After the fight I just stay sitting on the floor, Alibaba had thrown himself on top of Kassim to cry and I just caressed his hair gently.
Aladdin said that they will never be alone and had given form to the rukh, they were the people that had died.
And imagine what I was doing? Yeah, crying.
Madness came to my side and whispered
"Honey, we are low on magoi, it's time that we go" she said suddenly looking at Kassim
"He did have that sexy evil aura, shame we can?" and she giggled
She was going to get chatty and this was not the moment so I unequipped Zaphiro. I needed to tend to the wounded as fast as possible.
I asked for people that weren't as wounded to come and help me with them.
I just got up and started walking aimlessly when all of sudden thousands of rukhs were scrambling away from the main body that remained in the sky.
Kids, women, and men they were going to the people, hugging, kissing and some laughing them. It was a nostalgic and at the same time it was endearing. I couldn't stop crying it felt like being stabbed with jealousy and it also made my heart warm at the encounters.
In the battlefield Aladdin was telling Alibaba all about the rukh and the people not leaving them.
Morgianna shouted and lunged to hug them.
An exhausted Sinbad said "Magi's are amazing huh"
Aladdin was searching from right to left for someone when Morgianna asked
"What is it Aladdin?" with some tears still escaping
"Have you seen big sis?" he said with an anguished look "I need to tell her something"
Alibaba that was still immersed in taking care of Kassim body said
"She left a while ago, she was mumbling about healing" he said slowly lifting his face
Aladdin gave a sulky face and stayed silent
The next days I was in the clinic, like old times, I barely slept; I ate almost nothing and secluded myself when I was not taking any patients.
I was grumpy, for a lot of things, but the root of it all were my feelings, I felt lost. Solomon voice had been repeating endlessly in my head "Stay with him, Stay with him" he was driving me crazy. At some point I actually thought that it was Madness, finally slipping out of my control.
And once again a dreadful day came.
People were shouting that the Kou Empire came to kill everyone and although it did made me react a little inside; I just kept on tending to the injured. Even Mara was tired of me
"Can you tell me what's happening with you at least?" she pleaded
"Like I said a thousand times it's nothing" I dismissed at her while sewing a wound in an old man thigh.
"You can deceive me with your bullshit" she said angry
I winced, knowing where it was going
"You think that I don't know you?" she said while pointing me with her finger
I raised an eyebrow "Look Mara, its complicated" I said while cutting the thread and cleaning the wound
"I'm having problems but you can't help me, no one can" I said getting up and passing beside her
"Oh no you can't pretend we are family and dismiss me like this" she said fuming and following me
"Look I get it, I just can't" I stopped and turned around so we could be face to face
"YES, YES YOU CAN, I'M YOUR SISTER, THAT'S WHAT FAMILY DO, HELP EACH OTHER" she said while slightly punching me shoulder
"I can't play family right now Mara" I answered her while getting annoyed
"Go with your husband and your kids" I said nonchalantly
Without further notice she slapped me hard turning my head, when I saw her again she was angry red, and disappointment was visible through her face, tears were streaming down her face "You can be an asshole when you want, you know that right?"
She left me there, gripping my cheek.
Sinbad appeared on the corner of the clinic and said "I was waiting for you, didn't want to intrude" with a serious gaze
"What do you want?" I said while rolling my eyes. One jerk after the other, this is just not my day
"You need to leave this country and come with us" He said while gripping my left hand
"What?" I said with confusion written all over my face
"The Kou Empire is coming, and they won't allow anyone that could harness power to be kept alive" His gaze was intense and he said everything carefully
"So? I don't have power and I don't plan on leaving" I answered him while brushing his hand away
"You don't understand, the people here look up to you, the one that helped trough the darkest moment in their life" his gaze and his speech were logical
"But I can't just leave, there are people that need me here" I said finally coming to my senses
"There's no time" He said
"Please Me just…" and darkness surrounded me
When I woke up I was in a bed and I had the constant sensation of moving backwards and onward, like when you are drunk and the world spins around you.
I saw a window nearby with some curtains shutting it up. I opened it and saw water, everywhere. I looked around the room and notice there was an incense lamp near the bed, and some herbs were burning inside.
I've been kidnapped! AND DRUGGED! Everything was being red flags in my head, until in the door appeared a worried Morgianna
I had all my guards up, maybe she was part of this scheme, or maybe she didn't knew anything, but I had to be cautious
"Mika, you are up, how are you feeling?" Said with sympathy
"Honestly?" I said "I don't know, what's going on?" I was confused and tired and for some reason my left hand was hurting
"Ah Sinbad said something about it, Alibaba just woke up too, maybe you can talk with Ja'far he can tell you everything" She was being chatty for some reason
So I just gave her the evil eye. Real mature Mika.
We found everyone on the top and Ja'far proceed to explain Alibaba about his position and what Sinbad had decided
"But, what about me?" I said looking extremely confused "I'm not a noble, and people are not my plaything"
"Sinbad believes you are an asset, and Aladdin insisted in bringing you" he said with some exasperation
"I'm sorry Sis" Said the little Magi
"I still don't get it" I said going to the border and realizing there was an island appearing on the horizon
"That's Sindria" Said a Masrur that all of sudden was beside me
"Oh" was all I could muster; I was confused, annoyed, angry and maybe a little horny. Yeah, who would have known hahahaha?
Masrur looked at me like he could feel it too, and it made me a little self-conscious of my hidden desire.
When we reached the city thousands of people said
"Welcome to Sindria"
