My Hockey Alpha Chapter 147

Through the Veil

Nina

With one last, deep breath, I stepped through the portal with Edward. For a fleeting moment, I felt as though my body was weightless, almost as though I didn’t even exist. I didn’t know where my flesh ended and the vacuum around me began; I felt like everything and nothing at the same time.

Then, it was over in a flash.

We came out on the other side of the portal, and everything was quiet. As I looked around, felt a wave of confusion wash over me; the forest around me was exactly the same as before, but almost like a mirror image. Lisa, Ronan, and the dean were gone. It was only me and Edward.

“Strange, isn’t it?” Edward asked with a chuckle, breaking my train of thought and snapping me back to this strange new reality. “Exactly the same, but entirely different all at once. Don’t worry; you’ll get used to it.”

“Just take me wherever you were planning on taking me,” I growled. I wrenched my hand free from Edward’s and curled my hands up into fists at my sides as I stared ahead solemnly. If I was going to die today, I just wanted to get it over with.

“So be it,” Edward replied. “Follow me.”

We walked through the woods in silence for a little while. It really was strange, walking in a place that I knew well, but at the same time, didn’t know at all. Either way, I kept my head down and followed Edward. There was nothing else to do at this point. If this would save my friends and my campus, then I would let whatever was about to happen… happen.

Finally, after a while of walking, we came out to a road. On that road sat a black car. I felt the knot in my stomach grow larger, but as Edward walked up to it and opened the back door, I swallowed my fear and climbed inside. He shut the door behind me.
