What Happened to Cooper? (Lyrica)

Author: Stormy
last update Last Updated: 2025-04-25 07:23:14

As I lay there, my body seems to mould to the ground and I refuse to get up and get Cooper away from the street. My body is heavy, and I struggle to keep my head clear, thoughts seem to flood my head and I can’t seem to think straight. Worry for everyone, especially for Natalie and Ash, I don’t understand this level of loyalty that I have developed for the two. I find that if there happened to be a stand off between Cooper and Natalie I would probably stand before Natalie and protect her with my life. I don’t understand this level of dedication but I assume it is because I now feel as though I belong somewhere. After being alone for so long and having someone welcome me without asking questions, I will never, ever walk away from someone who so willingly let me enter their family.

Finally I gather my strength and begin to shake Cooper, “Cooper!” I hiss under my breath, trying not to draw attention to us. “Cooper? Please, please get up...” My voice is urgent, “we need to go.” He move

    Finally after a solid ten minutes of them throwing questions that I couldn’t answer there was finally silence. “Well, I can’t answer any of those questions but I do have something to tell you. The master some how manipulated Cooper, I don’t know what he did, but Cooper has now got like a completely different personality. So just be careful about what you say around him, because we won’t be able to tell if someone unwanted will be listening in. So everyone okay with...” There is a sudden bang and I see all the eyes in the room turn towards the door; all eyes seem to be weary as they assess the new person standing in the room. Cooper takes a step forward and I notice that Alex is the first to recover. She flings herself at Cooper and collects him in a gigantic hug. “It’s so good to see that you’re alright.” Cooper slowly wraps his arm around her and holds her loosely. Quickly Alex releases him and throws her self back into Aaron’s arms. Alex then turns to me, “So what’s the pla

  • Nightmare   They made it back! (Lyrica)

    An hour after I have posted the roster I get my first complaint, and of course the person complaining is someone by the name of Josh who happens to have first duty tonight. “LYRICA, WHY...DO...I...HAVE...THE...FIRST...SHIFT?” He practically screams at me, I decide to make up a lie that will sound like the truth “You just happened to be the first name I pulled out of the hat.” To be completely honest with you, I put him first just to get him out of everybody’s road, he makes such a racket and I have no idea how Natalie was ever with this guy, she’s to good for him. Josh looks at me for a minute contemplating what I had just said “What hat did you use?” The question catches me unawares and for a second I am unsure what to do, when suddenly I see a hat on Ash’s desk. “This one.” I quickly walk over and grab it. “And the paper scraps?” I point at the bin, hoping that Ash had put something in it recently. He walks over and peers into the bin, he nods his head and then says,

  • Nightmare   Traitor (Aidan)

    Blacks interruption had confused me, for a second I thought that he was going to help the other monsters from the council, but I misjudged his character. It had been years since that last master died, but considering that can’t happen anymore it had to be expected that one of the monsters would want the other Ma Vista’s to win, but quite frankly that is not an option. From what I have heard from the other monsters, rumours are going round that Natalie and Ash are planning not on killing all the monsters because there job will still have to be done, but only killing those that killed the people that weren’t destined to pass on. And I was starting to worry that some of them believed in this rumour, well Black certainly had and I think Blue was with the devil when she came up with the option. I look at the injured monsters that surround me and am surprised that we haven’t lost as many as I expected, but I guess that they would be harder to kill considering that the majority of the figh

  • Nightmare   Pay back (Aidan)

    The monster gulps and moves forward to stand at the front. He lifts up the bag he is holding and I am surprised to see a human within the bag. “Why do you hold a human?” I ask as politely as possible. “It’s not just any human, it’s one of their humans, one of the important ones that the Ma Vista’s talk to.” I look at him in surprise, “And how did you find him?” “He was sitting out the front of the house, so I took the opportunity to grab him.” A look of uncertainty flashes across his face, before he regains his confidence. I look at the unconscious human, that I certainly had seen floating around with the little gang that Natalie had created. Then a stroke of genius erupts in my head, I could use this guy to cause even more havoc, maybe make Natalie regret bringing her friends into this mess that wasn’t even meant to be theirs in the first place. “Thank you, this has given us one of the most important game changes in the battle. Can you please bring him up here and place him

  • Nightmare   Nightmare (Natalie)

    All I can think of is running, I can hear it coming behind me, giving chase like any predatory animal would do if they sensed easy prey. I know it’s catching me, the heavy footsteps following in my wake. I scan the wilderness looking for a way to escape this nightmare, but there’s nothing, no tree high enough, no branch long enough. My only hope is to keep running. Flashing back to seconds earlier, the look on my best friend’s face as the beast appeared from the shadows of the trees is all I can see. We were in the mountains camping for our summer vacation, enjoying our time away from school. When this summer ends, I will be going into senior year, getting ready for college and life ahead. Now everything has changed. Alexandria and I were just sitting on the logs that surround the flickering flames of the fire. We were roasting marshmallows and enjoying our freedom away from home. When it emerged. Alexandria saw it first. At first it looked like a bear, but it was too big. Then it s

  • Nightmare   Summer Vacation (Natalie)

    It’s morning and I don’t remember anything that happened last night, so when my alarm goes off saying it’s 7am, I climb out of bed and head downstairs to the kitchen where the rest of my family should be. It’s a surprise when I enter the room and there’s no smell of toast or coffee which my mum has every morning before work. No smell of pancakes that my brother, Zac, cooks every morning before school. After I search the kitchen with no sign of any of them I go to their bedrooms and find them all still sound asleep. Is my clock wrong? I check mums nightstand and see that her clock reads the same as mine. Nope. Then it hits me, it’s the first day of summer vacation. Well that’s just great!There’s nothing I can do now so I go back and lay down on my bed. As I waited I glanced over at the mirrors on my wardrobe. My golden mane of curls looked like a tumble weed on my head and while this hair usually framed my pale face nicely, made it look like I’d tossed and turned all night. My usual s

  • Nightmare   Nick! (Natalie)

    Climbing out of the car I try not to stare at the “good looking man” at the pump across from me. As I’m trying not to look like a complete stalker while filling up the car I see a flash of movement out of the corner of my eye. Turning slowly I see a familiar car pulling in behind me. Oh no, Nick. Okay, I know what you probably thinking. “Natalie, you have a crush on Nick!” Well that’s not true! The truth is, I use to have a crush on him when I was younger, but I’m over that now. Even though he is still pretty hot, I am over it, I swear. Nick is 18, one year older than me. As Nick gets out of the car I make a run for the cash register. I know Nick will recognise my Swift out the front and realise I’m inside. He will most likely come looking for me because we haven’t seen each other for one year, but I don’t want to see him right now. As I pay for the petrol I step backwards and bump into someone. I turn around and look straight into the good looking man’s deep brown eyes. At first I’m

  • Nightmare   Mysterious Ash (Natalie)

    Slowly Ash climbs into the driver’s side of the vehicle and starts the car. At first there’s an awkward silence, because neither one of us knows the other. So Ash decides to start the conversation. “That was the best punch I have ever seen.’ At this point I’m too confused to reply because I have a billion thoughts going through my head, but he continues on without any comment from me anyway. “He didn’t even see it coming. I don’t think he was expecting you to punch him even though he was being a douche bag. At first I think he thought I was the one that punched him because he was looking at me and his eyes were screaming bloody murder. You were amazing, I didn’t think he would go so low to punch a girl, but I apparently was wrong about that too. I knew if he hit you that second time you would have got really injured so I jumped in front.” he concludes. This makes me lift my eyes to meet his. This stranger actually took a hit for me, a stranger I don’t even know, took a hit for me!

  • Nightmare   Torn up (Lyrica)

    Cooper’s sudden disappearance had me confused and worried, he had been fighting right along beside me since the beginning of the battle and then he started acting funny. He had looked at me with fear, as if he was seeing something that was not actually happening, then he had ran in the opposite direction. I had been about to follow when I was unexpectedly knocked over as a monster struck me with something sharp. The blood had welled immediately on my arm and I noticed the three long claw marks across my arm and how quickly I was losing blood. I needed to get out of here and find somewhere safe. The pain rocketed through me as I lifted my sword to fight off the monster that had just attacked me. I swung my sword immediately feeling it impact against something but as I swung my sword back towards me. A deep roar had ricocheted around us making the earth rumble and groan. I saw everyone running in all direction, there was no sign of the monsters as if they had been called away; I took th

  • Nightmare   Saved (Natalie)

    As the words slip out of Blacks mouth I become still, my muscles tense and I am left standing in the middle of the street completely vulnerable because of this new theory. Me, the new master... that’s... that has to be impossible. The words are barely a whisper on my lips as they slip out. “How?” All five monsters look at me, and I realise I just managed to grab all their attentions. Shit! Black’s eyes seem to soften as he takes in this whole situation. “I know its not ideal, but it’s the only way for us to be free, and I understand that you want to do that declaration, and I as the oldest of all monsters would be happy to be the first one to sign it.” I stare at him in shock and surprise, how does he even know about this, the only person I had this discussion with was Blue in the cell at Aidan house, while I tried to persuade Blue to help me get free. Suddenly there is a loud yell and the master marches forward, “I’ve had enough of this rubbish one of you grab my sword, it’s

    Suddenly he stands; I glance at him anxiously wondering what he’s about to do. He scans the area, I watch his legs stiffen and as he slowly rotates his neck to look at me. His eyes aflame with anger, a low growl escapes through his tightly closed lips. “What have you done?” I stare at him in horror “I...I...I didn’t do any...anything.” I stutter as he continues to glower at me. “Liar!” He screams, as his hands reach around my throat and he shakes me viciously. I am gasping for breath as I struggle against Aidan trying to break away or at least loosen his hold on me. With out warning he throws me away from him and glares at towards the end of the street. Tentatively I ask “Aidan?” My voice growing with concern, not for him but my wellbeing, as I have no idea what he is looking at. “Hush Natalie, there is no need for you to worry your little head about this.” He gives me a long hard look, before reaching behind him and grabbing the sword that he had released earlier when he sh

  • Nightmare   Vision (Natalie)

    As the vision comes, my eyes seem to slowly close, and as I’m surrounded by back a small stream of light breaks through the opening of my eyelids. As my eyes open, the bodies and the blood that surround me are confronting. All my friends are being slaughter, I look around the clearing and see Ash fight beside Aaron, they both seem to be protecting each other’s back. I scan the rest of the clearing to see Lyrica fighting beside Cooper, but she keeps glancing at him like there might be something wrong with him, but she doesn’t let this stop her from throwing sand and swinging her sword in every direction she can. I see some of Riley’s fighters fighting with the equipment that they grab this morning before we left. There are some bodies on the ground but they are to far away for me to see what they are. As I climb to my feet, I Ash turns in my direction and a look of relief flashes over his face. He exchanges a few words with Aaron, Aaron nods and they slowly make their way towards me.
