"Pretty good." Jake smiled, "You're finally learning that I don't sleep. I rest." He sighed, leaning against the wall. "Did you get any rest?"
Roxy picked the lock to her room, stepping out into the hall and moving in the shadows. "Curfew at 6? I don't think so."
ooc: I'm here. Roxy stepped into her room without arguement. It wasn't like she couldn't just sneak out later.
"I see power in you." The shadow hissed in her ear. "You could have it all. You could be like me, stand above the others..." The licked his lips in thought. "The boy...Jacob...you could have him...he'd look up to you... Isn't that what you want?" "No problem." Jake rubbed the back of his head as he stood up. "It was kinda my fault too."
The shadow chuckled, the sound of a low rumble deep in it's chest. "I mean that you are one of few that I may let live." Jake was so busy watching the walls that he ran headlong into Alyce, yelping and falling back wards. ooc: i'm sooooo sorry. I have to go cook dinner for my brothers. C you tomorrow.
The shadow chuckled behind her, drifting up to stand next to her. "The darkness doen't choose you, dearest. You choose it." Jake was walking down the hall, eyes shifting along the walls suspiciously.
Roxy frowned. "Rules?"
ooc: want me to play shadow at the moment?
Roxy saw Nova heading towards the kitchen and runs after him. "Wait!"
"Jasmine. No you can't. None of us can handle this alone. Not a single one of us should EVER be alone." His eyes begged her. "Jazz, listen to common sence."
Jake reached and grabbed her arm, trying to keep her from pacing like that. It was making him more nervous than he already was. "We won't let the shadows take you. I promise we won't. No matter what it takes. None of us are gonna die. We're all getting out of this."
Roxy saw he was thinking hard on something and raised an eyebrow. "I'm...confused. What's going on?"
Jake winced, realizing Jazz was upset because of him. "Jasmine...I love you...but in different ways than I love Alyce." He reached forward and tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear, tilting her chin up so she was looking at him. "I don't want you hurt. I don't want you upset...please, Jasmine. This isn't easy."
"Woahwoahwoah!" Roxy shook her head. "What the heck is going on?"
"Jazz...I can't help you if you don't talk to me." His eyes were concerned.
Roxy saw Anna and Nova collide and ran over. "Are you guys okay? What's the rush?"
Jake sighed, looking into her eyes seriously. "You aren't fine...now tell the truth."
"Are you sick?" Jake sits up in the bed. He had a slight headache from the shadow overpowering him but it was slowly disappearing. "You don't look so good."
Roxy rushed out of her room, quietly looking around the hallway. 'Why is it so quiet all the time? It's creepy. I wonder what's going on.'
I signed up a little while ago and I haven't gotten an answer yet.
