Found (The Last Watcher Series) Book One (18 page)


I understand James. I
understand.” I told him, slowly coming up to him and putting my
hand on his shoulder. I stood there and watched him for a few
minutes until Kierce made a movement.


Do you mind if I have a
talk with you?” Kierce asked me. With that, I lifted my hand off of
James, and came to sit down next to Kierce.


Go ahead.” I told him.
Wanting to get all the talking out right now.


What happened in the woods…
was amazing. I have felt more at that one minute, then I have my
whole life. Surely, it hasn’t been that long, but I know enough to
tell you… that I wouldn’t trade it for the world.” I looked at
Kierce, and he looked back at me with such remorse.


I know.”


I have never, or will ever
make the wrong decision again Amabel. I want you to know
that.”


I know.” I
repeated.


Please, if I still have a
chance in this. Please, think hard on who you chose. I know Tae is
bonded to you, but I love you with all of my immortality.” This was
deeper than any other words he’s told me. I wanted to run away in
tears, but just sat here, silent, wordless. It wasn’t time for me
to decide. Not yet. I shook my head at him, and looked away towards
the trees. I could see the sun trying to get by all the leaves on
the tall trees, and at one spot, one single spot, it did. Would I
be able to get by that one little spot that’s making me so torn in
between Tae and Kierce? I hope so. I couldn’t hurt them both for
much longer.

 

A few more days have passed by and still no
sign of Tae. This wasn’t like him, at all. Every bad thought in my
mind ran by. What if fell off a cliff or what if a hunter killed
him? What if he attacked a human by accident or something stupid.
No, I couldn’t think that way. I knew he would be okay. He was
smart and strong enough to know better. He would never want to hurt
me like that. As the days went by, Kierce tried getting closer to
me, but I denied him in every way. I wanted to call him selfish to
act that way when Tae was missing. Of course though, he didn’t
think there was anything wrong. All he wanted to do was just talk
to me. Something told me otherwise. I felt Tae in danger, but
couldn’t out my finger on it.

Amabel, Amabel my
love.
It was Tae!
Oh Tae, where are you? Are you okay? You’ve been driving me
crazy! I miss you, come back to me!
I
screamed to him in my head.
I know. I’m
sorry. Meet me somewhere.
Of course I
would!
Yes, anywhere.
I told him.
Meet me at Kierce’s
aunt’s house. She’s not there, but it’s the closest place I could
think of.
That was weird, but I didn’t
second guess it.
Yes, I’ll be
there!
I screamed to him and suddenly ran
into the house to get fully dressed. Kierce and James looked
confused at my action, but watched me run around like a maniac and
didn’t ask a question.


I need to meet Tae
somewhere. Bye!” I screamed to them, and started running. I knew it
would take a while but didn’t care. I could hear Kierce and James
behind me, but didn’t think much of it. Even if they were talking
to me, I wouldn’t hear them. All I thought about was Tae and that I
would finally see him. I wanted to throw my arms around him and
slap him at the same time. I ran faster than I even knew I
could.

I could see the house now. It was the last
one at the drive way. I could feel how close I was to Tae, and
continued to run. I saw tae step out of the woods and my heart
filled with joy.


Tae!’ I screamed to him
with excitement. Something was wrong. He didn’t seem excited, or
even pleased to see me.


Amabel.” He said lightly. I
was now about to finally reach him, and Luthius walked out of the
same spot from the woods. It was a trap.


Tae, how could you?” I told
him, now fully coming to a stop. “You tricked me.”


It wasn’t my fault. I tried
so hard not to let you in. Once he realized you were trying to
contact me, he over took my mind and spoke though me. This blood
sucker has greater powers than I could have imagined.” Tae told me,
with tears rising in his eyes.


Well, well, well. Look what
we have here.” Luthius spoke.


How dare you!” I screamed
back at him.


Listen little girl. I don’t
need this, and don’t want to waste any more time playing these
games. I am going to kill this filthy lycan, if you don’t
surrender.” He gave me a choice to make. I looked deeply into Tae’s
eyes, and in a way, I knew he told me not to. This wasn’t a choice
for me. In his eyes, what’s one lycan compared to the last watcher.
He wanted me alive, and protecting the human kind. I couldn’t see
it though. To me, it was one human against another. What was more
important to me now. The person I truly love, or me. It was Tae.
Everything was about Tae. Without him, there would be no watcher,
there would be no more me.


I will not, allow a damn
hunter, let me make a choice about anything. I want you to leave..
me..
alone!
” I
screamed. At that moment, Tae knew. He knew that I wasn’t going to
give him up for anything and there was no stopping me. I looked
behind me, and saw James and Kierce running up.


My own son?” I heard
Luthius ask. He saw that Kierce was on my side.


I love her father. You
should know how much love means to the hunters. You had love once,
why can’t you let me have mine.” Kierce talked back to his
father.


My own son betrayed me. Of
course you would fall in love with the watcher. The killer of our
kind!” Luthius yelled back.


Do you remember mom? She
was a watcher too!”


Yes, but she changed for
me! Her..” As he looked at me. “..She will
never
change for you!” Luthius
screamed in horror. Even though as much as Kierce knew I probably
wouldn’t. He didn’t care. He loved me, and he would stand by my
side until he couldn’t any longer.


Well, then have fun with my
puppies.” Luthius said with laughter that was filled with pure
hate. It was only the four of us against his puppies. The staggers.
Without bringing anymore commotion to the street, we looked at each
other and ran. We ran deep into the woods so no one would hear us
or make any assumptions. I still had to protect the humans, and
this town was my home. No one would be hurt on my watch. We finally
came to a stop, ready for the attack. It was Kierce on left, Tae on
my right followed by James. The four of us were as ready as any
other time.


Let’s make this a simple
joke.” I told them, and we all agreed. Without a doubt in my mind,
I smiled and heard the staggers running at us. “They didn’t get
enough last time.” I said laughing. I felt the power run though out
my body. I felt the hatred towards the staggers, and how sick I was
of them. Their gray and slimy figures ran through my mind, and I
got stronger by the second. I caused another storm. Rain, thunder,
lightning. I will use everything in my will at this moment. I had
no time to read within in me, so I was going to use whatever I
could. As soon as I seen the first stagger, I threw a jolt of power
towards it, and he flew back with another following him.

Tae and James were now fully transformed and
attacked the next two hunters that came close. I could see their
teeth ripping them apart. Another stagger came forward and Kierce
took this one. I have never seen him fight before. He was fast and
eager to kill them. These were not his kind, therefore he felt
nothing for killing them. He easily put the stagger in a choke hold
and snapped his neck. He then ran over to Tae and helped destroy
the stagger that was attacking him at the moment. I myself again
used my powers. These creatures came out left and right. With that,
I sent a bolt of energy towards each one. I crushed some with a
simple gesture of my fist and burnt other on sight. I heard Tae let
out a painful howl. He was hurt, but still fighting. He looked more
weaker by the minute. James tore apart every creature that ran at
him, as well as Kierce. The scene was now nothing but a massacre.
There was blood splattered on the ground, followed by the trees
around us. I was so sick of these things coming attacking the ones
I loved. I wanted the watcher to come in within me, but it did
not.

I simply used the abilities I was capable of
using, and it was enough for now. More blood was flying in the air,
and I was now covered with it fully. There wasn’t an inch of my
body that was clean. I could see the white in Tae’s fur, bright
red. I didn’t know whether it was the stagger’s blood, or theirs.
There were less staggers left now. Either we killed them or they
ran away didn’t really matter right now. I wanted this over with.
Every minute meant one of my loved ones could be more hurt.

Suddenly, I noticed movement off to the side.
Even as dark the storm has made it here in the woods, it was still
day time. It was Luthius and Argem. I cringed at the thought of
them. They did not look like monsters, but deep down, they were.
They came here to end the fight. To end us all. No hunter really
fought in a war. They always sent their dogs to take care of it.
Their dogs, in this case, were the staggers. As Luthius stepped
back, Argem enjoyed coming into the fight. He as well, was fast and
strong. James was stronger. They fought with such hatred. I could
see James struggling though. Argem grabbed him in a certain
position that James couldn’t get out of. I quickly looked over at
Tae, and he as well, was struggling, but Kierce was there helping
him. How could this be. The ones I loved once again fought for me.
If anything happened to any of them, it would destroy me
completely. It would destroy everything.

I looked over back at James, and he was still
struggling to get out of Argem’s grip. I heard his howling, and it
was a sign of pain. His bones were being broken by the second. My
own brother dying in front of my eyes. I took all the will and
power I had, and threw a source of energy at Argem. It hit him
backwards, but nothing more. He was prepared more this time since
the hit worked at him at the old factory. It didn’t seem right. It
should have at least knocked him hard enough to cringe or feel
pain. I looked back down at James, as he was looking at Luthius.
With a single throw of his arms, Luthius send a strange source of
energy towards James. He howled in more pain.


No!” I screamed. James was
now changed back into human. Blood on every part of his body. His
arms unable to move. He looked me in the eyes, with a single tear
rolling down his cheek. Soon after, he closed his eyes. “James!” I
screamed again, now in tears. I ran over to him tripping on
everything in sight. As I reached him, I knew it was too late. He
was gone. Completely gone.


You killed him! You killed
my own blood!” I screamed. Luthius looked at me with a smile. He
knew exactly what he has just done. I felt abhorrence rise up in
me. I stood up, with more than just tears making my vision blurred.
I saw a glow of light that was now surrounding me. With a single
scream, I pushed back any stagger that was still attacking Tae and
Kierce. I now focused only on Luthius. He knew what was coming to
him. The staggers of course ran away as before and Luthius was now
left alone with Argem.


I see. Well, this is only
the beginning.” He told me.


Not a chance.” I said.
Before I could fully bring my thoughts together, Luthius was gone,
as well as Argem. I was once again, left here, with the power
within in. This time, I had a different thought. If I only used the
power to heal James. To bring him back to life. With such pain and
the power tearing me apart, I screamed and forced it all towards
James. His body looked electrified, as it rose of the ground
slightly. Nothing happened though. No power left within me, and
James was not alive. I sat there next to him, rising up in tears. I
knew that nothing could bring him back. I put my head down near his
shoulder.


I didn’t even get to know
him yet.” I said out loud, closing my eyes.

Chapter Fourteen – Wedding

 

I woke up screaming the next morning. I could
see my brother dying behind my eyes. The terror I had, the pain I
felt. It was unbearable. I couldn’t bear to lose anyone else. I
felt myself choking over the thought that anything else could
happen.


How could I have let James
die.” I whispered to myself. There wouldn’t be another accident
like this. No one would be put in danger because of me. No one. I
could hear Tae and Kierce snoring in the other room. They were
healing by themselves I’m guessing. I didn’t really remember how
bad they were hurt. Nothing compared to James’s death right now. I
knew what I had to do. This time for sure, no one would stop me. I
got dressed for the day and left the house before anyone noticed I
woke up.

I tried to use some of my natural watcher’s
abilities. I had to figure out how exactly to get to Luthius. I had
a slight vision of a house, a mansion would be more like it. I felt
Lithius’s sense, as well as Argem’s and planned to follow it. It
would be impossible to get there without a vehicle. I decided to
walk to my old house, my parents’ house, and take one of the cars.
For my luck of course, they took both of them when they left. I
headed off through the woods, soon coming to the familiar lake.
From there, I knew how to get into the main road now. I recognized
the familiar road and the houses on it. I walked straight to my
house, which was originally the opposite of my school. I remembered
Vessa and Zayley. How I had so much fun with them. I then suddenly
felt unease, thinking that I was probably killed or something after
disappearing from the night at the store with Zayley. How did they
react to this? I know I would have gotten crazy. A girl disappeared
in a small town, soon after, her parents. I could just see the
headline news. I really hoped that wasn’t the case, and my parents
told Zayley I was on a trip to see my grandmother or something.
