«We Could Be Legends»

“How could I forget?” Bleddyn chirped more brightly. She waggled her eyebrows at her cousin with feigned horror at being embraced so forwardly. “The lightning burns on your roof always betrayed who’d been a rebellious little pest.”
The michievious sparkle in her eyes faded as she reminisced further and a sad little smile pulled at her mouth. “But, yeah, all of us knew when Aunt Tayn was up or down.”

Alice smiled gently, "Look." She said turning her own face toward the window. "It's sunny. She isn't sad anymore. So let's try to be happy too."

Wolfram watched her go, shaken and comforted at the same time. "Mom? Proud of me?" He whispered to the empty room, feeling as though Brisa had swept the life from it. He shook his head, staring at the wolf shaped necklace lying in the box. "As if."


After finishing dragging his stuff out into his car, he changed into a clean pair of jeans, a black long sleeve shirt and a dark gray sweatshirt, throwing his bloody and shredded clothes into the trash.
He pulled the hood of the sweatshirt over his bruised face, lifting the last box, his phone buzzing repeatedly in his pocket. He stared at the empty apartment, sighing. He turned, heading outside quickly. He threw the last box in the back seat, digging his keys from his pocket as he got in the car. Starting the engine, he forcefully snatched the seatbelt, buckling it. He pulled his phone out, answering Lily's call. "Lily what is it?!" He snarled, pulling out of the driveway. "I don't want to talk to you!"
"Wolf, listen will you? Why can't we talk? Meet up somewhere maybe? What is it, is there...is there someone else?"
Wolfram was silent, pulling into Jessi's driveway not far away.
"Wolfram, answer me. Is there someone else?"
After moments of silence, he finally spoke. "No." He croaked softly. "But I don't want to be with you either Lily. I can't trust you." He got out of the car, ending the call as he walked up the steps into Jessi's house, pulling the hood off his head as he walked inside. Bleddyn and Alice had awoken, but Camilla was silent, sleeping. He avoided Bleddyn's gaze, staring at the ground. "Morning." He mumbled to the two girls.

Alice turned her gaze to him and smiled, "Hey." Then she frowned. "Wait where were you? Didn't you stay here last night?"

Alice turned her gaze to him and smiled, "Hey." Then she frowned. "Wait where were you? Didn't you stay here last night?"

"I stayed here, but I went over to my moms....Er what was my moms....apartment and got whatever was left of my stuff." Wolfram replied dully, throwing his phone onto the couch as he sat down. It buzzed to life as Lily flooded it with text messages, beeping repeatedly. He let out a snarl, picking up the phone and quickly blocking her number. "Maybe she'll leave me alone now." He hissed softly.

Brisa headed briskly toward school, hiding her hoverboard under the bushes just out of sight so that it wouldn’t get stolen or mysteriously destroyed, and walking up to and through the front doors. She determinedly walked into her classroom and took a seat at the back of the room, setting down her backpack and getting out her English book, then glancing around to see if anyone she knew was there yet. Nope. No one’s here. The teacher wasn’t there either, thankfully, as she was a minute late. She sighed and rested her head on her hands, closing her eyes and letting her almost-dry hair fall around her face.

(I’m homeschooled, so I don’t know what public schools are really like, so sorry for the upcoming mistakes, guys...)

Not long after sitting down a large crowd of chattering teens poured into the room, some of the more quiet kids carefully stuffing their bags under their desks, others tossing them haphazardly in the walkway next to their seat. Snipets of conversation escaped the overwheming noise. Something about Lucy and her sister getting in trouble over the weekend seemed to be the secondary topic of converstion, the winner being the teachers late and speculation on the reason behind it.

Fritz sprinted in and promptly fell on his face. Ow... He hoped that everyone was too busy chattering to have noticed... Nope. All attention was on him now. Great. He made his way to the back of the classroom and sat at his desk.

Peter walked into his first period class, trying to slide into his seat as quietly as possible. He stared carefully at his desk, rubbing the pencil marks on it until they smudged. His eyes leapt from the desk at the sudden commotion, but quickly went back down, not noticing Fritz's fall.

Jessi bolted into the classrooms and took a seat in the back. She smiled and waived at Brisa, and looked over at Fritz when he fell down. "You okay?" She asked him quietly. She looked out the classroom door and saw Toby walking past with lots of cleaning supplies.

Zion shifted slowly and opened his eyes. He took in a deep breath and exhaled. Making little to no noise as he sat up and propped his back against the wall, he scanned the room and ran his fingers through his greasy hair. Resting his hand on his knee he closed his eyes for a moment trying to process everything from the past few days. "Am I really home? Do I seriously have school today?"He murmured while holding his face in his hands. He stood up and walked silently to his parent's room, he looked at the clock as he did and it read 6:00 am. Slowly turning the knob of the door he cracked open the door and peeked in at his parents. He could see the gradual up and down motion of their sides as they slept. Misty had her head buried in Gage's chest underneath the blankets and Gage had his arms around her with his forehead was on the back of her neck. Zion took a step back and closed the door quietly so he wouldn't wake them. He pressed his back against the now closed door and sighed, all the info running through his hand from just last night. He decided if he was better if he did something while he thought so he walked to the entrance of his room, pulled off his shirt and entered his bathroom to take a shower.

I stepped out of the shower and looked at my face in the mirror. Immediately I grabbed my foundation and started to begin painting my face with my makeup. Everything from last night ran through my head like a stampede. Are people going to start dropping like flies after Tayn and Thomas? Will Mom and Dad die? With Aunt River die? Will any of the other teens die?
I shook the thoughts from my head and looked at myself again, growling at my ugly face. "Do the adults really expect us to revert right back to our normal schedules after all this?"
I said aloud. I sighed and continued to put on makeup until I was satisfied with it then stepped out of my steamy warm bathroom to put on clothes.

"Yeah, I'm fine.", Fritz said and smiled meekly. He peered up to see that the teacher still wasn't there. "Where do you think *insert teacher's name* is?"

"I don't know." Jessi replied, looking around. She sighed. "I wish I could've skipped school today, but if I miss any more days I'm going to get suspended, or worse, expelled." She said.
