Eagle Crest Hallows [3]

Jace

I narrow my eyes at Indigo and smirk.

Payback time. You have dish duty.

He growls before shifting back and submitting.

Rayah

I sigh before stepping next to Indigo. "I'll help you."

Jace

"Helping him doesn't make it payback though," I whine.

Rayah

I look at Jace and nod, "Okay." I step away and walk back out, tired. I plop back on the couch and throw a pillow over my face, taking a deep breath.

Jace

As I'm walking out, Indigo sprays me with the water hose thingy attached to the faucet. I freeze and turn around, glaring at him. He keeps a straight expression, spraying me again.

Come at me, bro, He nods.

I suppress a chuckle before tackling him into the cupboard. It sounds like it hurt but he laughs, pushing me to the side and dropping his hand. A gust of wind and light pushes me into the furthest cabinet and all the lights in the house flicker out. He slowly stops laughing.

Oh...Uh...Sorry, He says.

I snap my fingers and blue light comes off from them, showing me that I literally crashed through the cabinet.

"Oh gods...Ray's gonna kill me," I mutter, trying to climb out.

Rayah

The lights flicker off and on and I hear someone crash into something. I run into the kitchen and see it all messed up and the cabnets destroyed.

"Holy Sh*t. What the f*ck happened!" I try not to yell, taking a deep breath.

Jace

I point at Indigo, who points at me. Doing so makes my light flicker out. I'm almost out of the cabinet when I realize that my left leg is stuck. I fall face first to the floor and laugh, trying to pull myself the rest of the way.

"He started it," I chuckle, "I was thrown into the cupboard."

Rayah

Red light slowly forms in my hands but then dissapears after I take a breath. Zoey walks in as a human and covers her mouth, looking at me. "Rayah...? Are you okay?"

I don't answer, not wanting to blow out and set the whole place on fire. She shakes me and I close my eyes. "Clean. It. Up." I say through gritted teeth.

Jace

I chuckle and look up at Rayah, smiling sheepishly.

"Sorry, Ray," I say, "I'll get someone to fix it."

Indigo walks over and tries to free me before realizing that the water is still running. He lets go and I trip him, causing him to hit his head on the sink. I swear as he drops, holding his forehead and shaking with laughter.

"Whoa, I'm so sorry, Nic," I say without thinking.

My smile fades and I swallow, looking up at him.

"Sorry, Indi. I didn't mean that," I say, freeing myself and falling forward again.

Rayah

I explode and Fire forms in my hands without my energy and my eyes turn red. "Rayah!" Zoey tackles me to the ground and pins me. "Calm. Down. It'll be okay." She whispers. I kick her off me and she flies into the wall. She ends up laughing and I stand, crossing my arms. "Who did that?! Who did all this?!" I ask, amazingly pissed off.

Jace

Oh god. Kaboom.

I help Indigo up and check his head before heading off to Rayah to help her calm down.

"Baby, s'alright. I'll clean it up and have someone fix it," I say, "You won't have to worry about a thing."

Rayah

"WHO DID IT?!" I ask again, my eyes turning even more red. "I don't give a sh*t of how your gonna fix it. I. Just. Wanna. Know. Who. Did. It." I say, trying to calm down, the fire in my hands still blazing.

Jace

"Mistress - I-I mean, Rayah, it was me," Indigo says, "I'm sorry. I was just playing around and things got out of hand."

"It's half my fault too," I say, afraid she might kill the brother I just got back, "I kind of tackled him into the sink."

Rayah

I nod, thinking of punishment and the fire in my hand destinguishes. "Indigo, You don't get any treats after dinner. Jace, Your..." I think. "You can't touch me again today." I nod, "Now, clean this up." I say, taking a deep breath and walking out.

Jace

I flash a smile, "Can't touch you? Now that's cruel, Ray. You'll be punishing yourself too."

Before she can hit me or throw a fireball, I duck and begin picking up the mess, Indigo chuckling behind me.
