Chapter 7
The three went to find the three others that they chose, Daniel, Alex, and Reanna (Re-Anna). This Daniel is a hot headed one that doesn't do well with orders, but he does the job even if it is a little overdone. Alex is a smart one that knows how to handle battles or get around them if needed be, but he can't really fight well. Reanna is a good fighter, top of her class, and she is almost as good as Daniel, but she can also have a temper sometimes and her element is fire whereas the other two don't have powers.
"Where do you think they are" Cindy asked Cecilia and Peter who was looking around at other things during their walk wasn't paying attention.
"Huh" he asked and Cindy and Cecilia looked at him and started to crack up in laughter.
"I think that Reanna is going to be in the training room, and the other Daniel will be in another training room, but I don't know where Alex would be...maybe the tech center" Cecilia said and they all started to head to the training center to try to find the two hot heads. It wasn't a really good idea to put two people that are quick to get angry together, but it was all they needed if a fight were to happen on the way to find a lost Daniel, and their friend. Reanna was in on of the training centers, and Daniel was in the one next to hers, and they stayed quiet just glaring at each-other the whole walk to the tech center to find Alex. Cecilia stopped everyone just outside of the tech center and whirled on the two hot heads.
"Why are you just glaring at each-other" she yelled "do you have some kind of problem with each-other"
"Actually yes we do" Reanna said still looking at Daniel viciously "he was the one that almost got me and my team killed on our latest mission"
"And she tried to kill me afterwards for a tiny mistake that we all made" Daniel said
"Is it just me or are we going to have two Daniel's one our team when we are done with this mission" Peter asked coming up and everyone just looked at him in annoyance.
"Get your head out of the clouds and pay attention to what's going on around you Peter" Cecilia snapped and Peter shied away from him.
"Wait what does he mean by two Daniel's" Reanna asked looking at Cecilia expectantly and they all forgot about the rivalry for the moment.
"I will tell you what we are doing on the plane to Phoenix" Cecilia said and then stepped in the building
"Wait we are going to Phoenix, like the Phoenix in Arizona" Daniel said excited
"Why are you so happy about it" Cindy asked him looking at him like he was crazy.
"Because the Raven Clan is there and ironically for the Raven Clan and the Phoenix clan to be in each-others named places they are still really cool" he said "do you think that we'll get to see their base"
"I don't know, maybe" Cindy said and she went inside to find Cecilia who was just sitting in a chair waiting on the others looking at Alex who was a good distance away from them.
"So how are we going to do this" Cecilia asked them "he knows all of the exits and the fastest way out and he isn't really the mission type, but then again he has to go on this"
"Couldn't we just call him over to us" Cindy asked
"No ha already knows that we are watching him, but he is really good at showing it, and if we tried to go up to him or call him over he would be gone before we even had a chance to get him" Cecilia said and then Daniel pulled out a dart gun and shot two darts at him, and he caught the first one, but the second one got his arm and he fell onto his computer asleep. Everyone looked at Daniel like he was crazy, and he put his dart gun away and looked at them.
"What I got bored, and it's not like dodging two bullets is hard to do in a chair" he said and the others shrugged and went over to Alex. Then they carried him into a conference room and set him in a chair, and Daniel stood by the door and the other by the walls as they waited for him to wake up. He woke up a coupe of minutes later and looked around in fear, but when he didn't see a good enough escape he slumped in his chair in defeat.
"Looks like we got you trapped" Daniel said and scowled at Alex.
"Look we just want you to help us in this mission" Cecilia said
"Well I'm not going to work with him" Alex said pointing to Daniel
"Why not" Cecilia asked "he is going to be in this mission whether you like it or not, and you are going to be in this mission too"
"Then I want out" Alex said
"No"
"What can you do to stop me" Alex said
"Well one I can knock you out and bring you with, two you get an order slip and are forced to do this mission, three I can do both, or four you come along freely and you don't get any pain caused from it besides your long lasting hate towards Daniel" Cecilia said and Cindy was surprised that she had thought that through so perfectly on her side "and we are saving a colleague and friend of mine, Peter's, and Cindy's and that person is the other Daniel"
"Wait-wait-wait-wait" Alex said "so you are saying that we are actually saving the Daniel"
"Yes" Cecilia said "yes we are saving the one and only Daniel, recently he went off the radar and we have reason to believe that he is being hunted by werewolves, vampires, and everything else that can even the Raven clan is trying to find him, but we need to do it first"
"Why would everyone be trying to find him other than that he is being hunted, and that he could be dead by now" Alex said "can't he handle himself"
"Yes but Melissa is going crazy about him being hurt and she wants him home especially after he failed his last mission" Cecilia said
"Wait he failed a mission, and now we have to go and get him because of it" Daniel said "why us"
"Well you are all top of you class in different subjects, and even if one of you can't fight" Cecilia looked at Alex and he shied away in his chair "and if two of you are hotheads" she looked at Daniel and Reanna who were glaring at each-other again "you are still the best recruits for this mission"
"Okay I'll do it, but only because that Daniel is a very important person for Melissa, and she's a good leader" Alex said "so if she lost Daniel it would crush her, and this clan would fall apart"
"See what I mean" Cecilia said "you are always figuring out the best solutions to things, Daniel and Reanna are always protecting those that they need to, and those are the reason's why we chose you guys. I mean if Daniel and Reanna didn't protect each-other and their team even if their plan went wrong none of them would be here right now and there would be more stones and graves in our cemetery wouldn't we"
"Yeah I guess so" they both mumbled
"Good now get over your stupid grudges because that is exactly what they are and I expect this team to do well in this and come back with Daniel and with no one dead, okay" Cecilia said and everyone stood up straighter and they all left to the hangar. Then they got in a helicopter and flew to Arizona.
"Okay why didn't we use a plane instead of a helicopter" Alex said "it would've been much faster"
"I guess that I didn't think of that" Cecilia, who was driving it said "I guess that I was excited to drive one on a mission for her first time"
"Oh that's why we took this thing" Daniel said "you said that we should take it just in case something bad happens" and just as he said it a bullet went just past his head and then more came trying to shoot them down.
"You were saying Daniel" Cindy said while Cecilia was focused on trying to escape, not crash, and get to the ground safely. A rocket came and hit the tail and they all jumped out of it as the helicopter went crashing down into a small river.
"Well at least it didn't explode" Cecilia said as they all floated down on their parachutes, and then it exploded and a piece of the rotor went through her chute and she started to fall the rest of the way to the ground. Thankfully landing in the river broke most of their falls, but at the same time they had to swim over to land, and that was hard for them to do.
"Okay we need to stop saying things like that" Alex said when they got to land "it isn't going to help us if we keep on jinxing ourselves"
"Fine, but if I get--" Daniel was interrupted by Alex putting his hand over his mouth
"Don't finish that sentence" Alex said and Daniel made a fit and pushed him away sending him to the floor.
"Don't you dare do that again" he said advancing on him "don't do it again or I swear that I will kill you next time"
"Fine" Alex said getting up and brushing himself off
"Hey guys" Cindy yelled making them look at her "you two can fight with each-other after we get back home" and they both huffed, looked at each-other in hate and then went opposite directions to check on the others. Alex, Cindy, Cecilia, Reanna, and Daniel were okay and up, but Peter was unconscious on the ground. He was slowly waking up, and they all sat in-front of him while he woke up.
"Wow I thought that you'd sleep all day" Cindy said jokingly and Peter smiled still half asleep.
"I'm actually rather surprised that everyone got out without a scratch" Alex said "we should go though. Where do you think Daniel could be Cecilia"
"I don't know, but we should start at the Raven Clan's base, and spread out from there" Cecilia said and they all started to follow her, and she was following a digital map of where they were and the direction they had to go to the base. Then she realized something, and she turned to the others.
"If we were shot down" she said "then what shot us down, and why haven't we encoundtered them" and then they all realized something.
"Were in a dark forest, but who would live here besides dark and corrupt werewolves, and--" Alex was interrupted by some cackling "witches, they cursed this forest to make everything that a person said come true, so don't say anything that you don't want to come true aloud, and not even things that may seem good because the enchantment will make it bad one way or another"
"Where are the witches though" Cindy asked "I don't see them and they sounded far away"
"They are probably right next to us with their stupid enchantments and their annoying magic" Daniel said as he unsheathed a knife from his belt. Then he threw it at a tree that appeared out of no where and was getting closer by the minute and a lady appeared where the tree was clutching her chest that had a knife in it, and then she fell to the ground dead.
"Okay we need to run now" Daniel said after he got his knife back from her chest, and the others agreed as he wiped it off on her cloak and put it back onto his belt. Cecilia looked at her map and they all ran in the direction of the base trying to get out of the forest.
"Watch out for trees they'll follow you and pop up out of no where, but do not run into one because the witches will either kill, kidnap, or do something else to you while they have you in their grasps" Alex yelled as they all ran dodging trees and other random things that popped up out of no where. They saw a light up ahead as the end of the forest and it was close, but then Reanna ran into a tree and was lifted up into the air by it's 'branches' Daniel threw another knife at the tree and another witch with a knife in her back fell to the ground dead, and Daniel caught Reanna as she fell to the ground.
"You okay" Daniel asked as she got up and looked at the dead witch with a knife in her back fearfully and nodded, and then Daniel went over and got his knife, wiped it off, and put it back in his belt. Then they ran and got to the others who were already on the outside waiting for them, and then they all started to go head to the other side of the base which was another forest, but it was a less scary, and dangerous one than the dark forest behind them was.
