/> "whoa, that was weird. Maybe there was some type of acid or something on her locker." Carly said.
"yeah, maybe." I said. Just then the bell rang and we walked to our first class. Me much slower because the guilt was eating me up. For the first three periods I didn't pay attention at all. I only sat there like I was paying attention, but really I was listening to my iPod. When the bell rang My head shot up and I walked out the room with Carly. As we walked down the hall, Devin caught my eye and I looked over at him. He cocked his head to the side and left. As if he was motioning to follow.
"Hey, Carly could you grab us a table. I forgot my money in my locker." I told her. She nodded and walked off. I ran in the same direction I saw Devin heading. I looked around lost when suddenly someone grabbed my arm and pulled my away. I gave a yelp but then I saw Devin, I know I shouldn't be happy to see him but I was some what relived. He pulled out side behind the gym.
"what do you want , Devin?" I asked him. He turned around and I saw that he was furious.
"It was you wasn't it?" He asked me as he stepped closer to me. I retreated a few steps back the closer he got.
"Wh-what do you mean?" I asked innocently. I was now pinned against a wall ,with Devin's arms caging me in.
"Don't play innocent." He banged his fist against the wall it caused me to jump. I slammed my eyes shut I then darted down the wall and curled up on the ground, trying to make my self seem invisible. I looked to see him fuming at me, and cowered underneath him. He gripped my hair and roughly pulled at it. I clawed at his arm to loosen his grip but he was unaffected.
"Now tell me how you did it! Why can you touch witch hazel?" He yelled at me.
"I-I can't." I squeaked. He drought his face close to mine and glared into my eyes.
"Then I guess you won't be leaving any time soon." The then started chanting an ancient spell. I could feel the electricity pumping threw me and I started to go numb. I knew this hex very well. He was temporally paralyzing me. Suddenly Devin was lifted off of me. I looked up to see Nate straddling Devin and pounding at his face.
"Nate?" I almost whispered. Nate looked over and his gaze met mine. He rushed over to me but before he could I hopped up off the ground and brushed my self off.
"Are you okay?" He asked me I nodded.
"I'm fine." I told him as I walked past him. He grabbed my wrist and pulled me back,
"Wait." He said as he spun me around to face him.
"What?"
"Why didn't you use your powers?" He asked me. God I hate that question.
"Just drop it, Nate."
"Savanna, Tell me." He stared intently at me, and then it dawned on him.
"You couldn't... could you?" I stayed silent for awhile.
"answer me!" He ordered.
"No, I couldn't! Are you happy now?" I shouted at him.
"Wh-"
"When I'm scared, my nerves take over, and my powers lock themselves. Now just drop it okay." I said as I stormed off.


V




*Nate*

It seems like no mater how many times I talk to her, she always stormed of angry. I couldn't blame her, especially this time. When I saw that her friend ,Carly, had been sitting alone for a long time, I went looking for her. I followed her sent to the gym. I heard a small voice,
"I-I can't." At first the voice sounded so high pitched that it sounded like a child's voice but then I realized it was her. I ran full speed to the side of the gym to see Savanna cowering in front of Devin. He then yanked her hair and she cried out in pain. Rage engulfed me and I yanked him away from her. I then threw him onto the ground and straddled him. I started punching at his jaw repeatedly until he blacked out. IO didn't care though, I just continued to punch him.
"Nate?" I heard a small voice ask. My limbs fell limp and I turned around to see her sitting on the floor. I leaped up and made my way over towards her but before I could she leaped up of the ground and brushed her self off."Are you okay?"I asked her and she nodded.
"I'm fine." She told me as she walked past her. I grabbed her wrist and pulled her back,
"Wait." I said as I spun her around to face me.
"What?" she snapped.
"Why didn't you use your powers?" I asked her.
"Just drop it, Nate." She said with a weak and ashamed tone in her voice.
"Savanna, Tell me." I stared intently at her, and then it dawned on me. My mind flashed back to that night that she saw me. She didn't even try to hex me until she had relaxed mire. So that was it hu? But was it even possible for her to be her own weakness?
"You couldn't... could you?" She stayed silent for awhile. She hugged herself and shifted uncomfortably under my gaze. I could tell by the look on her face that she was deep in thought.
"answer me!" I ordered. I mentally slapped my self for using that harsh tone with her. Savanna's eyes met mine and she wore a displeasing scowl on her face.
"No, I couldn't! Are you happy now?" She shouted at me. I was taken back by her words. I stood there and tried to rap my brain around it.
"Wh-" Was all I got to say before I stopped myself. I saw that she had that same ashamed look in her eyes as if she was hurt and on the verge of tears. I wanted so bad to wrap my arms around her and hold her close to my chest as she cried. Shit that's all I've wanted for the past two years or so.
"When I'm scared, my nerves take over, and my powers lock themselves. Now just drop it okay." she said as she stormed off. I didn't chase after her. I just watched as her form vanished around the corner.
I walked over to Devin's motionless body and bent down next to him. I placed my hand on his forehead and searched his mind for the events that just happened. When I saw the memory of him hurting Savanna, I wanted to wake him up just so I could beat the shit out of him again. Before I did something I would regret I erased his memories of the last half hour and then sprinted away to find Savanna.
I followed her sent which lead me inside the Gym. I looked around but frowned when I didn't see her. I strained my eyes and enhance my hearing. My hunting senses picked up the distant sound of blood pumping. I found her. I saw her sitting under the bleachers in fetal position. As I got closer I was relieved to see that she wasn't crying, just in deep thought. I focused in on her thoughts and images flashed through her mind. She thought back to last year, Devin who was on the ground outside, her parents, her mother, witchcraft, and so much more. I felt bad for her in all honesty. Four years later and her parents murder was still fresh in her mind. I was shocked when all of a sudden she thought of me.
"get out of my head ,Nate." She said.
"Just wanted to know if your alright." I told her.
"I'm fine so leave."
"What type of a stalker would I be if I left you alone?" I said jokingly. She turned around and glared at me.
"I said leave." She warned me again.
"Not going to happen. You say your fine ,but I know your not." I told her. Stepped closer and placed my hand on the edge of the bleacher and instantly regretted it. I hissed in pain as a sharp pain shot up my arm. I removed my hand from the bench and looked down to see that the aluminum at the edge or the bench was a different shade. Silver.
"Did you just turn the bench to silver?" I asked.
"Yup." She said popping the "P" I watched as she brushed her hair to the side and for only a second she revealed her crescent scare on her neck.
