(Friday Night)
Tyler felt a throbbing pain ringing thru his skull, he hadn't opened his eyes yet. He was quite afraid to open them cause he had no idea where he could be. He smelt lavender, and incense candles burning, his hands felt soft fabrics underneath him which let him know that he was laying on a bed. He suddenly realized he felt a weight on him, it felt like somebody was sitting on his waist.
Tyler opened his eyes slowly, slightly afraid as to who might actually be there with him. He finally opened his eyes to see a small cute face directly in front of his. Startled he jumped a little bit, the girl smiled at him with her cute pink lips and matching hair, and her amazingly brown eyes.
"~hi~" she said in this cute sing songy kinda way "~my name is Lilin~"
Tyler felt very uncomfortable with this girl straddling him. He moved to push her off but fell short in his efforts because as he tried he felt all his strength disappear. She smiled at him and seemed to look amused at his failed attempts.
"~you are still weak since it happened huh~" she inquired which he responded with a simple nod.
"I know you'd feel weak afterwards most of us do...." Tyler tried turning but it was useless with Lilin sitting atop him telling him about the change, which in all honesty no one had. The teachers were vague about it or said it had to be experienced. Even in his misguided attempts to force it he hadn't felt like this afterwards. which now that Tyler had experienced the genuine thing, he hated it. "I'm pretty sure your wondering what happened"
Tyler's head was packed with questions and a migraine that let him know he was thinking too hard. He looked around the room trying to ignore the questions and finally noticed two other people in the room. One was sitting on a couch with a newspaper in front of his face. The other person was a dark skinned girl who was sitting by a desk in front of a computer, she was typing very rhythmically.
The dark skinned girl turned and looked over her shoulder before saying "Lilin get off of the boy before Clayton comes back and catches you molesting his brother".
Lilin pouted very cutely and hopped off Tyler and sat on the couch next to the guy with the newspaper.
"you happy now Akaiya" Lilin scowled
Akaiya simply smirked and nodded "yes I am actually"
Tyler jumped up completely startled "wait Clayton is coming here...why!?!?" Why would his brother be one of the people they would call they are supposed to be mortal enemies especially with Clayton wanting his father's throne.
"yes he is coming here" the dark skinned girl said quite nonchalantly as she began to ask Tyler a bunch of medical questions.
"Do you feel light headed?"
"yes...a little" Tyler said while rubbing his temple.
"are you thirsty.."
"no I'm not but I'm quite hungry"
"craving any odd food items or any unusual combination of them" Tyler stared at her quizzically.
What could she have possibly mean was all he thought to himself. He also found it odd he had a craving for pickled eggs and rotten fish. "yes I do actually...how would you know" the dark skinned girl simply smiled light heartedly. "well that's cause I do this all the time...I'm my crew's medic" she continued grinning as she wrote down notes on her note pad " would you like that I get you the stuff your craving".
"umm oh yes please" Tyler couldn't resist saying yes when he felt utterly disgusted by his strange craving " I would like some pickled eggs and rotten fish please"
Lilin made a mock vomiting sound and pretended to gag when she heard what he wanted. "that's gross why would you want that stuff" the dark skinned girl stared daggers at her out burst. "you should be one to talk because I remember you wanted to eat lint and fingernails" lilin was utterly embarrassed and pouted as she quieted down.
The guy next to lilin sighed as if in deep thought. He got up and said "right away my lady...I'll obtain what the boy requests" as these words left his lips he seemed to wince and the air around him became almost strict and regulated. He headed out of the room with a sense of urgency.
The door to the room opened up again and instead of the young man who had left earlier two new figures stepped in. One was a tall light skinned guy with two red scars across his eyes. The other was a girl with long shoulder length hair, she had amber colored eyes that glowed with energy, her skin wasn't like the boy standing next to her it was much fairer.
"hey there little bro" grinned Clayton as he stood in the door way "what you been up to"
Tyler turned and stared at him unable to respond. Memories of Clayton hunting him in a forest came rushing back to him.
They overtook him as he slipped into a kaleidoscope of horror. A flash of a scared boy running with one savage beast hot on his tail. He dashed behind a tree trying to catch his breathe then he heard him.
"where'd you go" said a very distorted and guttural male voice "I've got enough problems with others vying for the throne without you ya little bugger"
He gasped.
Tyler caught himself, forcing the memories away he shook his head to try and shake them away. He looked up at his brother from the bed and entered a more comfortable position sitting upwards. Tyler was at a lost for words 'why would he save me' he thought 'this guy orchestrated his hunt back when he was five'.
"why did you help me" Tyler almost screamed without realizing it. The boy who had left earlier returned holding out a tray with pickled eggs and rotten fish sandwiches. The boy froze and peered at a furious Tyler thru the only eye not covered by his silver hair. Tyler continued his screaming completely uninterrupted by the boy's arrival "well why did you help me I thought you wanted me dead..." he took a breathe and began eating the odd food items he requested earlier and then continued "or is this your way of doing it..huh"
Clayton stood quite surprised at what he was hearing, yes he had tried killing this boy, his brother, before but that was behind him and besides he wasnt the one that helped him back at the pool.
The girl standing next to Clayton laughed quite amused at the spectical taking place before her eyes. "before you continue screaming at the top of your lungs you should know Clayton here didn't save you..." she pointed at Lilin and the silver haired boy before proceeding "those two did...they simply asked Clayton to give you the guidance you so clearly need" she moved to sit down on the couch beside Lilin "you tried killing them too...well until they managed to put you down"
Tyler had long since calmed down and even began feeling guilty for the way he had acted. He looked at his two saviors and thanked them quickly, before returning an angry gaze at his brother.
"I still dont want any sorta help from you" Tyler glared at Clayton "I'll get help from someone else" he began to rise out of the bed but suddenly felt all his strength drained 'what the hell' he thought.
"yea I knew you'd say that so I think its better if you find somebody else and I will simply observe and advise" Clayton responded his eyes glowing red as he focused on Tyler's weakened state "plus I see this as a way to make up for the shit I put you thru as a little kid"
The room seemed tense, heck it felt like if someone breathed too loudly that everything would break. No one wanted to shatter such a cold family realization that these two brothers hated each other to the core. Akaiya had stayed out of the whole discussion but she grew tired of the tension and decided to end it.
Tyler sighed heavily and began to close his eyes moments after Akaiya waved her hand. "It's better if he not stress after such an ordeal." Clayton nodded in agreement.
Clayton finally moved from the door way and closed the door before picking up his now passed out brother and carrying him to his bedroom. He laid him under the covers and tucked him in before saying "rest easy little brother cause when you wake up I'll help make you into the 'God' father intended you to be"
The girl who walked in with Clayton, Arnia, came into the room and watched as Clayton laid his brother down. "you do know that the only one who can train him is Ardelle" she looked down towards the ground as if she was a child caught by a parent doing wrong "he will kill you once he learns what your doing to him and I can't stand to watch you help train your would be murderer."
