Chapter 11

Authors note: This chapter is all in Aura's P.O.V! So yeah. I did something stupid today. Hey! Should I change my title to "I Went to Far"? Or "Went to Far"? Or should it stay the same?


Aura's P.O.V

I followed Cresselia around a giant bolder. Am I missing something? I looked behind me to see... no one.

"Hey," I said softly. "Where's Lillian and Trina?" Cresselia looked back at me.

"They went the long way. This one is shorter," Cresselia reassured me. I kept flying looking behind me time to time. Are they okay? I couldn't help wondering. It must of shown that I was nervous because Cresselia stop and smirked at me.

"Why do you worry about them so much?" She asked. I looked back behind me for the 100th time.

"Well, they are my friends," I explained. Cresselia laughed at me.

"That thing is your friend?" She laughed. I stared at her.

"What the breeze are you talking about?" I wondered out loud. Cresselia shook her head and started flying again.

"I didn't know you would want to be friends with a dark fay," She sneered. "I didn't think you were that stupid!" I felt as if I was hit out of the sky by a vine.

"Go back and die if you want," Cresselia called over her shoulder. "Go die with your stupid and dumb friends." Anger wrapped around me. It bubbled over the top. She had gone to far.

"SHUT UP!" I screamed. Wind whipped around and as Cresselia turned around she had to grab on to a branch to not be blown away.

"Don't tell me what to do!" Cresselia ordered. More anger seeped into me.

"NO I WILL TELL YOU WHAT TO DO AND YOU WILL DO IT!" I roared. "NO ONE MAKES FUN OF MY FRIENDS! NO ONE!" Cresselia sent a wave of ice at me, but it got swallowed up in the wind. Cresselia said something that made me even more angry if that was possible.

"Yeah? Well, your friends stink!" I launched myself at her slamming her into a tree. I had wind wrap around her body and squeezed. Cresselia tried to breath but couldn't.

"YOU WENT TO FAR CRESSELIA!" I screamed. Cresselia's face was turning purple with lack of oxygen. Suddenly, I realized what I was doing. I am killing her! I immediately stopped. Cresselia gasped and leaned into the tree for support.

"Sorry," I muttered and flew away as fast as I could. I ended up at a stream who knows where. I put a hand to my face. What am I becoming? I asked myself. I sank slowly to the ground. Mud seeping into my dress.

"Are you okay?" A raspy voice asked. I looked up to see Cresselia. She was rubbing her throat. Slowly, she sat next to me.

"Never better," I muttered. Cresselia nodded. We sat there in silents. Finally Cresselia said,

"Sorry about being mean," she apologized. "I'm rude when I meet people." I looked over at her.

"It's fine," I told her. Another awkward silents. "Do you have any brothers or sisters?" Cresselia flashed a smile.

"I have a little brother," She stated. "But I don't know where he is." Clouds and breezes! Can I ever say the right thing?

"I have a brother," I said quickly. "His name is Toga." Cresselia smiled again.

"That's great-" She was cut off by a giant crunching sound. My eyes started to bug. Cresselia's was bugging too.

"What was that?" I asked in a raspy whisper. CRUNCH! I shrank trying to bury myself in mud. CRUNCH! It was getting closer. Suddenly, a booming voice broke my ear drum.

"Ash says fairies are real!" CRUNCH! "I am going to catch one!" CRUNCH! "And there one is!" I didn't bother looking up. Cresselia started to fly up in the air.

"Aura!"She hissed at me. "Fly!" I couldn't. Terror pinned my wings together. Fear made me feel sick. Something dark came over my head, slamming Cresselia into the mud.

Suddenly, the ground under us started moving. It made me fall to my back and start sliding backward. I tried to get up but couldn't.

What are you doing! A voice inside my head screeched. Get Cresselia and fly out of there! I shot up and flew over to the limp Cresselia. I started to fly up with her when something shut the only entrance out. I hit the ground again and I heard a terrible rip!

Pain agonized my wings. I started to see stars. I tried with the last bit of energy I had to have a strong wind to push the top off. But nothing came.

What is going on? I thought. Tears streaming down my face. The pain started to build and I blacked out.
