Raf entered Bee silently with Ember who was also quiet.
"Bee…she's not gone." Raf said. Ember smiled.
"You heard her didn't you?" she asked. Raf nodded.
"She called me an…elf. Is she serious?"
"She passed her powers unto you because she knew the balance would be broken. She could only trust you." Raf smiled to himself.
Back at the base he didn't tell everyone immediately. Though eventually he did have to tell everyone after Ember announced that he should start training. Of course Miko was jealous.
"Why does the cool stuff always happen to everyone but me?" she asked.
"She doesn't understand that the balance rests in your hands. But don't worry; I'll guide you along your way." Esmeralda's voice filled Raf's mind.
"I wouldn't have any other guide." He trained and eventually became a strong elf. He may be less powerful than most but at least he can keep the balance. Guided by Ember and Esmeralda's spirit; he knew that nothing will stop him from keeping that last promise to her. One night he chuckled in bed.
"What's so funny?" Esmeralda questioned.
"Just the things people do for love." He sighed and drifted off to sleep; his mind was still on Esmeralda.
Okay I swear I'm done now. And I'm not saying that Raf's in love with Esmeralda; he loves her like a sister or a close friend. :P
