Horscope part Six

I opened my eyes slowly waking up to the sound of my cell phone alarm going off. I moaned and rolled over eyeing the time. No time to sleep in. I sighed, rolling out of bed and grabbing my bag and starting to prepare for the following day. I heard the familiar notification warning ringer on my phone and lifted it up to see that I had been texted. I stared at it curiously, for it was a number I had not seen before. That’s when it clicked. Markus. I opened it and began reading.

be careful today. The dark Aquarius is at your school today along with the dark Leo.

I rolled my eyes, despite the fact that he couldn’t see it and began heading out the door. It wasn’t like someone would jump me at school. My heart skipped a beat as I looked around, giving that thought a second take. As I walked something caught my eye. A figure standing in the distance. She stared at me as I stared back, her long dark hair flowing in the wind. I began walking towards her, for that was the direction I was going, trying not to blink. Soon it became to hard to bare and I blinked, the woman vanishing from my sight. I sighed, continuing my journey. I soon made it to the school, walking straight to the gym to take my exam. I sighed, standing in the large group of people crowded around. I sighed, prepping myself… but something in my gut didn’t feel right… was Markus telling the truth? Shaking my head I pushed the thought away and sat down in my desk, pulling out my pencil. Last exam… I sighed, relaxing. It was almost summer. One of the teachers stepped up to the front of the class, announcing we could write. Glancing quickly at the time, I began jotting down answers rapidly. Unfortunately I kept hearing a voice in my head giving me the answers.

the answer is-

shut it old cancer spirit

so you don’t want to ace this test?

it doesn’t matter if I do or not. I’m taking this in summer school

I see… fine then. Continue…

I continued on until a fainter voice came into my head.

where are you?

who is this?

are you near by?

excuse me?

wait for me, okay?

wait but- you’re gone aren’t you?

I sighed and continued working vigorously. The hour bell soon rang through the school as I looked down at my answered questions. I hurried to the back of the room, grabbed my bag and walked out. I walked into the outer world, feeling the crisper-than-usual summer wind kissing my cheeks. I sighed and closed my eyes, feeling complete serenity.“Taylor”My eyes shot open as I spun around to face my friend Evan. I smiled and quickly gave him a hug.“Hey Evan, what’s up?” I asked. Evan smiled darkly, the way he normally does.“Not much. Hey listen, can I talk to you for a bit?” He asked. I felt something in my gut die. I couldn’t explain it but something felt… wrong… I felt my foot turn to run.“Um, I’d better stay here and wait for Cassie… I have to talk to her about something…” I said calmly. Evan’s grin turned darker than usual (if that’s possible) as he stepped forward.“But it’s very important” He said, his voice sounding dark and eerie. I felt my heart freeze as I stared into his eyes, now turning a pale blue. He was Aquarius… but if our Aquarius was dead then that meant- I quickly turned and ran, but felt the air around be tighten around my body, trapping me. I cringed, but felt a sudden warmth and the wind bonds loosening. Aries stood in front of me, his hand engulfed in flames. I stared around me. A person was standing on the side walk, frozen. That must mean my attacker was here too. Aquarius grinned as his body was covered in a tornado, falling away to reveal a new version of the person I once knew as Evan. He held out his hand as my friend Cody stepped out, only he was now mutated and different, sporting a lion approach. Katie’s dark half… I glared at this dark Leo and began to step forward, but was blocked by Aries. He glanced backwards at me.
“Stay out of this. Every time you transform you risk having him take over.” He stated, lunging forward at Leo. Leo snarled and gripped his fist, flipping him over onto his back and breaking the cement around them. I stared straight into Evan’s eyes. Just what did he want with me?come on. You can’t expect to help by sitting out. He’s getting hurt out there I stared back at the fight, Cancer’s thoughts floating into my mind. I glared and began my mind battle with him.what can I do? Every time I transform, I risk having you take over oh, thanks.it’s truefine. Just help him. Its making me sad watching him. And you and I know you can kick Leo’s butt. fine. Just don’t take over and let me be in control. I don’t want to kill him, just get him to retreat. got it. I closed my eyes, transforming. I heard voices further away. Was he taking over? My eyes suddenly shot open as the water blasted away. I grinned as my hair hung down limply past my shoulders. I dashed towards Leo, the moisture in the air winding up in my claw. I blasted it into his face, watching him fly back. Leo smirked.“you’re not so cute when you’re kicking my ass, you know that?” He commented. I smirked, performing a back flip as he blasted fire at me.“Well, theres one upside. You just admitted that I’m kicking your ass” I stated, grinning as I leapt down, swiping at him. He leapt up and landed behind me, sweeping at my back. I ducked and kicked out, triping him. I grinned, steping on his chest.“See? Being short can be fun.” I commented. Leo grinned.“Yes, but where’s your boyfriend?” He asked. I looked around. Where was Aries/Markus? I grabbed some of the loose cloth on Leo’s shirt as he changed back, pushing him into a wall.“What did you do with him?” I snarled. Cody laughed. “Why don’t you find out?” He asked, suddenly vanishing into flames and burning away. I glared at the spot Cody once was, changing back. I suddenly received a text message.

To: TayaFrom: Markus

Don’t follow him. It’s a trap. I teleported out there trying to go after Evan as soon as he vanished. Sorry. Go find the others and go find the baby chick. He’ll communicate with you. Let me know when you find him.

I sighed. At least he was safe.

Are you coming?

I smiled as I listened to the small childish voice.

yeah, don’t worry. I’m on my way
