Lykan's Revenge : Chapter Two

Chapter Two

"I heard you're going on vacation!"

Lykan turned around and stared into her nemesis's amazing orange eyes. To be honest, Lykan was a little mesmerized by them. She gulped down and looked away, not accepting the fact that her nemesis looked pretty for once.

"It's none of your business, AnnaBeth."

The girl with shoulder-length red hair smirked. "Sure, it is. Considering Ashton's going."

Lykan stopped in her tracks and scowled. Of course. Since Ashton's going, AnnaBeth has to tag alone. Especially since they both have a secret thing for each other. Yes, they're gay. Shocking, right? Not.

She whirled around, annoyance clear in her brown eyes. "Look, AnnaBeth. Just because Ash is going, doesn't mean you have to tag along."

"Ah, you see. It does." She counter-attacked, giving her another smirk. "Because if anything happened to her," This time, her look turned dark. Though she still had her smirk on, her eyes darkened and a scary aura surrounded them. "I'd kill you."

Lykan grumbled under her breath and looked away, ignoring eye contact. "Fine."

AnnaBeth instantly brightened up. "Awesome. So I'll meet ch'all later at the courtyard."

"How did you know we were going to meet at the c-"

"Loser, Ashton tells me everything." AnnaBeth looked at Lykan and gave her a 'duh' look. The other girl sighed and shook her head.

"Of course." And just like that, she walked off, ignoring her nemesis's huge smirk. Damn you. Wipe that damn smirk off your damn face. She thought as she walked off. She couldn't help but hate the cheerleader.

I mean, she was always so bossy, so annoyingly perky, so mean and damn straight a bitch. What does Ash see in her? God.

"Hi Lykan." A mysterious yet soothingly smooth voice met with Lykan's sensitive ears. She turned around but didn't wipe the frown off her face as she stared at the one guy that she found date-able besides Daryl in the school. His name is Vael Stronghold, he's tall and dashing just like a prince should be. He has dark black hair that covered one side of his eye, and the color of his eyes would have any girl in a daze.

A gorgeous, dark, mesmerizing blue. He had on a neutral smile, and like usual he addressed Lykan formally as a gentleman usually does. When gossip came out that he liked Lykan, Daryl got extremely defensive. And though he didn't like Vael, Lykan did- as a friend though, of course.

"Hello, Vael."

He smiled. "What are you up to?"

"Just going to class."

Vael nodded and looked away, the smile dropping. "I heard you're going away for a few days."

Lykan hesitated and looked away too, ignoring eye contact. How does rumor spread so fast around here? Damnit. The school hallways were pretty deserted, besides the few upperclassmen getting ready to skip class again. So she found no harm in telling him.

"I'm... I'm going to the mountains."

Vael's eyebrows shot upward. "Mountains, you say?"

"Y-Yeah. I'm... uh... trying to get Sapphire back." Lykan mumbled, blushing at the thought of telling this male the one secret that only she, Ash and Daryl knew.

Vael's brows furrowed and he put his hands in his black jeans pockets. "Sapphire?"

"My daughter."

There was a pause. And Vael gave out a long and loud sigh. "Oh."

That's all he said before walking away. Lykan stared after him, guilt storming in her heart. She liked Vael, she really did. And she thought that they could be really good friends. Oh well... He deserved to know the truth.

After a minute, Vael disappeared into the classroom and Lykan realized that she has to get going too. She dashed to her class, ignoring the few curious glances the upperclassmen gave her, and finally sat down at her respective seat beside Ashton.

"Hey, Ika." Ashton greeted as she gave her best friend a smile. The nickname 'Ika' was given to Lykan by Ash, because the three letters 'Yka' sounded very much like 'Ika'. So just to shorten her name, Ash started calling her that ever since they were 12.

Lykan gave her a bored look and glared. "You told AnnaBeth."

She hesitated, as if she was caught with her hand in the cookie jar. She looked away guiltily, ignoring Lykan's gaze. "I'm sorry, Ika! But you know how weak I get when she... talks to me." She mumbled, blushing.

"You guys made out?"

"W-Wha?! NO!" Came Ash's quick response. At that exact moment, the teacher entered the class, ushering the class to quiet down.

Ashton looked away and wouldn't turn to Lykan for the whole lesson, but Ashton's actions with AnnaBeth was the farthest thing from Lykan's mind. Her mind wandered to Sapphire, and to Daryl, and to Vael.

Today's gonna be a long day.

When class ended, a stampede of snobbishly self-centered students came out all at once, and the hallways were once again crowded. Students pushed passed each other, threatening to sue each other's families, and then there were the jocks, who just pushed past students as if they were nothing. One of those jocks was a guy named Eddie. An annoyingly broad and muscular dude that every girl craved to be with. He was the most popular guy in school, besides Vael.

Lykan pushed through the waves of people and slammed against the locker when Eddie had so 'accidentally' pushed her.

"Woops, my bad." He snickered sarcastically, laughing along with his 'buddies'.

"HEY!" His gang turned around to watch Daryl make his way through the crowd, glaring daggers at them. He reached Lykan in seconds and helped her up, giving her a worried glance before turning back to the bunch of asses.

"You shitholes better apologize! And do it nicely! Not that sarcastic crap!" His voice was loud and demanding, but Eddie was still snickering when he finished.

Eddie turned to his friend by his left and gave him a fake-innocent look. "Oh my god, Tim. Should I apologize or not? I mean, bumping into her wasn't MY fault in the first place!" He said in an annoyingly fake voice.

His friends laughed again and it only fueled Daryl's anger. He pushed Eddie by the shoulders and got all up in his face. "Shut up, you fuck! You have no right to speak like that."

Eddie growled and pushed Daryl back, finally getting serious. His push was much more stronger, hence causing Daryl to crash into the lockers with Lykan. "I have the right to speak anyway I like, turd!"

His friends stared, interested, at the scene before them and decided to back out, knowing Eddie could take Daryl down in a heartbeat. But the guy didn't back down, Daryl got back up and walked up to Eddie, showing no signs of fear.

"You know what, you always think you're top dog in this academy. Well, you're wrong!"

By now, a huge crowd of students had stopped to watch the fight already. Even the popular chicks. But they were all woo-ing for Eddie anywho, so it doesn't really matter. Speaking of Eddie, he had a smirk on his face and a very itching fist by his side.

"You know what, shit hole. I've been dealing with your complaints all through this year. And I gotta admit," He laughed out loud, in spite. "It was fucking annoying!"

Daryl growled and finally something inside of him snapped, he tackled Eddie down and punched his face two- no, four- no, six times! And Eddie couldn't even get up, because Daryl had a strong hold on him. But before he could launch the seven hit, Vael emerged from the crowds, looking as handsome as ever.

"Alright, stop this nonsense." He commanded, glaring at the two immature students. He pulled Daryl up by the arm and helped Eddie get up with his other hand. "You two should control yourselves! You are not monsters created for battle. But fine young gentlemen that should know better than to fight in school grounds, or anywhere as a matter of fact!"

His voice was amazing. Strong, commanding yet smooth all at the same time. It made most of the girls squeal and shriek. But most of them just stared at him in awe. Lykan was one of them. She stared at Vael in amazement and just leaned against the locker for support at what her boyfriend had just did.

Daryl glared at Eddie while the jock wiped the blood away from his nose and mouth, giving Daryl the same glare but with less hatred and with more fear. Vael sighed and shook his head. "Today's not my good day. So if you two start another fight," He pushed them both away to opposite directions. "You're both getting expelled."

Oh yeah, Vael is the president of the student council, meaning he could run the school with a flick of his hand. How silly of me to forget mentioning that.

Daryl turned to Vael and scowled, while Eddie nodded solemnly and walked away, glaring at anybody who stared at him weirdly. Daryl sighed and turned back to Lykan, a sad look in his eyes.

Vael turned to look at Lykan too, but his face showed no emotion- as usual. But this time, Lykan saw a little pain behind that strong exterior.

"Well then, show's over. Everybody back to their respective dorms or houses." Vael demanded. And as soon as they had piled up to watch the fight, they piled out to forget the fight. It was pretty immature, but then again Daryl - who need I mention was probably one of the students that the high class thought was invisible - beat Eddie up with just a few punches. That was something no one can forget.

Vael turned to Daryl and Lykan, and with one small smile excused himself.

Daryl turned to Lykan and sighed. "I'm sorry, Lykan. I just-"

"Shh." Lykan placed a finger on his lip and smiled. "It's okay." She wrapped her arms around his waist and he returned the pleasant hug, breathing in her scent. But all the while, for some reason, she was picturing Vael.
