Fighting Gods, Saving Lives and A little bit of Forbidden Romance

Phoenix.

Science is boring, so is English, maths, religious education, history, geography and whatever other lessons me and Dylan did in this stupid English boarding school for under eighteen’s of ours.

Dylan and I are best friends. I could say we are more than best friends, but I can’t think of the right way to put it… so you won’t get the wrong idea. Maybe I could say we were like brother and sister, but they always argue and take the piss out or each other…so, no. Dylan and I have a type of connection with each other, he knew when I needed space or when I needed comforting, he could tell when I was about to breakdown in tears or randomly start laughing. People, who hadn’t met us before, just assumed we were actually brother and sister though we look nothing alike. Part of the reason was we were the only boy and girl allowed to share a cabin together on school grounds. That was the only reason other than you hardly see us without one another I could think of, because like I said we looked nothing alike, Dylan had scruffy hair, as black as ebony with a small streak of electric blue at the front, his eyes were thee same colour as the streak-electric blue. I had hazel brown hair that was wavy and hung loosely just above my waist I had a streak of aquamarine in my hair, and just like Dylan’s, my streak matched my eyes.

“Oi!” Dylan’s shout to me knocked me out of the daydream “What!” I answered back to him; he looked quite offended so I give him a look saying sorry so he knew it was safe to smile. “Will you come drop these files of with me, down at the office?” I agreed and walked out of the classroom that was lined with book shelves holding play scrip’s the walls were navy and white- The schools colours.

As we were walking, files in hands, the ground started to shake, I had no idea what was happening, because it wasn’t everyday there was an earthquake in England. A few bricks were coming loose from the main building, and pillars from the courtyard were we are crashed to the ground, The earthquake didn’t stop…and I didn’t know what to do, so I held on to Dylan for dear life… until I accidentally let go

“Ow!”

Dylan

As soon as Nixxie (my name for Phoenix) fell and got knocked out, I tripped over a brick and got knocked out and I had the strangest dream… It was some guy talking to me saying

Hello, Dylan get to Washington now!

Everything you need is in the safe under

Phoenix Andersons bed

Hurry the Gods are Angry…

Then I woke up… and I thought about the dream… it made perfect sense and no sense at all… I understood the words but what did they mean and was it true?. I got up at the sound of Phoenix’s groaning. She was half sat up going “ow…ow…ooowwwww” I walked over to her side and helped her stand up. She stared at me for a moment then asked me “Dylan…did you have a dream telling you to go to Washington…?” I stared at her in amazement “yea… I also got told of some crazy dude that everything was under your bed in a safe” I told her “yea that happened too..” she looked confused but was still rubbing her head wincing. We looked at each other for a while until I decided to ask: “Well what are we suppose to do?” she thought for a while then she smiled… “What do you think?” she said in a very smug tone then grabbed my arm and dragged me to our dorm…

When we arrived she walked over to her bed a lifted up her mattress with ease ( she was really strong, trust me you wouldn’t want to get on her bad side) and stopped and stared I went over by her side…and I saw it.

There was an open safe under her bed… containing two one-way plane tickets, stash of money, and valid American driving licences. I was shocked I grabbed the plane tickets to check they were real, they were I turned to face Nixxie “Pack your bags and get changed, the plane leaves in six hours…” she had a glimmer of excitement in her eyes, I was excited two but one part of the dream was bothering me The gods are angry what did it mean? I have no idea but Nixxie was taking it well.

I got changed and packed my bags, I was dressed in a Jacket, baggy jeans and pumps, Phoenix was taking longer, but she was a girl what did you expect? Finally she was ready, she entered the bedroom from the bathroom lugging a bright pink, black and blue suit case behind her. She was wearing a knee length dress, tights and converse high-tops…with a flower clip in her hair to top it all off, she looked amazing.

Phoenix

We ran to the entrance of the school, and saw a taxi, I asked him to give us a lift to the airport and he seemed to know us “ You two are Dylan and Phoenix I suppose?” I was surprised he knew us, but after everything that had happened I suppose it was normal…

Me and Dylan threw are suitcases in the boot of the car, and got in the taxi.

It took us about an hour to get to the airport, all through the journey it was just quietness, me and Dylan both knew what we wanted to talk about but we couldn’t, because we had no idea who this taxi driver was, just because he knew are names, was no exception.

When we arrived, the taxi driver got our suitcases out of the boot and then drove off leaving us stood at the entrance of a very big airport…

We walked up to the stand were you get your passports and tickets checked, then hand in your suitcase we was expecting something to go wrong like our passports were out of date of something. But everything when smoothly… we ended up having a few hours before the plane was due, so we decided to use some of the money we had been given, as half of it was pounds and half dollars. We when to KFC for some food, then looked round duty free, Dylan bought me a small bottle of a perfume I wanted and then we just bought a few books and waited

We finally boarded the plane, it was packed, I felt abit claustrophobic and freaked out Dylan seemed at ease and settled into his seat… as I sat beside him I started to think…what did the gods are angry mean? I asked Dylan, he said “ Nix, I don’t know but whatever it is it think its true…everything else has been…” then he lifted up the seat arm and fitted it between out seats. He put his arm around me and I leant against him “ Don’t worry Nix everything will be ok” he kind of reassured me, but I couldn’t be possibly sure…

After I while I fell asleep…
