing me. Then he reached over and started tickling me. I tried to keep my hip steel-like until he stopped but soon I gasping and sputtering.
"Stop!" I laughed through tears.
"Better stop, Mark," Cherie warned teasingly. "She'll put a hex on you"
Mark stopped and then leaned back. "Oh,right. We were teasing a witch."
I sat up. "Yeah, I could get the Alligance to seriously kick your butt."
I'm a witch.I am apart of the Alligance, an organization of witches who worships the Volutri,a royal-like group who rules the vampires.
"Be quiet," I warned. Your not even suppose to know what I am."
We got near the Volturi tour.
We got out and quickly morphed into the crowd. Excited gasps and mutters carried through the crowd as we soon aproached the inside.
"Hello."
We all jumped and whirled to face a beautiful woman with red-blue like eyes and an alluring smile.
"Hurry up, your going to miss all the fun." She shoed us into the museum.
"This is so exciting," Cherie whispered as she looked around. We were in a hallway that show pictures of volterra. I skimmed the pictures of gray and black and tried to look at something intresting.
I came closer, it showed a picture of three ancient men with bored, serious looks. I instantly recognized them. When I was younger and in a special school learning spells and my Born Gift. The very reason why I came home with red, sore wrists form the had smack of the ruler, the people my teacher told me to bow down to, to kiss their feet if I see them.
The Volturi.
I felt my hands go numb and my heart going at rock-roll beat.
Vampires.
I couldn't believe how stupid I was. I thought Felix belonged to a wanna be Volturi of vampires that were no threat not the real deal.
I grabbed Cherie and pulled her too me. She looked at me, startled.
C, we have to go,

I thought telepathically to her. It was one of the minor powers I had besides my Gift.
"Why?" she asked. I looked hastily at the door we were about to approach. The dreaded door that decided my friends fate.
I think I got the Volturi with the ones that people don't come back from confused with this one.

"How do you know?" she asked, her expression angry, confused and fearful.
I thought to her about my red sore ankles from the ruler that hated. The reasons why they were there.
Her beautiful green eyes widen like saucers as she grabbed Mark. "Mark," she said hastily, we have to go."
"Not now, C, we about to go through the doors." He stated, pushing her hands off his shoulders in order to clutch them with his own hands.
I look up, my blood draining as we approached the doors.
Two men were holding them open. The one on the right had brown hair and looked about he was 15 years old but I knew better. This was Alec who had the power to block off senses. The Alligance girls were especially fearful of them because we need our senses as witches and Jane wasn't so pleasant either.
The one on the left had black hair and ruby eyes that were excited. This one I knew to be Demetri, he had the power to track people. This one was the in that I had to look out for in order to save my friends.
We went through the door, I heard the tour guides voice boom extra loud in the big, spacey rooms that we used to paint in art class.
Cherie was grabbing my arm, draining the blood even more. I could here her heart beat loudly. Show time.
"Now here is the best part, Ladies and gentlemen" She paused dramatically before letting the venom in her eyes melt the contacts.
She grinned evilly. "Time for Dinner."
Then the lights went dark. All I can see was the outline of Cherie's red hair...and the way her shoulders shook up and down as she started sobbing.
Since I am a damphir( half human half vampire) this means that I see far better than humans.
Oh, don't get me started on how jealous I was of them, they can not see the horror but I can.
I watched as Aro, Cuais and Marcus rose up.I watched how Heidi grabbed the young boy in front the line, he looked about 10 with earphones in his ear and long curly hair that came above his shoulders, I watched as she grinned down at him before lunging like the strike of a cobra at his neck.
This was horrible, I couldn't believe that we worshiped these monsters, how someday we wanted to get chosen.
I lost my train of thought as I heard Cherie's scream and I felt her hand loose my own.
No!

I thought almost animal like as I felt anger soar up into me like I hot air balloon. I dipped for her, grabbing the cold arm that dared to take my best friend, my sister

away from me.
I couldn't control the anger, I felt it swarm into me. With an enraged scream, I felt myself being taken on by the very thing that I loved but feared at the same time.
My Gift.
I ran at my opponent at full speed, I knocked him into the wall checking to see who it was.
Demetri.
I flung him across the room at a safe distance before running to the last spot Cherie was. She was gone.
"Jeana!!!!!!" I heard her scream. Please no, not her, not my kindred spirit who kept me from the brink of insanity ever since we met.
Then I could see even better.
The lights came on, and I looked around me in horror as I saw the bloody bodies that surrounded me, some of them even from school. I let out a cry when I saw Catherine, my bio partner on the floor screaming her lungs out. She was already on the brink of transformation.
I saw Cherie but not Mark. She was kneeling on the floor over a body that was squirming like crazy, Mark.
"Well, well don't we have special beings here today?" I heard Aro's voice say.
I looked up, they were in their thrones looking more royal then ever.
Cherie cried harder. "Please, please, why do this? We celebrate and obey you and you treat us like crap?' She said through her sobs.
Aro just shook his head, sighing. "You are worthless my child, I believe I made a mistake. How silly of me not see you. Oh well, Demetri has been craving something sweet, I believe this is because you are carrying a child, is that right?"
Cherie nodding, she looked so sad and hopeless, like in a horror movie when the heroine realizes that the killer killed all the people she cared about. Tears running down her face, her eyes rimmed with red. Her red, short hair straggled, I could only imagine the thoughts running through her hair.
Cauis rose suddenly. "Kill her, Felix" He said simply.
No, I can't let him kill Cherie, even if he's the love of my life. Sisters before the kissers.
I felt that anger rise in me again. This time, I couldn't control it, I felt myself begin the shake. My undertone skin turning red.
I kept it down though.Instead of bursting in flames, I dove for Felix.
He was heavy even his shoulders were buff.
I bounced back into my original spot. He picked Cherie up from her kneel, I don't think he even noticed my attack. Darn.
Cherie screamed and with that scream, I was frozen, all I could think of was how is this happening. Why can't I stop it?
I screamed. I didn't scream for Cherie, I screamed for Felix.
"Felix, don't be a monster, you know that you would have yet another murder on your name. Don't be a monster.

" I said, feeling the weight of wisdom in my tone.
Felix froze, he swiveled, along with the other vampires in the room and turned their attention to me.
"It's you..." He whispered, he dropped Cherie to the floor.
Cherie, save yourself, leave please, I DON'T WANT YOU TO DIE,

I thought to her.
I said to Felix, "Yes, Felix, you saved me, you know that you could not drink me, do it again, Felix. Save a life."
"How do you know this?" He asked, stepping towards me, interest and curiosity written on his face.
Cherie looked at me, and shook her head. God, you're so stubborn
I looked at Felix. I want to tell the truth, the witches always say its good to cleanse your soul before you die for purity.
"I am apart of This Alligance, you have heard of them. They are damphirs that purpose in life is to serve you, but I think if they saw this bloodshed, I would think they would change their minds. " I spat at him, and kicked a dead body by my feet for extra purpose.
"I lied to you, I played stupid just so you wouldn't expect anything. I'm sorry." I said.
Everything was quiet for 5 minutes.
Cauis looked at me and glared. "Then its final," he declared. "Kill the blonde one too."
I felt strangely calm as I approached Felix. I looked up at him, taking in his beautiful hair, his handsome eyes, his strong body, before kneeling to him.
To kill a damphir is the very same way you kill a vampire, crack them and fire them up.
I looked up, watching his painful eyes as he stared at me.
I gotta tell him,

I thought, as I stared in those soothing eyes that I would look at for the last time.
Felix's hand shot forward and I cringed when they grabbed my neck, pure chock position. I rose up from the ground, I felt the air cut from me and I began to panic. No! I don't want to die like this!
I heard a painful crack in the back of my neck. I was hurting like crap. Felix hands began to shake as I grabbed his wrists to try and stop him. More painful cracks began to take on new locations and it began to really hurt.
