Horoscope part Ten

I leapt down from the roof, examining the landscape. It was around midnight, and I needed to get out. Thank Hera for my powers. I sighed as I felt the warm summer breeze brush against my face. I stared out to look at the evening sky. A full moon. I felt my heart pound against my chest as I gritted my teeth together. What was happening? I felt my body moving on it’s own towards the forest. I closed my eyes as I went into my mentality to figure out what was wrong.Izak, what’s going on? Aquarius. He’s trying to take over. He’ll stop soon. He can’t take you over for more than a couple seconds because you’re a leaderI felt my body loosen as I fell back against the grass, panting. Evan suddenly appeared before me, pulling me up by the loose cloth of my shirt. I stared up at him, pushing away as I gained my strength back.“Why isn’t it working? Surely Hera wasn’t stupid enough to put her trust in a traitor” He snarled. I felt the moisture in the air around us begin to form in my hand. He grinned as wind began to form in his hand.“You should know the limits of your own powers, Evan” I said, my face turning into a look of irritation. Evan smirked.“So she was being stupid. I see now. Zeus will be happy to hear this. But first, let me destroy you” He snarled. I grinned slowly.“This should be fun, creeper” I hissed. He grinned widely, running at me with the ball of wind. I let the water go suddenly as I flipped over him, then blasted a squirt of water at the back of his head.“Are you mocking me?” He asked, turning to face me sharply. I grinned. “Maybe” I said gently. Evan smirked as he gripped my throat suddenly. Fuck. I gritted my teeth together, trying to pull away. “You always were kind of annoying” He snarled, lifting me up. I kicked at him furiously, then cracked my elbow into his. His arm buckled, letting me go long enough for me to get a bit of distance. However, he grabbed the back of my shirt, spun me around and smacked me. I glared and punched him as he gathered my t-shirt in his fist. There was a sudden loud coughing noise. We both turned to see a cloaked figure leaping down from the roof. It stepped forward, pulling back his hood. I glared as I pulled away from Evan.“Yo, Aquarius. I thought it was your policy not to hurt girls. Besides, we’d better go seeing as how the experiment failed. Cancer’s the leader, thus you can’t just take her over to make her turn. Stop taking your frustration out on her.” Fallon stated as he stepped up next to Evan. Evan sighed, letting me go. I stepped away from both of them.“Why are you with Zeus?” I asked. Both of them exchanged glances.“Because we want to be” Evan stated.“Why? What’s it to you?” Fallon asked, raising an eyebrow. I shook my head.“Never mind. Get off of my yard” I hissed. Fallon took a couple steps backwards until he was standing on the line between the street and my yard. He grinned.“As you wish, princess” He said, smirking. I stepped towards him and jabbed him in the stomach.“You jerk. Leave.” I snarled. He grinned, pulling a lock of my hair to his lips.“What if I don’t want to?” He asked flirtatiously. I turned to Evan.“He’s almost as bad as you” I muttered. Evan grinned and looked to Fallon. Fallon let go of my lock of hair and looked back at him.“You know, she is alone. We could just snag her and take her back with us.” Fallon stated. I stared between them, stepping away as I held up my fists. Evan grinned grabbing me and holding me against him.“You have a point. Lets go, Cancer” He stated, lifting me up over his shoulder. I growled and attempted to wriggle away, but Fallon was right behind him, turning into Capricorn. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, but before I could let it out, there was a forceful hand over my mouth. I stared up at Fallon who held out one hand as my body was bound in blue flames. I attempted to wriggle away again, but nothing worked. I sighed, then smiled realizing that there was a way to get out. Izak. Send out the help transmission wow. You didn’t think of that sooner?I’m human before I’m Cancer It only took about three minutes for the first sign that someone was there. My body was rolled onto the grass as Evan and Fallon transformed. I turned around to see Mara standing there as Markus appeared beside her. Markus dashed up to Fallon, cracking him in the mouth.“You asshole! Leave her alone!” He shouted, tackling him to the ground. Fallon glared and sat back up, wiping a bit of blood that dribbled from his mouth.“You think I’m bad? You’re the one who‘s leaving him to die!” He snarled, lunging at Markus. He sat on top of him and punched him in the cheek. Markus’s eyes shone red as he blasted him off of him, then leapt back up.“You’re the one who made the choice of betraying us!” Markus shouted. Fallon ran back at him, shooting flames at him.“You betrayed Zeus first! You betrayed all of us! And now he‘s going to die!” He shouted. Everyone had stopped what they were doing and were now staring at the siblings. I aimed my hand at the flames, shooting water at them and loosening them until I slipped out. I ran up between the two, dousing them with water.“Will you two shut up?” I hissed. They stared at me dumbfounded. I glared at the two brothers. Fallon glared between us.“Well, what ever. Evan, I’m leaving. Do what you want.” He snarled. Evan raised an eyebrow.“Last time I checked I was the leader” He growled. Fallon shrugged, changing back.“Sorry. I just can’t do this right now” He stated, vanishing into flames. Evan sighed and looked back at us, then also vanished into flames. I sighed, dropping down onto the ground, feeling everything fall loose. Mara walked over and gave me a gentle hug.“I’m going back to bed. Give me a call if something goes wrong again.” She said softly. I nodded, then heard her footsteps vanishing into the distance. I sat, still in stunned silence. I felt Markus grip my arm angrily and pull me to my feet.“What were you thinking? You could have been captured! Where would that have left us then? And what could have happened to you?” He shouted angrily. I looked at my feet.“Who is him?” I asked. I felt Markus’s grip on me loosen.“W-What?” He asked. I paused for a moment.“… Fallon said you betrayed him… Who is him?” I repeated. Markus looked to his feet as well.“… My father. He died in a car accident a few years ago… Zeus promised to bring him back to life if we stayed on his side and enforced his rules… but I switched to the light… and now Fallon is in the dark…” He muttered. I felt my heart pound as I heard this. I felt Markus’s presence begin to fade off. I flipped my head up and ran towards him, hugging him tightly as tears streamed down my eyes.“I’m sorry, to both of you… I wont say I understand how it feels because I know I don’t… but… Im so sorry!” I sobbed, looking up at him. Markus stared down at me, his eyes looking watery. He grinned and ruffled my hair.“It’s ok. I’d much rather protect you then bring back the dead. My parents were divorced so my mother isn’t in any pain. Fallon is just childish and is chasing a dream that he doesn’t realize wont happen” He said calmly. I stared at him, touching his cheek.“If you don’t believe it then why are you crying?” I asked, feeling the moisture on his cheek. He leaned down.“Because… I’m happy that I’ve met someone as caring as you…” He said softly, then kissed me on the lips. I pulled away for a moment.“You’re not Fallon, are you?” I asked. I felt him laugh as he wrapped his arms around me.“No. I‘m not this time...” He whispered gently, kissing me again. This time I accepted.(sorry this one was so mushy near the end XD next one will have more awesometastic action :D)
