Chapter Six: A week Later

What is goign on with Hawk?

        Alexandra curls up around her prince, wiggling her body against him, trying to satisfiy him. But Hawk doesnt care. He pushes her off him and gets off the bed, no longer in the mood. Alexandra huffs in defeat and sits at the edge of the bed.

 

       "Hawk what is wrong?" She says, worried for him. She loved him, with everything she had, she didnt care that he was a prince or royalty, that didnt change who he was on the inside. He may be closed off to most, but with her he was an open book. Romantic, Sweet, Funny, protective, The perfect gentleman. She knew he was afraid to love her back, but she didnt care, she would always be here, and maybe, just maybe one day he would throw away his fear and love her back as much as she loved him. Hawk just paces the room, his hands running through his hair. Alexandra could tell he was anxious, and tense. He sighs and goes to the large picture window that overlooks the kingdom. His hands resting on the windowsill "Hawk please tell me" She whispers slipping off the bed and going to him, slipping her hands around his waist and resting her head on his back. She could feel him stiffen at her touch. "whats wrong?" She asks again. He relaxes and puts his hands on hers, holding her closer.

 

       "I don't feel right," He says sounding lost. He turns around to face her. He looks down at her and stares into her big brown eyes, so full of life, and self assurnece. It angered him. She gives him a sexy smile and wiggles again, Trying to tempt him out of his bad mood in a way that normally worked. Unexplained anger rose up inside him and he peels her hands off his waist. "Don't you EVER think of ANYTHING other then sex." He hisses. With a small gasp she takes a step away from him, her large eyes getting larger. Her fear triggers more anger in him and he takes a step toward her. "You Stupid Girl! Don't you know Fear does NOTHING!" He shouts at her. Tears pool from her eyes and splash onto her cheaks.

 

         "Hawk why are you doing this?" She whispers her fear growing. The anger continued to rise within him. Without warning He shoots out his hands and smacks her hard in the face, making her fall to the ground with a startled cry. She lays there, not holding back her tears. The sounds of her crying suddenly makes the anger disapate as fast as it came. He stares at her in horror. Dropping to his knees he gathers her to him.

 

         'Alexandra I'm so sorry, I dont know what came over me. I'm so sorry. Please forgive me." he says almost in tears himself. She just struggles out of his arms and runs out the door, the sound of it slamming rings in throughout his room. He just sits there and puts his head in his hands.

 

       What was wrong with him? He had NEVER hit a women before! He was tought better then that. This anger, it started after Nevaeh brought him back from the dead. He shudders. It's been a week since that day and Nothing has been right since. Hawk gets up and flops down on his bed, the memory of that day filling his head.

     Hawk wakes up in his bed, How did he get here? He was suppose to be at the battle feild! He needed to protect Fenix! He shoots up in bed and lets out a pained cry. His whole body felt like he fell off a clif and smashed into the rock below. He slumps back down. His chest in extreme pain. He looks down to see a nasty scar. That wasnt there earlier. What happened? The sound of his door quietly openeing has him looking over to his right. a Silverly blonde head pokes out from behind the door, Concern and worry filling her blue and green eyes. NEVAEH! He smiles at his little sister and her worry vanish as a releived smile streches her face.

 

    "Brother! You're ok! thank the goddess!" She says and rushes to her brother. like a little kid she jumps onto the bed and flings herself at him. He cathces her and hugs his sister hard, until the pain in his chest makes him grunt."  She quickly lets go. "I'm sorry, I didnt mean to hurt you." She whispers. He smiles at her.

 

   "Its ok sis. What happened? Is Fenix ok? That man was about to kill her!" He says struggling to sit up. Suddenly another person comes strolling in. "FENIX you're ok!" he says and hold his arms out for his other sister. She just sits on the bed and stares at him, like he was about to vanish. "Whats wrong?"

 

      "You dont remember?" She asks, twisting her wedding band around her finger, something she only did when he was nervous. Hawk spies this action and alarm bells start ringing in his head.

 

       "Remember what?" He asks looking at his sun sister. She just looks at Nevaeh who was fidgeting next to him. He looks at his moon sister and asks again. "REMEMBER WHAT?" he shouts suddenly angry. The girls jump slightly at his sudden outburst.

 

         "Hawk you.... Died" Nevaeh says barely above a whisper. And with that his memory of the battle floods him. He remembers Diving down to save Fenix in his Bird form. He remembered the brutal pain of the sword slidding through him. He remembered Fenix putting his head in her lap crying and trying to reasure him he would be ok. Then things went black. He remembered Thanatos the god of Death holding out his hand nad then suddenly being ripped away from him brought back into the harsh reality of the world. The realization of what happend made him Gasp out loud and look to Nevaeh. Her tears splashing down her face

 

"Nevaeh please tell me you didnt bring me back from the dead!" A little sob escapes her as she nods, unable to deny the truth. Hawk closes his eyes and sighs, anger exploding inside him. "NEVAEH HOW COULD YOU!" he screams unable to hold his temper. Nevaeh gasps and slids off the bed, his anger frightening her. Fenix puts her hand on his shoulder and squeezes, her way of tell him to stop.

 

   "STOP it Hawk! it wasnt her fault I made her!" She says. Hawk turns his glare to Fenix, who meets his glare with one of her own.

 

   "Its forbidden to mess with death! She knows Better" He says in a deadly voice. Nevaeh runs out of the room crying. Fenix just crosses her arms and gives him a serious look, one he knew well. Fenix and Nevaeh may not be close but they were Feircly protective of one another. "Well she did it now Deal with it!" She says and turns on her heels. She leaves his room, slamming the door behind her.

            Hawk shoots up in bed, the sound of Fenix slamming the door still ringing in his ear, reminding him of Alexandra. He looks at his door and sighs. He didnt know what was happening to him. But he had a hunce that it would only get worse from here if he didnt stop it soon. Exhaustion hits him hard and he sags back onto his bed. His problem could wait until tomorrow he suppose. right now he needed sleep. He needed to gather his strength if he hoped to fight whatever was happeneing to him.
