Chapter 6: Nanth's Entrance
_____
Nanth began pacing around the valley. "That Arian…he is something if he can lives that long without the nutrition of psynergy! But once I return…I shall defeat him…and return him the favor he had done to me so long ago!"
"Nanth!" Mia cried. "Wake up! Psynergy is not meant to be used to rule over others! We are to be friends to them, and using them as a symbiote, not as a pawn!"
"FOOL!" Nanth cried in wrathful anguish. "Psynergy…they are meant for us humans to be controlled and released!"
"Mia is right!" Isaac cried. "It is people like you that forced us to seal psynergy. We will stop you as long as we're alive and unhurt!"
Nanth stared at Isaac, his deep blue eyes seems to penetrate through Isaac's soul. He whispered slowly, "I would have kill you, had I not respect and admire your bravery and strength. But do not ignore the truth. Psynergy cannot be treated like friends. If we release them and do not have control over them, they would overcome our power and in return swallow us. This is why we Akelians must rule them, and all. We must prevent people like you and Arian from liberating Alchemy."
Nanth then look at the sun. "Ah…the time has come for me to return to the world. I will release you from the bondages when I return. Djinn…or whatever you like to be called, come back and return to where you belong!" With a sudden swishing movement, a seemingly weightless, white, glowing net materializes out of thin air, and suddenly the djinn vaporized, their energy and souls trapped within the net.
Nanth picked up the net and start running into the Heaven Rock.

"Isaac? Isaac?"
Isaac woke up to find Mia bending over him. It seems like he had fallen asleep from tiredness and pain. He looked and the ropes were still binding them from movement, but it seems like Mia, Jenna, and some of the others were already out of their bond. Mia was working slowly on the rope around him slowly with a pocketknife.
"How…" Isaac asked with a headache, "how did you guys got out?"
With a final thrust, Mia successfully cut through the rope. "Well, it's Garet's idea sort of. After Nanth was gone, he quickly crawls toward one of the sharper stones over there," Mia pointed, "and he start rubbing toward it until he got out. After that he used the rope to free Jenna, and me, and the others…"
"Garet had done a smart thing for once!" Jenna chuckled cheerfully.
"How long had passed after Nanth left?" Isaac asked alarmingly.
"Um…" Jenna
thought, "about 2 hours…"
"We gotta go!" Isaac
shouted. "We must prevent him from
capturing the full force of Alchemy!"
