Eagle Crest Hallows [3]

Alyx

Rayah crouches in front of me and I scramble away, wondering why they're calling me Alyx. My body feels lighter, though less nimble. I glance at my hands and find them more human then before.

W-what happened me?

A lock of black hair falls in front of my face and I feel it, desperately hoping it's an illusion that it's not purple.

"Alyx?" Jace calls, using the couch to stand.

Rayah

I sigh and move closer, "Y-You know me..." I said, "I wont hurt you." I said, keeping my distance, "Jace, C'mere." I call him over.

Alyx

I stare at my brother as he slowly makes his way over, bringing my knees to my chest.

"S'okay," He says, dropping beside me.

I glance behind him and saw a purple dog. Indigo. Without me.

"What the hell?" I look at Jace.

"I have no clue what you did, but you're here," He flashes a smile, making sure I'm real.

Rayah

I flash a smile, "Oh my gods you look just like Jace." I chuckled, looking at both of them. "That's so weird."

Alyx

I jump up and stumble off to the bathroom, looking at myself in the mirror. My eyes roll back in my head and I fall, everything going black.

Rayah

I sigh and call Jesse to come and get something before something happens. I send her a mind message and she instantly walks though the door, sunglasses on and her black jacket open. I walk over to her and slip something out of my pocket and give it to her.

Give this to him and tell him it's from me, Alright?

She nods and rushes off, jumping on her motorcylce and driving off. I sigh and walk back to Jace and everyone. "He alright?" I ask.

Jace

I catch Alyx before he hits the floor and drop where I stand, waiting for him to wake up.

"I hope so," I reply to Rayah's question.

God, how is this possible?

Rayah

I nod, "Bring him to the couch." I tell him, glancing out the window.

Jace

I glance at her, "You okay?"

I scoop Alyx up and bring him into the living room, setting him down and sitting on the hassock.

Rayah

I nod, going on my tip-toes to make sure Jesse got out of the naborhood. When she did I turned back to Jace, "Yeah."

Jace

I study her, "What's wrong? Don't do this again."

Rayah

I shake my head, "No, I'm fine." I say, leaning against the wall.

Jace

I study her, then shake my head.

Why can't she just be honest with me?

Rayah

I try to change the subject. "I'm going to Check on Lo and Rye." I say, walking outside.

Jace

I don't say anything as she leaves, slightly p*ssed that she wouldn't tell me. Alyx stirs and freaks out again. I hush him and make him sit still.

"It's alright," I say, suppressing a yawn, "You're fine."
