I felt a wet tongue against my face, I grumble and push it away until it started licking my hand. I sigh and wake up, my eyes blurred. All I could see was a black blob standing next to a white one, my eye sight slowly adjust and I saw Azure and Syril watching me, he was giggling. "So..I uhm, found out Azure is a boy." I blink, "Wha?-" Azure sat on my lap and licked my palm, then sets his paw on my hand. I gently stroke my thumb across his soft paw, "Yeah, I found out Azure is a boy..The hard way, and now scarred for life." He chuckled nervously, I peek out the window. It was sunset, geez. How long was that 'PowerNap'?

"Tell me the story, i'm interested." I said.

Syril's Point Of View--↓

I watch Jewel fall asleep, she seemed at peace somehow. I stood and decided to get something to eat, Azure followed behind me. I take out the ingredients to make a sandwich and start as I spread on the mayonnaise. Azure sat beside me and whimpered the whole time, so I take out a piece of lunch meat and throw it in the air, what I didn't expect was for Azure jump in MY direction and snatch it. My body came in contact with Azure's and we fell on the floor, the first thing I saw is AzureSpot's and lets just say I almost came close to throwing up. I quickly push him off and he ran off back into the living room. "Never again.." I mumble.

Back In Jewel's Point Of View--↓

I was laughing, hysterical in tears. I tried not to but it was VERY hard, Syril huffed "Yeah yeah laugh while you can." I stifle my laughter, covering my mouth. Small giggles some how escaping, "So we need to go shopping for food ingredients so my mom will be able to nake something to eat, want to come?" I thought about it, but while that happened I heard Syril mumble "Mostly because I want company.." I pretend like I didn't hear " What'd you say?" I exclaimed loudly, he reddened "Nothing-" He said in a rather quickened pace. I giggle "Sure, why not." I slid some shoes on, since I already have my socks on. Azure's derpy-looking ears lowered which added cuteness to begging, I guess he wanted to go so I pat his head "Fine, just stay by my side and please don't attack anyone."

Azure barked in agreement and his tail wagged, we walked outside to find his Father in the driver's seat of thr car. I opened the door and sat in the back beside Syril, what had made me blush is when Azure smooshed in it made me almost topple over on him. His face was also visibly red, I chuckled nervously and his Father peeked over the mirror, stifling his laughter. I got up and shifted away, unable to bring up enough courage to say sorry. We got to the store in silence.

Syril's Dad gave him a piece of paper, probably so he doesn't forget what to buy. some money for it, we left the car, AzureSpot following beside me as ordered. As we entered, to me. It felt a bit..Off. Since it was only a few adults and alot of kids, most of the kids wanted to touch or pet Azure. Thank the lord most of them was entitled or whiney. We walked into a empty isle, MoonStar talked to me out of nowhere "Tell him, while nobody is around." I blushed "No! I-I can't, what if he wouldn't care?" I glance at Syril, "but..What if did?" I thought. I drew a slow sigh "Hey, Syril?" He leisured his pace and looked at me, not before getting some eggs. "Yes..?" I took another breathe, trying to calm down my thumping heart "Remeber what I said but couldn't finish because of that dog fight?" I could tell he was in thought before he seemed interested "Yes.." I mumble shakily "Well..I was going to say" I quickly bit the inside of my cheek. I couldn't. "I was going to say you are a good person, and I like that." I dropped a subtule hint instead, he smiled and I could tell it made him happier than before. We went to the bread isle and got some whole wheat, soon, Azure started growling, loudly. In a man's direction who was getting some yogurt, I calm Azure down and I caught a glance of his scar on his face. It couldn't be, could it? My face was pale. I acted casual again, but picked up Syril's pace and whispered to him "Its the man, I think he followed us back and to here." he glanced and saw he was gone. "We gotta get out of here fast," I nod and gently tug of Azure's tuff "Keep watch, but be quiet, ok." Azure stayed quietly but followed, going ahead and sometimes looking behind. He walked around in complete silence like he was some type of ghost.


We went to the cash register and payed before quickly walking out. Syril huffed "Stay here-" I blinked and stood, Azure snorted and sat. He seemed off ease, I wouldn't blame him..then, Syril came back over "Ok, I told him we'd go to the park then to Jack's house later on and play around for a few weeks so he doesn't have to be envolved." I nodded and we watched Syril's dad drive off. I shuddered and felt dizzy all of a sudden, I gained a massive headache and Syril looked at me "What's the matter?"

"Nothing-" I quickly mumble, "Just..- I just need to sit down." Azure chitters and bumped his nose into my stomach "Not now." I said firmly, he went behind me and had dipped his head, putting me on his back. I yelped out in surprise that he had done this action, I relaxed quickly because he was cold. I rested my body on him and he didn't seemed bother at all, Syril pats Azure's head and we walked off to Jack's house.

------------------------------

Jack answered, he glanced from me, to Syril, then Azure "What's going on now?"

Azure licked Jack's palm then walked into his house, I look around. It was a very big house, the living room and kitchen was the two things that took up most of downstairs. There was a circular couch instead of mulitple, then a solitaire one beside the tv. Jack startled me when he came out of nowhere "You can sit anywhere you'd like. But first could I check on your headache?" I squint and shrug "Sure.." Before I could even react I was flung over Jack's shoulder. I sigh slowly "Could Syril at least come?" like if on que, Syril was beside me. My headache had gotten worse, soon. Soon, I blacked out.

I woke up, gasping for air. My eyes had to slowly adjust, it was dark and empty "Hello?" I yelled out, confused "Jack! Did you put me in here? If this is a joke I-" I was cut off by a deepened voice "Oh no, my creation. This isn't a joke," I paused, then. I felt cold and pale "No- you can't be here - in..?" a terrific chuckle echoed around the place "I'm in your own thoughts. It's comfy in here, ain't it, little miss?" I snarl, he continued on "Your little friend, put up such a fight." I tilt my head in confusion, then I looked forward to see MoonStar, she had a muzzle on with chains around her arms, wings, and neck. I ran to her, but it felt like she was getting farther, it went on for awhile until I stopped, tired. "Why - why are you here?! What do you want?" Shepard had appeared in front of me, I stagger back. He was in Jail clothes, guess he finally had been caught. "Oh..I do want something, and if I don't get it. It'll be life and death between your only loved ones. And I know, you know what I want exactly." he cupped my cheeks and slid his hands down till they stopped at my sides, I shudder as he whispered into my ear when Shepard had hugged me "I want you. And if I don't get that, your lover and mom, will die before you."

My eyes gained glassy with tears, I hiss "No- no!" I try to push him away but my hands went through him. "You know where to meet me." Then, everything went dark again.

"Jewel..Jewel.....Jewel! Jewel! JEWEL!" A darkened light flashed into my eyes, I rub my head. My headache gone, I rub my eyes to find Syril shaking me. He had a worried look, Jack puts a hand on my shoulder "Jewel, you scared most of us half to death. Your eyes went dark and you was limp. It's been two hours ever since you fell asleep." I thought, "Two hours? How long has that asshole kept me there?" I huff "I'm sorry, I guess I was very tired after that headache." Syril had thrown his arms over me, I remember what had Shepard told me, that had forced me to gulp down a lump in my throat. I tightly hug him back, sighing quietly. I slowly let go, I saw Jack wink at me behind Syril's shoulder and I roll my eyes. Jack leaned on a wall "Guess your feeling better now?" I nod and drop from the hightened seat and walk out, feeling a bit itch. I scratched my back and huff. Being asleep for two hours had made me hungry, but I wouldn't go raiding people's fridge disrespectfully. So I sat on the couch and Azure hopped onto it then Azure army crawled onto my lap, surpisingly not that heavy, but definetely was very close to that. Azure had sniffed my back and whimpered, then licked my palm. I huff and felt behind my back, then pulled my hand back and saw black liquid. I shrivel up my nose and wipe it off,

what's growing on me?
