Chapter 12. [Danny’s P.O.V]
I glanced over Angela’s head to check up on Dylan. My eyes widened as I spotted Charlie running right towards the middle of the fight. Dylan and Will were charging at each other, growling and cussing. They were going to hit her.
Without hesitating, I pushed Angela away from me. She grunted, annoyed. I ignored her and began to sprint towards Charlie. As I ran, I changed into my demon form. Harsh wind took hold all around me, but it died a few seconds later. I was right next to Charlie in a matter of seconds. She was standing between Dylan and Will, her arms spread out as if her puny toothpick-limbs would stop two pissed immortals. I glanced pleadingly to Dylan and Will. They noticed Charlie, and their angry expressions twisted into ones of horror. It was too late for them to stop. They were going too fast. Just before they made contact with Charlie, I launched into a dive that would put any baseball player to shame.
My body took the majority of the impact, which was good. I could recover in a day or two, but the pain was unbearable. I felt both of my sides get serious damage as I scented my own blood. I concentrated on the pain, trying to determine the extent of damage, so far: a few broken ribs and various gashes along my arms and legs. I grunted as the level of pain I was enduring spiked. I eventually fell to the ground, with Charlie still in my arms. I set her aside. She seemed dazed by the way she was looking around the park. Charlie smiled slightly before passing out. I got up suddenly, ignoring the pain, and picked her up.
“Charlie?” I whispered nervously. She was bleeding out of two identical wounds on both of her sides. They looked deep, but were the only serious wounds. I bent over her and placed my ear against her chest. I sighed in relief when I heard her even breathing and regulating heartbeat.
I glanced over to Dylan and Will. They were both lying on the ground, their eyes wide with shock. Will was the first one to recover as he rose and walked unsteadily to my side, leaving a trail of blood in his wake. I glared at him.
“Is she alright?” Will asked, ignoring my expression. I would kill him right now if Charlie wasn’t injured. He reached over with his good arm and was about to touch Charlie, when I growled and pulled her away. He chuckled lightly, but was cut off as he began to cough up blood.
“What’s wrong, Danny? Not too happy to see me? C’mon! We’re family! We need to stick together…” Will taunted, wiping blood away from his mouth.
“Why have you come to the human world?” I growled.
“Well, I came to get the demon prince, of course,” he replied nonchalantly.
“As you must know, the war is coming, Danny… It will start about two years from now…in our world, where we belong…so you need to begin your training… I can smell the weakness in you,” he hissed. I looked down at Charlie. How can I leave you here alone? I can’t do that to you, Charlie.
Dylan limped to my other side. He was in worse condition. Dylan kept his face calm, but you could tell that he was in serious pain. When he was about a foot away, I stopped him. His eyes flickered bloody red when he saw Charlie’s crumpled form.
“Stay where you are, Dylan,” I ordered. He glared at me for a second.
“I can handle it,” he stated. I shook my head. Dylan hissed angrily.
“You should really stop acting so tough, vampire,” Will laughed.
“Shut the hell up, demon, I will kill you some day,” Dylan hissed again. The two began to shout and cuss at each other. I walked away, carrying Charlie with me. They can fight all they want. I will be the one to kill Will. Not Dylan. I strolled over to Angela, making sure that I was about a foot away. I can’t have Dylan or Angela near Charlie…they might be tempted.
“Is she all right?” Angela asked politely, feigning concern.
“I’m not sure…” I muttered before walking past her. I stopped at the park entrance, impatiently waiting for them.
“Let’s go!” I called before swiftly exiting the park. I had to get Charlie somewhere safe.
A few minutes later, the five of us arrived in front of my house. When we were inside, I immediately told Angela and Dylan to leave. They wouldn’t be any help when Charlie was still bleeding.
“But everyone is bleeding, and you don’t see me attacking anyone!” Dylan protested.
“Yeah, but I know you’re thirsty… I’m not going to take any chances of you killing Charlie,” I answered him sternly.
“I’m not going to kill her! I would never!” he hissed furiously. I ignored him and let Angela drag him out. It was only me and Will now. I stiffened.
“Get me the first-aid kit,” I ordered. He nodded once and then disappeared. He came back seconds later with the white box. I took it from him and began to clean up Charlie, with Will watching intently.
“You do know that you’re going to have to go back to our world eventually…” Will commented as I cleaned one of the wounds on Charlie’s side.
“Yes, I know,” I replied.
“Then why are you wasting time? You need to train!” Will narrowed his eyes. I glared at him.
“I’m not leaving Charlie here alone,” I muttered firmly.
“She will be fine with me.”
“No! You’re not to go near her ever again!”
“I can do as I please!” Will hissed mutinously.
“I’ll kill you…”
“I’d like to see you try.”
“You’re just lucky that I’m not killing you right now, for what you did to Charlie…” I growled. Will looked at her worriedly.
“I’m sorry. I tried to stop when I saw her come between me and Dylan, but I couldn’t…” he murmured softly.
“I’m not talking about that,” I gritted my teeth as my temper rose.
“What did I do then?” he questioned innocently.
“You kissed her!” I finished cleaning Charlie’s wounds and I now began to bandage her. My hands began to shake unsteadily as I struggled to control my anger.
Will was silent. He leaned against a nearby wall and looked at Charlie.
After a while, he said. “So? What does it matter to you?”
I clenched my jaw. Why does it matter to me? Why am I acting like this just because he kissed her?
“You and that vampire seem to be very content with one another…so why should you care if I kissed Charlie?” he added smugly.
“Because I am not going to sit back and watch you take away Charlie!” I shouted. I can’t let Charlie be with the one person I hate. Will smirked.
“And what if she wants to be with me?” he asked thoughtfully.
“She will never want that! How could she fall in love with a monster like you?” I hissed, glaring at him.
“And who’s to say that you’re not also a monster?” Will smiled.
I was at a loss. I am a monster, but the things that Will has done…it makes me look like a saint. I sighed heavily. There was no point in arguing with Will when I needed to have all my attention on helping Charlie.
I finished bandaging Charlie, and I stood up. My body ached something awful. I looked over at Will. He was still bloody, but most of his wounds had already healed. I was about to pick up Charlie, when Will shoved past me and picked her up instead. I growled. He smiled sweetly at me. Will took Charlie gently and walked out of the room. We walked to the main entrance of the house. I muttered a string of profanities pertaining to my cousin. He only acted as if he hadn’t heard me. Dylan was waiting there. Some of his wounds were healing. Angela sat on a chair far away from us. She looked out of the window thoughtfully.
“Is she all right?” Dylan asked us anxiously. Will nodded his head and then turned to me.
“Where would be a safe place to put her?” he questioned. I didn’t answer him; instead I spread my arms out, gesturing for him to hand her over. Will refused, waiting patiently for my answer. I sighed heavily.
“Put her in my room,” I muttered. Will nodded and disappeared.
Dylan glared at me. I gave him a confused look.
“What the hell, vampire?” I asked crossly.
“Should we really let that demon in here?” Dylan questioned with a wary look in his eyes.
I shrugged. “Will seems to be one of our allies—for now. He intends to bring me back to the realm of the immortals,” Dylan nodded, as if he had already predicted that.
“And when are you going to come back to our world?” he asked, looking a bit annoyed. I didn’t answer him.
Will appeared a few seconds later. “Your room is disgusting. I put her safely in one of your vacant, much cleaner rooms.” I was just about to say something to him when Angela came from behind me and wrapped her arms around my waist.
“Lets all go to the living room. We need to discuss some things,” she said softly. We all nodded and headed to my living room. I sat on top of an old cushioned rocking chair while Dylan and Will sat on my long, black leather couch. They sat at opposite ends. Angela sat on my lap.
“When are you going to go back to our world?” she asked, getting straight to the point. I thought about it for a minute. Will and Dylan both rolled their eyes.
“I will return to the other world some time soon—for the war—but for now, I do not wish to return there anytime soon,” I replied. Angela nodded her head in understanding. Will and Dylan, on the hand…
They shot off of the couch in uncanny unison. “But what about the training?” Dylan and Will shouted at the same time. They turned to each other, surprised, before glaring at the other and slumping back onto the couch, facing away at opposite directions.
Angela smiled at their childish behavior and then turned back to me. “And so how are we going to fit the training in? We don’t have much time…you and Dylan both need some more training,” she said thoughtfully.
I studied her face. She was so beautiful. “Well, I guess that we’re going to have to train here until the war begins.”
“Oh yes, Danny, brilliant idea, and where do you expect to train? We can’t be running around, throwing each other about when humans are around,” Will retorted.
“Um…” I was at a loss, again. I hadn’t thought about that part.
“We will train in Saint Judith’s park!” Dylan grinned enthusiastically. I nodded.
“Yes! No one ever goes there! It will be perfect!” I shouted, feeling relieved. I didn’t need to leave Charlie… yet…
“And what about the human?” Angela asked, looking away.
“Charlie will probably end up coming along with us…she knows everything,” Dylan replied with some left over enthusiasm.
“Yeah…she knows everything,” Angela spat sourly. Everyone looked at her. She got off of me and began to slowly walk away. Her back was to us.
“Do you guys honestly trust a human with our secret? What if she runs off as soon as we turn our backs, and tells everyone what we are?” she hissed, still with her back to us.
“What will happen if she tells people that Dylan and I are vampires and Danny and Will are demons?” she continued. She turned around then. Her eyes were angry.
“Charlie won’t do that,” I stated simply.
“Yeah, Danny is right…and even if Charlie would do that, who the hell would believe her?” Dylan smirked. Will nodded. Angela grunted and sat down on the edge of the couch, next to Dylan. She crossed her arms and sighed heavily.
I got up and walked towards her. I grabbed her hands. She refused to look at me. “Angela…” I murmured softly. Angela reluctantly met my gaze.
“Nothing will happen. You worry too much,” I smiled soothingly as I bent down and kissed her soft lips. I pulled away to read her expression. She smiled up at me. Angela got up and wrapped her arms around me. She began to kiss me passionately. I chuckled lightly against her mouth and began to kiss her deeply.
“Get a room!” both Will and Dylan protested. Angela and I pulled apart, unsatisfied, and glared at Will and Dylan. They weren’t staring at us. They were glaring at each other. And then, we heard a sneeze.
“What the hell was that?” Dylan asked, alarmed, as he got up and narrowed his eyes, searching the room.
“Do you think that Charlie woke up already?” Will asked as he began to walk towards the staircase.
Angela shook her head. “No. This scent is different from hers…”
“Someone is in here?” I muttered darkly as I began to look around the place.
Dylan’s eyes widened in pure panic. “Oh god…”
Will and I turned to him. “What is it?”
Dylan looked down at the floor. “I know this scent…it… It belongs to Jacky,” he gasped. I froze.
“Who the hell is Jacky?” Will snorted. I ignored him, and began to panic. What if she heard us talking?
And then, Jacky came tumbling out of the coat closet that was at the right end of the living room. We all stiffened and stared at her. Jacky looked up at us with wide, frightened eyes. She sat up and put her arms in front of her face.
“I’m sorry! Please don’t kill me!” she cried.
