chapter 28 (dying)
"Is this going to hurt?" Connor asked Crowley when he saw all the things he needed to say the spell.
"It will only hurt if you let it hurt." He simply answer.
Connor gave me a look of fear and confusion, but I just shook my head at him.
This morning Alaric came to my room saying that Crowley would do it. He was fully recovered and said that he wanted to help. He knew when they attacked him that Abraham was inside of Logan. All this time when he lost his voice he wanted to tell us that.
I wanted to go alone inside Logan's head, but they wouldn't let me.
If Abraham is there and I'm alone bad things can happen. So Lina and Connor volunteer to come with me. It will be us three against Abraham.
We were standing in a dark room that was surround by candles. There were four tables in the middle of the room. Me, Lina and Connor need to lay on them in order for Crowley to do the spell.
"This spell have his risk's." He said when he turn back to us.
"I have to open up Logan's mind and transport yours in his."
I lick my dry and chapped lips listen carefully what he said.
"You are going to be in a really deep sleep, like a coma."
Okay coma is never a good thing.
I look at Libby who was scared. I think she was scared that something would happen to her brother.
"How do we wake up?" I Lina asked.
"I will pull you out of the coma if I know that something bad will happen."
Or if Abraham is too strong for us.
"Wait how are we gonna do this is? Logan isn't here, I mean Abraham." Ray asked.
Just then the door open. We turn around and saw Abraham with four guards next to him and Alaric. "Never mind." Ray mutter when they brought him into the room.
It's still hard for me to see him as Abraham when he have Logan's face. To my surprise he didn't fight back and just calmly walked towards us with the guards. "Hello Crowley it's nice to see you again." His voice was so dark.
It didn't remind me of him. Which is good I guess.
"I see you're finally caught." Abraham look down at his hand that was cuffed together. "Yeah, but not for long."
I rolled my eyes at him. If he thinks he's going to be free soon he's wrong. "Let's began." Crowley turned to us and nodded his head.
Me, Lina and Connor walked to the tables and lay down on them. I let out a deep breath looking up at the ceiling. This has to work. I look to my left and saw Abraham lying on the table next to me. A smirk was planted on his face before he looked away from me.
This isn't good.
He is way to calm about all of this.
"Okay close your eyes and relax." I close my eyes and try to let everything go.
I hear Crowley say some words in a langue I didn't understand.
Suddenly the air was knocked out of my lungs and I was gone. Flashes of bright lights flash before my eyes. Purple, green, red, yellow, blue every colour. The colours when away and I'm surrounded by starts. It was like I was in space, but I could breath.
With a great force I fell down into a dark hole. Wind was the only thing I could hear while I fall further fast. My eyes were watery from the coldness and the wind. The stars disappeared above me the more I fell down. I screamed my lungs out, but I don't think I could hear it.
My hands when in front of disparately trying to grab something, even though nothing was around. Something warms hits my back and I look behind me. It was like I just broke through the atmosphere of the earth.
I fell with a higher speed down seeing clouds around me. I don't know what was happening, but I was afraid I would die. I could feel the ground coming closer behind me, but I was afraid to look.
Did Crowley mess up the spell and send us to space and now we were falling down? Trees appear above me when I fell through them. The leafs and branches hitting my back while I continue falling. I'm going to die, I'm going to die! Quickly I turn around, quickly realizing that that was a bad idea.
Now I can see my dead coming closer.
The ground was only a few feet away now. I close my eyes bracing myself when I knew what was coming next. When I thought I would hit the floor I stopped in mid-air. I open my eyes slowly only to see the ground a few inches away.
The power or force that was holding me let go and I fell on the ground. I took a deep breath before looking up. I was in a dark forest. Was this Logan's mind? It's all dark and well dark. It remind me of the forest in Tervene. You could particle feel the darkness in the earth underneath my hands.
Wait, where's Connor and Lina? Suddenly two screams came from above me. I look up and saw Lina and Connor falling down just like I did a few seconds ago. Good so I wasn't alone then. Just when they were about to hit the ground they stopped.
A second later they fell to the ground.
"Are you guys okay?" I both help them up looking if they didn't got hurt.
"Yeah I'm fine." Lina said brushing some dirt from her jeans.
"A little bit shaky, but I'm fine too." Connor said.
"Are we inside Logan's head?" Lina sked looking around.
I sigh nodding my head. "Yeah, pretty dark huh?"
I hear Connor scoff. "Dark is not a word for it. Try evil."
I nodded my head raising my brows. "Yup evil."
"How are we going to find him?" I asked Lina.
"I think you can."
I frown my brows looking confuse. "How?"
I don't know the map of his head. I barley know my own head.
"Just think about him and let it guide you." I gave her are you kidding me look and she just nodded her head.
"Okay then."
Think of Logan, think of Logan, think of Logan.
"Hazel." My head snapped to the side when I heard a voice.
"Do you hear that?" Lina and Connor both looked confuse at me.
"Hear what? It's dead silent here." Lina answer.
Huh I swore I hear someone saying my name.
"Hazel." Someone is calling me.
I began to walk a direction from where I thought I hear the voice.
"Hazel." It's Logan.
I hear him.
He's calling for me.
I started to run not knowing if Lina and Connor are behind me. I jump over logs and rocks trying not to fall on my face. I ran into some high bushes, but stopped when I came out of them. I hear Lina and Connor behind me.
"Hazel what are you?" Connor stopped when he saw what was in front of us.
It was an open space, with in the middle a cage. On every side of the cage hanged some lanterns that gave it some light. My eyes when to the person in the cage and my heart stopped beating.
Logan.
Slowly I walk closer, afraid if I would go quick he would just disappear.
"No let her go alone." I here Lina say to Connor.
I don't mind them coming with me. It's not like I have any secrets from them with Logan. When I came closer I could see him. His heard hang low in front of him leaning against the thick bars of the cage. The blond locks falling down in front of his face.
His hands held the cage tightly in his hand. The knuckles on his hand turn white from how tight he was holding them. I was only a few inches away from it and I was so scared. I was scared that this wasn't really him. I was afraid if I would say something or do something all of this would be gone and I would wake up in my bed.
"Logan." My voice was barley a whisper.
"Stop." His voice was so hoarse.
It was like he didn't spoke in ages.
"Logan it's me." I tried again.
A low growl escape his throat, but still he didn't look up. "Stop torturing me with her voice!" He scream bang his fist on the bars. The cage shook, but it didn't break.
"Logan it's really me. Please look up." My voice was now a little bit louder.
I can't imagen what Abraham had done to him in the time he was locked up here.
"No this is just a trick. Hazel isn't really here. I'm not gonna break do you hear me! I'm not gonna stop fighting you to be with her!" Blood began to glide down the bars from the tight grip he had on them.
if I don't do something quick and convince him that this is real then all of this is going to be for nothing.
Slowly I reach out for his hand. My warm hands cupped his stroking the back of them. His skin felt so cold, it almost felt like ice. This wasn't normal for him. Logan was always warm no matter what the weather is. I could feel him let out a small gasp when my hand touched his.
Slowly he lifted up his head. My brown eyes met his hazel eyes who were hidden behind his blond locks. My eyes scanned his face and I knew that he wasn't okay. His skin was pale, red was covering the skin around his eyes, his lips who were normal the soft colour pink was now a lifeless blue white.
"Logan." I breath out trying not to cry.
"It's really you." His voice was something that I didn't had heard in a long time. I hear Abraham talk with his voice, but it wasn't Logan and somehow I heard that.
I nodded my head.
"It's really me." I said in a small laugh.
My right hand let go of his and I reached out of her cheek. He closed his eyes when I let my hand rest on his cheek stroking it slowly with my thumb.
"What did he do to you?" I whisper my voice cracking at the end.
Logan open his eyes and gave me a smile. "He try to break me, but he didn't. I had a to strong will to let him break me. Something was keeping me from giving up."
His thumb stroke my hand slowly that was still on his.
"Yeah? What was it?" I wanted to stay with him and keep him save, but I know that the time was running out.
"You. You kept me from losing this battle. Every time I thought of giving up you came into my mind." He looked at me with adoration.
A tear slide down my cheek.
"Logan we want to help you, but we don't know how."
He laugh shaking his head. "Babe you can't help me. The only thing you can do is getting Abraham his body and put him in it, but you can't do that. He will create darkness over all the lands."
I shook my head. "There have to be another way."
I don't want to give Abraham his body. I'm the only one who knows where it is, but I'm not planning on giving it to him.
"You can kill me so that both me and him die."
No everything but that.
"No! I don't know if I can bring you back from the dead again. I don't even know how I did it the first time." Logan smiled and I let go of his cheek.
"That's because you were powerful enough. You're still powerful Hazel you just have to believe it."
"If I'm that powerful why can't I save you?" I asked in a shaky voice.
"Because maybe I'm not meant to be saved." No that's not true.
If he isn't meant to be save, why is he my protector and soulmate. If fate brought us together for true love, why is life ripping us apart.
"No that isn't fair."
He laugh putting his hand on my cheek. I didn't care that there was blood on it.
"Babe life is never fair. You just have to try to live it."
There have to be a way without giving Abraham his body and killing Logan. "No I don't choice to believe that. There is a way to save you I just know it. I don't care what it will take."
Logan sigh knowing I was to stubborn.
"Hazel I don't want you to get hurt. I know what my family is capable of and if you get hurt because of me it might just be the end of me." I close my eyes licking my lips before opening them back.
"Please let me fight for you. It's the only thing I can do right now."
Not answering he pull me closer putting his forehead against mine. The space between the bars were just big enough for us to put our heads through.
"You're really stubborn." He breath out with his eyes closed.
I let out a chuckle closing my eyes as well.
"I won't be there to stop you." He whisper.
"I also won't be there to protect you."
It's gonna be dangerous I know, but I can't let him life like this.
"I will be okay. I have people who can help me. People who are amazing at what they do."
He brush his nose against mine making me smile.
"I miss you." I breath out
"I miss you too."
Our moment was ruined when things around us started to shake. I knew what that meant. Crowley was pulling us back. I don't want to leave yet.
"Times running out." I said quickly looking back at him.
"If you want to save me you need to know one thing." He quickly said.
I nodded my head for him to go on.
"I'm dying."
It was like someone was stabbing me with a knife in my chest. Logan saw I was struggling to say something, so he grabbed my face again and kissed me.
I held my breath when I felt his lips crashing on mine. I closed my eyes and let him kiss me. I forgot where we were and what is happening around us. The only thing that matters was us two. If this stupid bars wouldn't be here I would have pulled him closer to me.
I wanted to feel him. I wanted to ran my through his hair. I wanted to feel his hands ran up my body. I just wanted to hold him close. I was melting in the kiss. He kissed me more roughly when another earth quick shook the ground. It was like he try to melt us together the why he kissed me.
He pulled away lightly taking a deep breath, before giving me a small kiss. I open my eyes and looked into his. His Hazel eyes were staring right into mine.
"Why are you dying?" I said in between a breath.
"My body can't handle two souls. Abraham is stronger, so he's obviously winning this battle."
I don't want to lose him again.
Not again.
A loud scream ego through the trees.
"You need to go he's coming and I want you out of here before he's here." Logan said letting go of my cheek.
"I'm gonna do everything I can to save you, I promise." I whisper taking his hand.
Logan smiled bringing my one hand to his mouth. He kissed it giving me a small smile.
"I know you will. Now go!" He let go of me and I took a step back.
I turn around and began to run back to Lina and Connor.
"Crowley is calling us back." Lina said when I reach them.
I turn around to look at Logan one less time and saw him waving at me. A smile came to my face, but it quickly was replace by confusion when I saw a dark figure apportion from the trees behind his cage. My eyes widen when I saw that it was Abraham.
Logan saw my fear and turn around. His head snapped back to me when he saw him.
"Go now!" He yelled.
Abraham appeared in front of him in a blink of an eye.
"We need to go now!" Connor took my arm and dragged me through the bushes we first came through. We ran further through the dark forest.
I was suddenly ripped off the ground and thrown into the air. It was all happening all over again. Instead off falling down I flew upwards to space. The lights and colours came again. My eyes shot open and the familiar room from before came into my view.
