Hiding

Hello peoples!

▲▼▲▼▲▼▼▼▲▼▲▼▲▼▲▼▲

"Zeke! School!" A groan was heard from the other side of his door. "Don't make me go in there!" I threatened. A bang echoed through the hallway. He threw his clock at the door. I chuckled. "I will make you pancakes if you get up!"

There was rustling heard before the door opened a crack. His twelve-year-old  face poked out, his hair tied in a small ponytail at the back of his neck. "With blueberries?" he asked.

"Only if you promise not to ditch to the skate park again."

He rolled his eyes and shut the door muttering, "You do it one time and your branded for life!"

I chuckled and hopped on my left leg to the kitchen where my crutches leaned against the wall. I had been trying to walk, but Zeke always caught me.

It sucked.

I began to pour pancake batter on the skillet and then sprinkled blueberries on top. I was drumming my fingers against my leg when I heard the front door open and close.

Jace walked in, throwing his dark leather jacket over one of the kitchen chairs. Without saying a word he strode past me over to the medicine cabinet that was above the fridge. I watched as he swallowed three Tylenol dry before he finally realized I was standing right there. He shook his dyed hair out of his eyes and nodded at me. I studied the newly formed bruise right above his left eyebrow and scowled. "What the hell did you do last night?"

He shrugged, headed to the livingroom. I sighed.  It was always like this, he would leave in the middle of the night, and come back in the morning. Sometimes he was hurt, sometimes he was just tired. I had tried to get him to tell me where he was going,  but he would barley say a word as it was.

Zeke bounced into the kitchen,  swinging his backpack on his shoulder. I handed him a plate piled high with pancakes and gooey syrup. "I got to go in today." I told him, as I rolled my pancake up like a burrito and took a bite out of it. "So your gonna have to ride the bus home" He nodded, his eyes focused on the TV in the livingroom. I hopped over to the door, and peered my head in. Jace was watching the news on the couch, his dark eyes narrowed.

Panic has risen once again as police forces are baffled by the mass murder of the well known gang group The Laś Tress. The bodies of the leader and his closest men were found dead with their throats slit in an alleyway near the gang's base. The gang has disbanded,  until further notice. We now go to Captain James the head of the LPA.

Thank you Mandi. We have discovered who killed these men, because they left their signature. The person who did this is no other than Shadow himself.

Jace tensed on the couch, his eyes studying the face of my boss.

I am asking everyone at home not to worry, as we have our best agent hunting down this assassin. If you do know where Shadow is residing, please contact us with the number on the bottom of the screen.

Jace stood abruptly from the couch and stormed past me. There was a slam, and I jumped as the echo of his door slamming shut rippled through the house.

I was lost completely. I knew he said that Shadow killed his parents, but he wasn't acting like he was grieving. He kept disappearing, coming back hurt, or locking himself away. Now this.

I reminded myself to talk to him when I got back.

》《》《》《》《》《》

Jace leaned his scared back against the wall wincing. Even after nine years, they still stung. He could still feel the cold specks of glass and the hot leather of the wip dig into his back, scaring his flesh for life.

He brushed his fingers against the tattoos that were carved into his skin, and he traced the one that he favored.

Omega

End.

The death power. The reason he could sense death, talk to dead souls.

He hated it.

But it was a gift.

Looking into the person's eyes and knowing when the will die, or looking into their soul and pulling it from their body.

He shuddered.

His body tensed, causing the ink to pop out even more from his wrists. If it even was ink. He was born with them, they were the reason he was thrown on the street. The reason people tournamented him.

He heard the front door close, signalling The woman leaving.

What was her name? Jade, he was sure.

She had been stupid enough to get in the way of the Luna who could use electricity. He was hunting her down, When he saw Jade get stuck by the Luna. He had killed the Luna without a second thought, but he was troubled about helping Jade.

She was very pretty, with her blonde, wavy hair and green eyes. It wasn't her fault that she got hit, she was simply there at the wrong time.

He had decided to help her, but planned to keep her asleep. Nevertheless, she fought the sleeping drug and woke in his room. She had seen his hideout. He had the idea that she had no idea who he was when they fought, but he was weary of how good she was. She must be linked to the government some how, and he couldn't have her know who he really was.

So he made up some sob story that she actually believed. He was keeping an eye on her.

Little did he know that she was the one after him.

》《》》》》》》》》》》

I dropped Zeke off at school, before driving to the LPA. I retrieved my crutches with difficulty, Before hobbling into the lobby. I limped right past the secretary and into the elevator, where I pressed the 95th floor.

"So best agent huh?" I threw the door of my boss's office open, so I banged on the wall.

"Jade!" He gave me a fake smile that didn't reach his eyes. "How nice of you to stop by?"

I rolled my eyes and limped over to his desk and sat down with a plop. "Just give me the damn files." I held out my hand expectingly.

He dropped his smile and retrieved a packet of info on Shadow from under his desk. "Everything anyone who has ever known about him is in there." He handed it to me. "Uh, what happened to your leg?"

I waved him off after standing up. "I fell. I can walk in two more weeks. Bye!" I limped out his office door leaving him with a surprised look on his face.
