Learning To Trust

A/N. This is another Five Children and IT fic I felt like writing. I got the idea last weekend because I had the flu but I'm still recovering from it. It's about trying to open up to others even though you're afraid or if you live in another world and you don't know a lot like Morrick. I hope people enjoy this.

Morrick woke up at the crack of dawn in Leah's room.

He was a Psammead teenager but was shy and nervous.

Even though he and his father Izz along with his sister Elisa were part of a family with Leah, her friend and her brother David, he felt like he couldn't trust.

Izz and the others had tried to get him to open up but he never did.

Elisa looked worried as he drank from the juice carton.

"What's going on?" he asked her.

"It's Izz.

Come with me." She told him.

They went into Carley's room.

Izz was in bed beside Carley.

She was in her Psammead form.

Izz or Izzard J Nassicus as known to the Arian Knights in Aria was Morrick's father.

They'd been reunited a month ago.

Morrick heard him coughing and sneezing up a storm.

"What happened to him?

Why is he like this?

He's not.... is he?" the teenage Psammead asked scared.

"No Morrick he won't die but he has a very nasty cold which will make him weak until somebody heals him with magic." Elisa replied.

Morrick sighed with relief.

"Actually you have to do it.

Only a Psammead can heal another Psammead when they're inflicted with a cold." she told him.

"Let me guess, it's not a Psammead cold is it?" Morrick asked her.

"It's.... a human one." Elisa answered.

They then went back down stairs into the kitchen and found Leah there.

"Hey guys you're up early.

You probably couldn't sleep either huh?" she said to them.

"It's Izz.

He's sick with a flu bug.

That's why he was coughing up a storm last night sleeping.

I hope he's okay." Elisa said.

Leah looked worried at that.

"dDoes Carley know this?

She probsably does.

I hope he'll be okay." she thought making pan cakes.

But somebody was watching them.

It was the Angel of Darkness's son Yashu.

"So these are the guys that defeated my Mom?

They don't look tough to me like Krya said." he thought leaving the house.

Leah noticed Carley was quiet as they walked to school.

"What's wrong?" she asked her.

"It was a vision I had last night.

It was to do with Aria.

The Angel of Darkness's son Yashu is angry and wants revenge.

We've gotta stop him before he does something bad for both worlds." she told her.

Leah nodded.

She seemed worried hearing that.

Brittany and the other Anime Club members wondered what was wrong with Leah but she shook it off.

"It's nothing guys." she said softly.

When they returned home. they found Elisa was worried.

"What's wrong?" Leah asked her as she was on her shoulders.

"It's Morrick.

He locked himself in your room and won't come out!

I've tried everything I could think of." she told her as they went to Carley's room.

Izz was awake in bed but was weak, very weak.

His grey fur was white and he had a massive head ache.

He had been coughing a lot today along with sneezing and using tissues.

"How're you?" Leah asked him.

"Still worse.

I'm more worried about Morrick.

I heard him in Leah's room.

I know what's bugging him.

He feels alone, like he has nobody to count on.

I tried helping him but he exploded, then locked himself in Leah's room." he replied coughing slightly.

"Rest Izz.

We'll handle him." Carley said as they left the room.

She then transformed into Ogre Child and broke down the door.

"Thanks." Leah said.

"You're welcome." she said transforming back into herself.

"Morrick...... we just wanna help." Leah told him but he was curled up in a ball asleep.

They picked him up gently and went downstairs......
