Lost and Found
A/N Here's more. I hope people like
It was late morning and Izz was at the beach.
Elisa and the others were there too having fun along with a pinic seeing it was Izz's birthday.
Elisa knew he was feeling a little better after last night when he'd told the others why he felt sad on his birthday because he missed his parents but now they understood why he felt sad on his birthday.
"You okay brother?
You seem a little happier..... since last night." Elisa told him.
Izz nodded.
"A little but...... we don't have a family anymore.
We're alone in this world." he answered touching a charm bangle Elisa had gotten him with a charm on it that Carley had gotten for it for him.
"I don't know Izzard.
Maybe you feel that way but sometimes I don't feel that way with our friends around.
You need to learn to open up and trust others like our friends." the female Psammead said leaving him alone for a little while but then he saw Leah run up to him.
"What's going on?" Izz asked her.
"You have to come see what David found." she answered as he followed her to a cave.
Izz gasped seeing what was inside it. It was a Psammead with soft brown fur with green snail like eyes, rat like whiskers and slender.
"You know him, don't you?" Carley asked him.
"I do.
His name's Makai J Nassicus, a relative of Elisa and me.
But how did he get to your world from Psammeadis?
He has no magic, I think." Izz answered her as he saw wounds and cuts over his nephew's body. Elisa knew how worried he was about Makai but watched as Leah picked him up gently as not to hurt him.
"We should go before anybody sees Makai." David said as the others agreed........
Elisa watched as Leah had the first aid kit as she was in her room. Makai was lying on her bed on his back so he wouldn't be hurt further but she wondered how he got hurt like that as she heard soft moaning from the Psammead teen.
"Sorry about that." she said to him softly.
Izz was with Carley and David listening to music on his MP3 player.
He wondered how Makai had gotten here but hoped he was okay as David was sketching.
Elisa was waiting for Leah to come back with idioine.
She saw his eyes open.
"E-Elisa?
What's going on?
Where am I?
Who's she?" the Psanmmead teen asked scared pointing at Leah.
"Makai it's okay.
She's my friend along with her bother David and her best friend Carley. I know they're human but nice ones who don't care that we don't have magic but treat us as friends as well as family.
You have to trust me." Elisa reassured him as he groaned in pain.
"Relax Makai.
I-I'm just trying to help you.
You were badly hurt when we found you at the beach.
Just like Izz when Carley found him but she nursed him back to full health and became friends." Leah told him as she began to clean his wounds.
"My uncle's here?
That's good.
I was scared escaping." he told them as Elisa gasped.
"You...... mean from the human who took my and Izz's parents?" she said to him.
He nodded to them in reply.
"He tried to make me grant his heart's desire but I couldn't do that so he hurt me but luckily I managed to escape. I hope Izz is okay.
He wasn't the same after what happened." he told her as Elisa agreed but saw him in pain.
"You need to rest, okay Makai?
It'll help you return to full strength." Elisa heard Leah say as they left.
Makai then fell asleep............
But Izz was worried about Makai.
He knew that he'd escaped from the human that had taken his and Elisa's parents but felt sorry for him. He knew that Makai felt the way he was feeling, a little scared, alone and wanting his family but he felt mad that his had been taken from him and Elisa.
"It just isn't fair!
He'd better not have hurt him.
But mayve Leah's been helping him." he thought smiling sadly showing his teeth which looked like fangs but never really had bitten anyone apart from Elisa and when he'd first met Leah and the others along with using them for defending himself. He then went upstairs to Leah's room and opened the door softly.
Makai was asleep but whimpering in his sleep.
Tears were in Izz's eyes at that.
"Izzard what're you doing?
You know Leah hates it when others are in her room without her knowing.
I know how badly you want to be with Makai but he needs to heal." Elisa said to her brother.
"Help me lift him.
I'm moving into mine and Carley's room.
I know Leah might be mad but it's better for him.
He needs me right now.
He's been through a lot." he told his sister.
She sighed and helped him.
He smiled putting Makai in Izz's bed.
"Thanks Elise." Izz said to his sister as he saw her leave as he sat on Carley's bed waiting for Makai to wake up.
"Hey Izz why is your friend in here?" he heard Carley say coming into their room.
"I..... I" the Psammead tried to say but the words wouldn't come out.
"It's okay Izz, I had a feeling you'd do this.
I saw how you looked when David found Makai in that cave on the beach. It reminded me of when I found you injured and hurt near those rock pools washed up on shore.
You're lucky David didn't throw you into the sea again." she told him.
Izz gasped hearing that.
"B-But why did....... you save me that day?" Izz asked softly.
"Because you were hurt and alone.
I couldn't bear for you to remain there without somebody to care or to love you.
I know you miss your parents Izzard.
I heard you tell Leah and David about it.
But you're not totally alone.
You do have an ohana, family." she answered.
"I-I do?
Where?" the Psammead asked excitedly.
Carley laughed a little at that.
"What's so funny?" he asked.
"They're here in this very house.
Leah, David, Elisa and me.
We could be your family....... if you want." she told him.
Izz looked surprised but smiled.
But before he could answer, he heard David calling for dinner........
"We'll talk more later, okay?" Carley told him as they went downstairs.
