Mount Olympus [6]

Jessa

I don't respond, not looking at him.

My dad appears again, studying me before looking at me, "C'mon," He crouches before me, "Lets go home."

I don't hesitate, standing and wiping my eyes before dissapearing with him.

I don't care if he hurts me anymore. I just don't.

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Riley

I let him lie down with me and cuddle into his chest.

Chase

I call after Jessa, but she disappears. Shaking my head, I walk back inside and tell Jace and Rayah.

````
Grayson

I wrap my arms around her and rest my chin on her head.

Rayah

I freeze when I hear what Chase tells me, grabbing his wrist, and flashing us to her house, "We're going to find her."

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Riley

I smile, "Thanks."

Chase

I swallow and nod, trying to stay calm.

````
Grayson

I smile back, "No problem, sunshine."

Rayah

I hear yelling through the door, her dads voice, and freeze when I hear something get thrown into a table. Sh*t.

I swallow before sneaking us in through the back, her dad forcing her into her room.

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Riley

I feel his wings, fascinated by them.

Chase

No. I follow Rayah, fear for Jessa pumping through my veins.

````
Grayson

I smile and watch her.

Rayah

Her dad yells even louder and she actually yells back. I stay under the stairs, listening before I hear everything go silent. Thats not good.

,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Riley

I smile, "These are amazing."

Chase

I look at Rayah, "What do we do?"

````
Grayson

I smile back, "They're all yours."

Rayah

I don't answer, waiting until her dad comes down the stairs before flashing up there with him and looking for Jessa.

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Riley

I smile wider, "They seem like fun. I want some for my own."

Chase

I swallow and look as well.

```
Grayson

I match the smile, "I might be able to arrange that."

Rayah

I find her and swear, dropping before her and taking her face in my hands. She has a black eye, her lip bloody, and her broken wing is lopsided. Her hands shake and she opens her eyes, studying me and Chase, "W-What are you doing here?"

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Riley

I raise an eyebrow, "How?"

Chase

"Why did you go?" I ask, not answering her question.

````
Grayson

I run my hand through her hair, "It's a long explanation, complicated. I'll explain it to you when you decide whether you want it."

Jessa

I don't answer, looking down.

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Riley

I sigh, "Just explain it to me."

Chase

I let Rayah tend to her, standing where I am.

`````
Grayson

I sigh back and sit up slightly, "Where I'm from, some of the elders have the ability to gift a mortal with angel-like attributes and abilities. It's not easy though."

Jessa

I sigh, Rayah trying to help me but I don't let her, "I'm fine."

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Riley

I look at him, "And you can do that?"
