Tough Love 21

Four Hours Later. Where the Hell is she?

Decklan’s Point of view:

My mother was out of her head when we told her Jess was missing. My father was almost in tears. We checked everywhere, the places she would visit like the park, starbucks, even Aiden’s house. We were all worried for her.
I didn’t want to believe that Jess had an evil side to her, I didn’t want to believe that.
‘Jess did this…..’
Aiden’s voice kept bugging me. I knew my sister better than anyone,
Or did I?
We were like twins, we know when something was wrong with each other. Then why didn’t I know that she was hurting? Or that she might be evil? Or that she has possessed not just one, but four powers. Who knows, maybe she has gained more while I was arguing with my mother right now.

"I didn’t know she was going to disappear just like that!" I told my mother.
"You four are responsible for her, you’re suppose to be taking care of her," said my mother. She was angry, pissed. It was written all over her face. One wrong move and bang! It was your head that would go down first, then everything else would follow – or the remains of it anyway. She was a tough one, she didn’t know fear. At least I thought she didn’t.
"We were! It wasn’t our fault she lost it," growled Tye.
"We didn’t even see this coming," said Beau.
"None of us did, even I didn’t," said my father.
We looked at him questionably. "What are you talking about?" I asked.
He sighed. "I can see the future."
"You tell us now?" I demanded. "Is this some sort of scam? You think it’s fun to play your games at a time like this?"

"There are some things about us, the world, our people that you don’t know about," said my mother.
"We have been waiting for the right moment to tell you," said my father.
"And you think this is the right time?" I growled, throwing my hands in the air. "Jess could be dead for all we know."
I was angry at her, at him, at the both of them, angry at the world, angry at myself for letting this happen to Jess. They tell us now. I don’t know why but it made me angry that my sister was out there, alone, while we were here talking about our people. Yeah right.

"The future can be many things Decklan, I didn’t see Jess’s future. I saw all your futures, my future, your mothers. How do you think we met?"
"High school sweet-hearts?" asked Beau.
I scowled. "Who gives a toss about our future or your past. Where’s Jess now?"
I was being unfair, but who were they to judge? I made a vow that I would protect my sister, keep her out of harms way.
Now I have broken that vow, I have let my sister run off to who-knows where, more like vanish into thin air.

"I - I cant see her future. Her mind is very powerful, even when she was a babe."
"You mean you cant see her?" asked Tye.
He shook his head.
"Great," I mumbled. "Not only is our sister - your daughter, is out there all alone and who knows. Maybe if we’re lucky she would be alive still, yet here we are discussing some lame conversation that doesn’t seem to make any sense to me."
Silence. No one spoke. I was angry, so angry I wanted to shout, scream, punch someone, let the anger out of me.

"I’ll call Aiden and see if he’s got a lead on Jess. I hope, I really hope that he does. I hope he could get through to her," said Tye, then walked off.
I glared at my father, sitting at that chair as if nothing was wrong. My mother that was pacing up and down, the twins were quiet. I was so shaken up on fury that I was afraid that once I open my mouth, I wouldn’t be able to close it.
"I’m going for a drive. See you guys later," I said. I grabbed the keys and headed for the door. I turned around before I shut the door and said, "or maybe not at all."
"Deck - " before I could allow myself to hear anymore of this I slammed the door shut and walked to my car. I needed time to think, time to calm down. Jess knew how to calm me, always knew.
