AUD

'''I sadly gazed upon Rita’s still silent face. It’s been about a day and she still hadn’t shown any signs of movement. Her usually neat and shiny hair was tangled in a halo around her head. IV’s were sticking out of both her arms as I just sat there listening to the heart monitor beep. Beep. Beep. The sound was haunting me. Why so randomly? Why so quickly? She was fine a couple of days ago...With all the silence, my thoughts drifted back to years ago...'''



“YOU PROMISED TO STOP DOING THIS!”

“I NEVER MADE ANY PROMISE TO YOU!”

“I CAN’T KEEP LIVING WITH YOU BEING SO DISHONEST WITH ME AND THE GIRLS!”

'''“SHUT UP! I WON’T HAVE YOU DISRESPECTING ME! GET OVER HERE! YOU WANT SOME OF THIS? MORE? MORE? THAT’LL TEACH YOU NOT TO YELL AT ME!”'''

'''I sat shaking in my bed listening to my parent's fight again. Mom was screaming in fear as dad dealt her his usual Friday night blows. The night when he went and got drunk...and took the rest out on us. Eventually, the shouting subsided and I just heard a door slam and lonely sobs coming from the other room. I crawled out of my bed and let my little legs carry me across the room to Rita’s side. '''

'''“Rita?” I asked quietly. All I could see was a little shaking ball underneath a pile of blankets. I pulled away the cover and crawled in with her. Tears streaked her face. She hugged me and gripped my hand tightly in fear. She snuggled closer to me and said,'''

“I’m so scared Aud…”

'''“Me too..” I whimpered. '''

'''We both just sat there for a while till the sobs quieted down. I was still hugging Rita under the blankets though. We both stayed there for a while and finally went to sleep. '''

'''I looked at Rita’s face. So pale and almost lifeless. She was always my support. Even though I put up such a tough shell I still had bad days. Before I met Isla and the others, Rita was all I had. She’s still so important to me. I couldn’t bear seeing her like this. The fear of death mingled throughout the room and pumped fear into my veins with every beep of her monitor. Just then Vix walked in. He nodded to me and I told him Rita’s position. Still the same. He nodded. '''

'''Suddenly, Rita started to stir. We both moved to her bedside. Vix placed a rune in her hand and explained that it was a healing rune. She very weakly smiled and placed it under her pillow. Then (this is the highlight of my day) Vix bent over and kissed her forehead. I internally screamed in delight but all I could do is giddily smile. Rita’s face flushed a light pink-which was a fantastically great sign. He stood up and smiled lightly before leaving the room. When he shut the door I squeezed her hand and smiled at her. '''

'''“Stop.” Rita gasped. Oops, I was squeezing her hand too tightly…'''

“Rita!”

'''“Don’t….Say it” She panted. '''

“You had your first kiss!” I squealed

“On the forehead!” She muttered.

“Who cares!?!?!”

'''“I do!” She said in an exhausted voice. She settled back into her pillow and closed her eyes. That was the last time I saw them open for a long time. '''

'''Later on, most of us were gathered in the clubhouse. Isla was still not back. If she wasn’t back by tonight so help me Thor, I would tear every piece of the hidden world apart looking for her. Kat wasn’t around either. We kinda all moved around the room silently. Aidan was talking to Kate who looked like she was making dinner. They were both smiling...hmm.'''

'''Vix was sullenly staring at a bookshelf in the corner on the couch. Probably re-living the most adorable moment ever in his head. Suddenly Kat walked in and slammed to daggers into a piece of parchment she had rolled onto the table. We all gathered around,'''

'''“Look what I have!” She sing-songed. We all gathered around, Aidan and Kate gasped. '''

'''“Harn!” Aidan mumbled. We all knew what this meant. This was a big deal. '''

'''“Good work Kat!” Kate praised. Kat smiled modestly and I perked up, “What is it?”'''

'''“Whatever it is, it’s really important,” Aidan mumbled while still studying the blueprints. '''

“Kat, mind if I borrow these?” He asked.

'''“Sure thing, go ahead!” She replied. Aidan took out the daggers and rolled them up again. It looked like we were pretty much wrapped up-when Isla walked in. Super relieved I happily said,'''

'''Isal! There you are…” But I stopped. There. Was. A. Nightfury. Next. To. Her. '''

“Don’t move…” Vix said slowly.

'''“Isla…” Katina whispered. “There is a Thor flippin’ Night Fury right next to you!”'''

'''“I know,” she said quietly. Something was wrong. My breath shortened.'''

'''“Isla,” Aidan said slowly. “What happened, and why is there a Night Fury here?” Just then, I noticed the prominent gashes all over her with blood pouring out. Thor, I can be so dumb sometimes.'''

'''“You’re bleeding! And Inferno! Are you okay?!” I yelled running over to her. But again that Night Fury was there and I stopped. He looked safe and sad so I moved the other way to her side. Kate advanced as well. '''

“Everything ok?” She asked in a concerned voice.

'''“Yes. No. Yes. No. I don’t know?” She asked her voice shaking. She looked like she was about to cry. '''

'''“What happened?” We all asked. She was freaking me out! Tears fell out of her eyes and I hugged her. Poor thing. '''

'''“Michael…” Isla breathed. My blood ran cold. No. '''

'''“Yea?” Katina asked. “What about him?”'''

'''“He-He got captured...Captured by Havardr...and is going to be..to be...to be...K-killed…” She mumbled before collapsing onto the floor sobbing. I knelt down with her and hugged her. Oh man. I out of all the others knew what death by Havardr meant. This was not pretty. He’s definitely going through torture. OH man! And right after their make-up! Noooooo! I took a deep breath. Isla was trying to quiet her sobs in my lap. Her body was just shaking all over. The others were still looking shocked at the stranger, nightfury and the fact that Isla was actually crying.'''

'''“Shhh,” I muttered. I didn’t know what to say. Then it hit me. “Wait. Aidan. You still have that tracker right?” I asked in hope. Isla shot up out of my lap to look at him. Her eyes were all red. '''

'''“Yea! Yea I do!” Aidan said running out of the room and making a bee-line away from the Night Fury. Five minutes and he was back, panting and holding the tracker in his hand. I had temporarily bandaged up Isla and introduced myself to Michael’s brother. Jeremy. '''

'''We looked over the screen and saw Havardrs dot we were tracking. '''

'''“Okay. We have a location. If there’s anything you need to know about Havardr Isla, is that he enjoys a slow process. We have about a week before Michael is actually...you know.” I said quietly. Another tear fell down her face. I hugged her and continued,'''

'''“So anyway, we have about a week to fly out to this location, blast Havardr’s ugly face off and rescue Michael. Aidan. How fast can you put together a plan?” Aidan confidently smiled and looked at Kate. She nodded and the two ran out of the room to put it together. I looked at Isla. '''

'''“Should I take you to the hospital to get bandaged up? I was gonna go and check on Rita anyway..” “Wait. Rita’s in the hospital?”'''

'''“Yea. A sudden cold turned into a pretty serious illness. Doctor’s can’t really figure out what is going on with her.”'''

“Oh,” Isla answered.

“So, should I take you there?” I asked again.

'''“No thanks. I’m just gonna go to my hut.” she droned. She sounded very depressed. Understandably. I watched her walk away. It scared me to see her so downcast and-well...not Isla.'''

'''I sat down on the clubhouse table. Kate and Aidan were on the other side of the room busy doing all the genius revenge planning. Vix and I just sat around staring. My thoughts drifted back to Rita. Poor thing. Just then Kat walked into a room trying to pry a terror mail terror off of her hair. '''

'''“Medical terror!” She yelled while trying to pull it off. Flame was trying to help too, to no avail. Vix and I toppled out of our chairs to get to the terror. Medical terror meant only one thing. We quickly took the terror off of Kat’s head. I pulled open the mail and scanned it quickly.'''

Miss Aud Hofferson, 

'''We regret to inform you that your sister has taken a turn for the worst. The sudden illness built up to a severe problem: Appendicitis. Her appendix ruptured and she is currently in surgery. Please come immediately. '''

'''Panic rose in my face. I was feeling very hot and queasy. Not because I was sick, but because I was worried. I dashed out of the room, (Vix followed as well) and called to spark.'''

'''“SPARK!!!!” I yelled running into his stable. He laid there and looked up at me.'''

'''“Buddy we gotta go now! I have to get to Rita!” I pleaded. He contendedly burped and rolled his face away from me as if to say, “I dont’t think so.” '''

'''“Spark….You knock it off right now.” I said gravely. He just blew a puff off smoke at me. '''

'''“ARGH!” I yelled. Nebbie was at the Hospital stables so I couldn’t-oh. Vix!'''

'''“Vix!” I called. He was waiting for me outside.'''

'''“Spark is being stubborn. Can I-”'''

'''“Get on,” he called. I nodded and hopped behind him and we took off. I barged through the front doors and ran to the surgery level. A nurse directed us to her and we took off down the hall. When we reached her section a nurse walked out of the room Rita was being operated on. '''

'''“Are you her sister?” She asked me. '''

'''“Yes. What happened?”'''

'''“She woke up with a lot of pain. We ran a couple of tests and found that her appendix burst. We are doing all we can. Let me direct you to our waiting room…” She said gently pushing us into the room. We sat in some chairs. Vix put his head in his hands and ran his fingers through his hair. We sat for at least an hour in silence before the doctor walked in.'''

“Miss Hofferson?” 

'''“Here!” I replied, Vix and I jumped up and walked over to him. '''

'''“She’s stable.” He said. I breathed a sigh of relief. “But we don’t know for how long. I’ve managed to clear away most of the infection...But I expect she’s gonna be out of it for at least another week or two...IF the surgery was successful and she begins to improve.” He finished. Great, he had to add that part.'''

“Can I see her?” 

'''“Only for a little while…” I nodded. We both walked into the room Rita was in. She had an oxygen tube attached and that same haunting monitor continued to beep. It scared me to Valhalla and back to see her like that. I walked to her bed and grabbed her hand. Vix at the foot of the hospital bed. Her colorless eyes fluttered open gently as she looked at us, confused.'''

'''“Hey there Rits! How ya’ feelin’?” I asked. Stay positive. Rita quietly moaned before saying,'''

'''“Not...That good…” I chuckled. The nurse walked in and handed me a terror mail. Aidan and Kate finished. They needed me back ASAP. Now that I knew Rita was stable, I figured I could go. '''

“Can you stay with her?” I asked Vix.

'''“Of course…” he answered. I liked that answer. I smiled and then squeezed Rita’s hand.'''

“Bye Rits.”

'''“Bye Aud.” She said before I got up and left the two. What a day.'''

-Woah...So long. Sorry if I bored ya'll to death with that.
