Chapter 12: Used To It

Lucky's POV:

"Angel you gotta stay focused!!!" Alma said, as Aaliyah threw an energy ball at Angel. Angel got hit with it and it sent her flying into a tree. Good thing she wasn't a human anymore otherwise that would've killed her. She got back up and ran over to us. "I'm trying!!!" Angel yelled. She ran into Trey, who dodged her attack. Turns out the Magic Council turned Angel into a magical being, but not just any magical being. She was a UniHybrid, the most powerful being in the universe. It was so cool my mate was a UniHybrid though a part of me wanted her to stay human so I could protect her at all costs. "Angel, watch your back!!!" Bryan yelled. Angel turned around to have Meghan throw an energy ball at her.

She dodged it though. I transformed and flew behind her. She heard me and kicked me but I grabbed her foot and flew us high into the air. She transformed into a wolf and bite me in my dick. I cried out in pain and transformed. We both fell. Luckily, the trees caught us. "Ow fuck Angel!!!" I cried. "You grabbed me from behind!!" She yelled. We both climbed down from the trees. "That's what he was supposed to do Angel. You gotta be on your guard." Alma said, coming over to us. "I'm trying." She said. She then sighed. "This is too much." She said. "Well Angel, it's the only way you can learn." Bryan said. He walked off. "Again." He said. Angel then attacked Keisha and flipped her but Keisha was fast. Keisha then transformed and ran off. Angel did the same and ran after her. They both transformed into Devil Dogs, causing then to leave a trail of burnt grass and leaves behind.

They came back and me and Marcus tackled Angel. She was strong but wasn't strong enough to get us off of her. She transformed and began to sob. Marcus, still in his wolf form, looked at me. I shook my head. I transformed and bent down. "Angel, I know this is hard but you gotta do it." I said. "I don't want to." She whined. "Angel come now. I know it's hard being a magical being but you get used to it." I said. "This isn't something I'll just 'get used to'." She said, as she stood up. "Angel." Bryan called. She growled. We trained for few more hours before Angel finally got the hang of it. "Aw come on Marcus. Don't tell me you've gone soft nigga?" Angel taunted him. Marcus snarled at her and attacked her.

They were in wolf form, going at it like crazy. We all watched as Marcus basically tried to kill Angel. His jaws snapping inches from her throat. Something in me erupted. I couldn't control myself. I transformed and flew towards them. I tackled Marcus and fought him. He snarled and growled at me. We both transformed. "WHAT THE FUCK LUCKY!?" Marcus shouted. "Dude you were gonna kill her!!!" I cried. Keisha got between us. "Guys chill." She said. Me and Marcus glared at each other. "Lucky chill dude. I-I'm fine." Angle said, softly. She held my arm. I looked back at her. She looked fine but frightened by me. "Look, how bout we call it a day?" Meghan said. "I think that's best." Bryan said. I sighed and shook my head. I transformed and flew away.

Damn Lucky. I-I don't know what happened. I couldn't stop myself. It's like something came over me. I don't know what that was. It's your instincts. She's your mate. Your instincts were to protect her. My 'instincts' caused my to fight my own best friend. I flew around til I was home. I walked up to the door and walked in. Mom and Dad looked at me. "Hey Lucky. I thought you were out training Angel?" Dad asked. "I was." I said, as I headed upstairs. "Well what happened?" Mom asked. "Things." I said, as I ran upstairs to my room. I ran in and slammed my door. I went to my bathroom and turned on the shower. I let the water run over my body. I can't believe I attacked Marcus. He's never gonna forgive me. He'll live.

I don't know how long I was in the shower but I got out when the water turned cold. I sighed and came back in my room to see Angel sitting on my bed. She looked back at me before covering her eyes. "Oh!! Sorry!!!" She said, as she stumbled to leave. She bumped into my dresser, my nightstand, my stand for my TV. She was stumbling mess. "Angel just....stay there." I said. She stood still in front of the mirror. "What are you doing here anyway?" I asked, curiously. I walked over to my closet. "I came here to talk to you." She said, still covering her eyes. "About what?" I asked. She sighed. "Why'd you attacked Marcus?" She asked. I scoffed. "What you mean 'why'? He was gonna kill you." I said, as I put on a shirt. She grunted. "Lucky I had him." She said.

I moved her hands from her face. "No you didn't." I said. "Yes I did!!! I had him. He wasn't even hurting me." She said. I sat down on the bed. "It looked like he was." I said. "Well he wasn't. I'm completely fine." She said. She took a seat in front of me. Seeing her on her knees in front of me excited me. I took a breath and moved from her. "Look Angel, I can't really explain why I attacked him. I just did. It looked like you was having trouble with him so I saved him." I said. She stared at me. "Lucky. I. Had. Him. I was doing good until you tackled him." She said. I groaned irritably. "Look I tried to do something nice and it backfired. I thought you were struggling so I helped you. Next time it happens, I'll just sit on the sidelines and watch." I said, harshly.

As soon as the words left my mouth, I felt bad. But the damage had already been done. She looked like she was bout to cry. She nodded and walked towards the door. "Same here." She said, softly. I sighed. "Angel wait!!" I said. She closed the door. I sighed loudly and plopped down on the bed. I'm a fuckup. Well duh. I turned on the TV to SpongeBob to help cheer me up but it was no use. I was still upset. It started raining so it fueled my sadness. Mom came in shortly after. "Okay mister, what did you say to Angel?" She asked. "Why?" I asked, not looking at her. "Lucky you upset a UniHybrid. The weather is based on her emotions. It's raining right now. Angel is upset. Now what happened between y'all?" She asked.

I sighed. "Me and Angel had a disagreement and now she hates me, along with Marcus." I said. She tilted her head. "Marcus? What you do to him?" She asked. I sighed. "We were training Angel. Marcus charged her. I thought he was gonna kill her from the way he was attacking her. So I tackled Marcus and fought him. I don't know what came over me though." I said. She scoffed. "Of course." She said. "What's that suppose to mean?" I asked. "It's your instincts Lucky. You were only trying to protect your mate. You know Marcus would never hurt someone you cared about, especially Angel." She said. "Well they both hate me right now." I said. "Talk to them. Both of them. It was a mistake." She said, as she left.

I sighed and reached for my phone. I looked at Angel's Snapchat. Her stories were all smiles until I got to the last one. It's always they ones you trust to the most to also hurt you the most. I scoffed. No way. I texted her. She didn't text back so I called her about a dozen times before she answered. "What you want nigga damn?!" Yelled a voice. I rolled my eyes. Good God Keisha shut the hell up. "Shit up and put your sister on the phone." I said. "She don't wanna talk to you." She said. "Keisha either you put Angel on the phone or I will to come to your house and burned the bitch down." I threatened. I heard shuffling and voices in the background. "What do you want Lucky?" Angel asked. "Can we talk please?" I asked. She sighed heavily. "No." She said.

I rolled my eyes and put on some shoes. "Please Angel." I said. "No. You snapped at me for no reason." She said. I climbed out the window and jumped. "Fine them. Night." I said, then I hung up. I transformed and flew towards her house. I saw Keisha in the mirror with Aaliyah twerking. I landed on a branch and blew a fire breath at the window. They jumped and looked at me. I transformed and jumped when Aaliyah opened the window. "Yo." She said. I ignored her. I walked towards Angel's room and knocked. "Come in." Angel said, in a soft voice. I opened the door and looked at her. She looked at me and screamed. "Yeah so we're gonna talk whether you like it or not." I said.

"Lucky get out!!!" She yelled. "Make me." I said. She got up and walked to the door. "Trey!!!!" She screamed. Shit. I grabbed Angel and jumped out her window. She screamed and tried to fight me. I transformed and we flew off into the night. Angel screamed at me. "LUCKY LET ME GO!!!" She cried. I flew to the forest and dropped her into a tree. She hit it with a thud. I landed and transformed. "Yes talk." I said. She glared at me. I smirked. "Look Angel, I'm sorry I snapped at you. I was just....looking out for you." I said. "You can do that when I'm actually in trouble." She said, as she got down. I jumped down and landed on my feet. She climbed down and was gonna land on her face until I caught her. I smiled but she glared at me.

"Please baby I'm sorry." I said. She sighed. "Lucky I told you I..." She pause and looked at me. "What did you just call me?" She asked. "Angel." I said, quickly. I realized what I had just said. She gave me a look. "I called you Angel. It's your name....plus it's what you are. Your not a meanie like your sister." I said. She smiled a half smile. I smiled. "There's a good smile." I said. She blushed and rolled her eyes. "Boy shut up!!" She said, as she playfully pushed me away. I grabbed her arm and pulled her into my arms. She hugged me. "I really am sorry Angel." I said. She sniffed. "It's okay. But you should apologize to Marcus. He was hurt by you. He was actually surprised you attacked him." She said.

"I'm gonna apologize to my best friend. He means everything to me." I said. She chuckled. "More than me?" She asked, jokingly. I laughed. We both transformed and flew back to her house. It was then I noticed Marcus's car was there. We landed and transformed in her room. "Why is Marcus's car here?" I asked. She made a face. "Keisha wanted to cheer him up after you snapped on him." She said. "What she do?" I asked, curiously. She blushed. "Gave him head." She said. I chuckled. "Yeah that's when I left for your house." She said. I laughed and walked out her room, only to be met by Trey. "So you snatching me sister out the house?" He as threateningly. "Boy shut yo ass up!!! You always in somebody business!!" Angel said, irritably.

She pushed her away from me. I walked around til I found Marcus talking to Alma. "Well no need to wait. There he is now." She said, as she stood up to leave. Marcus turned and looked at me. "Hey Lucky." He said. "Hey man." I said. I sat down next to him. "Look I'm sorry for fighting you." I said. "Yeah me too. I shouldn't have attacked Angel like that. I finally understand how you feel about it." He said. I frowned. "How?" I asked. "Because after you left, Trey shoved Keisha into a bush and I got angry." He said. I laughed. "We both acted on our instincts." I said. We laughed. "So we cool?" I asked, curiously. He smiled and hugged me. "We cool bro." He said. I looked around. "This house is dope." I said. He nodded.

"It is. Stan found it." He said. I looked at him. "But Alma decorated it." He said. I nodded. "That makes more sense. She always has knack for decor." I said. He nodded. "Don't say that around Bryan or Stan though." He said. We talked a bit more before Marcus's Mom called for him to get home. My Mom called me for me to come home too. I smiled. I made up with two of my closest friends. I left Angel's house and flew home. I climbed in bed and went to sleep. I woke up to my TV on. The hell? My TV has a sleep timer. After four hours, it's supposed to go off. I looked at my phone. Because it was so bright, I had to squint my eyes. It was 4:00 in the morning. It's been way past four hours so my TV should be off. I looked up to see someone sitting at the foot of my bed. I jumped up and gasped. The figure didn't move.

"Yo?" I said. It still didn't move. Then vanilla hit me hard. Angel? "Angel." I called. She didn't turn around. I grabbed her arm but she still didn't look at me. I went around to face her. She was staring straight ahead, not looking at me. I stared at her. What's wrong with her? It's like she's in a trance. "Angel?" I called. She didn't answer. Time passed and she still didn't answer. I went to the bathroom and splashed some water on her. She didn't even blink when the water got in her eye. Then her tail appeared ten seconds later. Ewww. Cool. Creep looking but cool. I touched her tail. She didn't do anything. She dried herself off and walked out the room. I followed her. "Yo Angel, what the hell are you doing?" I asked. She didn't answer. She went downstairs and began to throw pots and pans around.

"Angel what are you doing?!" I yelled. She didn't answer. Then Mom and Dad came running in. "What's up?!" Dad said, with a baseball bat in his hand. Mom had a taser. "Lucky? Angel? What is she doing here?" Mom asked. "I don't know. I found her in my room. I called out to her but she won't answer." I said. We tried to talk to Angel and hold her but she only attacked us. "That's it. I'm calling Keisha." I said, as I ran upstairs to get my phone. Keisha and Trey and the Magic Council cake over. "What's wrong with her?" Dad asked. Trey sighed. "She's sleep walking." He said. "What? She sleep walks?" I asked. "She only does it when she's stressing about something." Keisha said. "Well let's wake up her." Mom said. "Noooo!!!" We all screamed. "Don't you know to wake up a sleep walking person?! It's dangerous." Trey said.

"Especially a UniHybrid. Ain't no telling what Angel would do." Alma said. "So what do we do? I can't have her destroying my house." Mom said. "Best to just let her get it out her system." Keisha said. We watched as Angel tore up our house. She threw a lot of things to the ground. We put back everything she threw, except vases which she broke. Trey, Keisha, and Stan went back to sleep on our couch. Dad eventually did too. It was just me and Bryan. He watched as Angel made her way outside to the garden. "If she tears up those flowers, your Mom will be pissed." He said. "Good." Dad said, walking in the room. "Off to work Dad?" I asked. He nodded. "Your not worried about your garden?" Bryan asked. Dad shook his head. "Nope. I wanted to put a fountain there but Alicia said no. She wanted a garden." He said, mocking Mom. He looked at Angel.

"I hope Angel burns them." He said. "Fuck you asshole!!!" Mom yelled. I laughed. Me and Bryan went outside with Angel to make sure she didn't do anymore damage. She finally crashed when she picked up a cactus. I picked her up and put in my room. I went back to sleep but it wants long before my alarm clock went off. I groaned and shut it off. Angel woke up and looked around. She screamed. I frowned at her. "Girl!!!" I said. She looked at me and gasped. "Lucky...what did you do?" She asked, calmly. "What do you mean?" I asked. "What did you do to me?! Why am I in your room?" She cried. I frowned at her. "You sleep walk all the way over here. Go downstairs and you'll see you destroyed my Mom's vases." I said. We walked out the door and downstairs. She gasped. "I did this?" She asked. "Yes." Mom said, as she poured some coffee.

"I am so sorry." Angel said. I could hear the sadness in her voice. I would feel bad for her but I was so tired. "I'll play for all of this." She said. "Don't bother. I've been meaning to buy ones anyways." Mom said. She headed for the stairs. "Alright Lucky. Go to school." She said. I groaned. "Mom I was up all night to make sure Angel didn't destroy anything else. Can I sleep for thirty more minutes?" I asked. She glared at me. "I'll leave in ten." I said. She went upstairs and I did too. Angel followed me. "Lucky, I-I'm so sorry. I-" I cut her off. "Angel it's fine. Just go home and get ready for school." I said. Angel left quietly. I didn't mean to sound rude or mean but I was tired. Why is sleep walking even a thing?!
