Chapter Nine : Revenge For Heart break

"I think tomorrow, we should start heading out of here and start going to the Venus lighthouse. Starting a few days ago, only weird things have happened to us. I think it is just best if we go. There is no reason for us to stay here." Isaac said as he was in one of the rooms of the Inn with his best friend Garet. He began to pack away all the items and clothes he would need to complete his journey, "What do you think Garet?"

Ever since dinner Garet had been acting a little bit different. He became quieter which was unlike his usual loud self who was making stupid comments on every thing he saw, but the other three adepts always found him somewhat of entertainment. He dragged his bodyweight around like he was a zombie, so tired that he can no longer move properly. He finally responded, "Whatever you say boss. I'll just go with the flow." He plopped onto his bed, the mattress bouncing up and down due to the large sudden impact of bodyweight.

"Alright then. We'll set out after breakfast, we also have to speak to Babi before we leave. we promised too." Isaac curled a smile on his face. He got up and opened the drawers, which revealed an assortment of items. He threw them into his brown leather bag not even checking what the items were exactly.

Garet began to whisper something that was barely audible. Isaac couldn't understand what he was saying, "What are you trying to say Garet?" Isaac asked not bothering to turn around and look at him. He continued to whisper in the same tone, "Maybe you're just too tired to speak. Go to bed." Isaac responded back still not being able to hear what Garet was trying to say.

Isaac heard Garet approach him, the sound of sole of his boots pounded on the wooden floor. Isaac turned around and saw Garet towering over him. Garet extended out his arm, his large hand wrapping around Isaac's neck, he began to squeeze. In natural reaction Isaac put his hands on Garet trying to pull him off. Isaac's lungs were being pushedin, not enough oxygen was able to get through the passageways. He began to choke and gasp for air. Garet then picked up Isaac, still holding him by the neck.

"Garet what are you doing? I can't breath, let go!" Isaac managed to get out. After he said those words he began to cough again. If this was going to continue he was going to suffocate he death he needed to do something to get out of this madman's grasp.

"Want to know what you did? I'm doing this because I'm sick of you! All you do is make me secondary, you laugh at everything I do. You just treat me like a piece of trash.a nd I thought we were friends. Then you knew that I liked Mia then I come to get you two to go down for sinner and I see you hitting on her! So now you're trying to steal the only person that made me feel special inside!" Garet roared back as he continued to raise his arm Isaac getting higher into the air, he made his grip tighter making the oxygen passageways even more close together.

Isaac couldn't even cough up any air. He closed his eyes and tried to concentrate, trying to forget that his brain is soon going to stop working since not enough oxygen is getting to it. The only way he would live is if he used psynergy on his best friend. His frame began to glow a golden aura as he summoned the powers of the great Earth to save him. The inn began to shake tremendously, making everyone fall off of his or her feet. Isaac summoned an Earthquake. Garet was startled by this and fell to the ground letting go of Isaac.

"I didn't do anything with Mia except comfort her!" Isaac shouted back, he put his hand on his neck a golden energy surrounded his hand. The wound that had formed, all the pain he had felt had been vanquished thanks to his cure spell.

"And she felt that she can trust you because you obviously lead her on!" Garet barked back, flames in his eyes. Isaac was so shocked to see Garet act like this it was not him. It's like something else is controlling him. Isaac thought to himself. Usually Garet, despite people being slightly intimidated by his size, was a nice and gentle being not wanting to hurt anyone. and had good morals, but just didn't have a lot of wit. Now he's just acting in a rage, being reckless and not caring that he's destroying a friendship which he use to praise.

"Ragnorak!" Isaac shouted as he refused for Garet to go on the offensive again. He extended out his two arms, white energy beginning to form. Shortly it became a sword he launched it right at Garet.

He jumped to the side, the sword of energy smashing into the wall, completely destroying it. The concrete shattered, crumbling down on the floor, smoke rised from the blast. Isaac growled in frustration, as he would hoped it would of hit him and maybe knocked him out cold. Then he could figure out what to do with this predicament, but that obviously wasn't going to happen.

Garet extended his arm out, flames appeared in his eyes. A red aura surrounded his frame as he summoned the power of Mar's that was within him. Flames began to swirl around his arm, "Volcano!" He shouted. The column of flames shot out right at Isaac. Garet used all of his psynergetic strength to use his spell, to make it a much more powerful version than it was meant to be.

Isaac jumped out of the way he fell on his feet and began to crawl towards the bed, he could use it as a defense to summon another spell that may paralyze his foe. He would never imagine fighting his friend, especially like this. There would be a petty fight once in a while but never a fight where it could mean life or death.

Another column of flames were shot out from Garet's arm. This time it hit Isaac right on the spot, immediately his body felt a burning sensation like everything withhim him was being disintegrated into cinder. It felt like the column was going right through him. The blast had shot his frame back at a fast speed. His back had smashed into the drawers, which smashed the wooden structure into only many piles of wood. He felt like his back had cracked in half. All of his body was in pain he was not able to move or even summon a spell to cure himself. Before he knew it another Volcano attack came right at him, he tried to move out of the way but he couldn't since every time he tried to move a muscle he felt that burning sensation throughout his frame. This time his body smashed through the wall, it crumbling down before him only becoming a pile of debris. He began to fall down towards the ground outside.
