Luke threw his arms up to cover his face and fell back as flame exploded from the damaged cruiser and enveloped Kylina.
Kylina! he screamed.
A grim smile crossed Jaredds face. The flames died down to reveal Kylina hunched down on the ground. Mist swirled around her and disappeared as she looked up. Jaredds smile was replaced by a look of fury. He surged forward.
Jaredd! Stop! a voice shouted, bringing the cop to a stop.
The Immortal turned toward the voice, his mouth turning down in a snarl. Damon stood with his fists at his side. Jaredd reached toward the flame. It flared up furiously and leaped forward to encircle him. Jaredd stood in the middle of the flames. He pointed to Damon and the fire rushed to do his bidding. Damon threw himself out of the way just in time. He felt the searing heat pass by.
Dont make me do this. Damon pleaded.
You will all die! Jaredd shouted.
Jaredd! Joyce screamed. No!
Her cry fell on deaf ears. As Jaredd reached out to the fire once again Damon struck. He threw out his fist as if he was throwing a punch and Jaredd was knocked to the ground. The fire, now without control, shrunk. As Jaredd jumped to his feet Damon reached out and drew the fallen gun to his hand. He quickly took aim and fired as Jaredd brought the fire back up to a raging furnace. The Immortal stiffened, his eyes wide in surprise. The fire died down and he collapsed. Shaken, Damon dropped the gun. With a fearful cry, Joyce ran forward to the fallen Immortal and knelt down next to him.
Jaredd, answer me! she begged.
Sirens split the air as an ambulance raced toward the scene. People crowded around the two Immortals in the street but refused to get close. Kylina stood next to Luke, her hand over her mouth. The ambulance slid to a stop and three paramedics jumped out. One, a young woman, ran to Joyce, quickly kneeling down to check Jaredd's pulse. The two met eyes and the paramedic nodded.
Get the stretcher over here! she barked. We need to get him to the hospital.
The two men scrambled to do as they were told. The woman said something to Joyce before helping to hoist Jaredd onto the stretcher.
Next to Luke, Nathaniel pulled out his phone and pushed a few buttons before holding it to his ear.
It's me. he said after a moment. We've got a problem here. Jaredd just tried to kill Kylina.... No, she's fine....Jaredd is in an ambulance right now.....Yes, Raine is with him....How am I supposed to know?.....Fine. He hung up and walked toward Joyce. Korin wants us to meet him in twenty minutes down by the river.
Joyce nodded, unable to speak.
Nathaniel put his arm around her shoulders. Hey, it'll be okay. Raine is with him and its only a single bullet wound.
Luke reached toward Kylina and saw she was trembling. Her hand was still over her mouth and she looked like she was fighting against tears.
I dont understand. She stammered. I didnt do anything.
Its not your fault. Luke said softly. Come on. Well find out what happened.
She nodded and let Luke lead her toward the others.
Okies, just a small sample. Very small. lol. Honest remarks, kk?

Still workin' on my own novel--hopefully. It's the only thing that brightens my day now. If I didn't hate academic writin' so much and my scholarship wasn't based on pre-med, I'd major in English. >.> School is takin' away from my novel time. Hehe... I day dream more than I study or take notes; that's how bad my characters have a hold of me.
Neh, I'd rather type my story 'til my fingers bled than do school work anymore.
