Red Rover Chapter 53 - Bella
Nathan is freaking the fuck out. I mean, I don’t blame him. He and Nyx just decided to make a go of it and now she’s been taken. He keeps trying to find a way to get into the portal that we’ve found remnants of, but there’s something blocking him. One of Nathan’s abilities as a witch is that he’s able to mimic others’ powers. It doesn’t last long, but it can be really helpful in situations like this, where he can turn the power back on whatever the previous person used. He should be able to take the remnants of Loviatar’s power and use it to reopen the portal that she used. To follow it to wherever Loviatar went with Nyx. Only, it’s not working. There’s something on the other side of the portal that is blocking him. Something much more powerful than Loviatar. I can’t figure out who is stopping him, nor can I figure out how to get around it. Nathan has sweat pouring down his face, soaking into the shirt that he’s wearing. I can see the strain of what he’s doing on his fa

Jacob “I’m glad that you’re here, Jacob. I have the feeling that we’re going to need a lot of help with stitching, setting bones, and the like. Hopefully we won’t have too much need for a surgical suite today,” Bhakti says to me as we unpack the medical supplies from the plane. “Well, I’m just glad that Ma and Pop insisted that I either learn to fight or heal. I’m just glad that I can be of assistance,” I say. Really, I’m just happy that I’ll be here when JoJo gets out of Valhalla. Obviously, I’ve been a part of training since I was old enough to hold a fighting stance. But I’m not a warrior. I have no love for the fight, no understanding of tactics. I get agitated and nervous, unsure exactly what to do. But put me in an emergency medical procedure? I’m calm, cool, and collected. I know exactly what needs to happen. So this is how I can help. It’s how I will help. Suddenly, a bright light flares across my vision. It blots out everything that’s happening around m
Red Rover Chapter 55 - Jacob
I was brought here to help. To do sutures. To help in surgery. To keep patients comfortable as they heal. It’s normally something that I’m so damn good at. But knowing that JoJo is in surgery, fighting for her life. It’s killing me. I can’t focus on anything. After that initial pain, I haven’t felt anymore. Probably because I’m not fully bonded to her. If I were, I’d be able to keep her alive. My life force would support hers. As it is, she just has to support herself. I know that Bhakti and Lily are doing what they can, but they have two other patients in critical condition right now, both in surgery with some of the other doctors. One of them is Tomas. I don’t know how I’m going to survive this if JoJo doesn’t make it through. And what if Alexander doesn’t know? Though it would be weird for me to feel JoJo’s pain and him not to. Then again, I can’t feel the link between me and Alexander when he is in the Goddess’ Realm, so maybe not. It kills me that JoJ
Red Rover Chapter 56 - Rowen
Convincing my twin that we had to go on after him feeling JoJo’s pain was probably the hardest thing that I’ve ever done. He wanted to walk out of Tartarus and into the Underworld, making his way back to the surface somehow so that he could get to her. Obviously, that wasn’t a possibility, but that didn’t stop Alexander from trying. “Alexander!” Hakeem says into his ear while Jared and I hold Allie back. Meredith grabs Alexander’s face. “Look at us. We’re here. We'll help.” The fight seems to leave Alexander’s body. “What if…what if she doesn’t make it?” I can see tears glistening in Meredith’s eyes as Jared and I now have to hold Alexander up as he sags into us. “The Goddess wouldn’t have brought JoJo into the world as her representative just to let her die this way,” Meredith says. “But Selene isn’t here to keep her safe!” Alexander cries out. I grab him in my arms, hugging him as his grief tries to take him over. “I know, Allie. I know that you’re scared. I know tha
Red Rover Chapter 57 - Devin
Alexander slept the entire time that we waited for Jaiden and Jareth to return, minus the ten minutes it took him to eat. At first, we were pumping so much energy into him that it was actually starting to drain me a little bit. But within the first hour of his rest, Alexander was requiring less and less energy. His breathing evened out and became less labored. His skin regained color and didn’t seem as taut against his bones. And his requirement on our healing lessens and lessens. When Jaiden and Jareth arrive from the gloom, Arya has removed her hand from Alexander’s and I’m barely pumping anything into him. I’m doing it more for my peace of mind than anything else. Evanora, Citra, and Hawk run to Jared and Jareth when they see them. Arya and Xander do the same as I stay with Alexander, but their voices carry through the gloom. “Any issues?” Hawk asks, clasping hands with Jaiden. The two are best friends, became so during the war with Julian and then the Riding Hoo
Red Rover Chapter 58 - Josefina
I wake up with the scents of astringent, sweat, and blood in my nose. I have to squint against the sunlight that seems to be coming through a tent flap, raising one of my hands to shade my eyes until they get used to the light. But when I move my hand, I feel the pull of an IV in my arm. It’s then that I register two things: a faint beeping in the background, presumably to the monitor that’s hooked to the electrodes that I’m now feeling all over my body, and the exquisite scent of peppermint and vanilla. I know immediately who it is. Jacob. But something about his scent is…different. More aggressive. Pulling me towards him even more than before. I can’t help but smile when I see him, even though I haven’t smiled at him in his human form since we found out that we were mated. I look over and see him in a chair against the fabric of the tent. He’s slumped down in the seat, arms crossed, and his chin to his chest. It’s easy to tell that he’s asleep, but the second that I st

I’m on the phone with Jai, having turned it on speaker phone so that Kaia can hear the call as well. “He’s made it out of surgery fine. The blade didn’t go all the way through, though it did knick some of his large intestine. They had to sew that up and he’s on some heavy duty antibiotics because of all of the bacteria and shit in the intestines. Maan (Bhakti) said the thing that likely saved him was him getting his Goddess gift in the middle of the fight,” Jai tells us. “His super strength helped? How does she figure?” Kaia asks. We’re both a little bit fascinated that Tomas got his Goddess gift. Neither of us have gotten ours yet. Hell, Nathan hadn’t gotten his yet and he’s the oldest of all of us in our birthing group. Maybe now that I’m mated to Tomas, I’ll get mine too. “She said that it made his body harder to harm. It wasn’t only his muscles that strengthened, but his entire body. It was hard to get the needle and thread through his skin and organs, so he’s g
Red Rover Chapter 60 - Nyx
***TRIGGER WARNING - Non-consensual touching. Read at your own discretion***I had started to eat the food that was given to me by the two furies, but after a handful of bites, I detected a building aftertaste. I tried to wash it down with the water that they gave me and immediately realized that everything that was given to me was drugged. I immediately threw it across the room. I wanted to run to the bathroom to try and vomit it up, but my shackles didn’t reach that far. Instead, I leaned over the side of the bed and tried to vomit everything up there. Didn’t matter. I soon began to loose consciousness, falling to the floor, only missing the puddle of vmit by inches due to the shackles still on my wrists. As my vision starts to go black, the two furies walk back into the room. “Ack! Really, human? You had to get sick?” Magaera says the second she sees the vomit beneath me. “She is our queen, Magaera! Show some respect!” Alecto says, coming to put me back on the bed.
