Mark's P.O.V

°~°~°~°~°~°~°~°~°

I glared at Dark with what he has done to my little section of the room. It went from looking like all the rest to looking as if a fucking tornado went through it. I sighed as Jack walked in.

"Hey, Mark! What's- OH MY FUCKING GOD!" Jack said, laughing uncontrollably at Mark's misfortune. Mark lightly punched him in the arm, and said, "Shut the fuck up."

Jack just shrugged me off and walked off to his section. He seemed to be becoming distant since Dark and Anti came, and it was quite concerning on my part. I decided to just let him be for now and tried to fix up my 'room,' even though Dark would just mess it up again.

After a while, Dark gave up trying to mess around with my space and disappeared off into the night, leaving me alone. I couldn't keep my mind away from Jack, he's just been acting so weird. I tried to take my mind off it, but I just couldn't. I decided to get up and get out of our little cabin.

When I was out, I ended up walking out to the perimeter of the camp. We still owned plenty of acres, but we didn't really have anything out there. I saw Tom chilling out by the fire, and I was quite surprised since he didn't have much time to do stuff like that, and I didn't notice that there was a fire pit at the perimeter of the camp. Weird. I decided to walk over to him and sat down next to him.

"You okay, Tom?" I asked, since he seemed to look a bit down. He just sighed and responded, "Well, you know Jordan the guard, right? And James, the wizard?"

"Yeah, what about 'em?"

"Well, Jordan is supposedly dead now and it's supposedly James's fault," Tom said, his words filled with venom. I didn't respond since I really couldn't. I knew Tom since we were quite young, and he has liked Jordan since... well, forever. Jordan wouldn't come with us, though. The only thing he would do was promise not to tell anyone about us.

"Mark? You okay?" Tom asked, snapping me out of my thoughts.

"Yeah, yeah. I'm okay, just a little shocked... I think I'm going to go take a walk in the woods," I said, and Tom just nodded in response. I haven't seen him this sad in... Well, I never have.

I walked through the thick trees, remembering that time I went patrolling with Jack. I laughed a bit remembering the bird getting hit by his apple, yet he can't shoot an arrow at a target for his LIFE. I wandered around for a bit, getting lost is close and distant memories.

???'s P.O.V

°~°~°~°~°~°~°

I sighed as I looked up at the starry night. I climbed up a tall tree to admire the beautiful sky. I closed my eyes, letting the wind run through my hair. It was pretty chilly out, but not enough to bother me. 

"Hey, don't fall asleep up there."

I opened one eye to see Netty climbing up the tree I was sitting in. She smiled at me, her blue eyes sparkling in the moon's light.

"You should be at camp," I said to her and she just responded with a shrug and said, "So should you."

It was silent for a while, as I thought of the mystery boy everyone called the prince. Well, the 'septic prince.' Rumors everywhere in the town talk of him having secret powers and owning a weird pet septic eye that was somehow alive.

Now that it was rumored that he was kidnapped, I was on my edge. As royal blood, he must be strong and well-skilled, especially since he was supposedly next up for the throne. 

"Hey, Netty? Sage? Whatchya doin' up there?" A voice asked, snapping me out of my thoughts. I jump down and was greeted face-to-face with Mark, the bronze of the yagalleh. Netty followed my actions, landing next to me. We both stay silent and did a double glare.

"Whoa, why the harsh looks? Did I interrupt your makeout session or something?" Mark asked, putting his hands up defensively. I blushed a bit but decided to ignore him and walk back to camp.

Talk about ruining the mood.

Netty caught up with me, snickering a bit. As we made our way back to camp, you could hear Mark shouting, "WHAT DID I DO EXCEPT SPEAK THE TRUTH?!?"

Damn, I hate him.
