The Midnight Sun Chapter Six
Chapter 6Why did I let Theodore trick me again? It was obviously a trick. They both played on me to get me to go to their stupid Halloween parties. Selena actually asked me to dress in leather. Her actual words were. “You can never go wrong with black leather.” This was why I switched my traditional cargo pants and sweats for black skin tight leather pants, a white crop tank top and a black leather jacket with steel studs and combat boot heels. I look like a hungry rock star. Dye a streak of my hair red and hand me an empty guitar case and I’ll fit the roll perfectly.So here I was in front of a mansion that I didn’t know existed till one hour ago. When I told my mother that I was invited to a party, she didn’t think for a minute before letting me go. I don’t know if it is because of my small outburst this morning or because I apparently don’t have any friends and I should be lucky to get invited to a high school party for once in my life. Whatever reason it was, I didn’t appreciate
The Midnight Sun Chapter Seven
Chapter 7“You know that I don’t have the plague right?” He said. His voice was beginning to sound better. Phew, the sooner he was fine, the sooner I get to leave her and go back to my house. My mom would be upset if I missed my curfew and she wouldn’t let me go for any party again, which was of course the plan. Selena can’t keep ordering me to any coven activities they might have. As fun as it was, I’ll rather stay indoors with PJs, socked feet and a comic book than go out into the open world.“Just hurry up and heal yourself.” I mutter. Selena should be here in my place, attending to her twin brother. “What fight did you get yourself in.”“Are you really that worried Diana? He asked in mock astonishment.“Stop messing with me.” I snap giving him a glare.“If it makes you feel better, it shouldn’t take more than a few more minutes.”“I hope so.” He better. I don’t know why I didn’t just ignore him. He would have been fine without my help anyway.“Do you hate being around me so much?”
The Midnight Sun Chapter Eight
Chapter 8The next couple of weeks was a blur of school work, training and meditation. I am still not great according to Theodore but at least I was not a ‘total disgrace’, his words not mine. In my opinion, I’ve actually gotten really good. I can call on my powers on a whim but it still didn’t have the finesse that Selena or Theodore’s had. I still haven’t discovered that special power that the rest of the witches had different from each other. Theodore with his healing and Selena with her voice thing. She didn't’t exactly say it to me but I kind of figured it out myself. How else do I explain my accepting their interference in my life for the past weeks. Or maybe it is just a twin thing? Twins are supposed to have special powers right? I feel like I missed a whole course on Magic 101 and my ‘guardians’ were doing a terrible job of putting together a crash course. I feel like they just hoped I learnt all the important stuff along the way.We finally decided on a perfect location to t
The Midnight Sun Chapter Nine
Chapter 9While I was driving to school the next morning, I was tempted to stop by the coffee shop, just to get coffee and donuts of course. Definitely not because I couldn’t stop myself from thinking about my exchange with Theodore last night or because I wonder if I would bump into him again before we see each other at school. No that would make me pathetic, and I am not pathetic. I have no idea as to why I couldn’t stop thinking about night skys and crickets or why I was desperately looking forward to being in school today. It was a monday. I should hate mondays. But I didn’t hate today. I was humming a song in the shower and I didn’t even argue with Cole at the breakfast table. I do not remember ever being in such a good mood in the morning. It has never happened, until today that is. I was in a really good mood today. Nothing could upset me.Except that something did upset me. The two people that usually stood by my locker every morning where standing there when I got to school.
The Midnight Sun Chapter Ten
Chapter 10“Hey.” Theodore said. He was wearing his usual hoodie but he had the hood off. He let his hair fall across his shoulders is in wild messy waves giving me the impression that he had run his hands through them countless times today in frustration. He’d done countless times around me so I’m pretty sure I was right. He was holding a pair of skates in his hand and he had a mischievous glint in his eyes. I spelled bad news.“Uh,” I paused, looking at the skates then back at him. “Skates?” I hated that I didn’t know how to raise a single eyebrow. It would have added extra effects to my question.“Yes. Do you not have a pair?” He asked raising the said eyebrow. Show off.“I don’t. I don’t know how to skate either.”“That’s okay I’m sure the outdoor arena has one in your size that we could rent.”“Excuse me, did you not hear everything that I just said?” I asked rolling my eyes.“I did.”“And,” I prompted.“And we’re going to the skating rink.” He replied, being deliberately oblivio
The Midnight Sun Chapter Eleven
Chapter 11I got home by 5pm. I could have stayed outside longer but I didn’t tell my mom where I was going and even though a smile from Theodore would magically erase her anger, I’m not sure I could push my luck much further. She could get a hold of herself any moment and it was going to be chaotic for me. Not just because I don’t want anything tampering with my freedom. My training was also at risk. Theodore and I didn’t say much to each other after our confession. I’m glad we didn’t because I wasn’t exactly sure what I was going to say. I know I was just prolonging the inevitable and eventually, we were going to be forced to have ‘the talk’ but I was going to enjoy my time right now and live in the moment. In a moment, everything could just disappear and I’d find myself back to my first step. I liked Theodore, a lots. Granted, I admitted it to him before I admitted it to myself but it was still the truth. I do like him a lot. I do want to spend all day with him looking at fake and
The Midnight Sun Chapter Twelve
Chapter 12For weeks, I didn’t receive any contact from my strange visitor. At first I was worried because I finally remembered to tell them what had been happening to me since I started training with them. Selena thought we needed to see a dreamweaver or something, someone that would interprete to us. l wasn’t exactly elated about the whole thing, no one wants another person moving around in their head, so I was glad when I discovered that I had for a month before I see her because they only had one dreamweaver in the coven. As it turns out, she was an even greater freak of a woman and she’d disappear unannounced for weeks only to return for a few. I don’t know what Selena was thinking, considering to allow someone like that near me but I trusted her judgment so I would not complain.Theodore and I had become even more close than we were before. It happened so suddenly. One minute we wanted kill each other by shooting lasers through our eyes and the next minute, we could not get enou
The Midnight Sun Chapter Thirteen
Chapter 13Tiny was finally awake and I let out a breath that I had no idea I was holding. I was so relieved I thought I was going to cry. A tear even managed to escape from my eyes. I didn’t know how I was going to process everything if my impulsiveness almost got someone killed.“I told you to not let go.” Tiny said, getting into a sitting position on the chair. I resisted the urge to push her down so she could just lie down. I had to remind myself over and over that she was an adult who could take care of herself and this was probably not her first time.“I’m sorry. I thought you would die if you held on.” I replied bringing down my head, chastised.“You were right.”I was right? “I was?” I ask in shock.“Yes.” She said. Selena brought her a cup of tea and she patted her hand in thanks. “I would have probably died if you didn’t let go of my hand.”“Did something happen?” The question was from Theodore. He was beside me now. He held my hands in his own.“You need to be trained Diana

The Midnight Sun Chapter Nineteen
Final Chapter The Dark Mage didn't even look like he broke a sweat and I was already breathing hard. I searched my brain for any tricks Theodore had taught me and I didn't use. Nothing was coming into my mind. "You've had your fun little one" the Mage said with a sheer "Now it's time I had mine." The mage raised two arms, gathering dark evil power. I looked into his face which had contorted, leaving a pale evil mask. The whites of his eyes were completely black now. He looked like a demon. Everything moved in slow motion when he released the dark power and pushed to me. I put up a shield in record time but the black wave was beginning to eat up, the flimsy shield I put up to protect myself. He focused his attention hitting and hitting. I don't know if I could hold on much longer. The shield shattered like glass around me, his dark power reached for me with cold hands and I was helpless to stop him. The defenses I had set up in my mind were already Shattered I could feel him prying
The Midnight Sun Chapter Eighteen
CHAPTER 18I looked to the wizard sitting in front of me, his look of terror mirrored the one I was feeling inside, even though we didn't say it, even though we technically had no proof, I knew we were thinking the exact same thing."He is here" he said gravely like he was delivering a death sentence. It might as well be one. My plan to learn how to use all the power at my disposal to kick its creepy stalking, family napping ass just flew out the window poof. I called it; the universe truly did have something against me. All what has happened to me for the past few month just go ahead to prove that some god up there was having a laugh at my expense. There is a keep full of magic folk all looking up to a fellow white flasher to beat him up again and here I am, not being able to lift a freaking feather. I knew the ranting I was having inside my head was only stalling the inevitable. Even now I could hear screams of people as they ran to safety. I got up quietly from the mat. Sir Robin
The Midnight Sun Chapter Seventeen
CHAPTER 17 I couldn't help the slight shiver that raked through my body and I smiled sweetly at him. "I wondered where you ran off to" I said punching him playfully on his arm "I had work to do here at the keep" "Work?" I asked my face scrunching up in confusion "Teddy is a watcher, a sort of warrior at the keep. He is always so secretive, it's not like it is something that should be kept secret" Selena said rolling her eyes. "I wasn't keeping it a secret" he said defensively. "Yeah right." Selena replied folding her arms across her chest. "How come your girlfriend doesn't know what you do?""It just", I watched with amusement as Theodore scratched his hair nervously. "It never came up""Whatever guys" I said interrupting Selena when she looked like she was about to throw a come back "What's a watcher anyway?" I asked. I actually wanted to know. Theodore and I have been dating for weeks and I still feel like there were a lot of things I didn't know about him. I couldn't help f
The Midnight Sun Chapter Sixteen
Chapter SixteenThe keep was not at all what I expected. Lanterns were floating in the air and so were people. A small train conveyed people and other stuff across. It was definitely large enough to be an actual city. It looked impossible to be kept secret but the magic made it possible. It was like I got lost in a crowd and began to go sightseeing. Somehow I knew I would never be lost in such a place. Everywhere seemed to lead back to the entrance. The archways and passages where clearly cut through stone. I was sure that it was the work of magic. There was no way that a normal human being could do something so beautiful out of hard stone.The witches in the keep were moving about their business and I felt out of place for some reason. There wasn't anything distinct about me and no one even paid me much attention but I still felt out of place. I passed a store selling potions and peculiar things, another selling robes, I don't know what for. None of the witches I have seen made use o
The Midnight Sun Chapter Fifteen
Chapter Fifteen I stayed still on the bed using my eyes to scan my surroundings for any potential danger. The events of the last months have left me a paranormal mess. It wasn't that I didn't trust Janice or Bryce to keep me safe, it was that I expected everyone in the world to attack me. I guess loosing members of your family can do that to you. Losing my brother and my mother have definitely made me into a different person. I didn't know if I could ever get my life back to how it was. I eventually summoned the courage to get out of bed when I deemed the room free of threat. I walked into the en suite. There was a new toothbrush and a tube of toothpaste lying there waiting. Good thing because in all my rush last night, I seem to have forgotten to bring mine along. I brushed my teeth and took a shower even though it was freezing and I could do without one I needed to cool my head, afraid that it might explode I still wore the same clothes I had on yesterday. Signature cargo pants an
The Midnight Sun Chapter Fourteen
Chapter 14 I have to wait until twenty-four hours and if I didn’t hear from either of them, I could make an official complaint. There was no reason why my mother and brother would be abducted. We have not received any threats. She must have gone out in a rush and forgot to take her phone, or leave a note, or shut the doors. That’s what the police officers said in their halfhearted attempt to a supposedly ‘naive’ seventeen year old girl calm. While they were talking, they didn’t believe themselves, I didn’t believe them, they knew I didn’t believe them either it was sad watching them really. They looked so uncomfortable. From the condition my house was in, it was clear that foul play was involved. When they asked me if I had any family to stay with as I was a ‘minor’, I told them my boyfriend’s family were close friends with purse. I didn’t have any other family and I wasn’t sure if they weren’t going to throw me to the system at the slightest opportunity. They might not, since I
