Troye took a closer look at her. "Lise... why do you have wings?"
He asked. Lise gasped and felt behind her. She sighed and tapped
her ruby necklace twice and the wings disappeared. "That's a story
for another time." She said. Troye blinked and attempted to get up,
and grimaced while he did so. He was very sore from volleyball
practice last night. Say, where were they? They weren't at the dorm
he and Lise shared for sure.
"I gain another Artist, Nyx. If I don't keep teaching artists...
the worlds are thrown out of balance." Solia replies, purposely
avoiding Troye's question.
Nyx felt her eyes narrow slightly but didn't press
anymore.She'll give more information when ready.Till then
wait.Don't want to make her mad at you.She thinks to herself
while falling back behind the rest of the crowed.Huh and to
think a few minutes ago I was hiding from my step father.She
muses to herself with a small smile.
Troye looked at the town and cocked his head. What was happening?
He glanced over and saw Sunbreak, and peered curiously at her for a
moment before waving. "Hello there!" He said and gave one of his
dashing smiles.mHe looked over at Lise, who was carefully studying
Solia. She had ignored Troye's question, hadn't she? "So, what
are we fighting?" She asked.
A wolf-like creature with red-gold fur and blue horns bounds up to
Solia and the others before she can answer. "Solia! Zia's destroyed
another! Please, you have to come, Fell can't talk her out of it!"
She cries, her tail curling anxiously.
"Liea, I can't go, I have to stay with them. Have Fell try again,
please."" Solia says quietly, looking out over the town again.
"If I leave you, Zia will come after you. It's what she wants. If I
leave, you all are considered fair game for her. Those are the
rules." Solia replies quietly.
"Maybe we can all stay on same place for some time. We are not
going to wander around. Maybe we dont have powers but we still can
be strong.. " Keeshe said. This was really best thing to do now but
obviously they are not just going to stay here. When Solia leaves
they are immidiatly going to scatter around.
Sunbreak smiled back at the strange monkey and raised her hood and
waved in similar manner. Normal horse would propably not be able to
do that but she isnt normal horse after all! Her bone structure
allows her to do alot of things! "Monkey is right! I want to know
what we are fighting too! Can you tell us when you come back from
the fight? Or can we all watch you fight that would just be..
well.." She suddely stood up on her hind legs and clapped her two
hoofs "Kaboom! then she dropped on ground again
"We can take care of ourselves." She said before looking at Troye.
"Most of us anyway..." She mumbled and Troye made a face at her. He
then glanced at Solia. Zia huh? He wondered is she was as pretty as
Solia. Or why Solia was so worried about her. Hm. Troye then
glanced at Sunbreak again. "That's a new one. I've never been
called a monkey before..." He said.
"It's not that I don't trust your abilities it's just... there's
only a few of you and Zia... she's fierce and strong. She'll do
whatever it takes to kill and destroy. And you all will eventually
stand in her way. She'll try and get rid of you as quickly as
possible. Zia will distract me and then kill you... without your
powers fully developed there's not much you can do against her..."
Solia runs a hand through her curls.
"Amali is fighting her, if that helps. Trying to hold her off."
Liea mentions.
Lise pondered this for a moment. "So are we just going to sit
here?" Troye asked, stepping forward. Lise looked at him with a
curious look on her face for a moment before standing next to him.
"We're all just sitting ducks here. Can't we do anything at all?"
She asked. She hated feeling uselss, and she knew Troye did too.
Nyx sat quietly letting the others talk.The man and woman had a
point.We are sitting ducks technically.She cocks her head at
what Solia said."Is there a safe place outside of the void we are
currently in or no?"She asks quietly.
Felix streched their wings and body, "Does this mean we fight?"
They chimed in
Their eyes burned red and her looks changed slightly.
"Im always willing to fight." They smirked
"No. Zia can travel anywhere she wants. While I'm in the void, she
can't enter without permission." Solia replies. "And I don't want
anyone getting hurt, no fighting."
"So then we wait..." Lise mumbled, sitting down. Troye sighed and
reached behind him for his backpack, which he remembered having
just earlier as he was leaving volleyball practice. "That's
strange. Where is it..." He mumbled, looking around.
Nyx just hums at this and closes her eyes.Even though she looked
like it,she wasn't really going to sleep but instead using this
time to let the others talk while she sort out the info she had
already gathered.
"Solia, please! Why don't you just take them with you? Zia still
can't technically directly attack them with you nearby, right?"
Liea says desperately. "And they can help you!"
