Horoscope Part Four

I stared at the phone, bored as I waited for something. Anything to happen. I sighed, standing up and walking out my bedroom door and downstairs to my kitchen, flipping through the paper. Finding nothing of interest, I shut the paper and walked back up stairs. I looked through my contacts, then clicked on the title “Cassie-belle”. I began pressing the keys on my phone rapidly.Hey. Wut r u up to? Wanna hang and talk about it?I clicked send and laid back down. I waited for what felt like a few hours, but was really just a couple minutes until Cassie texted back.Hey Not much and sounds goodI really don’t understand this at all…I clicked the reply button and began franticly texting again.Okay, meet me at… the corner by safe way I guess.Talk to ya soon ^_^I pushed down on send a bit harder than usual, but I didn’t break the phone (thank god). I pushed my phone into my pocket and began heading out. But the feeling of being followed continued. I bit my lip and continued on, tying to ignore the feeling. I cringed as I walked, sensing things around me. I felt my heart quicken. What was going on? I stopped for a moment as everything around me seemed to slow down. I turned around, seeing a cloaked figure standing behind me. I turned to it as time stopped completely. He threw his cloak away as his hair changed white as well as his eyes. He grinned darkly as he stepped forward.“Good evening, Cancer.” He hissed as he lifted a hand. Wind began picking up in his hand becoming visible to my eye. I gave him a strange look.“Okay, I don’t know what I did to piss you off, but im sorry. I have something to do right now.” I stated, dashing past him. He threw the wind at my feet, causing the pavement to explode and knock me away. I cringed as I fell towards the ground, but felt no pain. I stared at my skin. Not a single scratch. I looked back up at him and began backing away nervously. He grinned stepping forward.“Perhaps now you will remember who you once were…” He muttered. “let me out…” a voice hissed in the back of my head. I glared and tightened my hands into tight fists.“WHAT’S GOING ON!” I shouted as water shot out from the ground. The man grinned as the world began speeding up again and he vanished into the hole he had created. I shook my head and took off towards where Cassie and I were supposed to meet. She stood there, eyeing me strangely. I reached up and touched my forehead, feeling something wet and sticky. I guess that happened before. I shook my head.“It’s nothing. Come on. Lets go for a walk” I said calmly. Cassie nodded as we began walking down the street.“yeah, so I was walking down when some creepy-ass cloaked figure appeared out of no where and made time stop” I explained. Cassie shot me a glance“He made time stop?” She asked. I nodded.“Yeah and then I was blasted upwards by some wind he shot at me, but it didn’t hurt because my skin became tough, well after I got this one cut.” I said calmly. Cassie looked at it and nodded.“You want a band-aid for that?” She asked. I nodded.“Yes please.” I said as she reached into her bag and pulled one out. I took it from her and attempted to put it on, but failed to do so. Cassie took the band-aid and laid it over the small wound.“There you go.” She stated. I smiled and nodded“Thanks. Anyways back to my story. I began feeling something swelling up inside of me-” I started, but was interrupted by Cassie.“Wait…” She said, cocking her head to one side in thought,” You felt something swelling up inside of you? How long ago was this?” she asked. I shook my head.“Maybe five to ten minutes ago?” I said, trying to remember how long ago that had actually happened. Cassie laughed slightly. I cast her a look.“Why?” I asked. Cassie shook her head.“It’s ironic. About five to ten minutes ago I felt the world around me slow down and I felt the need to hurry and find you… on top of that it was like I had a GPS system in my brain… were you almost right in front of your house?” She asked. I nodded.“Yeah, it was just up the street, on the corner of Ivywood.” I stated. Cassie nodded and opened her mouth to say more, but Katie, Saul and Mara leapt out of no where angrily.“Are you ok?” Katie asked. Cassie and I stared at them.“Did you all sense it too?” Cassie asked. All three of the newcomers nodded. “What’s going on?” Saul asked. A voice rang through the sky.“It’s very simple if you think about it” It stated. There was a burst of flames as Markus appeared, “You’re all possessed by the light side of the horoscope.”
