The Mental Link 4

Yppah hit Luke hard, sending his uncle flying. The older Visoun was not expecting a fight. He thought his disguise had everyone fooled. Apparently not.
Electricity crackled from Yppah's left arm, swirling down to his palm as he grabbed Luke by the neck and squeezed. The latter tensed up and shook as the shock went through him. He gripped his nephew's wrist and wrenched it. Yppah let out a groan, letting go. Luke crumpled to the ground, gasping and coughing.
"I'll get you next time," he hissed breathlessly. "I'll get you all."
Yppah smiled defiantly. "You can try."
Luke cussed at him and teleported away.
Yppah let out a sigh. His heart was thumping. He could play the tough guy, true, but his father and siblings were the brave ones. Sure, he'd had the courage to start the Fables with the daughter of the enemy, but that was because they were related. She was the closest he ever had to a little sister, and he felt obligated to protect her. But now that Jakeob had confessed his love for her, he was lost. He had Indium, she meant a lot to him, but she already had Ivy to protect. And she was too childish to be protected by him.
Oh, stop whining. He told himself. Dad had it worse. Come on.
He walked over to the tube, and saw Jakeob sitting on the floor, Kia curled in his arms. A flash of white rage went through him. Jakeob was the one who put her in pain. Jakeob was the one who blasted the power when he told him not to. And yet Jakeob is the one soothing her.
"Step away from her," Yppah growled.
"She's unconscious."
"I don't care." Yppah put his hand on Jakeob's shoulder, letting a few sparks fly. "I said get away from her."
Jakeob looked up angrily, which first shocked Yppah- he had never, ever seen Jakeob mad. Jakeob was the type of guy who'd just get scared. He never snapped. Or at least not around Yppah.
"No," Jakeob said. "She is in need of someone with the brains to understand how to heal her. Let me finish the job."
By this point, Jakeob had had enough. Good gods, why was Yppah overprotective of Kia? She was his cousin, not his sister! He could feel his magic charging up, and not in its usual time-travel way, no- he was about to shoot Yppah.

So about Death's Duty Calls...

I'd suggest reading this before Death's Duty Calls. Hi! Hello. If you don't know this yet I am a real human being, I'm a proud Canadian and I love writing. This play you're about to read, this play right here is mine, and it's based off my interactions with a certain friend. I won't call him out, but he'll know who he is. So yeah. Feel free to use this play. It runs about an hour and a half in length. The word use is fairly basic , but some of the themes addressed in the play are PG13 ( drinking, intimacy, homosexuality and abuse to name a few ). I, the author, suggest a high-school level audience and actors . A lot of the characters have loose looks ( looks that aren't addressed in the play ), and some are set. Here's a list of characters. Whatever is in bold  is said in-play, whatever is not is how I see them and is open to change and interpretation. Anything not mentioned is yours to decide. Jeannine "Jay" Moses - Female, h...

Interrogation (Part 1)

I stare at the dimly lit interrogation room I've been stuck in. The cold metal around my wrists chains me to the table. I struggle against these bonds. My captor, Luke, walks into the room. His tousled brown hair falls over his purple eyes. I tighten my lips. I’m not giving any information. I have to protect myself. I have to protect Mom and Dad. I have to protect Dangiras, Kaelie and Mackenzie. I have to protect Zachary. I have to protect Ella. "Talk." Luke bangs his fist on the table, making my chains rattle. I turn my head up and away, like a baby refusing food. I slit my eyes. "Jackelle Alexandria Mixel." Luke growls. "Talk." Damn. No one uses my full name anymore. Hell, I don’t think anyone knows my full first name other than my parents! "I’ll talk," I grin. "But you won’t be getting the information you seek. And please," My smile fades. "call me Jackie, like all the other normal people in my life." Luke raise...
