A/N: Hey peoplez sorry to the few people who are reading this story for not updating for so long I had to read the most boring book in the world for school and ff.net wasn't letting me upload properly. *sigh* Now I'm almost done with it but I doubt anyone really cares to hear about me complain over a stupid book so hears the chapter Oh and could someone help me come up with a better title I really don't like Gone!
Chapter 8:
"NO!!!" Gavin shouted and grabbed for the jewel with both hands, tripped and fell. Daine still in falcon form rolled to the floor and flickered back to her true self.
The jewel hit the ground and shattered; the Gift trapped in it exploded into the air like a black geyser. The geyser swirled towards Numair and wrapped itself around his chest. It began to spin, lifting him until he hovered inches over the floor, spread over him with a sparkling burst of shine and dulled into him. Slowly Numair's magic set him down leaving him glowing. His dark eyes opened, and he stood up feeling his power returning to him. For a moment he didn't remember what had happen or where he was. He looked around and everything came back, the scorched and burning floor, broken objects, and birds flying out of the windows. Continuing to look around he saw Gavin on floor where he had fallen trying to push himself up and then, he noticed Daine laying face down on the floor, barely moving except for ragged breathing.
Gavin still laying on the floor weary and bleeding propped himself up on his elbows and saw Numair "No, NO!" Gavin whispered through clenched teeth and quickly stood up. Shaking with rage and weariness he shouted "I should have killed you when I had the chance!" With that the air surrounding him began to quiver and gleam with an eerie green light. He raised his hands above his head then thrust the green air out towards Numair.
Numair blocked the attack with an invisible shield; the green ball hit the shield and dissolved in flames. Numair raised his hands before him and from his fingers came a shower of arrows that flew towards Gavin. The arrows bounced off a shining wall in front of Gavin but each one caused a thin line to go across the wall getting bigger with each arrow.
"Gavin," Numair shouted" Give up while you have the strength I can feel your Gift failing you little by little. You'll be brought to the king!"
"No," Gavin sneered, "You are not taking me to that stupid, pathetic human being you call your king!" Gleaming hot jelly appeared around Numair and caught him by surprise burning his skin. He stumbled backwards in the pain of it then the jelly melted off of him. Fixing Gavin with a glare as burning as the jelly was, Numair sent vines that entangled themselves around Gavin and raised hot welts wherever they touched him.
"That's it, Arram" Gavin hissed. His eyes seemed to change as he raised his hands palms up to the ceiling then gradually brought them back to his sides. The air screamed; slowly the ground shook and soon became a rough vibration. Suddenly a flash of lightning crashed through the ceiling and into the floor. With a sickening crack the floor split and eroded spreading towards the unconscious girl. What was left of the ceiling shook. Parts of the ceiling rained down on the mages. Rocks that would have killed Gavin just dissolved around him as he seemed to be in a trance. Numair began to panic knowing he wasn't strong enough to stop the unnatural earthquake.
