Everybody Needs A Friend
A/N This fic idea was in my head all day today so I had to let it out.
I had to write this because I haven't wrote any Five Children and It fics in a while but this one is about friendship and that you don't have to be alone as long as you have people who care about you.
I hope people like this.
It was an normal day at the beach in Baltimore but somebody was feeling a little lonely. It was a Psammead with soft grey fur, snail like eyes, a tubby stomach like a spider's and the hands and feet of a monkey.
He had came to the beach from Aria a mystical kingdom that only some people knew about but he was injured and tired but was resting in the sand but hoped that somebody would come soon.
But he was unaware that Fate would bring him something special........
Leah smiled as she along with David and her best friend Carley got out of the car.
David was carrying the picnic basket while his and Leah's Mom parked the car but Leah laughed as she helped her brother carry the basket to the spot they wanted but the nineteen year old noticed that Carley seemed to be distracted but understood. Carley had moved to Calvert County because she'd gotten a scholarship at the college in the Music department but wasn't starting until Spring along with Leah.
"You okay?
You're thinking about Aria, aren't you?" Leah said.
It snapped the twenty one year old out of her thoughts.
"Yeah Leah I was.
Ogre Child said that Izz had left Aria and was on Earth somewhere.
But I..... have this feeling....." she answered.
Leah nodded in reply.
Aria was Carley's mystical kingdom she had created and had brought to life but she and Leah always went there just to hang out or to help the Ogreix Warriors and the Arian Knights to protect Aria.
"You have a feeling Izz could be here, right?" Leah asked her.
"Yes he could be.
Psammeads love the beach because of the sand.
I hope he's okay." she answered her as David joined them as they went surf boarding.....
Later as Carley was taking a walk and using her symbol cane, she saw something by the rock pools.
She gasped realising it was a Psammead.
"I knew he was here!
Jen will be relieved." she thought gently picking him up.
She was worried by Izz's injuries especially the nasty one on his furry head but she could heal him remembering things she'd learned from Skye in Aria as she saw Leah alone eating which made the older girl smile.
Her friend was always hungry but Leah gasped as she saw Izz in the girl's arms.
"Wow he looks really beat up.
He must've been hurt badly from helping Jen and the others try to stop Lora." she said as Carley nodded.
She wrapped blankets around him gently and put him in her back pack as not to hurt him further but on the way home, David noticed the two girls were quiet and wondered what was wrong but they wouldn't answer......
Hours later in Carley's room, Carley and Leah saw Izz's eyes open slowly.
"Everything..... hurts.
What..... happened?" he muttered but gasped seeing Carley.
"Relax Izzard.
We won't hurt you.
I found you lying near the rock pool out cold but you look worse for wear.
Why did you leave Aria?" she answered softly as Izz smiled weakly.
"T-Thank you Carley.
My name is Izzard J Nassicus but I like to be called Izz.
How do you know about Aria?
Only a few people know about the kingdom." the Psammead said softly.
"I know you already Izz but as for your other question, let's just say I know Ogre Child very well." she answered as Leah smiled.
But Izz seemed nervous at Leah but his fear made his injuries worse.
"Izz it's okay!
You can trust Leah.
She's my best friend in the world, well my only one." Carley told him.
"Hello Leah." he replied as Leah frowned seeing the wound on his head.
"It must be why he's acting this way.
But his wounds look very bad.
I know we can do this." she thought as she heard David call.
It was dinner time but Izz looked nervous seeing they were leaving the room.
"Don't worry we'll be back later, I promise.
Rest okay Izz?" Carley said softly as he relaxed.
Leah noticed her friend locking the door so David or Leah's mother wouldn't go in and find Izz there because they wouldn't understand unless they explained to them.
But Izz noticed Carley sounded like Ogre Child when she talked.
"It is her.
I won't let Jen down and keep her safe from Lora." he thought sleeping........
